    I officially give up gambling! Years and Cash wasted!
    You go to the casino what do u think you're gonna do win and prove their math wrong...yea I'm sure...stick ur money in that slot or craps or roulette wheel and its just a matter of time before your pockets are empty of whatever u were willing to lose...is that fun?

    Bet on a sports game....forget your paycheck for a second you are betting into a line Vegas will take 100s of thousands if not millions of dollars on...you think you have the edge and will put Vegas out of business...you better have some inside info on injuries or fixes cuz otherwise that 5% house edge will eat you alive...not only that your life and stress levels will be far worse for the wear

    If the casinos are sending you freeplays and hotel rooms and dinners its NOT bc they like you its bc they know you're a sucker they can fleece out of his money....reverse the tables go and eat free, use ur freeplays and free suite and free drinks have a good time knowing ur one of the 1% walking out of their with more money than he walked in with...naturally eventually theyll catch on that you're no longer a sucker but who cares at least u ran it up their ass for awhile in return

    I'm sick of the stress of gambling...sick of watching some dumbass throw a ball and whether some dumbass catches it or not...and of course most of all sick of the losing money

    There our sites out there you can pay for which will give you a small edge over the book by betting on teams with so little bet on them (bc they're shitbag unheard of Wyoming/Idaho basketball games that no one pays attention to)...if you buy one of these service they WILL NOTICE UR 500 (along with all the other subscribers 500 bets on Wyoming/Idaho together and will put a delay on your account where it takes like 60 seconds to process ur bet by then of course the line has changed against you and the edge is gone)....these books aint stupid they know that one weak point (the shitbag games with 10 bucks bet on em) and you'll be lucky to make back your subscription payment before every book has you on a 60 second delay

    Anyway moral of the story is I'm done boys...my gambling days are over...good luck and God bless!

          OP - I hear what you're saying. I've noticed this year alone... all the studying... and then when you're wagering on these games all day Saturday and all day Sunday... I'm mentally drained. Like a sick drained. Like an unhealthy drained. This is my 16th year doing this.

          When you're winning... you have this adrenaline rush like a mad man. When you lose... I get tired so fast.

                It's only a gambling problem when you lose.

                Seems we have a lot of losers on this site over the last few days

                  Gambling is like having a hangover

                  When you wake up you say never again ,until you pass a pub and say I'll only have the one beer

                        Good for you. Take up something positive to replace gambling, like exercise or the real estate game.

                              That is what happens when you pay for RAS. They are living off the good years from early 2000's. Now they suck and even when they win the records are padded with bad lines and division two games with under 1k betting limit. You should look up bettingresource.com instead. They not only give you the picks, they have a very good money management that anyone can read for free in their site. On top of picks and the money management they also give you excellent advice on how to manage stress. These ideas work very well but obviously hard to follow as a degenerate gambler. But once you get on with it, it becomes easier...its more like a rehab. Basically this is what they say...

                              - Before you join the picks, read the money management and all the articles in their page. Once you join put aside a bankroll just for their picks and do not use the bankroll with any other service or picks, not even your own picks.
                              - Simply check the email once daily for their picks email, bet the picks as stated in the email and go on with your life.
                              - Don't bother checking scores by refreshing the screen every second or don't watch the games that you bet (believe it or not, this increases the stress by 10 fold regardless of win or lose according to bettingresource because of the ups and down during the game and also because of the valuable time taken away from quality family/friends/other time)
                              - Check the score only the day after, not before you go to sleep (it affects your sleep quality regardless of you having a big downswing or upswing) but bet the new picks according to the picks email. As long as you stick to the money management and the picks, you will withstand all kinds of downswings and grow your bankroll slowly over the months or years.
                              - follow all the picks regardless of what previews you may have read elsewhere. the picks are made with in the realm of money management and it is key to follow all the picks instead of cherry picking. stick to the money management through hard and good times.
                              - As your bankroll grows, re-invest some of the winnings if you originally started with small bankroll and want to increase your bet size but you should also take out some of the winnings. ONce you reach the desired bankroll, don't re-invest the winnings, simply withdraw all the winnings. You can set monthly withdrawal date such as the last sunday of each month. Even when you are in the re-invest mode, slowly take out some of the winnings--your ultimate goal is to withdraw enough money so that you have taken out the cost of service plus your original bankroll. once this is reached, you are betting with free money and things become lot less stressful.

                              that is basically summary of their advice and it looks easy to do but very hard to follow. but when you do follow, it makes thing lot easier. even if you dont use their picks, you can try it with your own picks.

                              TO make it easier to follow, what i do is that i put aside a small bankroll to make my own picks or to follow some forum cappers while i have the dedicated bettingresource bankroll left aside for only their picks. Truth is my bankroll gets burned out and i keep reloading once or twice a month while the bettingresource bankroll is going still strong with the original bankroll. i can see how patience and strict money management can protect your bankroll because there will be times with betting resource where there will be no profit for month or two but if you ride it out, the money management will help you get past that and grow even bigger.

                                              Definitely harder to find an edge these days.

                                                Not yet...but losing 3 grand in the past month has certainly stung but beyond the money the point is that I did nothing wrong or it is to say I wouldn't change anything about my bets...at some point you have to accept that they simply have the mathematical edge...you can either continue giving them more money or quit...your choice

                                                After dumping 3 grand in a real casino theyd probably hook you up with a suite, steak dinner and maybe a nice hooker...bookmaker instead had me forward them a ** email to "prove" my transfer fees to credit me the full fee amount....this after being a customer for 12 years and having lost 3 grand in the past month....they thought I was trying to scam them out of 9 bucks

                                                Go to the casino with 20 bucks in your pocket for gas and rob them out of their comps if they're offering them to ya...beyond that quit...your wallet will get fatter

                                                    Yep, search the I quit gambling threads for quality fade material. Any luck finding anything?

                                                    Love to catch a chasing losing gambler on their last leg bet of the day when loading up and all in.. Winning percentage probably 95% or more on that fade...

                                                    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                    Story - I bought a fish tank just the other day.. 100 gallons...$250 cash after talking down on the phone.. Went to the ATM and pulled out $160 all in 20's.... Didn't have change and either did he to make the $250 sale price when I showed up.. Said to him lets flip a coin for the $10 and you can call or flip it's up to you. He couldn't say no....First words out of his mouth were "I'm not that lucky you call, I'll flip".. I knew I was going to win after he said that and I did..

                                                    LOVE THE FADE when I hear a defeated attitude.. I'm ruthless like that.....

I haven't gambled in casino/sportsbook since last year, and I can stay away from this for the rest of my life, if needed - no problem at all. I have never drunk, smoke or done drugs in my life, and I always work out and can stay on a diet for a long time, though, - so perhaps that's why it's so easy for me to do it.
