            I hadn't bet online since NETELLER went down, didn't trust other methods, and have been picking "just for fun" for a few years... I know a local though and will drop some cash when I have extra on my fave plays.

            This season I decided to deposit $260 into 5dimes... Bet $150 on Saturday's action and put the remaining $110 on the Rice/Over Parlay which hit, that was nice...

            But as I wrote in my blog, that Kansas game just tore my insides out. I had $22 on it to win $20 but also had it parlayed with Rice/Over/USC ML $10 to win $60 something. To lose that game the way I lost it, I felt so damn sick and disgusted and depressed and I realized that I don't have the mental/emotional strength to deal with losses and bad beats right now. Money is too important to me.

            So today I cashed out $500 from 5dimes... the first time I've ever cashed out from a sports book. Nice $240 profit for the weekend. I will continue picking college football and pro games with the same passion and effort that I would if it were my money riding on it; but until I get a job that pays me a steady income, I have to put the few pennies a week I make into savings, not on games.

            Sorry to answer your question with a life story, haha.

                  Pretty Good Job With The Video ,
                  Send Over The Script First I Try To Talk You Out Of A Couple Losses , All In Alll The Video Was Great The Pic Not So Bad , I Liked The Way You Presenteed Your Case If Youll Post Your Script Before Make The Video I Am Sure We All Can Help Your Totals Be Much Higher If You Let Us
                  I Am Sure I Could Of Talked You Out Of Tennesse And Clemson . I Would Of Doubled Your Bet On Auburn And Florida , But Wow On The Utah Pick Not Sure Even I Could Say I Would Bet The Money Line ... Now First Things Frist Does Miami Win The Moral Victory This Week Holding Florida To A 2 Touchdown Win And Does Southern Miss Not Only Beat The Spread But Win Out Right . Theres Two Easy Picks , I Am Sure You Will Disect This To Death . Let Us Know When You Know .

                      Someone should loan/sponsor this man, sometimes a little money is all someone needs to kick off a career.....

                        Well, hindsight is 20/20. The Clemson game I do regret and will address in my next vid... the Tennessee game I would take the exact same side 100 more times out of 100 if it were offered to me. Thanks for the input though!

                          usc...saw your exchange with DonJuan. Fret not. He is a part of a certain group of SBR "elitists". They think they are better than everyone else.

                          It's humorous in a sad kind of way.

                          Sorta like watching a Nick Cage movie.

                          Great job so far.

                            USC, so you cashed out and I didn't quite understand if you were going to make a new video, cuz I for 1 will be tuning in. If you do, when do you post your next vid? Wow, from your video you sounded like a true professional and I look forward to more. You are young and know what is more important right now, saving your money. something i could never do back when i was younger.

                              I will 100% be making a video every week and I spend hours capping a week, the fact that I have no money on it doesn't change the fact that I cap my favorite games each week.

                              In fact, I would argue that gambling with your pride/reputation is even more intense then gambling with your money. Plenty of gamblers play and lose all kinds of games they never have to fess up to; when I make my plays super public with my videos and newsletter, when I have awful weeks, I can't hide behind anything; its out there in the open for all to see.

                              As such, I still get the rush from being right and the deflated feeling of being wrong. I'll post a new vid every week between Wed - Fri... depends on if I like a game before the weekend or not. This week I do, so I'll be posting a vid today/tonight/early tomorrow.

                              Thanks for watching!
