ive noticed this each time i place bets on games i feel i dont wanna grind till the games are done and i know if ive won or lost, when i win i play kinda bad coz ive boxed a sportsbet and start spewing, when i lose i play bad coz im down on money fro the day.
any advice what to do here? what do u sportsbetting guys usually do to balance the two? im having a real tough time doing both, any advice would help. thx
oh in b4 , "dont do sports betting"

Sweating the results of a sports bet is the same as sweating an all in with AK vs QQ or even AA vs 22. Once the play is made you're just sweating the action of an event you've estiamted the odds on already so simply enjoy it for the degen sweat it is or move on as you would with your poker.
I also work under an assumption that money is made with sportsbetting through shopping the lines/prices and finding arbs and soft/rogue lines so usually the majority of one's profit is already locked in before the games start anyway. If your perceived value on the bet is tied up in the actual outcome you may be doing it wrong in the first place.

so you play bad poker when you win @ sports bets and you play bad when you lose at it,
maybe you just... play bad?
or maybe the problem is something else, like your selfcontrol, etc and not really sportsbetting |

Meh. I'm a degen (and -EV) sports bettor myself so take my post from that perspective as I don't want to claim any expertise on the subject. I may be talking to myself more than I am the OP. |
