Still feel there isn't a good book out there for how to hunt for EV and strategy for signing up at books and getting max value out of them.

Careful what you wish for. A book that showed where certain outs could be exploited is certain to force them to make necessary adjustments. Any author that exposes specific info like this would be a fool to do so.

[mrmarket]

There's no real wrong answer to your question IMO and it all depends on your motivations.

If you want to do this on larger scale at some point in the future it would probably be better to save your weak outs and max bet them until you're banned. I regret signing up at the weaker books and getting banned now because I've left money on the table. I guess the other facet of this approach would simply be to learn, and save the $100.00 until you've got enough money to reach that point.

If you're still learning about BRM and have psychological issues in that area betting $1.00 per game with a $100.00 bankroll may be appropriate. I personally think it's ridiculous and would suggest taking shots with the $100.00 on weak numbers and hope you land on the good side of variance. I know people poo poo that idea generally but you should consider the utility of the money.

Of course if you don't have an edge it's rather useless to be arguing about BRM. Treat the money as a budget and bet the amount that won't adversely affect you financially but is enough to give a few shots of dopamine into your monkey brain while sweating a game.

Unfortunately, many of the posters here have more experience at turning 1k to $100 than vice versa.

Buy Apple Stock. Much better chance.

Rubes on forums asking Qs like this, tsk, tsk.

First off, you can't buy a share of AAPL with $100. Second, even if you could buy a partial share, you would be expecting the worlds biggest company to be 10 times bigger!!! There's never been a trillion dollar company before, and now you're expecting a 6 trillion dollar company?

(Granted, you probably recommended that tongue in cheek)

i would consider it a huge failure and a waste of time. ffs, if you put 100$ in a bank and do nothing you'd have at least 105$ in a year...

back to the topic, choose bets wise, place them for 5-20 $ and you should do well, don't know how much experience you have, but over time you should learn what to look at when betting

also, try to avoid MLB,NBA, NFL and top5 european football leauges. there is much less chance you ll get rich from 100$ when betting on those leagues.

What bank is paying 5% interest annually? Can't even get half of that on a 5-year CD last time I checked.

I'd love to hear good handicappers' thoughts. Please let me know how you approach this small bankroll and make it grow. 5$ bets seem pointless maybe 20 but what do you all think

I turned a $40 deposit to $270 by spot betting.

Take your time, pick your spots, patience is virtue. Make one bet per week or even one bet per month.

People who are new to gambling should only deposit $100 or less and bet very small. So they don't go bankrupt. Better to lose $100 than $10,000.

Avoid Sports that have more luck than skill, hockey and baseball because the moneyline is never at -500 or greater favorite.

Bet on Sports that do have -500 or greater favorites: football, basketball, mma, boxing and tennis. More skill than luck on these sports.

I'd suggest just talking a shot on a three team parlay. A $100 isn't really worth using alot of stategic plays.

[Regul8er]

I turned $100 into over 1K twice in the past month.
Cashed out the majority both times, now I'm out completely.

The money has helped out a lot, and will save for a month or so, and try again.

Not true, I've managed to do a lot with $100, you just need to take it slow at first. Only bet when you 100% believe in the play.

Agree 100%. Respect your bankroll, however small. Old adage: "A fool and his money are soon parted."

If the only goal is to take $100 into $1,000 then go purchase 100 scratch off lotto tickets. If you plan to continue on in sports betting, then here is the reality.

Find a capper that can consistently hit 55% or better (less than 1% of this board). And don't avoid parlays if you find someone that can hit in the neighborhood of 58% consistently.

Even with that, the reality is you can expect to make like 4% max per year in sportsbetting, unless one of the many sharps here can refute that with statistical data.

I'd start with books J7 mentioned, but also read up on Kelly. not because his system works, as it is built on the false assumption that any person living or dead can accurately gauge his edge and place a numerical value on it. But it is good information to consume and in the course of which you will also be exposed to Gamblers Ruin.

Or find a syndicate that will let you buy in for $100.

Split in half and take 2 shots at hitting 5 straight ...

50----100-200-400-800-1600

Repeat as necessary...

5-0 gives you 1600 and you have 32 tries at it before you are out 1600$ ...

Stringing 5 wins together isn't too hard if you use discipline ...

works..

"How to Gamble if You Must : Inequalities for Stochastic Processes" by Dubins and Savage (1965)

advocates 'bold play' -- the strategy that at every fortune x, 0 < x < g stakes the entire fortune x or just
enough to reach the goal g, whichever is smaller, given that the bettor has access to fair bets with probability p < 1/2.

[SteveRyan]

There is no solid advice for turning $100 into $1000

However, if I was desperate; I would put it all on a 4 team parlay with two spread picks and two totals.
