Do you start off betting one game a day and try to build your bank slowly or do you play multiple games and just try to hit 60% or better and turn a profit? Do you always bet the same amount? or do you use a unit system? Thanks for input

I typically structure units @2.5% of the roll, you can adjust this according to your betting style. GL

Make sure you set aside emergency money for yourself/family. feel out your bookie or sports book and make sure it can actually payout. no point in putting 2000 in a sportsbook that isnt legit or has too many hurdles to get a check/payout. i've seen/heard too many sob stories. even poker (fulltilt) didnt pay out people. if you want the full degen experience bet more than 20% a day. you might lose sleep or be like this: but you might be: know your teams, some teams lose 2nd games of B2B (see portland last night and heat tonight ) tonight the warriors @ PHIL was -320 money line, pretty easy to make dough if youre willing to risk 50% of your disposable monthly income. no brainer if you got the degen in you.
