Default Re: Expected variance in sports betting?

I do not suggest lowering your bets...this just increases the number of bets you will now need to win to get back to where you started.
If your bankroll is set in stone (it can not be supplemented), then I would suggest 1%. I would keep that as my unit until my bankroll increased by 25% before adjusting to a new unit. I wouldn't ever decrease my unit. If you lose an entire bankroll from betting 1% units, you are not going to make it no matter what you do.
Oh, and if you can supplement your income, I think you would be safe with 2% bets, but no higher.
