Figuring out a way to pay or tell the bookie u need more time etc.. finding ways to get the money. That’s the shitty stressful part over the next few days. Been doing it this was for years. It is a slipery slope for sure. I tried DK and Fandual. I am old school and I find these sites full of fluff and things aren't as direct easy. Having to sift through all the minutia just frustrates me and I deleted the apps.
agree 100%, rather have a good call in local any day over these sites.

Thanks everybody for your kind words and wisdom. I truly appreciate you all taking the time to offer advice. I'm going to attempt to quit for good but as we all know it's a very hard thing to do. Put a flier in before the season ironically on arizona to win the natty so as my last bet, let's hope that wins (even though I don't see it personally). Good luck to you all.

i feel you bro. i had UCLA too for 5000 and felt like cursing to the f world. the bet amount indicted that i am not a responsible person and will never be a parent for the rest of my life.
it is either you quit the betting life, or kept on going. Pay off the debt and wager for candy money.
my problem sometimes is i don't stick to my plan, and my plan of often good until i doubt on cover's pick. the general rule is to figure out what is the real favorite team and you put money on the opposite side. Work 70% of the time.
good luck. Develop you own wager rules, then put it on paper, and do not watch the live game on TV... lot of fake stuff to show the in-game bets.

As gamblers we all know we have winning streak we have losing streaks and then there are weeks when we’re just up and down and break even the key is when you’re losing the layoff which is really fucking hard to do and a lot of times when I’m winning it’s like I don’t push it because I’m afraid to lose it back gambling is a viscous fucking cycle it really is. How many of you guys knew before the NFL season started it was gonna be a shit year I knew it I’ve been doing this a long time and I fucking knew it all of the quarterback trades the coaching changes the injuries and sure enough it was probably the worst NFL season for gamblers ever I did a layoff nope I lost a lot of money and right nowI got a limb saying this NCAA tournament beware it’s going to be the fucking worst covers bloodbath there’s no dominant team it’s gonna be really ugly you watch to Cinderella they’re gonna end up playing for the championship and everybody’s gonna lose their ass I can see it now….just my opinion .hopefully I won’t get dragged into it but I probably will lol

The hardest part of any addiction, is to admit you are powerless over it and need help.
Most losing gamblers never want to admit to themselves they are terrible at picking winners because they don't want to admit they are clueless at something that seems so easy because they truly believe they are knowledgeable of whatever sport they are betting on.
Quitting is your only option to having any resemblance of a normal life.
The human mind, and free will usually stand in the way of degenerative gamblers from escaping their out of control gambling addiction.
It's up to you whether or not you want a relatively normal life or not.

I think some of you guys need to take is as expensive entertainment rather than addiction.
that being said wage for fun if you can’t step away. The problem here is we take it too serious and chase.
I’ve learned to tell myself alright this game will bet a no bet and watch the game to see what the results is and if there’s a part I misread and end up just having fun watching the game. Like last night with ucla and Arizona game.no wage but Very fun game to watch. I don’t know if that can help any of you but if you can’t step away from gambling don’t punish yourself take it one step at a time.

Look as we know life is too short. We have people that love us.
we’ve also busted our asses outside of gambling.. yea we want to hit the home run and win big. But unfortunately for some us we aren’t always that lucky. So again take it easy if you bet have fun and watch the game rather than just numbers in your screen.

I used to bet big too. Not over $10k a bet but $3-5k. I did lose a bit but I stop betting large not worth it. You can have hot and cold streaks. Your cold streaks usually are worse then your hot as you can constantly chase until your broke

You are not alone. Starting this thread was a good step. Just take accountability with the book. Tell him you need access shut down until paid (important you say until paid, because then he will feel like he's still got a customer in you). Make a payment plan you know you can afford and stick to it. The feeling of not being a man of your word can be almost as bad as the money.
You need to change your routines immediately. Daily affirmations, notecards on the nightstand....read them every night before bed and every morning when you wake up. Delete all the sites from your faves. Honestly, don't come back here either....I fuck around on the forums but this place is a cess pool minus a couple high character dudes.
I'm sorry bro, but you can beat it. Im rooting for you.
