Moron Betting: $25 to $500 in SMALL steps

[ThaTopMoron]

Let's see if I can get this done before the NFL regular season starts

Starting balance: $25, doing this on Bovada... I never play with them anymore, feel bad for them. They can have my $25 if I lose it

bet #1: 6-22-12, LA Angels -1.5 (+140) vs Dodgers (props to Brock for this first play )

$5 to win $7 is the play

[ThaTopMoron]

this is the MLB.tv free game for tonight, nice

[ThaTopMoron]

0-1 record... watch the game for a minute and 3 run blast

thanks Haren... counting this as a loss top of the 1st. the one time i convince myself to trust that scrub Haren who i always make fun of

edit: overreaction to top of the 1st 3 run deficit... classic! first play ends up a winner

Saunders was scratched. Should have taken pitchers listed and not action.

Edit: wrong game

[ThaTopMoron]

Saunders was scratched. Should have taken pitchers listed and not action.

this was a last minute decision to do this
not a serious thread
just trying to have some action till football is back
i don't like baseball for betting & usually don't bet after the NBA ends till football starts back up

[MUHerd37]

I posted about wrong game. Was thinking Arizona instead of L.A.

but FIRST PLAY ends up a winner! 8-5 Angels win and cover the RL

Interesting that you're a low stakes gambler like I am.

I deposited $40 this year and currently at $260 from betting on Giants +3 Under parlay Super Bowl, American Idol futures, a few MMA fights and the Miami winning the series and championship.

If you can turn $25 to $500. That's the same as turning $2500 to $50000.

Technically yes, but depending on how many zeros you have at the end of your numbers, it fks with you psychologically. Losing $25 isn't like losing $2500.

yeah that's the truth there moshi

GunShard, yeah... I am a lower stakes gambler in parts of the year, but really not this low very often.

if i get a nice start here, it will fill that need to have some action a couple days a week

Topper good luck with this

[starfire]

I got $50 to $500...
Holding @ $430

[crackerjack]

Good luck. These are fun to try. I'm down $3500 in baseball this season and put in $250 hoping to build back up to even. I'm at $800 now but I usually start with a winning streak, then lose a few games then start making big bets to chase losses until it's all gone. Trying to manage money this time around... My best run was $500 to $13000. Cashed out $10000 and lost the other $3K. Have probably reloaded the $10K since then so I'm going to call myself even!

It was about 10 or 12 years ago so it's been a long time...it was the year the Sooners had an awesome offense and an okay to avg defense. I bet $1K on the over every week and it hit like 7 times in a row. Had some other lucky streaks. One year I bet $500 on Brad Radke every time he pitched and he went on an amazing win streak. I love recalling those good runs...not the mire I'm stuck in now (thanks a lot Santiago Casilla).
