Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XCIV: From Ghost to Hakstol and all things in between

[FlyerNutter]

what's $265 these days? one nice steak dinner with your wife or girlfriend?

no big loss.

All he needs is the Oilers to win tonight, the Devils to win tonight, (granted both on the road and with their opponents facing elimination), and Tampa to win tonight at home and then lose Game 7 in Toronto.

That's not an outrageous gambit for $4300.00.

And if it doesn't hit, he's only actually out a buck. I'd rather have the thrill.

But everyone's different.

Are we eating human tenderloin?

Sweet lord

Hmm…

 

[Flyerfan4life]

I went to the casino once in my life. Cashed out being up 20$.

I’m low key disturbed you are even pondering this. Take the money fool.

this perfectly sums me up when it comes to gambling...

High-end steakhouse these days with wine & tip? Sadly, not much of an exaggeration.

Cash out....then bet $10 on the 4 individual games games you would have needed to win to win that 4 grand.

worst case....yeah you lost the slim chance at the 4 grand. But in tbe end, you will have won 2 bets and you are playing with house money for awhile making more bets.

Maybe if you took your wife AND girlfriend.

Congratulations @Cody Webster. No matter what you do now, there will always be someone on HFboards you will be able to blame

Not cashing out your $265 bet that cost you $1 and letting it ride is why gambling operations can continue to stay in business.

Clearly his wife/gf doesn’t know about this predicament.

figure minimum $60 on food per person, minimum $60 bottle of wine, tax and tip, yeah $260 is pretty much spot on. but i seen all the beautiful shades of beige y’all be composing your plates of in the menu thread so definitions of nice steakhouse might vary greatly.

Depending on how high end you want to go, you can easily drop way more than $260 on a steak dinner for 2 people. Hell, you could top that easily just on one person.

Imagine getting this worked up over a f***ing hockey game.

That's the kind of goal that, after having been scored after someone in a ball hockey league has said "Last goal wins!", it is said "Okay, NEXT goal wins!"

Or the kind that broke Flyers fans' hearts a year or two before I started following.

The only playoff game I went to was against the Rags in, I believe 2014. There was a fight maybe 4 or 5 sections next to where I sat. f*** the rags and their fans

I honestly don’t blame the Rangers fan. You knock my beer up in my face. Shits on you drew first blood.

Just pound em like Kelce and you'll never have this problem. That video of him watching the draft...might as well be taking a shot

This is accurate. There's a place I want to take my wife but I can make a mean-ass Costco steak for a fraction of the price.

Assuming it's just one wine apiece, you'd have perhaps fifty left.

I bought & then cooked half inch strip steaks from Costco recently. They banging. Their meats are the best imo.

 

[Tripod]

We gotta know about the bet....was it cashed out or is it still on?

Barclay Prime:

Wedge Salad
Potato Gratin
5 oz Kobe Striploin
Sauce Au Poivre
Chocolate Tart

$274 for one - WITHOUT wine

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

You know you're in for an expensive meal at a steak restaurant when the menu is a la carte and there are no prices on it.

That'll definitely run you over $250 before booze.
