Whats harder to take....

1. When in the very first moments of the game, you realize youre 100% sure you have the wrong side... not because of the score but how the games being played out...

2. Feeling like you had the better team, and losing because a bad break, call ect

3. It being extremely close all the way through and losing it in the end?

At least with #1 you can save a couple of hours sweating a game out , so not really that bad (unless it was a big wager)

#2 would be the hardest to take if you got screwed by a bad call.

Playing Seattle TT under 3 last night. They get 2 unearned runs in the bottom of 9th, and I get a push. I KNOW I had the right bet down lol.

i had tampa bay last night bruins....i am still angry over it.

usually i want option #1...no sweat, just move on

but if it is a big chase bet, i want #2 or 3 cause no matter how bad they are getting blown i will still sweat until it goes final...i will keep checking...i will keep watching....and i will be fucking pissed as fuck the whole time it is going on.....once the game goes final i slowly lick my wounds, but i may have a stroke following my side getting blown out.

#2 no doubt about it.

I hate bad beats period. Losing early is very easy to take.

#2, then #3. I'd rather realize a loss early on and just turn it off and accept it than have it slip away at the end.

For me it is when a ref flat out blows a call that cost you. I don' t mean a judgement call either. Like the pitt sd football game where they didn't count palamu td.

for me its a resounding #2. Nothing INFURIATES me more then knowing i correctly handicapped the game, with my team dominating from start to finish, yet some (or a lot) of bs happens resulting in a loss. One reason it makes me so mad is that I always imagine the idiot on the other side celebrating that just won money while making a bad bet.

I.E. LAST WEEKS MONDAY NIGHT GAME -Bears utterly dominated and i'm still not sure how I lost that one
