How to be a terrible gambler and make 16k in two weeks

[Smalo89]

Here is a list of my plays over the last two weeks. I know I am a terrible handicapper but I figured I had to share this insane run ive had here on sbr. Cue the bashing.

Steve, that is a nice run but I have to ask what are BP's?
Adjustment]500.00 BPs Exchanged for $2.25

[Smalo89]

bookmaker gives you betpoints on certain wagers made. I had 500 bps sittting around that I redeemed for the $2

That is a crazy run. Do yourself a favor and withdraw 10K and continue on.

Great run Smalo....you didn't win anything until you cash out though my friend...don't do what I've done time and time again, run a few hundred up to $10k and then give almost all of it back in like 3 days and have nothing left to cash out. I've done this at least 3 times with Bookmaker. Cash out a bunch while you can Smalo! Cheers.

You read my mind, good advice.

[H1Cypher]

You must be a bad capper, cause mostly everyone just said congratulations..... and you assumed it'd be mostly hate.

Exactly what I planned on saying myself. Congrats dude nice run.

[ThaTopMoron]

great job man! you are being select and patient and waiting for games you really like it seems

make a W/D and keep enough to run it back up!

Thank you sir . I figured most people would say that I should bet with consistent units or that some plays had much more +ev on the spread than the ml. I honestly didnt think I would get this far and that is the main reason I was so cavalier with my bet sizes. Now that I have an established bankroll I plan on betting in a more orthodox fashion. Thanks to all those that post here. I take much of what is said into account with my own analysis before placing a wager.

clipper game musta had you sweatin...nice run!

[warriorfan707]

Withdraw it all, take 5 days off and then deposit 200$ and act like its your last 200$.

Best advice you will ever get.

[Smalo89]

clipper game musta had you sweatin...nice run!

Haha yeah it did. I was so frustrated for not pulling the trigger on the Celtics ml that I figured the clips ml would ease my suffering. it had the exact opposite effect lol.

[Smalo89]

thanks everyone for the support. i do plan on pulling most of it out and starting anew. bol to all, hope you all can have the luck ive had

[jackmyhoggoff]

89 Lets keep this going!! Post some plays for today or tomoorrow !! THANKS.

[panik]

Done this before, but not this huge... I was on a long streak like yourself maybe $3000... Withdrawed $2200 and kept $800....... Lost the 800 and deposit 1000, lost the 1000 then deposited 1000 again and lost it... All in less than a week...

So be careful...

Maybe buy something with that 10k.
