The perils of bad money management

[cleaveland]

I'm 7-1 in baseball so far and yet only +3.7 units. How?

My one loss was -3.1 units, I have:

Faded Washington until they won: 2-1 -1.1 units (I bet 3.1 units at -155 odds to win two units and lost)

Faded the Astros the last four games: 4-0 +4 units

Bet on the Tigers once 1-0 +.8 units

This is the story of my life. I'm capable of winning but not controlling myself. I've learned my lesson. One unit at a time.

Do what I do when this happens place your hand in a door jam stick a towel in your mouth close your eyes and slam the door with all your strength, you will be surprised on how good this works as a management tool

Good strategy to bet same amount every game, less chance to get hurt

Good advice, we learn from out mistakes.
Nothing worse than ruining a good week with one heavy loss.

gotta learn from our mistakes... thats what it is all about..... but at various times we are all guilty of loading up too much on one game or another
