    Of course man. You ever play sports? Sometimes you are ice cold and other times hot as hell. It’s like hitting a baseball... you might go 0-20 and then get the key hit and out of the rut. Keep swinging.

    Hockey bad for me and chasing with live lines even worse. I’m going to be out of the box soon like Bob Probert looking for a good bet/fight.

    JJ’s spreadsheet makes you wonder what the hell he is still doing gambling. You then see a video of how frail he looks and have all the answers you need.

    No - I will win over time but we do go thru slumps even when grinding and keeping bets consistent..

    Just cap harder and work the numbers and trends and don't go by feels and hunches and you will always climb out of that slump you are in... Chase hard when desperate and losing and you will probably lose entire bank roll and go into debt..

    BIG NO NO!!.. Degen you will be if you do!!!

    gotta reset , sometimes u lose and then take small break then lose lose lose, just gotta give it time, usually do this and run up 5k - 10k but then eventually it feels like you can’t win and are in danger of losing it all, just gotta reset like 4-5 days off minimum

    Sometimes it's just pure chance and gambling variance. Some of the time in some small way you're contributing to the bad luck you 'seem' to have with bad logic, bad accounting, bad analysis, and bad judgement. My advice is to step away until you get back on an even keel.

    OG poster yes of course, think everyone gets like that. Currently sports are messed up so I wouldn't take a short term dip to serious. Always re analyize look at different angles. Take notes for each sport during season come back stronger the following season. Albiet its a never ending learning curve you will find a long term groove
