Unit value: What percentage of your money management?

[dieterketel]

I'm hearing lots of different strategies. Some say 1% others say 5%.

Whats your %?

[firedawg]

Depends on game...

[Regul8er]

I've been between 2-5% lately.

[Big Bear]

depends. every once in awhile 100%

incredible rush

[Sam Odom]

0.75 to 3.0

[BIGDAY]

I like chasing.

I do it until i cash.

[Giz]

2%-3%

[chilidog]

Depends on either your edge or how successful you are.

Haha I can imagine!

I have a long term strategy. First rule is never to go crazy ...

[dieterketel]

I play 10€ per game with a bankroll of 200€ (started with 100€ a week ago). Once I hit 500€, I'm betting 2% (10€) of my bankroll. From there on, I will raise my unit value along the growth of my bankroll.

[El Nino]

3-3.5% in hockey.

[Russian Rocket]

for me it's 1-4%....and it's not just one bet, that number represents a sum of all of my bets on any given day.

So if you have 100K BR
With my strategy you would bet no more than 4K per day. Whether it's one bet or you spread it out between 20 bets, it's up to you.

[TonyTall]

I have about 3k offshore. i bet $50 a game

about 1.5%

[VegasInsider]

Could range from 5% to all in.

It's my new year resolution to be lore disciplined.

[billysink]

4% as I make a very limited amount of plays and hit at a pretty consistent rate across all sports. No more than 4 units in play at once as a rule but haven't had more than 2 at any time since MLB.

Doesnt make sense to me RR? Isn't spreading the risk about the number of bets, regardless in which time frame they happen?

[zacher]

this is something I need to be better with…money management. I get crazy sometimes not necessarily "tilting" but just when I have a good feeling…….has bit me in the ass before obviously

I'm not understanding you

[dieterketel]

I'm not understanding you

You wouldn't bet more then 20 games if it exceded your daily limit? Even if you had 30 valuable games available?

Also you wouldn't mind spending your daily limit on just 3 games or so?

Perhaps you strategy is different with an above average bankroll?

[easyliving]

don't be afraid to take chances unless your a solid capper and can hit a solid % long term

that is exactly right, I never fall in love with my bets, my daily limit is preset and it represents 4% of my BR.
said all that, if I really like 1 bet out of 5, I will bet a much larger chunk of my daily limit on that wager.

im a blaster 100%

Bet money not units, sports betting isn't rocket science

Most guys here afriad to say they bet 10$ per game
