How many are just enjoying the game and didn't place a wager on it? Its kind of nice to not have money on every single game. Good Luck to those who do.

Basketball is by far the most difficult to watch with a lot of money on the game....

I don't know...baseball is pretty brutal. Every pitch and then the layoff between innings and pitches. I would have to vote for baseball although I agree basketball is tough too. HELL, any event with a lot of money on it seems to be tough to watch!

I meant the emotional ride, basebal is tough too, especially when you're trailing and need runs, and the other team is batting and the damn pitcher can't throw strikes LOL

With basketball though, you can be winning/covering on and off all night...I wish I didn't have to watch or follow my bets, basketball drives me nuts...I bet mainly totals in NBA, which is more stressful, watching a game hoping for no one to make a bucket.

Its been unreal. Usually I struggle with the NBA playoffs for some reason, but decided to be extremely picky this year and it worked out. Good strategy for others, try to take a couple of units out of each series and set a loss limit for each as well. I know not textbook strategy, but it worked at least this year.
