Ultimate Money Management System
Set aside a certain account exclusively for wagering....
In creating the ideal money management system, it became rather obvious that it would have to have a safeguard for the Wal-Mart bettors, but at the same time, not hamper the bettor who is more comfortable making two or three bets per day by having them wager too little on each game to reach maximum profits.

We will use 4% of our bankroll as our base figure, but then subtract .1% from our bet size for every additional wager we make after our first bet of the day. (If we wager on just one game for the day, our bet size will be 4% of our bankroll.) For example, if we are going to make five bets for the day, our bet size would be 3.6% of our bankroll (4% - .4%) and if we are going to make 11 bets on the day our wagers would become 3% of our bankroll on each play (4% - 1%).

It’s important to stress when using this method all of our wagers for the day will be the same size, as we only recalculate our wagering amount once per day. Using a calculator, this can be done in a matter of seconds, so that we can spend more time handicapping games or shopping for the best lines.

What we are essentially doing is using the half-Kelly method, but adding an element that takes the number of games bet into consideration.

Those who have access to an online sports book will have no problem following the method exactly as described, as online books are just as willing to accept a bet for $106.45 as they are to accept a $110 wager, while those using private bookies are likely to have to make some minor adjustments to their bet size so that it is an even amount.
Using this money management method doesn’t assure a sports bettor of huge riches, but it is the first step in having a profitable season.

Thanks man. I appreciate it!!!

Lousivile is a dark horse to win it all this year. I think Louisville covers at home

**dugdogg** · 12-02-11, 11:15 PM

louisville is not even gonna win at home let alone cover

**allidoiswin89** · 12-02-11, 11:30 PM

**thebigd1** · 12-02-11, 11:35 PM

Mad props to John Jenkins. One of the best shooters in CBB right now.

**10mDive08** · 12-03-11, 12:23 AM

I would def not give "mad props" to Jenkins. Yes he hit 3s but will that last the whole season? I'll ALL IN with vandy but I don't understand our offense

It's all good Buck. You capped the games well. Both teams missed the cover by around 2 points. You can't help that. We'll get them tomorrow.

**TheAntFather** · 12-03-11, 03:35 AM

Well, today I mean.

9 buckets from the field and 5 threes AND first 5 pts in OT?? I'm pretty sure he proved that he is no fluke last season. Hey, he paid me and a lot of us today, like I said, mad props.

GL today Buck.

**PacerBoy31** · 12-03-11, 10:21 AM

I too xavier -5.5; which you'll need them to really be up by 6 to win; instead of 4. That seems like a big difference. Let's hope it's a non issue.
