    Default How to manage a bankroll with only $50?

    I don't deposit much. Usually only $50 each deposit and usually end up losing it all the same day. I've been on the worst slumps of my life and i can't seem to win one damn game. How can i manage my bankroll better? I don't like depositing a lot as i don't trust myself with a larger bankroll.

    Just shoot yourself, it would be a service to society.

    You should bet $1 a game.

    Instead of depositing $50 394389439 times you should just deposit a larger amount and make smaller plays.

    I started with a $100 bankroll a couple of months ago, I would bet 2-5 per game. I have about $250 now, and have increased to 5-10 per game. You will have a problem betting lower stakes now because you are used to betting more per game. If you are serious about it, put in whatever you can spare, and bet a fixed unit size, 2-5% of bankroll. Hopefully when I start working this summer I can deposit some more.

    Better playing with $50 at a time than $500

    What's the difference if it's 1-2% of your bankroll..?

    If you're only willing to deposit $50.00 at a time, then stick to $2.00 to $5.00 parlays. You'll be able to bet for a lot longer.

    Let it ride on One game. Then start thinking about what to do with it. Don't bet $5-$10 bets. 1%-2%. that's not going to help you unless you want a $4 return on your money. Lay it on One game.

    I once turned $17 in to $5000..... I started off with a 4 team parlay then kept doubling up. I ended up losing it all back though.

    You need to establish a bankroll. It's whatever you choose, doesnt mean you have to have it all on a sportsbook. Decide what that is and bet 1-2% per play.

    If you keep depositing than $50 is not your bankroll.

    If $50 really is your bankroll, you should probably just find another hobby as your really not going to make it worth the while.

    I can't be bothered looking for the thumbs up icon.
