    All you need is $15. I once worked a $15 bankroll to over $9,000 in 2010 in the NBA. Key is to work your way up and adjust accordingly.

                    To "start" your career???

                    Hopefully not much, since losing is the first lesson...

                                  players talk isn't for winners.

                                  heck it's not even about sports betting.

                                      I would just start off with $5, playing 25 team parlays.

                                      Once you hit, then you will be able to start your "career".

                                          Depends what kind of money you are playing with and would need to make as your only income. I would say 50K at an absolute minimum.

                                            I've done my research over the years. After 6 years and 9 months I've finally invented a very sharp piece of software that tells me how much I need to start a gambling career based on my profit goals over the year. $69,000 is the exact number someone needs to start gambling professionally. Glad I could help. Any more questions?

                                              I would say $50,000 and with that you can only bet $100-$200 per game. I love all the guys that want to go pro but its hard. Stats dont work but rare models do. Also you need to live in Las Vegas and also have foregin based address to play at all Euro type books. I am going pro in 1 year. I have what it takes.

                                                you have to overcome the vig, bookie edge and do it consistently...that being said you should not bet more then 2-3 percent of your roll on any event..assuming your picking a side
