Cant justify spending anymore time or money into something I'm so bad at and unlucky at.

ND +3.5 up 17.5 ATS in the 3rd and lose mostly on that complete garbage of a completed catch late in the 4th.

Bulls 2nd half over 93.5 After the 113 points in the 1st half figured this was a bum line but played it over looked great most of the time then a bunch of bad shots and killed possessions followed by missed ft's and no scoring in the last minute lands on 93

Followed a great ncaa caper and took Akron instead of the +1 i took the even ML and they proceed to lose by 1 in OT


Not gonna get hooked but had the over in this LA laker game and well 115 or so in the first i won't even touch the over 196

betting to many games but this is just insane. I might catch a lucky break once a week and get a backdoor or something I HAVE TO STOP it all together never gonna sniff winning and now its just putting me in bad moods lately
sorry had to vent nowhere else to

I know the feeling. I'm pretty sure we all do. The key is cashing out then taking a break. Not going bust, then taking a break.

Exactly. They just sleep walk sometimes. The 2nd half goes by so quick that they probably just want the game to be over

Ive been betting sports since about 1980 and handicapping for years before that but it took poker to teach me a big gambling truth. You run hot and you run cold, everyone does in everything they do. The key is to back off when your cold and load up when your hot. It really is that simple but its a hard concept to grasp....It just recently cost me my roll. i was doing great and was on like a 25-5 run....then i lost like 4 in a row. Instead of seeing that i was cold i kept fighting. If i went 5-0 last tuesday what could be different about this tuesday?? The fact is i was hot last tuesday and this tuesday i was cold as ice. instead of realizing this and showing patience by backing off and waiting for the cycle to complete i forced more bets. Followed some guys in the forum, came up with my own plays, etc.....I mean how could i lose? i just went 25-5 is that not proof i can win????? well i finally went busto when my streak hit about 2-and 13.
The fact is i played both runs badly. when i was winning i didnt increase my bet sizes and when i was losing i didnt change anything either. So i lost value with the win streak and gave away my money on the cold streak. I knew i was cold, you can tell if you are honest with yourself when the worm has turned......and you'll be a true professional when you are able to see the truth and plan your wagers accordingly.

I think it was the muslim prophet Jerry Reed who once said....."When your hot your hot.....when your not your not"........
