    Need People Opinion

    Okay so, after last night im offically down $1200.

    Should i just take the lost, and pay this out Wednesday to my bookie, Or should i lay $300 on tonight game and try to bring it down a little bit.

    This $1200 is basically my pay check, and some of my belonging, I probably can afford another $300 bet but it would really cripple me.

    From everyone gambling experience, what should I do? I know chasing is bad... Which is why I am in this spot right now.... I am really leaning toward paying what i owe, and trying to scramble up money during the week and try to possibly win part of it back..... Rather than play what i dont have at the momment.

    im no expert here, but i would go with pay up. u dont want to take a chance at getting ur skull split. u have a girlfriend u can take half the money from? if you do, then i say make the 300 bet tonight and just take what u dont have from ur girlfriend

    good luck, that sounds like a shitty situation

    Pay your bookie out. Take a break from wagering for a week or so. You would not want to wager while your already down so much, right now your are also fkd mentally, which often leads to chasing to make back ur losses. Hence take the break and clear your mind ==> You'll get over it slowly

    theres not really a solid enough play on tonights game. over is set too high but i think the games going to be high scoring. colts probably cover the 10 but i wouldnt be surprised with any results that occurred.

    $300? You are down $1200 so obviously you need to be $1200 on your play tonight. Go large! What is the worst that could happen???

    yea, pay up, take a break and wait for a good game. you need to win your next game, keep that in mind, and wait for the one you know you'll win.

    Fukk it. Take a risk. Where would we be in this world if people never took risks?

    Opie is right, call your bookie and ask if you can bet next weeks paycheck. You're statistically due for a win; don't be a fukin quitter pal.

    As for the opinion...

    pay your bookie or
    don't and move out of town

    &

    change your betting strategy (start with NOT betting your paycheck) or
    stop altogether cuz if you have to ask what to do in this situation....you're in serious trouble

    Opie's chem plant has been torched.

    I think he lit the fuse, trying to collect insurance money to get back into the game.

    Only till tonite, pal. That's all going to
    change after the Rangers take care of business in Tampa today.

    Follow me to the Promised Land, Quanger!

    I will lead you there, pal.

    Lesson learned, never chase!!! I losted $200 ended up paying $1400, Bad streaks are real.I hope i will never chase again... I usually hit the 65% mark or even up by the end of the day...... I have never went 0-8 before. Lesson learned

    I would never stiff someone.... If you wager, you are responsible for the consequences.

    Well bad thing out of this story is, I lost two of my closest friends during high school. It was not the money issues, but when i asked for their help, they abandoned me. I helped those two fuckers so much during high school. Meh, people change, and you can never expect the same gratitude you give out too people in return... smh, hopefully i can find some real down to earth friend, down the road.

    I was able to pay up by selling two pairs of jordan... $600 there...I am going to miss those DS shoes.
