So I recently got into sports betting because of a stupid younger cousin of mine who introduced me to it, and today I can say it has completely crushed me.

I dropped $750 on Miami Heat beating Cavs :( I know, but the odds were crazy and would've raked in over 6k.
I also dropped 1k on Memphis to beat OKC. Again I was lured by the hefty payout.

So to make the money back I immediately dropped 1.5k in the 4th Quarter for Dallas to beat Utah by +7, that didn't happen as Utah almost won :(

Now I am seething, I literally emptied my bank account to win all that back. I dropped 1.6k on Houston to beat Clippers. They lost :sadbron:

Now I'm broke as shyt with $90 in my bank account. I just transferred $50 to my sportsbook account to start all over :(


I have no idea what got me to this. I've never been a gambler in my life. But I made some money early and thought I could keep winning.........

I have 1.8k coming in next week, this time I'll stick with the favourites. I'm getting that money back!! And then quitting for good.

Moral of the story is folks, don't gamble. You may win some, but in the long you you'll ALWAYS lose.

Damn I feel ya breh. I been on a terrible losing streak lately. One thing you should know is to never chase your bets or bet when your still angry or disillusioned that you lost, that's how you end up losing big. You need to set an amount that you're comfortable losing and stick to that.

The favorites don't always come in either. You're best doing an hour or two's research on a short list of games and go with one or two you're really confident in. There is always upsets so nothing is guaranteed. My problem is I get too greedy and lump too many teams on. When I stick to just one or 2 I have a much better record.

How much do you need this money? What if you lose again?
