    Lot of rich oil guys like Opie

    As far as people who always say they want to move here to Las Vegas, I personally do not recommend it unless you are extremely financially stable, and by stable I mean either you have a steady, decent income or at least $50,000 in the bank. Because trust me, you aren't going to come here and make money off of betting on sports. In my year here I probably won slightly more than I lost, which is break even at best. And I lived a very economically conservative lifestyle(never spent money on anything except the necessities) and had a full time job.

    Making money off of betting on sports is a pipe dream at best. You are better off having a job and just betting on sports as a side hobby.
    Good luck with your new gig!

    A graduate asst is basically a gopher for the other coaches. He'll be cutting film and getting it prepped for the position coach, etc. He's probably heading to DIII unless well connected.

    It's +EV, you're just not working the system. I had a gourmet lunch today for $8, then got free drinks and spent the day lounging around in an awesome pool.
    Yesterday, I saw a movie for $5 in a theatre with stadium seats, in one of the cleanest, emptiest theaters in America.
    Monday, I went to a pack room filled with crazy NFL fans, won $60, and I could've bowled all night for $5.

    Yeah, it's hot. Yeah, there's lots of degenerates. Yeah, there's idiots who can't control their bankroll.
    But Las Vegas is one of the best times I've had in my life. Viva Las Vegas!

    I stayed at the Fiesta for a few days last year, movie theater was very nice. Was going to make my way to Texas because I knew they had cheap bowling, but looks like Sunset will be a stop next time.

    GL to u, Frogs. Best wishes.

    That said, I think your outlook is wrong. I don't think you should generalize about what people are capable of.

    I think Mike's talking about +$ VP and other comps. Would love to hear how to get up to $30k. But I do think the Fishhead-style advantage play has some validity.
