    I only play pro leagues so when there aren't a lot of games to choose from I end up only playing one.

    betting more than one game a day isn't killing you, picking losers is whats killing you.

    Bet on the games you think you have an edge on, the amount of games don't matter.

    Money management!!!!! Key to sports investing! If only one game a day so be it. Be discipline! Set unit amount & stick with it! Good luck!

    For the NFL season, I usually just play a single 1pm and 4pm game. Although when the Sunday night game rolls around, I do play that also.

    Success has absolutely nothing to do with # of daily plays. It has to do with playing when you have an EDGE, Managing your roll & hitting at a rate of 53% or more as close to +ev as possible.

    If you can't do that (most can't) - you're screwed.

    I can, its not that hard for me. But what I like to do, is pick one game per league. So basically something like this. 1 NHL, 1 NBA and 1 NFL. Now, I don't always bet games in a league just because they are available. It still has to be a 'good bet'.

    Bet on as many as you've done proper analysis.

    For most of the folks here, that is less than 1 game a day.

    If you are betting for action, you are on the road to ruin.

    I play 1 a day. Yesterday i played 2 for the 1st time in a long time. I went 2-0. I was going to take Washington ML but the line moved. I did not like that. So i took Washington st. + the points and Suns ML.

    Boring and stupid, in most cases.

    Limiting yourself to a daily number of bets is silly, you should bet (like others have said) when the situation is right. If you just pick a random team, then sure, just play one per day. If you research all the games etc. you shouldn't limit yourself to just one as you will miss out on opportunities.
