As complex as this hedge bet you were touting for its value?

If you are embarrassed shoot me an insult and confirm that you've been exposed.
Thanks, I will be waiting for your insulting comments and name calling.

I have lost several thousand many times in a day.... never really was a moment to remember because I have done it so many times. I was in college in the 80's wagering 3-4 dimes per game... wild swings. I don't come from a family of money, and had just my own balls and a minimim wage job. I have run from organized guys, and they have run from me. That was a long time ago. I wager online exclusively for the last 15+ years
Biggest day of loss for me was by far daytrading. I started with 10k in my margin account. I was mostly shorting tech stocks in 2002 when they were falling like flies. But as some of you know, when you are shorting you can get in trouble quickly. I ran my account from 10k to 100k within a few months, it was too easy. I lost it all in a 48 hour period because I refused to cover.
I did take out at least 10k before I lost it all... but still that stung really badly.

4k in one single bet. Dropped 4k on Wozniacki to beat Ostapenko before their head to head became lopsided. Before this I had lost 1k. Also lost two total over and under bets in bball by 1 point each. First team failed to score 1 point with 32 seconds left so the game went under. Second game, I needed the team to score 8 or less points with a minute left and they ended up scoring 9 points to make it go over. Such signs are from god to tell me not to bet anymore.

Few years back I was at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi,Ms.
Started the night with $150K in cash and I played black jack for about two hours and got a nice little streak.
At the end of my play I had nearly $670K and when upstairs slept and woke up ate and hit the tables again.
Before you know it I had $30k in chips left lol.
The limit on the Roullett was $25k and I put it on Red and won and I went back upstairs.
I remember having a Delmonico at their steak house and told my self this is a $600k plate of steak lol.

The way I look at it, I haven't lost anything until I sell.
Between the lawsuits and mining on sacred land you have everything invested to loose
