Notes: I need to make some money. Bad. I'm starting to hate work with a passion. Hopefully, I can learn from what happened in 2008 on Paper Chaser and apply it to 2009. I gotta make the adjustments and learn from the mistakes, especially after donating $191.00. That's not much but in the end, it's still money. Hopefully, it was a good investment used to extract these points:

1. My record was under .500 but this was with betting games I don't even know anything about, including run lines for baseball (which are always rough on the odds).
New plan: Only bet teams you have knowledge on. It is okay to not bet everyday hah.
2. I was betting too small when I was rolling good.
New plan: Bet big during hot streaks, lower stakes when running cold.
3. I started making a lot of picks per day when the bankroll started rising.
New plan: Discipline and bankroll management improvement.
4. I lost $191.00.
New plan: Losing is not an option. Make some money. Real Money.
