just cause you get on a hot streak don't move you bets up so much cause losing streaks do happen to all of us. stick to around 2% of your bankroll per bet and you will weather the storm that way.

I would stop living in a fantasy world where you own a house in Monaco and take frequent trips to Italy. Move out of your parent's house, get an education and a job.
Your money management skills are atrocious and that's saying it nicely.

I really get worried when I have a nice streak like that because it doesn't last forever and thats usually when I feel invinsable and do dumb things like making degenerate bets instead of doing what got me there. If I were you instead of increasing the size of your bets 4X increase it by a small amount like $50 and if your streak continues another $50 but if you start losing decrease the size of your bets again don't chase.

Lower your bankroll. Start following others if you cant make your own picks. That way if you lose you can be harsh on them and not yourself :-D
