i see you're not using heaven's gate. what's your money management style this time around?

$175 flat bet. 4 betting seasons throughout the year. At the end of each one, I will cash out half of any profits and roll everything else over to the new season.

Heaven's Gate is so aggressive that it wasn't sustainable at the level I want to play at (long term). It has enormous reward potential (as it did for me on two occassions where I won more than $10K) but on 10 other occassions it wiped out half my bankroll in less than a week. Which then caused me to go "all-in" where I lost those plays more times than I won them. I can handicap, now it's time for my bankroll management to catch up with my handicapping./

Nice. That's really the only way to do it. I always go back to that kind of a style after I try to get cute. Good luck to you man.
