    Heading Down Tilt Street Need Advice

    O.k., here's my FML story for the day. I got a nice juicy bonus from a sportsbook. $1,000 on a $3,000 deposit, 5x rollover. I was going to start to work on the rollover by taking a baseball team and hedging against them on live betting. Take the Marlins for $1,000 at -150. Giants were +155 at one point when the Marlins were batting in the bottom of the second so I go to hedge and my power goes out. Whole house is dead. No internet and no wireless. After waiting for a little bit I try and log on via my phone and can't log into the site(live in the country with poor cell coverage). I can however open my MLB app and see scores. So I'm trying and trying to log in. See the Marlins go up 1-0. Great! Now I can really hedge. Still no power, still can't log into sportsbook. End of the 5th inning and i see 1-1. Crap, now I definitely want out. About 10 minutes later the power comes back on. I refresh the website and scores on my computer just in time to see 3-1 Giants, 4-1 Giants, 5-1 Giants. $%%# B*LLSH*T!!! Well not much I can do now.

    About an hour goes by and realizing that the Marlins are toast I'm researching the Angels Mariners game and decide to back the Angels. 10 minutes to game time, go to log in and BAM! power goes out again. Crap! I go to my phone to access my normal sportsbook (not where I got the bonus) which I can log into no problem. I wait for everything to load and was going to put $1,500 on the Angels and try to hedge (by losing in the sportsbook with the rollover) if the Angels got the lead. Game starts at 9:10 and I get to the screen to load my bet... and my phone dies!!! Can't plug it into the wall because I have no power. Of course the Angels go up 2-0 in the first and I could of hedged with no risk immediately. B^LLSH*T!!!!

    Power comes back on (of course!) and I try to get St Louis +1.5 +170 twice to win $800. Both times the system kicked my bet back saying wagers are no longer being accepted. Of course ST Louis loses 10-9.

    So here's my question. What's the best way to get my $3,000 out of this sportsbook and into my normal one? There is no way I'm going to try and rollover $20,000 at this point. I just want out and to start from scratch. Going on a weekend gambling trip today and Vegas next week and really don't want to end up on tilt. I'm still o.k. with putting the $$ at minimal risk and not looking for some foolproof way to get it all out, but what's the smartest way to try and do it?

    Best rush you'll ever feel. What's so bad about tilting anyway?
