    Once you start going on tilt, it's really difficult to snap out of it before losing everything. Good luck on the recovery!

    Would've been pointless, players like him don't even respond or read comments from non blue checkmarks. Might only work with fringe WTA players like Korpatch who pretty much respond to all their comments.

    Appreciate it, I don't know if the forced 7 day hold is gonna hurt or help cuz when you have nothing to bet with that's when all the locks start appearing magically out of nowhere.

    Appreciate the sentiment but considering this is a gambling forum filled with degens, myself included, that's not exactly practical advice.

    Do you see if you invest in 20,000 on the stock market five years it’s about 70,000 virtually no risk sports betting the same amount of time you’ll lose 50,000 that’s why gamblers broke

    Would've been 700K if I put that 20K in BTC 5 years ago

    Fair enough... hard to come back to that point. Take $1k and buy yourself a nice dinner with a friend then. Take the other $9k and torch your nose and your liver like I’d do. My degen behavior isn’t limited to gambling... I also enjoy drugs, alcohol and whores. I normally spread out my reckless behavior. Fortunately and unfortunately I have the money to bury myself multiple times over. Gift and curse. Hope for the best pal.

    Honest advice, you need to start smaller. I know you’re not gonna listen to this but put in 1k at a time. Recalibrate your mind to accept that as a valuable starting position. The way you gamble, you’re gonna win or lose in the same amount of time regardless of whether you start with 10k or 1k, so cut your losses on the front end. And before you know it you will have $10k in your betting account without having to clean out your bank account to get there.

    That's good advice but as long as I have 10K, I can't psychologically go back to starting with 1K & grinding. It's like getting used to filet mignon & then having to go back to eating McDonald's.

    She definitely does but I'm still doing better than her, even though she's about to get an 8K tax refund check (seems like way too much for having just 1 kid..shady H & R rep.) while I'm only getting 1K.

    This guy is tough to watch

    Can't help but to cheer for him

    But know it's not gonna matter

    As long as there is action

    He thinks only way he's doing

    something is if it's ride or die

    Cyclical

    This is why I say he should start smaller. Many more opportunities to fail that way and eventually if something sticks it would be worth it

    Yup fellas
    Truthfully flat betting best way to go
    Sometimes I see a bet I like more
    Maybe double down, or 3 units
    But never more unless a futures play
    that I like ... and I feel that a longterm
    bet is more skill based with more
    action to decide if your assessment
    of a team/wager was correct or not
    compared to 1 singular game

    One single game is always scary
    to go big on . I love going big on season
    wins wagers

    It's an H & R Block in The Bronx so that would be an emphatic YES!!! Refund should've only been 5K so she's kicking back 1K in cash. Not just The Bronx but I'm hearing this is really prevalent since they basically only work from January to April & esp. with Covid the reps pretty much have to cheat the system like this to get by. (She was even asking my gf if she has any friends who don't claim they're kids as dependents so she could use their S.S. #) Not worth the risk if you ask me since it's still a felony & all you need is one disgruntled customer to drop a dime who doesn't feel like kicking back the cash.

    Just gonna wait till next wk to deposit the full amount even though $1500 available now. Pissed away that amount depositing early gains last wk. on a Rublev Future. Crazy how much BTC is going up (had $9800 in there last night, now $10,400) & I have nothing to show for it.

    Best of luck to you. It took me many years to learn this, but its critical you find a way to stay in the game, whatever the cost. Your going to have to adjust your style, its not sustainable......you know that, but can you change?

    Thanks man, but I'm afraid I've built up too much gambling scar tissue over the last 20+ years to really go back to the basics like focusing on money mgmt. & discipline. The best I could try to hope for is avoid laying heavy juice & going on tilt but even that only lasts for so long.

    Probably the most honest guy on the forum. There’s no doubt it’s tough to go back once you get a taste of waging larger or going all in.

    Dougy, I think you need to listen to your well wishers and tips that we giving you before you place a bet (big)... Its better you post the big plays before betting them...
    Dnt get me wrong, im saying all this because you are on tilt mode right now its quite dangerous...

    Dont listen to all the broke dicks telling you to bet $50 like some kind of jerkoff. Keep betting big, just stop sucking so bad. Have you tried fading morino?
