Just Amazing how a Gamblers Life can go

[THam12]

I can honestly feel your pain because I am also a casino junkie. But in the last two months I have given up the online casinos, signed on with a local, and am sticking to sports betting.
1. The stress relief is penetrating amazing.
2. I am actually profiting. I'm up $600 this week.
3. Actually get a damn payout rather than blow it all online in casino.

Ban yourself from every damn casino. Youre doing exactly what I did before "well I've banned myself from site A and B but I may try site C for betting soon." You know whT you'll do, you'll try your luck in casino on site C and get whooped.

Your math is stupid. You're not at 46,000 if you cashed out 46,000 and have deposited lots of times since then... What's your profit/loss?
Jesus.

Yeah, I was starting to question the numbers. Not that they were wrong, but what are we NOT seeing here?

Either way, still not a smart approach. The smart approach is usually a lot more boring than thrill-jockeys want to deal with. I wish you the best here cap, but the casino isn't your only issue.

[captrobey]

Are you counting and/or hole carding? If the answer is no, you have no business being in a casino.

No i have never counted cards you cannot online anyway.

[captrobey]

the problem here is you want sympathy and for someone to tell you its all ok

truth is you fukked up over and over

get a fukkin grip, if you cant do that on your own...which is obviously true..then seek help

you, right now, are a fukkin loser

dont take that as me bashing you

time for you to look within and realize that clown

You are not bashing me? Yea you are. You call me a fuckin loser and a clown. You pretty much are just an asshole plain and simple.

Jesus.

What do you mean my math is stupid? That is what i cashed out. I start low and build it up so when i hit i am way ahead. of my own cash i have deposit around $6000 compared to cashing out $46500 so i am ahead.

[captrobey]

It's not a one or the other thing. Ban yourself all together for a year. If you really wanna kick the shit. You'll never change bro. You will find a casino t play in. Stop it all for a year and then ease back into sports . Get a local bookie.

I am trying the ban the casinos thing if i can do that and just stay in Sports i will be Ok. I just cannot go in the casinos. I was able to keep myself out of Sportbets casino. I am also taking a couple weeks off no depositing. If i cannot at least do that then i really will not be able to stay out of the casinos.

I know you are right. I am banning them. I have Betus and Sportbet banned. The Virtual was already banned at Youwager i need to Ban the Live there too. I do not play at DSI anymore so no need there.

Capt, I've enjoyed your posts. As a fellow SBR Pro, I'm rooting for u. Try to play within your means + have fun w/ it.

I'm trying to get the link btw u and the boat in your avatar. Are u captain of that ship? Is it a metaphor?

So you're up $40000 and complaining about losing.
Find a different hobby?
You're thrill chasing . You got a lucky hit and got up that amount and now you're chasing it. Stop

[captrobey]

I never said that was my net for the year. But because i start off low when i do hit with how i bet i end up ahead. I only do $150-$500 . Rarely though do i go over $400 to start. As long as i can get a decent bonus. I typically wait until i get an offer which comes a couple times a month. The $46500 i won was $350 to $20000 at JB and $380 to $10000 at JB . Then $360 to $16500 at YW . I think thats right .I also win enough over that to cover the fees so that is what i net. That way if i started with like $1000 and lost it right away at least it keeps the amount i deposit down more.

The one that hurt the most recently was the $18600 one. I had it i was where i wanted to be. I had no reason to even go in the casino but i did. But honestly the casino is the issue. Yea i have lost some big bets sports betting . The 3 in particular including last nights. If it would have hit i would have been over $9000 close to my goal. To me it is worth the risk to take that shot at that point. I liked the game the numbers were all there . It just lost. And i am Ok with that. What i am not Ok with is me losing that same $5400 in the casino because then i never give myself the chance at that shot in sportsbetting.

Have you not read what i have said wow. I am complaining about losing in the CASINO. Yes , i am not happy that the 3 games all lost since the $46500 if even 1 won that would be another $10000 . And 2 of 3 had a great chance the first one lost in the last seconds. But the losses in the Casino right there if i just stuck to Sportsbetting the $18600 i should have been easily able to get to $20000 and the $7000 to $10000 had i not got stupid and went in the Casino. Right there could have been $30000 more. But i blew it in a casino that i had 0% to win in. Even if 1 of those 3 won and i avoided the Casino instead of $46500 i could have been at around over $70000 . But i blew it going in the casino.

Just look up USS EXULTANT . That was my ship i was stationed on. She was a minesweeper. It is gone now though years ago. Charleston SC is where i was stationed. No i was not Captain lol. But i was one of only 3 crewmen that could actually helm the ship. That turned out bad because when you get only to sleep 6 hours a day they want you to steer the ship for 4 of them.

Luckily i other then last year when i had my Tropicana meltdown i have been within my means. I have a good paying job luckily.

[captrobey]

Lol true.

[Ralphie Halves]

Well shoot us an update then a few months from now and let us know how the casino ban changed things. A step in the right direction, regardless.

[MMANick]

Didn't you just say you're taking a break, buddy?

I will let you know as i go along .

[captrobey]

I have . I said i was for a couple weeks. I only used the free money at Sportbet not my own. I will this Friday deposit somewhere. I have already been called by a couple books and i told them i am not depositing anything until this Friday.

[BeatTheJerk]

I happen to like Cap. He’s real af as far as “figures” & down to earth unlike most on here. I’m rooting for a solution for you to maximize your profits. That’s what he’s seeking out basically in his threads.

Thank you. I have always been honest from day 1. I just expect the same courtesy i give everyone else here. I do not name call or call people liars. I come here for support and talk to people who also have my weaknesses and get ideas that can help me. I post picks too i do not give "locks" that does not exist. But i go by the numbers and try to give picks that have an edge with them. When i get on a roll that is when i can win my money. And yes i am trying to look at myself and work on the best way to win the most that i can. The best way to do that is look at money i lost in the casino. Which is a staggering amount. So i come here looking for people that have dealt with this problem and get some ideas how to kick it. Maybe there is a way i did not think of. I cannot get help i tried that twice and they will not help unless i like lose everything . But i have a good job so i can always stay afloat. So the best idea here so far is banning everything. So i will try that with all of them . Maybe when they are not accessible right away i can force myself to stay out. It worked on Sunday. I was so tempted when i was at $7800 but the casino was gone and when i clicked and saw that i just left and continued sportsbetting. So it did work.

Using free money is not taking a break brotha sorry to break it to you. Youre gambling..... And you're in the casino.
Could've left that shit for two weeks.

[captrobey]

Yea maybe idk it did not feel like the same because it was free money . I figured if i lose it big deal it was free anyways. I lost it and that was that. Other then that i have not done anything gambling wise but come on here . So i will just relax until Friday. Trust me i have been tempted but i figure i am not depositing a cent of my own money until this Friday.

You are right i probably should have not gone in the casino should have blocked it even though it is free money. But it is blocked now and i have not gone in after that. The casino is like a drug but i cut that off now i have to keep it like that.

If i can block the casinos i think i will be Ok . The only one i may not be able to is GTbets i think i tried before and they told me no. But other then that i should be able to block all the other ones.

[captrobey]

Good stuff, capt. I'll be rooting for u. Good luck.

Thank you.

online casinos are rigged they will even tell you the odds aren't the same as real casino games, everything is favored toward the house be a smart gambler don't help out the house anymore than they need

[lonegambler23]

Yea i know they are rigged that is the thing i kept going in anyway. Every single one the only one that i have ever had any kind of continuous luck in has been GTbets. And only when i bet low. Other then that no others.

[captrobey]

I most of the times i lose the big amounts is when i try to round something off thinking i have so much in there i only need a little . Like the $18000 +. I was actually at $18600 . Thinking i only needed a little then i stop at $19000 . And i just kept losing. The more i lost the more mad i got. I do care about the money. But when i get in those modes and the dealer goes on those insane runs the more mad i get and the larger the bets. At one point i started betting $2500 a hand trying to get it back. The worst hand was i had 2 aces and i split the against a 7. I actually got a 21 and a 20 . The dealer got 21. So is still lost. Its funny because out of the hands i played that was the only time i got a 20 or 21 and i still lost. I did not even need to go in there at $18000 + i could have just got it there through sportsbetting. I did that at $16000 last year at DSI the same thing. That is where it hurts the most. When i get it up there $18000,$16000,$7000, a couple at $4500 instead of just sportsbetting i lost it in casino.

But the $18600 one is what made me do the thread about needing help . Because actually pulled myself away that night and was not thinking casino i was happy and where i wanted to be in place to get to $20000 sportsbetting. Then next morning i went in and looked and ended up in the casino thinking i can get to $19000 . I do not even know why i did that but i did. I mean i know what i was thinking but i did not need to at all. I was not even betting that heavy at first but after losing over and over it just got worse and worse.

I mean , i think i wold have been better on doing a -1400 tennis bet for $400 then going in the casino you know.

I saw this day in and day out as a pit boss. Regulars would say, I just need to get to $5k and I'm out...Then they get to like $4,800 and start forcing things only to lose it all. Try to set a mental stop loss.
