Since Thremp didn't, I'd answer that as, in this order, off the top of my head:

Limits on the soft sites, Bankroll, Patience, Time put in, getting cut off at weak sites, errors


The rest of Thremp's "Yes" answers are correct in my opinion, though...

1k/wk with just 10 hours work isn't realistic, without a good working knowledge of sports betting or sports in general. There is a definite learning curve. I don't think I could do it in 20 hours/week, and I've got over a year's experience sports betting. 40 hours/week is closer to realistic. Remember, you'll need to spend time examining bonus requirements, opening new accounts, talking to customer service, etc, in addition to searching out and making actual bets. Finding & placing bets is only half the work that needs to be done.

The 180k BR is probably sufficient, though, to maximize the various bonuses out there.

~40/hrs a week to squeeze out ~50k/year just doesn't seem worth it. Get a job you enjoy.

Depends if you find those lines in time and have the BR at the right places to make the bets.
