    Celtics - 6 - I just broke my ******* tv

    Had a big number on Celtics - 6. Up 8, 7 seconds left, Sacramento hits a meaningless 3 with 2 seconds left and then decides not to foul. Game over. 5 point win Celtics. Bet loss.

    Shit like this really gets you depressed. Im not going to be able to sleep tonight.

    man last night the pacers covered the spread on a 35 ft 3 pointer with an 8 point lead spread was 8.5!!! Then the wizards down 10 score to make it 8 with a few seconds left then they foul??? dallas covered 9.5 with their FT's. Now tonight the kings score a 3 with 2 seconds left for no damn reason! What a shitty way to lose!! I mean come on 3 games in a row like this!!

    Feel for you since I got the same play. Money manage and you'll be fine. I got beat on a Toronto play yesterday that's even more ridiculous. NBA where amazing happens.

    We all have bad beats...I feel for ya brother. I've had big money Golden State unders that would have been easy winners, only to be forced into overtime by a three quarters court shot and what was more or less a half court three. I love betting the NBA, but it freeking drives me nuts. Hang in there and get'em tomorrow...good luck.

    In the end bad/good beats all even up. Unless you are No Coincidences betting a baseball total.

    I had the EXACT same thing happen to me with UCLA and AZ st. on Saturday. This is the most under 2 point losses that I've had in my entire betting career it's making me sick.

    What frustrated me even more today was I bought Florida down to -4 and they kept missing every free throw. Thank god I pushed or I would have gone crazy especially with this Boston loss.

    I just lost a regular sized play but from the 2 losses yesterday that I mentioned above I feel like I was truly on the right side of the game and just got to see the house get an ace on the turn! This is like being up a full house on 2 pair and watching the guy catch a higher boat! Come on!! Why did the pacers shoot from 35 ft with an 8 point lead and the raptors were not fouling?? all they had to do was run the clock out and the game was over. Then the wizards just foul down 8 with 2 seconds left??? who scores 10 points in 2 seconds??? Now the kings test my patience and shoot a 3 with 2 seconds left??? I am not losing a lot on these plays but I feel like i shouldn't be losing them at all lol. very frustrating.

    That's gambling for yeh. One night you will squeak a win in, the next night you will have a tough loss. Had Sac +6 AND Lakers/Houston UNDER 209.5....

    PERFECT example of how sports wagering works.....

    Evans hits a BS three at the end to make me cover, but Houston/LA game goes into OT and I get ******....

    The key is to make profit in the long term. I realized a long time ago that this is an investment, that's why I just look at the box scores at the end of the night.

    Bro you got to accept the reality of the NBA betting, look at the other games.

    Wizards cover by 2 points, Portland outright blows out the best team in the NBA, Kings cover by 1, Houston covers by 1. I'm not saying every game was fixed, maybe they are, but that is whats going on in this league.

    Not to mention the Heat -10 first half. Up by 20 with minutes left in the 1H. Then Miami just starts getting real sloppy, turning the ball over and not playing any defense...

    A LOT of games are like this. I had Hornets -9 and they were up 12 and then a bunch of stupid bullsht happened just like you guys. but i had Pacers-9 yesterday and bs worked in my favor. Hope it's true that it all evens out. The only non-stressfull endings are when you had + points and the team is actually winning.

    I know ALL TOO well where you are coming from.
    With Lakers up 6 at recess, I took them -2.5 2nd Half.........I finally catch a break, and see a close game reach OT. Following CBS Sportsline, it had the final at 115-106, so I went to bed in the best mood ever and slept like a baby. I woke up to find my play graded as a loss, and see the score got updated to 114-106, lost by the hook. Now in the worst mood ever, and will be chasing soccer games all day now, and will probably be bankrupt by days end, haha!

    I don't bet the spread anymore. Hard enough to figure out who's gonna come out ready to play much less cover the spread.
