Things gamblers due wrong

[pimike]

Ok men and women, I have read post after post on this forum, I have heard gamblers talk in vegas, seen friends, and have done it myself years ago, all make these same mistakes.

1. Get greedy (DON'T GEET GREEDY)
2. Think they have to get their loses back on same day or in 1
game. It may be the only game left.
REMEMBER, "Theres always tomorrow" There is always more games
in otherwords don't chase.
3. Continue betting available money in account when losing

When on a losing streak YOU need to weather the storm, lower bets
or just take the WEEK off.
4. Betting Large Favorites
Large ML spreads will set you back, they do lose, leave alone.
5. Loving a game knowing it will win you just know, but don't double
up.
DON'T be afraid to DOUBLE your bet on a play you just LOVE, looks
perfect. i.e GIANTS last night for me with Randy Johnson at home
after getting #3000. It was a perfect double up game. Streaks,
emotions, home vs away team hitting well verses a team not hitting
well. All all factor into the play.

I'm sure you have been there if I had a dime I would put it on this game. Then that game wins as you knew it would.



I hope this helps, I hate to see people lose in Baseball, for there is so much money to be made if gamblers would just follow the rules of gambling.

Mike:

Solid post and good advice. I'm guilty of making some of the mistakes you listed.

I think Jesus may even love you more because of this post.

I thought that this was going to be helpful advice like "Don't pay more than $75 to cuddle for two hours."

Teela, how much do you charge for cuddling?

I get the impression you'd do it for less than $100.

Yep This is what I am saying, however your only in the sixth inning.

Betting on early games when you really don't like the play just cause you're bored..This also goes for late games, I swear everytime I have a 3-0, 4-0, 5-1 day I go and add a game just because I'm bored and want to get some action and it kills me everytime.

I think today Billingsly turns it around. Texas bats has really only looked impressive game 1 of the series.

TV games are a big NO NO. NEVER play just cause its on TV. If you love the game and find out its on TV well then that is GREAT. But never play just because its on TV.

[deadfish}Pimike will you shoot me in Vegas? Save my Asian bookie the trouble? Thanks player. [/deadfish]

[Teela]

Bread, I think that Mike has learned the fine art of ignoring. It's pretty impressive since few are capable of doing it.

4-2 Dodgers. Enough scoring.
