How to use proper money management:

How to use proper money management
by Jim Campbell of Footballforecastor.com

I recommend wagering NO MORE than 5% of your bankroll on any one game, period. Most of your wagers should be within the 2% to 3% range, I have found that the very best way to protect your bankroll is to incrementally raise or lower the amount that you will wager by "Percentage of Bankroll".

For example, lets say that you have a starting Bankroll of $5000, this should be an amount that is set aside and dedicated to nothing else but sports wagering, don't fall into the trap of the ordinary "Joe Public" type of gambler that does not start the season with a "Dedicated Starting Bankroll" and instead find themselves dipping into their mortgage or rent payment or car payment and before long winds up playing with "Scared Money" because they know that they can not afford to lose, this type of gambler usually ends up digging a hole for themselves that they can not climb out of!!

When utilizing the "Percentage of Bankroll" concept that I mentioned, a top play selection would be 5% of your starting bankroll, in our example let's say its $5000, thus 5% of $5000 is $250.00, a medium play would be 3% of your starting bankroll, but most plays should fall into the "Regular" or small selection status of only 1% or 2% of your starting bankroll.

Each week your starting Bankroll would be different because of how you did the previous week , therefore, each week your wagering amounts which are based on "Percentage of Bankroll" would be different.

In closing I would recommend either using a "Flat Betting" system which means that you wager the same amount on each contest but is still based on percentage of bankroll and self adjusts each week based on your new starting bankroll.

Or use the incremental system of 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, with the vast majority of your wagers falling into the 1% or 2% range to wager different amounts on different games, but keep in mind that the top wager is still only 5% of your bankroll, remember this simple rule of thumb and it will keep you out of trouble my friend!!

Using either system as I have outlined will keep your bankroll safe and sound over the ups and downs of a long season.

Our goal here at www.footballforecastor.com is to hit the 60% win mark year in and year out with our NFL and college football selections, in the big picture few handicappers are able to achieve this lofty goal on a consistent basis. I shake my head in wonderment on how they get away with such outrageous claims when I see the Saturday morning scam-you-cappers on TV or in the advertisements listed in the USA Today newspaper touting win percentages of 75% or 80% over the course of a season.

The simple truth is that only the very best handicappers consistently produce seasonal results that fall within the 55% to 60% range much like we do here at footballforecastor.com year in and year out, my advise to all clients is to use extreme discipline in the amount of games you wager on each week, you must also adhere to good money management techniques in order to get through the peaks and valleys of a long season.
