    Attitude in Gambl'in

    How much does attitude affect your betting each day? Alot of guys on this forum seem to be really negative while other guys like TT Warrior for example seem to have a great out look each day. I felt myself falling into this trap and a few weeks ago I decided to change my out look not only on gambling but on life in general. Any thoughts on how attitude affects your gambling habits????

    Attitude or mindset is everything.

    No where is it more apparent for me than on the golf course. Putting green to be exact. So many times have I studied a putt, practiced my stroke, etc etc and missed wildly. Then there are the other times where I can just walk up to it confidently and put a nice solid stroke on it and it turns out to be gorgeous.

    Losing begets more losing. Just coming out of a helluva slump myself.

    Sledge, you're good peoples, but tt has serious medical issues in his head. If we all had IQs of 65 we'd think everyday was new and exciting.

    I'll be able to answer this question for you in a few days. Absolutely barreled in from the bad breaks I've gotten this month. Really making me reconsider why the fukk I ever started gambling in the first place.

    When I'm winning I make bad bets, when losing I hold off and re-evaluate as to not chase. Haven't hit this low gambling before, so I guess it'll be a learning moment.

    We must have picked two of the most mentally frustrating hobbies you can find. I still haven't been able to figure out why that happens. I've fully committed to the just trust it and putt mindset, and it didn't make a difference. Yet anytime I say fuk it, I'll roll in that 8ft putt.
