Money Management Rules

Rules to maximize gains and minimize losses

1. One Unit is a set percentage of the available bankroll. A one unit standard wager will be set at 2% of the bankroll. (i.e.: $100 unit on a $5000 bankroll)

2. The maximum single wager amount for one game is 8% of the available bankroll. This is to attempt to keep bankroll fluctuations to a minimal. (i.e: $400 maximum on a $5000 bankroll)

3. Limit parlays and teaser to an absolute minimum. These wagers offer lucrative rewards but are very difficult to hit. Parlays greater than 3 teams should not risk less and not more than one betting unit.

4. The betting unit should only be adjusted when there is a 10% change in the available bankroll. This is the minimum requirement to adjust the betting unit but good judgment should be used.

5. The maximum pending wager at any time is 14% of the bankroll. (i.e: $700.00 maximum pending on a $5000.00 bankroll).

6. Avoid the juice. Don’t have your bankroll get chopped down by paying simply to place the wager. Avoid bets where the value is simply not there. When possible search different sportbooks for the best lines [Pinnacle, Olympic, ect.].

7. …On the other hand, look for the underdog. Money line and spreads are based on public betting perceptions and sometimes this can be exploited. Look for value in good underdogs to turn one betting unit into two½ units.

8. Golden rule: Avoiding chasing and the most important thing to realize is that there are sporting events everyday to exploit. Focus on weekly returns. Try to minimize risky investments.
