Here's one that we've been guilty of one time or another and I'm surprised that it hasn't been mentioned yet....you have a lock or a good gut feeling on a game that you are about to wager on but then you listen to someone on the radio, on TV, on this forum, etc. and then they persuade you to go the other way, and you wind up losing the bet instead of winning it because you didn't just go with your initial gut reaction!
