On some games i want to put down $500 on a team but end up only putting $250 b/c i dont wanna put my bankroll in jepordy. Then it will be a blowout and i would have ended up winning the 500 but only win 250. Im so mad at myself for not going with my instinct but i still win 250 dollars. Should i just be happy with the 250?? Am i being greedy thinking like this? I have done this 3 times this year already! Any comments/experiences are welcome . Thanks guys.

Make the same $ bet every time, why bet a game if you do not think it is stronger than your others.

Bet the same amount whatever that is on your strong games and don't bet any other games period.

Don't get greedy it will cause you to chase, agree with JJ on this, put a system in place. . .

[chriscapper]

Well thats a problem doing that...b/c if i lose my big game and win the smallers games i can do some damage control.

[jjgold]

why bet smaller games??

i also have a unit size scale of 1-10, but even one 1 unit play is a very strong play. . . rarely cross a 3 unit play. . .

b/C like i said...if i have a $250 bet and thre $50 bets and i lose the 250 but end up winning the $50 bets i wont lose as much. I bet the games i like thoughnot just for the hell of it. Some games i just like more than others.

I have somehting like that also. I bet 100-500. But i wanted to put 500 on a team but shy away. Then end up winning and becoming mad that i didnt put what i wanted on it ya know? Lol..i know i sounds like a greedy b!tch but just wondering what u guys were thinking about it.

well, yea but its a win dude, and still you increased from your min bet 100 and made it 250. . . You did put more on it. . . So if you put 500 you would say i should of put 1000 on it and so on. .

[chriscapper]

I agree. A win is a win. But its not like im sayin i should have after the fact. I had it written down as a 500 play and put it in as a 250. I sometimes just think scared money doesnt make money, ya know. But starting Jan 1st i will start a new Money Management scale and will strictly follow it.
