These all in threads are getting a little ridiculous, been so many of them the past week or so, I can only shake my head. I really think SBR needs to have a tutorial video on MM because even if you hit at above 90 percent you will still go bust if you have that all in mentality.
Good luck with the play.

you have to realize though an all in might be $50 to $100 for these people. Which is only a bet for some of you guys

I don't think some of them actually do it.

Minimum wager on some sights is $5. Maybe they are all in for five.

Good point and I understand that and its fine if you don't bet all year and are just throwing in a couple bucks into an account for the tourney and taking a shot, but if you are a full time bettor, MM applies to any sized bankroll. Regardless if you have a 10k bankroll or a $100 bankroll, MM should still be applied on a daily basis. As the bankroll builds you can slightly increase the percentage you use on a single play, but if you are going all in eventually you will go bust and never build it up.

oh yea I agree 100% man Im not a big better yet I been working on my roll like crazy. I wanna get to the point of where I can bet $110 a game to win $100 on a nigihtly basis. Im in the $25 to $50 range now and will create $5 parlays when i feel greedy lmfao. But also agree with the point that some of these people arnt cappers who track the season as close as we do. So there probably just betting a few games here and there . Im pretty tight with my money I try and cash out a little something every week or two just to have some relief

money management 101.....it is ALWAYS a bad idea to put your entire roll on one game. I dont give a damn how big or small your roll is.

You'll get it up there in no time buddy, you put in the needed work and are always on the look out with articles, angles, trends, etc. so you best prepare yourself for the play so if you keep this approach up, like I said you will get it up there in no time. About 10 years ago I started as a $50 bettor as well and before I knew it I was betting amounts I never thought I would (not a good thing because 1. I was ****in nuts, laying 10k on some games/matches and 2. I wasn't around the industry long enough to be betting these amounts). I can happily say I have only played over 1k on a single play on 3 occasions this year and feel good about an area I once lacked, MM. As you put it, you are pretty good with money and IMO, that is the most crucial element if you want to win in this game. I was not good with MM when I first started out and it took a few years before I just go sick of hitting at a good rate and still finding myself busted. Good luck.

Thanks dude much appreciated. Yea I used to be a machine at online poker and just got fed up with all the stress so much more stress in dam poker then in a basketball game lol. But I played poker for 6 years online and learned all my money management there. I decided to just quit for awhile and check out what sports betting was all about. I called it quits online at poker for a period now. I ended up only $5000 over a waste of my life. So decided it was time to check something else out

all in on Butler? I think they lose today. May get the cover but KState seems like they are on a mission and they will pull this one out for sure.

100% disagree. Did you watch Syracuse the other nite? What about St. Marys yesterday. When a team is "on a mission" they win when they are supposed to and they come damn close when they arent supposed to.

ROFLMAO. Just because a team gets blown out doesnt mean there not on a mission you fag. So your trying to tell me they flopped purposly. Just because a team gets blown out dosent mean they werent trying lol. Thats obnoxious to say. Your telling me that St.Marys and Syracuse didnt wanna win thats a complete joke to say. They just got out played and lost.

i went all in UK-WF, took UK ml -600...............i knew there was about a 5% chance UK lost that game so -600 was a good deal. it was over after about 5 game minutes, 10 real time minutes

going all in on a -110 is never a good idea........going all in on a ML when you predict a 17 pt win is good idea if you need the cash. sooner or later you will get the L, but i knew Wake Forest was hot garbage and they proved it
