    bankroll question
    they say you should bet 2 to 5 percent of your bankroll on a game


    but if you wanna bet 3 games starting at same time...

    and you have 1000 dollar bankroll....so what?????5 percent of 1000 is 50 dollar right????

    should i divided 50 dollar into 3 games or?????? 50 dollars on each games.?that's 150dollars...that's not 5 percent.....ofyourbankrolll that day..

    it's really percent of bankroll per play.

    I'd lean much more towards two percent. I went 5-10 on the nfl yesterday, my worst day in memory and I only lost 7% of my bankroll. But on normal weeks when your adding 5-10% to your bankroll, thats nice. It might not be as nice as doubling in a night, but it sure as shit beats blowing your whole roll.

      Personally i don't like to bet more than one game at a time, but if you want to bet more than one at the same time i would use a lower percentage of your bankroll on each game.
