Absolute dollar amounts are meaningless, because if two guys each bet $500 per game, and the first guy has a bankroll of 5,000 and the second one has a bankroll of 25,000, then the first guy is on the road to ruin because he bet 10% of his roll while the second guy is showing sound money management.
Thus, the 2.5% is more meaningful because you could apply it to any size bankroll.

Read my signature. You see - units because most seasons are early. I had a bad MLB year again, but I could live off of what I made in CBB last season for a long time. LOL
And no, it is physically impossible to post everything I bet because of last minute prop plays and bets in minor markets that I don't post. For example, I have done very well in Dutch Soccer over the years.
Oh and from what I can tell, I am 8-0 in all posted plays the last 2 days here.
(3-0 Sunday, 5-0 Monday).

Why is that funny? I think you need a MINIMUM of 20K off shore to even have a chance to be successful It is very easy to do spread across many books, and having a lot of outs is also important for line shopping purposes.
