Introduction
Whether you're placing bets on cricket, football, or exploring casino games on 10Sports, one thing remains true: bankroll management is key. Without clear betting limits and a set budget, even the most experienced bettors can lose control.
In this blog, we’ll show you how to create a solid betting plan, set realistic limits, and develop the discipline needed to stick to your budget—so you can enjoy betting without regrets.
Why Setting Limits Matters
Betting without a limit is like driving without brakes. You might feel in control—until you're not. Having predefined boundaries helps you:
Avoid emotional or impulsive betting
Prevent chasing losses
Keep betting fun and stress-free
Manage your overall finances better
Step-by-Step: How to Set a Betting Budget
Decide How Much You Can Afford to Lose
This should be disposable income—money that won’t affect your bills, rent, savings, or daily needs.
10Sports Tip: Think of your betting budget like entertainment money (like going to a movie or dinner).
Set Weekly or Monthly Limits
Break your budget into smaller periods to stay consistent. For example:
₹2,000/month = ₹500/week
Why it helps: Smaller chunks help you track better and avoid overspending early in the month.
Use Betting Units
Decide on a fixed “unit” size for your bets (e.g., ₹100 per bet). This makes it easier to calculate wins/losses and control stakes.
Example: If your budget is ₹2,000, don’t bet more than 5% (₹100) on a single outcome.
Tools to Help You Stick to Limits

Signs You’re Overspending
If you notice any of these, it may be time to pause and reset:
You're increasing your stakes after a loss
You’re using savings or borrowing money to bet
You're hiding betting activity from family or friends
You're feeling stress, guilt, or anxiety about betting
Remember: It's okay to walk away. Betting should feel fun, not overwhelming.
Pro Tips to Stay in Control
Track Every Bet: Use a spreadsheet or notebook to monitor your spending
Avoid Betting When Emotional: Stress leads to poor decisions
Never Chase Losses: Stick to your limits, win or lose
Celebrate Wins—Modestly: Don’t increase stakes just because you’re on a winning streak
Take Breaks: Regular pauses help keep your perspective clear
