I'm down like $1k, I don't even want to look at my balance...how do I get back in the game? I've been betting way over my means and now I'm chasing my losses :( how do I control myself? I want to use money management but when I know I'm down $1k it feels impossible to try and grind my way back up, does anyone have any strategies?

Forget about the 1k. Its gone. If you start betting to get that 1k back you will be down even more.

Take a few days off and start again. Just worry about one game at a time and you will get it back eventually.

I will have my NBA Preseason Game of the Year this week.  Do NOT make anymore bets until I release this game. I OWN the NBA, load up on this pick.  

Stop trying to do it on  your own.

I was SO BURIED going into today.  Bama killed me straight and in some teasers. Over 4 gezzles down.

THE COMEBACK

1.  The sweat out bet.....NO teased to the over.... 2000
2.  Denver teased to the over....2000
3.  Denver -8....500
4.  Over............500

So needed today...not here to throw this into your face Mr. Baws,
only that a come back IS possible.  And everyone has different units, and I can appreciate yours.

BOL in your comeback

If you have no discipline I would advise you to quit and call Gamblers Anonymous  U sound like a degenerate gambler who has no control and is just throwing darts at the board.

anything you learn in life is an education- consider you paid 1000 dollars to learn that you , yes you, specifically maybe should not gamble. Someone else will pass on that education- if you chaulk it up as a school tuition to learn first hand about what it feels like to be down a lot- take that to the bank. A year from today, if you never bet again- your up in ways guys dream about. Just stop.
