I am in debt 14,000 dollars to my father....he had to cover me due to gambling in the past....he told me if i did it again our relationship is gone forever and he no longer wants to be known as my father...he cant take what im doing with my life
 
im a 20 year old kid just working not in college making only 400 dollars a week paying him 200 dollars a week....
 
last week i won 850 dollars first week back in betting...of course i got the feeling that i was the man...
 
Monday and Tuesday night i lost 3200 dollars so i was in the hole 2400 or so cuz of the 850 i was up prior.....i didn't want to bet anymore but my father CANT find out about this and i have no one else to spot me this money so i seriously feel that i have to win it back gambling.... i originally wanted to take just the tigers for 2500 and just get even but of course i didn't want to have it ALL on that and have it be 0-0 in the 7th inning...i i put 1200 to win 1000 on that and 1000 to win 1400 on the orioles....so i broke even still in the hole 2400
 
I am a pretty big lakers fan.....did not want to touch this game cuz i thought the line was crazy...i loved spurs but would never bet them cuz im a laker fan even with the 7.5 points
 
As gametime nears and as the orioles keep not scoring i play lakers - 4 in the first half and of course spurs dominate them in first half....lost 1100 on that by the way....i get 2nd half line its -7 lakers....I want to take lakers so bad considering im a lakers fan and they're home and everything but i was told to bet with my gut not my heart and since i NEVER listen to that i figured i finnally would....i take spurs +7 for 2200 to win 2000
 
Spurs go up 20 points with 5 mins left in game and blow the lead and i lose....i am in the hole around 6000 dollars and my dad CANNOT find out about this i dont know what the hell i should do guys
 
I cant believe this happened to me i really cant i dont know what to do i cant sleep and i cant take it....my dad cant find out guys i have to either win it back somefuckinghow or borrow this money somefuckinghow

didn't we ALL tell you to lay off the gambling for a while?  Plus the fact that you are betting WAYYYY beyond your means.  If you are making 400 bucks a week, why the fuck are you betting more than twice that?  Money management my friend...gotta learn it if you want to survive.

Why are you betting thousands of dollars when you don't have it?
 
GL, you better work it off.
 
Or you could double up on the Celtics.

if this is for real, you need to man up, get another job and somehow pay back your bookie on some type of payment plan.  but you need to not chase to get back into it.

if this is not for real, you should suck older guys cock for $20 per load and keep betting with your heart.

Honesty is your best option, man up to him that you
have a problem, he should be there for you.
If you continue to bet the hole gets deeper, cut your losses now.
Lastly, do not by any means do anything brash ie. rob a bank,
mug someone or afflict bodily harm to yourself.
As in Sports, in team we trust, family is the same.
Hang in there.

No shiit! What the hell is a 20yo doing betting that kind of cash! When I was your age I was betting $10 parlays with my local bookie. Your too young to know the intracacies of big time gambling. As for what to do now?.. I don't know.. a second job? Bank loan?.. I really don't know?!

START PAYING YOUR BOOK 100 A WEEK, YOUR DAD 200 AND QUIT FOR GOOD...THIS ISN'T FOR YOU....ALSO, FIND A BETTER PAYING JOB...SOMETHING IN SALES WHERE YOU CAN PAY EVERYONE OFF IN ONE TRANSACTION.

Dude, seriously, you are just trying to gain pity with yet another post, and you are looking for it at the wrong place.  We've all been in this situation one way or another.
 
Why don't you just stop?  Are you that sick?  You need to seek PROFESSIONAL HELP if you are still betting being this much down.
 
And what are you still doing on a computer down over 14,000?  You best get that thing your typing on to the pawn shop immediately.

go to a GA meeting.  Stop gambling.  Don't come back to this site.  In fact, don't watch sports for a while.  If you have a local bookie, get on a payment plan and work 2 jobs to pay it off.  I feel bad for you kid but do what I said and eventually you will be ok.

if you dont have the money then tell your bookie to fuk off and take your beating..... that is if your bookie is bigger than you... if he is smaller beat his ass and tell him to leave you alone
 
thats the best advice i can give you
 
you do not want to ruin your relationship with your parents
 
STOP GAMBLING

yea best response seems to be just tell your father, be real and tell him the truth. TELL HIM I HAVE A FUCKING PROBLEM, AND IM GETTING HELP. MAYBE HE'LL HELP YOU OUT, MAYBE HE WONT, im sure you dont have  a better option. he IS your father after all.
