Default noob question

Is there a window of too many or too few bets on a daily basis?


is it better to try to hit over .500 on daily basis with lets say 3-5 bets


vs. 1 top pick a day for a season?


just wanted to get my first post out of the way and move from lurker to poster.


lots of good info gathered on here too..

while (there is +EV bets out there) **

Of course you still need to figure out how much to bet. But there is no such thing as too many +EV bets.

Wager one game at a time and adjust your next bet according to its outcome.

venge,

Welcome to the forum. xyz is right, there's no such thing as making too many +EV bets, and there are tons of those to potentially be made daily.

The problem is, if you had to ask that question, it's very unlikely that you've advanced to the point of identifying +EV bets.

Be conservative if you don't have a very good reason to believe your bets are +EV.

Venge...welcome to SBR...this forum is a great place to talk sports, specifically the lines and games in that regard...plus, the point system is great stuff too. I usually try and make 3-4 picks a day...the key to gambling successfully over a longer period of time is have a good system and only bet smaller % of your stack at a time. However, there are no rules for making money...just whatever works for you! BOL!
