Ouch.

I understand betting on LeGirth, but not when he’s stuck with all the Slim Jims he currently plays with.

Tpols please confirm you are in a safe place and feeling mentally stable after such a monumental mistake.

Rent money down the drain. Sports betting is for fools.

He's like the dude who wants to see a team lose so bad that he bets on them to win so he won't be suicidal if they do in fact win.

I took a big L last night. My account is back at 1100 dollars.

It really looked like the Lakers were gonna win in the 2nd quarter. They had more juice. Lebron really let me down with that awful 4th quarter just bricking 3 after 3. And Murray splashing in his face.

It doesn't really matter though... my initial 600 dollar fanduel investment is less than 1% of my money. I bet for the thrill mostly.

I can make it back in LA hopefully. The only concern is does Lebron have the gas to last a full game. He needs an injection or something.

To a degree.

I like putting little bets on games. My buddy and I put $20 on every Lakers/Warriors game and $50 on game 6. The most I've ever done was $150 on this last SuperBowl (took the Chiefs).

But yea once you start getting into the hundreds and thousands it can become a problem. The system is literally set up for it to be a coin flip.

That's what happens to me. I oscillate up and down. Might just cash out at a profit at this point. If I were to add up the time I have looking shit up and divide it by 500 dollar profit I'd be making less per hour than a slave in a Nike factory. I have a full time WFH job where I make more in 2 days than I've made in 2 years sports gambling, and yet I seem to care more about the latter than the former sometimes. Which is stupid.

It's not if you enjoy it more than your daily job. Even if you lose some money (and you can afford it) it's not stupid. What good is money for after your basic needs are covered if you don't enjoy what you are doing?
To a (huge) degree posting on message boards or just watching a game is 'stupid' because you could 'work' instead. So we are all stupid in that regard. I don't even know how much I would've earned in the last 30 years had I been 'working' instead of following the NBA, but it's a large sum. I still don't feel stupid. Or if I do not because of this.

I don't gamble. If I was a gambler, I'd have favored the Lakers last night, but.....


It's never smart to put your money on LeShrivel.

Hachi is a stud. Dlo is a stud. Ofc ad. They are a lot better, but they are a small team and they need some way to neutralize jokic. If he is hitting, dude is out there like 7 ft Larry.

You can’t let him post ad. U can roam ad and put hachi top but he has passing and driving angles. All he has to do is get by dude and force ad to help.

Shoot, zone defense era. They should just put two guys on him straight off.

If he doesn’t get injured or foul out, it’s gonna be tough unless dudes just go ice cold. They should put Bron on jokic. Dude would take damage but honestly he’s a pf now anyway and he’s probably the most built to defend him in all positions. Banging v lebron is gonna affect you. If Bron and jokic cancel each other out, lakers can win. Can’t have him doing 30 20 10s tho ha.

Check my picks. U should have cashed on Bos v Mia g1. They notorious sellers even tho I think Dude is legit gonna get fired If they can’t bear Mia In a 7 gm series.

Always pm me before betting.

Thanks bro.

I did bet on Miami in Game1 btw. But pusssied out in the 2nd quarter when Boston looked unbeatable. (to me)

Woke up thinking it'd be a Celtic blowout and saw Miami had a 46 point 3rd quarter and won the game.

I know patterns, but there are way more variables to ever 'know,' it's just a fun game. I don't bet money, tho, but it's fun to predict. haha, Like University of Illinois basketball, Cs are always underperforming in playoffs, but yea, I just dunno about their team. THEY CAN STILL WIN THE SERIES, but wow. If James Harden was replaced by some B lvl guard on 76ers, they prol would have lost that already.

Marcus Smart is hitting 3s at a rate I've never seen him hit at. The problem is the head of the snake, mainly Tatum. Brown and Tatum... still dono why they didn't trade one. Prol cuz they wanna keep Brown and can't get value for Tatum. NEVER TRUST DOOKIES.

My hottest take is that Cs take the series. haha. I wonder what kinda odds there are on that.

I've made my money back.

Felt like I got robbed on that Derrick white Game 6 bucket, so when I saw Tatum get hobbled, Celtics ice cold from 3, and Miami with the lead I threw down some money in the 1st half when the odds were still even on Miami and it paid off.
