It all comes down to one thing:

If he bet ONE or at most two games a weekend, I’d cheer him on.
But this volume is the bane of a bettor.
The one thing, I repeat, the ONE thing the books want is for you to bet and bet and bet some more. And then bet again. Why? VOLUME is their moneymaker and LC is a classic volume bettor.
They juice you on all your wins.
They make you chase your losses.
They get you so overly excited about lines, you are checking them on your phone every 15 minutes every day, for even a half point movement.
Then have you. You have a disease. Unless you have it under control.
Diversification for volume’s sake is not the solution for a winning gambler. Some people do it. It’s very very few.
I’m trying to help someone here and I’m being made into a villain.
You will see: Week 16 LC will have fewer units than he has today. I don’t even know what he’s up. That will be in the next thread. I’ll keep a note of it. LC has honest accounting (like myself but my record became a paparazzi show so I leave it out now).
And the end result will be this:
11 WEEKS of capping to LOSE money.
And worst of all, to be attacked left and right for all the people who boarded the money ship after it set sail and sunk.
I’m saving him money. I’ve been here a dozen years. These hot starts sputter out and die. For volume bettors IT DOES NOT LAST.
You’ll see. Week 16 will be fewer units than the amount he has today.
GL LC. Just trying to help. I’ll say no more.
No good deed goes unpunished.
The book does not juice you on wins only losses. It is the same juice per game regardless of how many games you play.
If you can win with fewer bets beating the juice you can do it on more bets as long as your info is very solid and your not making plays just to make plays but have very solid info to make those plays.
And not only that but playing more games allows one to win a lower % and make more money because of volume.
A guy winning 60 % could easily win more money then a guy winning 70% by doing nothing more then playing far more games.
