    bankroll builder question
    Hey everyone, just thought I would say some of my winning ways. I started with 45 dollars on Sportsbook.com In two days I built it to 195. I took yesterday boston plus 5 plus the over then the other day i had a lot of winners with the nfl

    my question is now do i start to bet harder that i have a little more cushion? or do i slowly walk my way up to a thousand

    go capone gradually...little by little..trust the variance..trust the money management...never bet more than %5 of your bankroll

        I used to play a ton of parlays.....lost thousands! stopped playing them and just played my plays....although a few too many plays I took 75% of my negative balance away. I am so close to being back in black! If you want to build your BR....do what brain said and only bet 5% of your roll per play....and play what plays you like. it takes longer to build but you wont go broke playing solid plays.

            Hey, capone, have you just started at sportsbook.com (I think it's sportsbook.ag now) or been there a long time? If you were there long time, did you receive a payout recently?

              Good advice... I usually play between 2% and 2.5% of my bankroll on any given play to start, and never go above 5% total. (I do a lot of Live Line and HT bets.) For a big game, I'll go 5%... with a maximum outlay of 7.5%.

              The above is for College and Pro football... For hoops, my maximum bet will be 2.5%.

                Are you referring to sportsbettingdotcom (that is now sportsbettingdotag)?

                If so, I received a five figure payout a couple of weeks ago.

                    My bad... I'm wondering if they're owned by the same company.

                      I'm not sure, but how long did it take to process your payout at sportsbetting.ag? My payout at sportsbook.ag which I requested on 11/17, is still pending.

                        Requested it... had the mandatory 3-day hold... had it a week later.

                        Just checked... they do have the same parent company, but they obviously are independent as far as the way they go about their business. I've been with sportsbettingdotcom for almost four years and have never had a problem.

                          it takes me about a week for payouts. i will not be doing a parlay tonight instead just going to put a 100 dollar bet on bulls money line. i know i know. that is too much, but i am having a party at my house tonight and just really want to root for the bulls while im drinking and watching. they should really win.
