Yeah!! I know..it's dumb.... but starting with $10 and ending up with 10,000 in 4 weeks with rollover bets at an average -330 odds..??(you might have done this a dozen times already) Sounds kinda interesting. And losing 10$ doesn't really hurt I guess. Anyone interested ??? Please feel free to comment, share your plays,ideas and stuff (Pleaaassseeeeee no rude comments & money management lectures..it's just...$10...!!). I will be posting my plays...

I've read that!! 1000 is too much for rollover bets!! And betting on any heavy favorite in any American League is the dumbest thing you can ever do. Either the Competition or some Vegas stuff American sports are never good for rollovers. Tennis/Soccer/Cricket/Volleyball are the best. I might sound stupid but that's what I observed from betting 4 years on mostly European Sports and 8 months on American Sports.

Yes..favorites with a very clear edge!! There is always a chance to lose but I don't really mind losing 10 when there is a potential to win a lot.

Well if you looked at the linked thread a guy started with 1k betting it on heavy favorites and ended up with nothing within a few days so be careful.

Nope..not even remotely near!! It could be listed as a strategy I guess. I'm just some random college kid who bets 20-30$(2% of my tiny bankroll)....I'm not equipped to create systems..I wish I had time to do something like that though.

Yes..I did...well it's only $10....and betting a 1000 on this stuff is purely illogical. I would never ever do it.

Good luck. Id steer clear of cricket in the future though.
I love the game, but will NEVER bet on it.

You keep saying that it's only $10. That's not even close to the truth. What happens when you win a bunch in a row and are now making bets in the hundreds? You think it's still just $10 then? I don't care if the money is in some account and you have never even touched it, it's real money! You make a $500 bet and lose. Are you going to say "Oh well, it's just $10"? If you think that way, you're a fool.

Didn't I say no rude comments ??? I was being the best 21 year old around here. If I make a 500 I will keep that money and start with a 10 again. Is that okay ?? I'm not really a smooth guy but I'm trying to be one right here right now. Please don't use words such as "fool" and stuff. Please.

and don't bet blindly. I spend a lot of time analyzing every single game. I'm a budding statistician and I know what I do. I have a dual-bachelor degree and I'm pretty smart.

Bruin does raise a good point though. I'm not trying to bring you down or anything, more so just going to try and pass on some of the hard lessons I have learnt so u don't make the same mistakes.
It's a very simple theory, but the likelihood of you reaching 10k from 10$ is very unlikely with your current methods, eventually you wil lose one.
My advice to you would be play multi bets, if you reaserch and are that good, you should be able to win a few good multis (I think you guys call them parlays) to get a good bankroll going so you don't have to risk everything every time.
Good luck with whatever you choose.

For some reason I don't like Parlays. It's triple the risk!! I prefer one game a day. Thanks for the advice though. This kind of input is good.
