Had another work&life attack. Luckily it didn't last long enough to detrain me , but worked more as a good break so i bounced back stronger, nice!

It is ALWAYS luck. It is 1st year of college probability theory.
Because the odds are never 'fair' , the total of the odds translated to % win probability is always above 100%.
So , the perfect example to illustrate this , is the absolutely even derby, a game that each team has 50% chances to win. The odds from the books will be something like 55% for each, summing 110%. Both teams are treated as favorites, giving less than 1:2 gains ( which would be the fair ). So it is a matter of luck if you do find the winner. But if you repeat the bet forever, you will be losing your money with a 5% ratio.
To make it even more simple, it is about the same as playing red/black on roulette. The book reserves 0 for him. By luck you may win more times than you lose for a given amount of plays, but eventually you will be losing your money with 1/37 ratio , because 1 of the 37 numbers ( zero ) is neither black or red.

PS: If you believe the book is wrong at estimating a percentage, then yes you have a case of betting and winning because of playing 'wise'.  Do you really believe you can estimate the odds better than him?

RDL was strong, would have easily topped season best 3x8@85 if i used mixed grip. Arms i haven't done for about a month so took a step back.

Why hate over-under ( sincere question ) ?
Hook grip made a world of difference for me in power cleans but i never got to get used to it for DL/RDL, i still use over-under. There is a very strong mental link that i am stronger that way and i can't break that link, or if you will, i don't care enough to.
back!!!

Exhausted, body is a wreck, got soreness in places i wouldn't imagine there are muscles.
Delighted, wish i could stay there forever, like every time i go skiing.

^^^Yes, it is great when such bonus-jumping happens out of nowhere.
