    Couldn't you just go across the street if you thought this had any chance, less wins needed also.

    I suppose a smarter strategy would be to take out some percentage of the winnings to ensure some profit. If I get to $100 I may take out my initial investment of $20 (this is my 2nd attepmt) and go buy a subway or lotto ticket like people have suggested.

    All opinions welcome

    I'm afraid to ask how much are they paying you in that Engineering company if you wussed out to put a 250 bone wager.

    Best of luck mate!

    Haha Im not afraid to say that 250 is alot for me on one play regardless of my job. Im part asian so kind of a tight ass by nature haha. I ended up just taking wife and family out for what only cost me $10. Thats a win in my books

    im not claiming to be a big time gambler. My units are $50 so thats roughly 5u. I admire the guys with balls to bet $100 $200 units.

    Santa takes roughly 18 bets to get to $1000 from $10

    10 x 1.3^18 = 1124

    Haha cheers. But the point of this thread is to point out some good $1.30 bets so ill take advice if you think its good. Not all $1.30s are the same haha

    Thanks seaweed. I dont think its a long term strategy. Just for fun.

    NOTE for all people following. My goal is not to make consistent money here. So you are correct in saying that I will eventually lose.

    I really just want to see how high I get before I chicken out... my o/u line is around $400 haha any takers?

    Man you seem like you are choosing your plays randomly, but at least be a little more careful.
    Wtf is Shivika Burman??, and why she has to win that second serve??

    If you lose on such a bet, when you are close to complete your mission, you ll remeber names like Shivika Burman forever
