    Most games uve eve lost in a row?

    I'm currently on a 10 game losing streak and 15 out of the last 16... I'm by far no great capper or anything. Just love the gamble but I do fairly well but here lately this streak is ridiculous. Everytime I bet I feel like its gonna lose ugh... Anyway what's the longest losing streak uve ever been on?

    decreasing unit size during losing streaks helps lessen the blow.

    Bankroll percentage per bet. Helps soak up losing streaks, and helps bankroll grow during winning streaks.

    Money Management. Some don't know it.

    Occasionally I will lose 5-6 out of 7-8 in a day's MLB wagers. That's about as bad as it gets. With money management I don't sweat it and just keep grinding. The goal is to win most days/weeks and keep striving to get sharper at handicapping. You can't win every day. I have never really considered winning or losing streaks, just trying to get up into the profitable range over time.

    Chasing would drive me insane. Best of luck for those who do it.

    Can't remember the last time I lost 5 in a row or more.


    In poker 20 is an everyday thing. 98 out of a 100 seems like a realistic few days.
    Yes the odds go into one in a billion +......

    I made 5 baseball bets in a day and lost all five. I parlayed them as well, thier should be a rule were you get 1/1 odds for picking all losers in parlay of 5 teams or more.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think at least at Palazzo if you do a parlay card and go O'fer they do pay you.

    I've seen books that give you 1/1 odds for losing one game on 4 teams, or 2 teams on 6 team parlays. but you get severly reduced odds for like 4/1 on a four team parlay. so it's kinda dumb
