    This is why I hate watching games. There's no way around though, if you are doing a lot of live-betting. You have to try to watch some of the games.

    This is especially bad on a night like tonight. A lot of the MLB games went off at the same time - 7pm est. So you have total chaos around 8:30pm during the "money round" of live betting. And you're trying to bet MLB overnights.

    I thought I lost 2k on the Tor/Cleveland over, but I had the wrong day... Good and bad at the same time.

      Yes I don't really even think too much about which side I have, or which quarter has the edge and how many rebs lebron needs. It just gets confusing. Not to mention when you come back to your SS to see that you weren't even right on what you thought you bet.

          This will happen when I have money on a team I don't particularly like (i.e. Yankees, Cubs, Vikings, Cowboys). It's also why I tend not to bet these teams.

What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

              I see it from another angle, that being a man with balls enough to admit that he made a mistake. Big deal. Rock on J 7.

                I have done that, its a magnified feeling of when you called to get a bet in and you just missed the tip off, first pitch or whatever so you root against yourself since you didnt get the bet in lol
