Well going to take some major time off. Got 1 bet pending Colts-Pats over 28 1st 1/2 ....I just can't win. When I do I get taken by a book.... I think I might Take off until bowl games in Dec. I just can't pick a winner. Tired off sending money out and losing, also my bankroll is very small, so a few losses really kill me.. I might just bet 25 bucks a game just for some action, maybe I will have better luck betting small. I think the last 2 years with books going under and all just really killed me. Bet4aces really put a dent in me they took me for 3200. for a 100-200 player that was killer. I also am having doubts about my plays, no confidence in my picks. I have been betting for 10 years finally it has caught up to me...

Best of luck. After my 0-3-1 weekend I know how you feel. Taking time off is a good thing. We take time off at work right?

that's too bad, i mean the getting taken by books part. i've been lucky, about 10 years betting and have always been payed. never ripped off by a book....... knock on wood

Hate to hear about your bad experiences, but I hope you turn it around whenever you decide to jump back in JM.

Best of luck man, take some time off clear your head. Even if you win you still loose with these books stealing your money..get some rest

hey JM, don't just say it but DO IT! Listen, I was in a downward spiral like 3 or 4 weeks ago. I couldn't hit the side of a wall. 1/2 pt losses, pushes the works. I took 1 week off. no betting at all. i still kept up with trends and so forth but no 1 wager. Came back and ripped off a 9-1 week. Time off clears the webs, reasserts confidence and the most important thing it avoids CHASING MONEY. enjoy a week off, take out the wife or girlfriend, catch a movie or read a book. Trust me man it helps. best of luck to you my friend. P.S. i too was stiffed by a book for 2700.00 and it sucks.

JM good luck, bet small is a good idea. I will have a video later and just watch it and see how crazed I am and what gambling does.

I was not whispering

Sounded like your vocal chords were worn out from yelling at the TV on Sunday. I certainly thought the officials did a number on the Patriots. Almost like an NFL higher up told them to make sure the game didn't get out of hand.
