    Check in if you are not a problem gambler
    Can you go days without making a play? Does gambling give you a rush or do you just do it because you see a good angle?

    I've realiZed many guys here are problem gamblers. They need action. They chase. They tail guys and sweat games.

    Check in if you gamble based on opportunity and not compulsion.

    Checking in,

        Haven't made a play since Sunday, NBA doesn't thrill me (yet)

        I may make a small play on the over in this Brown/Raven shit fest, but that wager is based on a theory, usually when the 1H is low scoring and tight, things open up in the 2H.

        Over 23 is achievable here, I'm betting a whopping 21.00 (RD 5 Dimes) to win a whopping 20 dollars.

        Yeah, that wager will make or break my life lol
        No, I don't need the action, just backing up my opinion with a double saw buck is all.

                    We all do, we get jaded hence suspicious of things we should not be suspicious of.

                    "Why is the line only 3.5 instead of 7, something must be up"
                    Usually nothing is up.

                    Yay! TD Ravens, I only need 16 more football points to collect my wager, come on now Brownies, how about an answer now.

                      Yes I passed, lkid.

                      I do not bet when I don't see angle.

                      Doesn't mean I don't lose a lot of bets though.

                          I do not like bourbon but I love scotch. Bourbon a little too sweet for me.

                          Full disclosure: my father collects scotch Soci have grown up on the good stuff.

                            Yeah I am a bourbon guy as well.

                            Haven't acquired the taste for scotch.

                            I bought Famous Grouse once at the recommendation of the liqour store guy and it tasted like cigarette butts.

                              Not a problem gambler although sometimes I get wrapped up. I usually stop after football season and either cash out or don't reload depending on how well things went.

                                  If you can't go a day without sports gambling I suggest only betting really small on iffy games if you must be entertained... Bet bigger on solid bets..

                                  I'd say that's a good start if you want to make this a long lasting hobby.. Also don't wake up one morning and say I'm gonna bet big on this one play, then you lose and then start chasing.. That's one way to blow your entire bankroll and maybe even get in debt..

                                  There will be days that you lose money.. Let it go... Start over new the next day and forget quickly... Never dwell on your loses...

                                  I've been sports gambling for 20 years now.. I'm still standing.. Friends I know gambled and try to do what I do and end up in GA...No discipline and don't know when to put the brakes on..

                                  Most important word in gambling is DISCIPLINE that goes with any potential vice in your life.. Alcohol, drugs, and other compulsions...etc...

                                                  Mo you are a very disciplined gambler. You let all your money sit at a+ balance and keep staring at that amount and you have convinced yourself you are a winner. Good job

                                                    I've been a successful handicapper for the better part of 10 years. The reason I've been successful was giving my money to the books for the previous 5 and got sick of losing. I have my own math models I use in Football. College Hoops is easily my most profitable investments. This is a GRIND. You have to trust your methods and stick to what is successful for you. I learned by donating about 70k to various bookmakers. I think the Hard Rock added a floor from my donations...

                                                      Not a problem gambler, but not a very good one hmmm guess that would be a problem.

                                                      Ok, yea, I'm a problem gambler. Never mind.

                                                            Only bet cfb and nascar, the things I know. At this point in my life, I think sports are boring as shit so it's easy to not bet nonsense just cause it's on tv.

                                                            I'll tail events like horses or Olympics for something to do.
