Capodecina...I feel your pain and loss for direction at this point man. I don't post much on here but since I'm feeling where you are coming from I figured I would say some words, if at all possible to help you in any way. A few years back i was down big, said F it and put $500 down on a 25 team parlay on 5dimes. I hit it in a little over 5 weeks between college and NFL ml's, mostly high juice of course. Hit for a little over 28K. Was that stupid? Yes. Was I very lucky? Yes. To paint a picture of the roller coaster my 24th game was seattle ml against detroit on thursday night. I know you remember that one where detroit fumbled at the goal line and seattle dude hit it out the back of the endzone....no flag. I thought it was done before that. Talk about lucky. I was doing laps around the living room. That saturday i think i picked Baylor to beat kansas.....juice was probably -650000 just to get it done. Crazy. My point is you can dig yourself out of a hole, however ask yourself how much more are you willing to lose in the process. Some good advice on here was to stop gambling, however we both know we love that action, so that might not happen for you. That might not ever happen for us. Since that big hit, I tried the 25 teamer again several times and it never happened. At the end of the day it is just too much. Too many things can go wrong, and they do. What I have found to be successful however, is open 15 game teasers. For the past 2 years I have hit one that set up a nice bankroll for the season. 13 points/ties reduce/15 games/+875. 12.5 points/ties reduce/15 games/+1100. Throw a couple grand on either and you would be right back in it. What I like with those is you can take however long necessary to find those "perfect" games. I am very selective, maybe 1-3 max games per week. I will not pick a game unless I am getting a minimum of 10 points. Find a nice home dog and you could get over 2 TD's. I made a thread earlier in the year about these teasers. Last year I compiled the data for every game, except week 17, utilizing the 13 point tease and the majority of games, either side would have won. One thing to keep in mind, I have the teaser promotion on 5dimes, which gives me slightly better odds than what you might see if you dont have it. Easy switch with customer service. If i were in your shoes, i would give it 1 last big shot. Say 4-5K on one of those teasers. for the 13 point, payout would be 35K or more. Take your time with it. 1 game a week maybe. If it happens, you are back. If not, feel good about stopping all the stress and drama that is gambling and save your money and enjoy life as it was meant to be enjoyed. Much luck and success to you man. Take it easy.
