    My story and a play for Thursday Night Football
    Hey SBR forum, I'm not much of a writer but I'll give it a go so the forum can get a little bit of insight on how I got to this point.

    Trying to become a professional gambler is a new endeavor that I've undertaken, for the longest time I thought academia and the traditional lifestyle that we all seek at one point was my way to happiness.

    Man was I wrong,

    After getting my major in International Business from the Monterrey Institute of Technology in Northern Mexico in 2008 I became dissatisfied with life.

    After dumping an Internship at the World Bank offices in New York City I traveled the world, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos with a stop at Cuba this last summer to recharge my batteries and to think about my next move.

    This is when gambling comes in.

    Because of a medium sized inheritance I was left with and a couple thousand dollars I've procured over menial jobs I've had over the years I've been able to amass enough money for overhead and regular expenditures in Las Vegas for at least six months. This plus a 20,000 dollar bankroll will get me kick started in my search of becoming a professional gambler.


    I want to help you guys make some money and help myself. My strong point has always been NFL football so here goes my first bet.


    Rams +3 1,000 dollars

          He didn't post an analysis on the game so how do you figure the strategy is ****** up? This forum is for like-minded individuals to come together and discuss betting strategy and picks. Keep the negativity to yourself.

                            Haha I get it, you guys think you are hot shit because you've been in SBR for a while. Valid point.

                            Remember though that All Glory is Fleeting

                              you're getting jumped on because you're lying your ass off and will be gone soon anyway. not because anyone thinks they're 'hot shit'

                                let me get this straight.

                                you threw away some sort of banking internship in nyc to go to cambodia and thailand, got your sac rubbed a few times and figured out the meaning of life was to gamble away your inheritance and life savings in vegas on NFL point spreads without any prior professional handicapping experience?


                                2dabank is spot on. you're an idiot - if you are for real. go back to a normal day job before u resort to drugs and end up in a white room by yoruself ---because thats what happens to most who try to do what youre doing.

                                  Good luck. Real tough game to cap, I could argue either side. Rams 0-3 ATS, run defense destroyed by Boys last week. Bradford can sling it but he was roughed up last week. I believe he was sacked 6 times. Rams miss Steven Jackson. Their rush attack is basically non-existent.

                                  49ers arguably missing two best defensive players. If Willis plays, he's nicked up. Kap misses his top receiving target Crabtree. Boy what a fall from grace for that guy. Even Gore pissed he's not getting touches.

                                  I don't have a strong feeling on either side. Slight lean towards Niners at this point. Looks like it will be small wager for entertainment purposes for me. Both sides combined 1-5 ATS and not to be trusted with any significant amount of my dollars.

                                  What's your angle on the game and why do you like the Rams?

                                  Prime time games tough to cap, # sharp. Your best chance of making money in football is zeroing in on a conference or two in college. Know the teams inside and out. Vegas has to hang a # on a lot of games on Saturdays.

                                    You will jump on soon enough when I start winning. I'm lying because my life has been pretty interesting?

                                    You can follow me or fade me, I'm not leaving any time soon.

                                      It was a shitty unpaid internship. It made me realize some stuff on how the World Bank and International Finance works though.

                                        If your bankroll is 20k and you have other money to fall back and live off of then betting 1k is not as bad as these guys are making it sound like. The most important things you'll need to master this game are confidence, consistency, perseverance, discipline, and a switch to turn your ego on and off. Imagine you are the best handicapper in the world; you're hitting %67; you can easily drop 3 games in a row. The main thing is to be able to take those losses and understand you made the right bets even though you lost. I wish you the best, it seems we are on the same boat. As for Thursday I can only hope you win, because we are on the same side.

                                          why would anyone fade or follow? i mean you spent 10 min telling us bout shit that dont matter then took offense cause if you really only have 20k you overstepping your bounds on 1k primetime bets..you really didnt say anything meaningful about the gm, so im assuming you either a lying ghost or a wanna be tout who hopes to get hot then sell picks to idiots..you sure had a quick answer to the ghost question, if i was accused of being a ghost i wouldnt even really know what they meant let alone have a mapped out "check my ip" answer.. hell im a cpu dummy and i know how to make my ip addy appear different than reality, not that i care or know how to check your ip.. your goofy ass story made up and all isnt nearly as interesting as my real life shit half which buried somewhere in PT, they ring way more true cause they are. believe it or not you not even the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd make believe investment banker turned "pro" story this year.

                                            Haha this isn't the only sports forum around, I've been gambling a while.

                                            I'm a college graduate, If I can't make an inference on what ghost means then I must be pretty damn retarded.

                                              Just ignore this game. The single best play of the week for NFL is Ten -4.5.

                                                I see no claim to fame. Just come out swinging. I give you a month or two (at most).

                                                  I like this play but I don't love the number.. I got +4 with sportsbookdotcom.

                                                  May play some back on SF at -3. (hedge) with another book

                                                  (9/24/13 01:39 ET) was when I placed the wager at +4 (they have 3.5 now)


                                                  GL with your wager and your vegas dream


                                                  PS dam you guys are brutal on new people lol.

                                                    There will be easier plays this weekend rather than bet a toss up Thursday game with two teams that can't seem to get anything going. We all trying to cash out big so I hope you do well.

I only make money on NHL and just bet NFL for fun (the NFL books are too good). But I couldn't pass up this up. So, you've travelled to a few countries, got a shit IB degree from a school in butt penetrate nowhere, and you think you've had an interesting life because you've decided that a 9-5 isn't that enjoyable and you'd much prefer the lifestyle of a professional gambler? What part of this is interesting and non-conventional?
