    Just made the biggest betting mistake in my life...
    I had the sixers in for 5x the whole game I was following it and rooting for the Sixers.. When I go in to double check my ending bets.. it SAID CLIPPERS PK RISKING 550/500 .... My heart almost dropped How did this happen? I could have sworn I clicked on the SIXERS.... Do some sites change it on purpose or have I just gone crazy?

    Very hard lesson to learn but always take screenshots of accepted bets right after you make them and save on comp. Sorry man I feel your pain.

        If this is the biggest mistake you have ever made in your life I would say you are doing pretty well in life. God Bless you!

                                    Nothing you can do....I feel for you. Just be more careful my friend....DO NOT CHASE IT BACK. I did that and was in a worse position my friend.

                                        Been on the winning side of maybe two bets where I though I've lost but picked the wrong side. It happened to me a few times by rushing my bets in the past, but they were usually small plays.

                                        I feel for you, since this appears to be one of your bigger plays and you could of had a ton of ammo for tomorrow's March Maddness games.

                                          ^ what EI said.

                                          I'd get the **** off SBR and do something else for a while.

                                          The pain goes away if you don't compound it.

                                          Tough break though bro.

                                                you won't get it off your mind.

                                                get drunk.

                                                pass out.

                                                wake up and start again.

                                                          you should always check your bets right after you make them. I have accidentally taken the wrong team a few times and have gotten it corrected right away. I have been very fortunate with my mistakes though.

                                                          last baseball season I thought I took toronto ML against the White Sox for 200 bucks. Toronto was winning all game and lost the game late so I was pretty pissed. Logged in to my account to chase the loss and found out that I took Toronto first 5 innings. Lucky.

                                                          I remember 2 years ago I meant to take Utah +21 at TCU but accidentally took TCU -21. TCU ended up killing Utah that game. And what was so sweet about that victory was the fact that my book refused to change the bet 10 seconds after I made it.
