More People quit Gambling During Baseball Season Than Any Other
I have been noticing this lately. A ton of guys are getting out of the game. Most just can't keep up with the daily grind of the baseball season. Baseball is so long and such a grind for gamblers.

Many posters have lost their shirts. I wish it were Rubyn and Teela only.
Bread, my inbox is still empty. What gives?

Most guys quit gambling after football it during football
baseball is a low volume sport where the average guy does not bet so therefore you do not see a lot of guys quit

when i was booking back in the mid 90's... we'd have 200 customers betting NFL every week.. then once NFL was over.. we had like 26 customers left.. they all disappeared..
then as soon as NFL started and it was Week 1.. we had 230 customers again.. they all popped up again..
always was like this each and every year..

Not cheap to bet bases seven-days-per-week.

I cash out more often in baseball season than in football season. With daily games I don't have to wait till the weekend like football to bury the books. I trebled my balance on Tuesday with a 12-3 night.

Why would I need to check it, your word is your bond and is just a reflection of your integrity right?

Baseball tests money management more than any other sport. I think a lot of people that are "taking a break" wish they were still in the game but need to take time to refine their system of staking bets. Even if you're in a losing season, there's no need to stop wagering recreationally so long as you take honest stock of your expected performance and reduce your wagers accordingly.

Baseball is by far the hardest sport to win at. It's a crap shoot day in day out. You have to pick yours spots very carefully. The more people bet bases, the more they lose. Less is definitely more in bases.
Every season it zeros out bankrolls, just ask Pete Rose. Lot of people say it doesn't but gamblers love lying about how much they win and lose.
If you want to go broke, bet bases everyday.

Not sure where you are getting your Data from? The amount of people that quit gambling on SBR means nothing. There is do drop off if you're a true gambler.

Must admit I quit right after the NBA Finals. MLB is insane to keep up with and completely unpredictable. Unless someone is spoon feeding me I don't have the energy to bet the bases or at least Ill wait till post season
