On average is $50 a day profit for a Rec Gambler an attainable Goal

[Sam Odom]

On average is $50 a day profit for a Rec Gambler an attainable Goal = $18,000.00 +/- per year

I hear that # thrown around...

It seems small but in reality it isnt or is it ?

I bet a very small percentile on SBR achieve or better that amount

[t-wizzle]

Nobody is that steady that they'd win 50 bucks a day. If you could do it, you'd obviously take it.

[Sam Odom]

"On average"

[Booya711]

Seems easy but much harder than one would expect

[Snowball]

it is certainly attainable to earn 50 or 100 per day
but you have to open up your plate to include
a lot of foreign sports and live wagering

[Sam Odom]

Snowy been a good solid Poster for SBR

[Big Bear]

How many of you pay rent with your gambling winnings?

[texhooper]

that's almost 20 grand extra a year, i think most on this board would take that.

[t-wizzle]

"On average"

I'm aware. So you're honestly asking if we wouldn't take 18 grand a year?

[jjgold]

Sammy 90% cannot win $50 a week

Better: Is 50 per day DOABLE in reality

[Sam Odom]

jj , you are one of those saying 'trying to win 50 dollars a day'

[jjgold]

Sammy there is no way to win I'm trying so many different methods

Not saying I will not find one within a year

You can win a $50 a day only playing martingale casino games with unlimited bankroll and unlimited casino limits

[Sam Odom]

Coach , 2015 may be BIG for us

[No coincidences]

What kind of bankroll/per unit size are we talking here?

For the run of the mill, $100 per unit gambler, no, absolutely not.

[dlunc3]

I would quit if I only averaged $50 per day. Not even close to being worth the time.

Lol $50/day for doing nothing but throwing darts at games id take it. I garauntee you're not making 18k profit every year off this .

[Dr.Gonzo]

If it's such a no brainer that you'd take the 18k even after all the time you spend it's probably best if you stop giving your opinion on every game given you're basically admitting to being a huge scrub.

I bet on average $500-$3000 a game.

Good luck making $50 a day avg $18k a year without a bankroll.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

$50 a day is very reasonable but it's not easy. For a rec gambler it's impossible; there's a reason why they're called rec gamblers.

I'm not in this for anything other than recreational purposes; i.e., I do it more because I enjoy it and less because I'm worried about a ROI (betting with disposable income at a small per unit cost).

Most recreational gamblers (i.e., $100 per unit) should consider it a "no brainer" if they were offered $18,000 per year vs. going through the process of capping games and trying to grind out a profit. I'd be willing to bet that approximately 95-99% of recreational gamblers couldn't net $18,000 a year on average. That's not nearly as easy as it's being made out to be without a much bigger bankroll/risk factor.

[lakerboy]

or you could just bet 18k on one game - hit it and call it a day

[t-wizzle]

More hateful posts. A profit of $18k is idiotic to pass up.

I'm glad you think you have me on the chock though. I spend maybe 20 mins a day actually considering my plays. Post count at sbr does not correlate to time spent capping since I'm sure that's where you're going with this.

i would not take a 18k check right now if you told me i didnt have to bet all year.. no chance in hell

This brings up the problem of how does one define a recreational gambler, I was responding to twizzler and he said "we" so he was obviously including himself. One could define a recreational gambler as simply a loser, so 100% of them will lose, thus the 18k is a given. But I was sniping twizzler and when he said "we" I felt it was an open invitation to give my take regardless of whether I consider myself recreational or not.

[edawg]

Have to wager around 2500 hundred daily I think this would take you out of rec gambler range. So no more like 5 to 10 bucks.

That's obvious from the results, you might want to include that disclaimer with every pick you release in the future though, given you just admitted that your opinion is worthless.

Odom posed a question to the forum. "We" refers to the forum. Just another guy who is intent on trolling. Good job.

You mean because you'd miss gambling or because you'd make more?

[Sam Odom]

I would take the $18,000 now , cash up front , then use a runner

[dlunc3]

I would gladly give up the work that is required. And the rush was gone a long time ago, so would also gladly give up having to worry about the games every night.

But 18k over the course of the year is not nearly enough imo. Similar to what Biggie said, average wager is $300-$500. $50 per day, which is less then 20% of a unit, is not worth the work and time that goes into it.

Would love to not have to worry about putting bets in every day though. Pain in the asss

[Ratpack]

its possible but we are all degenearates so if we won our 1st game we arent gonna stop because we are playing on "profit" so we will bet the next game. You have to be very "strong willed" to do this.

Prime example if you win 50 dollars in your 1st hand in poker would you quit and say i made my limit for the day" No you would keep going and try to win a grand because its the sickness we all have.

[ToyotaLC]

I'm finding it hard to maintain breaking even. I bet 10 bucks a game (mostly NHL and some hoops) which is small change for most guys here (I consider it low end rec/fun). I bankrolled 120 bucks about 3 months ago and as of last night had 122. Again, small potatoes for the big hitters here, but I agree with most that is would be hard to average 50 a day profit.

[texhooper]

someone else would have to plug the bets in for 95% of people. otherwise chasing eventually ensues. and then you ain't making shit

Chasing will never end well… Just like online blackjack…You might win for a while but it will eventually clean you out
