Day 11: 365 Day Bankroll Builder Challenge

Welcome to Day 11 of the 365 Day Bankroll Builder Challenge!

I’m not gonna lie — I had some fun Results today here on Day 11 and I get more and more excited each day to see where this Challenge ends up.

I’ll add $DEZ from DNA Racing to the mix today and I’ll get into that (and much more) below!


Day 11 (Feb. 15th, 2024) Results:

Day 11 started off with a Bankroll off $143.03, 1 Photo Finish Horse and 7 Zed Run Horses.

The “Sweepstakes” Casinos are an automatic daily bonus, easy enough to start there.

Sweeps Casinos:

It’s our 4th Blackjack loss in a row on Chumba which is certainly disheartening. The “Plinko” bounces on Stake were also pretty unfriendly to me and it makes for an underwhelming $1.78 from the Sweeps Casinos to start the day.

  • Pulsz – up $1.15
  • Stake – up $0.78
  • Chumba – up $0.00

Pokerstars:

Feels like we’re on a pretty bad losing streak here on Pokerstars as well. I was able to grab $0.94 back on Free Spins awarded for my Daily Bonus though, basically breaking even.

Pokerstars – down $0.06

FanDuel Sportsbook/Casino:

The Daily Rewards are usually useless, but today I was able to gain a whopping $0.20. ($0.50 Bonus minus some bad $0.10 hands of Blackjack)

I couldn’t find any Boosts on FanDuel yesterday, but I did find a nice little $9 win at Turfway Park with the Favorite!

FanDuel — up $9.77

DraftKings Sportsbook/Casino

The losing NCAA BB Streak continues. At this point, I might have to sell my March Madness tickets that I have because I am going to delay the whole Tournament or something.

Please don’t ever believe anyone who thinks I’m sharp.

Purdue -16.5 ($1.50 loss)

DraftKings — down $1.50

Zed Run: (sucks)

It really should be in tomorrow’s article; but reading Gen Chat today was hilarious. See the “DNA” section below.

They still know more than you, mate.

Zed Run — up $1.23

Photo Finish Live

Another incredibly fun day on Photo Finish!

This time, I found some Wagering Pools that had 1300 DERBY ($16) on 3 Horses in the Place Pool. It was a 6 Horse Race, so I figured it was worth my $3 Wager to see if I could sneak one of the other 3 Horses into the Top 2.

Not only did I get one — I got both, hitting the Exacta and taking allllll of the DERBY (minus some rake) for a sweet $13.36 profit with only $3 risk.

I did try to ‘eyeball’ the Horses a bit, I wasn’t just picking the worst ones here so it wasn’t like I got completely lucky or anything.

Either way, it was a cheeky $13 win to push this Challenge along!

Photo Finish — up $13.36

ESPN Bet

Oh geez, ESPN Bet. I’ve been saying such nice things about you… And then they posted the $1 bonus with the wrong slots so I lost $2.35 trying to play a $1 bonus. Ew.

I did win like 5 Blackjack Hands in a row with my bonus money though and cashed on 3 separate bets:

  • Tiger Woods O 70.5
  • Wash State -8.5
  • Memphis Grizz +13.5 (Why didn’t I take ML!!)

I moved $10 from this account to $DEZ – so overall we are technically down $2.08, but it was a great day here.

ESPN BET – down $2.08

DNA Racing

Sometimes, you have to bet on the jockey. I’m picking the hilarious and intelligent jockey seen in this exchange:

Seriously, how hilarious is that?? Ryan came away from that looking like a Double Laurent.

Anyway, DNA Racing has been on my radar for a long time and I want to just be accumulating $DEZ at this point in the Challenge on an even level with all of my other assets, so I added $10. (from ESPN)

I do plan on getting some Genesis Cores and I hope to expand a lot in this space. I did attempt to get a Trainer Bike, but I didn’t see any Free Tournaments open – so I’ll have to check back for that.

DNA — up $10.00

Day 11 Summary:

An awesome day with a few good Horse bet winners!

Total for Day 11: Up $31.34

In total, the Challenge Bankroll stands at:

  • $174.37
  • 1 Photo Finish Horse
  • 7 Zed Horses
