地道美语听力播客649: 打赌（双语）

Peter: Look at this! I just won 2,000 smackaroos!

皮特：快来看，我刚刚赢得2000美元。

Angela: Where did you get all that money?

安吉拉：你从哪儿赢得的那些钱呀?

Peter: I won it betting on the game last night. I placed a small wager with high odds and won big.

皮特：我下赌注赢得了一场比赛。下了一个小赌注，赢得高回报。

Angela: Wow, I always put money in the pools at work, but I’ve never won anything like $2,000.

安吉拉：哇!我也总下赌注，但是从来没有赢得像2000美元那么多的奖金。

Peter: I’ll introduce you to my bookie if you want to do some serious betting. But I warn you: he only deals in high-stakes wagers, not penny ante bets.

皮特：如果你真的想投一些赌注，那我到可以把我的赌注经纪人给你认识，不过我得警告你：他只做高风险的赌注，不做小钱儿的赌注。

Angela: You bet through a bookie? You must do some serious gambling. I don’t think that’s for me.

安吉拉：你通过赌注经纪人下赌注?那你一定是玩大的赌博，这个有点不适合我。

Peter: You can’t win big, if you don’t play big. I’ve just placed a bet on this weekend’s game.

皮特：你不投入的大点，怎么能够赢得大的呢?我刚刚对这周末的比赛下了赌注。

Angela: But the Minnesota McQ’s are the favorites by a wide margin.

安吉拉：但是大家很看好明尼苏达州的McQ队。

Peter: There’s a 10-point point spread. Come on, what do you say? Are you in or out? I’ve just put $500 on it.

皮特：有一个10分的分差，考虑一下怎么样?你是下注还是不下注?我刚刚在这场比赛上投了500美元。

Angela: That’s too rich for my blood. I think I’ll stick to the minor leagues.

安吉拉：对我来说，有点太多了。我想我还是紧跟小联盟比赛吧。
