    I got freaking buried today.... lost 17 units
    Someone hold me

    Bad day, worst day ever

    Was up a decent amount for the month of June, last day of the month its wiped out

    Back to zero

    Swinging Johnson is usually money and will be in the future but today I tailed him full on for the first time today and his picks went 0-4 and -14 units

    My own picks did not fare much better

    Johnson we must overcome this and come back strong next week. I am still tailing you pal

    Let's all wish each other luck for the month of July

    I hit huge on the NCAA CB tournament...went large on Tucky to win it all. Since then lost close it all on NBA playoffs and MLB. If you play year around then you will have rough patches. If I was smart I would only play $10 a MLB game and and on the rest of shity summer sports.

      MLB is too tough... I rake in college sports but MLB is a different ballgame. Too much variance

        They play too many games and you have no idea which pitchers are going to show up.

          2500 swing b/c a guy couldn't win one fukking point. just needed that one point

          it was in a situation where I couldn't react either... I had to silently watch those pts on my phone w/ a poker face and act like nothing was happening.

                  Be careful tailing hot guys like Swinger

                  Its percentages as he cannot keep picking high amounts of winners

                  Frogger re group man

                  Sorry for you loses

                    this, i do really well at college football and basketball, pretty good at nfl, and get crushed in mlb, give all profits from ncaa back by july in baseball..


                    best thing to do is try and take a few weeks off, thats what im doing now, then just gonna deposit like 250 and bet 10 dollars a game till football starts up again

                      Bet on sports you are good at and avoid betting on sports you are bad at.

                      You should spot bet, make one bet per day or even up to a week or month.

                        Yeah i feel ya. Been grinding away, sweating big cards and big plays...than last night I was watching the seattle game (no money on it) and saw no offense amd thought "ill live bet batters to get an out amd chase till it hits because these fukks arent hitting shit". Well what do you know, bottom of the sixth Beckett allows a hit, than walks a guy, than a pop fly that was muffed, and all of a sudden a third of my bankroll is gone and I had to stop. Been working so hard lately and than i blow it in about 3 minutes. So now I wake up today knowing i should have learned my lesson and use bankroll management but I really wanna chase my loses, we'll see. Good luck to ya moving foward, bought time for a heater!

                          I had a similar 1-3 day yesterday, but only lost 3 units

                          I rarely blindly tail anyone, but I did so one day this year. I tailed a guy who was killing it. He went 0-5 on the one day I tailed him. He has since picked back up with killing it.

                          Baseball has been a major struggle for me this year.

                          good luck today

                            Sorry to everyone else that has been struggling as well. I cashed out 2300 about two weeks ago, have dropped about $600 since.

                              Sorry about your loss, I also lost yesterday but I lost 15 units that's what happens when you bet to many favorites and the country is in a heat wave and these pitching studs can't even go three innings. good luck today . I'll give you one game that I think will hit Mets +135

                                If you focused more time on handicapping, instead of politics, this wouldn't have happened to you.

                                  I'm with you on the Mets. Great value and Kershaw can't win the games by himself.

                                  I pick my spots in baseball, agree with everyone else very tough sport to bet. Sometimes you know by the end of the 1st inning that your bet is sunk if the starting pitcher doesn't have his stuff. Football season is right around the corner. Been concentrating on tennis lately.

                                      I got completely buried yesterday as well. Down about 14 units. Red Sox and Cincy -1.5 killed me.

                                      New day, new month and 2nd half of the year. Time to turn the tides and make it all back and then some.

                                          I need a lifeline today as well. Lost $2500 in two weeks due to THREE games being blown in the 9th, and a half run on an o/u.

                                            I tripled my bets and lost my ass...

                                            I lost 80% of my roll today ..I know don't chase!

                                            But it's always you loose 12 in a row, but never win 12 in a row...

                                              Bankroll management. I had a terrible day, worst in a month but only lost close to 5 units.

                                              Waking up today, it's not such a big deal

                                                I was having a great week and also had a bad Saturday 2-5-1. Oh well that is the variance and why we maintain discipline when sizing our wagers. Back at it today.

                                                I think yesterday was rough on a lot of folks. Let's cash today! Bet wisely forget yesterday happened. No emotion just winners.

                                                      Going with Pirates on the Rline. I also like Dodgers today even with out Kemp and Either.

                                                      Same situation with Padres yesterday that cashed. Light hitting teams don't get shut out or lose everygame.

                                                      Best of luck!
