I've got $4600 in all my accounts, down from $5500 last Saturday. Frustrated with b-ball, after a great football season, I kind of feel like "gambling" rather than sportsbetting. I know it's the cardinal sin, but I feel like betting $200 next game, then $400 if I lose, and so on. Just because I haven't been able to consistently pick winners in b-ball like I did in football. Anyone ever do this?

I do not suggest this at all. Wager $50 to $100 per play(one or the other) and dig in for the long haul. There will be another football season before you know it. And, with this strategy, most likely, you will be sitting about the same going in, even @ picking less than 52%. And you have the chance to get on a roll and get back to the $5500 mark or more. getting rich quick is not likely.

Good luck

I GET TO FEELING THE SAME WAY EVERY YEAR ABOUT THIS TIME. START GETTING THE BURNOUT FEELING. I OPERATE A SMALL BOOK AND ABOUT THIS TIME START GETTING A LITTLE BORED. JUST SIT BACK AND TAKE A LITTLE BREAK. GET AWAY FROM IT FOR A FEW DAYS. GO OUT WITH THE WIFE FOR A NICE DINNER OR THE FRIENDS FOR A FEW DRINKS AND DONT EVEN TALK ABOUT BASKETBALL. IT WORKS FOR ME.

Just keep betting against the Illini and you'll be back in the black in no time.

You may want to read my last post in the LITTLE CEASERS thread.

Please, step back and think straight.

They play the Star Spangled Banner everyday.....often.

Take care

With the pending gambling bills hanging over the industry, the next football season seems very far away. So far that it may never come again.

Tell me about it. Would've taken Wisconsin for sure if I wasn't an Illini fan.

But the good thing is you always get another chance to do better.
