Before you place any bet on your favorite offshore sportsbook, you must have a strategy, one that you treat like an investment. There are two questions you must ask yourself before you gamble.

1) How much you want to win? 2) How much you're willing to lose?

There is no guaranteed way of winning, but if you can be smart about your investment, you can certainly reduce risk and maximize return. Set a reasonable target to reach using the amount you're willing to risk, and don't get greedy after you win or lose.

The biggest problems with gamblers are that they don't quit when they're up and will continue playing when they're down. This is the biggest mistake most gamblers make. And to be a real winner, you must not fall into this same trap. So before you gamble, keep in mind how much you want to win, and how much you can afford to lose. And stick with these numbers, once you reach it, cash in.

So what is a reasonable target? This really depends on how much you want to win and how much you're o nline sports betting each game. If you start off with $200 and want to win $2000 by playing $5 a game, then I would say this is not a reasonable target. You must also understand the chances of winning for each game in order for you to set a reasonable target.

I know this may sound a little vague at the moment, but I will go in depth about different strategies for most of the popular games in my later issues. But for now you must learn to minimize risk and maximize return. The rule of thumb to follow is to have return on investment ratio of 2:1. So if you're willing to lose $100, then set a target to quit when you're up $200. Bet at an amount so that it takes you a maximum of 20 wins to reach the target. And when you're down, always leave at least half of what you now have to gamble. This way, it takes a lot of games for you to actually go down to $0. Never go crazy and just bet everything at once, you'll find that if you do that often enough, you'll always end up losing. Why? Well, if you're down to $50 now, and you bet it all, you may win and will probably keep online sports betting, but if you lose, then it is game over. The trick to never lose is to always leave some money for back up

Favirote President
By: Michael | 11-07-2008
What is your favirote president. Mine is John Kennedy  

Thinking about not voting?????
By: fredst | 11-07-2008
This is the simplest, most understandable and truest explanation of the woes of the nation and who caused them, as well as how to cure them. This should be sent to every person in the U.S. , including the '545'  545 People  By Charlie Reese --  Orlando Sentinel Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, we have deficits? Have you ever wondered why, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, we have inflation and high taxes?You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does. You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does. You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does. You and I don't control monetary policy, The Federal Reserve Bank does.One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president and nine Supreme Court justices - 545 human beings out of the 300 million - are directly, legally, morally and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered but private central bank.I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman or a president to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.The president can only propose a budget.. He cannot force the Congress to accept it. The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.Who is the speaker of the House? She is the leader of the majority party. She and fellow House members, not the president, can approve any budget they want. If the president vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto  if they agree to.It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can not replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts - of incompetence and irresponsibility.I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people.When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair. If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.If the Marines are in IRAQ , it's because they want them in IRAQIf they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way. There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like 'the economy,' 'inflation' or 'politics' that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power. They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses - provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees. We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!   Charlie Reese is a former columnist of the Orlando Sentinel   And keep in mind this congress only worked 93 days last year.  The shortest season in history and at a time that we are at war and the economy is in the tank.  Vote early and vote often.  Lets clean house and start over!  If you don't vote, don't bitch !!!Personally I'm dreading this election. I don't like, or trust, either candidate...but I'm gonna vote. I'll vote for the one I dislike the least and trust the most. Then I'm gonna get LOTS more involved with local politics...thats where we can all start.This country....OUR country...is broken. WE must fix it. Please vote!
