        forget about the "trying to do this for a living thing " ,
        use your money to have some fun betting games, but dont expect to turn this into 2k or 3k quickly without risking to lose it all .

          20 a game with a 600.00 roll. Most on here would even say less. 20 is fair though. NOW is that what I would do NO. The forum is for solid advice so there you go.

                20 a game maybe once in a while 50 when you want to take a shot at a game.

                    Can I ask you a question?

                    Why would you WANT to do this for a living?

                    I can't imagine having my mortgage payment riding on some goofy college football game. That is no way to live life man.

                    Just have fun with this stuff.

                      $6

                      no one that does this for living has their mortgage payments riding on single game, group of games, day, week, month, or probably even year.

                            Yeah, that's called life man.

                            You go to school, you pay back your student loans, you buy a house

                            There is no fast track.

                            The odds of you getting to a 100K are slim to none. Accept that.

                            Take a dollar and play the powerball this week. Same odds.

                                      I am guessing Sports Genius was exempt from every single class.

                                      Do us all a favor Sports Genius.

                                      Create a thread with the bankroll you have from you 14/hr gig. Actually, you already told us it is 600 bucks. Create a thread documenting your run to 250K.

                                      I don't think you will make it.

                                            I am sorry to say you have no chance. What in your skill set would enable you to do this better than most?
                                            If you are serious ,the way to start is to do it without money so when you start you KNOW you have an edge. And like durito said, between all the initial bonuses and the sportsinteraction's of the world, 1st 100k is cake.

                                                you can withdrawal as much as you want. gambling winnings, whether $323 a year or $323,235 are taxable income. pay your taxes.
