    Anyone else become a hermit because of sports betting?

    Man, I don't think this is a healthy lifestyle. Even when winning money.

    I don't think humans were meant to chill indoors all day staring at screens...

    This shit starts to take its toll after a while. How many of you actually have a normal social life anymore?

    Find a good handicapper, let him do the work, and find a social life.

    Nvm I see, apparently non pros get points just for logging in as well.


    And "finding a good handicapper" is easier said than done. 90% are frauds.

    Yeah old timer you need a good wing man. Maybe we can hit up Pure at caesars after the SBR bash you will be able to get laid if you throw some money around. Hoez in Vegas dont care what dudes look like, they get wet off that money.

    Became a hermit playing online poker. Then added sports betting. Now I'm always checking to see who covered what quarter/period/1st 5 line.

    I spent a good 5 years doing this. Made some big money and just got hooked to not doing anything. I would cancel plans by making shit up just so i could bet on a game and watch the outcome. Lost touch with a lot of people. After 3 years off and working again and going out more...im ok with missing a day or night. Weekends though, that's another story with so many games.

    I live a normal life. I just check scores on my phone non stop so people think I'm a big textor or always on Facebook on my I phone while I'm checking scores. Can't stand not knowing what the scores of my games are. I work on Saturdays during day which sucks because I rather sit at home and bet on games and watch them, but I noticed when im working I don't bet on as many games and become more profitable cause if I was at home I would force plays for action. $ before bitches.

    I probably pay more in juice then you wager total you scrub. Get a clue loser, 200 bucks? Check out my CBB thread and see how bad i have done so far this year. Check out NFL and baseballs from last year while your at it, enjoy your 200 dollar deposit and your 10 dollar bets.

    08 was when I discovered sports gambling, but I had to leave it for three years.

    I'd say more like 99% of Handicappers are scams on the net.
