          I met a guy last night who lost 10,00 in 4 hands at the blackjack table at the Bellagio.

          Fukking guy put 3,000 dollars into the high stakes Video poker hit 10's with aces, made 10,000.

          Then went on to lose it all at the Blackjack table. All in the same night.

            The title is misleading. It should read I lost all my college basketball money. But then it wouldn't get as many views.

              This guy must be knocked out, I do not know what peopl think when they make huge bets. It never works and all you do if you hit it is blow it all back and 10x more.

                        i flew home from vegas today. the plane ride gave me time to sit and think about things. how could i win (or would have won) almost all of my bets and still go home broke? one game wiped out my cbb bankroll.

                        sort of like byu. they also won most of their games (they finished 30-6 the season). but the ncaa tournament is single elimination. i got caught up in the emotion of the tournament. i forgot gambling isn't a single elimination basketball tournament. gambling isn't about losing one game and going home.

                        i'll be back for baseball boys. that sport is easier to manage since it's a season long grind. there aren't any single elimination games to get caught on. be ready.

                          Going all in makes every game a single elimination game no matter what sport you are betting on!!!!!!!

                          Bankroll management is the key to success when wagering on sports by going all in you are betting 97% more of your bankroll than you should bet on any game no matter how much of a lock you believe it is.

                          I wish I could award you sympathy on this but this is nothing more than a hard learned lesson that hopefully for your sake you learned a valuable lesson from. I said it once and I will say it again greed is a gamblers worst enemy, and if you are not content to slowly grind out a profit than your future is nothing more than a coin toss heads your rich or tails your poor. Unfortunately for you gamblers never quit while they are ahead!!!! good luck

                            Ouch! You're not the first and sure as hell won't be the last. The odds are so stacked against you its ridiculous. Oh well like many things in life, we always learn the hard way.

                                In time Ive learned not to go all in... especially when it comes to betting. You can never be sure, Id rather stay on the safe side than the broke side...
