go big or go home is my motto....
i don't do this enough to care about money management honestly. i stick to what i know sport wise and i take risks that probably every day joe who would try and do this for a living wouldn't.
and honestly, there isn't a guy on this site who has any higher winning percentage on big plays than small ones. I think in the long run if you really are in this for the long run every game should be bet equal. But im not in it for the long run so i don't.....
i have to hand it to guys like boiler that can grind out a season by making 4000 plays a day on every sport and do it day in and day out (though it would have been nice if he could have put his computer down in Reno Saturday AM and watched some games in the book with me....
). i can't do it....i get tired of this after about 3 straight days of it.....that's usually when i load up on plays....lol. There really is something to be said though for guys like boiler who play the steady wins the race game. They are the most likely "group" of bettors to come out ahead to a degree in the end.
I guess in the end it depends on what you want out of gambling. I am pretty much done with it because it is pretty obvious that recreational gamblers pretty much piss in the wind. for every great season, you have a bad one. for every 5-0 +18 unit day you have a disaster. I don't have the time or desire to do this anymore (boiler says i don't have the stomach for it....not that....i really don't have the patience for it...lol).
I think the most important thing along with bankroll, though, that nobody mentions is having lots of "outs" to bet games. It's amazing how many games come down to half points and getting a good line is half the battle (actually it is the battle).
GL and welcome...
by the way i have a 6Unit hockey play going tomorrow which is 3x my normal play.....
......as i said, don't follow what i do....
