What type of bankroll should I set for the upcoming NFL and College Season? I am a small unit player, and very rarely bet over $100 per game. Should I keep the bankrolls seperate, and what should they consist of? Any help will be great!

THANKS
PYRO!

Would suggest you go with a simple bankroll approach which is that no bet should be more then 1% of the bankroll. Sounds like a $100 wager is a rarity, so multiply the normal size play times 100 and that should be your bankroll, i.e $25/play times 100 equals a $2500 bankroll.

As for keeping them separate, that would depend on how capable you are in each. If you are about the same, keep one bankroll. If you are better at one then the other, split them. Best of luck this football season.

Disagree. There is no reason to split your bankroll. If you aren't confident in your bets of one sport and don't want any losses from it to outweight the profits of your other sports then you should bet less on it or not at all.

If you are using a strict unit system, Ted's advice is pretty solid, especialy when in "a learing" curve of your lesser sports. I would not hesitate to bet sports you do not know well, as some of these may be very profitable, but start small and use caution when you are limited in info.:103631605

Well that's the thing, if you're new to the sports or just not confident then there is no reason to split the BR, just bet less.

Splitting a bankroll is really just lowering the unit size (eg split BR into two and you're betting half as much). The differences are that a split BR copes better than a single if one sport does horribly and that if you are profitable overall then single will achieve better growth (since it compounds).

NFL bankroll, are you kidding me?
Follow that College Football Forum here and you can Forget the NFL. You will have more than enough action on Wenesday through Saturday.
NFL was good to the chalkers last year, but that was just last year, but in the NFL WHO really knows what is what.

I'm with insiders...forget the NFL brother...stick with NCAA...start with lighter plays and end with lighter plays, but make a ton in the middle...

Many people had Big seasons last year in the CFB, lots of winners in the forum.
If you Must play the NFL Ace Ace is the best around here, IMHO !
