    Well, I consider the wife leaving as a blessing. One less mouth to feed and you catch a breath from all the bitching, whining and moaning. Unless she was the bread winner and you were the whiner

    You'll get them another day. Keep your head up.

    Join the club, buddy.

    Over 96 for me for all the marbles -- literally. Well, that and the OKC team total of 46 (ended up at 45).

    Here we go again.. Bro, I have seen countless post from you detailing these rapes you get.. Forget gambling man. Go get your wife/life back and swear to never gamble again. This isn't good for you. You have a gambling/losing problem and somebody is trying to tell you something with all the bad beats you are gettting. I think you are a Christian and your lord and savior is trying to tell you not to gamble. You have had more bad beats than I can recall.


    This is only temporary and you can make it right. Gambling is not for you. You are just wired wrong for it. Go find you wife bro and get the hell far far away from gambling.

    Got pictures?

    On a serious note, sorry you lost but from your response it sounded like you were in to deep. Take a break and come back refreshed in a day or three. Good luck with the family situation.

    I'm honestly thinking the same thing right now about myself, lyon.

    I didn't break anything and my wife's not going to leave me (I was playing with a bankroll I had accumulated and profit only), but the signs are loud and clear after tonight.

    Just leave the gambling. It isn't for everybody. It is a shitty lifestyle and that is coming from me and I am a winner at it, but I lose everywere else in life. The stakes are for real and I ain't talking dollars here. Get away from gambling. Only come back when you are disinterested or well funded enough and disciplined enough to not get into the situation you were in..

    I have seen you post and I know you aren't an idiot, but this game can be a motherfukker if you know what I mean. I have been were you are now and I vowed to myself to never see that again.

    Just get the fukk away man and find another hobby that is less stressful.

    We all get screwed from time to time, some more than others, but even if you're somehow not able to quit the gambling thing, then might I suggest losing the tv all together. Honestly, do your research, make your bets and take the wife to dinner or find something else to do. DO NOT WATCH THE GAME! Make your bets, get the results and live with it. I think you'll find it's a lot easier to take a loss this way. Goodluck either way buddy.

    I swear on everything that I'm looking at my sheet right now marked "Tuesday leans" -- you want to know what my record would be if I played all of them? 7-2 in baseball and 5-2 in NBA. How is it possible to pick so many losers out of so many winners?

    I have fun gambling, honestly, because I'm not trying to make a living doing it and I don't bet really big (plus not with "extra" money other than the season-long profit I just flushed). But now, well, maybe it's time to take an extended break and get the "rush" elsewhere.

    did you lose a lot or she left cause you broke shit.... cause you need to bet smaller or get anger managment classes... i dont even know if those classes work.... if you are happily married then you need to get her back... if your not then go out and get chicks have a good time.... if you have kids to feed then you have to make sure you are doing right by them.

    Everybody gets fukked time to time.. it's the nature of the beast. I get them as well, but usually can laugh about it unless I have 1K on it and even that isn't even close to breaking me, but enough money to get my attention.


    I know you have ability. I have seen you post..


    Do this if you are going to gamble.. Wait and save up some money and come back fresh and play all your leans within your BR means. Funny how much better we get when we also play within our menas rather than trying to just find that golden goose.

    Good luck. I thought you had something to offer in the gaming community.

    Yes, pray to the magic man in the sky for help.

    Yes, the magic man is telling you not to gamble by having you break your TV and your marriage; it was the only way.

    The magic man loves you.

    Serious question bro... Do you have kids with this woman? If so get your ass in the car and go in make it right now!! If not, it's just another whore out the door and $500 and new one will make you forget soon about that one, but if there are kids involved you need to go and make that shit right now because they need a father rather he is degenerate are not.

    I'd never made a single play over 10% of my bankroll before tonight, lyon.

    I know it was impetuous and stupid obviously in retrospect, but I believed in the play big-time and still do. For that over 96 not to hit -- in a close game after 50 points were scored in the 3rd quarter -- wow. Just wow.

    Manage that bankroll, and there will be no need to get that upset at a loss (even a bad beat).

    I hope things get turned around for you.

    It's one game. You really need to reassess the worth of your worldly possessions. From this post, I can conclude:

    Gambling > Living
    Computer/social network at SBR > The house you live in
    One game > Family

    Seriously, if this is the way you act when you get screwed by "1" then you shouldn't be doing this for anything other than entertainment, or a hobby. Lord knows how many times I've lost a bet by 1 point. 1 run. 1 goal. Chill out. There's a new card full of games tomorrow.

    Oh, I believe you were fukked... not denying that one bit.. I have seen much crazier shit than that loss though in my experience. Just move on and clear your head and in a few days it will pass just like everything else. Funny thing is this planet just keeps spinning thru good and bad and the difference between good and bad is a fine line closer than the 1/2 (the half) that fukked you..

    I don't disagree with any of this, lyon. Again, I'm not off the deep end about this loss -- just stinks that my + is gone now and that I'm off the board. Lesson learned, I guess. Again, it's not life and death.

    There is absolutely no fuKin way that the books capped the 2nd half with the lakers missing 7 FTs in the forth quarter. I dont care how good they are, this shit seems just too good to be true all the time. 2nd h spread and total off by .5 each, total of 1 point. U cant possibly get any closer without pushes and giving people their money back. I dont understand anymore when I see these things happen.

    Im not saying this shit is rigged, but maybe, juuuuust, maybe someone has biffs sports almanac from Back to the Future II

    Why? Sounds like she left. She can find her way back home. If a wife can't understand you gambling then the relationship aint going to work. You have to set the ground rules up front. Let her know its a hobby but it also pays for her nails and spa shit. Now if your losing money and can't afford to send her to the spa every other week then you need to give this shit up but as long as your kicking her off $$$ she will remain silent and let you do your thing.

    My wife asked me one time why I was spending so much time on the computer. I told her I was studying for the game that was on TV and I had $4G's riding on it and another game afterwards. She said "handle your business" and has never rode me since. Now if I was some lazy ass not earning a living and taking care of the house then she deserves to give me shit but as long as I'm clothing, feeding and entertaining her she has no room to be unhappy.

    Handle your shit but set the rules...

    And there are always 2 sides to every coin. For every game u lost by .5 and 1 run another guy hit his 5 team parlay and is jumping up and down as we speak, its all relative and most of the time it all sucks. But for those few times it rocks, its worth it........................

    P.S. Im single and it makes my life 10x easier as a gambler, yet everyday when I wake up alone I realize the value of what u have, hope you can see it too

    Scary stuff. I was once headed down a road of uncontrolled gambling. Then God showed me some things and now I'm mostly a spectator. Don't let $$$ control you.
