To be honest no one should care about how a complete stranger manages his money, but since there are six threads about me going on right now, I'll just say this:
On Oct 27, I posted a "lock" play on the Miami Hurricanes that caught alot of people's attention I guess.
At that time, my football record was 26-15 ... not phenomenal, but acceptable. It had been 23-11 as recently as Oct 21.
The Miami play lost, and since then I've gone 2-8 in the last six days (went 1-5 on Saturday). And now I have people saying that I should hang myself from a tree, PM's telling me that I need to send people money because they tailed me, etc..
Now, I know this going to come as a shock to some people, but sometimes you don't hit 70%. A bad week happens, sometimes two bad weeks happen in a row. Sometimes --GHASTLY-- three weeks in a row.
My current record is 28-23 and I'm up $300. This may be a "grind" season until NCAA hoops. Oh well! I don't let a bad week cause me to go slice my wrist , or go ALL-IN, or submit to idiots who think I need to leave the forum. I post here and do something that only a few people do: HONESTLY track my record daily, show people how I am thinking, manage my money for all to see, and hopefully provide some info that people haven't considered. THIS IS WHAT GAMBLING LOOKS LIKE. Sometimes it's ugly, it's not all roses and 10-game win streaks (although I've had several of those)
Last I checked, football season lasts for 22 weeks when you include the NFL playoffs. I am going to continue using the same strategies that have allowed me to have success for several season in a row, come what may.
In the very first post I made in my Heaven's Gate thread, I said that bad streaks will come and go, but sound bankroll management will carry you to the next win streak. I firmly believe in that, and it is why I continue doing what I do and I have weathered this storm still being up on the season.
For those of you who have "counted me out" and want to start piling on, or even fading me...go right ahead. But there's alot of games left, and I'm not a corpse yet. Until you see my bankroll at $0, you best not fight a machine.
