Athletics also quite shaky, you are basically gambling on Graveman to hit the groove after a disaster of a start, while Fister has been decent - and the A´s aren´t THAT much better IMHO.

The Dbacks game feels like a coinflip that could go anyway. Nationals with Scherzer I like though, and Red Sox are red hot so why not?
So many sports betting experts in this thread. Mainly look at you Ex-Matt. No risk no reward, right?

For getting out of trouble I do think that your previous strategy of singles/doubles has a much better chance of working out, otherwise you are just running up your debt while hopping to hit that one big score like last time. And sooner or later there will be the time when your debt is ran up so high and your credit is so low that there will be no Hail Mary to catch for that huge one-time-come-on-just-this-one-time win that puts you back in the green.
First of all I am beyond desperate. Second of all you are looking at today’s matchups..I bet those picks yesterday.

Lol man this is a brutal
Stretch for me I haven’t hit a parlay in a while..and In fact whenever I have posted bets here beforehand they have always lost LOL. Makes it more annoying when people come in and critique the bets.

I am never going to take anybody’s advice on who to bet on. I never have and never will. It’s my money. If I bet on other people’s picks there’s no fun in that. And I sure as hell am not taking recommendations from people who come on here AFTER the parlays are done to tell me how stupid I am.

I’m going to keep posting. Screw it. Will only make it sweeter if I bink.

Astros
Mariners/Sox over 9.5
Nationals
Padres
Raptors -7
Okc -3.5

2k pays 80k.

Why dont you rate his bets before the players are at the bat and we all could see how good you are.. (not that anyone will take ur advice but at least if youre gonna rate someones bet dont be a prick and do it after the games).

its easy to be a genius after the cards are turned over right?

I hear you, Snipes. Since February I've lost roughly 45k chasing 3+ teamers. Decided I need to step away for a significant period of time and get my priorities straight. I know you struck lightning back in October of last year but the truth is that the home run parlay is a phenomenon that doesn't really exist. Even if you're lucky enough to smash one you'll eventually find yourself in search of another, until you choose that enough is enough and walk away.

Being desperate is ok but you are shooting from the hip snipes. At least in the fall we were late in the season and knew who was tanking and who was pressing and who the bookies had semi bad reads on.

I wish you the best but I also ask for your sake do a little more homework and try to nail a 4 teamer based on more than a total hunch Degen Stories....

I love sweating your parlays but I hate when they have a game or two that is DOA (like the Padres)

I wholeheartedly agree. Let’s keep in mind my 400k run was a $1500 deposit and all my bets were SINGLES. Heck I needed 50k just to cover a bill for the month and I all in’d 10k on a -300. I was thinking straight. I never have success with parlays because let’s face it..they’re fool’s gold.

I flip flop between parlays with favourites and parlays with games I would bet a flat unit on. That Padres bet I place 10/10 as a single. Is it something you should add in a parlay? Heck no. It’s brutal and the worst part is i see all my flaws. I can’t seem to stop them. I have an even bigger Hail Mary today. Believe t or not I had a winning parlay today in the evening but couldn’t get the bet down. I’ll dig into this when I get out of this mess so it seems
More believable as to what happened. Anyways I was really fading okc -2.5 because that would have been the final game of my winning parlay (6gamer but pushed one). Wouldn’t have given me the exact number I wanted but hell of close. Moot point but that put me on tilt so I placed this nonsense:


Don’t even wish me luck guys this needs more than that LOL.

Reds
Dbacks
Stl
Tigers
Yankee Twins over 9
Indians

2k pays...drumroll about 170k with bonus.

It's very hard for me to start over right now. My networth is in the minus..well unless you add the car. If I stopped up even 10kish it would be a different story.

I thought about stopping when my roll was 40. I didn't. 30 I didn't. And now here we are. I'd say I've lost about 60k now give or take a few k.

It really is a phenomenon and if I keep betting 2k per parlay and do 2 a day..in about 10 days I'll lose another 50k. This is a real bad time and I know it. I hope I escape again.

I understand what thread I am in, but this is just sad. You will never be able to have a friendly small punt in your life. You might as well just stick it all in and be done with it.

The problem, Snipes, is that the hole you're in has been created exclusively by gambling. Hence the reason to step away for awhile. The 45k I lost? I couldn't afford it either. I work a decent job which pays me twice a month. Without gambling I'd live a modest, upper middle class lifestyle. Unfortunately, like you, I'm not able to be satisfied with a simple even keeled existence. I crave the highs and lows. I'd love to be able to chase the 45k back with three teamers, hoping to bang one out, but the truth is I can't. Even just a week away from gambling fueled binges affords you the opportunity to open your eyes and see how desperate and selfish the behavior is. I know you can't walk away at the moment so maybe it's best to do as Natamus mentioned, start betting singles to get some momentum back. At least that way with a few smaller wins you'll be able to cover some of your existing debts, keeping your head afloat. Best of luck man, everyone here is rooting for you(Ex-Matt not withstanding).

My tigers won't let you down today.

Any good sports bettors need that ev to be + not -

Never ever beat a bookies with random picks because they give a crap odds

You can bink and have fun doing it plus you could be that 0.1 that beats variance by running like the bolt man

I bet exchanges as at least I can get nice prices on golfers and other sports and hope bink

Take major bookies odds and think can win without being a nit who knows there stuff and chase odds , tiny bad lines and hope they don’t limit you to ten pence a game

Or think you got it all worked out because you ran like the bolt man on a rape charge.....

With my total debt number around 20-25k now I have almost no liquid cash. I’m also owed $28k by my dad so you can imagine how much I’m sprawling. I got my girl to send me 3k to pay off one of my friends and have around $1k that’s not credit. After busting 3 parlays yesterday worth 2k each I’ve now lost around 60-65k total during this brutal stretch.

I sat there bored so I logged into my friend’s betway and deposited 1k. Sent him the cash. Played BJ like a savage. $200 hands 3 spots with a 1k bankroll. LOL. Got it to 2500 and blasted $500 a hand 3 spots.

16 soft 17 and a 44. Two splits..got 11 on one..double end up with a 16 LOL. Hit the soft 17 can’t double it because no more $.

So I got 5 hands across the table and my best hand is 16. I hit the soft 17 and pulled a 5 lol. Dealer had a 6 by the way. He turns over a 4.now I’m dead. Next card 6. Next card 6. Bust.

Got to 5k and blasted it on the following parlay. So I’m chasing about 65k. This one pays 80.

Nationals
Cardinals
Blue jays
Mets
Whitesox

Snipes shove some lighter fuel up your anal passage

Then start inhalation of gas , make sure to wipe the topmof the lighter fuel

You will then get a rush in your arse and your brain

It is so good of a feeling you want ever want to get again as you will be to busy getting high

That's how I gave up and never looked back since m8

Take it easy and good luck m8

LOL I'm not telling Snipes what to do with his money. I'm telling him hes bad at sports betting. He's honestly like Krusty the Clown putting all his money against the Globe Trotters cause he thought the Generals were due.

I dont think you truly comprehend how hard it is to win a 3 game parlay...meanwhile youre betting 4/5 gamers on a sport u know nothing about lol.

BTW

Betting on the Cavs tonight -1.5 at 2.10x is the lock of the year.

edit:

TooLateTooGreat:

I was on Snipes side last year when he was in debt before. I gave him the same advice you did after he won 365k or something insane. I told him to bet small on single or 2 game parlays and just grind away. But he let a 2week heater get into his head and he pissed it all away lol.

What I'm getting at, Ex-Matt, is insulting a guys sports betting ability when he's going through a serious rough stretch and low point serves no purpose.
