    The psychology of betting on credit is insane

    I find myself not "feeling" wins when my balance is up because I know I have to maintain that balance in the black til sunday night in order to see those gains, and frankly, me losing that positive balance is a -500 fav...

    even worse, I celebrate my wins when im in the red more because I feel like i'll "owe less' come sunday.

    Whereas on post up books, I of course love winning because i can cash out immediately. Losing is just like "meh" shouldnt have bet that

    Crazy shit

    Believe it or not, i have never stiffed a book or anyone else....that shit is bad karma. You make the bet, or any agreement, and you pay.

    Now pussi books that dont pay or slow pay can go Fuk themselves.

    It is the number one reason why bookies have never feared FanDuel or draft kings. Line of fresh credit every week can't be beat for bettors and bookies alike

    Pros need it to move money

    Too tough with fees coins

    A must for a professional, if your a degenerate NO
