i gotta ask - how did you turn $100 into 50k in a month?
Here is my story i posted on the 27/08/2009 =
Let me tell you my story (pretty crazy)
When i turned 19 years old, i began betting by putting 100 bucks down. I slowly managed to turn those 100 bucks into 4 thousand dollars (took me several months). Within a week time i lost 2 g's and i decided to take a break (for like 4 months)
I started around a month ago with 100 bucks.
Within a week and a half i turned those 100 bucks into 1400 bucks. I cashed 800 (so i was left with 700 profit considering i "invested" 100 bucks, and 600 into the account). Within a week, i had turned those 600 into 10 g's. Another week i had 20 g's.
Just last weekend i managed to make 10 g's on saturday and 12 g's on sunday night. I had 50 856 dollars in the account (btw, if its of any interest, i use Pinnacle). I cashed 11500 bucks on Sunday and by monday afternoon the money was already in my checking account (i used instadebit to do the transaction). Monday i decided to take a day off.
Bought myself a 47 inch tv, and since monday, i have only made 2 g's (i lost and won some HUGE bets).
The thought a month ago that today i would have 50 g's with a starting bankroll of 100 bucks is beyond me. It still amazes me and im waking up every morning knowing how lucky i am (mind you im 19 years old only, live in my parents, and have little liabilities).
I have my school paid for, and have recently opened a stocks account where i'll begin diversifying all my winnings (eventually moving to real estate).
Mind you, i have a very different way of betting. Ive heard ppl say here that you are supposed to bet under 10% of your entire bankroll. At times, im betting up to 50% of my entire bankroll. I do agree its risky, but thats the way i am (plus its all profits im playing with anyways).
Its trully like a rollercoaster. Some days i start with 38 (like today) move it all the way up to 52, then sink it down to 34, and finish the night with 42.
My lucky advantage is that im currently relying on a HUGE bankroll. Meaning that i can afford to lose 10 g's, cause i'll still have another 30 g's available to play with. When you start with a small bankroll, its much harder to build up (hence why it took me a week and a half to build from 100 to 1400, yet took me only another week to build up from 600 to 10 000)
One good piece of advise i can give you is to know yourself.
Learn to control yourself and learn what your forte is.
For example, i learned my forte is live bets. Im very lucky/fortunate at live bets. Thats why i like to make my heavy plays during the games rather than before the game starts.
Another thing i do is i do tail some good cappers here (Mistermj, Venomousanction, gabbana, ACE-ACE to mention a couple) and i def play listen to what they say. To the point that if i do find myself thinking of playing a team, and find one of these cappers is playing opposite to what i was leaning to, i just stay out of the game.
I have also developed a habit to cash out whenever possible. At this pace, instadebit is only allowing me to withdraw 12 g's per week. So while i can, im doing that, keeping in mind that i do have to have at least a good 10g's on the account for me to use on more bets.
I hope that helps.
Believe me, even now, im always scared that one day pinnacle might just delete my account, and pretend never to have heard about me. But i did get those 11.5 g's on the account, so yes, it might sound like a dream, but if it is, its a very vivid one.
Oh, one last thing. I discourage friends to see this as a full time job. I mean, with 50 g's this month only, i have made the yearly salary of an average full timer here in Canada. I still have a part time job, which provides me with a STABLE income, which is very different from the "hobby income" bets are bringing me.
As much as i won a lot of money, i could lose it all in a matter of days (hence why i wanna start pulling it out and investing in several stuff)
Good luck to you and to everyone
The story continued = 2 days later (i believe), Barcelona played Shakhtar Donetsk.
Started the game with 2 grand on Barca. As the game progressed and i noticed Barca was pounding time after time and really hustling to get that first goal, i kept playing money on Barca.
I played roughly 25 g's on that game. Barca won on extra time (meaning i lost my bet since only regular time counts).
I was at 56 g's by then.
Drop 23-28 g's and that leaves you with 29 or so.
Being still a rookie i couldn't deal with it and made more bets during the day. Lost on some unbelieveable unlucky plays that same night and the day after, which put me down to 18-20 g's.
Decided to cash out then.
some weeks after i decided to try out again with 500 and i believe i lost them.
Tried a couple of times with 100 bucks but was successful in a very small level.
If you have read my thread/past threads, i was always a big pinnaclesports supporter. Really liked them!. 2 days ago they kicked me out of their site, so i decided to start with 200 bucks fresh at bet365. Got a 200 dollar bonus from them and now i sit at 1057 2 days after i opened the account.
Lets hope i can keep it up. As soon as i reach 1500 (if i even manage to get there), i'll be cashing out 500 and keep playing with the rest to see if i can repeat history again.
My goal is to get to 50 g's, have school paid for and have a down-payment for my own condo before i turn 22-24 (im 20 now).
Stay thirsty my friend!
