    you have to expect to lose every week but set a goal you'd like to win I'd like to win $750 a week but expect to lose because if you expect to win you beat yourself up to much when you lose

        2 games a day is too much. to win realisticly u should be betting like 1 game every 2-3 days

            not to mention if you actually do this for a living your bank will only hit a new high 5% of the time

              Completely depends on what the games are you can sometimes find 4 games in one day that are better than 1 every 2-3 days

                I don't even look at it like that. I just bet if I win or lose its all the same.. never even think about trying to make a certain figure each week

                  I don't expect anything. If you're setting expectations like this on a weekly basis, you're setting yourself up for failure.

                    Somebody could go 2-9 over the course of 365 days or they could go 2-9 over the course of 1 day

                        Say what?

                        That's the most confusing thing I've ever (attempted) to read.

                          rake true thats why u need to be able to recognize winning situations. some days there isnt one game with a huge enough edge to takeit.

                            Pat...I don't think I have had a day in baseball yet where I have only bet 1 game. As long as I finish past my goal of +20 units then I am happy.

                              $2000-$3000 is somewhat of a weekly goal.........Just winning is the first and only goal.

                                depends on your bankroll size and how many bets u make per week and what % of your roll you risk per bet.

                                  That's the smart way of doing it

                                  I wish I had the discipline to do it.

                                    Somewhere around $47 million. Nothing less than that. How could I survive? I've got high class hookers to support...
