    I think that is somewhat irrelevant since I don't always bet -110 lines.

    I was 73% over the last year with Allpro\Sportsbook. I just about doubled my money until they shut me off. Right now I'm sweating the check clearing. Since switching books I've been pathetic.

    I am not your typical gambler. I don't chase action and usually limit my plays (maybe 4 bets a week or so on average). If I'm going bad I slow not speed up. I was a successful professional greyhound handicapper for 18 years and have been betting sports for 40. Ultra conservative though as I firmly believe the more action you give the more the edge comes into play.

    Hopefully I'll get straightened out soon and be able to offer something useful. Until then poison\fade.

    why dont you ask a physicist why an apple shouldnt fall upwards. your more likely to get a better answer these forums are full of posters deluded in their quest for the holy grail which is a way of winning without any hard work.

    austin 7 should point you in the right direction, once blinded by mathematical jibberish you can join in the nonsense.

    What are you looking for? someone that has done it long term etc. Are you questioning if it can be done?
    if that is what you are doing simply watch the 60 minutes interview with former computer group player Billy Walters who is worth 100s of millions from wagering on sports.

    i said earlier that i dont always play -110 lines. My point is that you can vary widely from 52% and have a very good or very bad unit count.

    I just did my september totals. For the month, I was at 48.5% but was up over 10 units. I could have a 65% winning percentage, but still only be up 10 units, depending on the average line that you bet.

    So to answer your question, no, consistant long term winners are not in abundance here.
