    What is just as important as picking games is managing your bank roll. I have general rules but they vary from sport to sport. The only system I use does not tell me which games to play..it just points me to which games to handicap which cuts down on my work load. Now if your asking about how to handicap games...the only place to learn that is in the school of hard knocks.

    As Rich has mentioned above, it's always good advise to implament a money management plan. also Don't bet on everything out there, just stick with betting on sports that you know and feel confortable betting on.

    Another thing you need to do is avoid chasing your losses, because that will kill you every time. thats something alot of people just don't seem to do for some reason.

    money management, living to see your next bet is very key...stick with thour game plan at the beginning of the day/ week...if you plan on playing 5 games ina day, play 5...don't play more if you do well or poorly on those five...chasing gets people into a lot of trouble...

    Yea I have an important one:

    NEVER LOSE MORE THAN 10% OF YOUR GROSS PAY TO ALL TYPES OF GAMBLING.

    Seriously, cap your losses at 10% of your gross salary. So if you are humping a truck for a yearly salary of $35k a year your bankroll for the year should fail-safe max at $3,500.

    Not Changing up your style cuz of a slump. Slumps come to the best of
    us. Look at me I was even in a slump. When your in a slump and see that
    your coming around add a unit or two to your bets cause likely it will be
    a winning streak. Good cappers win with more than 55% of there picks
    so if you have lost 5 out of 6 then chances are a winning streak is
    coming, Just know when it is??

    By the same nature, if you toss a coin 10 times and heads come up 10 times then on the next 10 flips you're surely going to get more than 5 tails, right?

    Wrong.

    Taco,If i would of said the opposite you would of
    disagreed with that. You are a stalker that I don't
    want around me anymore. No one on here respects
    you and even your lover quarm has told you not to
    bother me. Why don't you take his advice? Raiders
    was so right about you being a weird dude. I thought
    there was a truce. I have enough haters on here. But
    one thing they never can admit is I win!! and I win
    alot!!! and there isn't nothing you or anyone can say
    about that!!

    imgv94, I am presuming that you can read. If you can then you can see the advice offered earlier:

    And then, in total disregard to the consensus of advice, you proclaim that you should disregard all money management systems and start betting bigger the more you lose. Sorry, but if you or anyone posts something as dumb as that then I'll pull them up on it. If you feel like I'm picking on you then obviously you're making a lot of dumb posts.

    Oh, and cut down with the insults - I've warned you against that before. You might think you're an internet bigshot abusing people behind the safety of your monitor, but we know you don't like it when you're on the receiving end. Want me to go back to google and find more pictures of that fat kid?

    I never said when you lose bet more. I said bet more when you see the
    wave coming back in your favor. I pick winners. You come on here and pick
    on people like raiders and myself. You stalk,You spend endless time looking
    for anything you can on someone. I appreciate all the time you spend on
    me, it proves that you must care. I don't care about you. You care about
    me. Your the one that started talking about me. You started this B.S
    and I have tried to end it. But your stalking crazy weirdo self insists on
    prolonging this. You are a weird individual that is taking on a monster. I
    am a winner. A proven winner. Stop talking about me.

    Taco, if I could just say, dont go down that road mate. You may agree or not with posters or not but to find ways of personally ridiculing them is a bit below the belt perhaps.

    Name calling, outrageous claims etc can be annoying or not but trying to personally ridicule someone because of looks or their private life isnt good.

    Im not taking sides or anything and I know you know this anyway deep down. Its not like you cant articulate yourself pretty well!!
