NHL playoffs are exciting, but it has nothing to do with gambling - I love to watch as a hockey fan, period.

I'm not excited to gamble on any particular event... I'm merely satisfied when I find a good amount of solid plays in any given day.

You're a degenerate, Nicky.

Playoffs aren't my most exciting time to gamble because there are less games to chooses from, but from postseason sports prolly NFL.

Matt, we're all degenerates. One big happy family here.

I'm not. If anything, betting has spoiled any kind of enjoyment I get from watching sports.

Nothing fun about betting an under 5.5 in the NHL and root for the clock to run out.

I'm past the point of caring.

It's all about the win (money). There's no turning back for me.

I can relate to that - it's all about the money for me too.

But I wish I could automate what I do and not know what I've bet on. I would enjoy big sporting events a lot more. Most of the bets go down to the wire anyway, and I don't crave that feeling you get when you know that the next guy to take a shot on the goalie will decide whether you're up or down a dime for the day.

Mine is the weeks leading up to March Madness. I usually go lite on the open rounds of the NCAA tourney

Heck, I used to get excited betting Aussie & Korean basketball at 2 in the morning.

Football season.

If you can't beat the closing line don't bet regardless of how exciting the tourney is. This is why most gamblers lose money.
