I feel sad so don’t be mean, u bunch of tards...
Got paid out cricket bet as dead heat rules won a bit as I had outsider of the two teams ( he said sorry so he still alive )

Any ways I said I will just put 20 in machine and blah blah I lost all money from bet and more . Doing same thing over and over again and expect different out come ( slot players) oh but I won once from 10 times so it is ok to play. Am stupid who plays slots omg me.

Anyways am on snaffulle puss or whatever his name is in the open he is -9 tied with Jordan the bore took a rerrible price
For him 5/1 wanted a dog cheer in the golf and slim chance he get me out of a tiny hole

Also have tiger and Kuchar at big odds but wrote them of as they are 4 back with 18 holes left not going happen unless top order all play bad. To many above them for that to happen

Wish I was on the Spieth master pre tournament as he looks good to win it

Can’t or I won’t back at price he is now as to short . Unless he wins then the price was huge....

And if you would of took my bet you would of lost . It took me 48 seconds from start of cute Japanese moans.

Is it just me or is there any one else who bets to enjoy watching sport more?

And when it comes to watching sports you have money on . Never being able to watch it because it is to stressful to watch when there’s money involved?

I should just bet on flip of coin as better odds and it is less stressful

Ask this question should I keep betting and think am going to enjoy watching the sports more with money on then being a pussy and not watching due to stress of having money on it?

Or should I stop as I only bet to enjoy the game more?

Am starting wondering why I do it? It is not to make money as I understand the book has edge I can’t beat unless I work at getting good prices and only bet sport we’re think line wrong.

I don’t and never will do that as am to lazy and know even if I did I could still lose long term.

So might sound stupid but what would you say as advice? If I like the advice I might send you a dic pic..

Honestly I know answer really is what do you think ?
Just give up mong...

Maybe if I hear others I might believe it.

Also do you think the long term stress of betting is bad for mental health?

Think all that anxieties when your bet is close to winning and either wins or lose

It is like a drug I think when you are in moments of win or lose that is like a intense rush . Maybe it is that intense moment we keep coming back for?

If it not about winning money, then why do we keep coming back again and again?

I know my life would be a lot
More chill if I never did it, humans are simply but also super complex.

You can only understand one thing at a time

But there is infinite things to understand

So surely we are only understanding one thing at a time

Which means we understand nothing.

Squirrels store nuts but can only eat one at a time

Humans store knowledge but can only think of one thing at a time

So really we’re only able to think of one thing at a time

There is infinite humans emotional and logic and can only work on one at a time

We’re simply but know that things are infinite is kind of annoying..

I used to bet just for sweats, then things started getting serious. Mulitple losses leads to bigger bets.

Mulitple wins, while betting small, i would tilt, thinking "im a lil pussy, i play like ****, bookies are trying to give me money and yet i dont want the full value??? but when i run bad i give them the full value??? " and that thought would tilt me.

This is why i dont play sports as much as i used to, and if i do, id just blast away, that way if i win i would feel happy and not tilt for no reason.

Ive come to a conclusion that even if games are "+ev", i would still lose, due to tilt, greed, degen evs, which leads to everything being -ev.

I go to a 2/5/10 PLO game where everyone there plays like leon and matt kirk, small business owners just want to gamble, no tryhard players. 3-4 ways all in happens at least 3 times every 10 hands. ive built decent bankrolls from nothing in days all the time, and i did it with skill, not luck, ppl dont know anything about PLO there. However some days when my sets dont hold up, i would tilt away, gamble preflop, blast away on some over/under sports game, and would end up broke. So all the money ive made there has been giving back in other forms of gambling.

I have a few friends at a casino, same story - grinds out poker, made alot of money really fast. but would ended up hitting the pits after mulitple losing days. Ended up broke and would borrow money and repeat.

So theres really no "+ev" in my degen world. gotta find ways to get out of this world soon.... after im done dealing with my debts, i will seriously quit gambling, i mean quit forreal, no small bets for "fun", no gamble once in a blue moon, but QUIT forever.

Lost 1600 online last weekend after a spell of abstinence, won £1500 yesterday playing roulette in the bookies, today I went back to bookies won another £500. Went back up there this afternoon and lost £3500. Sicko.
Won 18k up the casino earlier in the year but have lost over half that back now.
I’m done with gambling now.
I’m in no debt but 18 years of gambling is taking its toll.
I’m never coming back to this site either.
I need to put this disease to bed.
I don’t actually need to win money so what’s the f***ing point ?

Snipes -
You acting aghast, holier than thou and mortally wounded when people question whether you'll pay back your parents is sad and deluded. In your mind, you have it all figured out. Unfortunately, that's what led you to where you're at now and involves dragging everyone else down with you.
So your plan is to take everything your family owns, make it right and live happily ever after? What about the gambling addiction? I think you're going to cause a lot more pain before you take a step in the right direction.
Should you give up? no
Should you make other people responsible for your problems? no
Time to grow up and take responsibility for your life.

Hey if snipes wants to fire shots at someone who has their life in order while his is shattered and broken then literally every single avenue of insults / trolling is fair game.

I didn’t say you were wrong, but that you have to live with your forum rep going forward. Take that however you choose.

F u if think am tajeing school English to post forums. Am a going spell this way for the ever and as long as my mum says it is very good I don’t care

I fully accept the role as the forum *******. Thats not who i am in real life. I know theres no way to prove it but I keep it real no matter what.

If i see a scenario, im gonna comment on it as accurately as I can without sugar coating ****. I dont care how i come off to a group of strangers. I really dont. I know who I am and people clsoe to me know it too, and thats good enough for me.

I dont need approval from the internet, and i also dont need to rob my family blind ala snipes.

edit:

dont be impressed with alwaysfoldings' ideas. I blocked him so long ago because hes a pathetic forum dwelling piss-ant. The only reason i see his posts is because my browser doesnt keep me logged in.

edit 2:

I'm gonna rag on snipes and kick him into the ground forever because I tried offering the guy solid advice. I really did try to help him avoid going broke, even to meet up with him in real life and talk about degen activity (we are both in Toronto) and he chose to ignore and acted like he knows better.

edit 3:

think of me as Kanish from rounders, cept im not a ****** jew.

Gotta admit, I like people that speak their minds.

Give em hell Matt


Hope snipes situation somehow works itself out


We need more stories. Come on guys. Guess I’ll share one myself from about a week ago.



**Kinda long post… sums up the last 2 weeks or so playing poker.**
So I am leaving my current job to go back to my old job (another job I hate) and since I am going to be leaving in ~2 weeks (at the time) I figure who cares if I am out “sick”
I work until approx. 430pm M-F, and live approx. 4hrs15 min from Borgata. Well its Thursday and it’s the last day to enter the $600 CarlAlwaysRunsLikeAPrick 1M GTD they run. So I say I have a Dr. Appt to leave @ 1pm. My office has lunch at 1230, so I figure if I say 1, ill really just leave at 1235 once they leave, just to give me an extra half hour. So I take off to the Borgata and naturally people can’t drive so there are tons of accidents. It takes me over 5+ hours to get there.
I enter the last flight of the tourney. I already see some of the clowns I cant stand. You know, the ones who make those stupid ass faces as they bet hands. Headphones half on their heads, ipads out, thinking they are some pro. Dude, you’re 49 years old and suck at this game. Anywho, I got Bozo #1 in a hand and he just tilts me starring at him. I look down @ 46dd. Bozo #1 opens UTG and 3 callers come along. I call late position and we see a flop. 3h5s7s. BOOM. Lets go you prick.
He makes another stupid face that would easily cause someone on edge to finally snap. SB checks BB checks, he jams 37k. I am sitting on 19k (started with 25k) I also shove. Now action back to the SB… tanks tanks tanks… and calls. I flip over my 6/4 like a G. Suck it Dbag. He turns over Q10ss…. And SB turns over 38ss. Sweet. Oh wait… turns a 4… rivers a 6…. 38ss scoops with the 8 high straight. F off.

Proceed to reenter 4 more times, get it in ahead every time except once, and you know the rest. So naturally life tilt. Left work early, down about 3k.. and its like 1am so there is no way I am driving home. So I of course call in sick Friday morning (planned perfectly to leave thur for the doctor appt) and I decide to enter the 150k GTD $100 bounty tourney. Before the day even started I just knew how it would end up. And I was exactly right. I played literally all day, until the very last level and get AK. I got about 17bb. Maniac opens, and a guy to my right slowly grabs his chips (HANDS SHAKING LIKE CRAZY) “RAISE”. F U tubby. Im all in. folds around he he piles his chips in. Naturally AA.
Flop is 10dKh3d. I have Ad. Turn is the Qd…. Wow … can it be? Can we… NO F U. River Queen. GG. Thanks for stoppin’. So now its about 130am and we sprint to the car and drive home as fast as we can screaming out the window. About 2 hours in…. I decide to fire up the PPPoker app! Proceed to get it in as an 87% favorite for 2k and lose. F*cking sick day, im down 5k. Want to murder someone. Absolutely raging.
Fast forward 3 days later, I deposit $200 on Ignition and run it up to 4.2k – Sweet. Got most of my $ back. Ok if we could just… AND ITS GONE. Sat 10/20 PLO and continued to run like a dumb ****. Gone. F’ing GONE. F poker.

Great. So I essentially just think to myself how I torched close to 10k and how I remember why this game is so dumb, and how I wish it was outlawed for the world. Well I fire up $400 one last time on PPPoker and sit 5/10 PLO and run it up to 5k. Wooo! 48 hours later won another 2k or so. Took a cashout of 4k, got most of my $ I blew away. Felt lucky and deposited $500 on ignition last night. Decided to take a shot @ the $162 112k Sunday Special and the $325 100k Gtd. Get sucked out on (typical) in the 100k and bust early 100s for a cash worth $300 or something. Dip down below to 2bb in the $325 tourney, run it back up and somehow am in 9th with 49 players to go and 19k up top.

Don’t worry guys .Its the same old story with me and Ignition. Always get a nice double, have a good stack and then ALWAYS lose 1-2 pots right after, get it in ahead, and lose. Same thing here again. After my double I find myself with JJ. Chip leader opens 2.3x – I flat (F me) and 3 others tag along. Flop comes 8-9-Q with a flush draw. Check, Check (idiot) check check. Turn 3. Check, check. Dude bets 1/3 pot. Fold fold, I call. River 5. Check he again bets 1/3 pot. I call and he shows 33. You POS. Hope you break your legs.

So now we have ~45k or so, blinds 1500/3000 and we get AJ in the SB. Folds around. I jam. BB snap calls with A7. Flop is nothing. Ignition shows me @ 77%. 77? SWEET! TURN 7! … RIVER 7! F*CKERS.
Bust that ****show and am super raging. However when all of that was going on, ran $220 into $2800 playing PLO lol. Ended night with ~3100 in the account.

Cliffs – left work early to drive 5+ hours to enter a stupid tournament with like 25bb.
-life tilt ensues as I fire multiple bullets, getting it in ahead as I always do and bust
-pay for a hotel room to stay the night to enter the 150k tourney next day, only to bust end of night and have to drive now 4+hrs home in the wee hours of the night
-lose 2k playing on my phone while driving
-Get it all back playing PPPoker and Ignition the following week
-Continue to demonstrate why I am the best player in the North East

Once won $500 on a $20 scratch off. My girlfriend's mom(who was really low on cash) begged me to use it to buy more lotto tickets, so I could win more and let her borrow what she needed(like 2k). I was dumb and told her to cash it and she could buy $50 in lotto tickets and keep whatever she won. She ended up buying $500 worth of $5 and $10 tickets and we only won about $200 from that. Then she wanted to keep that $200 and threw a fit when I wouldn't give it to her. She thought she earned it because she helped scratch the tickets.

One time i was in an airport and started betting on flights with a Texas cattleman I just met. I was down a **** ton of money until i went double or nothing on Ithaca and had David Berkowitz's mail bag down as collateral. I won, but dude realized my buddy stalled the flight and took off. I would've made like 4 grand. What a bummer.
