    2 Dumb plays as I go up in smoke
    I'm down $7,000 since all star break. My $500 bets have turned into $1,000 and $1,500 bets. I'm down

    $65,000 since Oct 07. I keep track. I'm in CC debt now. Disaster from hell.


    Today, I'm doing a parlay which I never do- Phils +133 and Mets +114 $510 to win $2,012 (parlay)

    Phils +133 $500 to win $655 (straight bet)

    Mets +114 $500 to win $570 (straight bet)

    And its no wonder, look at these dumb ******* plays.

      If you are married and have kids get help. If you are single and broke then go for it.

      Either way you slice it gambling is not for you. Go find something you really enjoy.

        Every time I think I'm having a bad day, I read posts like this and am thankful I'm still betting with my profits.

        Sorry to hear this, man, but chasing will do you no good.

        How did you come up with Philly and the Mets?

            just IMO try lowering your bets to like $50 or $100 till you get better GL.

              Thanks bro, yeah it really sux. I'll tell more about my story. A couple of posters seem a little interested. I'm

              a single guy, I'm 29 and rent and apartment. I had a girl for 6 years, but we broke up because she's a slut,

              not bc I gamble. I could pay my bills because I still have good credit, so I have

              high credit card limits, etc. As of now. I went thru my Savings account chasing bets. I know chasing bets

              is dumb. I know I can't win. I'm just in so much pain because of all the money I lost. I could of had

              a house. The only thing that eases the pain is gambling. It doesn't even make sense. I'm not looking for

              sympathy nor do I want any. Just telling my story, and if it could happen to me it could happen to

              anybody. I have a good job, come from a nice family, etc. I've done some good things in my life and

              I'm happy with the person I am (for the most part). This gambling shit is kicking my ass though

                    Forget money management man....get some help. Youre digging a hole that will cause you troubles forever. Contact some help or go to your doctor who can point you into the direction of help. Obviously we're all here because we like to gamble or do it because we make money...it doesnt sound like you are making money or enjoying yourself. Keep your head up and get some help bro. GL on whatever you choose.

                          money management is the only thing you need to learn, once you master that you will be okay, also learn to take some nights off and get away from the cpu, go to the movies or out on a date..never make another bet after a huge loss, always get your head straight first...

                                CC -325 vs. the royals tomorrow. For everything you've got, can get, and can borrow. Win that, pay off what you can, and then just call it quits.

                                  reading stories like this keeps me leveled out, even when on a roll.

                                  i hope its not me posting this kind of thing in 5 years.

                                  but, yes those bets weren't the best in both the selection and the fact you parlayed them for the same amount as you straight bet! g/l with the mets though. i'm on the d-backs, but it sounds like you need it more than me

                                    Ouch! Bro, like what others have said, you should try and get a handle on this gambling situation before it completely destroys your life. Aside from the money you've already lost, the CC debt thing is gonna mess you up real bad.

                                    Anyways, I hope the Mets can at least come through for you. Best of luck bro.

                                              ya both those games were anything but easy......if he took this he would have prolly offed himself before the games finished.
