Bankroll Management​

Content curated from and authored by Clear Data Sports

Identifying winning teams and value in potential wagers is important to any winning sports betting strategy. But the successful sports bettors also understand the value of managing your bankroll.

You see a game you like, so you bet a lot. Conversely, if there is a game you’re less sure about, you bet less.

Psychologically this makes sense to you. Why not go bigger for the better bet?

The reason is simple: this kind of betting is not sustainable long-term, and it will eventually wipe out your bankroll.

Making Bankroll Strategies Work

The principles behind sports betting bankroll strategies are less about sports and more about good financial sense. Managing your capital and putting it to use for the best long-term return on your investment is the goal.

And be it sports betting, the stock market, or real estate, you always need to look at the big picture.

Just like with any investment, you should never risk money that you can’t afford to lose. You wouldn’t buy a property that required a complete loss of fluidity. You should never do the same with sports betting.

Strategize in how you pick winners and strategize in how you allocate your wager amounts.
