I'm 22, started betting in 2012, small stuff, nothing special. Just to help my self to fill my car tank for the week and stuff like that.
My best sport is Tennis, I follow tennis every day so I'm pretty good at it. When I really need money, it doesn't let my down. For other sports, I know enough but I do my homework before betting.
This year I decided to stop betting, It just takes too much time and energy, and when I have a losing week, it just feels bad.
Anyway, needed some money exactly one month ago and put 74$ on my account in the evening, had over 600$ the next morning, all thanks to Tennis. Got 500$ that I needed and left the other 100$.
Left those 100$ because I decided to hit big, 3k$ or 4k$ (yeah, right now 3k$ are big money for me) before retiring from betting.
First week > I use those 100$ and build my budget to 600$ again for the weekend, goal was to hit 1k$ or 1,5k$ for the next week. Never mind, Seahawks first and NY Giants then kills both my parlays and I'm left with $150..
Second week > Use those 150$ and I'm at 1k$ before the weekends thanks to Tennis, never mind again, NY Giants kills my dreams.
Third week > Left with 500$, a few bad bets and I'm at 100$ in the middle of the week, I focus on Tennis again and I'm back to bet big. Nothing, Chelsea decides to kill my dreams by allowing a goal in the last second. Ok. No problem.
Fourth week > Left with 200$, I become red hot and I'm sitting at 1,6$k at Saturday night thanks to Tennis, NBA and Basket Euroleague. Feels good man. 600$ on Tottenham Hotspurs + Pennetta + 49ers and I will have my 3k$. Pennetta wins the first set easy 6-1, Spurs are losing 0-1 to Villa but they score 2 goals in 6 minutes and win in the end.. But Pennetta already lost the 2nd set and was just about to give up and double faults on MP and kills my dreams again. Yeah, I know, the 49ers lost anyway..
Left with 1k$, I try to bounce back and hit Ravens and another NHL bet, NHL is ok, but Ravens decides to kill my dreams again.
Now I'm sitting at 550$ and don't know if I'm gonna make it to my 3'000$ for the end of the week.. Every time I try, I do good and fail in the end. I should have just trusted Brady and the Patriots and made a single big bet on them.. fuk me.
What would you do guys now? I don't have the time anymore.. maybe just 1 more week..
