Appreciate the positive feedback regarding my plays and glad to see we'll be on the same side with the TB/Phil teaser.

As you can see from my history since joining the RX, I'm very selective with my plays. In 17 days, I've only posted 22 plays. I will be posting in each forum as a play dictates. As the hoops season gets into full swing, I will be posting more in the NCAAB as well as the NBA.

Today I will have plays in college hoops for sure. Not certain about the NBA yet.

Good luck to you today and throughout the sporting seasons.

ted, im an everyday player, who strives to hit 58-60% winners (while flat betting).. simply building Bankroll and raising the flat bet.. has worked quite well as of late, documented 74-47 YTD NBA record.. good luck to you as well TED, i wont call you oldman,, my mentor (who has since passed) was about 70yrs old, when i started back in 1986, and i never called him oldman..

Targeting 58-60% winners is an excellent goal. If you can achieve this over the long haul, your bankroll will grow nicely, particularly as you flat bet off a rising bankroll.

It's OK to call me oldman. I am 55 years old and have been capping for over 30 years. Appreciate your respect very much.

My money management technique is to have a separate bankroll for each sport, for each season. I rate my plays from 1*-5* and likewise those are equivalent to 1%-5% of my bankroll. As the bankroll increases or deceases, so does the wager. You don't need to hit 58-60% to show a healthy return. If you can win between 55-57%, you can do quite well. A typical season for me is to win approximately 56%, but with the money management technique and relatively consistent wins and losses, the average return on my bankroll is around 80+% by the end of the season. We can discuss this further sometime if you wish and I can provide you and example season.

ted, i also have a separate bankroll for each sport.. 1-1 on the day for me, dropped the tb teaser, now waiting on the nba.. we can discuss anything that you like,, i have a broker friend who is 64yrs old, he wagers on sports also.. been killing the market the last few weeks..

We dropped the teaser but even with the 4 interceptions in the first half almost pulled it out.

I'm 2-1 in college hoops so far with Stanford winning by 12 at half and California and Auburn still to come.

I also placed my first 3* NBA play on Minnesota. Currently up 54-31 at the half.

On a personal note. I retired at the age of 50 after a successful 28 year career and I have been successfully invested in the market since the late 70's. The growth in the 90's was the final piece of the puzzle to allow me to retire. Just felt like sharing a little information about myself with you.
