What is the best strategy for Double or Nothing

[TerpZone]

I get into the money around 60% of the time.

you're not really making any money if you're only winning at a 60% clip

why not?
If I win 51% of my games I would be making money in the long run. U dont agree with me?

You're paying, generally, a 10-15% rake per game.

For arguments sake, lets say 10%.

If you win 60 of 100 $5+.50 games, you will have won (60*4.50)=270 while losing (40*5.50)=220

$50 profit rather than the $100 profit you assume.

U are right, I forgot about the rake. But as u showed 60% still on the proffit line.
So I guess I need to win more.lol.

that's if you can keep up a 60% clip through 100 games at a 10% rake.

Not an easy task.
But somedays I win iven more than 60% easy.
But I normaly dont play more than 5 games per day.
Right now I play the 10 double or nothing with a bankroll of 340$ on Stars.
