    Nothing like a good beat.

    Bet over in-game on Toronto/Oakland 11 1/2. Gave up when it went extra innings. I get a Grand Slam in the bottom of the 10th inning to make it 12.

    Never get emotionally attached to your bets regardless whether you win a +900 or lose a -3000 (Hi Seaweed).

    Every loss is just a loss...every win is just a win.

    Treat it like mathematics with a pulse - numbers go up and down and it does absolutely nothing to your emotions.

    After all these years, I'm normally numb to my bets. I never watch the games and haven't had an opinion in forever.

    You should watch it. I for example, do enjoy playing sports and love watching hockey - bets in or not. I sometimes forget that I even bet on the game.

    That's when you separate yourself from a miserable life of a gambler and learn how to enjoy it.

    It was not the outcome that you were looking for - yeah.

    Pissed? nah..why would you get pissed about some bet, that you made with your own hand?

    Do better next time, but don't ruin your mood over some silly bet.

    I never watch a game that I have money on as it is happening. I will watch it after the fact. I usually do anything else that I can to avoid it. Usually doing something with the kids.

    Watching it is as good as a jinx. I can shake a loss quick enough emotionally, bankwise . . . well with my system it can take awhile.

    Had BJs RL, chalked it up as an L. Turns out to be a W. For the most part, these even out but nice to get a W when for sure you assumed an L!!!

    How about that Nats Brewers game last night? 2-1 into the bottom of the 8th. Total was 9. 6 runs to spare with 3 outs to go. 13 total runs to fly way over the total.
