Down -171 units since I started gambling 2 years ago. This year I figured I’d pay for some help (LC) but as some of u know that has only lost me more money. Have any of u been down this much and actually come back from it or do u think the odds of that are slim and I should just give up gambling all together.
Does LC mean Letter of Credit? LOL Treat the lost money as if you never had it. Play only one game or two games a week until you figure out the niceties of sports wagering, then bet with your head, not with your heart. Don't bet just to have excitement watching games. NFL games can be analyzed until the first week of December in most years. After that you should stop betting on NFL games until the following September.
Brother, true advice, since it appears as if you are honestly looking for it:
1. Lower your goddamn stakes and play ridiculously low units. All your bets should be the same unit. Track your ROI. If you do not know how to do this just divide your ending bankroll by your starting bankroll after X time. Be honest with your tracking. Until you have a positive ROI do not move up in stakes. A 20% ROI is almost certainly impossible. You should aim at 5%.
2. Study. Find your mistakes. Look for tendencies. If you are down 171 units playing 1-3 units per bet, you are definitely doing something horribly wrong. If you are betting 20 units like some idiots in this forum, then you should reassess your concept of "unit".
3. Look for your profitable spots. If spread has not worked, explore props. Explore live totals.
4. Be disciplined. Follow the gameplan, develop your art and then trust the process you envisioned.
5. Do not pay for touts. All of them are idiots. Seriously all of them. If they are as good as they proclaim, they would not be selling picks for 25USD. They would be playing their picks for much more money or would have huge whales as customers. If there are truly profitable ones with 5% ROIs or better I guarantee you that their best picks are not being revealed.
6. Have fun. If you don´t enjoy this shit and are not appealed by trying to examine the games and find mistakes, then quit already.
Quit before you bankrupt yourself and lose everything!! 
will take all of this into consideration moving forward. I appreciate u taking the time to try and help. I don’t plan on “making a living” sports gambling but rather just have a little extra money to spend but at this point I’ve wasted about $17,100 which to me is a lot so I’m just trying to recoup some if not all moving forward. I’ll have to look back on this thread to remind myself of some of the advice u guys gave me. Bol to everybody here this season and if I continue to lose I’ll start posting so atleast u guys can fade and win lol
i do work for a living but I just started sports gambling 2 years ago thinking I can make a little extra money and see where it goes from there. I actually started out +14 units then went totally downhill from there lol moving forward I think I’ll just make 1 unit straight bets and see how that goes but either way thanks for your insight
This is great advice. Can't really be said better. Good luck man!
Come to my thread. Don't gamble anymore for now you need to change your mind set first. 3 easy teaser plays on a hot streak makes me $25k for $100 initial risk. Each losing sequence I have to risk another $100 but each winning sequence I win 25k in 3 bets. So I'd say it's very possible to recover but you aren't a pro at this so I recommend quitting until you come up with a solid system as I have. Make sure you monitor it over many seasons and are 100% sure it works long term. You can do this easily if you have the time by back capping the games..all the info you need to win is right here on covers
