days of the week---card size help needed

[gwiz]

I have 2 days of the week I win

Monday and friday

this suggest to me that I do best when there is a limited choice


does anyone have any tricks or Tips I can use to somehow breakdown the bigger cards

I am turning the corner of playing as many games as possible to focusing in on the few best plays of the day

but for some reason the more choices there are in front of me the more I freeze up and make mistakes

stick to a limited number of games a day. say don't go more than 3. but remember you dont HAVE to play 3! that is just a maximum.

Just a heads up, you're about to get 15 pretty sharp posters in here telling you that it doesn't matter whether you bet 1 or 50 games, as long as they all have a positive expectation. And they'll all be right. You bet when you have an edge.

thanks for the response dodger

I play a lot of games early in the season because it helps me pay attention for the future

the issue I believe is not playing to many games as much as the more choices there are the less I am able to zero in

my eyes just go back and forth and eventually will be overwhelmed

I have read about focusing in on certain conferences so maybe I should focus on the coferences that play on these days

maybe I would be wise to spend the week studying for these days

that might take more discipline than I have

I'd only play about 3 games a day

take an index card and hold it up so you can only see 3-5 games at a time.

Yeah, and how are you supposed to know if you have an edge?

Yeah, and how are you supposed to know if you have an edge?

You're betting for one of two reasons:

1) Entertainment
2) You think you have an edge

[Peregrine Stoop]

perhaps you are spending more time analyzing/capping each individual game when there is a limited card?

You can be getting great odds on a loser with +EV, but it's still a loser

I do indeed have more time to devote to the plays and on the big days it gets to be to much work because I do not know how to narrow down my choices good enough

how do you narrow them down without comparing them all?

I guess this is my next step

does a reason to pay attention for future gains qualify as a solid reason ?

it is the excuse/reason I do it
