its common this time of the year. You had several months of football, then waited for March Madness and now you are stretching it into the NBA and NHL playoff which are winding down and likely your favorite team(s) are not playing still. Only MLB left to look forward to until September.

You are suffering for Football withdrawals. You might not know it.

I was gonna make a thread the other day. When does gambling stop being fun?

Daily gambling is boring and worse than having a job. Gambling once a week is better.

You stayed away for awhile. Then went 0-2. If you'd gone 2-0, you'd be excited and back into it. What happened to you (0-2) is the best thing that could have happened.

Winning > not betting > losing


Not betting is a better option than 0-2

I'm on a nice little win streak and still in all ,didnt want to handicap yesterday.....I do all capping by pen in hand,and some days it just feels like a burden at times.The way one season runs into another season in sports,there is hardly any downtime,Its easy to become burnt out.

it probably has a lot to do with you losing both bets.

if you would have won, you wouldnt have made this thread puff_>>

the gambling isn't what made him feel bad, it's the losing.

and for a TRUE gambler, the best feeling in the world is winning a big bet, the 2nd best feeling in the world is losing a big bet. cuz at least you had action and felt something...
