    Do You Guys Have Gambling Goals Based Off a Deposit??
    Say you deposit $500 do you have a goal in mind before cashouts?

    $500 to get to 2k then take out all winnings??

    I would think many just think the $500 will be $20,000 or just lose it all with no goal???

    Hopefully

    never takeout 100% of balances or never hope to lose it all down to Zero

    takeout just enough to cover some expenses be it rent or a night on the town

        If there is a substantial bonus with rollover, I plan to use that deposit the entire season of whichever sport it may be at the time, so there is plenty of time to meet it.

        If you are depositing at the begining of a season, there is absolutely no reason to not take the bonus

            Your grasp on bankroll management here is astounding.

              Hman so you are that disciplined to make a deposit last once a whole season? One deposit threw football season and 1 deposit threw basketball season and baseball season that would be pretty incredible.

                      If you don't have a goal of when to withdraw, then the money in the account is just a number on a computer screen

                      until the day that it reads zero and you have lost it all.

                          I start off with $300. Make a parlay with that. Then it opens me up for other bets. I made 5 of those just in the last 4 days. I lack discipline. Was at $1600 twice with $300 over the weekend and managed to lose it both times before the Big Game. I usually want to cash out $1200-1500 minimum. That’s the goal. Last night had Lakers -11 second half and Suns -2 second half. Put all my money I had ($382) on it. Dang Lakers. Covered by just 11. So now I have $748 and going to do the same toast. $248 parlay to start off the day. Any picks? Ha!

                            The question is, what level of balance on account so you need to feel "comfortable".

                            Then use that as your base

                              deposit $500. My goal is $1300, withdraw $500 and now I'm even and I have $800 to start with instead of the original $500

                              From there I'm at $800. Next goal would be $1700 and withdraw $700. Now I'm profit $700 and still have $1,000 in account

                              Then with $1,000 it's $3500 and withdraw $1500 and keep $2,000

                              and so on and so on

                                Over the past few years, I have only withdrawn from one sportsbook where that has gone up to deposit into another that has gone down. Have not needed the money to buy anything, so no reason not to just leave it in there and try to keep making it grow.

                                  Isn't that true for every account we have, whether with a sportsbook, bank, stock broker, etc.?

                                    i have had $$$ in a sportsbook and at times actually forget it is real money that started me off. i was younger and nieve during those times. probably my early to mid 20's were full of thinking like that. it was almost as if i never intended to make money and just liked the action part.

                                    now i treat it like a bank account.

                                        No I would never lose all my money in my stock account because I would sell stocks WAYY before they went to zero! And I don't know any way to lose money out of a bank account. My bank doesn't have gambling on its website that would eventually make my balance go to zero!

                                        5 million kudos to y'all for having that kind of discipline bro! I'm twice as old as my mid 20's and I could NEVER leave money in a gambling account! I have to win and get an immediate withdrawal or it will be gone! If I didn't withdraw immediately, then I would just gamble it until the numbers read zero balance! I can't even play at a site that doesn't pay immediately! If a site holds the payout a few days and has that "cancel payout" feature, then I'm cancelling the payout and losing it all before the payout wait time is up!!
                                        Even further, I can't even get a bit-coin payout and hold the btcoin in a virtual wallet! LOL If I don't put the BT-coin on that bit pay creedit card immediately, then I will just send the btcoin back in and lose all of it!

                                            Sounds like the real problem is that you are treating the money in your sports account far differently than the money in your other accounts.

                                              Yes I've got the hugest of gambling problems. Mine is not compulsive, mine is pathological, and I hope I didn't seem rude or argumentative. I just can't have money on a computer screen that I can gamble, or I'm going to gamble it! Like I said, I can't even hold any bit-coin in a wallet or I will send it in and gamble it!
                                              But I can (and have) made TONS of money in the stock market!!
                                              This year was the first year I didn't gamble on sports and I freakin loved it! Who needs the bull-shit? Turnovers, fumbles, missed free throws, every single action in the game that goes against me turns my stomach and makes me ask what the hell did I put money on this shit for, because I sure as hell ain't enjoying it! LOL And then, even if I win the game I bet on, the odds of me taking it into the virtual casino until I lose it all are a million to 1 that I WILL do that! LOL

                                                But if you can deposit and get a 100% bonus, or even 50%, that can be a nice chunk.

                                                And we want to play every day & week anyhow, right?

                                                So that gives us plenty of time to complete any rollover.

                                                But if you're a hit & run player, then of course it's a different story

I just can't have money on a computer screen that I can gamble, or I'm going to gamble it! Like I said, I can't even hold any bit-coin in a wallet or I will send it in and gamble it!
                                                  But I can (and have) made TONS of money in the stock market!!
                                                  This year was the first year I didn't gamble on sports and I freakin loved it! Who needs the bull-shit? Turnovers, fumbles, missed free throws, every single action in the game that goes against me turns my stomach and makes me ask what the hell did I put money on this shit for, because I sure as hell ain't enjoying it! LOL And then, even if I win the game I bet on, the odds of me taking it into the virtual casino until I lose it all are a million to 1 that I WILL do that! LOL
                                                  This is a really great level of self-awareness.

And I don't know any way to lose money out of a bank account. My bank doesn't have gambling on its website that would eventually make my balance go to zero!







                                                              5 million kudos to y'all for having that kind of discipline bro! I'm twice as old as my mid 20's and I could NEVER leave money in a gambling account! I have to win and get an immediate withdrawal or it will be gone! If I didn't withdraw immediately, then I would just gamble it until the numbers read zero balance! I can't even play at a site that doesn't pay immediately! If a site holds the payout a few days and has that "cancel payout" feature, then I'm cancelling the payout and losing it all before the payout wait time is up!!
                                                              Even further, I can't even get a bit-coin payout and hold the btcoin in a virtual wallet! LOL If I don't put the BT-coin on that bit pay creedit card immediately, then I will just send the btcoin back in and lose all of it!
                                                              That last part happens to me often. Discipline is needed. I was down to 300 today. Hit a parlay tie was up to like $1500. Didn’t cash out and now I’m at 900. Last week won $1600 sent to Bitcoin and left it in my wallet. Guess what happened? Sent it back. I’m going to try your method.

I was FLYING HIGH!!! But then I lost like 600 points on here and i knew that was equal to about $25. Man I was playing golf with my friend and I bought his golf, I bought his beer, but I KNEW that I was going to go to the casino afterwards and try to get my $25 back!!! I drove 2 hours, go there, lost about $50 at first, then I won over $100 so I HAD MY GOAL! But did I leave? Of course not! I lost all my $500 that I had brought with me, and then went to the ATM before midnight and drew out the max $500 more, then lost it, then I drew out $500 after midnight then I lost it too! So that is $1500 right. I come home and buy into that sorrento stock trying to get my money back and my dumb ass lost over 30 grand!! (Go Look at sorrento stock in August, right when it started to fukin tank, I had bought a TON of it right before that!)
                                                                    I sat here in the bed watching it go down every day until I sold it for an over $30 grand loss.
                                                                    I will just end it there because you don't want to hear that I had no life at all for weeks until I tried to get it back and then I lost THIRTY MORE!!! OMG I truly thought I wasn't going to survive it!! ( And that is also when these 2 or 3 stupid jokers on here with their rude comments became NOTHING to me!! Those guys have their own sick problems and they have no idea how to be congenial to others!)

                                                                    To end this story, I battled back in the stock market and I have somehow finally recovered those $60 grand of losses that happened all because I lost 600 pizza points on here!! LOL I'm like that guy on the movie JAWS when he says "I'll never put on a life jacket again." My gosh I will never go pro on here again! I lost $25 in pizza points and I also lost my freakin mind!
