As most of you know I was able to turn $17 in to thousands....I got as high as $2300 but thanks to a bad run last few days, have dropped back down to $1300. Would be $1000 if not for that spectacular dunk by Side-show Bob. This is especially frustrating since I had 6 winners this past weekend that I didn't or couldn't bet because I was busy helping my dad with his open house. Regardless, I should be $4000+ had I gone all-in on Spurs ML and Suns ML like I wanted but chickened out due to "money management". Both won by 20+. Well, this money management crap has cost me dearly... so I am going ALL-IN on........... Duke ML.Wish me luck!!!!!!!!!!

uh, right. You're in the predicament you are BECAUSE of your poor money management, going from 2300 to 1300 (and almost 300). But do what makes you happy, I guess.

How is it poor money management if they were $100-200 per?

Bad picks yes but not poor management.

Had I gone all-in on those two sure picks I would be up $4000+.

would NOT do that.... There are better games out there man... Do NOT take Duke tonight... I would not be surprised to see them lose by 15.... This is a HUGE REVENGE game... Clemson has had this shit circled for a while and maybe have been looking ahead to it since the loss haha...

This statement will be 100% accurate if Duke loses tonight.

good luck Crunch...but that "ALL IN" shit will leave you flat broke and then some at some point.... You need to rethink it if Duke wins tonight and you double up..>withdraw your money, stop betting sports and hit the slots or BJ tables instead before you lose it all ...


Just my opinion ..best of luck

I told you two weeks ago, you keep going to the well with an 'all in game' and sooner or later you're going to fall into the well.

You will never see this cash my friend.

Think logically for a second, sooner or later you will lose that all in game.

take a 1 month break, come back end of MArch with a fresh outlook and a commit to making each bet a value wager with no risk more than 2% of bankroll. If you work hard doing that, you can make enough money for trips, presents, dinners, and have some fun.

fukk that--- go all in .. let it ride

you sound like the person where money management is not important and you like to take shots.

every individual is different and most of the longtime members have money management perfected.

for some people its a sprint , for some its a marathon

good luck

Sounds to me your on tilt son.
You'll be kicking yourself in the ballbag when/if this dosen't come in.

Then you'll look at waht got you to 2300 in the first place, probably a 70% winning pct.Now theres the possibility that you'll be even with a 70% winning ratio?..Are you out of your tits?
Risk 230.Thats 10% of your BR.Stiill too much but it wil satisfy your tilt urge.

Please don't do this. Take it one game at a time. i was there a couple of weeks ago and got lucky. Promised myself that it was not worth it anymore to do that. Have a bad night sleep it off and wake up the next day with a new attitude. If this money does not mean anything to you then do it.

Just stop with the drama threads already............

I say go for it. In fact, keep going all in when you feel like it. The Spurs would have won, and yes Duke might win tonight.

However, when you're broke and depressed and have learned your lesson the hard way (which seems to be the way needed for you) come back and start posting seriously.

Yeah.... broke, Brittany, blow head off.... whatever, I just doubled up. That's 3-0 on my all-in plays and if not for money management, I'd be up about $7k right now.

I don't go all-in just for the hell of it, I know when to pick my spots... there's definately a method to my madness.

Thanks for all the support!

I can guarantee you that you will lose your entire backroll with this kind of attitude. It's just a matter of when, but it WILL HAPPEN.

One cold streak and you're busted, and EVERYONE has cold streaks.

I'm not trying to be a prick, I'm just trying to save you from blowing your entire wad.

It was an extremely reckless and stupid move. You got very lucky tonight and I guarantee you the next time you pull that shit again, you'll be broke and lying in a gutter somewhere. :nono5:

Duke wins but someone hits the Lotto every week also.

Here's a sure bet: crunch99, YOU WILL GO BROKE
