Post your best trick on how to get over a bad sports betting run. (here is my trick)

CHOPTALK · Jan 1, 2013

I learned this trick a while back when running bad.
If you are really running bad for several weeks in a row.
You know those times where you cannot win a game if you were betting on a re run on ESPN classic?
Everyone has been there.

This is what I have been doing.

I find the biggest moneyline favorite in the whole sportsbook.
I dont care if its soccer, Tennis, Boxing. It does not matter.
I take the biggest favorite there is and risk $10 bucks on the favorite.
You may only win 25 cents. But its a physiological thing.
When this happens you win a bet and your mindset starts to change.
I do this about 5 times in a row for 2 or 3 days.
Instead of taking a week off like most people do I just find the biggest fav on the board.

I have never lost one of these plays, and even if I did I would only lose $10.

This is not about making money.
Its about getting that feeling of winning again.
Even when you win a game thats -8800 for a few cent it does something ever so slightly for your mental mindset that helps you get that winning feeling again.

It works for me.

I make one of these types of bets almost everyday just in case I do have a bad day... That way I have something to fall back on

As long as it's only $10, no big deal. What happens if you lose two of these in a row to your psyche? :dancefool

Why don't you bet these plays exclusively?

thanks for the laugh

And when on a winning streak and you know a loss is coming, bet $10 on the biggest underdog. Do this about three times and then go back to regular betting because your due for a win.

Or, to get off a losing streak, just Fade Lang.

baseball teams on a losing have a ritual known as the "slumpbuster".

"kiss" a fat girl, i am told works everry time

JustinCruise · Jan 1, 2013

It's all about mind set for me. I have to get back to where I feel even again.

So I take a few days off, and totally ignore the sports world. No espn, no checking scores.

Come back fresh and off tilt

I know a woman that was a 'slumpbuster" once when she lived in Florida. She took on one of the Florida Marlins players. I told her that she was a slumpbuster and she had no idea what I was talking about. And this woman was a decent looking woman with great implants. She just liked sex.....and still does. Player wound up hitting a HR the next day. She told me that he f*cked her in every room of the house in every way possible. Damn she's a great lay!
