Damn ! I'm just getting home and dragging my sorry stupid A-- home from the Hilton after watching the Packers freeze in the frozen tundra ! My 30/1 NFC wager is now just great paper to start a fire or light up some good weed ..however I don't even have any of that ! I covered my wager a little but I got greedy as I waited until close to game time and bet some of that + 8 1/2 on the Giants when I should have just bet the + 300 on the Money Line. Greed !! I bet a little Giants ML but not nearly enough ! :sad3:

I know what you mean kermit. Last week I had Indy +2 1/2 on the ass end of a 4-team teaser and didn't buy any SD at +600. I didn't want to dilute my winnings since I thought Indy would come back to win.

I'll see what I can do to hook you up with some weed the next time I'm in town.

No worries Kermit, money comes and goes it's the thrill of the wager that counts.
I've got some tickets to add to your bonfire if yours needs company.

I have such a headache as I had so much stuff tied up on that gaem with live betting, etc......if tha ass Tynes wouldve made that first kick it wouldve been a great night. But he didnt so I had to buy back on the Pack at a not too favorbale price once the y got the ball in OT. The nFavre tosses a pick. Still made $50 but would had a nice payout on G-Men.

I had this problem 2 years ago when I had edmonton at 40/1 go to the finals against carolina, I got greedy and didnt hedge enough....

Last year I had a large wager on Sens to go all the way, and same thing, I held instead of hedging with edmonton....

I guess it all part of what makes us gamble in the first place.

Good point kermit. If we weren't gamblers we wouldn't hedge against a bet we think should win.
