        Big difference in gambling for extra fun money vs money needed to eat and keeping the lights on


        have done both... the latter will crack-up most people

            Vegas is the easiest town in the US to make a good living in.

                    Absolutely.

                    Vegas has so much to offer if one ventures OFF of the strip.

                    Strip is for SUCKERS.

                        What did she do to JJ? He's a certified notarized Pro and living large in Ocala. That's not bad.

                          I'm leaving right now. Quit my day job and sold my house.

                          Kidding. I've lived there and hated it. Too much traffic, lot's of crime (Car jackings, shootings, murders, drunk driving accidents and deaths.) The place is ghetto.

                          Sorry to ruin some people's dreams. But there is the truth.

                                        If you do, buy in Henderson or way way west of the strip, like 30 minutes drive west. If you don't, plan on living locked and loaded.

Have 9 Vegas sports apps and 4 offshore accounts so no need to hit the books but do occasionally just to be around the sports betting scene. I receive a monthly annuity check therefore I"m just a recreational bettor and just happy to make $500/month from sports betting. Also I never play table games.
                                                I like your setup! You have a nice little butter and eggs income. The accounts in Vegas - nickels or so - offshore dimes - you can run the whole thing on 15-20K?

                                                OK - big ? I want to see if you agree with me or not. Let's say you want to go bigger. Make $2500 a month. There is so much more risk than the 5x it implies. More risk is taken on - more banking - bank needs to be 10X bigger. Any screwup has a big impact. Pulling the trigger on some plays is going to be a lot harder even if they have value?

                                                      OK - big ? I want to see if you agree with me or not. Let's say you want to go bigger. Make $2500 a month. There is so much more risk than the 5x it implies. More risk is taken on - more banking - bank needs to be 10X bigger. Any screwup has a big impact. Pulling the trigger on some plays is going to be a lot harder even if they have value?
                                                      I have between $250-$900 in all of my accounts. To go bigger involves a lot of discipline and a big bankroll. As stated before I'm a recreational bettor and need action everyday even if it means just betting $50 a game.

                                                                That's not true! But, they play value and value only! But, it is usually off the mainstream, i.e. totals, halftimes, quarters, props. Those guys do not just guess - do not just wake up and look at the sheet and circle picks.
