poker and sport bet challenge. weekly profit share!!!

[QuadsPoker]

I always love to challenge myself. At this moment I am doing a 100$ trading challenge in the trading section. But as I love to gamble as well I want to start a small gambling challenge as well.

What am I going to do?

I am going to skip casino games for now. As a start I am going to focus on poker and sport betting. As I like challenges with a small starting balance I am going to do this here as well. I reserved a balance of 0.02BTC (70$ at this moment)

• 0.01BTC i have transferred to my betting balance
• The other 0.01BTC I have converted to fiat and will be deposited in my pokerstars account.

[/b]

Why pokerstars? Simply there is not a decent crypto poker room I love to play. And I have been playing on pokerstars for many years so I know the games and I love the offer.

My goal is just to have fun and try to build a decent bankroll with only 0.02BTC starting balance.

I am going to post my bets and my poker games every time I played a game or placed a bet.

Balances

10mBTC balance on Sportsbet.io



31$ deposit on pokerstars




Lets see what it gets. As a matter of fun and attract some followers and support I am going to share 10% of my PROFITS every week if profits are made of course.  How im going to share. Simply. If profits are made I just will randomly pick a a username that made a comment in my thread between the beginning and the end of the week. I am not going to post this in games and rounds cause the profit share is something additional. The main thing is to keep a gambling journal here.


ps: Regarding the poker. I am not a cash game player. I rather like to play tournaments and multi table SNGs

Goodluck on your target.

Quiet difficult to make a decent earnings (well depend on how much is that "decent") out from BTC0.01 in sports betting. It's possible but it will take time unless you can hit some risky odds or good parlays.

Goodluck on poker too. A fight between strategy vs strategy.

Aside from posting results, you can also give some details how you made that as part of reference by the others.

Again goodluck.

With our poker journey we took a good start. Wasn't able to play tournaments yesterday cause it was too late. So I decided to play some heads up games and a couple multi table SNGs. We managed to grow our our 31$ starting balance to 70.50$ balance

As I see you prefer playing in NL Hold'em Tournaments, and since they are my favorites too, I'm going to keep an eye on this thread in the future.

I've never played on PokerStars myself, but of course I know that it's one best poker sites in the world. I read that you can deposit Bitcoin through Neteller on PokerStars, so maybe I should try it some time.

Btw, do they have tournaments where the buy-in is just $1 but you can potentially win hundreds of USD because over 1,000 players participating? I like those ones.

I sincerely wish you good luck with your goals! Have fun and build a decent bankroll! All the best!

In your first update you showed your bets were 3 matches and then 2 matches.
Multiple games on the same bet are harder and noticed you did single matches instead.
This methods better to do when you are first starting out until you begin to get a winning streak going.
I dont know about the league you bet on so all I can say is good luck!

Yes of course. Pokerstars has the largest offer of tournaments. They offer multiple tournaments daily with 1-2$ buyins with a prizepool where winner takes 500-600-700$

And the knock-out or progressive knock-out tournaments are my favourite. In This games you can earn money for busting opponents. So you can win and profit even if you do not reach in the money

The highest probability to make money in this chhallenge I think is in Pokerstars because you rely on 3/4 skill there and 1/4 luck.

I don't think you or anyone else will be successful in sport betting as long as referees do impact the games and that is a fact in today soccer world.

Yeah I know with poker you still have the outcome a little in your own hands. Though I think that in sport betting money can be made as well. I am using software to track arbitrage and valuebets but thats only on fiat bookies. By betting on arbs and valuebets I managed to make some nice profits. By using this strategies you can also exclude a little bit the luck factor

I am going to skip casino games for now. As a start I am going to focus on poker and sport betting.

Wow! Another crypto adapter was born . I hope you will have a happy and prosperous gambling journey (Well, I can see that you are doing well, congrats). I just hope you will not encounter withdrawal issues in sportsbet because I've read few complaints regarding this issue but I guess those are only isolated cases so don't worry.

Lets see what it gets. As a matter of fun and attract some followers and support I am going to share 10% of my PROFITS every week if profits are made of course. 

Actually, this is not necessary at all but since you wanted to do this then I deeply appreciate it (For sure that others too). You're so kind, I hope you win more often in order to offer more help to the needy ones. God bless and good luck .

Never had any issues with withdrawals. also I do not mind to run through verification so I did. And since I got verified I receive all my withdrawals almost instantly. Longest wait was 20 minutes before it got processed. So no problems or issues at all.

I always fear for people when they publicly start these chaplenges, they usually always end in failure & then the OP’s credibility is damaged if he tries to do something similar again.

Good luck OP, I hope you do it

Update 2


2 bets placed for this afternoon. Coppa primavera Italia (U19)

So how are your bets going for the challenge?
I played it safe today with alot of championship cup games going on.
Over on corners for Barcelona FC and Paris St.Germain today with Manchester city getting over 2.5 goals in their matchup.
And did a little bet on a coup de france match during live betting. Maybe it might be better to do these to build up your bankroll.

I think this one is different and the OP looks serious on this. Well, the challenge is good for you to work harder and yeah we hope for the success of the OP since its too risky to gamble and I know this is not an easy bet, you can do it and i will visit this thread again to have some update for the result of this challenge.

Update 2

Gonna do Some proper updates tomorrow. Have been a hectic day and i placed different bets. In differen accounts. And rest of the evening i am doing Some poker games

I have seen this thread yesterday I am impressed that you have daily updates, Cryptocurrency or fiat, it is still a betting game. I do understand your enthusiasm with betting games but I know as well that you are ready to get disappointed since betting game is always the worst thing as you win and lose based on luck and strategy to tilt your competition and yes, the guts but the greed is the number one enemy.

As far as I can remember, in poker, there is an average ratio of 1:5 where people win once and lose 4 times.
Well, it's all up to you mate and good luck with your betting career!

Gonna update a little more properly. Yesterday it was a very hectic day.

Balance




Summary after 2 days.


Starting balance 0.02BTC -> 0.01BTC sport betting
                                     -> 0.01BTC (31$) pokerstars

Current balances: sport betting  0.01244BTC                        +24.4%
                           poker            0.02838BTC (100.88$)        +183.8%


Total balance:  0.04082BTC

In some way and with the help of the poker gods I managed to double my total bankroll in 2 days. I know this isn't a regular result. Downswings can occur at any time. But well a 100$ poker balance gives some more room to play than a 30$ bankroll

Congrats, mate! Those are great achievements! I'm not that experienced in sports betting, but poker is my love, and I know how it feels taking, say, the 5th place in a tournament with hundreds of other players. That's rare but it happens, and it feels so good. Btw, the 1st place with 24 participants is not that bad too. Grats again, keep it up!

[leea-1334]

0.01 BTC is not a small balance,,, but at least you have set these targets as your maximum loss for experiment. You bet quite big for sports though, odds are lower than x2 payout, so it is a risky gain, because a loss can wipe out all of those. Double in 2 days is of course possible for 50% of people who try this right? Good luck to you anyway.

[DeathAngel]

Going well so far, hope you can do it OP. I really want to see somebody complete one of these public challenges
