I got on the only one you missed

Cheme82 · 03-24-11, 11:20 PM

Sorry to hear that mate, I was at work and I have been trying to post everyday because the plays have been hitting like crazy but sometimes I can't post them with enough time to get on them.

Tomorrow there are 13 games and it will be short notice on the firsr 8 but I should be able to post a little earlier on the last 5 games starting with Was/Den.

RAF is untouchable on clay

MrShrink · 03-25-11, 03:50 PM

very true, but not if he's unhealthy. few weeks between now and then. if he has recurring probs, it's djok's. at those odds, i'll throw down a scheckel and hope for a hammy.

Most of what I have been playing I have been posting here. As far as the Roland Garros future, Nole comes from the same bracket as Federer and he has a better record than him in Clay. Also the Spaniards are really tough in that surface and guys like Ferrer and Verdasco can easily take him out if he has to face them. Finally, barring an injury; if he makes it to the final he will probably have to beat Nadal and Rafa owns his (and everybody else's) ass in clay. No play for me.

I just noticed that one of my posts didn't go through. After the Wall and Gallinari post and before the Lamb post I posted (or thought I did):

NBA
Wall under 19.5 points -115 20
Gallinari over 16.5 points -110 20

The first 2 were from beteagle and these 2 were from Bodog but apparently the message didn't go through.

I will take off 2 wins and 40 units from my NBA record. Sorry for the mistake, I was posting from my phone and trying to hurry.

Cheme82 · 03-26-11, 12:11 AM

I received a couple of e-mails asking about unit size and bankroll management, I have posted on my threads how that works but I will do it again.

I start every sport with a separate bankroll that I divide into 100 "units". Each "unit" is 1% of my bankroll when I start the season. Most of my bets will be between 1% and 10% of my bankroll so in the beginning I play between 1 and 10 units.

As the bankroll changes the bets also change and this part is where people are getting confused. Tomorrow for example my NBA bankroll will be 463.35 units (that I have won so far) + 100 units (that I started with). So my total available bankroll contains 563.35 units. A 30 unit bet is just over 5% of my bankroll and NOT 30% of my money. I bet aggressively when I find an edge but if you are playing 30% of your roll on one bet on a daily basis it's just a matter of time before you go broke.

Today I had a total of 317.5 units in play (including juice), out of a total 493.85 units of bankroll. They were spread out between 13 bets (including the 2 that didn't get posted). So about 2/3's of my bankroll was at stake but the biggest bet I had today (Wall under 19.5 points) was for about 10% of my bankroll.

Risking such a big percentage of one's bankroll on any given day is dangerous because a bad day can really make a big dent on your bottom line but remember this is not the money I will use for MLB, this money is for this year's NBA only and that is why I am a little more aggressive than most people that know how to manage a bankroll.

If you have a unique bankroll that is used for all sports then I don't recommend risking more than 5% on any given bet so that you have staying power for all the sports.

Hopefully that clears it up.

dude_bg · 03-26-11, 12:45 AM

wow, you seem to be hitting nice on those bets. wish my bookie offered them

Cheme82 · 03-26-11, 12:53 AM

Locals usually don't offer props, but check with him on buying points, there are lots of ways to skin a cat.*

*This is just a figure of speech, I love animals and even though I prefer dogs I would never hurt a cat.

aussieH · 03-26-11, 02:58 AM

Hey Cheme. Wall and Gallinari were posted during the day. It is showing a few posts back. I am pretty certain I noticed it listed just ater the game had started but it had been posted priot to the game starting.

Add it back in for mine.

I had no luck following you today though. My books only play the props on the occassional game and the games they chose I played (Bogut & Stoudemaire)

Cheme82 · 03-26-11, 10:12 AM

Man that sucks that the ones you are jumping on are the losers, sorry about that.

As far as the Wall and Gallinari bets, I posted a 30 unit bet on Wall and a 10 unit bet on Gallinari that are on this thread. Then I checked lines at Bodog and I played the same 2 props for 20 units each (because of differences in juice), I thought I had posted those as well but last night I was double checking the posts and there is no additional post on those 2 props so that's why I took them off.

jolmscheid · 03-26-11, 10:51 AM

Way to go Cheme! Keep it all goin on!

if you're doing well and have confidence (and have started with a reasonably affordable bankroll for you), why not be aggressive?
