where to start?

.....I started the World Cup w/ almost 4K, I passed on the first day when I wanted bad to pull the trigger on Germany, just to get the feel of things. I guess that's when all the bad crap started, next I decide to make a parlay w/ no score in the 1st 15minutes Spain-Ukrain only for that to lose w/ a 13minute goal...I can't think off the top of my head what other plays I blew but I remember wanting to take Ronaldo no goal (-130ish) in his first game but passed again! Nonetheless I was down to a little over 2K, then yesterday again I passed on the Croatia-Japan under(talked my-self out of it) but wound up winning on Ronaldo not to score vs Australia, unfortunantly I talked my-self into playing it minimumly b/c I was in a little funk passing on winners: anyway I won that then wanted so bad again to play France-Japan under 1.5 1st half but passed again, of-course it went under, so me being pissed that I passed on so many winners I want to make up for it in live in-game(bad idea) amazingly I wait until just under 80th minute to pull the trigger on Korea-France under 1.5 risking 1000plus to win 8 something, I go to the garage after I make the play to pass the time for the final 10 minutes, I just wanted to make sure it was still 1-0 so I quickly turned on the TV and in the 81' I saw 1-1! Couldn't believe my eyes that I held on all second half till the 79 to finally play it and boom right after I do GOALLLLLLL! And I lose 1Kplus. So now I'm down to about 1K, I forgot to mention I played the Orioles-Mets(MetsRL) on Sat. which lost, so I was going to follow it up the next day w/ (MetsRL) but get the pattern I passed on it(was so close to pulling the trigger at 1K) but told myself to calm down and not chase! Of-course it wins, Mets kill the O's???Now for today...Like I said I'm down to 1K.....told myself last night I was going to play Togo-Swiss under 1.5 1st half to win $400, I woke up and decided to play the OVER 4.5 yellow cards instead!!! I figured this had less juice and was a stronger play b/c Togo likes to foul and Swiss had like 4 yellows them self vs France........easy win right????? Haha, not, the under 1.5 wins which I passed on, and the whole 1st half up until the 45' went yellow card-less, then 2 quick ones to start the 2nd half on Togo total 3 now, I'm thinking this one gonna pull through, but from minute 53' to minute 89' we didn't see 1 freaking yellow card, not one, then Swiss got their FIRST in the 90th the last of the game, total 4 yellow cards another loss ($600) this was the only game that went under 4.5 cards! ....At this point I'm just baffled at how I could pass on every winner but pick every loser, especially when I talk my self out of the winner b/c I want to keep it safe!!!!!! Now I'm down to $400 I tell my self play Saudi Arabia under 0.5 goals (basically them not to score) then I hear that it's a wet pitch and I read Ukraine will play 4-3-3, so I talk my-self out of it........................GUESS WHAT? The Arabs scored ZERO!!!!!!!! You guys pick up on the trend?????I'm not finished yet, so me being pissed I have to make up for it, so I play Tunisia not to score, my gut was telling me this was going to lose, but I said what the hell.... 8 freaking minutes in, guess what???????? GOAL TUNISIA!!!!!!!!! Almost like the Lord turned the Spanish goalkeeper into a retard on that bounce just b/c I played Tunisia not to score! I run before halftime to make a quick western union, lol, so I deposited 800, I see it's still Tunisia +200 live-in game, so I pull the trigger, not b/c I liked Tunisia over Spain, but I was desperate to win so decent amount back......I think finally I caught a break, then in the 70+' all hell broke loose, and that $ is gone!

Bankroll $0:nopityA:

You may not want to hear this, but it wasn't bad luck that wiped out your bankroll.

It was terrible money management.

You can probably pick up a book about this for about 25 bucks at gamblersbook.com.

The funny thing is I had the money management thing down.....I remember when I first started 4 years back I got off to a crazy start...I turned $250 into $2000 playing baseball moneylines hitting a bunch consecutivley, risking all each time! So then football starts and I stayed hot, $2000 turns to $4000, $4000 to $8000, it eventually got to $12000 at WSEX playing college football. I still remember to this day I asked for a withdrawal of $9000 check, they gave me some banking issue excuse, and told me to hold off for a couple of weeks.......they basically knew I was risking almost all my $ on each play and eventually I'd lose, so they purposley gave me that excuse IMHO; anyways so I lose like $6600 on Oklahoma Sooners (college football) Reggie McNeal freshman year when they upset them in Texas(A&M). Boom my first loss in forever, so I'm down $5K+ and I want to get some of that back so I play a game I had no business playing just b/c it was a night game and one of few on the board (Oregon State-UCLA) I think, OSU was pretty good and I figured the would win, and boom that loses, so I'm down to $2200ish, desperate I play Wizards(-1) @ Cavs when Jordan played for the Wiz.....it won so I'm back to 4K...........3 years passed and I would lose some win some and basically break even every year(not good) but I vowed never to risk the way I did when I blew that 12K. Then I go and do this....the thing is I play to make some real money, ideally I'd like to wager atleat 1K per play if given the bankroll, but w/ 3K you just can't do that...I'm more of a selective wagerer rather than 5 play card per day type person, so if I play more than one per day that probably means I'm chasing...which sucks b/c I play to get back most of what I lost. Another factor that doomed me was insufficiant funds....I had all $ in neteller, and none in moneybookers, when you deposit w/ one you have to withdraw w/ the same, some soccer books don't take neteller(interwetten,pointbet etc) so when I find a play I liked at the "moneybookers" sites I couldn't play them and just about all of them won (ex: USA Friendlies...Latvia not to score,Venezuela not to score) so mentally I'm thinking I lost just b/c I wasn't able to cash in on the wagers I couldn't play, that led to the CHASING, a lot of people chase their losses, LOL I was chasing my passes!

...I'm not starting back up until I have 5K in neteller and $5K in moneybookers, that way I'll never have to settle for a second teir wagers b/c I didn't have funds at the book, this also leaves money in your account to deposit on short notice(perfect example: I wanted to parlay Ukraine-Saudi 2nd half over 0.5 w/ Spain-Tunisia over 1 1/2game total, which of-course won, but I couldn't play it b/c all my money was in Pinnacle)

If you have a small bankroll and make a decent amount per year more power to ya....but I honestly believe "it takes money to make money" and if you want to really make money you can actually do something with, then you need that money to begin w/ anything less your probaly just gonna break even or make small cash, which kinda defeats the purpose.

Peace and GOOD LUCK to everybody.....

take a look at this, This is where the chasing began, remember I said I lost the no score Ukraine-Spain 1st 15minutes? well this book offers live 1st half lines and game lines, me being in a rush to get that money back and some, I mistakingly took Spain-Ukraine under 3 1/4 for the game assuming it was THE FIRST HALF!!!!!b/c they had two seperate lines posted! I think I won easily right only to check and see I wagered the wrong event, as you can see in the Saudi-Tunisia match I sampled the 1st half total and it clearly stated (1stHalf) but like an ass I accidently took the Under for the game In the spain match not 1st half! Look at the time of the wagers, all consecutivley I'm thinking I got me a steal LOL, they actually stole from me:icon_conf $900 dissapeared.... What an ass!

I am not here to make a living of betting...I do it for recreational fun...I work to hard to throw thousands away on a game that I have no control over. $50-$100 is fine

That's cool bro.....to each his own, me I'm in it for the plasma TV's, rims for my car, self-propelled lawn-mowers etc. LOL

Im with you on that one. I started with $100 and now im down to $15. For me it was trying for the upset like Ukraine +600 vs spain and other games like that. I also was 0-4 on over unders. Betting Brazil to win wont get you back bankroll.

This may be an assumption but Nylon how much do you know about soccer or think you know? I will admit internationally im not very sound but with club teams I did very well mostly betting on Reading and Celtic. But I doubt you know enough to bet 4 k on soccer. Mabye that is why you winin baseball. Mabye you shoudl stick to that.

Atleast you have 4 years to earn that money back till you can do it again.

KYsigep....I know soccer pretty good for someone living is the US(I was making money all season long in the EPL,French Ligue1, Scottish Prem etc), but again it's not me playing every loser, it's me passing every winner...sometimes when I have money split in 4-5 different sportsbooks it's hard to play my first play that I like and actually make a decent amount b/c of the lack of funds at that book, then I'll chase and play something w/ almost even juice which isn't as strong of a play like Tunisia not to score. This World Cup killed me, every other sport you don't really need 5 sportsbooks, but in soccer atleast for me you do.

I doubt I'll have to work for 4 years to get it, me and my brother will get 5- 10K on the board by late fall, I'll have to be extra cautious then b/c he'll kick my arse if I blow it.

Thx for your comments.

.....why be an ass? I guess I'll act on Instinct from now on, my Instincts are telling me what a f*ing retard you are....(see your quote below)

"True Sekrah, Reyna may not be the most important individual on the team and he may get injured a lot. But you know what? It's an 11 man team and every body counts. If you can't have a midfielder like Reyna go out because I guarentee you his backup sucks my left testicle."

Any f*ing retard that thinks Reyna is any good, MUST BE SUCKING HIS LEFT TESTICLE. :bigfinger
