    Pretty small. And probably less than turning 6k into 200 in 3 weeks!

    Depends on a lot of things. Are you straight betting, betting parlays or teasers, etc.? Are you flat betting, betting x%, or using Kelly? How many wagers do you plan on making? Are you betting with any edge?

    about 3% if you bet big enough, otherwise less.

    I turned 300 at BetJam into 2986.00 today
    That is just one day.
    You have to mix in a little casino and some quick action 1st Halves.

    Stop

    I turned $100 into $5400 at matchbook two years ago during baseball season.

    When I reached $5400 I got cocky and bet $2700 on the White Sox as dogs in Seattle, they scored 2 runs in the first inning and I was feeling great until the bottom of the first when Seattle scored SEVEN RUNS! Needless to say the wager lost and I cashed out the remaining $2700.

    3.125% IF you just take 5 even money games and parlay them into a 5 teamer. you will get 31-1 odds..

    if you hit all 5, you have turned it into 6200$.

    so you have a 3.125% chance..

    i think that is your best shot..

    I turned a free $50 freeplay into $1000 twice already so I don't think is hard to turn $200 into $6,000.

    I have won thousands upon thousands in the casino at all my books so the blanket statement that they are bad is crazy to me. I won 1485.00 today at BetJamaica casino. Baccarat - Multi-hand Blackjack - roulette - switch BlackJack - I play it all.

    EL SOL don't get me wrong I have lost close to 6000.00 in one day in the casino as well so it works both ways. I'm not a whale and don't want to come across as a dik. I just simply think you can make money in the casino.
