    Whatever you do - never, ever, and I mean NEVER... bet a parlay.   Best advice I can give you. Lastly, when in doubt find a hockey game with two good goalies and take the under. I once got pretty rich doing just that and only that. Good luck.

    Guy is in Vegas and isn't playing poker.... Sigh... What a shame.  I feel like you might be pressing here, you don't have to play everyday if there isn't anything out there. Take the night off and enjoy the company of a 'lady of the night' possibly?

    Strong plays for you to consider this week:
    All are in College Football and I am playing them for a dime each. My wager scale is a nickle to a dime per game. I and others will have write ups on these games at some point in the next day or two on the College Football Forum.
    New Mexico -7
    Houston -3
    Appalachian State +1

    Discipline discipline discipline... If you ever took up a diet and exercise regimen you know that achieving results takes time. Same thing with this. When I first started I would go on hot streaks and then burn up a lot of winnings when I started to smell myself. Took a few rounds of that before I reigned myself in and took the long road. I've got several years running playing with the fruits of my earlier investments. Learn your strengths and weaknesses. Be conservative and treat every dollar that the book hands you as your own, not like it's the house's money. That kind of thinking will have you giving it back in no time.

    Good luck man. I sincerely hope you are among those who actually mature in this arena.

    By the way, diet and exercise... it's no joke about how effective that is on keeping your mind healthy.

    Definitely get yourself some real estate. You can live in it and if you're in a market with decent growth, you can see your investment grow in a relatively short amount of time. The days of getting rich quick in real estate are long gone but it's still a profitable business if you can learn quickly. You got the stones to make it. Now you gotta execute.

    On MNF... I like Baltimore but I wouldn't bet the house on it LOL. I will probably just play a half unit on Baltimore. I had a huge weekend. Whenever that happens I get conservative during the week.

    Did Seton Hall lose a lot from last year?  Surprised a lot of experts r leaning SC despite being W.o Thornton and basically a home game for Seton

    I think its awesome that someone out there is living my dream as well.  Huge stones.   I think anyone who puts your efforts down here is wishing they could try this too.   My advice stay away from the "popular games".  Look for the dismissed games for example:  Jets vs San Fran.   The "at stake" games seem for me to be the ones that get me in trouble.   Tonight game is a game I would go small on.  My lean would be Ravens.  Just because getting 7 in the NFL is huge.  Good Luck

    GL but don't see this ending well.  You'll likely get hot, go on a nice streak, then lose it all when you go on tilt when you cant pick a winner.  As others said, u don't need to play a game every day.  Pick your spots.  Again, BOL hope you crush it.

    keep up what youre doing, I applaud you for having the courage to do this. I live in vegas and have successfully done this although my situation is different since I have a full time job that pays 6 figs.

    My advise with your bankroll is to stay away from table games and only the only card game you can do is poker, but no higher than 1/2 no limit. Dont be scared to bet big after capping a game and you find you have an edge. NFL playoffs are around the corner and this is where you can make bank, fading fraudulent teams like texans and giants if they make the playoffs will help grow your bank roll

    Holy smokes, the intelligent level of people

    So, all these people believe that some person quit/fired from his job and moved to Vegas with $30k and has come to covers.com on his quest to $100k....

    Christ....what is wrong with people and their stories....and the people who believe them

    Keep us informed - sounds fun or could be fun - also serous ...

    I'm liking Baltimore NFL tonite. I think Patriots are the oaky because I suck and makin selections. If I took Baltimore and lose then would look in the mirror next morning and realize I broke the don't play against Patriots at home rule.
    NHL - Boston is due to win and Montreal creamed Avalanche last game - I see a Boston team due and a patriots team that rolls...

    See a 2 team Boston parlay.

    BOL!

    I don't understand why people consider this dumb. I feel like betting in Vegas is the safer move than online considering you cash at the window. I feel like 5dimes likes to dick you around, so when you hot streak is over and you are waiting to cash out, you mess up and give some of it back.

    I was laid off last year and knew I was going to have a job waiting for me within 6 months. I had 8k from 5dimes and another 5k saved. I was 100% going to go stay in vegas for a few months to try this while I collected unemployment. Unfortunately I have a fiance that wasn't too keen on that.

    I say do it. I'd also say get a small part time job to at least pay for your living cost. 20 hours a week won't detract from your gambling.

    Good luck.

    I agree, with Boston being due a win against Montreal. I almost bet exclusively on home teams, but thanks for the pick, considering it.

    I also was leaning on the Houston bowl game play someone posted before, thanks, need to research that more but they seem to be underrated a few times this year. 

      I know I can take days off and Advocate for that....but in my situation I  need to take more chances for now.  I need to see if the Universe wants me here or not.  As crazy as that sounds. I need to get some money right now to let me know... if not than  I need to head back to Washington...

    If I can get up to 50 k I will most likely get my own apt or roommate situation and get a part time job  at-least.  
     
    I'm hoping I win today so I can rationalize keep going and switching hotels for a few days!
