Made Some stupid bets this weekend and bankrupt myself out of betting for a lil while!

[MemphisMonroe]

Enter in friday with a small bankroll of $1105 that i mange to get from only a $30 starting bankroll and i let personal stress get the best of me and decided to chase some big cash so i put up $800 on STL last night and that was the beginning of the end....not only got hammered badly but today i believe id get the cash back.....even bigger mistake...took toronto on the ml for $100 and got ate up there and later today took mine that bird (shouldve known) for $200 and got burnt there too....heres the most dumbest move i made. I was out of bankroll so i decided to get all earning back by taking the mets on a gut play for $1000 to win like $1850......money was gon at the bottom of the 1st innning.

So due to my dumb mistakes and moves ill be out of gambling for a lil while(what i say at the moment.) until i recoup (shouldnt have betted the grand but dont want to loose anymore of my personal funds until i get that back) that money i blew away but all in all i went against my system and paid the piper...good luck with the bets you guys make and make a killing off vegas.:toast:

And no this is not a thread to feel sorry for me as a overall winning record gambler i got caught up with some dumb betting mistakes and PAID!

Oh im not broke as in cant pay bills but got caught up in the "chase mode" in which i regret.

 

[earl]

throw in chasing, and double down as a couple of more. ya cant do it. work months to get a bankroll and lose it in days.

Actually manage to build it in 2 weeks by alot of straight parlays on the conference semi games (small wagers but added up) in the nba. I can really still bet but im forcing myself to take a walk (putting myself on suspension.lol) until i can stick to my plan i brought to the table like i said i would and didnt.

Yea win that bet and im not posting this response right now. Only can blame myself thou.

 

[roc18]

[averageg]

Yea good job on deciding to stop for a while. I lost $20,000 from April 2008 to March 2009 chasing losses. Don't be like me

betting on horses never helps either lol

it helped me today

put 100$ on my 3 horses and low and behold the 12-1 hits. Makes up for some bad baseball losses ive suffered

Smart move KB.

Clear your head and get it grounded. This is a tough game we play. Discipline is essential. Without it you cannot win.

I wish you luck.

Well with that being said last night i went to bed saying im done and gon clear my head BUT i woke up with a feeling that told me i betted FRIDAY and LOST, betted SATURDAY and LOST, so whats stopping me for betting SUNDAY for a LOST/WIN......now dont get me wrong this wont be my 3 plays for large sums of money like did FRIDAY and SATURDAY but ill be making ONLY 1 play today and will be on the NBA...........WIN/LOSE/DRAW be my last play before clearing my head. I went the whole weekend just cant leave SUNDAY hanging (may be the day i get sum back). So i'll post my play and why i played it later so when i lose you guys can tell me how stupid i am for trying at it 1 MORE TIME to end my loosing weekend. Could possibly be a great fade for you guys/gals.

 

[Bennyshoe]

hope you get back on track but I doubt win/lose/draw this will be your last play for awhile

 

[MemphisMonroe]

Update: ill be making 2 bets today at the MOST. 1 will be NBA for sure. I will not make more than 2 and will post these plays in this thread for anybody that interested in a possible fade play.......best of luck to me cause ill need it!

Now you prolly wondering why im crazy enough to go with this play.....honestly i am too but the reason for taking the pick is because i normally would be all over the mets but guess what? My picks been shit lately so im fading what would be my original pick.

Outside of that looking at the past games in this series for the year only once the game has ended with a 1 run margin out of 8 games so the winning team has covered in which since im fading my pick im taking washington to win and therefore cover the spread if win. Here we go with another possible lost and a great fade for you guys but please note im fading myself to see if i can turnout a win!:think2:

 

[MemphisMonroe]

5-0 mets game over now time for my finally nba pick loss now.

Last play for ahwile WIN/LOSE/DRAW (another mlb bet where im done in the 1st inning before the game gets going)...no more for me and no write up. GREAT FADE right here: Have fun with the gamblin i shall return to wagering.!<<)
