Any degeneratess that bet sporting events constantly?

I did the NBA and only came up 20 bucks. THe playoffs killed me.

For other sports I usually trail other people on a handicapping forum. There is some good money to be earned by trailing.

I can't wait for next season. It was my first full season of betting and I learned a lot.

Now I know when to avoid certain games, when to bet against the public, skewered vegas lines, etc...

I am trying to quit, because unless you do your homework like the pros do, you will end up losing money. That 10% vig will get you eventually, so be careful.

Now, if there is a big game, ie. Super Bowl, NCAA championship, Bowls, etc etc., then I will still dabble in it.(I won $500 on UT over USC)(Lost $400 on SB) It is fun, but try to pace yourself, or you will get hurt.

I used to bet...but the sites made it so f'ing hard to withdrawl my money....it was like I had to fax my life story along with every card I ever owned and a sample of my blood/urine/stool.

you are betting with the wrong sites then.

use sportsbookreview.com to help you decide.

i personally use pinnaclesports.com , vipsports.com , and betcris.com

all great BOOKs with fast cashouts.

thats true.. thats why i use pinnacle sports book. only 5% vig.

However, it is beatable. It is an up and down game, but if you hit your big bets at a good % and go 50/50 with your small bets you are in good shape.

Money management is number 1 thing in sports betting.
