I know i know..... :nono: :shrug:
WARNING WARNING DANGER DANGER bet at your own risk!!! Not responsible for any loss on those bets or from any urge to kick my butt or my nuts... :nutkick :mj122: :box2:

because the limit is so low right now, i cant lose that much... :142smilie

all right, here we go:

Santa Claus 3: OVER 23M -166 (1 unit)

Will be playing over 3000 theaters, first and only christmas movie this year in theater and SC3 has better tracking than the upcoming Casino Royale!!! :scared

 

[Godzilla 1]

1837 - I am not to sure about this one...

With Saw still being out and the Departed. I am thinking that the three movies posted on Pinnacle will be lower than the # posted.

I am going to take the under on all three.:scared

 

[1837]

You see, now the UNDER is the favorite!!! :mj07: :142smilie Still liking the OVER Tracking leans for a 28M+ weekend...

 

[1837]

Borat UNDER 12.5M -131 (2 units)

I like that one too as it will be playing only in around 800 theaters!!! Will need almost 80% of occupancy all weekend long to get that numbers!!!

Be advised, Borat opened under 16 mil-181 and got bet to hell. Pinny took it down and relined it to what ever it is now. With only an 800 count and a strange title, it may not do good, but it is getting good press as being funny as hell. GL.

 

[1837]

Shit Frank, i miss that opening at 16M Damn, i would have lock and load on that one for BIG MONEY!!! :bigun:

 

[frank s.]

maximun was $100. I hesitated whilst checking the count, etc. I watched it move every 2-3 seconds. It was crazy. Then they pulled it!

 

[1837]

Adding 2 more units on OVER 23M at +131

5 units in total: 3 for SC2 OVER 23M and 2 for Borat UNDER 12.5M

Because of last week debacle i wont put anymore units at Pinnacle regardless of line movement and will wait for Olympic line thursday night. Then, we will see...

 

[Godzilla 1]

Remember: Cars comes out Nov 7th People might be going to Video Store & not the Theater.

 

[1837]

Borat UNDER 13M -130 (2 units) WSEX
Borat UNDER 13M +110 (2 units) Pinnacle

Borat is going to be much better than anticipate but with only 837 theaters... 13M is huge and will need a HUGE ratio per theater to beat that...

Playing the middle too with Borat OVER 11.5M -200 (2 units) OLY

If the movie gross between 11.5M and 12.5M we win on all of our bets... :mj09:

 

[1837]

That's it, i'm done for good!!! :sadwave: No way i can continue giving away all my hockey and football profits here... :mj07: I suck big time.... :mj1: :s2:

Borat will gross a 20M+ weekend with just 837 theaters!!! Unbelievable!!! :shocked: It is beating all previous record for less than 1000 theaters opening weekend!

SC3 wont reach 23M

Believe me, i am not coming back here!!!! :s4: :mj16:

Take it easy pal! You are correct though. As an example, I USED to play a lot of poker, here in Vegas and on-line. I got my ass handed to me. I no longer play. I had to swallow my arrogance and pride and admit to myself I just ain't good at it. But before this revelation, I continued to beat my damn head against the freakin wall. An expensive lesson to be sure. Let it go if it is causing you grief.
