                GL Regul8r... I'm glad this isn't a thread where a bunch of douche bags come in here and try to bash you. Sucks when you blew more money than you want to/can afford...

                    Baseball has been unpredictable. God dammit. Hoping there's no lock out to the nhl so I can make back wat I lost in mlb.

                            Amazing that I finished my 2012 season going 1-18.

                            How often do you guys go on these stretches?? This should not happen.......should never ever happen!
                            A few heavy dogs mixed in.....but still.

                              reg, ever since posting in here I have been losing my shirt. Frantically looking for parlay opportunities to end my misery. GL. I will curse your ticket.

                              Reg, all of those plays are sure-fire winners.

                                Reg, let's put our heads together and come up with some winners. Show these guys that small-time guys can rub elbows with SBR's elite.

                                  hahaha...well going to be hard to do since I just created a 20 letter password at 5Dimes and shreaded the paper I wrote it down on.

                                  It needed to be done, or else I would have continued to send them money I simply don't have!

                                    We could have come up with a 8-team parlay that was sure to win. No lie. I needed your help.

                                      hahaha....I'm perfect fade material. The funny thing is if I started to fade myself, I would have lost the other way.

                                      I feel ashamed that I deposited another $50 today on my cc......and had Fish/Brewers Under 7.5, and they scored 8.
                                      Fish got a sh!tty bloop 2 out single in the bottom of 8 that plated the the last run.

                                      I know my 1-18 didn't cost me half of what some posters play per game.......but I'm still fu(ked.

                                        Last time I checked...if you were to multiply my recent performance--a negative by your losing performance--another negative, we would surely get a positive result. Load another hundo and let's turn it around! I won't let you lose!

                                            Keep the 5 dimes account reup it... Go open another account and fund it. Make regular bets in 5 Dimes account and got bet double the exact opposite in new account. Rinse, repeat... Grow happy, wealthy, and wise.

                                                Reg, you are going to re-up tonight...you will not make plays without my approval and I will not make plays without yours. WE WILL WIN. I know it. DO it. $100 one time. Going to tell you a story. I haven't reupped since last NHL reg season. I turned $150 into over 12k...losing lately though and I don't like how it feels. I used a lot of my winnings towards my theater room...I have 3k in cash for gambling and I have 3k in 5dimes for gambling. Are you going to come on this amazing ride towards glory? Don't say no when every bone in your body is telling you to go for it. WE WILL WIN. WE WILL WIN>

                                                  I do make alot of these threads because I have no family or friends to talk to this sh!t about it.
                                                  For whatever odd reason I feel better when I can share my pain....even if only to virtual gamblers around the country.

                                                  Its strange, I feel like such a better person when Im out of the game. I have more fun with friends/family as I don't always feel preoccupied. I sleep better...pretty much enjoy life. With that said, I don't know why I always get the urge to do this to myself, when I know the end result. Sure I'll have a few hits here and there, and win a bit.....but I always give it back.

                                                  I cant tell you how many times I've cashed out, and been out of funds a few days later.

                                                    Reg, think about my offer. If you need proof that I am not B.S.ing you, I can show evidence that will increase your confidence in my picking abilities.

                                                      Sorry to here about it, Family and Friends are a little overrated anyways. I prefer not discussing my business with any of mine seeing how I live in the "bible belt" it is not well recieved any ways.



                                                      Back to gambling.. What the fck is Manley Sea Eagles and why are you betting it? And all the tennis bullshit.. No way you can be an expert at all of this stuff.


                                                      Look. gambling is plenty hard enough if you are a very skilled handicapper and do your work and know what you are doing. It becomes 10X harder betting all these different sports and leagues you are playing. I consider myself a serious gambler and have never heard of Manley Sea Eagles? I make degen bets on stuff I don't have a good handle on time to time for action, BUT it is NOT a regular bet. I save those when I KNOW or at least think I have the goods and will be surprised if my desired outcome does not happen.

                                                            Lyon is right...friends are overrated. I ditched most of my friends, bought myself a labrador retriever and she's my best friend. She filled the friend void and more...only problem is I feel a little awkward tyring to have convo's with normal people. It's a slippery slope.

                                                              lyon........thats a part of the reason I changed my password at 5dimes to something I would never guess in a million years. They are a freaking candy shop...and when I lose a few bets, there is ALWAYS something to chase with, even if it's Manley Sea Eagles in some rugby league in Australia.

                                                              Sure smaller shops like rebatewager don't have the best lines or juice.......but at least it doesn't allow me to get caught up in all the other bullcrap.

                                                              I don't know how to gamble I never did. I can look at the lines for 1 minute, and convince myself why Team A is going to cover. No research no capping, just gut feels. It's worked before, as I've hit nice stretches, but longrun in fails....EVERY TIME.

                                                              My mind can't comprehend how this game works, and it drives me to insanity. Maybe when I stay outta this game.....I need to read some literature on the subject, to at least give me a sense I've gained knowledge.

                                                                I have a difficult time accepting a losing day as well. It seems like when things are going good, I can bet 2 or 3 games in a day, and be happy with the profit. If I'm losing early, it's a completely different story. I feel like I can get back to even, and make out ahead by the end of the day.

                                                                Because of this, its rare that I can my deposit last much longer then a week, if I even get there. I don't know why I can't look longterm, and hope to be up 20 units or so ($2,000) by the end of the year. I don't think I'm trying to get rich quick, but my actions tell me otherwise.

                                                                This is such an internal struggle......not sure how I've gotten myself to this point. Real Talk Gentlemen!

Lets say college football for instance.. It's too big for anyone that has not been studying it a long time. So pick a conference and learn everything you can about those teams and the players, know how much depth there is at all posistions especially key posistions. Also, get to know the coaches and tendencies. Trust me some couaches are real mental midgets and fck up stuff constantly. Learn all you can about it and try to pick spots based on sitautions. Bet small initially and pay more attention to the process rather than the initial results. Your initial results may not be good because it is not easy but keep plugging away until you know all you can about what you are betting.

                                                                  I myself do not make many bets because I know very little compared to what I need to know so most of the lines released mean little to me so that leaves very little room for betting opportunities.

When I get on tilt, units go out the window and I bet on the first thing that looks appealing. I've ran well when on tilt, but that's not likely to continue...

                                                                      I just created an unguessable password, and threw the paper I wrote it on in shredder.

                                                                      I'm going to stick to my NFL suicide pool and fantasy and that's it......I've officially lost my right to gamble! Now I've just gotta find a way to stay away from sports bars, buddies houses on weekends, etc. If I get around sports too much, I'll do it again.
