Actually I won that first bet. The score was 3-3 after 5 and I had under 6.5. Dallas looks real good, and I even hit my two small props. I should be sitting at just over $17.5K in another half an hour.
I agree with everyone about taking some off the table, but as I said, I have another week before I can withdraw anything as I am waiting for my $500 e-check to clear. When it does, I will absolutely take a chunk off the table. Until then, I am hoping to get the figure as high as possible. If I do lose a big one, I will back off considerably.
I have a figure in my mind each day that I won't fall below as I go for it. I WILL walk away with something, at least $2K before today, and after tonight, probably closer to $5K-$7K. I know that's a big number to fall from, but hell, I'm having a ball.
The funny thing is that my very first bet, a two teamer that included Miami +6, won at the last second and was extremely lucky to hit. If not for that, nothing else would have followed.
Here's to tomorrow.
11-2 on the day, so I am feeling good.

Do you suggest I stop playing until I can W/D some or should I just slow down? With the run I am on, I have been seeing the plays very well and want to take every advantage of that until I begin to cool off. I WILL take some off next week, but until then, I want to push until I lose a big one. Is that a bad play?
Bromo -- congrats on your recent wins. If I were you, I would back off a little, b/c as quick as you built this bankroll, it can be lost... believe me, I have been there as well.
Regarding Pinnacle, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Last football season, I requested several payouts in excess of $20K, and never had a problem.

Wow, I won $1500 today and its the best day a a long while. This Cat is Gambling and doing it well. Even Sharp gamblers get the screws sometimes. My advice: evaluate your bankroll (henceforth called BR). What the amaout of money your have offshore means to you. Set a low limit cash out , and quit upping the addreniline rush. Relax, you can finance a pool with what you won. But you remind me of a younger me and you want be happy.
The best thing to do is to play both sides of an NBA series bet and blow the juice...maybe 5K each. It should coincide with your funds coming available. E-Checks are very dangerous because if you get up early you can't get the money out, and a nightmare crash and burn could be coming. Play both sides of an NBA bet for next week...consider it insurance against the worst case scenario. Take a shot with the rest.
