    Nothing like a good beat.
    Bet over in-game on Toronto/Oakland 11 1/2. Gave up when it went extra innings. I get a Grand Slam in the bottom of the 10th inning to make it 12.

    Never get emotionally attached to your bets regardless whether you win a +900 or lose a -3000 (Hi Seaweed).

    Every loss is just a loss...every win is just a win.

    Treat it like mathematics with a pulse - numbers go up and down and it does absolutely nothing to your emotions.

      After all these years, I'm normally numb to my bets. I never watch the games and haven't had an opinion in forever.

          You should watch it. I for example, do enjoy playing sports and love watching hockey - bets in or not. I sometimes forget that I even bet on the game.

          That's when you separate yourself from a miserable life of a gambler and learn how to enjoy it.

                  It was not the outcome that you were looking for - yeah.

                  Pissed? nah..why would you get pissed about some bet, that you made with your own hand?

                  Do better next time, but don't ruin your mood over some silly bet.

                          That is no fun.


                          I agree it is bad to make emotional decisions but I think you should enjoy your wins. Wth

                          Nice hit shoer

                                  I never watch a game that I have money on as it is happening. I will watch it after the fact. I usually do anything else that I can to avoid it. Usually doing something with the kids.

                                  Watching it is as good as a jinx. I can shake a loss quick enough emotionally, bankwise . . . well with my system it can take awhile.

                                    Had BJs RL, chalked it up as an L. Turns out to be a W. For the most part, these even out but nice to get a W when for sure you assumed an L!!!

                                        How about that Nats Brewers game last night? 2-1 into the bottom of the 8th. Total was 9. 6 runs to spare with 3 outs to go. 13 total runs to fly way over the total.
