What Does ‘Holding Your Own’ Mean in Sports Betting?

This is a simple phrase that’s more about your overall performance than a specific type of bet.

“Holding your own” means you are breaking even.

You’re not on a hot streak making a ton of money, but you’re not on a losing streak either. You’re basically winning just enough to cover all your losses. If you started the week with $100 in your account and you still have $100 at the end of the week, you’ve been “holding your own.”

It’s the very definition of a “no harm, no foul” run of bets.
