For example, a couple months ago I made a killing betting UFC, but did so poorly betting MLB, Pro Soccer, and tennis that when Tuesday came (account reset day), I was deeply in the negative. I only have track of the last few UFC cards, 'cos I posted them here. With NFL alone, I've made easily over 10k so far this season. I've hit so many parlays, it's crazy... But to correct you, no, I did not expect to be 91-21. By the time I reached 91 wins, I woulda predicted 40-55 losses. I've had only one really bad week, a couple average ones, and the rest great. A long time ago, I planned to use a blog to keep track of all my shit, but I've just been too lazy to commit.
I'm not trying to impress you, man. I'm not an NFL genius. I've only been following the sport like a huge fan the past few years. Before that, I would only watch the Superbowl. I am just really good at picking. Studying games and teams (and fighters) and figuring out who will win is something I feel I'm talented at. I finished the MLB season with 279-105.
I don't know how you would take $100 to $100,000 by going 91-21, much less billions. I started betting Week 1 with much more than $100 and I haven't made more than 20k.
PS- I woulda made about twice as much with NFL as I have now had certain teams not ruined HUGE parlays for me. Steelers losing to the Ravens week 1, Patriots losing to the Bills, and a couple more that cost me parlays worth 1k-3k each. I've done REALLY well, but I've come THIS CLOSE to doing EXTREMELY well.
