    Have no respect for small time bettors
    If you bet $20/game, for example.

    1] Even if you consistently win with a 1% edge, your profit is nothing.
    2] If you consistently lose you do not even get a thrill because you're betting peanuts

    What's the point?

    Have more respect for a guy that bets a dime once per year than a guy who bets $20/game 50 times per year

    Mathy it is the challenge, at times when I was low on cash I was betting $1 per game at bet365 and after a while it felt like life or death because I had like $100 to my name. It is all relative.

      sometimes i wish i bet 20$ when i have bad nights taht i go 3-16.. i envy those kids that say they got killed tonight and lost 110$.. you dont' want to know how much i lose when i go 3-17.. i had a great week 2 weeks ago, slept like a baby.. but since the all star break, boy do i wish i could have bet 20$ a game instead.. i'd be a lot happier now.

      those small bettors is ok cause they still get the high and excitement betting 20$ because they have 800 in the bank only, as a 10 dime bettor who has 4 million dollars..

      everyone goes with what they have.. so the high is still the same..

        You're assuming everyone does it to make money, plenty of people do it to add some fun and excitement to games or so that they have a vested interest in an outcome. Most people gambling in an effort to make money are going to lose anyway, may as well lose small.

            Okay fair enough if you are actually that poor...

            But if you make decent money, how are you adding any excitement? The $20 swing on the game you're watching is equivalent to deciding whether or not to call Brocky for a pizza delivery.

                                Reminds me of in the casino, all the screaming and cheering isn't from the guy who's winning at the $3000 a hand minimum Blackjack table, its the guy who bet 5 bucks and got blackjack. You can still get a lot of enjoyment betting a lot smaller.

                                  cincinnati bowtie 169 up, 1429 down
                                  When a male inserts his erect penis into the mouth of an invalid while using the person's ears as a form of power steering.
                                  Was working the afternoon shift at the Happy Acres Home when Mrs. Norman in B12 was gasping and pointing to her mouth; I knew immediately that she wanted a Cincinnati bowtie.

                                          I get just as excited when I win a dime as when I win $25. The only difference is the amount payed. I really try to take the emotions out of sports and stock market investing. It will keep you sane.

                                            its all relative to your total bankroll, my net worth not including assets is about 50,000( im only 19 dont judge me), so i bet 200 a game, if i win like 600-800 in a week i feel good about myself, if i had 100 bucks to my name and i won 30 bucks in a week betting 4 bucks each id prab still feel good.

                                                  BTW.....congrats on again being a dumb ass, here we go again.....those are plays since fukking July 19th, as in every day it will be updated. As in a month from now, there will be more plays and more numbers to brag about.

                                                  And yes, this is a fukking gambling forum, so yes saying to take the Nats and the Twins is USEFUL. Stop trying to act like a tough guy you dumb fukk.

                                                  I can keep making you look stupid if you want asshole

                                                    1st. don't act like your big time, your not
                                                    2nd. It doesn't matter if I bet $5 or $5,000, the point is winning money and having fun doing it. It's a personal preference what you bet based on income and how much you like an individual gm.

                                                            1] Even if you consistently win with a 1% edge, your profit is nothing.
                                                            2] If you consistently lose you do not even get a thrill because you're betting peanuts

                                                            What's the point?

                                                            Have more respect for a guy that bets a dime once per year than a guy who bets $20/game 50 times per year
                                                            yeah son, i bet $20-$50 a game and i don't ever have to worry about telling my kid's that i was a scumbag and lost the freaking house,what's the freaking matter with you? telling people you have "no respect" for them because they don't risk their flipping live's.for what? so they can get you're approval? yeah right,your nothing!
