Bankroll Management for Indian Bettors

Most accounts fail on staking, not on prediction. A bankroll plan is the difference between a hobby you control and one that controls you.

Define the bankroll

Your bankroll is money you have already decided you can lose entirely. It is never rent, EMI, school fees or borrowed money.

Set one unit at one to two per cent of the bankroll and keep it constant. Raising the unit after a loss is the fastest way to empty an account.

Choose a loss figure at which you stop for the day and a profit figure at which you withdraw. Write both down before you start.

Record every bet, its price and its result. Patterns you cannot feel become obvious in a spreadsheet after a month.

Large enough that a single unit feels insignificant, and small enough that losing it changes nothing in your life.

Only by recalculating the unit against the new bankroll, never by doubling on instinct.
