    At bet365 you can request your account to be disabled from live betting. I agree it's so tempting and it's been a killer for me as well in the past. Call them and ask and they'll disable it for you. Just make your bets before tipoff and relax. If you're watching a game and see something you might like something just take a second half bet.

    While I'm new to these forums I'm not at all new to the gambling lifestyle. On and off card games. All sports. There are many times where you get cold and you need to shut it down. Stay away. Cold turkey. Make plans so you cannot even watch the games and you will be less inclined to wager. Turn your phone off during games. Give yourself a predetermined time period and just stay away (30 days?) instead of trying to be more conservative with wagers. When that time period elapses start easig back in and being more conservative.


    The one ultimate and important rule that you must follow: If you cannot afford it do not wager anything. View it as a means of paying for entertainment, and if you win its a positive. It is not a means of income. You pay $x amount of dollars for a few hours of entertainment. If you don't have the money to do that then you don't have the money to wager. That's the outlook.

    What about find another hobby / learn to multi task. Don't get stuck betting all the time. I don't know how people bet multiple sports just using analytics or w.e shit they use. I stick with NBA, I'm pretty good with it but that's only because I only watch Nba and Nfl but some people are betting across the boards that might be a recipe for failure, depends on the sports though.

    I might actually give this a shot, thanks for the advice man. Live betting is way too addicting.
