That's good advice Shaun, so long as there is a confidence that the losing run is only temporary. I've been doing similar for many years now, just drawing down a 'wage' each fortnight (in my case) irrespective of how I've gone on the punt in the preceding period. Punters really need to think long-term but most appear to take a short-term view - the 'get-out stakes' mentatlity. |
