From someone who has seen this same BS countless times working at a casino, don't place the bet.  You will surely regret it.  Just yesterday a very similar story walks over to my $50 blackjack table.  Kid drops 4k on the table and says "C'Mon Dustin I am in some shit here.  Lets make something happen."  That line I knew he was fucked.  And I was right.  55 minutes later, it was gone.  Kid calmly walks out, and I just shook my head.  2 hours later he is back with his GF (who you could tell had been crying) and he hands over another 1k that she let him borrow to chase his money.  I wanted to say no, but clearly I cant do that.  20 minutes later... POOF.  Gone.  Shittiest part about my job is watching that happen ALL the time.  95% of the time, it goes sour.  Dont be that guy who drags his GF into his mess.  Just take a month off, build up your bankroll, and get back to the grind.  There are 5 months left of baseball dude.  Just chill for a bit, and come back with a clear head.

Take my advice, or leave it.  Choice is yours.  But whats gonna happen if you win that 2k bet?  You will say "shit I got my money back, I can drop $500 on 4 games."  The way your "luck" is running, it will be a 1-3 day, and you will lose about $1200.  Just seriously take a step back dude.  Whatever you do, best of luck.

Eddings is the ump in the Reds game. Eddison tends to play under and has a lifetime strike rate above 63% which is pretty high.  

If your going to do something this dumb, then I will try to help you win

It was the f'ing numerous times a day I don't buy. Unless you just started dating like 2 days ago or you are both sex addicts. Whatever, not here to argue. I like the Reds ML personally, but that could be because I work in Cincinnati and love the Reds. Still think the Reds rebound today after the Golden Domer made them look stupid yesterday.

I wish you well, CG. Only advice I can give you is this: You didn't get in this hole in one day. Subsequently you can't realistically get it all back in one day. Money management is paramount. I know this is something you already know, so good luck.

I quote this post in the hopes that you read it again, a little slower this time.  If you are truly in a tight spot, pressing things up is a very bad idea the VAST majority of the time.  As an educated gambler, look at it from a percentage standpoint and you have to agree that DJM's arguement holds a lot of water..

Either way, best of luck today, in any future plays, or even if you do the prudent thing and take a break.

Please take Reds ML because I am all over Chicago today with the good value of Dempster pitching well and his arm rested. Also, Arroyo is not this good. He is close to being lit up.

Christ... this is the most idiotic thing I have read on this site.  I tried to help you, and then you do this.  I hope you fucking lose your money.  Only way you will learn.

for what its worth im down to the end of my gambling career too if i dont hit my last 2 parlays..and i know parlays arent the way to go but i need to make back 17500 by sunday and got 150 to play with with my local...

reason im down 1750? same reason you claim to be...bad beats...

i dont lose regularly it seems..only in the sickening of ways...

Lastnight i would have bailed myself out with an 800 parlay..if phillies won.. up 6-0 with doc on mound safe right? nope..

go down 8-6...go up 12-8 in 8th... bottom of 8th go down 13-12....tie it on infield hit with 2 outs in 9th.. to lose in extras... was very hard to swallow.. i been on numerous bad beats for 2 weeks it keeps overloading.. and im just trying to limit my damage at this point

My 2 parlays are...

Phils, reds, mariners +1.5

and nyy ml nyy over 9 and knicks ML

if neither hit im down 1900 and im finishes with only lakers future bet to win west as my only action...

Good luck to you and hopefully one of my parlays hit to keep me alive for the week...

No, you said you were emptying your bank account on a team you think is going to lose the game.  How fuckin stupid does that sound.

I don't think I'd ever risk most of my bankroll on Homer Bailey.

Bailey is decent. Sorry about having the wrong pitcher. I am just saying if you are going to bet your whole load then wait for a great pitcher on the road so the value is decent.
