How about you just stop gambling since you can't afford to lose what you did?

There are several aspects to sportsbetting.

I'll give you three:

1. Money management
2. Handicapping
3. Wagering Strategies

My suggestion would be TO STOP GAMBLING RIGHT NOW and read everything you can about Money Management.

But TCSN said it best, "How about you just stop gambling since you can't afford to lose what you did?"

You just broke the Cardinal Rule in Sportsbetting.

Years ago in my neighborhood, there was a saying which had to do with making a decision...

"Jump out smart or jump out stupid"

You decide.

Follow Volfan, I would say he's due to go on a tear. Hope you get out of the hole "Bet with your head, not over it"

guys,i know the best way out is to stop betting,but i also know if i could control my self on the betting,meaning one or two games a day,i could make it back,but my proleme is i want to make it back in a week,now i'll try to make it back slowly but surely.so thats why i'm asking for some help I CAN'T STOP PLAYING,I HAVE TO MAKE SOME OF IT BACK.that's the way a stupid gambler thinks,i admit,I'M ONE OF THEM.

HELP OR NO HELP,WORSE COMES TO WORSE,I'LL TRY MYSELF.

THANKS BY THE WAY.

Take a break. I've been there before. It's best to just take a break for a while. Stop until March Madness. You just need to drop back and punt. Lay low, and then come back having learned a very valuable lesson. If you HAVE to bet, bet single games (preferably big profile so you can watch it). Like pick the Fiesta Bowl. You'll watch it and want to bet, so take $20 on OSU to win. Big payoff, no real risk, and you get to gamble. But you can't keep betting lots of games.

"You can't lose what you don't put in play"

I know you don't want a lesson, but sometimes you have to stop and think. Read what you yourself posted. It should cause concern.

STEVEHAVS,

You sound like your are going to chase and put yourself in a deeper hole. Playing only one or two games a day sounds great but are you going to double up on them to get your money back?? Not a great idea. Best ADVICE: stop now and save your money....

Just my opinion but it sounds like you are going to take the consesus pick and POUND IT. Everyone on this site will tell you "YOU ARE PLAYING WITH FIRE".......

Good Luck... :)

BOOOOOOOO

BOOOOOOOO

I have been there as well. I know it does not make much sense at this point but handicapping has little to do with it. It all comes down to betting straight games with your money, save the two team parlays when you are up money. MONEY MANAGEMENT is the key. Easy to learn, hard to stick with, but quite simply the only way to come out ahead in the long run. Try the 1,2,3,5, system. has worked well for me over the years. I can agree with the above posts but I have been in your shoes before, I say lay the wood on the following plays and get that money back. Then you can switch to that money managament system I mentioned.

Boston College -4
Citadel +19
Nevada +5
and a very strong play on Memphis pick'em....

By the way disregard the post above that says bet on the high profile games so you can watch them on television. I have found that the publilc stays away from the smaller games and this allows a great advantage (at times) to those willing to invest a little time researching the days games. Don't just bet to watch tv, and certainly don't just bet to bet. Do a little home work on the smaller games and you will find a profit....:thefinger

You might want to try CS-Northridge for another 180 units, to have a 3-0 night and be up 230 units.

Stevehavs,

You're gonna do more researches?

What for?

What have those researches got you to this point?

And you're thinking of listening to the picks of guys in cyberspace you have never followed or know nothing about?

Lad...

He is all grown up...I am sure he is a big boy. He is down 23K and has to get it back somehow. Get big on Memphis and CS Northridge. That is a great play as well.....as for a cold streak like that I have to ask how long has it taken you to get there. Not to be an asshole but that is a really bad streak of luck. Anyhow it ends tonight....sell your Mazda Miata, pawn your VCR, go to the blood bank, pull some kids out at the sperm bank and lay it all on MEMPHIS.....you can thank me tomorrow.:thefinger
