    When u lose confidence
    happened to me, as i went on a pretty bad streak of 2-7, -25 units now i can't make a decision on anything, i don't feel confident on any pick, and when i actually bet on a team, i feel like am making a coin flip

    so what's the thing to do in such case?

        Started out NHL -23.48u in 16 days. Tweaked a few things and have been +8.62 last 5. So my advice is to try something a little different, no major changes, in whatever method you use to cap. And lower your unit/play in the meantime-- no sense further damaging that bankroll while experimenting. GL!

            I think everyone who wagers on sports goes through periods such as these.

            You find you start second guessing your self on your picks....Flip flopping on teams,only to find your original wager was a winner.

            I chalk this up to over thinking the situation.....Play on paper,or cut your wagers down, till things turn around.

              Go back to your one game a night for awhile until you reel of a few vicotories in a row then think about expanding back up. When in a slump just relaxing and getting your focus back is the most important thing.

                take some cheap MLs like -200 to -310 in a 2 or 3 team parlay and put down a small price. You will cash in something

                  dont chase - bet less units and less games until you get some confidence back and start seeing games clearly.

                    Was in this situation about 6 wks ago. Just take a few days off. Or make your picks but don't wager on them. Once you start getting hot again. Hit it!
