Samuraifan's Picks $10 Bank roll

[Samuraifan]

I have been following and tailing a number of cappers throughout my stay on SBRforum, thought it was about time I posted a running thread with my picks. Also I wanted to see how far a small $10 bank roll can take me, in the past I have gotten to $100 a few times but want to see if I can reach that elusive 4 digits *fingers crossed*. Will mainly stick with MLB although I may post picks from other sports on this thread also. Hopefully creating this thread will keep me honest and stop me squander my entire bankroll on all-in bets.

Book: Sportsbet

Starting Bank Roll: $10
Unit Size: 1 Unit = $1

where you bet that lets you bet a $1, a good week and you can get a happy meal

[Peregrine Stoop]

time would be better spent cooking happy meals

[bigsmitty]

Like the idea, good luck. Size of the wager is inconsequential since the end result is what matters. Cheers

I bet at Sportsbet, been a while since I got a happy meal. . . wouldn't mind getting one of those toys

time would be better spent cooking happy meals

It's all about learning mate. Once I get the hang of it, lets go turning $1,000 into $100,000 (perhaps I am reaching a little here lol)

If it's all about learning id stick to the sbr book or the spreadsheet. All you're gonna do playing with 10 bucks is end up betting much too high a percentage of your bankroll, which is already happening. BOL nonetheless.

Thanks mate, I am loving the support

You know what, if I make my bankroll big enough I shall do that

This is a concern I had when I placed my first bet, before then I didn't actually give it much thought. Once I build up my bankroll a little more I will make some rules that I will abide by focusing on my betting percentage for each wager, till then I will just focus on getting that bankroll a bit larger. Hope that makes sense.

GL with the grinding. You're doing good so far, keep it up

[chilecolorado]

Worth keeping an eye on here...GL with your picks and I hope you make it to 4-digits.

Good advice given on the units per bet, but I see your point about building up the roll...probably better to play it safe and build up steadily rather than swinging for the fences, but it's your show.

Great to be hearing that from you, your a brilliant capper. Thanks mate.

I hope so too. At the moment I am trying to play it safe and build up that bankroll at the same time - just a little difficult with such a small bankroll. Hopefully in a couple weeks that will change

Very very bad day. Seem like I still need to work on my unit management which really is hard considering the bankroll I am running with. Too focused on that increasing bankroll. I shall try to turn it around with my the MLB picks today. Stay tuned, its not over yet!

Arizona Diamondbacks At Detroit Tigers* | Run Line: Tiger -1.5 | 2 Units to win 2.5

Today is the day to turn it all around.

Not too sure why but my book counted the Texas Rangers, 5-4, as a win even though I was on the runline. . . First time something like this has happened, see the attached image to see what im talking about. Nonetheless a win is a win right? If they want to give me free money I suppose I am not complaning.

Went 2-0 = +3.84 Units

Current Bankroll = 7.23 Units
Current Bankroll Record = 11-7-0 / 61.11%

Still slugging away, I might have some ANZ championship or NRL plays later on - just thinking it over at the moment
