Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition on Playstation 4 (PS4)

Good source of starting funds Hints

Once you are able to bet in the fights, go to the arena on the far left of you're map. The fight arenas have a betting cap, but the one on the far left does not.

Save the game immediately before talking to the betting guy at the front of the arena. Then, place a bet for the maximum amount of money you have available. If you do not win, just reload your saved game and try again.

Repeat as many times as necessary.
