What do I do? If I cancel it for him, you can bet your MOTHER FUCKING HOUSE Miami will win series.

I need him to lose this bet as it is quite large and he will inevitably chase.

Then again by not cancelling I could make him make bets throughout the series trying to hedge and pay more juice.

I'll have you know that last year as a player I won more money than what I had lost in the previous 11 years combined, and won that much more. Do you know how I did it?

I went against all the so called "experts" and touts.
I did everything against what your "professional" sports bettor would advice you to do.

Money management? Fuck that, a sure way to juice your money away.
Parlays a suckers bet? That's all I did!
I kept laying heavy public chalk.
I kept on betting heavy public OVERS, especially when they were 70+
And I had countless "All in's".

I went against the "systems" that did very well according to stats, instead I had my own "systems" or "sweet spots" when looking at the match ups gave me a certain rush or feeling.

Money management is all BS. How can one person make money and one person lose money betting the same thing? You might lose big on one selection but it might also just go your way, making it very hard for the books to get it back.

Two summers ago I used to deal blackjack on the side to make money. Do you know how this one guy played?

He would bet $5 on three spots, lose, bet $10 on three spots, lose, bet $20 on three spots. He would go on mad tilt and would not care about money, just wanted to win a goddamn hand.

At one point in time he had $50 on three spots each. He was delt:

8 - 8, 7 - 4 and K - K for 20. I was showing a 5 but of course, I had a 6 underneath that he did not know about.

He splits the 8's. Gets an 4, stays, gets a 3, doubles and bricks. Doubles the 7-4 and gets a deuce.

So now he has something that looks like:

$50 $50x2 $50x2 $50

Brick - Brick - Brick - 20

I open up my 5 - 6. Draw an Ace and a face. He celebrates in my face.

Next hand, he plays one spot $5. I felt like flipping the table over.

Basically betting Miami to win the series in 6 games at +500. If he wins this, he still loses the OKC series bet for a small profit. If OKC wins series (in 7 obv), he loses this bet he just made, small profit.

If Miami wins in 5 (most likely outcome) or in 7, he loses everything.

It's too bad basketball season had to finish while he was up. He still makes stupid bets in baseball by betting run-line parlays and shit. That's what he did today and his teams won by 2 and 1 run respectively costing him the parlay by 1 run.
