Do You Feel Better About Yourself After A Good Day Of Gambling?

[Cougar Bait]

I feel the same win or lose

Mood changes happen, but never feel better about myself as a person

Some guys get really amped up though on a losing day

[THE PROFIT]

I always feel better about myself. I know that after a great day gambling I will be able to do good deeds toward humanity. I help single mothers feed their children & young girls get a college education one dollar bill at a time

hitting a 4 teamer does make me feel good

I won today but it was a very small win and I don't feel all that great cause I had an 8-TEAMER mixed money lines and spreads that only needed Alabama to JUST win.

I won my hockey regulation only play that made the day positive but that parlay would have been super sweet.


Answering your question though, I always feels crappy when I lose and happy when I win. However as far as blogging goes it is far easier to be entertaining writing about a loss. Wins are kind of boring to describe.

Yes of course

Some guys take it out on their wives or girlfriends if they lose

Of course, most of that is mere hyperbole

winning changes my whole attitude about things. if i am having a losing week most of the time i am miserable. winning week and i just feel different. really sad how gambling takes over someones life.

I usually smack one out after a real good day of sports betting.

[pavyracer]

I felt good until the FSU kicker missed a FG as time expired to kill a 10 team parlay. Haven't stopped drinking since.

pavy did you have a hedge opportunity before that game started or was it just a big pile of games going at once?

no hedge opportunity.

Great question, CB!

After doing this for almost 15 years, I have learned to take the good wins along with the bad beats.

I go to bed with the same mindset every night regardless of how I did that day.

Have a great Sunday!

I try to not let losing affect me, but often its a losing battle.

[sportscardheaven]

yes for sure i do no doubt

[B1GER1C828]

always feel good after a good day of gambling.

[Gonad]

No one to BLAME but myself for a good day today...

[tanner40]

I have had two 7-0 days in my life the year I have been gambling and that feeling is nearly unmatchable

[Reno Paul]

I normally feel good after a winning bet or day....But I'm more even-keeled about a losing day....I just take it in stride.

Always a next day.

[Bigmikesm]

Feel like a new man after a winning day. Always want to spend the winnings though.

[jjgold]

I feel actually a little down when I win and have no idea why. I like when I am in the hole and know a few games left to get out as the feeling is unreal.

[RonPaul2008]

It's certainly a good feeling, but winning or losing doesn't change how I feel about myself.

[Mr. Jones]

Been at it too long to get real excited one way or another. Don't bet large amounts anymore anyway.

[JOHON8]

The important thing is not to have that big of a mood swing between winning and losing.

You will be happy when you win, you can't stop that, but if you become a totally different person then you got issues IMO. Simply because the extent that you will be happy when you win, you will be sad when you lose. Try and keep it on a equal level and you'll be fine emotionally.

[Iwinyourmoney]

I feel like a big shot all day when I do good

[jjgold]

I feel worse about not being able to get laid at all

That is a horrible feeling when you see other guys with broads and your alone at at any age in life

I am depressed about it

How are you lonely with all those black hookers in Newark you always talk about?

[Hoja Verdes]

I had a real nice 'pick me up' yesterday. Been treading water with a local here and haven't had a truly good day against him in over a month, my figure was sitting at -350 going into yesterday. I hit 3 Dr. Bob plays, luckily the 3 of his that won, and cleared right under a dime. I'm starting to wind down the football season, so that was absolute perfect timing.

Could not have said it better, sad but true. It's the difference of being extra nice to wife and kids or walking around miserable.

[magynuck]

This is one of the hardest things to overcome if you do this full time. When you have a good day at work,
you feel great. When you don't, you have to work at it. You can rationalize you make 250k yearly but any
bad day does not feel good. Number one most important thing is to have a full life outside.

[SCRAGGS]

I think anyone who says the are the same with the win or lose must
have small wagers.

[Trucker George]

I don't start patting myself on the back until near the end of the season.

[Cougar Bait]

Pretty obvious Brock feels worse

Chin up Brock, CBB not far off

[d2bets]

The answer is yes. Definitely feels better.
