    With poor money management, I hate seeing these young kids lose...
    Unfukkinreal, betting entire rolls on 1 game. They LOVE action, love the rush, love knowing they could almost double their bets with one game. These kids LOVE action ONLY. Sad to see them slowly work their way up to some cash, instead of buying mommy and daddy presents they piss it all away in one game.

    Sammy, poor judgment. Patty, poor judgment. Unfukkinreal boys.

    I've noticed the same thing. There's no way these young people can afford to lay $1000 on a game. That's no way to live, broke, and waiting on the next paycheck.

      The amazing thing is these kids reload the next day and back in action betting 20 a pop. They should be betting 20 dollar units at most.

          it wasn't a bad bet IMO. Was guaranteed to be up $1430 if I lost, which I did. The bookie is on a week to week basis anyway. Today start fresh, betting $100 a game.

          Plus, I got $650 from Wagerchief, so it was worth the gamble.

          Shit happens.

          Thanks for the look out though Deuce

                I have poor money management skills. That's why I don't bet for real anymore. Bankrupt @ 25 taught me a lesson or two.

                    Just imagine Sam when you are down 1100 1 week to the bookie you will say to yourself i should not have bet that cards game. Just try to learn from guys who have been in the game for a long time

                                  I don't practice money management as well as I should but betting 4-$500 on certain games doesn't effect all mid20's people. My wife and baby are living extremely well --even after I take a big hit--

                                    Keep going for it kids. Blow your wads when you're young.
                                    That's how you can be a high roller.

                                      I guess you live and learn. I've done some stupid things in my betting career. Like wagering 1500 on a live game to win an extra 50. I had already won 287, but i covered the remaining money at the point of a near blowout. The team that was getting blown out winds up hitting the spread on a 3 with 1 second left. You live and learn, but i guess for the majority ya they just keep doing it and never learn.

                                                    You have to account that we have a lifetime to make this money back. I practice money management and I'm strict to it but someone at the age of 21 can take more risk than someone in their 40's or 50's. I'm not a vet in sports betting but I know this is true in the stock market.

You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                                                            this shows the ignorant fukk will never learn. when you cant admit fault/failure, you never progress.
                                                            probably better to just write him off as a shitty handicapper/losing gambler and send him on his way

                                                              money mgmt has only 1% to do with it.. i don't care if you have the best money mgmt in the world.. i don't care if you never chase. i don't care if you bet within your means at all times..

                                                              IF you are playing into shit lines like laying -4.5 when line is -4, or going over 41 when total closes at 39.5, YOU WILL GO BROKE..

                                                              This game is only 1% money mgmt. the rest is getting the best line at all times. that's how you'll win..
