    Can't Win With A Small Bankroll

    It's why I am a loser

    If you do not have $10,000 to start for each sport its very difficult

    Not true.

    Hit a run or a parlay.

    Throw 300 in a book, hit a 3 Teamer and roll from there

    Yes you can although I'm an exception. I turned 800 to 8k from Friday to Saturday. Last January I turned 100 to almost 50k. It's rare but can happen.

    If you're risking too much in comparison to your available bankroll, true. It's all a matter of proportion.

    I always tell myself this when I start from humble beginnings such as 500 and then when I make it up to 5k I totally forget what I told myself and end up going back to the same amount I started with. This has happened repeatedly over and over. Greed is a powerful POWERFUL emotion.

    Bankroll size doesn't matter. If you're looking to win, and you can pick winners its all about bankroll management. If you're throwing down a hundie with $200 BR, you won't last. You'll eventually lose a bet, you can't win em all.

    Way I do it, risk 5-10% of your bankroll MAX a day. As your account grows, so does your bet size. Works the same way with daytrading/forex etc.

    Also the same emotion that gets you from 500 to 5k. Greed is good.

    betpoints should be meaningless to people turning small deposits into thousands of dollars...

    Sir you are an idiot. I had that loan since before I won. Am I supposed to stiff someone just cause I won something? And I posted the screenshot and proved myself.
