Unit Size Calculator
Calculate your optimal betting unit size based on bankroll. Proper bankroll management is key to long-term success.
Why Unit Betting Matters
Professional bettors use units instead of dollar amounts to maintain consistent bankroll management. A unit is typically 1-3% of your total bankroll. This approach helps you survive losing streaks and maximize gains during winning streaks without risking your entire bankroll.
Bankroll Management Rules
- 1% units: Most conservative, best for beginners or large bankrolls
- 2% units: Balanced approach for experienced bettors
- 3% units: More aggressive, higher risk/reward
- Never exceed 5% on a single bet regardless of confidence
