$50-$500

BIGDAY · 01-18-11, 08:30 PM

I have many books that I use. I consider myself novice because I get nervus with more than 10K in a particular book. I usually cash out 2K at a time. Even at a $100 per unit, this can take me a long time. When I'm doing great, once a month. If I do crappy, one time it took me a year and a half. That streak sucked.

It would be very hard for me to turn $50 into $500 as I only try to bet 2% of my roll per bet. I'll adjust this every 2 to 3 weeks. You must not be too conservative with your bets I'm assuming...

I am just wondering if there are a lot of guys who do this with bigger sums of money. There is a guy on this board efbbears? that has turned $70 into almost $2000. Is it just the inability to place large bets?

I'm not trying to make this in a brag because what I have done a couple times isn't that impressive. I'm just wondering if you or if you know guys who have turned 5000 into 50000. Or stories like that.

$500 is ashtray money for guys like JJ Gold.....I would believe less than 1% of anyone on this forum talking about turning $70 into $2000. If bullshitting was against the law there would be about 1000 people around here doing time.

No not very conservative at all. I mean I totally understand guys who take it serious and follow strict Bankroll managemnt. As being a poker player myself I follow very strict BRM guidelines in poker. I consider myself a rec. sports bettor and just do it for fun. For Sports betting it would not be uncommon for me to have 50% of my roll on a game lol so not conservative at all.

I just love hearing the type of stories when a guy can run up a small sum to large one. Happens quite a bit in poker but I assume quite a bit less in Sports Betting? Just seeing if anybody has any good stories.

Thanks for the reply bigday

No Problem Don,
The thing is, you'll hit a 2-13 week sometime, and you'll really start judging yourself when that time comes. Trust me, Every person here that has done this for 3-4+ years will have many weeks like this. Just goota hope you have more 17-2 weeks.

Take a look at his plays man he puts everything up http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-ta...-50-500-a.html

Yea I know $50 is pennies to most guys on here. I'll be sweating a $100 bet and I'll see people dropping thousands a game.
