Well, lets see I have been betting for the last 10-12 years unsuccessfully and than I decided to create several computer models to predict the outcome of sports two years ago. I now have 4 plus models and I am working on baseball daily.

In the mean time, let's face reality. I owe the IRS over $100,000. I am waiting tables until my new job comes through which will allow me to refinance homes. However, if I don't have a payment plan set up with the IRs that shows I will pay them back in the next centurym I can't get that job. I stayed at home today taking care of my son, who happened to have a fever, and eventually had to take him to patient first and self pay because my waiting table job carries no health insurance.

I'm an electrical engineer and graduated from West Point 20 years ago almost to the day. I am programming on a 4 year old laptop, watching movies on my tv screen, because I can't really afford cable until I start my new job.

I currently relaunch my program between August 1st and 15th. This is where I become delusional, I believe I can make it work. I already have investors lined up. And when a I travel to Brazil in October for business... I should be ready for College basketball season because all the money I make there will go to fund this next season.


Recap: Electrical Engineer, West Point Graduate, no cable, owe the IRS $100,000, currently waiting tables, hoping new job is approve, have an 8 year old son, 3-5 computer programs built, investors onboard, waiting to get funding for teaching business/finance in Brazil.

That about sums it up. A unique approach but I am guessing... those truly trying to become professionals may have similar stories.

Quit gambling

[GunShard]

Never loan, pay your taxes. Secure yourself before you secure your win.

My gambling rules:
1. Bet on sports that you are good at, don't bet on sports you are bad at.
2. Bankroll money management. You should only be betting 1% to 10% of your total bankroll.
3. Never bet on heavily juiced lines. Like a line at -1000 for example.
4. Never bet on heavily valued lines. Like a terrible team at 100 to 1 odds to win championship and slot machine / lotto jackpots.
5. Teams with home field/court advantage tend to win games, especially in football.
6. Be a strategic gambler by picking your spots and wait for the right opportunity. Never be an impulsive gambler by betting for the action or just because it feels good and it's your favorite team.
7. Stay emotionless all the time. Bet like a robot. There's no place for emotions in this profession.
8. Parlays should be no longer than 2 teams. Research and Secure your first pick before moving on to your second pick.
9. Teasers should never pass through the zero.
10. Sportsbooks make money off of both Sharp plays and Square plays because all lines are juiced. Sharp plays make money off of Square plays. Squares help create the casinos in Las Vegas.
11. Always make your bet near game time. Players could get injured during the week before game time.
12. Sportsbook have an edge on the NFL than the NCAAF because they can focus on the 32 NFL teams but cannot focus on the hundreds of NCAAF teams.
13. Never deposit money for sportsbook bonus money that requires rollover. You are immediately juiced before you even placed your first bet.
14. Never bet on preseason games on any sport. Predicting a 2nd string or 3rd string team is stupid.
15. If you are extremely impulsive and arrogant. The best advice is to "Don't Gamble".
