    Bad beat, but not nearly as bad as the TNF nonsense where the public squares were one play away from covering both the side spread and total, only to have it wiped by a hilarious safety. Books almost got absolutely destroyed with 85%+ on those bets, was really rooting for it from the sidelines.

    Texans jumping out early tonight was just a fluke, blown coverage on Andre Johnson combined with a sleepy Indy OL limiting Luck's oppurtunities. I never would have been counting that money until the game was over, in the end Houston was what they've been the whole season: A 2-6 team.

    You'll make it up, don't throw in the towel just yet.

    Gambling is more about luck than anything else. I lost two games that were absolutely positively 100% the right play- hou and buff

    These games are choreographed for the audience. The NFL gets paid from Networks and like any other show, there has to be drama to keep the audience. We are just tools. Pure luck to be on the right side. Also the best bet sometimes is one you never make. This game was a PK and so many post about how fishy this was based on records.

    Still people bet on it. Now tears. We should only bet on games we have high probabilities to win. Eg NE should beat pathetic Steelers. Panthers should have beat pathetic Falcons. Jets vs Saints another fishy one.

    I knew Houston was going to lose as soon as Kubiak went down at halftime. Bullock hooking those kicks worse than a shitty golfer didn't help either. He has to be next on the chopping block.

    Damn man, take it easy. It happens more often than anything to be honest.. 21-3 at halftime is a decent lead in the NFL but a small hedge wouldn't have hurt. it may seems easy for me to say this now after the fact but you could've looked forward on cashing in Colts -3.5 for 2nd half... especially if you have TONS of bets relying texans ML..

    If it makes you feel any better, i think it was last year where I layed more than I normally would on a NYG game total over X... (think it was GB @ NYG). They scored like 40 pts in the first half and i only need 9 pts in the second half for it go over.. guess what happens in 2nd half.... lol... heartbreaker.... it happens..

    Stick to your guns. Just walk, there's plenty of other things in life to do and after spending most of my night awake and pissed off thinking about Kubiak going down and how I lay thousands on something I can't control I'm done also. I'm even giving up the casino and probably signing up for their exclusionary list so I'm banned.

    I have a good life, it used to be great. Spending countless hours in front of a computer screen and television or sitting at a poker table just doesn't do it for me anymore. There's one winning bet you can't lose and that's not to play.

    I'm glad I saw your post last night, it's nice to see somebody who feels as sick as I do this morning.

    If you can't then you're an addict and you'll never win. I'm a borderline addict myself...been there and done it all. The one guy is betting horses too.....that shit is unbeatable imo with a 16-17% rake. Laying -110 in a football is bad enough but how sick would it be if you had to lay -117 for every straight bet.

    I hit my big game on Sat. for $1000....lost $800 of it in pot limit omaha at a casino that night. Hit my big pro game with Tenn but got talked into a bunch of teaser w/the Saints that I didn't even like and blew nearly all of my winnings. Was up $4200 a month ago that I could really use with a kid in college next year and a 10 yr old car but I don't have discipline. I cash out after the Saints pissed me off.....sitting here in Indy and just KNEW that Hou 1st half was a lock. They still have nice talent and Keenum is pretty good and it was their SB. Then 2nd half was a lock the other way if they didn't pull the line because of Kubiak? Luck is now 17-7 SU in the NFL....they should've lost but they weren't losing by double digits w/him behind center. Things are crystal clear when you're not betting on them.

    Bottom line....I'm middle-aged and bought a big but moderately priced home w/poker winnings from the poker boom but gambling has also finished off a marriage and a few girlfriends including the best woman I've ever known 15 years ago. If you don't control it...it will control you.

    i honestly couldnt sleep last night. that may sound pathetic but god damn i just could believe what i saw. to answer the one question the 5 team ML parlay was paying out 800 the 3 teamer was paying out 300 the laker/texans was paying out 260. plus with the texans on 2 separate bets and the FG prop i wouldve won 1660ish. like my biggest win ever is only 601 on a exacta i hit last year on the melbourne cup..which is ironically tomorrow. the texans just needed to get a FG when it was 24-19. i cant believe he missed 3 fgs. i cant look at lines or bet these games anymore. my heart will explode next time this happens

    I'd say its unlikely the Bears are going to lose to GB without Rodgers. They are the 1st NFL team ever....they do have some pride and Favre/Rodgers beat their ass religiously so I'd say they're pretty hungry. I'm on Over 50.5 and I'd like to see us both win but its unlikely.

    Have you seen some of the throws McCown has made tonite? Man you need some time off bad even if this wins for you somehow. Cutler would've thrown atleast 1 pick already

    Just curious......if you're in a position to throw down $1500 on a +280 straight wager, then why were you beating yourself up over a missed 5 teamer that "only" paid out $800?

    Not to mention GBs defense is average at best w/Matthews....pure shit without him. Of course Chicago doesn't even try for a td so I lose too. Figures

    Going big on a +280 straight bet on tilt is a recipe for disaster.

    Yeah that bet was probably a bit impulsive. Chasing rarely ends well. I'm not preaching, just saying. I've done the same thing many times before and it sucks. The best thing you can do is step away for awhile and let your head clear before placing your next bet.

    I'm done for the rest of the year too.....sad after such a hot start. Just went 6-0 in NFL props 2 Sundays ago but gave it away. Once your reasoning goes and you're not playing with your head...its over and it will only get worse.

    Good thing is....even if you win its the time you spend capping games and vegetating in front of a tv for days on end. Its not healthy and your relationships suffer all around.

    Trust me, you will be back. I had a five team teaser that lost for a decent amount. Rice needed 1 TD on 1st and goal at the 1 yard line against UNT on thursday. They got 4 chances to get it, plus another 4 chances added because of a pass interference on 4th down and they still didn't get in. That's a total of eight agonizing choke plays that I had to watched. Your loss was easily worst though.

    That's brutal. Reminds me of the Niners in the Super Bowl, having 5 plays from the 2 yard line and trying to throw a TD pass and somehow managing NOT to score despite having Frank Gore, Anthony Dixon, and Colin Kaepernick who could have all run it in.
