Gambling isn't even worth it anymore

[Lazy-Man]

The rush isn't there and it's not worth it stressing over 20 year olds making chip shot fgs.

[Jerm3462]

Is this the first time you've lost on a missed field goal?

Ahhhh, kids.

[Big Bear]

I feel ya on that one. After today I am seriously considering not wagering on college sports anywmore. Way too sloppy

[FindTheLock]

sometimes you're better of coming to terms with the fact that you aren't very good at something. Post your plays before the games so the rest of us can know which teams not to bet on.

[warriorfan707]

Honestly dude I dont think gambling is for you. Time to hang em up.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Oh boo hoo!

[Brett Cruise]

That's the game, bs plays lose you money, bs plays win you money, its all a wash the way i see it.

Gambling hasn't really been worth it for quite some time. Books have taken away many of the more profitable angles. As soon as a book knows you're a winning bettor, they limit you. It hasn't been worth it for a long time.

[Ernie Mccracken]

What kind of edge do you think you had over the books today? Games were toss ups. Find better spots.

my thoughts exactly, a lot of these bowl games have been coin flips, which is why i haven't bet on most of them

Ahhhh, kids.

even though Im only 23 Ive been gambling since I was 1 with my dad

[ApricotSinner32]

If you have a way to be profitable you don't have to watch the game. You simply check the final score.

[ACoochy]

Op learn how to read value in number pricing pal...Let the book tell u whos side they are on and go from there....

[lovetobet]

What kind of edge do you think you had over the books today? Games were toss ups. Find better spots.

I don't necessarily agree with that I was 2-1 going into the Stanford game and had the over and Stanford ML. I was on the right side of 4 out of 5 plays today but only went 3-2. The value was there.

The real issue is if this guy is ready to hang it up after that FG, HE SHOULD!! This gig is not for you.

If your +EV that sh*t evens out in the long run. Time to try something else buddy

[Ace_of_Spades]

SBR needs to make a sub forum for guys who can't handle losing.

[jjgold]

Lazy Man you love it that is why you keep talking about it

Your one of the top 20 sickest gamblers at sbr

[poloyol]

If you have a way to be profitable you don't have to watch the game. You simply check the final score.

Exactly!!U peak at the score here and there and don't bother with the outcome....u win great,u lose don't let it get to u as long as at the end of the week ur in the plus money.My opinion...bet very small,$1 bets get into the grove and start understanding line movements,teams,etc...and when ur in the plus money at the end of the week for a month straight then raise ur wagers to $2 and don't bet higher just because u think the game is solid...money management is very key to success and be very patient.

Anymore sage advice? How about how to be a SBR professional poster:

Steps
1) Degen all your money away stiffing people in the process make some bullshit excuse and leave forum for approx. 2 days
2) Make new handle being anonymous except for obsession with zeta
3) Become SBR Pro on new account through referrals/zetamoney because you can't post up $200 normally
4) Talk shit on forums promptly be discovered as Patty
5) Be indignant about whole situation ignoring criticism
6) Recant old ways and promise restitution
7) Start posting some psuedo sharp advice on forums
8) MLB/NBA/NHL/whatever Dog system
9) Start hedge fund/ borrow money after losing streak
10) Degen it all away chasing
11) Repeat steps 1-10

[poloyol]

Mr.Market....do u actually watch the majority games u wager on?I certainly don't...yes,i do spend time looking for the correct games to wager on,but when that is accomplished...i place my wager and go on with my day.Like i said...peak at the score here and there but that's it...don't let wagering control your life.

[dlunc3]

i bet ya gambling would still be worth it if you were on the opposite side of the kid missing the chip shot huh?

[warriorfan707]

Mr Market is a fukkin toolshed

[SoCal]

<<<<< SBR needs to make a sub forum for guys who can't handle losing.>>>>>

HA! Damn that is classic and I know a bunch of guys in need of that!

[milwaukee mike]

What kind of edge do you think you had over the books today? Games were toss ups. Find better spots.

i think there was a huge edge on the rose bowl over 72
the 2 teams were averaging 90 points combined

you're right though there are better opportunities on lesser followed games/sports

[FourLengthsClear]

Mr Market is a fukkin toolshed

Not commenting on the above exchange with yourself but MrMarket is easily one of the smartest guys here.

I am fairly sure that the OP is just a troll but if he is not he need to quit and seek professional help.

[warriorfan707]

If he was one of the smartest guys here, he would not say that gambling is not for me.

[poloyol]

FourLengthsClear...Mr.Market is one of the smartest guys here..... REALLY!! i say he is immature for posting his wagering log.

[FourLengthsClear]

FourLengthsClear...Mr.Market is one of the smartest guys here..... REALLY!! i say he is immature for posting his wagering log.

He didn't, Warriorfan posted his own log.

A little immaturity now and again is no bad thing anyway.

[milwaukee mike]

i'm shocked that someone would be immature on an internet gambling forum

[poloyol]

I apologize FourLengthsClear and Mr.Market for posting my comment regarding Markets wagering log.

[warriorfan707]

get some help kid

[poloyol]

I think u r the one that needs some help after contributing $200 just to become an SBR Pro

[warriorfan707]

contributing 200?


wtf are you talking about noob

[will2survive]

OP-- This is simple. You take the good with the bad. You're only as good as your last bet. Do you work hard for your money? Proceed with caution and when you lose, consider the money spent as enjoyment. If you get nothing out of it whatsoever, then quit.
