Many fractional Kelly players go from 1-weight to as high as 3-weight when they feel very confident about a play. This usually puts them closer, not further away, from optimal bankroll growth. Nobody here is advocating you should do 8x weight, 16x weight, etc... NONE of the plays in Steve's Pregame logs have weights beyond 4x.
This is not true, Andy.
From the Pregame video:
Teddy Covers: “Fezzik has a prop bet that you can make in every remaining NBA finals game.”
Fezzik: “This is going to be controversial here, the idiot Martingale system… I am going to Martingale this series where I am going to go ahead and bet it 1-unit under on this prop in game 3, if I lose I will bet 2-units on the under in game 4 and continue until I win, which I am extremely confident won’t take long.
