Quite a story I've got

Started gambling just 9 months ago. What was intended to be a recreational hobby to make games worth watching eventually turned into a powerful addiction. I went on an incredible streak in the nba and cbb (something I knew absolutely nothing of) and turned my initial deposit from $100 to thousands mainly due to parlays within my first 2 months of gambling.

I distinctly remember myself going 9-0 in one of those NFL playoff competitions at [url="http://www.sportsbookreview.com"]SBR[/url] which coincided with my bankroll skyrocketing to around 11k thanks to my terrible management skills. Along came Superbowl, a spectacle...

yea, i really need to take a break. I've aged a few years over the past week.

Decided to play long-shot parlays today. Hit all of the legs but one, those single losses just happened to be bad beats. Please Jesus, I can take 50 point losses that are over at HT, but why oh why do you get me excited then bitch slap me with a bad beat?

#1: Dirk hits a buzzer beater to send the game into overtime :banghead:
#2: All the legs won and it comes down to Colorado St. with a 8 pt lead in the 2nd...

Is this normal? I have been anally raped so many times and I just don't think I can continue with this shit. I can handle losses but to be continually owned when in dominant positions when the game is virtually over ... man, I've never felt this low in my entire life. :surrender:

In all seriousness, am I the unluckiest person alive?

12/11/09 NBL: [B]Adelaide 36ers -2 over NZ Breakers.[/B]
Up 76-62 during the last Q. 16 point lead and they BLOW IT. 30-7 run to NZ in less than a Quarter and I fking lose!. WOW :banghead:

12/11/09 NCAAB: [B]Iowa St. -11 over...[/B]

I'd probably keep it simple as it's only going to be for two weeks.
