Usually a $200 per game bettor. Been chasing past week on NBA, NFL and college football.

Down $10,000 over 5 days.

How do I recover? Or do I just quit? Is quitting possible?

Well at this point you are already in such a big hole..how would you win it all back? When is enoug ever enough ?


I would just quit if I were you ....

Happened to me a few weeks ago.....not for that much...but like 2,000..and normally betting 50-100 a game ..turned to 200-300 and seemed to be losing every single bet I placed...worst run ever...

Sucks.....but you'll just end up in a bigger hole if you keep betting

Take a few days off my man.  Set up a plan for yourself before you come back.  What you want to bet on, how much you are willing to wager each bet, what your limit is, etc.  When you're ready to come back, do your research, pick the games you feel the most confident in and DONT CHASE!! We've all been there, we'll get you back over the hump

Smartest post I've read on this site in quite some time.  I was going to mention the same thing.

Good luck

You obviously don't know what you're doing, so stop betting.
