I have been called paranoid because of certain posting forum tendencies over the years.
Example: internet people have offered me referral bonuses I-don't-know-how-many times and I always decline because I don't want books that might be monitoring to connect my internet identity with my real account.
In my mind this is sensible because some books will slap restrictions on or ban people who know what they're doing. That's not something I conjured up in my imagination - I have heard a ton of stories. (Bet365 and Intertops are a couple of the bigger names that come to mind). My thinking is that having my account restricted by an important book will cost me more than the referral I am declining.
But maybe it's just paranoia.
Or I've had cases where I've had bets voided and I immediately flew off the handle thinking I had been bait-and-switched - but it just turned out there was a pitching change.
In outside life though, I feel like I'm less paranoid than average.

Could be... think about it, not only are we always stressed and uptight, watching lines, getting in our bets, sweating our bets...but when we win, we gotta get paid, take care of th money....think about it...
I would say yes...who wouldn't be a little more on edge? The thing I never realized is that this could be something that could be killing me quicker...I don't like that at all!

I am a tortured soul. Are not all gamblers. Just watch the agony during any of those televised poker tournaments. I feel that is why they are watched by so many. It is the AGONY that sells. It's why we remember bad beats far more than the times we flat lucked out. It's pure hell. God I love it.
