            $100.

            Everytime.

            Also, not to talk shit - as I am not - but why $7? No way you are playing -110's at $7. That is a grind I cannot wish on anyone. If you're in the beginning moments of your degenerate career, and are trying to stick to solid BR management, I guess that makes sense.

            But $7 is a weird fukkin' number to call your average.

            Also, I'd recommend start shooting for parlays at $7. At least then you have a shot of winning something.

                                To be fair, JayVegas thought he could make a living in Vegas with no job and no set place to live by betting $10 3-5 team parlays.

                                      To be fair. Grinding it out is the name of the game when it comes to sports betting. The reason why 7 is cause I started with 350 in my account. I risk 2% of that on each wager.


                                      Books want you to try and go for the one time big hitter. Cause one loss and u all gone and then u deposit more and if u do win that 1st time u usually shoot it all. But hey if that works for you.all g

                                        No fukkin' shit.

                                        Can't say I should be surprised. A lot of people treat the state lottery as their retirement plan.

                                        It makes sense from a money management standpoint. I just can't even fathom it, and I've been at or been around all levels of this thing.

                                        $7 bets just seams like death by 1000 cuts.

                                        Do your thing, hopefully your 2% carries you up to sizeable bet size before long.

                                          And there's nothing wrong with that.
                                          I appreciate a 7 dollar average player that knows what he's talking about and turns a profit, than a 100 dollar average player who's a blowhard and a consistant loser.

                                          Having said that, I wager between .5* (50 dollars, for a lean) up to 3* (300 dollars for something I really like) a game.
                                          With the average I guess about 150 per game, I bet maybe 4 baseball games a week or so.

                                                I also believe that betting baseball is a total different monster compares to football and basketball. For one reason. You should never lay huge juice in baseball ex over -165. For one reason. The very best teams in baseball will have a winning percantage of of around 66%. We all see that in baseball that even the worse team will beat the best team sometimes compared to footbAll where the best teams will have a much higher winning % in the 80's even 90's.

                                                    $100 is standard unit for football but bases I've cut back to using $50...way too many cold streaks this season for me.

                                                          Funny story today. One of my coworkers today was talking to me about and asked me so much how do you play per play. So i told her I play $7/ play. She just laughed and was like why even play you barely win anything. Tryed to explain to her that a smart gambler only wagers 1-2% of there bankroll of each wager. She still didn't get it. She just kept laughing. Shes like why you scared you can't pick winners. Tryed to tell her that even the best at this only hit 60%. I swear some people are just so unrealistic and think that they can pick winners week after week. Lol just crazy. I swear watch her husband is going to have a bad week and boom deep in the hole. Whats ironic is she is always like I'm taking donations to go visit her sons in college. She always sees me taking small bits of profit to the bank. Lol. Shows how well she doing. GL TO ALL

                                                              i'm reloading next week now that football season is upon us. watching the first two weeks to see where teams fall. i'll be putting $200 into three books. right now i'm with 5dimes, bovada, and looking for a 3rd. trying to get into heritage but if not there, i'll look into bookmaker. i'll be around $10 per play. plays ranging from 5-25.

                                                              suman, what do you do for a living?
