game that has plus 100 odds plus 100, meaning you get one to one on your money.
So if you put $2,000 against on the Patriots on this side,
$2,000 on the Dolphins on this side, one of those books is going to win.
So that 2000 is going to migrate to another book.
Now you're going to have a balance of 4001 and zero in the other.
Well, the book that you lost in, they're going to be like,
this guy sucks at gambling. Let's give him another bonus.
All right, guys, we got Nathan here
with an interesting way to make some money.
Yes, track the code.
Yeah, what do you call this method?
So, well, I call it bet sniping,
but it's a pretty new concept actually.
A lot of people are sports betting,
get involved in betting, everyone loves doing that. The crazy thing about sports betting is 97% of people
lose their money.
And the reason why is because sports books
usually give bonuses when you make deposits
and sign up for an account.
And let's just say for an example,
you deposit $1,000, they're gonna give you $1,000,
but you can't just withdraw that $2,000.
They make you bet a certain volume before you could withdraw the money and 97% of people lose their money in that game
So I figured out a way how to beat that game and make money no matter what Wow
So you claim basically people can make money from sportsbook without gambling?
Yes
What I'm doing is not gambling because gambling is like picking one side of a sporting event and hoping that team wins, right?
Hoping. So what I'm doing is I'm using house money to bet on both sides of a game and win no matter what.
So I don't really care who wins. As long as the game ends,
then I'm gonna make money. And they always end. They always end. Damn, yeah.
I've seen your calendar because you post like screenshots of your earnings and And almost every day was green. I think like 26 were green.
Yeah, well, so the green days are great, but red days aren't bad either.
Because the way it works is if you get given a thousand dollar bonus,
you can sacrifice a little bit of that money to move the money around
and to complete their rollover requirement that allows you to withdraw.
So the red days aren't bad. It's part of the process.
I know, I guess if you first see it, it might look like I lost't bad. It's part of the process. I know, I guess, I guess if you first see it, it might look like I like loss some, but that's, that's
part of the process. So red days aren't bad. Like some days just happen to end, um, and
red and they weren't that big of losses. I think you lost like a couple hundred on those
days on average. Yeah. Yeah. And again, that's part of the process. That's part of how you
extract the money from the sports book. You know, they give you ten thousand dollars and you sacrifice 500 of it, you're up
$9,500 like you know what I mean? Yeah, how much knowledge do you personally have of sports? I
Actually don't watch sports too much
I started I started doing this seven months ago prior to this. I had no experience
Actually, I don't watch a lot of sports because I honestly just hate the ref's calls.
A ref call that could be wrong determines the outcome of a game.
And that just bothered me so much.
I used to watch sports 10 years ago.
I've started to watch sports while doing this.
It makes it a little bit more interesting, but it's definitely not required.
You don't have to have any knowledge about sports or even watch the games.
That's nuts.
I placed 30 bets today and I haven't watched a game.
Are you serious? Because it doesn't matter. I'm going to win no matter what. Wow. That's nuts. Like I placed 30 bets today and I haven't watched a game. Are you serious?
Because it doesn't matter.
I'm gonna win no matter what.
Wow, that's crazy.
And doesn't matter what sport you're betting on?
So there's a software that I use
to show which pair of bets to bet on.
Because if you notice, like if you go to a sports book,
if you go to one sports book
and try to bet on both sides of a game,
you'll notice that you'll lose about 10, 15% of your money because there's that spread that the sportsbook has to make money, right?
But what happens is if you use two different sportsbooks, the lions, the odds for a game
will change based off of the betting volume. So let's say you have like the Patriots versus
the Dolphins, like a football game. On platform A, everybody's betting heavy on the Patriots.
On platform B, everybody's betting heavy on the Dolphins. like a football game. On platform A, everybody's betting heavy on the Patriots.
On platform B, everybody's betting heavy on the Dolphins.
That's gonna move the Lions and create an opportunity
to either profit a little bit on betting on both sides
or just losing a little bit.
So when you get all these bonuses,
the whole goal is to not lose money.
It's just to lose as little money as possible
to beat their game in order to withdraw.
Got it.
That's interesting.
Yeah, it's crazy.
And what type of setup would you need for this?
Do you need a fancy computer?
Like, is it a day trading setup?
No, there's a website that has software
that shows you everything.
You just log in and then you just go
to the sports post websites and place the bets.
Like it tells you what bets to do, so you go find that bet.
And there's even a calculator that's built into the software
that shows you how much you bet on both sides.
Because the odds can change and be all crazy,
it could be hard to just know off the top of your head.
So you literally just like plug in a number,
it spits out the other number,
and then you just put those numbers in
and you bet them at the same time.
Wow, do you have to be super quick with it?
Cause I know the lines change kind of fast sometimes, right?
They can change while you're doing it,
which is why I tell people to have both bets up
and then double check the odds
and then place them at the same time.
But even then the odds can change slightly.
So as long as you, as long as you-
If you're building something,
doesn't matter if it's a business, a brand,
or just a better version of yourself,
then you already know the work never really stops.
Your brain is always on.
Ideas at 2 a.m., problems at three, plans at four.
But here's the truth, if you never shut down,
you're going to crash, fast.
That's why I use Sambrosa.
It's not hype, it's not some trendy sleep hack,
it's a legit syrup that helps you fall asleep
when your brain won't let you.
You take it and 20 to 30 minutes later,
you're out. Not groggy, not drugged up just to sleep like
you're supposed to be. Then you wake up clear with no brain
fog, no dragging yourself out of bed, you get your hours in and
you actually feel like you slept. Sleep isn't optional.
It's not self care. It's strategy. If you're not getting
it right, you're leaving energy, focus and money on the table.
Sambrosa helps me sleep. It helps me execute, that's the only reason I talk about it.
You want to get ahead, start by getting real rest.
Check out the link below in their website, www.sambrosasambrosa.com.
Their calculator to just recalculate that difference, then you'll be fine.
You might lose a little bit more
than you originally planned, but that's fine.
But the opposite can happen too.
You could also place one side
and then the other side could improve.
So, you know, it-
Goes both ways.
Yeah, yeah, it goes both ways.
For people watching this
because they're all over the country,
is there better states or cities to do this system with?
So you could do this in any state.
So there's two types of sports books.
There is domestic sports books that are located in the US,
and then there's international sports books.
And all the international sports books,
you could do anywhere in the country,
but there's a handful of US states
that have access to domestic sports books,
and those are a little bit more advantageous if you
do live in one of those states.
However, you do not need to be in one of them.
Like Arizona, Colorado, North Carolina, Ohio.
There's like probably 13 states that have the majority of all the books.
And I've actually even traveled to those to those states for a day
I've flown to an airport just a place a bunch of bets and then flown out same day
I've done that like five times. You couldn't use a VPN. So no their websites are too sophisticated
And they actually the domestic sites the domestic sports books. They actually have you download software that
Allows them to track where you
are.
It's called GeoComply.
This is the company and you have to download the software and before you, as you're logging
into the website, it'll just confirm your location and there's no way to spoof it.
If they detect you're using a VPN or remote software or anything like that, they'll give
you a warning and if you keep on trying to bypass it, then they'll just shut you down.
They'll ban you, yeah.
Yeah. Sportsbooks do not care about any, about you at all.
Like if you, if they think you're a liability or a risk to them, which I am,
then they'll, they'll, they'll close you down.
How scalable do you think this is?
Cause I know you're making like tens of thousands right now.
Right?
Yeah.
I actually just had my record month in April, 30 grand, 30 K.
Yeah.
So it's gone up from there.
Um, but what was your question?
Like, do you think, cause your mentor even made 60K, I think you told me, right?
In a month.
Well, this wasn't my mentor. This is just a friend of mine.
Yeah.
60K is really high.
It's hard to say that someone could make a hundred K in a month doing this,
but to find like an internet opportunity that is no risk
like this, that doesn't take all day.
Like I literally spend 30 minutes to two hours a day,
just depending on how much I'm doing it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Once I wake up in the morning,
I just look at the software,
it shows all the betting opportunities
and I just place all the bets.
And then once you've staked everything,
then you just watch the app and wait
till the games get over and then you restake again.
So I mean an hour a day to make 30k a month, that's a K an hour.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's crazy. It's super crazy.
$1000 an hour if you do the math. That's nuts dude. I love that.
And it's like you said the risk is low because I mean what's the most you've lost I guess?
Like what's the riskiest thing that's happened?
So I did have a record month close to 31 K April, but I actually made 5 K in
mistakes, Dan, you could have made 35 K.
Yeah.
30 closer to 36.
Yeah.
So, um, there's the only way to really lose doing this is by user error.
And there's times where, I mean, I'm just thinking about something
else, just going through the motions.
At this point I've placed close to 7,000 bets.
So sometimes I just am thinking about other things. I'm really fast on a computer and sometimes I'm too fast and I just
slow down and pay attention to what I'm doing.
But, um, yeah, I've made a few, like you added a zero, didn't you?
It's more like, uh, I didn't, I didn't see the odds, right.
Or just, just a stupid mistake.
You know, you, you enter a number and click submit.
Once you click submit, then that bet's submitted.
You can't take it back.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you actually can cancel on some sites
and sacrifice five or 10%.
But I'd rather just gamble at that point.
So I made a few mistakes and I was like,
fuck it, let it ride.
And then I lost those bets.
I mean, damn.

Crazy about this whole thing is like, yes, 97% of people lose their money.
I've actually made a few just regular bets, not betting on both sides.
And over the long term, I'm fucking down doing that.
Like there'll be a super favored team and you're like, Oh, this team's, this team's
a lot and you put a thousand dollars on it.
And then the underdog wins.
Just, I don't know why, but like, it's just the craziest thing.
So the only way to win is actually just by using house money
to bet on both sides, no risk.
Like that's the only way to guarantee
that you could actually make money with sports.
I mean, they want you to bet on emotion.
Totally.
That's how they win.
They love it.
They love that.
They want people like that.
That's why it's so profitable for them
because sports is very, for most people,
is very emotional.
You have a team, you have a player.
Yep. You want to see them win and you're at by the TV like, ah.
Yep. And the only people that make money are probably the ones doing this or like just
super autistic.
Well the one way to get an advantage is to be at the game live because the sports books
get their information.
I mean, they probably also have people at the game live, like just giving information. But the only way I'd see making money aside from what I'm
doing is like being there live and live betting. Like if, uh, I dunno, LeBron James just rolls
his ankle and is out for the game as being the first to act like, you know, there's certain
scenarios maybe you can get an edge, but, um, even with those though, I've heard live
arenas ban the sports betting apps.
Yeah, I've actually never done that.
But like, yeah, I'd imagine they wouldn't want people doing that because their systems and all the sports books have to change their odds based off what's happening.
That's why there's a delay with TV.
Right. I think so.
That's why there's such an edge, I think.
Yeah, it's not in people's favor at all.
Again, 97 percent of people lose their money. And sports books are making billions.
I think it was, I think just in the US,
could be wrong in this.
It was like 10 or 20 billion last year.
I think 20 billion and they're doing,
they're growing like 25% year over year right now.
So sports books and sports betting, blown up.
And it's only becoming more regulated.
So there's only more sports books and more bonuses
that are entering the market every year.
Since I've started this seven months ago,
there's already been two new sportsbooks
that make what I'm doing way easier.
So I'm really optimistic about the future.
Yeah, let's dive into the bonuses,
because some people watching this might not know
what that is, but you've made 10 grand
off a bonus before, right?
Yeah, yeah, so these sportsbooks
will give you deposit matches.
So they want you to deposit,
let's say a thousand dollars and they're going to match that and give you a
thousand dollars, but you can't just pull that out. You have to bet.
Let's just say if they, they give you what's called a rollover requirement.
So they'll say, if we gave you a thousand dollars, your balance is 2000 now,
and we're going to slap a 10 X rollover,
meaning you have to bet $20,000 worth of bets before you can withdraw.
So naturally, I mean, if bet $20,000 worth of bets before you can withdraw. So naturally, I mean, with $2,000, you'd have to win a lot of bets in order to
complete that.
And then if you still have money, then you can withdraw.
So 97% of people lose that game and just lose their initial thousand.
So the way I'm doing it is if two, if you deposit a thousand dollars on two
different sports books and they both match that now you have $4,000 for conversation sake, let's say,
let's say you're betting on a game that has plus 100 odds, plus 100,
meaning you get one to one on your money.
So if you put $2,000 against on the Patriots on this side,
$2,000 on the dolphins on this side, one of those books is going to win.
So that 2000 is going to migrate to another book.
Now you're going to have a balance of,000 in one and zero in the other.
Well, the book that you lost in,
they're gonna be like, this guy sucks at gambling.
Let's give him another bonus.
So they're gonna give him another bonus.
We're gonna deposit 1,000.
They're gonna give us 1,000.
Now we have 6,000.
It costs us 3,000.
Now our balance is 6,000, right?
I know I'm holding the seven up, but 6,000.
No, that makes sense.
So it makes, it's honestly like something you should do
with your, your partner and your friends too.
Yeah. In fact, every single person that has an ID
is eligible for all these books.
Hmm. 21 plus though, right?
Or is it 18?
That's actually a great question.
Might be.
I'm much older than 21, so.
Maybe it depends by state actually.
But yeah, I mean, it's, mean, it's probably 18 or 21.
I guess I need to know that,
because I just started Bets and I have risen.
People might be joining underage.
So yeah, but as long as you're over 18 or 21,
I got to figure out what that is.
Anybody is eligible to get all these bonuses
from the sports books.
And I've opened 20 different sports books.
You don't have to use all 20,
but I'm crazy with this and I scale things up.
So I've opened 20 different sports books. They all give bonuses and I'm crazy with this and I scale things up. So I've opened 20 different sports books.
They all give bonuses and I'm hedging it around betting on both sides, using
house money, withdrawing it.
And the great thing about international books, let me just jump over to, you
know, I was talking about domestic books, international books, international
books, they use crypto.
So I'm actually, I actually bought a bunch of crypto, bought a bunch of
Bitcoin and then you cycle the money.
So you put, you have Bitcoin, you deposit in the sports books, and then you withdraw back
into the, uh, your Bitcoin wallet and you're cycling that.
So all of that's not coming in and out of your bank.
If that was going in and out of your bank account, it'll be, it'd be a little bit more
complicated with taxes, but a little bit, little bit simpler if it's a Bitcoin wallet
because you're only reporting taxes
when it enters your bank account.
So, yeah.
No, that's brilliant.
I didn't know the offshore ones let you deposit crypto.
That's cool.
Yeah, and 90% of what I do is international books.
That's brilliant.
So you mentioned a community earlier
that you're starting, right?
Cause you're a few months into this now and you feel like you can coach others.
And have you had any student success yet?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I have three people so far.
I actually took two friends out to Arizona and just tested to be like,
okay, let's see how much these guys can make.
Taught them, taught them what's up.
And one made four grand in the first three days and the other one made 2,500.
Damn.
Yeah, so you're either gonna make a lot
or you're gonna make a decent amount.
It's like you're gonna make money today
or you're gonna make tomorrow.
Either way, it's good.
Some people get luckier than others,
but as long as you're doing the training correctly,
like what we train,
then you'll make money no matter what.
I like the business model too,
because a lot of businesses to make money these days,
you gotta either deposit a lot of money or a lot of time.
But it sounds like with this,
you can make some money off the rip.
I definitely gotta say there's a learning curve
if somebody has never been on sports before.
It took me a couple of weeks to truly understand odds
and the sports books.
A lot of sports books will call the same thing
two different things.
So that can be really confusing to people.
So I'd say there's about like a two week learning curve.
You really got to apply yourself and just learn something,
just like with anything.
You just learn it and then it gets really easy.
Like I've, I've boiled this down to like 30 minutes to two hours a day.
Like really I could just jump in there in the morning,
place a handful of bets, really be done for the day.
I mean, that's impressive.
Yeah. But two weeks to learn a skill that could potentially last years.
I mean, who knows how long this will last.
It seems worth it to me.
Well, that's, I always talk about this to people and they ask how long is this
going to last and it's like, well, it looks like it's getting easier.
Sports books are opening up all the time and they have to have these enticing
bonuses to get people to deposit and they're competing with the next sports book.
So it almost seems like they're racing to have bigger bonuses.
Like there's this one sportsbook where I deposited $750 and they had a, they had a, uh, what was it?
They had a 750% bonus.
Damn.
So I deposited 750 and my balance was 4250.
So they gave me $3,500 for depositing 750.
Now it comes with a big rollover, right?
But because I know how to beat that system,
anytime I see a bonus like that,
I'm like, this is just, they're handing me money.
Merry Christmas.
Yeah. That's insane.
And what's crazy is I actually cleared it and got that,
they usually have a window,
like a one week or a two week window that they'll
give you that bonus. So I actually deposited seven 50 cleared that,
meaning my balance hit zero in that book and I won it in a different book.
And then I did that bonus again.
So I actually made seven grand in like two weeks off of one book. Yeah.
And then there's all the other books that I'm doing. Wow.
So you got to look out for those opportunities,
those deposit bonus opportunities.
Yeah, so that's why I created Bet Snipers
because there's a lot of ways that you could do it wrong
and lose money.
And so the training is essential,
but also I just have a feed of all the bonuses.
I mean, I'm doing this every day,
so I'm just sharing what I've done right.
And then even my mistakes,
because those really help people. And then just all the new bonuses, I'm just really on top've done right. And then even my mistakes, cause those really help people.
And then just all the new bonuses.
I'm just really on top of just all these bonuses.
That's like, that's what I do right now.
I love it.
So for people watching, message you on Instagram.
Is that the best spot?
Yeah, Nathan Media on Instagram.
I just launched Bet Snipers.
Bet Snipers is amazing.
It's betsnipers.co.
We'll put a link in the video too.
Yeah, yeah.
There's 22 people that joined so far.
I just started this last week.
Nice.
It's really exciting.
A lot of people are watching the course right now.
Some people have gotten started.
Um, everyone's excited about it and yeah, that's, that's the goal is to build a community.
So 10 years ago, I actually created, oh, I wasn't the CEO of this company, but I became
the face of a company that had a hundred thousand users, a hundred thousand users.
We taught drop shipping.
So I created two courses that taught eBay to Amazon drop shipping.
20,000 of those people took my advanced training and I built that community.
I was running around speaking at seminars, doing webinars every week.
And yeah, it was crazy watching so many people have success again, with
just like an internet opportunity.
And in fact, the way that we were doing it was a no overhead strategy. So anybody that has just a bank account, you could have $0 in your bank account
and you can scale up a business with no overhead.
Because you'd sell the product for more expensive than someone's buying
and send it to them for cheaper.
So you take their money.
They would send you $100 for buying something.
You would take that $100, buy something for $70, send it directly to them. So it's a no
overhead way. No advertising either because you're selling on eBay and Amazon. So I have
a knack for these internet opportunities. This will be my second time creating a mentorship
program and I think people are just going to knock this out of the park.
I can't wait to see it, man. Let's, let's make some money sports betting, I guess.
Yeah.
I feel so weird to say that.
Yeah. Your fiance is going to join this.
Yeah. Ariel is joining.
I think she might've started the training already.
Yeah. I'm really curious to see what she says.
Yeah. She wanted to be an actuary when she was in college.
So I think she'll be good at this too.
Oh yeah. With numbers.
No, she's, she's, she's great with numbers.
So she'll definitely be an early success story.
Oh yeah. Well, stay tuned guys.
Check out the link in the video if you're interested or message him on Instagram. I'll see you next time. She's great with numbers, so she'll definitely be an early success story. Oh yeah. Well, stay tuned guys.
Check out the link in the video if you're interested or message him on Instagram.
