Thanks. Are you an average 3 unit bettor, and what % of your roll is a unit?

the first bet was 2 units, second was 4. this one is 4 units. A unit is 10% of my roll (sort off, kinda blurred with my poker BR)

GO RIDERS!

remember Saskatchewan is in a playoff race, while Montreal isn't - so that might be important

plus playing the Riders at home isn't an easy task

You're betting 40% of your roll on a sport you never heard of until two weeks ago? I'm guessing you're about to become familiar with the word BUSTO.

Wow. So if you win this next play, you'll have doubled your bankroll on 3 plays?

And your standard is to bet 20-40% of your roll? Please keep the picks/record coming, but perhaps think about reducing your bet size.

For what it's worth, I don't like the play. It is hard to beat the same team twice in a row in the CFL. Saskatchewan is at home also. You can get Montreal as a pick at Mansion right now if you like them. I am passing the side on that game. Consider the under 52.......it just snowed a little up here and it's frickin cold and windy.

I have a minor bone to pick here, and I see it all the time.
It's the "It's hard to beat a team X amount of times in a row, or it's hard to sweep a double header", etc.

This is true BEFORE any games are played. It's a heck of a lot easier to beat a team twice in a row if you've already won one.

If you extrapolate the logic, "I'm betting on so and so vs. so and so because they have lost 29 in a row to them, and it's really hard to beat a team 30 in a row."

Sensitive much? Look, if it's an amount that don't mind gambooling with and that you can easily replace, don't worry about it, do what you like. If you'd be concerned about losing your roll, then take the suggestion to lower your bet size.
