I am just curious, cuz i know i have done it before.

Have you ever placed small-time bets on like 15 games in 1 day??

About 6 years ago when I was doing this as a big time hobby. My cousin and I used to do between 15-20 NCAAF games on Saturday.

Yes, I know that is careless betting. I don't do it anymore, but i thought I see if anyone has or not....

Funny thing is, that's how I stopped betting 6 years ago and haven't done it since til this month...

I was betting 1K on each game, my cousin $500. We went 17-3 that day.
Great Day for the both of us.. unfortunely for my cousin, it didn't stop.

After making over 13K that day, i decided to stop placing wagers. I put the money towards good use.... I traded in my Chevy Malibu and got my s-10 pickup that I always wanted. Paid off some bills and then just enjoyed life and my g/f.

Anyways, my cousin decided to keep betting, so the next Saturday, he did the same thing, but with the new money that he had won, he used that plus the money he used for wagering and did $750 bets on all the games....
Unfortutenly for him, he went 3-15 that day.

He pretty much lost everything he had, and since that day, he learned a lesson on not being greedy and finding that that this is not a place to expect 100% winners and you can lose it all at a moments notice.

I told him that i started back up again and he frowned upon it and reminded me about that story.

Couple things have changed since then...
-I am now older (29), and more mature (don't ask the wife that though)
-I have more experience now on sports wagering.
-I now have what I call 'fun' money that if i lose it, it won't hurt as it would've back then.

My advice for anymore that wants to get started in this place of business would be
-Not to get greedy.
-Setup a system of only betting so much per game
-Never bet your whole bankroll
-If you get on a winning streak, don't expect it to always happen. nothing is 100%
- And most importantly, have fun. This can be a very lucrative hobby if you play smart, and not get greedy.

Great story. Money management and discipline are two of the most important things I've learned doing this in the short time I have invested in sportsbetting. I have a capper(for free) that I follow and ride the highs and lows while I learn to handicap the games myself.

You are crazy guys... if you want to have fun go and play some sports, watch movies, enjoy your hobbies, play casinos without real money or whatever but never take gambling with real money for having fun because it is a serious business it is no funny to lose money... and believe me you will lose money because the business is made by Bookmakers not by punters (no matter the experinece or sports knowledge)...
The only 100% risk free, 100% winning trades and 100% funny method is sports arbitrage not sports betting...
By the way, I´m an experienced arbs trader and this month I tested the Surebetpro software everybody is talking here and the only thing I can say is that it is ugly an expensive, try betbrain for getting more and better arbs and most important cheaper...
