I mean if anyone needs money badly .. they'd tried to double up

I can go on a street corner and beg & I would make more than 1k.


So ya feel for your loss, but the #'s don't add up


I was thinking this as well. Unless he bet the Heat on the spread.

Sorry for your loss, but yeah I hate this team on the road. I remember Clippers had a bunch of people out they blew a double digit lead and cost me.

This makes me feel a helluva lot better about the bad week I've been having. Jesus christ man. If you needed the extra 1k that bad you should have taken out a loan or a credit card or borrowed from your 401k or anything.

Honestly this is what all books live for, you get up and feel so good about laying some wood then when you are down you can't believe you went so large on a single play... 

I wouldn't risk more than 10% of your losses trying to recoup either. Learn a lesson and get out of the hole before its not too deep for you to crawl out..

Nothing is guaranteed in the gambling world as I realized it from the warriors vs lakers game a couple weeks ago

I cant believe what I just saw. I have never felt like this before.

Completely broke now and couldnt even bet anymore if I wanted to.

I think the game was fixed. 

Oh Jesus.

Go over to the investments forum. Do some due diligence before thinking about investing, but I can say I am in the 1% who makes it in the OTC. I just gave out a penny stock that won the drug of the year award in China. Im holding it until .10 and I got in at .0020..You can trump what one would make grinding out daily with the sports...I made 10,000% on a penny back in Jan 2014..

You assume all the risk though if you take the chance, but feel free to coat tail me if you want! Im hoping to help change some financial lives in 2016 with some of my picks, but there is no guarantee and MURPHY'S LAW exists..You could lose every last penny you invest, but you could also make a mint...

Lol. This makes my day. Thanks bud.
But dont end your life because of money.
There are much more to live for.
And yes, you should stop betting if that is how you bet.

I am thinking of taking a huge loan and putting it all on Pacer ML

Any chance Indiana loses today?

Denver/Pacers/Cavs/OKC ML parlay is a good semi-lock. Denver/Cavs/OKC ML is a sure lock. Not confident about Pacers especially in the 4th quarter.

Don't know if you're trolling or not, regardless I would say stop the gambling asap. You're on tilt and will make bad decisions. Take a few days/weeks off to cool off, and reassess the situation at that time. Otherwise you're heading into a deeper hole, almost 100% guaranteed.

Not sure if you are trolling but if you really want to moneyline wait for golden state to play at home bro... NOT THE PACERS, they can absolutely lose to magic

I dont think he is trolling. There really are people this crazy out there. You see tons of homeless here in vegas.

Gambling is an addiction. I know the spot this guy is in. I've also risked everything I had before too. 

Ok, do NOT bet Pacers. They probably will win, but you need to find a good solid ATS play to bet on and BET LESS. Stop betting favorite ML plays. That is NOT the way to go. 

Not trying to sound harsh here, I am trying to make sure you understand how bad of an idea this is.

6 and 7 pt favs are the WORST in NBA. They lose outright more often that 3 pt favorites do. So you are wasting juice just to give yourself a better chance of losing.

Take Denver -6.5 (or ML) or Portland ML instead. I like Denver to cover tonight that's the only reason I say that. I know it goes against the advice I just gave not to bet 6 or 7 pt favs but Pelicans are in a bad spot tonight

Either way this is a major risk, if you bet everything you will usually lose. and it's your choice if you decide to take it.

Take 10% of your loan and put it on Boston +3.5.

Trusting Denver in NO seems way scarir than trusting Indiana at home against Orlando...

I do kind of like Portland tho

Why you so hype on Denver?

More to do with the Pelicans being absolute horseshit. But then you can say the same about Lakers yesterday and they won against a good Miami team...
