I play a $100 parlay (typically 3 to 8 teams) once every couple weeks. Haven't won one in forever.

Gambled for many years. As a regular recreation starting ~1983. I made my full-time living from betting, 2003-2011. I would not classify all of that betting strictly as gambling, but certainly I was gambling plenny.

But not no more.

holy crap that must get frustrating....i never win parlays so I never play them....but $100 parlays must feel stressful

what happens if you hit? you instantly start playing games for all these winnings or you wait another few weeks for another parlay?

Tough to answer without writing a novella.

Briefly: several money-making strategies dried up due to changes in international markets post-UIGEA. I was experiencing lesser earnings combined with lower confidence in the security of my offshore funds, while my cost-of-living was remaining constant (or increasing). Some personal stuff.

Adios.
