    If you lose a game when gambling...

    Do you find your attitude changing....

    like taking it out on other people or becoming somewhat bipolar??

    I become a world class prikk when I have a really lousy day gambling-wise. I try not too, but that's simply how it is. There's been numerous bad beats where I've become pretty convinced that God apparently hates me....

    ......but then there's those rare moments that he shines his light on me yet again!

    usually the tv and remote control are affected most, but just on last minute bad beats. do not getting the shit beat out of me as my capping was bad but late bad beat tears me up.

    When I lose a bet, I just go to the internet and read all the squares furiously thread bumping and past posting how they actually had 8 million on the game and needed it to close out their 10 team par for 25 billion.

    Depends how the losses came about. When I just have a bad day, losing most of my bets by a wide margin...it really doesn't bother me too much at all. But if I have some bad beats like unders losing in extra innings or a 6 inning bottom of the 9th to lose the game, I get pretty aggravated and I can think of a couple times it has ruined my night.

    Seldomly gamble because of this very reason Yorky. I can arb though which is fortunate cos its 10% of the stress that gambling brings and i dont have to worry about those bi-polar like mood changes after a bad beat

    i like to push old ladies down staircases when i lose even a $10 bet--it's easier than you think because they're too old to really fight back

    Something I wish I could change is how I react to losses but sadly bad days affect me like others in here and they usually have me pissed off till I at least win some of it back

    Many posters here have done similar when they lost 50 betpoints due to a 9th inning blown save, dont feel bad sir, its not you that has the problem, its the old ppl walking too close to staircases following a blown save that have the problem

    I've learned to take it all in stride. Now the bigger losses tend to get to me still.

    As everyone pointed out, its human nature. And especially for us. We love the highs of winning, but we wouldn't have those highs if there weren't the lows of losing...it's a love-hate relationship.

    winning/losing doesnt matter, i tend to be a tad bipolar all the time. sure shit days get me a little depressed but im not any more of a asshole than any other day, try to save it for ppl who deserve it.

    Now you wanna see me in a bad mood, take my pills and weed away. Then things change, if i have the right combo i wont even care when im waking up to see that sf scored 100 runs in the 12th inning thur, or that Salas gave up a 2run jack with 2 outs in 9th fri.

    Its all about the pills/weed to control the moods, York ive noticed you get real excited real early in the gms, that is a recipe for letdown and mood swings, take a couple zanny's/Valium and chill and let whatever gonna happen happen. No reason to let it get you to up and down all the time, cant be good for your health.

    Swear to god, you couldn't tell from my body language whether I won big or lost big. You just get used to it, sort of like watching the Dow Jones performance.
