    $180 left in my account!!!
    Ok so I ran into a situation and I needed some cash so I cashed out most of the money I have in my account but left $180. For today I like Chicago -2 and Utah ML so I was thinking should I...
    A. Bet all of it on Chicago then if I win bet on Utah.
    B. Bet all of it on Utah.
    C. Bet half each on both.
    D. Only bet a little bit ($20-$40) and try to make that money last me through the playoffs.

    LOL. What do you guys think?

    EDIT: I unloaded half on Chi -2 and half on Chi o200. Lets see what I can turn this $180 into! This should either be very interesting or extremely aggrevating. Lol.

        Never go all in... Only bet 1/3 at the most. Grind your way back into the game. You can do it.

        Same if you go on long losing streaks. Don't go all in, lower your bet's and grind. Reduce the amount of games you bet. Reduce the juice. Be patient and look for solid plays.

        I once grinded $30 into over $2,000 in like 90 days. Stayed patient and hammered solid plays once I was rolling but never bet more than 1/3 my stash at a time.

          Even though I like Utah, Chicago Over and Chicago -2 are better bet's. Going against a superstar like Kobe can always come back to haunt you (See DWade tonight)

            Haha. Trust me I know this. Check out my avatar. Lol. I follow Kobe and the Lakers like the bible. I just felt like if Lakers win tonight then they will sweep the Jazz and I dont feel like that will happen. I do like Chi and the over and maybe even Chi team total over. What to do what to do...Lol.

                Hahaha. That is true. Well I didnt listen to you and unloaded my whole bankroll on two plays. Chi -2, o200. After watching the last four games between these two, I just cant ignore it. They play a very fast pace game. Faster than what Boston is used to but all they can do is to play it fast right back. Hopefully these two will hit and I can get on a little roll. Lets see what I can turn this $180 into!!! If I win these two plays I will start splitting my winnings into 3 plays.

                      Thanks Tarheel! And Kyleben I know about money management. I needed that money I pulled out for just a short period of time (maybe about a week at the most) so even if I lose this $180 it wont end my betting days, it will just delay it for a little while. Lol. Im just trying to see how far I can take it. Im taking a small risk to try to turn this small amount of money into a large bankroll. Thatd be nice to not have to reload that money I pulled you know? If I can get this up to around $500-$600 then I will start managing my money wisely. Unless you guys want me to keep betting my entire bankroll on 2-3 plays! LOL.

                          Looks like most books have Chi at -2.5 now and the total is already going up to 201 at some places.

                                        I agree with Mac here. Never bet it all on 1 game. After losing a large number, that's what people tend to do. Work it slow, play 3 bets tonight, maybe at $50 a piece. Take it from there..

                                        I turned $100 into 3,600 in the course of 2 weeks, although the Hawks really dropped that number last night

                                          If you're only betting $50 or so a game than this is recreational betting. So I say go for it! Enjoy the rush, hope you hit. Gl

                                                Wow Chicago has to be the play here according to line movement. Its almost a split between the public and the line has moved from -1.5 to -3.5.

                                                      Never go ALL IN... It's a curse. The over is toast as well unless Boston can score 125 points, which aint happening.
