How many games to you bet per day?

**thezbar** · 03-24-08, 11:45 PM

I played one game today and it was a winner. Its a style I seem to have more sucess at. There was a time when I would play ten games a night. Everyone's different. The volume approach just didn't work for me.

That is true...I am still very new to handicapping and trying track a good sample amount so I know where I stand before next NBA season.

A wise move. Finding out what is right for you is part of the battle.

**diogee** · 03-24-08, 11:52 PM

That is how I feel...just keep the money small while learning what works.

I limit the time of year in which I bet. March madness, nba playoffs, football and some base futures. These are my strengths. The other stuff, regular nba, baseball season I've don't have it. I've learned to be careful with sports betting because it is very easy to get carried away. I am only a recreational player. To some on this site I would be considered small potatoes. To the average person I could be considered a sicko gambler. The truth is somewhere in between.

One thing that I have learned is that I will never bet on March NCAA since the game seems to change quite a bit....nothing wrong with small potatoes.

There you go. I am totally different. I watch the thurs, fri games very carefully and have a history of doing well that sat and sun. Apples and oranges.

**diogee** · 03-25-08, 12:17 AM

Yes sir...do what makes you the cash.

**carparts1000** · 11-22-10, 09:20 PM

less is more.

**BRAVES1985** · 11-25-10, 01:09 PM

3 or 4

**autotide** · 11-25-10, 01:33 PM

i dont bet more than 3 or 4 games a week

**IEDodgerFan** · 11-25-10, 01:56 PM

Best advice: Narrow down games at best value for you. I used to bet more and chase...never good.

My max: 4 games/day

**pstaff1989** · 11-25-10, 02:07 PM

I bet 1 game a day. I bet the totals of games, and base my bets off of a variety of statistical analysis. I love to see a lot of trends pointing towards the under of a game, and if the public is on the Over, I start licking my chops. I am 10-1 on nba totals this season, and 14-5-4 on nhl totals. I cannot pick sides to save my life, and the No Fun League has been tough this year. Sometimes I follow Indian Cowboy's college hoops plays or football plays, but lately I have had a lot of success on my own which is why I haven't been tailing him.

If you get +EV plays the more the better.

**urge2kill** · 11-25-10, 02:22 PM

I've averaged 7.87 bets per day so far this year. I wouldn't limit myself to an arbitrary number of bets per day. If I think there's an edge I'll bet it.

**Nicky Santoro** · 11-25-10, 02:32 PM

anywhere between 25 to 72 bets a day. In fall, it's usually alot more...In 2010, i averaged 36 bets a day. I bet on everything available.. I put in over 13,000 bets this year. I am a very sick man.

**craig4nr** · 11-25-10, 02:35 PM

I usually bet on 4 or 5 a day, but on NCAA Football and/or Basketball Saturdays it's usually more.

thats sick!

Bet every game on the card every day of the week. Thats the motto I live by, go for about 75% of the prop bets as well. Then bet about 12 parlays.

people bump threads that are over 2 years old .

**unusialsusp5** · 11-30-10, 10:54 PM

on a given day why wouldn't you just find the best bet. 1 game. you would drive a local crazy doing this. go 5-2 for the week +3 units and he will be trying to get you to bet more. what does that tell you.

**flyingillini** · 11-30-10, 11:02 PM

15-30 a day.

**jjgold** · 11-30-10, 11:03 PM

approx 4-10
