Make it a goal to increase the 2K by 25% in one month. So your goal is to reach $2.500. And you have a month to do this. It may only take you a week or so. Maybe not even that. It may take you 2-3 weeks. Whatever. It doesn't matter. Give yourself a month so there's no pressure.
Focus on that goal of making that $500. If you need to place a wager for $9.03 to reach it, then do it. Once you reach $2,500, make it a goal to increase that amount by 25% in one month.
Your goal will then be $3,125, so you'll have to make $625 to get there. Once again, all you're concerned with is making it to $3,125.
Follow this progression and you'll be a millionaire in no time. Multiplication is powerful.
Goal #3 would be $3,906.25
Goal #4 would be $4,882.81
Goal #5: $6,103.51

After 26 months you have $661K. But it won't take you a month to reach each goal. I've done this starting out with $20 and I made it to level 11 I think and then I lost it. I simply didn't make the correct wagers. I'm going to start this again soon though. Sometimes it only took a few days to hit my 25% goal.
What's beautiful is that it's no harder to increase $5,000 by 25% than it is to increase $100 by 25%. You don't have to make more wagers, you simply increase your wager amount accordingly.
With a starting point of $2,000, a $50 win gives you 10% of your goal (50 is 10% of 500). And you got that 10% with one wager. It's certainly not easy, but it forces you to use money management skills.
You'd really have to place smaller wagers, i.e. $15, $20, or $25. It's a marathon, not a sprint. But in 26 months you have nearly 3/4 of a million. It can be done, and has been done. Certainly not by many though. It takes a lot of discipline and patience.
Good luck.
