      not gambling, but stock market, which is also gambling in the way.

      year 2008 lost 36K in one day backing Washington Mutual...everyone thought that the government would not let the country's oldest bank to go under...unfortunately that was not the case.

              JJ, spend some of that San Fran 1H ML $ on some veneers. A little Benadryll to quell all that new swelling around your neck and it will be an improvement. You will still be a bald, horse shoe headed prikk, but Rome wasn't built in a day, pal.

                    White sox screwed me over also. I had a 15 team baseball parlay to win 100k one sunday back when i was a poor college student. The first 14 hit and it was all up to Gavin Floyd and the white sox at Texas on sunday night baseball. Gavin was from the area and had a bunch of family and friends in the crowd. I ate that angle up. I only had 2500 to hedge with and decided to middle and take texas +1.5 and hope to win both bets. Texas won like 11-2 and I stayed in bed for about a week.

                      I worked hard over a year span on a 200$ deposit and built a 12 grand bank roll, I cashed out around 5 grand over the time span, if not more and was still winning and was keeping the roll around 12 g's.

                      one day, got drunk, xannied up. day games. blacked out. that's all she wrote.

                          yeah, the worst part is, over that year span that i had that 12 grand, even if i went on 'tilt' i still had the discipline to not let it be anyhing major and not let it really effect my emotions, i was extremely disciplined

                          i wouldn't even watch the games, place the bet and check the score after, until the disaster day.

                          only thing i can remember from that day is the feeling of anger watching the games of what didn't go my way and getting so mad, xanax, booze and emotions = disaster.

                            now that I think about it, I was literally cashing out P2P 500-700 every other day. I don't know how i didn't get black listed.

                                trust me it was probably better off. you would have had a ton off issues getting 100k offshore to you. lol.

                                and that would have felt even worse.

                                  someone told me if you go over $10,000 in a structured form in short amount of time you get the ax.

                                  also, it's recommended to go to different agents to collect.

                                                Missing the point, I don't regret making a bet just because it lost...

                                                I used all the information I had at the time and made a decision...

                                                Only thing I could say is that I gambled way too much drunk off my ass...

                                                I just can't drown on the past, I just TURN THE PAGE

                                                    Lol, I'm always learning my man, but that doesn't mean I regret....

                                                    I'm done w/ this topic now...

                                                    Good luck w/ the Falcons, they have a big advantage running against that D line

                                                        i regret many things

                                                        why? because i am not where i want to be

                                                        if i was there, then no i wouldnt regret going through the hardships

                                                        if i become the person i want then i wont have regrets, until then i do.

                                                          Not putting more on a winning wager. Happens often, as in - everytime I win I regret not putting more.

                                                                I just can't drown on the past, I just TURN THE PAGE


                                                                well said. if you stay drowning in your "bad beats" you'll never make money or become even a remotely successful gambler. you can not come emotionally invested. you can't watch the games and be like "oh come on what the penetrate!!!!!" and let it drive u insane, you need to have ice water in your veins and be able to brush shit off and move on to the next one without it effecting your next bet.
