Is there a point where it's good to play the Lucky's $5 progressive parlay card?

What’s the scoop on Barry Manilow? He’s been playing Vegas for some time and now by mid December he’s done with the Vegas scene altogether?

What impact will the NBA lockout (and possible season cancellation) have on college basketball betting?

How do you feel about hedging a parlay?

Re the recent question on chips - is it legal to sell unused chips? For example, I know someone with a $50 chip from Ceasars, I give him $40 for it and take it to Vegas. Any clouds on that horizon? Thank you. PS - years ago you guys had a pregnant iguana in your offices - whatever happened to iguanettes?

Fezzik Friday: Nationally syndicated (ESPN) sports-talk radio and TV personality Colin Cowherd has been hot with his football picks thus far this season, and he's made several references to moving the lines in Vegas when he gives out his picks on the air. While I didn't hear it first-hand, I'm told bookmaker Jimmy Vaccaro addressed that, saying something to the effect of "Not only does Cowherd not move the line in Vegas, he doesn't even move it in Bristol" (ESPN is headquartered in Bristol, CT). Cowherd has a big audience. Is his media clout strong enough to have an effect, or is Vaccaro right in suggesting he's full of it?

Fezzik Friday: I've spent a lot of time studying sports betting and following advice from many of the industry's top players. Yet I'm losing, and losing big over the first seven weeks of this year's college and pro football seasons. To say I'm discouraged is a monumental understatement. Should I stop and reassess? How do the pros handle a losing streak.

You sometimes reference "good handicapping" and "good betting." Can you elaborate on the distinction and is there a third component (or more) to winning sports betting?

In the book Cullotta, a photo of the "Chicago Outfit circa 1970s" names one man as Joseph "Little Caesar" DiVarco. Just wondered if this person had a connection with Little Caesars, the little dive-of-a-casino on the Strip years back? Enjoyed the book a lot, BTW.

What’s the story behind the changing scores in the USC/Utah game last week and how did the sports books handle it?
