    Down another 1k this week

    I think betting is just not for me. I worked the last few week, so i Have 2-3k, So this week hurts but doesnt hurt that much

    I think im down a total of 2k this year to the book. I might just quit, or try to hit a big one and then quit.. What do you guys think?

    I feel you man. First day of the week and already almost maxed out my local acc for 1 day after being up $700 early. It's rough man not even worth betting anymore. Depressing

    stop betting if you need it for income and don't treat it as an entertainment expense

    Lazy-Man, I know how exactly you feel, I was up $500 starting on Teusday-Thursday with a local, I was up $800 on 5Dimes, and that shiet just went downhill. let put it this way, I can never hit the 1k winning on the book, but loss that much several times.

    The reason I bet is for an income, but it is not very profitable this year for me.

    Gambling is a grind. You will have ups and downs. The key is to have a little luck and capitalize big when you can. There is always risk.


    Just take care of what you need to take care of first with your money and then maybe set aside some extra to gamble with what is left over.

    Winning is one of the greatest feelings in the world and losing is one of the worst. The key is to not let your happiness depend on winning. This is easier said than done and takes a lot of will power and thought control. Always look at the glass half full.

    Well the money I have are just expense, Rent is paid, Food i can grind on, It money i can gamble with, but I don't have any types of saving or Rainy day money lol. Last year I was up a grand from sports.

    It more of a control game for me, Maybe becasue i know i have an income coming in, i bet on everthing, To me every game is money to be made, but losses, do hurts.

    Just bet small for fun....you will still enjoy when you win 25 or 50 bucks a game.....the losses do not hurt that much, and when you get on a nice little run you can take a few shots for big money.......it is also hard to get truly buried this way

    Also small parlays are low risk and very high reward

    All I can suggest besides quitting altogether......but who wants to be a quitter?

    With Gambling, that money is gone..... I try to bet small, but those wins dont phase me. It takes so long to get to $500. and then it goes by so quick, when u bet $100, Greed is a bitch!
