saw a lot of heavy losses already was just wondering....good luck

Yeah, my goal is to be at least $1000 or above at next year's Super Bowl. I'm not trying to get as much as I can, as I would normally gamble it all anyway. I have often just picked where the majority was or for the favorite. I'm not very good at gambling, obviously, that's why I don't do it with my real money. Gives me something to root for. I will also bet on the underdog if there's a great spread. Like 14+ points favorite in football will encourage me to take the under, especially in a bowl game.

I got $5,200 back after all that. Not bad. I was off on the Utes game, glad I didn't put all $5,670 on it like I was going to do.

How are y'all betting games? The only games I see were from Feb 4th.

Is there something I need to enable to get current games?

:yo:

Got it. Rather strange that the actual forum doesn't update, no?

It is a completely new software and Sportsbook than what we had before so has no ties to the SportsHoopla bookie forum from before. The only use for current forum here is for this thread and Request and Event thread.

I am a firm believer that there are some people who have that special mojo that allows them to do well in gambling, be it cards, roulette table, sports betting, etc. Thankfully, I learned early on that the mojo I mentioned previously is nowhere to be found in me. I suck at bettting, gambling and cards. Even my two little nephews beg me to bet with them during the football season, and I always tell them the same thing: Forget it. I don't like to lose money and if I bet with my Chargers, they are doomed to a very long afternoon on the gridiron.

Don't EVER play Texas No Hold Em with me...you'll lose your wallet, watch, jewelry and shirt.

THIS SITE needs a weekly game-o-poker online. vCash only of course.

Talk about degenerate. I went from $5670 to $5200 to 4680 something dollars. I'll gain some of the back and lose some of it too.

Dont feel too bad. I lost 1700 on the early soccer games, only to put it all on the line on MSU and their +8.5. Left at half seeing them down by 11 or so, figured it was over. Came back from my bball game to see they covered. Went on tilt a bit yesterday. ;)
