Wanna Stop Betting.... Please Help

[FX4233]

Have been doing real well this year but hit a stop where i was down 240, slowly started climbing back and was +100 going into today, everyone said they loved the card so i decided to just tail and got murdered like everyone else, down -140 now, i kinda want to just cut my losses and move on but i feel like my bookie would win, and here i am telling everyone sportsbettings not 50/50. please help i'm just trying to keep betting without chasing and making stupid decisions, should i take a break? but i only do football so idk if theres enough time for a break, i just wanna get back on top

If you can't afford to lose 140 bucks then it is time to quit and take up a new hobby

gambling is more fun when you set limits. You dont have to take big risks to have big fun. All that jazz. Brother if your betting scared get out now and cut your losses at 140. GL whatever you decide man

[mrwho]

shit man..i am happy if i lose only 140/day and i'm serious. if its stressing you out that much then just stop playing..only play with money you can afford to lose.

If you are in it to win money and you're stressed out over $140, quit. Not sure how old you are or anything, but just from this thread I don't think Gambling is for you.

When you bet, you should comfortable no matter the outcome. When you start betting and you are so nervous of Losing that you start to stress, it is time to take a break/quit altogether.

If you decide to take a break, take as long as it takes to build up money you are willing to lose, even if it means you don't bet again until NEXT NFL Season.

It's all about percentage of bankroll. That's why most post "units" or "stars" rather than dollars because the actual amount should be based on your bankroll.

Sounds to me like you're not playing against a bankroll - that is a huge mistake. You need to have money DEDICATED to gambling, just like you have money for alcohol, rubbers, whores, cigarettes, etc...
When that money is depleted, take a break until you build up a bankroll. And even when you have a bankroll, don't go crazy with it - make it last; even through days like yesterday. Sure, we all took one on the chin, but I guarantee you you'll still see the top cappers here posting away with their plays. I know my unit size will go down dramatically (geez, I had 15 units on the Texans yesterday). But the only reason they went up was because I had a great Friday and Saturday.

You'll do okay, man. Just don't bet what you can't afford to lose. In fact, don't expect to win at all, so that when you do it makes the win even sweeter.

thanks, and just for clarification i'm down -140 units* my units 25 so i'm down 3,500$

[iggs111]

so you were up 2500 and gave all that back and are now down $3500???
