wish i followed that philosophy. I had over 225 k in my accounts last spring and only cashed out about 100k. thought the king midas run would never end and got greedy. Funny i told myself once i get to 250k I'll take a break and cash it out but how can u stop when you are that on fire. A nice losing streak and betting way too much (10k per game) in chase mode was not fun. Since cashing out that 100k i spent over 25k partying/ vacations/ fancy dinners, bar tabs, etc. Was a wild summer. Not fun getting crushed this fall. Probably gave close 30k back and have the other 50k invested in the stock market. Even though i won that money still feels like im down. I can relate to this guy. Ive hit over 20 parlays that have paid over 10k, best 40k win. I'm a streaky gambler that would probably be around 50% if i grinded away on just straight bets. But i am very streaky and have a good feel for a lot of the leagues where going undefeated on the day happens from time to time and i usually have a parlay that pays me big if this happens. If the nets won tonight i would've made 15k on a 9 team parlay. I had chalked it up as a loss and went to hockey thinking the heat -2.5 bet was already sunk midway thru 3rd quarter and nets down 8. Was shocked to see the heat final win by 3 when my game ended and immediately scrolled to the nets boxscore only to be rooster teased. I'll be firing out more tomorrow and hope to get lucky.

was at 5dimes and heritage. both are top notch. only issue is how much you can get paid per week/month.
