    need some advice after an 0-5 night :(
    After last night's debacle, I am so pissed at the world of gambling, I am about to quit. If I had anything substantial in my online account, I would quit TODAY. Unfortunately, I have about 50$ left in my bodog acct, so I figured what the hell, let it ride, worst case scenario I lose it all, best case scenario, I win a bunch more.

    Anyway, last night I went with

    IND ML
    ATL ML
    WAS -3
    ORL -1.5
    LAC +12.5

    Seriously, I took a good amount of time to look at the matchups, and pick who I thought would prevail. I now think that not only do i have SHITTY shitty luck, but I may even be cursed in the world of gambling.

    (Good example, I bet on the Yanks to win the world series the year they got AROD before game 1 of the season. Needless to say, they lost a 3-0 game lead to the Red Sox, up by a run in the 8th inning.)

    Long story short, help a brotha out and let me know which side looks best for tonight. I'm either going to go with that approach, or do the same analysis as last night and fade all my picks HARD. do people seriously make money betting? Mad props if you do. I feel square as hell at the moment. Thanks!

        thanks for the advice....I'll probably go with Detroit, which, with my luck your other 9 picks will all hit but not detroit. So to anybody reading this, fade me fast!

        nice ride, civic sir, what do you have under the hood?

                    wow....amazing.

                    i bet on detroit and they lose by 7 to the raptors.
                    seriously, at this point I kinda feel bad for the teams that I bet on.
                    I'm thinking about starting a daily thread of my stone cold locks! As long as you fade me, you can't lose!!!

                      You can't phucken win long term at this game. Anyone who says differently is both a degenerate AND a liar. Just call this what it is; a sick addiction. I came to terms with this truth a long time ago, pal.

                            Dude, everyone has 0-5 nights. It's natural. In fact, if you didn't have an 0pher from time to time, you wouldn't be normal.

                            Anyway, I played Washington with you tonight. Good luck Patsfan!

                                this is so sad. I can't believe this is what it's come to...

                                HAHA, went from 0-5 to 4-0....
                                you may be saying wtf, dude, all of your bets lost.
                                well, I'll have you know those picks were my "locks"
                                so, the second before I put them in, I switched to the exact opposite pick. It was really hard to do, but I did it. And won. I will be posting my "winners" again today.

                                If I'm as good at picking losers as I think, I think I can make some here.......
