    LT Profits

    I am trying to be respectful in my questions below.

    LT is down 100+ units and isn't beating any sport.


    • Is this real money or is it just posting to keep track?
    • Especially if it's real money, why wouldn't you just stop playing?
    • How large must your bankroll be to withstand this pounding?
    • Do others fade LT or follow him? Seriously, his college basketball has a win rate of 46.8%. With a decent sample size, LT is now a true mathematical fade at -110 and a serious money maker at -105 juice


    I hate to see anyone lose, but I am seriously considering fading him for the Tournament.

    The number of post I have made in 5 years, is irrelevant. Agreed LT is a respected member of the "community" but that does not make him a winner at sports betting.

    He's not gonna offer you "amounts". That's not his style & frankly none of our God damn business. I offer amounts & I'm very specific on what I win & lose as far as US currency, probably not the smartest thing to do anyway. Even though my last thread had me at -10,000 usd & yes I stopped betting it's real money.

    I guess you all are missing the point. I'm not looking for amounts, although I did ask how large must his bankroll be, so I'll be more specific.

    For example, I will never bet more than 2% of bankroll on any game. I have a rather large bankroll so in dollars my plays are decent size.

    It's impossible to go broke if you bet 1% of your bankroll on every bet. Admittedly you'll eventually bet fractions of a dollar if you're a loser, but still...

    BR set at 100k ? I would say 1,000 is a decent size bet for a professional.

    Especially me I've never followed this common rule. I'm not a volume player & the BR has always been limited for me to bet the 1-2% amounts that doesn't appeal to me.

    I hear ya, it's easier said than done even if you know what to do. Guys who can bet with discipline deserve a ton of respect (I'm not one of those).

    It is so hard to get back that 100 units too

    That is the issue none of us address when we lose

    I have directly multiple times. He will not reply to my specific questions, which is fine. I respect his privacy concerns for this matter.
