Absolutely & utterly disgusted

[Regul8er]

So guys, I give in.....I scronge every penny up, and deposit $200 today, because the itch has been bad last two weeks.

So I bet $50 on 4 college games, thinkin Im going to have a fun night:

1) Wisconsin PICK - lose by 16.
2) South Alabama +12.5 - lose by 30.
3) Washington St -4.5 - lose by 20.
4) Western Carolina PICK - lose by 17.

Is this some kind of a sick fu(kin joke. Seriously, I thought Ive seen it all.
So I take my $50 rebate, and throw it on Boston Celtics +3.5 in the 2nd Half. They were up 5 at half, and end up winning by 1. They lose the half by f(kin 4 points. They couldnt score there last 4 possessions with the ball in the hands of Garnett, Pierce and Rondo. Guys, I'm being punished very, very badly, and I can't understand why. Keep in mind that I was 7-33 in my last 40 picks for real money. This makes it 7-38. Im blown away, absolutely blown away.

This just means you're due for a hot streak??

[Regul8er]

Has anyone seen or experienced anything even similar to what I've gone through the last few months? I would be very surprised if someone here has. Looks like me and the wife are eating mac and cheese next few weeks. Shes not going to be pleased.

Man, that sucks. The worst was the BOS second half -- had that one, too. Should've had that with ease, but they totally shit the bed in the 4th (11 points)?

At least with the rest, you didn't have to second guess it looking back? I don't know. That sucks, man. We've all been there, where everything you touch turns to dogshit. My suggestion is tail ICE for a while on this board -- that guy's a machine. 2DaBank's typically $$$ as well. Follow someone else a little until you get back on your feet and confident enough to swing the momentum pendulum on your own.

BOL.

Andy, unfortunately I have ZERO MONEY for a hot streak. Im fu(ked

Not quite to that extent, but I'd imagine everyone has ugly tales of cold streaks that we'd like to forget. I know I do.

[Regul8er]

Im in absolute awe right now. Never felt so miserable.

[beerman2619]

had the celtics myself tonight. Course i had Wisconsin also another bad night it does suck. Thank god for top ramon and pbr bout all i can afford ha.

[Regul8er]

How can Boston do this??? Everytime I take against them, their big guys step up EVERYTIME. Why do they flop on their fu(kin a$$es tonight. How can this happen? No points in last 3 mins with that offensive lineup. UNREAL, Im sick

When you don't have a probably funded bankroll for betting, you fall into this type of thing. Your losing streaks destroy you and you have nothing to break out of it with. So you could start pressing on games and double guessing because your down to your last dollars, which in turn could create losing streaks. If you don't have the funds, don't bet. Wait to you build up a solid bankroll.

[2daBank]

Regul8er...i feel for you brother for someone who knows the game (which is obvious you do) ive never seen a drought like the one you have experienced it makes no damn sense...i keep waiting to see you have turned it around and then i see this, im real sorry to hear it wont turn around for you as you seem like good ppl and deserve better.....keep your head up my friend

Yep. Looking back, he probably should've gone $20 on each play to assure it wasn't an all-or-nothing deal. But when you're desperate, it's easier said than done. Believe me, I know.

He's probably overanalyzing. I've seen it happen to the best of 'em -- they can't pull the trigger on the leans they should, and see something in games they'd normally pass on without batting an eye.

[Regul8er]

onlooker put it best. Unfortunately, I wont ever have enough to deposit a good chunk of change. With that said, I can't bet $5 a game either. I think I need to put gambling on the shelf. Not even looking forward to my Vegas trip in March now. Im gonna have zero confidence, and you never win with that attitude.

Why not? I've been there, and while it ain't pretty, you've gotta do what you've gotta do if you don't want to quit cold turkey.

Your right! South Alabama looked way too easy (evenly matched, played a 3 point game earlier this year, rivalry game) and they lay a fu(kin egg!

It sucks cuz even though I wont be betting, I'll be thinking about it non-stop, its going to continue to be agonizing.

Its just no fun for me knowing I could run the table, go 20-0, and only win a $100. No thrill when your used to $50-$100.

Again, I've been there and know the feeling. It's not an easy habit to kick, or even put on the shelf. Try not to look at the lines and stuff too much, because you'll find yourself mentally tracking and getting into a "woulda, shoulda, coulda" streak of wins that will only make things worse, unfortunately.

[Regul8er]

Thanks Guys...Im off to bed, doubt I'll sleep but who knows. Gotta be up for work in 4 hours.

I know what you mean, but if you lose, you aren't losing much either.

Again, might be a temporary solution. The alternative is to stop altogether.

[Ralphie1412]

I'll sell you my picks?

or

You could place bets with samsncharge99......heard the payouts are quick

Did you sell him that WISC pick?

[Ralphie1412]

Naw man, that one was free.

I had a Triple ZBOIZ sharp Banger on Pitt +265

Dude you got the worst money management one can possible have.. betting 25 % of your bankroll on 1 game? C'mon man... seriously and you bet 4 games for $50 a pop? That would mean you had to of gone at least 3-1 to even make a profit.

Adding insult to injury....

Dude, give the guy a break. You've never bet with desperation before? You don't think he knows it was poor money management?

[Ralphie1412]

If I were you I would have put the 200 on one play, which obviously at 0-5 that wouldnt have worked out, but the best way I have gotten out of holes is putting in 220 and hitting a play then u got 420

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

When I used to eat mac and cheese back in college, I added tons of soy sauce so I could make believe there was meat in that meal.

I remember losing $270 betting a sure thing on horses so I could get the wife a nice Mother's Day present. I lost the $270. That could've made her a nice Mother's Day present.

Hope your luck turns around. 20-0 with $5 bets. At least you'd be in the game.

You can bet with points and build it to get a freeplay. The points aren't the same but it can satisfy the betting bug and get you a way to bet with real money. It only took me 4 days to get mine from 50 to 600 for a $100 freeplay.

I think everyone lost that wisconsin game tonight that was awful
