why would you fade someone hitting 85%? Yes his 85% is probably a lot of luck and he should be hitting 55-65%, but even on a small sample size its very unlikely anyone who has bet 41 games and is hitting 85% is going to have a real winrate of much under 50%.
It made no sense to fade him.

1)Remove your ego-"If your not humble you will come back humiliated"
2)You Have no favorite team anymore-follow all of them, to bastardize an Al Davis quote-"Just cover baby,just cover"
3)You need European books as outs.I explained how to accomplish this in another thread-not for lines but to move money in under a day
4)Two bankrolls-one to throw away on action one for real wagers NEVER DO THE TWO CROSS(A lot of pros will disagree with this but we are degenerates and need this)
5)Discipline
more to follow

Honestly
and I loathe to admit this
and I'm not saying this in some self help guru crap way
but
pick up a NA step working guide
Read past the 12 step propaganda
and honestly answer the questions
it will make you think about why you act the way you do
from there you can correct mistakes with out the baggage
