Basically, I lost a grand in the past week. I'm thinking about betting 600 on Miami tomorrow to get back some of my losses. All of the losses so far have been from the poker room or blackjack. I need to get some of the money back so I feel like I don't have a choice in the matter. I've never been down this much before in my life and it's not a good feeling.

I just can't accept losing $1,000. I feel like I can't walk away. It's really hard for me.

Whatever you do, don't bet on the Dolphins. There are all sorts of question marks right now.
If anything, bet against your team in small amounts. If they win, you're happy. If they lose, you have a consolation prize.MikeHoncho and Merauder like this. -

I think if I lost this bet than I would be able to walk away for good. I probably won't make the bet now but I am still considering it.

This is how Ive felt many many times, but what I learned was chasing was a sure fire way to go broke. I remember being 21 years old and in the middle of the biggest losing streak of my life.....I bet $1900 (what I was down) on a Northwestern/Minnesotta CBB game, and the miracle came through. Had I lost I wouldve caught a serious beat down or maybe even death.... But the whole game I kept wondering how the f--- did it get to that point.
I dont suggest it but then again Ive been there and I know how you feel....
But even though Miami is better than Buffalo thats not always how the cookie crumbles on the road in the NFL.
If your going to do it......and likey you will, lets see if we can find you a bit better of an option. -
This is easy. If you have kids to feed then walk away. If you dont then go ahead and bet all ur money.

Thanks for the advice everybody. I'm still deciding on whether I'm going to bet or not. Leaning towards not.

I was going to bet, but then bodog wouldn't take my card for some reason. I tried using my debit card instead of credit card. FML
I would have been sweating my *** off the entire game though....lol -
I was thinking about you watching them punt. That would have been a horrible game for you to watch if you would have bet. :lol: -

gambling scares the crap out of me
