Can't win everynight, just have to win most nights...

Seriously though law of averages, we caught bad breaks and had a losing night, you still hit 40% on a bad night. A good night is 70%+. I think most everyone on here is willing to take the bad with good. I try not to beat myself up over every loss, but I'm never happy about it either.

the close losses stung more and more as they piled up..

I think I'm gonna drop the twitter and blog. Seems like a waste of time now.

Kinda had the same feeling. I think I originally liked the thought of being one of those twitter sharps that had thousands of followers, and maybe even some famous followers, like SVP. But I've realized there comes some bad with that as well, and that I'm happy just making myself and the solid group of posters who follow me here some money.

I havent tweeted in a few days, honestly.

I think you have potential to do that if you still want. You got the catchy name and bet something people like to bet on widely available lines. I guess I took 5dimes for granted; didn't realize non-1Q lines weren't available on the majority of books.

I snagged the twitter name @MrTotals a while back but have never used it since my full-game totals haven't performed

Good to know

Although if I run out of this money on 5D, I don't think I'd ever deposit online again. I spend way too much time capping.

I did the twitter thing my first year for college football thinking I'd wreck shop and people would praise me. Naive fricker I was
