He got it at -3 and pushed..  COme on... I told him you see man the problem is me.. Im the one that's is friggin unlucky

stay away from NBA, too unpredictable, any game can turn around at the drop of a hat.
practice bankroll management.

Worst thing you can do right now is bet all the rest of your bankroll on a parlay. Start betting strictly 25/game and work your way up. I know its hard to stay disciplined, but grinding it out is the better option. But GL if you decide to play a parlay.

Yeahh I know.. ive done it before.. but honestly in my last 10 bets I have had 5 bad beats... Its hard to keep faith when that happens.. I can take a loss.. If I get spanked.. ok it was a bad call on my part.. but when you have 5 games and 3 straight ones that where there and loss in that fashion.. Its just hard to keep a straight mind and try and stick wth the same discipline... I would have a better shot just flipping a coin to call my picks

Winners never complain about games being fixed.  Only losers.  If u can't handle the randomness of the games, then stop gambling.

A gambler has to be even keel - the games may be fixed sometimes  But over time, you will probably be on  the fixed side 50% of the time.

Go belly ache somewhere else.

Take a break when you are consistenly cold. Play one or two games MAX a day. Money management. Let go of yesterdays loss.

Im sorry my friend but you are wrong.. I was on the under in the Carolina vs Patroits game and quickly posted that that last play was a hold and they should have placed it in the 1 yard line so please don't speak for me...

I'm not saying that picking the right side (or total) in football is any cakewalk but at least the variable mentioned above seems to not play as much a part of a game's outcome in football as it does hoops.  One man's opinion.

Good luck bro..

sorry my brother  yeah the WASH game that coach might get fried the game is already over and he still runs the ball with 2 min to play unreal and run it 2 times he got lucky the 1 time. and what does he do run it again like I said you never see anything like that. that is the worst beat you can get because the game was already 100 percent done like I said he could get fired for running a play

I'll probably get banned from covers for mentioning this...but check out NFL breakdown sheets for some guidance on NFL line value.

Just to let you guys all know for what its worth Im going with the Oklahoma vs SA Over...  had a small lean towards the under in dallas but that is like playing Russian roulette.. I think the Oklahoma over has a good shot of coming threw
