Welcome Back Brock Landers

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 10:59 AM

Well back to post, not to gamble. May give out "opinions" but i see no harm in talking to the boys here.

lets have some fun!

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 11:02 AM

update on my life..

As you all know i quit gambling dec 28th 2008, that was a VERY tough day in my life, i about lost it all.

Anyway, i am now working a 2nd job, Pizza hut delivery driver and it pays surprisingly well. I owe the old man about 13K from my last "Bailout" and will pay back monthly 100% from my 2nd job till its done. For Jan i paid him 750 bux, kept 50 bux for gas and he was cool with that. Its the effort that matters here, the payback will take some 15 odd months or so, but thats ok, at least he is getting back what i said i would get him.

So lets have some fun, lets not go backwards in life, lets go forward.

JJ, Archie, Nicky, Richie, ET all, HOW'S IT GOING FELLAS?!

welcome back buddy, but i dont like saying welcome back because this place is not a good place for you to be.. if you are trying to fix your life, you are in the wrong place.. hanging around this place with all these gamblers is not good for you.. it's like hanging around 300 gamblers everyday in a sports bar with 40 giant screen tv's and every game going on and expect to never gamble. It's like being in a bar with 200 alcoholics surrounded by beers and you are an alcoholic.. you must get out of this scene asap. It will only make it easier for you to go back again..

Good to see you brocker. hang in there and stay away from this gambling shit.. It will ruin your life and will ruin a lot of sbr posters lives in the near future.

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 11:11 AM

i'll take my stance from you Nicky, you seem to TALK about Gambling, but don't seem to be a GAMBLER yourself. So i'll pattern myself off you pal.

Thanks to all! You'll notice a slightly different Brock Landers than before, but hey, better to be here than not, at least we all have something in common.

compaqDikk · 02-12-09, 11:12 AM

this place and others are the devil's playgound if you're trying to quit

Sforz · 02-12-09, 11:17 AM

Brock welcome back, .... in all honesty i'm happy to see you, but I would guess that the less time you spend around here the better your chances of not gambling will be.. . . best wishes friend.

pavyracer · 02-12-09, 11:19 AM

Told you he was back as Wadder a few nights back.

buztah · 02-12-09, 11:20 AM

Brock, you start hangin' out here and you will be all in before this Sunday's last scheduled game.

Brock starts gambling again before Monday: -1200
Brock resists gambling even though he will be posting at SBR all weekend: +500

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 11:20 AM

also i am starting my own business soon...In Late April/Early May i will be launching a website whereby i can be hired to negotiate credit card settlements for you. You would not believe the stuff these cards will give you if you know how to play it right. You can negotiate your own settlement, but how would you know if you are 1)getting as good a deal as you possibly could and 2)know what the correct timing is to not screw yourself up and get sued.

All coming in due time..

jjgold · 02-12-09, 11:22 AM

Welcome Back Brock

Man this might not have a happy ending but we are glad your back

Look forward to your picks

jjgold · 02-12-09, 11:23 AM

mmike032 · 02-12-09, 11:23 AM

the spreadsheet has never been my thing JJ, you know this...

What used to be called my picks will now be called my "opinions"

i have 2 strong ones tonight too JJ.

Will have a daily thread for any Opinions, so consider that my "spredsheet"

Make a video in my Ali like return to the ring

Slim · 02-12-09, 11:27 AM

Nicky was right. They always come back.

buztah · 02-12-09, 11:29 AM

Premonition

JJ, you'll see how this plays out. Vets like you n me n Richie already know how this shit will end. He will start making picks on paper and pretending to himself that he is going all in on each one as a means of circumventing the need to work for 15 months to pay his dad back that 13k. He will gain confidence and see a game he thinks he has tightly capped. He will say "phuck it" and go in hard on that game with actual cash for, let's say, 5 dimes. He will lose. Now he's down 18k total!

He takes the credit cards he has (remember he recently neotiated away some debt, hence the business idea he has, so he has some credit to play with) in TOTAL panic (

) and places a 30k chase wager on a favourite on Sunday night. There is an upset and he gets phucken buried, this time, in deeper than ever.

Brock, run, don't phucken walk! I beg you to RUN away! Go get a hobby. Don't watch any sports or visit any related sites. Get into fitness, anything! Good luck, pal.

ok boys, it's official, he's back gambling again. this is how it starts. it's just the beginning. it starts by saying, i will have an opinion.. then it's a real bet after. brocker is basically saying, i will take 2 puffs only.. but those 2 puffs eventually turn into a pack a day.. it's very very sad.. i feel bad for you brocker. gambling is a tough addiction to overcome and you are not helping your cause.

slimmer,

i had brock as a -750/+550 fav in coming back by June 1st. and i even predicted 2 days ago that he'd be back in either FEB or MARCH.

Huge potential harm. Really, really bad idea. If I didn't spend so much time with addicts of all kinds, I would shake my head in amazement at the poor decision making. But I see it all the time.

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 11:33 AM

Buztuh, nice synopsis, a few problems with it though..

i have no credit cards anymore, part of the debt negotiation is the accounts get closed, and i have roadblocks in place to ensure i can't EVER get another card. That’s the trap for me, i am helping people off a playbook i wrote from my own beats. And i have a master colleague who guided me through the world of credit card debt settlement get me on my feet and get started.

No issues with me hanging here and giving opinions, i am here to serve you all!

Brock Landers · 02-12-09, 11:35 AM

Relax guys, lets have some fukkin fun, not be so serious all the time.

JJ knows how to have fun!
