I have a knack for guessing correctly the outcome of boxing matches. Im in really desperate financial situation right now and i have the urge to bet as im pretty sure i can win big. For example im pretty sure Pacquiao beats Cotto by KO.

What should i do i cant get this voice out of my head tellin me to gamble.
 
According to Islam, in gambling is great sin and some profit for men, but the sin is greater than the profit (Quran 2:219). Gambling is the key of enmity and hatred between people (problems in relationships, huge debts etc) and may hinder us (due to addiction) from the remembrance of God and from prayer (Quran 5:91).

About the voices in your head:

"If a suggestion from Satan assail thy (mind), seek refuge with God; for He heareth and knoweth (all things)."

(Quran 7:200)
