With a billion dollars you could offer NO JUICE and take on just about anyone at any amount... post up of course. That would definately be a way to see who really IS sharp. But with $1 Bil you could LOSE 10 mil a year and still saty in business 100 years.
You wouldn't even need to avertise. Just start a web site, post up your bank statements and say "come and get it boys". With no limits and a take no prisoner attitude you would put just about every book around out of business.
Also let guys name their own numbers. Say you have -110 and a guy calls in and says "Pin has -108", then give him -107 for whatever he wants. Basically say that you will beat any number out there.
That is all the advertising you would need.
the main things people want...
TO GET PAID (the billion takes care of that)
A GOOD number (the best number offer takes care of that)
NO LIMITS (the no limits and the billion take care of that)
Good customer service (with a billion dollars you could fly hookers to their houses with the checks [for a service fee])
That is all you need. Basically getting paid and not worrying about money are the tops of the list. Let evryone know the money you have, and it will be all you need.
Most of these offshore places don't have enough cash on hand to do anything with. It is all a balancing act for most of them. If they have 25% more than they owe out they are considered rich.
IMO a smart guy with soem saavy and the ability to play it straight with low overhead could start a book and be successful with a million dollars to cover bets. Probably another 50-65 grand for expences. Along with any other liscnecing and kick back fees he would need.
It isn't rocket science, but most people think that you have to be some sort of savant to make money running a book. All you need is a little cash and some steady clients.
I booked bets for 3 years in college. Covered most of them myself. It wasn't all that hard to make money. A little different now for sure. But 95% of bettors lose, the odds of getting the 5% that win all bettign with you is a stretch, but even if they did, the loser would mre than make up for the winners take.
