BANKROLL MANAGEMENT TIPS:

  • Never bet more than 5% of your bankroll on a single bet
  • Fractional Kelly (25-50%) reduces variance while maintaining edge
  • Only bet when you have a positive expected value (+EV)
  • Recalculate bet sizes as your bankroll changes
  • Track all bets to refine your win probability estimates

Understanding Betting Strategies

Fractional Kelly (Recommended)

Uses a fraction of the full Kelly Criterion (typically 25-50%) to reduce variance while still capitalizing on your edge. This is the sweet spot for most bettors.

BEST FOR: Most serious bettors who want consistent growth with lower volatility

Full Kelly

Bets the full Kelly percentage for maximum long-term growth. Can be very aggressive and lead to large swings. Requires accurate probability estimates.

WARNING: High variance. Only for experienced bettors with proven edge

Fixed Unit

Bet the same unit size (1-3% of bankroll) on every bet regardless of perceived edge. Simple and conservative approach.

BEST FOR: Beginners or those who prefer simplicity and consistency

Percentage-Based

Always bet a fixed percentage of your current bankroll. Automatically adjusts bet size as your bankroll grows or shrinks.

BEST FOR: Those who want automatic adjustment without complex calculations
