    Student Part Time Job, time to make some side cash!!!

    Let's hope so at least. Every thread I've started as gone under with me losing lots of money, but the New Year is just underway so let's try to break this curse! I'm going to be using the Kelly Criterion strategy and use 5% of my roll for each bet. Starting bankroll is €200. My dream is to just be a professional sports bettor/poker pro so let's get started!

    Fade or follow

    Baylor +2 -110 €11 to win 10

    West Virginia -4 -105 €10.5 to win 10

    Alabama +2 -105 €10.5 to win 10

    If you like Michigan State then pound Michigan State. You build your bankroll and rep now, then go Kelly once you're established. Otherwise we'll be waiting until 2020 before you got something to show.

    I thought Kelly Criterion was basing your bet size on your calculated edge

    Anyone making $10 bets should put away the calculators and formulas and start swinging for the fence.

    Also, asking for extra shifts at KFC is a solid plan B.

    So Gostkowski costs the Pats that game, unfortunate. I don't think Manning is winning the Superbowl though, although with 2 weeks to prepare it would be hard to bet against him.

    Washington +4 $11 to win 10

    Cardinals +3 $10 to win 10

    Virginia -10 $11 to win 10.47
