Okay, I'll give it a shot. What are the top five best bets to make right now? Here are the criteria:

1. you're top 5 have to be something that someone would conceivably give action on. In other words, a great bet is not, "i'll bet you $50 the sun will come up in the east tomorrow." However, "I bet I could beat you in a game of tic tac toe (cat wins is a push)" could potentially (although unlikely) be a good bet if you could find someone stupid enough to take it (I just use this example because I made money on tic tac toe in high school.).

2. The max wager is $500. This rules out some sure thing gambles like buying 20 million barrels of oil hoping the price might go up in the next 10 years.

Modify criteria as you see fit but stick your neck out and give us a few high percentage plays....actually now that I think about it, doing this might be a bit too risky for you. Maybe you could ask others their top five and then critique them as you see fit. This would undoubtedly be instructive.
