Why does everyone keep quitting?

Of coarse it's beatable, there are many people that make their living sports betting. Most people that gamble lose because they aren't smart gamblers (even though they may know a lot about sports) and because of the juice. Money management is also huge. A lot of gamblers get down and try to chase, and doing that will just make you lose money very very quick. Chasing might work a couple times or so, but all it really takes is once for you to really go cold and your bankroll is toast if you are chasing.

Sports betting is not only beatable though, it's quite simple. Maybe not easy to make a living doing it, but very very easy to make a profit in almost every single season in every sport you cap, as long as you know what you're doing.

The only lines that Richkas and jjgold are capable of setting are clotheslines.

Guys should focus on the things that are important to them. Sometimes something has to give. They can come back if and when they are ready to re plunge their brains out with their fellow plungers.

very few people will win long term gambling bc, id say, at least 95% of people chase

Look- these lines are set by people. People like jjgold and Richkas. If jjgold and Richkas set the line, it is beatable because IRB knows more than them. Make sense?

OK well maybe the guys setting the lines are pretty smart, but they cant always be right because they are HUMAN. You understand? Every line is NOT perfect. Just make sure you bet smart and you can beat sports books.

Nicky is wrong that its not beatable. It may be hard but its not unbeatable....

first off that chick in your avatar is so fukkin hot it makes me get a boner just looking at her, does she have a name or is she just a random chick?

second, i think to be a professional at this you have to be next to your computer at all times to take advantage of the smallest line moves and the best openers that can help you, or if you just wana make decent money not a living at it then you can wait til games kick off or tip off and fade steam that you believe is wrong

third, the oddsmakers only open the lines but the real line setters are the professionals who see lines they view as mistakes and pound the lower limits for whatever they can and then you get the true opener which is devoid of the same value that the oddsmakers opener was

yes, oddsmakers make mistakes but those mistakes get sniffed out immediately by the hoards of professionals and sharps and they get whacked within mins and all you are left with is scraps

sportsbetting equals a very very very tough way to make consistent money, let alone make a living at

this is why so many are quitting, its becoz they are going broke

If you can beat sports betting, you can probably earn a lot more trading stocks or managing other business ventures.
