#8Small on the losers. Lots on the winners. Gl figuring out which is which tho..,
I know the smart ppl will tell you 5% is too much but if we bring honest i float around that number often. I was being serious with the “what bankroll” comment, cause that it not a certain number, can always reload if have to.Comment -

I been doing this over half my 41 years on this planet and still to this day I’ll be wise and conservative while things going good but when I hit a slump start betting more and more, like total fukkin opposite of what I should be doing. Lol.Comment -

#13Well this is an open ended question.
If your bankroll is $500 and you bet 5% on each play you will probably just end up losing it slowly depending on the amount of events you bet.Comment -

go to USA books
you dont need a "bankroll"
you bet and then you withdraw or you lose
there is no goddamn "bankroll"
bankroll is a made up term by bookies and passed along to "sharps" that get paid by the bookiesComment -

THATS THE END OF IT
why would you keep money in an offshore account accruing 0% interest for you and some for them
bunch of goddamn clowns around here
yea ill leave 95% of bankroll offshore and money manage it with 5% plays

#19this is your real answerOriginally posted by kidcudi92100%
as far as i know, you pay the same PERCENTAGE when depositing
so why would you send 10k offshore to bet 5% when you can just send $500 each time and get reload bonuses for each loss?

#21Depends on your goals I suppose. Is your goal to make money? How much per month? Do you know how good you are at what you are betting on? Do you frequently beat the closing line? How many books do you play at? Do you think you are getting a good price?
For most recreational gamblers... and I would say that is probably 99% of this forum... I would recommend betting as little as possible as long as it makes the game more interesting to you(I assume you watch the games). If you have no interest in watching the games... then you are surely betting to make a profit. If that's the case... you need to figure out exactly how good you are at what your are doing.
I could be wrong about this but... my feeling is... people that make money at sportsbetting put a lot of time into it. They keep track of their plays. They don't bet with their emotions. They play at multiple sportsbooks. They are real fussy about prices. If you are not doing these things... I suggest betting as little as possible as long as it makes the game more interesting for you.Comment -

#23That's my whole point, if $5 doesn't give you a thrill... bet more. I think for most people on SBR even $20 gets them more interested in the game. If you're doing $100(or more) a game and you don't even know how good you are... that's just stupid. Unless you can REALLY afford it.Originally posted by RudyRuetiggerthis is like going to amusement parks and going to the kiddie rides

deposit what you want to lose in that game
if you lose, redeposit

only clowns DEPOSIT a full bankroll and bet 5%
you are really pissing away money at that point by just letting money sit offshore

#30Rudy: Settle down Francis.
blade: When you determine a great shot, if and only when, fire 1/3 away. If you miss prepare to be all-in on the next great shot. That's how you obliterate losing streaks. Then your steady bankroll begins again.

then be prepared for an all in (2/3) next play
what a clown
unless its a new book with a sign up bonus, only deposit what you want to bet on the next game
its really that simple. why are you giving books interest on your money?

#33No doubt. I just have to get it to a certain point before that is true, or rather just lose and put few Hundo back in. I hardly ever put more than Hundo or 2 in offshore at a time. Look to run it up w parlays then if I do i start doing things different.. i ran up baseball few times this year and took decent payout at asb, had ok amount then kinda got killed w some ugly beats Saturday. So today decided to go for it with what was left to hopefully have solid amount for nfl, if it went bad was gonna have to deposit few hundred and start over w football, luckily today worked out well and i got some bullets for this weekend!!
