    +50%

    I decided to start my own thread. I like to bet on NBA, NFL, Boxing, NHL and so on. Most of my bets will be NBA with the season started now so I decided to put it here. I will post my play first because the game will be starting soon then I will explain what I'm trying to do.

    Miami Heat. -3.5 -108 $4.75 to win $4.40

    I plan on betting on a game at a time. Its way to easy to get carried away making a lot of bets and doing a lot of damage to an account. I loaded $10 (On October 26th) on my account and played some games going 3-1. I'm looking for one game I like a day. If I don't find one I will sit on the sidelines. Or at least try to.

    The +50% is how I plan on playing. I will start with a bet and if I win I will replay that money plus 50% of the profit from the win. I will keep going till I decided to stop the bet, take profit from my account and starting a new run again. My bankroll will be higher at that point so I will have a higher starting point.

    Like I said I started with $10 and made a stating bet of $1.25. Here are the games.

    Edmonton Oilers vs Calgary Flames for Game. -187 1.25 0.67Portland Trail Blazers (-1.5) vs Los Angeles Clippers for Game. -127 1.56 1.23Phoenix Coyotes vs Detroit Red Wings (-1) for Game. +103 2.18 -2.18Phoenix Suns vs Utah Jazz for Game. +275 2.00 5.50

    After the lost with Detroit I had to start again. My account was just below the $10.00 I started with. For the 4th game I started at $2.00 and won. So thats where I came up with todays starting bet of $4.75.

    I will make my first goal $500.

    The game is still playing but the bet is lost. That has to be my worst pick in over a month. I might check to see if I'm right on that. That didn't even come close.

    I'm looking at the Pats, they should be able to do it but they have been just squeaking by lately. I think I'm going to pass on that one.

    I'm looking over the Titans game right now.

    Bankroll=$12.21

    Yesterdays picks were scary. Titans made way to many mistakes. I made a big one picking them. Life goes on. I need to turn things around with some NBA tonight.

    Push

    I thought about buying a point but didn't do it. Its better then a loss. Sucks they had it covered but let it slip away.

    I failed bad on this one. I never thought they would keep it that close. If I even thought they would have kept it close I might have avoided the game or took a chance on the +2500+ that the money line was offering for the Timberwolves.

    Bankroll=$6.78

    New York Islanders vs Anaheim Ducks for Game. -137 2.00 1.46
    OT included.

    I want to take this game at -1.5 +208 but I need to get the bankroll back up so I won't take that chance.

    I was also going for Cleveland tonight which was at -2 but I didn't get my bet in before it closed.

    If that is 2 dollars and zero cents to win 1 dollar and 46 cents I would say take the -1.5 +208 if you "need to get the bankroll back up".
