    Default please provide input on this system:

    Goal is to make $1000 every saturday.

    Bet $1100 to win $1000 on a noon game. If win, dont bet at all anymore, already hit goal of $1000.

    If you lose the noon game, bet $2300 to win $2100 on a 3 pm game. If win, dont bet at all anymore, already hit goal of $1000.

    If you lose the 3 pm game, bet $3600 to win $3200 on a night game. Hopefully you win.

    Do you think this could work, given you do your research for each game? I suppose you would only need $10000 to cover any bad streaks you run into.

    Thoughts would be appreciated, thanks guys

    no that doesnt work.....try doing the math

    if you lose 1100 at noon, then win 2000 at 3pm youre up 900

    If you lose both of thos you are down 3300 so a win at 3 only makes you up 700

    plus if you lose all three youre screwed....and with each pick you have to make the pressure mounts more and more. And the more pressure you have on a pick the more you'll start leaning towards favs thinking "they gotta cover" and your picks get worse and worse

    Its called chasing, and it never works.

    Its a "square" system, and the other word for it is "compulsive gambling."

    Find a monetary amount you can bet, and stand to lose about 4 to 5 bets in a row. If you can lose that much in a row and still have money for the next few weeks, you're good.

    If you can be 1100 on a single game money shouldn't be a problem for you, and break your bankroll into units, or 1% - 5% of the amount in your pocket. This will allow you to go on rolls, and add it to your bankroll, then you can add to the amount of each unit. As money come, and goes from you bankroll the unit amount should be recalculated as needed.

    $1500 Bankroll

    5% of bankroll = $75
    -- If win, bankroll = $1575
    -- New 5% = $80

    -- If lose, bankroll = $1425
    -- New 5% = $70

    The season has about 8 weeks left, and you got to make that money last. B/c losing is part of gambling.

    When I am rolling and I want to make a hefty proffit while I'm on that roll I do this.

    I start with a $100 seperate bankroll. I then play 1/3 of that starting bankroll. Next game I play 1/3 of the new bankroll (regardless of won or loss in first game ) next game 1/3 again. I keep repeating the 1/3 rule. I haven't done the math and I don't care about the math all I know is I start with an amount that won't really effect anything if I lose it and I keep trying to roll it over 1/3 at a time. If you get on a nice lil roll it can build up rather quickly after several wins. I usually do this right around Christmas time to build a nice lil fund for gifts and stuff. Christmas time around Wal's house has been rather slim since starting this system because it's just college hoops and bowl games in December neither of which are my strengths. Maybe I should start it and run from Week's 5 through end of regular season in college football. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

    I've lost over twenty hands in a row at blackjack before. Bad runs happen.

    No betting system like this can become a long-term winner if the underlying bets aren't good enough to beat the juice. If they are good enough, then either way you'll win long term so the system isn't buying you anything.

    If you have an infinite bankroll, and can get off infinite action, this system is great!

    if you could go all the way to monday night football it would be almost impossible to lose... that would be 11 am 2 30 pm 5 pm 9pm 12 noon sunday 3 pm sunday 7 pm sunday and then mnf. thats 50 percent to win 8 times in a row.

    How about this...... pick 3 games each Saturday. "your favorite 3" Bet $440 on each game.
    3-0 = $1200
    2-1 = $360
    1-2 = -$480
    0-3 = -$1320

    If you go 0-3 you are not down $7000 and you can live to battle next week.
    If you go 3-0 you make more than your goal.
    You can always take your $360 and try to double in on a late game.

    Like everyone else says..... chasing is a bad system. I've known people that have gotten in a lot of trouble with bookies by chasing.

    Like everyone said... Bad beats/streaks happen more often then most realize. My first week of CFB, I went like 2-12. I would have been busted using that format. Here's a program I've followed for years that works for me... When I lose and are on a losing streak, I bet lower, when I win and I'm on a winning streak, I bet more. Most people do the exact opposite.

    Or take Oklahoma State this week for $1100 and then you met your goal this week
