I have 2 solid plays for later.... No live wagering. I learned my lesson on that. Too bad it was a valuable lesson :/

[EaglesPhan36]

Better to learn and apply than to never apply at all. We all are guilty of our vices in this game.

[Snowball]

nothing wrong with live hedging... but that's different than live betting.

Yes, very true

Oh for sure. Hopefully the US open brings solid fortune

only 4 hours after you swore off live betting..

Had a feeling you would chase something live Matt. Voltage is set to sterilize.

Fck dumb play on my part..... Only 1 live play today but it bit me in the ass.

I was pissed about the way Murray lost. I thought for sure he had a chance tonight. Up 4-1 serving, and blows the set... There's not too many in the top 50 on the ATP side that still suck this bad to lose the set.

[EaglesPhan36]

Yeah. Losses always test your resolve. Angry bets are usually losing bets. Still think another positive would be to flat bet. Then you're about break even on the Sharapova-Murray results and you're not tempted to live bet .... Life Coach says overall grade C+ today.

Gambling coach. I like it!!! You seem to have the temperament and knowledge that bad bettors could use. You need to find a way to market it and get paid

[GoBlue77]

geezus, you bet svitolina 2nd set? seek help now!!! wow. i threw 300 on ivanovic live because i knew it was a easy free 100.

LoL ... As long as I can avoid my own perils. I only made one action play this week, so that's pretty good even if my whole week in Cincy sucked as a whole.

I've lost two grand in the last two weeks. Fuckin Murray! Took him to beat Tsonga, he got broken twice in 3rd set up 3-0. Took Fed to beat Ferrer in two sets, he was up a break in the 2nd (after winning the first) then gets broken twice to lose the set, but then easily won the 3rd (that was the match where you tested your bad luck, Matt, to see if you were cursed. You were not, but I was.

Then took Fed to beat Tsonga, he couldn't buy a backhand, not a single one, nor could he generate one (just one) break point opportunity. Took Murray to beat Fed; Murray broken 3 times in the 2nd set after being up 4-1, meanwhile Fed couldn't miss a backhand if he tried and got a million break opportunities. Unfreakinbelievable. Also lost with Halep even though she was up a set and a break. Why is it so much easier to lose a bunch in a row then win a bunch? Just once I'd like to know what a win streak feels like. I've won 30 grand gambling over the last year but my worst sport has been Tennis. NBA +15,000 NFL +15,000 Soccer +4,000 Tennis -4,000. I should just stop betting it but I can't stand the fact that I can't succeed at this f'n sport.

Damn wish I had your winnings. The gambling is all about discipline if you want to win in the long term. Tennis sucks in the short term. There is a ton of variance given that its one dude vs one dude. Stick with your strengths!!! No need to be a hero unless you are doing this for fun. If you do it for the money stick to sports where you have an edge like that Leetreaper dude. He tried the tennis, saw he sucked and dropped it.(or at least thats how it appears)

You're probably right, Sluggy. I guess I just want to go out on a winning note but it ain't happening. The ego is a great hinderance to gambling wisely.

[Goldenshowers]

matt what's your bankroll at now? you should start a new record since changing from units to $

[Snowball]

you would do best to tail me and make money.

[matt1216]

Im sure good snowball... I made big time money last year... I also take pride in the fact that I stick to my own picks and I rarely take plays because of what somebody says... I had a nice mini 15-5 streak in posted plays but with poor dicipline I pissed it away with live wagering. I was due for a couple of shit posted plays like today.

[matt1216]

geezus, you bet svitolina 2nd set? seek help now!!! wow. i threw 300 on ivanovic live because i knew it was a easy free 100.

Of course you did Blue... I have always like you man but lately you have made some boneheaded calls.... To come in here after the fact is just you trying to rub something in. Yes I made a stupid call there.

[matt1216]

matt what's your bankroll at now? you should start a new record since changing from units to $

Yeah, i started a new record about 4 days ago... Everyone knows I had a shit run and there's no point in updating my previous -150 units....

[matt1216]

I think people forget that I didn't make a thread until after the US open last year.... I killed it in 6 weeks...... Everything up until the US open is still very new to me.

I hear what your saying... I think tennis just takes more patience something that i(a kid with ADD) struggles with at times. Things are improving for me but much slower. My strong suit is NFL... I like it because I'm forced to only wager big on Sundays... U can prep for it

exactly, start a new record
