    Now, i'm officially lost on how to proceed. It was suppose to take at least half a month to reach the goal but just 5 days i have done it. Not sure what will happen from now on.... Probably going to lay low for a bit.


    Also, i MIN game 2 total ever got back up to 8.0 in game to take the under on live bet.

    Looking back. the past month had been crazy. I went from 37-40 -30 on the 6th of August betting typically 50USD per play to 100-80 +1024 on the 21th which concluded my main project.
    Then 22th to 31 i went 21-7 +414.75 with typically 25USD per play and 25-18 +266.5 again with 25 USD per bet.

    overall 109- 65 (62.3%) over the period

    I know that my stake is already lower after the main project ended (to protect my profit obviously) but now i want to lowered it again, but i wonder if 15 USD per unit will worth the time and effort....

    Maybe withdraw, bank some profit, and reset your BR back to starting amount. Rather than reduce unit size.

    Most people around here would be thinking of increasing unit size at this point. How come you are all contrarian?

    Because, i know my expected ROI and currently i've been exceed by miles. I'm not as optimistic to think that my plays will keep performing that much better than expected. Besides, i'd a bad streak earlier in the season and i taught me to not getting over excited. Personally, i love winning but i hate losing much much more especially when that one lose took away 2-3 wins worth.

    Note: My ROI is estimated at around 5% but since i'm using MB i would be around 6-7%.

    You are the same as me, fear of losing my BR is greater than greed to win big.

    Unusual in gamblers it seems.

    Maybe we are not.

    From today, i will be monitoring another money management system base on Kelly Criteria. From past result on average i play around 7 game per day. ROI is estimated at 5-6% so my edge is 5.5%?? Based on Kelly Calculator i should bet 3.9% or My bBR per bet, being conservative i apply a factor of 0.7 to that so i will be 3% on each play.

    BR: 1000+313 = 1313
    3% or 1313 = 39.39 USD

    Let's see how it go.

    I'm not sure Kelly works based on your average historical advantage. You are supposed to size each bet based on the advantage you see in that action to enjoy the mathematical benefit.

    3% x 7 = 21% of BR in play every day too. Seems a highish number for someone who was talking about lowering stakes a few days back?

    First of all, thank for you advise.

    I'm not going to really implement it, just keeping a record separately that why i used the word monitoring. The actual amount i play will still be around 24 USD per play. I know, that you should size each bet individually but i've done that before earlier on this thread and it was not worked out so well, kelly seem to overestimate some play like +145 Dog with 45% chance of winning. Beside, my estimate is already of a lower bound (conservative).

    Also, i must admit that i do not know how to convert from ROI to edge and that might screw me up.

    Hopefully, they will star the NBA season since NBA is probably the only sport where i can accurately gauge my edge for ATS.
