There is a lot of money to be made if you bet a lot of money. It's all relative.

If your bankroll is $100, and you bet $50 and lose, you would have to bet one half of your current bankroll two more times successfully to get to $112.5 and show a small profit.

Betting half your bankroll on a single outcome is just flirting with death.

This is true for the average gambler. I could lose all of my roll 3 times and it wouldn't bother me one bit. They would just get some of their money back at that point.
I could not win the type of money I do by not taking risk which most of the time I feel its free money when I bet half my roll!!!
Like I said I dont do it often but haven't lost in years when I do do it and I wish I had the balls to do it more often!!!
It would of worked last night AGAIN with georgetown 2H but I still won 20 Units on that game and I'm not really happy cause I was going to do 50units again!!!(too soon)
After hitting big on Duke and being up 94 units in 2 days I regret not betting the 50 units...
Its all about the confidence you have in a play!!!
I will never claim that I have proper money management which I feel is not the way to go about it anyways!!!
If you feel you should bet the same amount on every play then your not real confident in your stronger picks.
If I feel something wont lose then I will risk half my roll thats me and as long as it keeps working I will keep doing it!!!!
My roll does not change 50U is always the same amount!!!

damn I wish I couldve gotten the page to open before 2h bets were over on the cavs game! haha. I wouldve loved to go the other way and give you that warm fuzzy feeling I give you. I bet the cavs -4.5 for the game, and -3 2h.
