Question How much is 1* or 1 unit for you???

Simple question. Not starting fights or an argument.

For me 1* = standard $110 to win $100 or adjusted according to the vig like -115, etc...

Used to be $500 but in the last year and a half I have realized it was too much and I spent too much time capping/looking at games. Funny, as my income went up, units amount went down.

Now $100 is standard unit and I rarely bet more than $500 on a game.

calling out people is against the rules here...

As a seasoned member of CM you should know this by now.

Please refrain from future posts of this nature.

This is your last warning
