*MY STORY* MUST READ. My unsuccessful sportsbetting, the bookie loves me.
I've boughten 850.00$ in prepaid gift cards, in sums of 200,100,100,100,100,50,50,50,50 and 50. Plus fee's of 4.95 for each 50 card, 5.95 for each 100 card, 6.95 for 200 card. Down about 900$ total in deposist and fees since late January 2012.
I can't say I've ever had a bankroll of one of my single deposits last me longer then 4 days accept the 200$ deposit which lasted me one week or so before I cashed out, even. and oh ya not to mention that was my only withdraw I've made.
Yep, lately I've been a degen, kinda greedy and very impatient. I just got recently laid off my job and been trying to stack money from this sports betting. I'm a successful poker player, But I realise in gambling in general you gotta have lots of decipline, patience, bankroll management and etc.
But In sports betting- I just can't f*cking resist betting these non sense parlays trying to get max ROI, like in my mind binking poker tourneys- which I finally realise its a whole different ball game. I'm ITM in a poker tourney like 20% of the time and run super deep. Percentage wise in Parlays-Sports I gotta be like under-1% ITM. I'm like 2-79 in parlays... mostly longshots, Straight up about 50-50% W/L.
MY BETTING.
I like betting 20%-50% of my roll at once..... well not really. because 100$ isn't much of a deposit neither is 50$... I'd just deposit 50$ sometimes and go allin and lose or if I won go allin on the next play. some of my 100$ deposits, my patterns are like 2 x10$ parlay on 8 teamers, 20$ parlay on 6 teams, the rest of the 60$ allin on one play SU. most the times I just get on tilt from missing these ******* parlays by 1 team, always! and continue betting till everything is gone or I'd keep dumping my SU bet winnings in the parlays. Just a chemical in my brain which keeps telling me to do these parlays. I don't know if you've ever counted your parlaying record but I've came to conclusion that there just straight up moneypits.
I mean I couldn't deposit even 1000$ and bet between1-3% of the roll on one play, which is what everyone imposes your bet size should be. I mean 10-30$ a game. Whats your expected growth. ******* pennies still. But I do understand the longrun the bankroll will build.
So I mean, I don't wanna quit just because I'm down and unsucessful. I know I can beat the sports in the longrun. I wanna try a whole new approach and I can be more patient and deciplined. Give me some input on what I should try and seriously.... Whats your success from????
