Handling the losses is part of the game. If you can't handle them, you're pretty much in the wrong business.

How bad did he do? I went 3-14 in week 3 of college football. 3 weeks later I am back in black. Weird things happens betting on sports.

They're not even weird, it's just variance, we've all gone through huge swings in both directions. Unless you're only playing small volume, high edge stuff like props, losing streaks are inevitable.

I usually have a play on just about every game on the board in one way or another. Winning and losing streaks happen, it's just variance. When I look through my ledger of games played I have many large winning streaks and losing streaks. What matters is how it turns out over thousands of bets.

Go through any baseball team this past season that won 90 - 100 games. That is a 55% to 61% win pct. Look at their season log and I'm sure you will find a bad run in there for each team. All good handicappers and good teams, given enough plays, go through a bad steak. It's just that. The question is do you have good enough money management to make it through the bad streak or do you wipe yourself out because you are overbetting or chasing.

In the end if you are not disciplined even for those above the mendoza line you will lose. For those below subscribe to a good tout:D

Getting through the losing streaks with the "Least Damage" deterines how successfull you will be? I may not make a bet for a WEEK or so when I hit the wall this year???
