Originally from upstate SC but now reside in south Florida. Started gambling after entering the US Army straight out of high school in 1985. After getting out, I spent much of my time at the tables in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. About 10 yrs. ago I started betting on sports, mostly football and boxing. After moving to Florida, became interested in the dogs and ponies. With many horse and dog tracks within an hour drive of the house (the closest one 5 minutes), handicapping became the chore of the day. Now when I'm not brewing beer or ten miles offshore with a rod and reel, I'm digging through speed figures and past performances. I hope everyone has an enjoyable and successful time here at Pregame.com.
