$20 Bankroll Builder!

$20 Bankroll Builder!

Bankroll=$20
I have noticed a lot of bettors and cappers like to make up these threads to show how well they do with picks, but very few post how much they are actually playing on the picks. This is just a project with $20 in Bodog......I got the idea after seeing a couple other threads like this....I currently have 3 plays going on the early games today.....
$5 to win $4.35 - Rockies @ Marlins Under 7(-115)
$5 to win $2.91 - Reds(-172)
$2.40 to win $2 - Phillies @ Cardinals Under 7(-120)

My picks will be posted well in advance from now on...like I said, I just got the idea while looking at some threads. I'm no expert, but have had some success capping games and also some failures. Just thought this would be a way to challenge myself by sharing my picks and bankroll. Tonight's picks are....
$1 to win $1.25 - Royals+1.5(+125)
$3.56 to win $2 - Dodgers(-178)

I like the stratedgy good luck

alex81 · 07-22-10, 04:40 PM

I'm sure you'll probably do better than most of these "pros"

FUpv · 07-22-10, 06:28 PM

so you're wagering 25% of your $20 bankroll on each play eh? Yeah that's a good sound investment strategy!

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-23-10, 12:14 AM

Bankroll=$22.35
Finished the first day of the $20 Bankroll Builder with a 3-2 record. Not bad considering we made profit. I'm not sure if I will be posting in the Service Plays Forum from now on or not. If I move it will be to the Baseball Forum, but I like to pick all sports. I'll post tomorrow before the Cardinals @ Cubs game and then probably a few more before the evening games. Hope to keep the bankroll growing!

BetaB · 07-23-10, 01:39 AM

your you for real. one losing day and it will be impossible for you to come back up with 25% on each bets.

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-23-10, 10:47 AM

Bankroll=$22.35
Early picks for today is.....
$1.61 to win $1.15 Cardinals +1.5(-140)

I'll take a few more games for tonight, but will post them later. I like to see how well early picks do, before deciding what to wager.

drfunkmaster · 07-23-10, 11:17 AM

good luck.. cards ML is the bet!!!

mojomaker11 · 07-23-10, 11:22 AM

Good Luck. I also like the Cards.

SolidDala · 07-23-10, 01:10 PM

Well glad you lowered your % bet a LOT... 25% is -EV and will lose even at 75% winrate

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-23-10, 03:47 PM

$2.20 to win $2 Blue Jay @ Tigers Under 8.5

Full Time Hobo · 07-23-10, 06:56 PM

Good Luck. Seems like a fun project.
Wish you success

Dad · 07-23-10, 07:00 PM

I wish you luck mR. CapnGuru and I hope you win a lot of money. But I have a question...

When working with a small bankroll like this, at what time to you make a withdrawal and wouldn't the withdrawal fees eat up your profit?

Grosshhit · 07-23-10, 07:43 PM

christian okeye was the shit back in the day playing some tecmo super bowl!

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-23-10, 11:30 PM

Bankroll=$20.54

Not the best way to finish up day 2 of the Bankroll Builder, but I was a little disappointed about the Blue Jays @ Tigers game getting postponed till Sunday. I will be taking that same line if the same pitchers match up. I look to roll the dice a little bit tomorrow because the thread won't be real exciting with a bunch of $1 bets, but I do plan on trying to keep the bankroll growing! We went 1-2 today with a push along the way to bring the $20 Bankroll Builder record to 4-4. Plan on early picks tomorrow!

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-24-10, 10:44 AM

Bankroll Builder Day 3

Bankroll $20.54

Got a little aggressive on my early picks today like I said I would, but I need to make a dollar outta fifteen cents!....early picks are.....

$2.50 to win $3.00 Cardinals(+120)
$2.50 to win $2.63 Royals +1.5(+105)
$2.50 to win $2.60 White Sox(+104)
$2.50 to win $2.17 Phillies +1.5(-115)

MarlinsFan2212 · 07-24-10, 10:46 AM

If I had 20 dollars I would just put it all on the Rays or Yankees, and hope for a win. GL, I know I dont have the patience to do what your doing with only 20 dollars.

TonyP · 07-24-10, 10:50 AM

I would divide the bankroll up with a few games everyday untill the bankroll gows adn then be more selective on how much to play

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-24-10, 01:54 PM

$20 Bankroll Builder -Day 3

Added another pick for the Phils game.....

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-24-10, 11:57 PM

$20 Bankroll Builder -Day 3(Recap)

Bankroll=$38.50
Overall=10W-6L
MLB=8W-5L
WNBA=2W-1L
Parlay and IF bets= 1W-0L

Strong finish to Day 3 for the $20 Bankroll Builder. I said I was going to be aggressive and was, but I do realize that day's like this are far and few between. I actually wish I would have went bigger on the Blue Jays @ Tigers Under which I like the night before which was rained out, but did make up for it with a solid IF bet. Look forward to keeping the bankroll growing tomorrow!

GonzosDirtyTrail · 07-25-10, 12:29 AM

I like the avatar, Guru. Chiefs/Royals homer here.

drfunkmaster · 07-25-10, 01:49 AM

what is this IF bet

SprtsCapnGuru · 07-25-10, 09:32 AM

An IF bet placed by taking two picks you like.....IF the first bet wins, then the second bet is then placed.....IF the first bet loses, then the IF bet is over....you have to make sure when you place and IF bet though that you have to choose either "Action" or "Win Only"...."Action" means the second bet will be placed with a Push or Win on the first bet....."Win Only" means the second bet will only be place IF the first one wins! Hope this helped...it's more or less a conservative parlay.

BRAVES1985 · 07-25-10, 10:06 AM

good luck man!
