    Just keep doubling your bet after each loss. What could possibly go wrong? Why didn't we think of that a long time ago!

     Jimmy - I agree with you, one series loss wipes out a lot of wins. I have used multiple Labby versions and do better but still am not satisfied. Is there a money management system you use that you have success with?

    Google Tony Stoffo's Money Management System.  He has a good progression for the classic -110 as well as some other nice ideas.  It is not a very long read.

    Stay disciplined and manage your bankroll

    Or, just don't wager money you can't afford to lose.  Are there some people who make a living wagering on sports (or anything for that matter)?  Sure.  I'd go out on a limb to say that they're spending 100% of their working hours strictly on gambling.  They're also probably engaged in buying insider info from team/league and even media insiders who have access to information prior to it being public.

    @TRAKKER

    Some investment systems can work well if you're betting on lines looking for equal returns.

    @TRAKKER the sharps and wise guys use money managment system 2% of bank on each game u bet per day

     

    say you have bank of $1000 this allows you to bet any game for $20 period not $22 $20 wins $18

     

    so say week 1 in nfl u bet 5 games go 3-2 you win $154 LOST $40 $114 net Bank is now $1140

     

    week 2 um not good 2-wins 3 losses 60$ negative from 2 wins $76 leaves you with $16 1140 after betas was $1040 bank is now $1056

     

    week 3 weeeeeeee 4-1 won $152 lost $20  NET +$132 bank was after bets placed $956 +$132 = $1088

    week 4 yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 5-0 bank was $988 after bets placed +$190 Bank is now $1178 still using 2% you can wager $23.56 per game ok still stay at $20 because you know it will happen that draeded 0 for week

     

    lets say week you pushed it 6 games lost all thats $120 gone from 1178 was down to $1058 after bets placed

     

    week 6 another disaster 2 wins 4 losses won 76 $ lost $80 1058 was down to $938 and you minus -$4 = $934

     

    week 7 yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 4-1 banks was after bets $834 WON $152 lost $20 net + $132 Bank is now $986 not bad after 7 weeks

     

    so nw lets say you won week 8 wek 9 week 10 you now have $2000 bank so you cn bet $40 per game

     

    week 11 disaster 1 win 5 losses -200 1 win is $76 2000$ was after bets placed $1800 minus $124 = $1676 so after 11 weeks you have profit of $676 = +$61.45 per week

     

    so lets avearge it out for 17 weeks +$369 more $2045.00 for playoffs and super bowl ok bet more because you have less games each week so say you went perfect

     

    $100 each wild cards 6  thats $600 more $1445 after bets placed NOW $2045.00 div round same 6 games bank after bets placed $1445 + 600 $2045

    now the conf finals 4 games but you wager $200 on each win back $180 2045 - 800 bank after bets placed $1245 won back $1520 YOU now have $2765 for the superbowl

     

    so you can risk $1765 and still leave with $1000 if you somehow lost every bet

    bet you dont lose them all like margin of victory n e time TD scorer over or unders in game parlays like 4 wr to catch td's can reap you $1000 on $100 bet

    and if you hit exact score like it was last year 38-35 a 410 bet on both teams you could win a fortune like $67,000 the higher scores pay more

     

    a normal 24 - 21 score would pay way less but i sure you know this any way you hve so many shots each week to hit exact score in any game

    so nw lets say you won week 8 wek 9 week 10 you now have $2000 bank so you cn bet $40 per game

     

    week 11 disaster 1 win 5 losses -200 1 win is $76 2000$ was after bets placed $1800 minus $124 = $1676 so after 11 weeks you have profit of $676 = +$61.45 per week

     

    so lets avearge it out for 17 weeks +$369 more $2045.00 for playoffs and super bowl ok bet more because you have less games each week so say you went perfect

     

    $100 each wild cards 6  thats $600 more $1445 after bets placed NOW $2045.00 div round same 6 games bank after bets placed $1445 + 600 $2045

    now the conf finals 4 games but you wager $200 on each win back $180 2045 - 800 bank after bets placed $1245 won back $1520 YOU now have $2765 for the superbowl

     

    so you can risk $1765 and still leave with $1000 if you somehow lost every bet

    bet you dont lose them all like margin of victory n e time TD scorer over or unders in game parlays like 4 wr to catch td's can reap you $1000 on $100 bet

    and if you hit exact score like it was last year 38-35 a 410 bet on both teams you could win a fortune like $67,000 the higher scores pay more

     

    a normal 24 - 21 score would pay way less but i sure you know this any way you hve so many shots each week to hit exact score in any game
