I lost track about 6 years ago

[poker_dummy101]

Sports betting is the reason why I had to move down in stakes at poker. If I only had bankroll management at sports as I do in poker I might be ok.

That's cool. Been there done that! You have alot to look forward too. Wait til you start making some real money then you will be able to get deep up a wild hogs ass like the rest of us have been at one point or another. Watch out for getting married. Woman, don't have much patience for losing gamblers.

[lyon804]

My favorite quote from a guy on SBR was awesome. One guy had mentioned he was getting married and he found this perfect chick right! He said something like. My account is at$0 somewhere and his fiancee was asking him win he was going to reload it. He said " I know she is the one because she supports my gambling. The other dude was like...... " She might support your gambling, but she sure as hell won't support your losing" Nothing could be closer to the truth..

I am a small bettor compared to others. I put my $100 into BetUs and worked that up into about $1500 in around 3 months off football. Then cashed out $500 and got that like a month later. I found SBR by looking up BetUs seeing if they payout or are supposed to be that slow. After bad reviews at the time, I pulled all the money out and put in under $1000 at Bookmaker which would be my main account.

The rest of my money in accounts are from SBR contests. I have probably had money at all accounts we have used for contests, but don't cash all of them.

Lately though I haven't picked any winners. You can see the results with how awful my Beat the prick contest is going. Like 600th

At the end of the day I have invested $100 of my own money into betting. I also put in $20 in Bodog to play poker.

This man is one of the smartest men around! He don't bet because he don't have to.... He is on the right side of the action by taking the bets rather than making them....Mexi, Let me ask you? How many SBR points did you have when you decided to start booking?

[Nickelicious]

In the past year, I'm guessing I've placed about a half million dollars in bets (including online casinos) and I am down about $10,000. Online casinos were my downfall. I've won up to $14,000 in casino betting in one night and also lost almost $20,000 at the same casino in one night (that was one bad fukin night). I've probably lost $20,000 in casinos and made about $10,000 in sports betting in the past year.

The Morrison NBA system made me about $25,000 last season and it is off to a great start this season as well. I made $10,000 or so with the MLB system this summer. But I lost most of that with college basketball and football. I am training myself to stay away from non-system betting, but I am still a degenerate and I've paid through the nose for my stupidity.

I am done with touts and I am done with online casinos (unless I'm really drunk and trying to recapture the old magic, but I limit myself to just a couple hundred dollars on minor books like BetPhoenix). In general, I am moving away from higher-stakes gambling altogether, at least for a while. The stress is too much. After taking a break, I hope to come back to it with more discipline than I have had in the past.

But what really makes me ill is the whole mess with overseas internet gambling. As an American, it's just a nightmare to deal with all of the illegal bullshit. Managing the transfers and reloads just sucks the fun right out of it. After my kids are grown, I will either move to Vegas or online gambling will be legal in the States. Not that I want to become a pro, but I know this can be a fun and profitable hobby. But it just ain't worth the trouble with the current laws in the U.S.

[flyingillini]

I have been betting on Sports for 19 years and really have no clue how much I am down. I am down though. I go to Vegas on average 9 times a year but it has been 10 the last three years. I go to all the fights, I am a 52 minute plane ride there. I shoot craps when I am there and love to go skiing...I sometimes do well and other times lose.. I would say lifetime over all... sports betting probably down 30k... shooting craps down maybe 15-20k.. It is all about having fun and a good time for me, thankfully it is for pure entertainment for me and nothing more than that.

True I can. I have plenty of gambling money, so that isn't a problem right now. Just pointing out that my picks have been terrible lately

I do bet with money and points. Just saying I have invested $100 of my own into gamling. SBR has supplied me the rest, which I am thankful for. I used to bet points with Rich Boy and Bigdog/Nickelicious. Rich Boy is done and Bigdog runs his own book now.

I started with about 250 points and 10 point payouts on September 1st. I had 10 posters place action with me when Ijustwant2bepaid was the first book here at SBR and had all the action. The rest is history and now I am over 10,000 points.

What I lost in touts I have covered in Poker and Futures. That is basically all I bet and I enjoy it as a profitable hobby. I actually don't mind online poker but on the felt is where I would rather have my money.

Wait! You went from 250 pts to over 10,000 in a few months?? Are you talking about last September?? Only been around here a week, but I book with you here.

[GELATINOUS CUBE]

wow lyon you are literate. In my lifetime I'm actually down a couple hundred bucks.

Like I won a huge bet last weekend. Then this week I doubled my account and doubled it again, then lost one of them (Oddsmaker.com no big deal) by going all in a third time. But tonight I lost big. Just when I get rolling, I think I can just point at a team and it will win automatically. Then I lose, I realize Portland actually fit my system model to cover just as much as Memphis, but I took Memphis. If I looked at it long enough, I would have seen that Portland would cover tonight, in spite of the strikes against it. But, I just made my decision too quick and went with it. Because I've been winning. No I'm negative a few hudred bucks.

Overall, I win when I need to, then blow it off and after 20 years, I'm down a few hundred, like I said. But it's been a pretty good run. Just got carried away today. I really hate losing a large bet. Dammit.
