went (compulisely) huge on four plays today

[Dirty Bay Player]

I ran up a $4k balance in my account over the last few days. Everything I read says not to ever stake more than a coupla percent of roll per wager. I just threw down the entire roll in a single day.

o9.5 (Rockies Nats) - 1000 to win 1050
Nationals +1.5 (-125) - 1000 to win 800
2 team parlay o8 (cubs/mets) with Mets (+112) 500 to win 1481
2 team parlay Cardinals (-135) with Giants (-135) 1500 to win 3045

Anytime I run up a big balance, I do it by hitting long odds. Every time I then pull back (once I've gotten a decent balance) and play conservative and favorites, I seem to slowly lose it all back.

This time I decided to play big and loose just for once and see if I can get it to a four digit # before withdrawal. If I go 1-4 or 0-4 I'm going to be bummed about it (ESPECIALLLY throwing down so large on the Nattynols) - but **** it. Why not go for it? I've been playing 3-4 games per day on average all the way back to the NFL playoffs, and I'm a little burnt anyway. If I lose it all, it'll be a good time to take a few weeks off and regroup anyway.

I'm already calling myself stupid, so that you don't have to. How about some good vibes?

the way the mets have been hitting the over scares me some
i'm an over bettor and they havent been very kind to me so far

I like the R/L on the Nats the best. I thiink you would have been better off putting SD in that 2 teamer with Stl. You should have just played Stl straight instead of putting them in a parlay. That's my two cents. GL with those tonight I don't like to see people lose there ass.

On the over in the nats game. Like it.

@Crayzee Yeah, that o8 at face value seems a bit suspect in the Mets game. I took the Mets more based on value (I love betting against the Cubs when they are off to such a slow start and are facing so much pressure). Two shitty teams playing in desperation - I am sensing some errors and a spectacular bullpen meltdown from the Cubs. Total gut feeling, no stats to support any of it. Probably a loser.

@mandude Really? You like SD against the Giants with their second best pitcher going? The Padres' offense is pathetic, aside from Gonzalez. Cain does scare me in the sense that he seems to pitch well and get the no decision much more often than the average pitcher (for lack of run support). I think if the Giants score 4 runs, they win.
