Bankroll Management Strategies
Set a Monthly Limit
Never bet more than you can afford to lose - treat it as entertainment
Tip: Start with R100-R500 per month depending on income
Use Unit Betting
Bet the same amount (1-5% of bankroll) regardless of confidence
Tip: If bankroll is R1000, bet R10-R50 per selection
Track All Bets
Keep records of wins, losses, and overall performance
Tip: Use spreadsheet or betting app to monitor progress
Lower Stakes, Higher Volume
Make more smaller bets rather than fewer large ones
Tip: Better to place 10 x R10 bets than 1 x R100 bet
