    Yes. I estimate it will take approximatively 90-110 bets to reach $10,000 depending on variance.

    I will let the results speak for themselves.

    Just out of curiosity ...

    Toronto -0.5 +100 ...20.00

    Toronto -105 ...20.00

    did you know that you are betting on the same outcome twice!!

    then you have the Under on the same game..Under 2.5 -105 ...10.00
    so if toronto lose or draw and the under wins you win 9.50 and lose 40.0 on the draw or loss...in the long run this will hurt.

    staking 20-30% per game is suicidal.

    I'll assume this was meant to be posted in a different thread.

    No. I use in the region of a full kelly stake.

    30% is my maximum bet. Bet 2 was a 20% stake to reflect the lower chance of winning than Bet 1 or Bet 3.

    Throughout the thread I will alter the percentage wagered on each bet to reflect my estimate of the bets chances of winning in relation to the odds offered.

    He's only using $100, it's not like he's using a proper bankroll.

    The whole point of this thread is to turn a few dollars into a lot of money, risk small to win big. IMO he won't reach 10k with 1 try, I think he should at least use 10-20 units and figure out a strategy other than the pre-game lines.

    Due to the fixtures and the internationals over the next few days it is unlikely there will be any bets until the latter stages of next week.

    The current Swiss side has seen its star players age and remain in the side purely on reputation with very little fresh blood coming through to replace them. The result is a third-place in the current standings of a weak-looking Group G, six points adrift of the mighty Montenegro.

    With the exception of the draw with Montenegro, England scored within the first 10 minutes of all their other matches in this campaign and unsurprisingly it was the first goal of the match.





    Switzerland coach Ottmar Hitzfeld has a major selection headache upfront. For his last three qualification games, he chose a partnership of Alexander Frei (captain and all-time leading scorer for his country) and Marco Streller. After a poor performance in the 0-0 with Bulgaria last time out, however, both came in for harsh criticism, and both retired from international football.

    Now Switzerland - who hadn't scored in 7 of their last 13 games anyway - have to find an entirely new shape and structure to their attack. Combined with England's good defensive record - just one goal conceded in four qualification games - an England clean sheet looks good.

    unlucky on that england bet. that twat darren bent had two great chances to score when the game was 2-2 and downing had a great chance with the last kick of the game.

    Interesting posting here. I started a similar trial with $100 3 days ago, but I am wagering across all sports, mainly with soccer. I am at $326.21 right now, but I have no intention on trying to grow it to $10,000 as I think your assumption that it could happen in 90 bets is much too small of an estimation for number of required wagers. Anyhow, good luck! If you pull it off, I'm sure the $$ will be reward enough, but props as well!
