    The Addiction
    The addiction is right in the title. Went bust today thanks to not trusting my instincts and forcing the issue. Kind of the way I pushed the last two weeks that led to El Busterino.

    That makes a small cash out and a bust for my NCAAB campaign. Have I learned from my mistakes? That's what I'm doing here. Redepositing for the final time for the remainder of the NCAAB season. If I bust out again, I'm a points player for March Madness and a sideline gambler probably until Baseball starts its regular season.

    I'm not limiting myself to 1st halves, 2nd halves, sides, totals, whatever. I'm looking for the best plays in my opinion with the best edges. That for me is the key. Find the edge. Play it. Don't action play. Trust the instincts.

    If I stick to the rules of engagement, I survive. If I fail with the rules, I will faill with this deposit. Surely there will be a purpose to this Final thread. It may be for you to ride the Golden Fade to Riches. If may be to follow. It may be to laugh yourself silly. Will be Tweeting these picks. Twitter the same as my SBR handle for anyone who cares. Picks to follow for this evening.

          Yes, it does hint at psychosis.

              Well that was a hateful beginning. 68 and three missed threes in the last 40 seconds.

                That was absolutely brutal to watch. No points in the last minute and just five in the last two. Sat on 68.

                Wow. Sorry man.

                    And then of course there's 17 points in the first 2+ minutes of the 2H. I hate when that happens.

                            Looks like a costly late pick miss on UNLV. One of the best 2nd half teams usually ... damn.

                              3-1 so far. I'll take that even though 4-0 really should have happened.

                                  Cannot believe this took OT to go over, but I'll take it. Needed 7 points at the 4:00 to push and they got 5.

                                            I like the initial post a lot, my friend. A lot of problems I see with gamblers are with them not trusting instincts enough. When I trust my gut and hit the play that feels the best is when I see the most profit. When I read into numbers, people's thoughts, etc. I run into problems.

                                            Good luck from here on out. No bust!!!

                                                  *Merp. Well a slow start of 1-2. Been steady in not bowing down to the almighty Action Play, so I'm good with that so far.

                                                            Wazzou is to end up or down for the day. Leaned to Oregon until I saw the line and the stats for me lent to Wazzou and the points. We'll see how it finishes. Looks tough and they might fade away like USC did at the end. All in all, I feel okay with today. Kept away from the Action Play, although I skipped at least one that wound up winning because I was trying to be smart.

                                                              Well chalk one up to not follow instinct. I can live with that if it's one out of every 14 picks, but I strive for zero times not trusting my gut. Decent for two days though.
