A lot of people rely on a little BS in an interview situation.

Piss poor industry

[MrSink]

[Otters27]

what you want to do more specific ?

Actually I'll take any low stress job for $20 an hour. I can work from home on the computer. Just so tired of dealing with pissed off people

[jjgold]

You’re not working at home in that industry and you’re not getting $20 an hour managers that run sports books don’t even make that much


I said get jobs of been in the business for years other than loser clerks only jobs available

[franklee168]

Otters....this would be like an elephant guarding a peanut truck. It would end real bad bro.

[pavyracer]

Have you ever thought of fading yourself? You won't have to work if you do this.

[Otters27]

JJ. You might be able to help me one day

[Otters27]

Man I've tried. I think one guy faded me and broke even. I do win a lot in a row so it's hard to fade. All about the timing of the big loss or making it to a cashout stage

High stakes dealers.

[iBetSo]

Even at 5/10 PLO or PLO8 dealers do well. $1000 pots usually see a $25 tip at least.

Wow thanks Jake. That ones part time. Would have to move to Minnesota

[Otters27]

Looks like I'm going to have to enter data on hockey. Going to have to start betting and watching hockey

[lonegambler23]

same otters i was just thinking of makin this switch

[iBetSo]

Depending on your analytical ability look at some futures trading. Markets I like are E mini S&P and crude oil futures. Takes some time to figure things out but capital required is significantly less than normal day trading.

At least its more respectable to say you lost money trading than lost money betting on sports. lol

[Otters27]

I applied for that job

[lonegambler23]

otters u should book the moneylines

[iBetSo]

I hope the best for you but I am inclined to compare this to an alcoholic working as a bartender.

[Otters27]

Not sure the angle here Otters. What are you trying to do? Make book? Be a clerk? Work for a syndicate? Work for a book? Can you program or are you just seeking data entry? Do you understand risk management, at least a little?

There is no career called "Sports Betting Industry"

I could get you running, but can you resist betting the money? That feels like a bad movie in the making...lol

Apply at Caesar's and specify the book, see where that gets you. You just might have to get into the casino anywhere, then make your way to the book.

[Otters27]

I could easily run. I'd never bet with money that's not mine.

Running would be a dream job depending on how much I make

[clockwise1965]

Good luck bro.

[jjgold]

Like I said there’s no money in that field

[RangeFinder]

Otters get a statistics degree and you'll make better money on this side of the counter

How long will that take if I went back full time

[RangeFinder]

Depends on how many credits you have now. If you start from scratch you're looking at a minimum 4 years.

[KVB]

Sent you a PM Otters.

Range makes a point, in this day and age, whatever you might want to learn stats or whatever, it's a good idea to learn it. Great thing is that with the net, there is so much you can learn on your own time, while still working as you need to.

There are free math courses from Ivy league schools out there.

Regardless, learn as you go and build slowly. Even in regards to my PM.
