Proper Cover for Exotic Wagers

[Joeflex]

Hello EOG

I like to make exotic wagers and as you all know, the limits on these are ridiculously low- many are a mere $500 and quite often its only $250. Its really not a lot but still they're +EV so I try to make them.

I've been booted from some places so what would you think the best cover strategy to be? Let's say I want to make 1-3 $500 wagers a day. Here are two possibilities: 1) Make 1-3 $500 wagers on straight bets and other things and hope my $500 prop bets are just lost here (of course I could make more straight bets but I normally won't have that many selections so that's no good) or 2) Make a larger bet, say $3-6K, 3 or 4 times a week. On the one hand, you'd think the casinos want this action but now you're flagged for making huge bets in a family casino where most bet $20, and some are such unreal pussies and now you win 3 in a row and they think you have inside information, hate your prop action, and boot you quicker. Theoretically, in case 2, they'd say, "well we don't like his prop bets, but he's betting around 10 times that on regular Widely Available sides so we'll let him have his fun and grind him down on juice."

Any ideas on this? :+clueless

Hi Shrink

Thanks for the hospitality.

Thats a novel answer. I'm not sure what I would say. The problem with this approach is it seems high-risk. By making a big deal of wagering exotics, I make it clear that I've been around the block. Also, I have no chance of slipping under the radar as I'm going to a mangement position and telling him my intentions.

Would you mean going to a manager and saying something like, "Heya buddy, how you doin'? Yeah I wanna bet some of these here props and I've had problems in the past, y'know they don't like me bettin' these tings and I'm wonderin' how much should I bet on udder tings to make you an' me bot happy." Like that (not exactly frank as I'm pretending to be an opinionated New Jersey moron but upfront in my intentions of what I want to bet and how best to do it)? Or do you mean both upfront and frank where I explain the +EV of these exotics and ask how much side action I need (which is also hopefully +EV) to wager on them? Can you be a bit clearer? This could be a whole new paradigm for me in wagering.
