4-7 days, Herman is a smart kid, just had bad money management problems such as myself, Patty and a lot of younger guys have.

He will be fine for a few days, then lose 3 straight gms, go all in on tilt and lose it all

$165.89

the problem with onner is that he's a very obsessive gambler. he has no self control. he can bet 10$ a game no problem, but if he loses 4 straight, he's liable to chase it all on the next game and put 120$ and then he'll say fukk it, if i lose this game, i'm out.. he has no self control at all, i know his type.

so he's liable to lose this whole 165$ in 3 days, or less.. he just cannot bet 10-20$ a game and keep it that way..

he's too compulsive..

no one here has worst money mgmt than onner. but he does how to pick winners..

Onner does know what he is doing but as Nicky says he will go all-in at some point and blow it all. One of these times he will stick to his plan though and build it up.

nice work by him to get 3 figure winnings from BTP... did well on the right week

I think that when Onner grows older he may aquire the self control and money management he needs to complement his growing knowledge of getting getting good +ev #'s ect.

but for now i'm not sure 165 is enough for him to not go all in right off the bat...

one of the main guys I thought of when starting this thread

not alot of point in killing yourself to beat the pinny closer by a few cents for 10 games a day for weeks at a time.... when the first time you go 2-8 you chase and go all in eventually and go bust.

a waste of a lot of effort

onner has a very addictive personality.. i remember thsi summer he was betting at matchy and doing well.. he was betting only +ev games. he had like 3 winning days in a row and built up his acct. .the next day he went 2-13 on 10$ bets and his acct went down to like 145$.. the next day, he was so upset and wanted to get that money back from the previous day, that he put the whole 145$ on one game and lost it. then he had nothing left.

onner hates to lose money and when he does, he is too anxious to win it back fast. that's a big no no in gambling. gambling is not a sprint, it's a marathon. onner has to learn to control himself and keep his composure or he'll have a hard time in this business.. he knows what it takes to win, but has a hard time controlling himself

he is too obsessive.

I am already on tilt

The payouts are fukkin rigged and I should have gotten like $250 instead of $150

I am probably betting Yanks to win WS

[pavyracer]

So far 86% think he will give it back.

[onthewhat]

I am putting half of winnings on STL cards and other half on red sox/angels future

Pavy give me the winner of series, angels vs sox
