I will use this thread to express the highs and lows of go big or go home gambling.
For the past 2 weeks I have been making consistent profit by using good money management, good research and game selection as well as not overdoing it. Betting one or 2 games or having one or 2 bets on any given race card and stopping - not numerous games for prolonged lenths of time.
Today I deviated from this , started making big bets out of my outside of my bank rolls limits on a UK cards I hadn't researched - thus the losses felt more painful and fucked with my betting objectivity and made me wanna chase. I resisted their luckily.
So today was the first bad losing day in 2 weeks.
Things I did wrong:
Bet uninformed, followed commentators tips blindly, bet steeple chases, poor money management.
Lost the most betting steeple chases (races with jumps and often green horses) I have been told to avoid them unless I like losing money and not watching my bet sizes.
What I learned: I will only carry on being profitable if I stick to what I know works however tempting it may be to go find constant action (to chase the rush and use gambling like a drug essentially) instead of waiting for one or 2 specific events and treating them objectively with no emotion win or lose bet size is important there, if your bet sizes are within your bankroll, losing days won't hit you so hard emotionally and make you do stupid things like chasing losses with ever increasing bets that at the time seem like viable options to rectify the situation - but only digs you deeper .
My over/under soccer goal betting (spanish la liga today - often a lot of value to be found in goal betting here , bookies often are way too generous here (la liga)with their odds) . That helped mitigate the losses of the Uk steeple chases.
Net profit or loss for the day in usd's: - $86. But it coulda been worse with my track record.
Lets see how this goes. Will update here from time to time.
Any and all horse racing and non-american (am pretty clueless with american sports) sports betting is encouraged ITT too.
PEACE!
