About $2000 per game, but I usually bet $969 2 team parlays. Sometimes I make them 3 teamers, but not more than 3 teams.

Baseball was one of my best seasone of any sport in a LONG time!

$10 to 5k. 5k only once in life. Soiled pants. Don't do that anymore. Lately $200 to $300 in football. Once in a while $500. Down for year as usual.

I normally bet 20 bucks a game, straight action. My wife and I only gross about 85K a year. What kind of fuggin moron would risk living a comfortable lifestyle with something as silly and almost as unbeatable as sports gambling ?

If I could afford to bet the amount of jack I've seen some posters brag of in this thread I'd be laying on a beach in Tahiti siping a fru fru drink and getting sucked off by super models.

not trying to be to personal. But really curious how big is your bankroll? how do you get that much? how much you have in offshore accounts. If you don't want to answer I fully understand. It's not that I don't believe you it's just that I wondering how one gets to this level. I have been at it for a while and just can't get to that kind of bankroll, maybe looking for a few pointers.

I made a lot of money in the stock market from 1996-April 2000, and I sold out at the top. Since then I have been picking my spots carefully in the market and have been doing well in gambling. I had a net worth of about 0 ten years ago and finally some big gambles paid off in a big way.

1% of bankroll

$200 a play, usually on solid plays backed by top RX cappers.

I don't like betting a grocery list of plays (5+ per day) , but I did do that with Buc's baseball plays and look how that worked out............

85k in Vegas is like 250K in San Diego County Kiss, you could probably afford to bet 50-60 a game now since you cost of living has decreased 150%.

I made a fair chunk of change on the home I *owned* in San Diego. I didn't swallow a bunch of "foolish" pills because banked some serious money. The cost of living here is about the same as San Diego if you deduct a mortgage payment.

People who think it's cheap to live in Vegas are about 10 years too late. I got very lucky to find an unbelievable RE deal here in the winter of 2003.

It will be cheap again, every time you turn around another house is getting repoed. People went crazy there, now they can't afford to keep their houses. Houses just wnet nuts because everyone got caught up. That bubble has burst or is leaking serious air. Idon't care how many people are moving in, seemingly just as many are now moving out...disillusioned.

Utilities, groceries and gas are cheaper there. Can't comment on taxes since I never owned anything there, but I have to think they are a lot less than ANYWHERE in So Cal.

Not to mention you can pretty much walk everywhere when you get in town. Traffic is worsening, but not nearly as bad as SD and definately nowhere near LA Co and OC. A $20 cab ride can get you just about anywhere you would want to live so you really don't even need a car there.

Got a little off topic. But think of it "Your enviroment, and how it affects your bankroll"

This isn't a "Town." It's the Strip, completely surrounded by scores of square miles of suburbia. Believe me you need a car, you wouldn't want to share a bus with the folks who have to use them.
