Re: Worst Gambling loss against the spread in your life.
my very first sports betting disaster:
freshman year of college I was completely new to sports betting with a roll of ~$50. I randomly bet some 12 team parlay for ~$5 and left for the weekend for a frisbee tournament. When I came back, it turned out my first 11 teams had won, and all I needed was Sea -3.5 vs SF in the sunday night game. I now had $1700 riding on one game with a bankroll of 50! At the half, Sea led 17-0 and we left for the dining hall ecstatic. Somehow the niners came back and were only down 20-19, and seattle had the ball with a chance to just run out the clock. Instead of running out the clock, they handed the ball to shaun alexander, who broke 2 tackles- at this point I'm yelling go! go! go!. . .and was finally brought down at the 5.
game. over.
