first of all thanks Fishhead, but it is only April 21st, lets see where i am in on September 21st.

My goal for the whole year was 20 units. Do I stop? Am I still happy if I end up 20 units ahead for the year October 1st?

The next problem is I have only been betting 1 unit a game. I know if I up my unit size (which I may do after hoops is over) will all my hard work/results go down the drain? Did I have my hot streak at the beginning of the year and there will be no more?

Like I said in a earlier thread to anyone that has noticed, don't folow me, follow the proven posters on here. They are the experts not me. All I am doing is putting in good old fashion hard work, everyday and hope that is enough to give me a small edge. We shall see.

Dont stop Ice. Just because you had a 20 unit goal does not mean you have to quit now.

Good luck with the rest of the season.

Don't worry about the streak, you'll psyche yourself out. Sometimes streaks can last for years. Ride it while you can, and we'll all jump aboard!:thumbsup2:

That's what makes his record so remarkable. Most here play from 3-5 units quite a bit, touts and other wannabe's play games for even more because they know the suckers won't even notice, they'll just notice how many units someone "won" at the end of the year. Based on 1 unit plays only, being up over 33 units right now is one of the more impressive things I have ever seen.

I am up just over 8 units this year and happy as a pig in slop, can't imagine being up another 25 units right now. Great work Iceman.

Thanks for all the kind words. Most of the guys in this thread I follow and look at their plays EVERYDAY. You guys have all helped me in alot of ways in the past and have also given me MUCH NEEDED confidence that you can beat this game (gambling) and beleive me I was sorely lacking in that department after the NFL.

There is nothing I enjoy more in this world (sad but true) than the everyday battles of sports wagering and I know ALL of you guys feel the same way as myself. I know that being successfull at this consumes all of us. I wish the best for all of you the rest of the baseball season (but please finish behind me in the BETJAM contest:lolBIG: ). Good luck:thumbsup2:

Very true. For playing a flat 1 unit per game, that's a damn impressive record!!!

WOW from +33.79 to now -8.00 with a 5-15 record sinse. This sounds like a Big dose of Chalks? Yes, NO? How is this possible betting flat? Surely this is a mistake?

NO, god no. I went from +33 units to +25 units on the year ( a loss of 8 units in 4 days).

Still up on the year and VERY happy with my YTD results.

Just trying to do something to "reverse the curse":missingte

I only bet 1 UNIT a game. I wouldn't have the heart to lose that much that fast:pucking: . Slow and steady grind.
