If I were you, i'd just stop and pay. But if you had the money, you wouldnt be desperate enough to post this in a forum. You don't have the money, that's the whole reason you're betting, because you are a sports fan and think you can make cash calling sports. WRONG. Betting is aimed at sports fans who think they know everything there is to know about a team. The lines are designed specifically to get people like you. I'm going to give you some advice, stop betting. It took me 6 years to finally start betting "the right way" I'm a college student too, and I'm a senior this year....Oh boy I could go on for hours telling you about all the times I went down and had to go on "payment plans" with my bookies week to week in order to get even....it's HELL. I'll give you some advice: IF you continue to bet...
Bet like this...
What can you afford? I make 500 dollars a week bartending...with my bills I can't lose more than 200 or i'm really cutting things close.
What do I do? 25 dollars a bet 1/4 unit each bet. ALLLLL STRAIGHT BETS!!!!! (I know tonight i'm doing something different, but i'm up a good bit this week)
Betting sports is a lot like playing poker, you have to be patient, allowing your mind you're going to WIN BIG is a losers game. Winning small over time is how you win in this sport. Say you lose your first 5 bets...you're only down 125! and guess what, you'll average it back out...who cares if you go down one week that much, you still had fun watching the games didn't you?! But it's the week you get hot and go up 100 or 200 that at the end of the week you can throw down a parlay or 50-100 dollar bet...Betting like this, I almost always end up with some money at the end of the week, it's not a lot, but it's some extra money for doing what I love, wagering on sports/watching sports.
Long story short, pay the 450, join a free betting site like bet-bomb and start studying wagering...nobody besides maybe the 3% of professional cappers are going to go on 25-1 streaks, but if you stay above 500, you're pretty good! Take some time to figure out "spot bets" and reading lines. The lines and spots say much more than the players and their history against another team. Study it, play with the money you got, and be disciplined, and you can enjoy it without the stress.
BOL BUDDY!
I agree a lot with Mikey T said. DO NOT BET MULTIPLE GAMES A NIGHT! it may work for some but not most. chose one game you feel u have a good read on and bet that and only that no matter what happens. DO NOT CHASE! Losing sucks but noone goes undefeated. The following tips are what I learned from a very experienced capper.
1. If one side looks too good, consider the other side or stay away
2. FADE THE PUBLIC. do not bet on games where 70-80 % of public bets are... they win sometimes but not most of the time.
3. Watch the lines throughout the day. Where the line opened and how it is moving... Reverse line movement, real line movement, is the line holding tight ? u will learn what are these mean.
4. dont bet soley on skill...look at the spot. what has the team done recently and who do they play in the near future.
5. Lastly, do your best to figure out what side vegas wants u on and chose the other side ( easier said than done ). Last night was perfect example. Portland trailblazers at Wash wizards...Port favored by 1.5. they were begging you to take portland. majority of bets were on portland so i took wiz and it hit. bet small at first and learn as u go. GL my man. and stay in college. its worth it trust me. I work as a physician assistant, make a good living, married and bet one a game a night while the wife watches real housewifes or something and its fun as sh*t. hope this helps my man. take care and GL to everyone on here.
