Vegas Silver Story...

Postby Diggin4copper » Wed Feb 15, 2012 7:04 pm

Went to Vegas this past weekend/couple days.. I was in a sports book and there was a horse named Silver Nickel, so I figured what the heck and I bet 5 to win, 5 to place and 5 to show... He came in 2nd.. I should have known.. Doesnt a silver nickle always come in second? Still I won 18 bucks, but I should have known...

If I was you, I'd have jumped on betting that horse as well. How could you pass it up? Nice winning the $18. Keep up the good luck/winning!!

Earlier in the year I was at a horse race and I picked this horse because it had a coin related name and then after I placed the bet I noticed it was from copper penny stables. I won 70 cents:)
