Betting Marathon: From $60 to $1,800

[VashaUdacha777]

Hello everyone, and greetings to all sports and betting funs !

The Challenge

I’m starting with a $60 bankroll, with the ultimate goal of reaching $1,800.

This thread is mainly about discipline and keeping myself accountable.

My plan is to bet 2% of my current bankroll per day.

For my bets, I chose GAMBA, mainly because I liked the fact that it provides a statistics section where I can track my weekly and monthly profit.

I don't want to flood the forum with daily updates, so I decided to post my results once a month instead.

At the beginning of each month, I’ll update this thread with the previous month's statistics in a format similar to the screenshot below.



The Goal

To keep the marathon from dragging on forever, I’ve set myself a simple target:

I need to double my bankroll every two months.

If I fail to double my bankroll by November 1st, the marathon is over.

The starting point is September 1st, and the target milestones are:

September 1: $60 — Start
November 1: $120
January 1: $240
March 1: $480
May 1: $960
July 1: $1,800 — Final Goal

If I fail to reach the required bankroll at any of these milestones, the marathon will be considered finished.

Of course, I know that turning $60 into $1,800 is a very ambitious goal. The main purpose of this challenge is to see how far I can actually get while sticking to my rules and maintaining proper bankroll discipline.

Let's see what happens. 

I wish everyone here good luck

Let us know when you failed to keep that target, because this is the part where most people that created similar topics failed to do, once the plan go against them they won't come back.

I wish you all the best and losing $60 won't get you killed anyway,  even if you can't afford to lose it which I don't advice though, but I want you to know that this is gambling not trading.

I would advice anyone to do this plan like on trading rather than gambling, because trading has stop losses, it is safer than gambling, you can choose to use spot trading which has the minimal risk compared to leverage, but you do you, all the best.

You want to use $60 to earn $1800 in 11 months. That can look possible, but it would really be hard to achieve, provided if you achieved it. Gambling should just be for fun and not something that people should be using to target a particular goal achievement. But I really like how you post about it, just let us know how it is going. I think monthly updates is far and boring, but I will put this thread under watch.

This is not the first time I’ve seen a thread trying to achieve long-term success in sports betting, and honestly, none of those I followed managed to finish their challenge or keep updating until the end.

So I hope yours will be different, and I wish you success. Having a long-term goal and being willing to track the results is already a good start. I’m interested to see how far you can take this.

Sir, you have my word — I promise that as soon as my bankroll hits $0, I’ll immediately post an update here in this thread!

Sir, I understand that updating the thread only once a month might be a bit boring. But on the other hand, I think posting daily, repetitive updates about the same thing would just clutter up the forum.

For me, this marathon is just a bit of entertainment, and I fully understand the responsibility that comes with it.

I also wish you all the luck you need.

You have set a challenging goal that has a higher chance of failing. Once in a while, such threads come up on the forum and the OP doesn't always achieve their goals, and the thread dies. Gambling is an unpredictable space, so there is no certainty that you would make  $1,800 by July 1st. But if Mother Luck is on your side, you can even win more. I have never used the gambling site you mentioned, and it is not popular here.

OK fine I wish my BSFL brother good luck in this venture

However,,, how will we know you kept your limit to 2% bankroll? And what is your profit stop limit per day? I mean,,, I guess the question is how will we know you really tried on first attempt and not made 2nd or 3rd deposit?

Not distrusting you of course,,, just wondering why this thread will be different from all?

[Charcol]

The goal you want to achieve is quite difficult. However, I don't want to discourage you. There are a few things, betting 2%, updating once a month, ending the challenge if you don't reach a certain milestone, these, to me at least, create some control against betting on emotions or trying to recoup losses. The goal you have is $60 to $1800 which is a 30x capital increase. But the problem is that if you want to double your capital by betting 2% of your current capital every day every two months, then on average you need a net profit of about 57% from each bet.

However, I have doubts about your calculation. You said that you will double it every two months. But my question is if it is $960 on May 1, then by July 1, it should be $1920. Your ultimate goal is $1800. This is not a big problem, but if the rules are clear, there will be less confusion later.

For me it would be ideal you update it every week to know your progress, of course if you don’t mind I will also ask for you to be including the games that you are betting on and your options so we could also track the winning progress as well. Because most time you could ran out of funds and you may deposit additional funds without us knowing that you have lost all the initial amount deposited on the gambling site that you were using to accomplish your marathon.
Anyway, I wish you good luck.
