this should be my signature Corto, because I did it 10 times - burned everything I earned for weeks and months - last time I did that was few days ago when I literally killed May, June and July with two bets with no cover.
what is most ironic - from those 10 times - 8 times it was bloody tennis... and now tell me what is a name of blindman who makes same mistakes 8 times?
well - all these situations remind me on cartoon with Bugs Bunny - and that Mississippi episode, when he gamble with that old guy with moustaches (and when he takes all his money) - and when the old guy asks Bugs "If I had four legs and screaming HEEE-HAAW - what would I be?" and Bugs said "YOU WOULD BE JACKASS".

at the end... that cigar which explodes in cartoons used to be my favorite thing ever. but literally - I see myself lighting that one whenever betting on tennis...

Were you betting on books that had different rules for tennis?
I did that once.
If so I find this helpful..........

Judging from your username am guessing djokovic has played significant role in your tennis fiasco :D (Just kidding)
Looks like there is more gamblers here then arbers,i too have a gambling background!
Couple of years ago rosol almost wiped my whole bankroll,i manage to dag myself from that hole only to bust again year later when djokovic lost that semifinal agains nadal!  I was in ruins...
Since then i never had a major loss and i stick to some rules that i set for myself!
I still gamble some times but only on props,hadn't had a loss almost 2 years!
Very nice to hear that you was able to recover mate , here's another saying "Doesn't count how many times you fall but how many times you are able to lift again"

I've done similar many times, when your a gambler who discovers arbing then it is so easy (and foolish) to revert
to your old ways, especially when trading and live arbing are a form of gambling, chasing losses from arbing  by
gambling is almost natural for a gambler and of course madness, any arbing losses no matter what will always
be retrieved by future arbing but impatience or greed or both or even ego causes the gambler to seek a quick fix.

the best arbers, don't chase losses by gambling, there is absolutely no need for gambling when you're an arber,
this is something all arbers who gamble will be well aware of but struggle to control

Arbing is not dying.
It's more difficult, but still has plenty of life.
Stay focused and never give up!

You're right about what you said, but I also did not contradict me.
Everyday I lose hope, and yes... because I've found a way to survive a while longer my way of thinking and face sports arbitrage changed too.
But fuck it, I don't want to let this go. I could say that while I don't want this have an end it will have to necessarily have an end, however it's also logical that despite all the difficulties, there will always be someone who will be able to overcome them, therefore, technically arbing will never die.
But of course this also is not within everyone's reach.
Stay focused and never give up!
