    Bankroll and unit size question

    So im just a college kid and I want to bet recreationally on baseball this summer. I have $350 im about to deposit on an online sportsbook. I know to many of you this is a laughable bankroll size but im just trying to enjoy the season as baseball is my favorite sport and maybe make a little extra cash on that side. So my question is, with this being my starting bankroll, what should my unit size be and when should I increase the unit size? (if it at all). Also, what are the most the most recommended online sportsbooks? Thanks for you help guys I appreciate it. BOL.

    5d|mes / Heritage are what i'm using. 5 and 8 cent lines respectively. Heritage gives an 8% bonus for deposits of $300+ as I just deposited a few days ago.

    With regards to unit size, i keep my average bet to 1-2%. Bets range from 1-5% with only the best of the best upwards of 4%. You won't necessarily get rich doing this, but I was able to return 130% last year using this strategy. You also will have a harder time than usually betting this small amount. 1 bad run of 5-10 games (happens to everyone, especially if you bet dogs) betting 5-10% a game and you're basically broke.
