地道美語聽力播客649: 打賭（雙語）

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

皮特：快來看，我剛剛贏得2000美元。

Angela: Where did you get all that money?

安吉拉：你從哪兒贏得的那些錢呀?

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

皮特：我下賭注贏得了一場比賽。下了一個小賭注，贏得高回報。

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

安吉拉：哇!我也總下賭注，但是從來沒有贏得像2000美元那么多的獎金。

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賭注，那我到可以把我的賭注經紀人給你認識，不過我得警告你：他只做高風險的賭注，不做小錢兒的賭注。

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

安吉拉：你通過賭注經紀人下賭注?那你一定是玩大的賭博，這個有點不適合我。

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：你不投入的大點，怎么能夠贏得大的呢?我剛剛對這周末的比賽下了賭注。

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蘇達州的McQ隊。

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：有一個10分的分差，考慮一下怎么樣?你是下注還是不下注?我剛剛在這場比賽上投了500美元。

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

安吉拉：對我來說，有點太多了。我想我還是緊跟小聯(lián)盟比賽吧。
