Describe the wide arrange of emotions you go through. To me, I remember the losses more than the wins. It is also more or a relief to cash a ticket than satisfying.

I however don't gamble for a living, just enjoy the rush when it all comes down to 1 kick, or 1 putt. I guess you can compare the feeling to having AQ and going up against a middle pair.

Gotta love it.. although too much of it will lead to drinking and drug problems, which also lead to relationship problems. I also will be superstitious if I go to espn.com and check the scores and im losing, I'll make sure to use yahoo the next time i check. Little things like that.

Im so use to it anymore that it all feels the same. All those things you say i have been there before except the drinking and drug problems. You ever have a lucky pen? Throw out one that keeps losing? Till this day i do what you do with the scoreboards. Sometimes when i go to a site i put up an envelope over the numbers and go inning to inning. How about that one friend that walks in the room and the whole game changes momentum? i use to have a guy who i labeled the Jinx and when he would stop by guys would actually get up and leave the room:mj07: :mj07: Poor guy didn't deserve that but he was a momentum changer:mj07: Calling up for scores from a lucky pay phone in the neighborhood?
