I don't believe all this bankroll talk gamblers like to throw around. I know gamblers and I know what "money management" really means to most of them-- always managing to have money when there's a game on TV, regardless of where they have to take it from. That may sound harsh, but I know it's true.

The real issue is discipline. The real issue is not plunging because you want to make a score. The real issue is not having ridiculous expectations. The real issue is not thinking you can solve all you problems by gambling.

Sometimes you tame the tiger and sometimes the tiger has you for lunch.

Here's the best money management system I ever found. Wager just enough so that when the bases are loaded in the bottom of the ninth with two outs you heart is racing a little faster. If your pulse isn't racing, you aren't betting enough to call yourself a player. If your heart is pounding so much you think you might have a heart attack, you're betting too much.

OK Russ.... copyright those 4 paragraphs, bottle them up, do whatever you want....YOU COULD NOT HAVE SUMMED IT UP BETTER.

You have summarized the vast and expansive subject of money management in sports betting in just 4 paragraphs whereas other pretenders have written whole books on the subject and the gambler is still left scratching his head.. outstanding.

I'm still chuckling at how you managed to hit the nail on the head in so short a breath.

:+thumbs-2 :+thumbs-2 :+thumbs-2 :cheers :+textinbo
