quote originally posted by ice_dog: alright, a little introduction. i've been betting for almost 2 years, leisurely in 2011, but i started betting more and with larger stake this year. needless to say, more losses -around 4k in total (is considered a huge sum of money for me). i have been able to control myself for the past 2 months, just betting a little to satisfy my "craving". during this time, i've done research, reading betting forums, and most importantly, cleared my head. so now, i'm going in with a plan.. my old betting habit: i never had a staking plan when betting, always going by feeling. win already, all-in until lose everything. stubborn i know, but is human nature. i am always chasing loss, increasing my bet each time to cover, but end up losing even more. when i hit 4k loss 2 months ago, i knew i had to stop. my new betting habit: by now, i am sure there will be some that will be asking why not quit gambling for good? well, the truth is i enjoy football and it is something i have interest in, much like people who play the stock market (which i have no interest in). i want to be able to make a little money out of it, maybe say 5-10% of the betting bankroll each month. it is little, but just consider it as making some extra money out of my hobby. this month, i tried a new betting habit, with rules i set for myself. on 1st aug: starting bankroll: $500 staking plan: 4% of bank (AH, O/U bets) ; 2% (PTS) now, 10 aug: current bankroll: $$537.52 ( 7.44 % profit) number of bets: 55 (W32, D1, L22) strike rate: 58.18% right now, i am satisfied with the way things are working. this has only been going on for 10 days, so the results/strike rates are still not consistant. some of my bets are still based on feelings, but they are also backed up with some research (e.g opening/closing odds, h2h, form, etc..). some are based on comparison between statistics and bookie odds, true odds and value odds, odds movement and market volume. this time, i am going in with a plan and i intend to stick to it with discipline. i have put the past losses behind me and took it as a hard lesson learnt. now, any small profit that i can make from this hobby will be enough for me, as long as i am not losing. any comments? or any bros that are also satisfied with making small profit from football betting? | I will develope my betting accpunt bankroll for my players and as a investor, no harm done and the with the profit you are making considered very significant and good , wish u all the best for the road ahead. Cheers. Wasted you already have a clan else would invite u to join my clan as an investment tipster ... :(
