    Alright lets clear something up ....

    I read threads where guys are posting I have 2 units or 1 unit or 3 or 4 or whatever on this bet and so on.I would like to know what your unit represents.
    I think it would also help other posters so we can see where you really stand and how strong of a bet that is for you.


    My unit is $100.

    1 unit = 1 unit
    $100 = $100

    Completely independent of one another Paco.

    Unit is a concept representing a percentage of your bankroll. My guess is about 15% of this board bets 100.00 unit

    So if you win $50 at BTP you should make 50 penny bets?

    I typed a random number into what page of PT to go (1203) to and saw this thread. Yup, I was bored.
