Playing many games or few?

[Eagle01]

I was just wondering about the pros and cons of putting a little $$ on a lot of games, or just bet a few games and increase the $$. Any thoughts/opinions?

a lot of games will kill u with the juice...better to take your top few and play them

Few

[Chris46139]

Definitely fewer for me, but I don't like to put all my eggs in one basket either. Avg NFL plays for me would be 4 or 5. MLB daily I usually play 2,3 or 4 depending on what I like

1-3 plays max per day IMO

haha, figured i should drop in and gove my 2 pesos.

i agree with everyone here; however i am more propense to taking a more games for less money.
This is because of a few reasons.
- I am an action junkie lol
-I have a hard time dropping games i like
-I am fairly new at capping games and have a hard time trusting myself with just a few games. At least my first season in baseball, i was saved many times by my small plays when my large plays missed. On the other hand i also had some days when my large plays hit but gave it back by going 50/50 on my smaller plays. However i had lot of action and fun.
I have been getting better at identifying the spots where i just suck (totals in baseball always killed me); and try not to play them, but again. i love the action so didnt mind putting a small amont on totals.

i say track your results,and see if your small plays would hurt you or help you. And go from there...

Fewer games bro.

Its always better to spend the time you have to cap on looking at fewer games, even if annalyzing fewer means that you end up only beting one or even not any at all.

This however, has not effect on the amount you should be betting on games. If before you were puting 30% of your Bank Roll out on 10 games it does not mean that if you cut down to one game you should still be puting 30% of your BR out that day.

Never ignore BR management, I did at the begining of this football season and never will again. Since managing it I have done a hell of a lot better.

fewer games, just play the games you have an edge in.

not only fewer games, but try to pick them in groups of 1, 3 or 5 as well.

Why? it's a lot easier to go 1-0 than 2-0, a lot easier to go 2-1 than 3-1, etc.

If you really like 2 games, it takes 100% to turn a profit or if 4 games, you have to hit 75% to turn a profit. If you really like 3 games, 67% is all you need & out of 5 games, 60% will turn a profit. I make an actual effort to pick odd # games & if I have to force a play to turn 4 plays into 5, then I look into dropping a play to get my 3 strongest instead.

I won this season's Team MLB Contest & among everyone in the top 10, I had the fewest plays & still finished far ahead of the field. Not bragging, but just a solid example that few plays doesn't necessarily = less winnings. You can still earn higher net earnings just by having an increased win %.

the better capper you are the better advantage you should have over the long run playing more games. if u think u have an edge, bet it.. if not leave it alone.. i know someone who plays 15-30 games a weekend in football and is succesful..
