A good day yesterday. Dallas under 205 was a winner by almost 20 pts! That brings us to our highest percentage gain yet. 16.26% on 207 bets.

Things have been great..but let me discuss a second about draw down..or variance. Being a poker player it is generally accepted that your bankroll should be at least 300 big bets. Or if your playing 100-200 holdem ..60,000 to play day in and day out. The reason assuming you have a positive expectation in the game is variance or what some people call "running bad".

The same is true for sports betting. Even if you have a positive expectation variance will still require certain bankroll requirements.

So far we have had almost 0 draw down..everything has been pretty much straight up. But reality what it is dont get carried away with this and be conservative, expect ..anticipate a draw down and be prepared.

Good Luck!

Nice call on Toronto Rick. Miami is in big trouble this year.
