Quit sportbetting!

How long have you been betting sport?

Wait you said sport as in singular...are you talking about a specific sport like pickle ball or all sports?

30 years here, in various capacities of course.

Very few can make this a career IMO. But if you are using this as entertainment and not betting what you can't afford to lose then why quit?

All in do!!!

No way. Not happening 

pssst, come here  the trans-gender room is over there --------------------------------------------->

You just joined Covers and this is your thread? We need a forum "shrink" on call here. There are alot of people who are confused and could use some help.

My entire life I have been betting since 12 months old

I remember seeing this quote a few years ago and it went along the lines of '' Lol how do these morons even find this site '' 

I was just checking some basketball odds at https://stake.jpn.com/basketball/ when I saw this. Anyway, I don't think you really have to quit. You just really have to be mindful of your spending habits and be wise about it that's all.

^^^^^ THIS

Have been here at Covers for 20 years and been sports gambling for over 50 years.  Half a CENTURY and like a cockroach you cannot kill me.  The only way they can kill you is if you allow them an opportunity to do so.  If you want to let your entire bankroll ride on one wager then sooner or later you will be extinct.  

Still seems silly and irresponsible to me Porky. Its OK because they losing what they can afford to lose. Like it's OK since you haven't resorted to bank robbery or embezzling from your employer yet. Sounds like a drunk justifying his irresponsible behavior by saying hey I haven't killed anyone in a drunk driving accident yet. 

Gamblers often say they can afford to piss money away so it's ok. What happens when you get sick, have health issues so you can't work, have a family emergency and you gambled your money away ? The money you thought you could afford to piss away.

Irresponsible behavior is irresponsible behavior even if you aren't paying grave consequences for it just yet. 

So at least be honest with yourselves as you continue to lose to the juice, just as EVERY person before you did in the long run. Be honest with yourselves that you are making horrendous choices. 

It's been over a year.

my junior year in HS 1968-69  3rd super bowl I think...   Colts -18 over Jets   I am a NY Giant fan but hate the colts even more then the Jets who I also hate. But took the +17 or +18 points and cheered for Namath and company  My hs buddy's uncles owned a stationary store that we would go to the magazine section and read x-rated girlie magazines. Never knew he was a bookie and I gave $20 to him +17 points on the Jets.  He explained the Colts could still win but needed to win by over the 18 points. I remember saying I could still lose the game and win. So my 1st bet was a winner when the Jets won 16-7. And the main reason betting the Jets was I hated Butkus and company so much since they always beat the Giants. In school a few days later was an envelope with $40 bucks.. My $20 and the winning $20 . . What an easy way to make money .. lol 

Exactly  ! 

@Box and one

Great story. But, no vig? (22/20)  Nice guy.

Tough hobby. Take care.

Money management bet less than 5% of your bankroll per bet. Fade the public. Don't chase loses. Quit after you win big.
