I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but...
I've always bet on sports with my friend for fun for $5-10 and I had a pretty large amount in a c/d just mature so i figured hey why not, so I started with $1,500 for fun online. I was on a roll my first week and i was at $3,650 or so by the end of the week making $50/$100 bets. This past week, I haven't been able to catch a break and i'm losing every game by 2-3 points (i'm sure this happens to everyone though lol). I'm new to handicapping so I'm not sure how I should deal with it. I've tried playing 2 games a day and taking a break, but I'm consistently down $200-400 a day. Now I'm at $2000. I'm pretty good at not chasing and money management, so I don't know what to do here. Should I keep playing? I'm just trying to hit my ridiculous $15,000 rollover (i'm halfway there two weeks in) so I can cash out without losing $800. Should I just cash out and take the $1200 or should I hope my luck turns around?
