The first thing to do is divide your bankroll between live betting and pre-match bets. Treat live funds as flexible since the pace is faster, and pre-match as planned for careful decision-making. Recording every stake, odds, and outcome allows you to monitor performance without guessing. I found that visualizing totals for each segment helped me avoid overspending and maintain mental clarity. Keeping separate logs for different bet types also highlights which strategies work best. This discipline prevents impulsive decisions that often happen when losses in one area spill into the other.
