    Sanity Check's Aspiring $20 Bankroll to $200 Thread (10 x ROI)

    I've often said starting out with a bankroll of $20. Trying to turn that $20 into $200 for a 10x gain is the best method to learn to cap games. Its something I've done successfully a number of times, over the years.

    Its great if a person can learn to not be a slave to money in the process. Greed impairing judgement and decisions, being one of the greatest causes of failure in the cap gamez.

    Always wanted to post a record of an attempt publicly but didn't want anyone tailing me, win or lose.

    Found a way to confirm my plays without posting them in advance.

    Taking a shot.


    Points Awarded:

    +$15 Deiveson @ 1.43.

    If this fails I'm getting smoked in embarrassing fashion.

    1st event, unimpressive result of around 10% gain on bankroll.

    edit

    Plays were


    -Hermansson
    -Pantoja
    -Figueiredo

    Starting out with 20 bet points.

    Going to try to turn that into 200.

    Cuz geek stuff.

    Is it ok if I void this result.

    You can see on social media & elsewhere.

    Almost everyone agrees it was a robbery.

    I was on Claxton and thought he did enough to win R2/R3.

    I'm changing the format on this & restarting next week.

    Capping from 20 bet points is too restrictive with the 5 bet point minimum.

    4-1

    +20%

    Took a break. Finally getting back to it.


    Usually I'm more aggressive and go bigger. But things have been so weird with so many judging robberies and questionable calls in MMA. I don't know if I can get away with that anymore.


    Bankroll of 20 bet points is too restrictive. Have to go 200 to 2k.

    All in on Trump.

    We ride together, we die together.

    No sharp angle, no inside info. Straight up gamble, toss of the dice.

    Didn't think my Trump bet would be tied up this long.

    Used 100 point free play.

    My two (?) losses were emotion rather than logic based calls. I bet against Israel Adesanya only because he supported #BLM. I bet against Biden for similar emotional reasons.

    I would guess most gamblers could say the same.

    Most probably aren't willing to question their motives that far to up their game. That could be the only real difference between someone 11 -2 and another who is 2 - 11.

    12-1

    Playing this as if I got wiped out with the Trump all in(not counting as win or loss until results official).

    And had to start over with 200 on the play after that.


    Still aiming for 2,000 betpoints on 10x return on investment.

    Why are you posting after the event is over?

    Not trying to antagonize at all, just think it diminishes your credibility a bit to wait until after an event is over to post a winner and then claim a very high winning rate.

    Hopefully food for thought. Best of luck.

    SBR can validate it.

    Anytime.

    Its close to my normal win rate btw.

    I had winning streaks in the past that were like 23-3.

    10 times return on investment is ok. But my best was around 30 times ROI before I hit a wall. Betting with real money.

    I have problems I can't solve with money or by winning bets. So its not as cool to me as some might think.
