I am getting sea sick...

I win a few and lose a few, win a few, lose a few, win a few, lose a few, up and down, up and down, up and down...

I wish I could break out and get a head and stay ahead. The only saving grace is I do not have to reload my account.

Man I soooooooooo want it to be baseball season. I was making money and the season had to end.

Is this the norm for gamblers, make a few, lose a few, make a few...???

First off, welcome.

Your question is very difficult to answer.

If you're wagering the same amount of money on every game then it's really hard to get ahead.
Not many people are able to make a living doing this. I sure as hell cannot. It's all about discipline and money management.

If you feel like you have to make a wager everyday then maybe you are in need of a little break.

Don't beat yourself up. It does nothing.

BOL!

there are certainly hot streaks and cold streaks. It's good to use a certain amount of bankroll for your picks and use some to tail hot bettors in this forum. That usually keeps the days in the green instead of the red.

count u'r blessings...

I was doing the same thing (just breaking even) f/ a number of weeks in a row earlier this yr. and I felt the same way u feel...Then I hit a major losing streak & then I longed f/ the days when i was just breaking even..I said when i started doing this 15 yrs. ago that if I could just break even that was good enough...It's really tough to consistently make money doing this..
