How to Handle Winning and Losing Streaks

It is inevitable that even the best handicappers will have winning and losing streaks. They will also have great months, average months and below average months.
Accept this as reality if you are a sports bettor.

The way to handle the ups and downs of your wagering is to maintain strict discipline with your money management. If you do that and have a solid foundation that leads to making good risk/reward bets then you will be OK .

Don't get too high on the winning streaks or too low on the losing streaks. Always maintain an even keel.

By example, the New York Yankees have the best record in baseball at 47-28. Yet, they have gone through two three game losing streaks and one four game losing streak this season.

Just take things in stride. What counts is not the day to day fluctuations, but rather how you do over the course of a month or year.
