Knowing how to bet is possibly more important than what you are betting.

Many great handicappers still go belly up, betting bad numbers and/or not understanding or knowing what their edge is.

Capital One Bank is currently offering a 1.5% interest rate on their savings account. Can start the account online easily and throw 80 grand in it and you will get back $100 a month in interest earnings. $100 might pay your gas or cell phone bill every month.

It's better then getting nothing as most banks don't offer shit on your money just sitting in there collecting dust while inflation is kicking all our asses.

No risk involved.

understand you are not going to make a living off sports betting

maybe a small ROI if you are good, but need to consider the time investment needed and if its worth it.

You better be happy with 2-3%

Jibs,

I wish I could unsee this. You could've rolled 20% just in the last month in tech stocks. 1.5% will never beat inflation.

i-bonds

Never was a bond investor. I always think I can get better returns. I bonds are a long term hold, which isn't a bad thing, but having to wait 5 years to cash without penalty is a drawback to me.

I call it the Col Klink money management strategy. Basically it is derived from that 70's show Hogan's Heroes, from the Episode where Klink has to choose which wire to cut on a live bomb. He makes his choice and Hogan cuts the other wire. So the system goes like this. Do all of your calculating and capping then make your choice then have the 'ole lady make the bet, but she will always bet the other side and not tell you. This way when you think you're broke, your biatch will show up on day with a new $1000 purse leaving you wondering WTF?

Just saying if you have cash laying around in your bank doing nothing put it in Capital One Bank instead and make a little bit of interest on it. There is risk in tech stocks, there is no risk in the FDIC insured banks.

Throw $100,000 which is chump change for some in a Capital One Bank savings account and you'll make back $125 a month before taxes while being able to access that money at any time you want fully knowing it's 100% secure.

That's all. It's just something to do while finding a better investment down the road.

[Roscoe_Word]

There's this method (I don't use it) called the D'Alembert method.

I'm sure the sharpsters already know this but I'll post it for the REC players like me.

D'Alembert was a French mathematician around the turbulent times of the French Revolution when everyone was gettin be-headed.

Google can explain it better, but I think its something like:

If you lose, increase bet size 1 unit
If that loses, increase bet size to 2 units
If that loses, increase bet size to 3 units. (not 4 for double bet size)
If that wins, reduce next bet, reduce bet size to 2 units ...and so forth.

I think in that respect, its different for the Martingale method.

The theory is if you can hit 50%, you should be able to grind out a profit.

I don't think D'Alembert took the vig into consideration, but it's a clever system, nonetheless.

The books will surely (don't call me Shirley) see the pattern and counteract it.

Thats all I gotta say about that..............

Will be researching this D'Alambert fellow and his methods for risk management.
