sports is for the money. Other bets like if i say i am right and they disagree and I know I am right I wll bet them just to prove a point.

I play for the (High) (Rush) that feeling you get when you spend hours looking for that one game that is money and you find it......and when it plays out like you predicted it's another rush....How much money you wager on a game is a big factor also....if i put alot of money on one parlay 2 games.....i get that rush again at kick-off or first pitch or puck drop in any game....But it all comes down to "Money" if i couldn't make money sports betting i would stop tommorrow....and spend all my free time playing poker lol....
