57% WTF?!?!?

Also, its more like going 100-200 for an extended period than 15 losses in a row.

I think "continually" is correct.

"apparently you don't believe in grammar either"

“Continuous” refers to actions which are uninterrupted: “My upstairs neighbor played his stereo continuously from 6:00 PM to 3:30 AM.” Continual actions, however, need not be uninterrupted, only repeated: “My father continually urges me to get a job.”

doh!

continually, continuously (advs.)


Unlike the adjectives, these two are frequently interchangeable, although they preserve some distinctions in much of Standard English. Continuously is used to treat of space: These filaments come continuously from the machine. It is also used of time: It rained continuously for nearly a week; it never ceased. In It rained continually for nearly a week, we usually understand that the rain stopped briefly from time to time.

Because after bankroll management and line shopping, proper spelling and grammar is the third most important aspect of successful sports betting.

Can we please [/hijack]?

This thread has a lot of bad advice, but while the discussion was on topic it also managed to pull in a few fantastic posts. I'd like to see if perhaps it could get some more.

As an aside... As I fill the finite space in my brain up with mathaments and other gambling trash, I find my mind using the space dedicated to Engrish as expendable instead of esoteric trivia. Can anyone corroborate this experience?
