Lottery, coinflipping

Whatever your thing is

All fukkin forms of gambling, how much u down

[warriorfan707]

Cmon guys, tell me

Its alright

[physed]

Who the hell keeps track. As long as I can pay my bills and there's money in my checking count I don't care

[warriorfan707]

That actually makes me feel a little better

Txs physed

I like that

[warriorfan707]

Interesting noone wants to answer this question...

[SportsMushroom]

never really kept track

deposited a bunch

withdrew a bunch

definately down but how much is a questionmark

[v1y]

I'm up.

[playersonly69]

Well I am up around $400,000 from live poker tounaments, but most likely I am down around $250,000 in sports gambling.


Fortunately I am up quite a bit from live poker ring games

[face]

$35.00

[warriorfan707]

I wish I knew

I really have no idea...

How do you guys keep from beating yourselves up? From thinking about what you could have done with the money instead, what you could do with the time, etc

[Monte]

i hate these "let's sit around a table and babble" threads, who the fukk cares

[warriorfan707]

Well its good to know noone else keeps track either

Although not sure if being a typical sbr poster is a good thing

I think of it as an investment and keep telling myself that one day it will pay off

started gambling 5 years ago, have gotten exponentially better since then, I can still see a lot of improvement in my capping capabilities to this day after all these years


unfortunately the only thing keeping me from making money from sports betting is money management, I am horrible at it, I cannot stop myself from chasing if I am down for the day, working on improving in that department but its hard to control your impulses and vices


why is it that chase plays always lose? statistically shouldnt they win at least half the time? even if I chase with a -10,000 fav it will somehow lose

[Housemoney]

I usually only gamble during football season. Anything after would just be money left in the account that always runs out quick.

Most I ever lost in a season was @ $5000, had to give my bookie my tax return. He met me at H&R Block. Never bet above my head again.

Most I ever won in a season was @ $3000. Hit a big score in the Intertops casino that year.

Lifetime - who knows, it's entertainment.

[Romanov]

Bro, you gotta start to think about the mind and the way it works and such... when we are chasing we are not in our right state of mind...

This has something to do with the results we get. The world works in mysterious ways, and your mind is a magnet. You will get the results that you are expecting, someway, somehow for the most part.

Up a few stacks of high society

[Emily_Haines]

stay away from betting NFL

that's most players problems is they like to bet things that can't be beat.

I learned long ago that if you feel the urge to gamble on a Sunday, head to the casino and get in a live poker game. At least you have a fighting chance.

[JerseyLove]

I always do good but end up going to the online casino

[Hotdiggity11]

+8.5k. Put most of it in the stock market.

[SoCalFisher]

Just a guess, down 8-12k overall in the past 20 yrs. Sad when you look at the #, but had crazy fun in Vegas while losing some of that. This includes my -250 overall in football this year

[gauchojake]

when gambling starts making a difference in your life, you should probably stop.

[icancount2one]

Up a few thousand in cards, a few hundred maybe one g in sports.

I doubt it's worth the hundreds of hours I've sunk in.

Thats the problem

with the time we put into this, if we put it towards something valuable we would make a fortune

were working for pennies

in some case working to get demoralized and lose money

[Marigold HD]

Down lots. Can't post how much.

[ttwarrior1]

down approximate 1 mill 300 thousand since 1998

[TR88]

[sweethook]

50 years worth , but 45 mins of winning and i'l be back in the game

[BroDog73]

How many times has a thread like this been done? I've only been here a little while and have seen it at least a few times. You are really hurting for friends Warrior, aren't you??

[str]

Keeping a record from sport to sport and year to year is vital IMO.
