Quest for a Million

It’s everyone’s dream to be wealthy and successful. The key is to do what you are good at. What do I know at this point in my life? I am a college dropout in the air force that knows math and air traffic control. Oh wait, I also know sports. Sports are the only thing I have really been passionate about. I thought to myself a long time ago, “How can I make a living off sports when I am not big enough to play any at a high level?” Playing poker and loving the game gave me the opportunity I was looking for: gambling. Now, I know gambling isn’t the best way to make money, nor is it the safest. The more you gamble, the more you lose. However, the more you gamble, the more you win. It’s the cliché “live by the sword, die by the sword.” Seeing is this is something that intrigues me and something I feel pretty confident about, I am going to embark on a journey for a million dollars.

This quest will be a gambling brigade of all sorts. I will use any means necessary to win this million. Whether it is free betting through “Streak for the Cash,” poker tournaments, or golf course betting with friends, I will make this million. I noticed on my bravado site that I had $7.70 in my account. I figured that was the best place to start. So, this little bit of money is the starting point to this journey that will last as long as it takes. Putting a time limit on this would mean irrational decision-making and money lost. If there is one thing a gambler hates, it’s losing money. So, starting with the 7.70, I will double down. Ante up, and amass a total of a million or more. I will only limit myself to a few rules:

1.     All types of betting goes.

2.     I am able to take out half of my earnings every $1000, then $10000 when I get to that point.

3.     I am able to add up to $20 to my fund every month, unless I enter a poker tournament in which I can spend up to $120 dollars.

4.     I must report all betting on this blog.

5.     Have fun and accomplish my goal.

So with the rules and before my closing remarks, here is my first bet.

Miami Heat over the Spurs (Even) $7.70 to win 7.70

The Heat have won two in a row and been here four straight years. Though I am not a Lebron fan, one thing I will never be is a hater. I respect the game and respect his talent. It doesn’t hurt that he had to team up with four other stars to get to this point in his career. Win however you can right?

I hope to prove to myself and everyone else that I am able to succeed at something as obscure as gambling. I am willing to take suggestions and critics on my betting patterns and wages. Please feel free to comment or email the blog. SNPsports
