Am I better of sweating these games all night long, or just getting the scores before i go to bed?

[WINNINGHAND]

I really feel like stressing these games all night long is ruining my life. I justify it by saying that by watching these teams that I will have a better opinion for later games. Do you guys sweat the games, or just make your bets, and do other stuff at night?

If it stresses you out, DO NOT watch the games. Check back at the end of the day or, even better, check last night's scores first thing in the morning. It helps you spring out of bed and get started for the day. Try a different routine to clear your head.

Sometimes I watch, Sometimes not...
I never sweat out a game because I no longer bet more than I can afford to lose. I am a $25-$100 player on line and $100-$300 locally.

I can't seem to go to bedf before the last game I wagered on finishes.....very hard not to follow the score.

I follow on the net only, watching basketball with a bet on the game will shorten your life quicker than smoking

winning..if it stress you THAT much just do not bet games that are LATE night unless you plan on staying up...OR get up at 4am and log onto yahoo sports

Turn to the food channel, less stress, no scoring updates and you learn some great recipes.

You guys are missing all the fun. Cursing refs and coaches. Living and dying on free throws. Totals are the worst, its either come on anyone (over) or come on no one (Under). Talk about torture, bet a dime on a NBA total that is close down to the last possesion. I love it, masochist that I am.

wil.

Most of the time I go to bed without checking and IMAGINE I won. I sleep alot better. Then check in the morning.

For basketball,I usually get the scores on my phone... via internet.. I usually check the score at the half. To see if I need to put in a 2nd half bet.. I can't watch a basketball game anymore it is sh*t now. Blown leads, miss free throws. I find it less stressful><>

For football I can watch the game.. all the way through... from start to finish.

For Hockey >> Yikes... I just randomally check the scores.. I tried watching one of the games, I had money on.. It drove me crazy!!!
