However in the real world with a small bankroll relative to house limits, you can bet more than one unit theoretically. The number I give is a multiplier against the base unit if you are betting the latter, and is basically more stability of the occurrence of a win. W2 = bet 2x your unit on the spread. O and U are over and under... In a normal month like FEB I went 54-38 or +16 games, but my multiple betting result was (better) at +27. I say better, but of course you need a bigger bankroll per unit to play the latter, so the ROI to total bankroll ultimately is not as good as flat betting at house limits. I list both because of different preferences (some people won't believe in a 20 unit bankroll to start). Hope this helps. Good Luck. |

OK. Thanks. I am using the flat results in the contest so my record is just what that says and you can see every game over there. I'll repeat it once in a while here. My ATS is doing much better than the O/U which has been a disaster lately and negative for the year. I'm not really proficient at O/U, but I thought I had things figured out. Looks like you have the opposite problem! I like a positive balance or at most a small loss for one month. Guess I will have to suck up and finish strong. Good luck to you all. I'll wrap up tomorrow. |

W = ATS. Number is if you are multiplying units, rather than flat betting. Obviously this month went downhill in the last few weeks, so beware. My O/U is off, but ATS is OK. I normally do not play moneylines, just the spread. I'm stretching a bit today and going over 3x on the multiple because I am so far behind on the month. Pitty, because I was up to 26th place and +12000 contest mid month. 87-87 MTD, big loser going into tonite. TILT. 3/31/14: 14 games, 22 units !!!

After 3 weeks my contest in March is 63-49-1 (+14 or +4550 contest units). Also, at 12000+ units for the year, I have eclipsed the 10000 units that would have been the starting bankroll at 5% betting for the contest. I started mid Jan, so 2 months is OK. . In the real world, crossing 2x bankroll would be a good time to double your base units and go for 3x or 4x the bankroll start (@15000 and 20000). Also, in March my weighted results are +24 bets. These all omit the 3/5/14 IND win for 4x that I forgot to put into the contest. I am also 26th in the contest. Another couple games I can claim my hat....

After 2 weeks: MTD record is 40-35. The weighted units bet are +11. Both these numbers do not include the 3/5/14 IND win for 4 units I forgot to log in the contest. Overcame my early deficit and am now positive units. 3/15/14: 8 games, 14 units MIL O (2X), WAS W (3X), DEN U, IND W (2X), DET O, MEM W, MEM O, SAC O (3X) |
