        jj. is not dispensing valuble info. he is saying the only way tol make money at sports is arbitrage. which is total bull. sh.it.

        you make money at sportsbetting becuz u are informed. not only by informed of arbitrage line movements.

        you know that the NBA rookie sophmore game trend is no defense but a bunch of yung hung nba studs who only want to play for the highlite reels. where defense does not really cut it.

        then u make a educated guess. that the total is going over cuz of all the yung hotdoggers. showing their big stiffy.

        then u cash out.

        all this for 39 bux a month on my cellphone from espn commetary. and guys who are in the know talking thier opinion. and then making ur decsiion and wager from that.

        if u read espn and read the espn discussion pages u knew before today. that the oilers were playing the spoiler. beating dallas and montreal this week at home. and then a playoff hopeful atlanta is coming in with bad squirts.

        hell bodog was ofering edmonton at -1.5 at +255 this morning. but i took the -105. not wanting to be greedy. i knew last night at 1030 vegas the edmonton was the play. without looking at any lines until this morning.

        bs. jj. total bs. get off ur high pedestal man. saying arbitrage is the only way. cuz ur sounding rank and belchy to me.

          i'm going thru this thread. jj continues to talk.

          jj. i live in Vegas. i would not trade it out for anything or anywhere. Let them nuke us here cuz of nellis Air Force Base. Vegas is a grreat place to live.

          ------------

          secondly. if he does play blackjack. good for him. i have a blackjack system that has never lost in Vegas. NEVER. i win everytime i play.

          so once again you belch out bad advice.

            the American jet fighters fly out. swinging from their runway towards San Fransico. during the night time. blasting the starry sky overhead.

            we help defend America here bro. JJ. and the American way. man.

                i should not of flashed my casino skills here, because surveillance picks up the winners. it is best to remain as anonymous as possible, polite as possible, and when winning spread the wins at the casino (not in reference here). at games that lose. tip. eat at their restaurants.

                be polite. be grateful they allow you to play with them. since you are taking their money. do not take to much or be greedy.

                be like the casino you are in. they take players money and give money back to the players at a lesser %.

                take the casinos money and then give the casino back some of the winnings at a lesser %.

                      The trouble for me reading the first page or so is that with only 25k that ain't a lot of money. I'm glad to hear you have 15k to fall back on if you fail, but the problem is - 25k will not be enough to start.

                      Thinking off the top of my head, you bet 5% of your bankroll - that's $1,250 each bet, and even if you have a 60% record for every ten bets you'd make 2k or so?? Ish anyway, but 60% is rarely seen over the span of time you need.

                      I remember the likes of cockknocker - who went an entire wnba season breaking even, and he thought he had the big edge there.

                      I think this will fail, and ruin your marriage, and make your friends think you're a mong.

                      Why oh why did you just not bet offshore from your home part time whilst keeping your cop salary and pension?????!!!!

                            He isn't going anywhere. After turning in a fake resignation at a job he doesn't have he miraculously receives a raise and promotion. His sorry ass will continue ghosting on SBR and betting 5-10 bucks a game on Bodog.

                                  Dude, don't do this. Think about it. I mean REALLY think about it. Leaving your wife and quitting your solid steady job to go across the country and gamble on sports and eke out a living in cheap apartment/shitty night job? Dude just enjoy your life, enjoy your wife, enjoy your good job, enjoy florida, and just continue to bet on sports like the rest of us. You can have it all...you don't have to leave your wife and family and home and job and friends in order to bet on sports. Don't do it man.

                                      This sounds really promising... I hope you do good though, man..
                                      Yea,..Write back when you strike it rich though... Hell, millions of people settled out west in earlier days to strike it rich mining gold... Look how they did!

                                      My only question to you is why dont you keep your day job in tampa and continue sports or whatever you play online?
                                      If its trying to get into a new city, because your tired of the one you live.. Well,.Yea I couldn't agree more.. Move to another city,.but try to find a good job first.. Before you move,.look around at the market and get some SOLID interviews..
                                      Just my two pennies,..take'em for what their worth.

                                          Why go to Vegas, bring Vegas to your home, move to a country where living costs are lower and the internet is free.

                                                  That makes me feel better. Worst comes to worst, you strike out here and go back home and get on with your life with more peace and appreciation about your life. Peace is priceless; if you need to scratch this itch to get some, scratch.

                                                  And I like the idea of you getting a security job when you get here. With your size and background I'd think they'd jump at the chance to hire you. Should earn enough to cover expenses.

                                                  I must say first, for the record, to get it off my chest: I don't like your system, because it's basically a chase system, and I don't like coming to Vegas to bet baseball because Vegas is only useful for pointspread sports, and even then only as an adjunct to offshore outs.

                                                  BUT: you've made up your mind, and I wish you well. To all those knocking his decision, understand, he's MADE his decision, so there's no point harping on it. Now, support the guy, or STFU.

                                                  BTW, in Vegas, non-roachy, thuggy, furnished apartments without a lease, are few and far between. Because I have a home in Cali and am only here about half the year (during FB and BB seasons), and spend money on my family, not myself, I stay in cheaper places here. I just want no roaches, drunks or thugs (doesn't seem like much to ask, but most no-lease monthlies in Vegas are crap). Siegal Suites and Budget Suites, for example, are unlivable, imo. And I'm a guy who was comfortable with the barracks when I was in the service and the dorm when I was in college, so I'm no wimp about living conditions.

                                                  1) Homestead Suites on Maryland Parkway across from the hospital.
                                                  2) Holiday Royale on Paradise across from Hard Rock.
                                                  3) Emerald whatever on LVBD, north of South Point.
                                                  4) Casino-jumping with a Harrah's Diamond Card/Expedia wizardry/friend's couch (for monster expensive weekends like New Years and such). I know a guy who's been living like that for years. Says he averages about $600/month. Personally, I'd like a kitchen and some stability, but that's me.

                                                  That's the short list, afaik. Good luck, Matt. Blog here about your story. I speak for a lot of us when I say I'm interested in how it goes.

You and your wife set up some sort of savings account (assuming your Employer's don't already have them set up), and try to deposit 10-12% of every paycheck into it. If you do it the right way, you should be able to retire in your 50s, and then you can go to Vegas
                                                    This is not bad advice. You'd be surprised at how young you are in your 50s. It seems old, but I'm there now and it's all right. Coming here then, with your daughters raised, your pension earned, your wife with you, is a kind of freeroll. But if you've already quit your job, there's nothing to talk about.

                                                    And I do want to make it clear that I wish he wasn't doing this. I think it's a terrible longshot. But maybe what we're all forgetting is that he's unhappy now, and no amount of telling an unhappy person to be happy will make them happy. I don't think it's possible that he'll succeed in Vegas. I do think it's possible that failure in Vegas will lead to happiness back home. He might get a Zuzu's petals moment out of this and be grateful for ever after about the joys of a nice, average family life.

                                                    I've been gambling for a living for 20+ years and have a nice family life, too, so it is possible, but I'm almost the only one I know in this game who is like that. In fact, honestly, I don't think I know a single other long-time professional gambler who's married with children and has a middle-class lifestyle. Of course, I'm a 25-hour a week worker, not a 75-hour a week guy, and that extra freetime really helps make a family life possible. I don't see how the guys who eat-breathe-and-sleep gambling can be good family men.

People all over the country are losing their jobs and have no pension waiting for them if they can make it to retirement. You are walking away from a recession proof career with a pension waiting for you at the end. You're doing this to chase some system in Vegas where you will be betting into worse lines then online.

                                                              Why not stay home, work your job and bet online. The expenses of living in Vegas without a career (security at clubs make next to nothing by the way) will eat up any bankroll you have put aside. There is a lot of stress betting for a living rather then a hobby.

                                                              If you were a 21 year old kid with no responsibilites I would say go for it and take your shot. You are married with a great job. Pretty selfish of you to do this in my opinion.
                                                              YOURE RIGHT! betting full time is high stress and the pressure takes its toll. It gets higher and higher if you dont break it and its not easy. Its hard to be cool. And even when you want to have a break you will bet before you know it because it becomes routine. Part of your system. Anyone who says otherwise is full of shit or hasnt did it long enough or hard enough ** betting big **

                                                                  pfffftttttttttttt 5k a month is **** all. thats 1250 a week if you cant do that with 25k youre not a gamblers ball sack. You stupid ass cunts think theres only one way to do it ffs you could wager 10k on a live bet two times and make 10k easily and use that as your bank yes you could also lose but if you got a bit of money no reason why you should go broke.

You stupid ass cunts think theres only one way to do it ffs you could wager 10k on a live bet two times and make 10k easily and use that as your bank yes you could also lose but if you got a bit of money no reason why you should go broke.
