Partypooper,

If you need to double your bets to create a reasonable income, I would suggest not doing so.
Let me explain....
You would be far better finding something that gives you more action, twice as many bets, rather than just doubling your exposure.
Of course, it must be something stable and proven.

There are many advantages to this
1.Your results are less likely to have temporary aggressive peaks and troughs denting confidence (although you will still have good and bad days)
2. The impact of adverse results will be less to the overall outcome on the day or week.
3. You probably won't be so nervous as just doubling your bets.
4. If you don't have confidence in anything other than what's proven to yourself over the last 5 years, and I can understand this, then don't just double your bets straight away, use percentage of bank (not reducing) until you are betting double or more, this will also build confidence.
I would be worried about the effect of higher bets on your returns.

If you need assistance you know my email, I have a place method that breaks even at TAB prices, but you do need to watch the markets, rather than place all bets in advance.
