I feel like I need to capitulate after tonight.
I needed a big win, so I took all my money out of my crypto accounts ($6k that were just sitting there, getting beaten by the bear market) and threw it into Bookmaker.
I wanted to play it all on the Celtics Heat over. The line was 195.5 points. By the time I withdrew/deposited, the line had moved up to 196.5. Surely I still place my bet, right? It's just one point difference. There is no 195.5 anymore, not even for lower odds.
Placed $6300 to win $5700. I felt like was finally going to have a win. I was watching the game live and the lines moved up to 208.5 at one point. But yet, out of my experience, it's not over until it's over. But still, I needed only 40 points in the last quarter of a conference final game with some of the best athletes in the world.
ALSO, there is no way on Bookmaker to cash out live, which I would have defibitely done at that point.
They kept missing and missing and missing. A 3 pointer got downgraded to a 2 pointer minutes after it was scored. Then the last minute came. Butler shoots a 3 instead of an easier 2. The Heat cannot score anymore and even refuse to foul to stop the clock. The last shot goes in and out of the basket. A player gets fouled but with a second too late.
You cannot make this shit up. It almost feels diabolical how the quarter ends in 39 points. I've had bad beats before, but this feels more like a carefully written script for my ultimate bad beat.
Feeling super depressed and I'm not sure how I will forget this one. I needed a win.
I would have definitely picked 195 or lower, but they only throw one option at you. Most other bookies would have closer alternate lines, but they only had 196,5. Incredible. Couldn't even cash out as they don't have that option. Do I quit Bookmaker or gambling in geneal? How the hell did they manage to architect this lost bet??
