Sħãlïq™ Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) N4S once said: "The best bet is the one you never took." Now I agree, it's true. Betting sucks. That's why this topic is about bets 'worse' than that never-taken one. Post your best bets here. Here are my best low-stake ones: http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/3344/bestbets.jpg And high stakes: http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/7982/histakes.jpg I'm still having trouble accepting the fact that I wagered 1,238 Euro(!!). And the money was NOT even mine! What was I thinking?! I guess I wasn't thinking at all. Thank God the Lakers won the Western Conf. Otherwise... I don't even wanna think about it. Shaliq's Note: The purpose of this topic is NOT to make you bet/gamble! DON'T DO IT! It's not as easy as it seems. I'm a sports expert, and I realize the risk. I repeat, this topic is not supposed to make you bet. Think responsibly. Edited February 10, 2010 by Shaliq 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 I barely ever bet/gamble because I hate losing. It's that simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sħãlïq™ Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 (edited) lol i remember when everyone thought u were gonna go to jail for betting someone else's money and then u didnt post for months But why? Everyone knew my bet was: the Lakers to win the Western Conf. title. After I won those €550, I missed a connection-flight to London and had to pay €375 to make up for it... <_< I didn't post for a few months 'cause I decided to stay in Brazil and try and get a job there. I was broke and still I thought I could start running things there. I failed just because I didn't know that you can't change a tourist visa within the country. I had to apply (visa) at the Brazilian embassy in my country. Edited February 11, 2010 by Shaliq 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Situation Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 The year St Joes went undefeated (Jameer and Delonte) I bet like 100-200 every game. By the end of the year I was up like 3k. I rode them all the way to the the Final 4 and I put all 3k on that game. They lost and didnt cover. Broke even though. hah never bet again other than the casinos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRV Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Every good bet I have ever made has failed me, I always win the cheap bets like $5 or $10. The second I go over $10 I get screwed over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Tzu Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 I always seem to get lucky when I bet with my mates on games, but we only bet on like $5. One of my friends still owes me around $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRV Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) Betting with my friends always sucks. If I win, I just let it slide if they don't pay me, since I never expect it. But if they win, they tell me every day that I owe them money. I never pay them though because they never pay me.
