    Sports betting can’t be that hard despite what they say...
    I mean, this is my first season betting on sports and I’m 5-1. I’ve posted them here as proof, so it can’t be that hard right? “Best in world” lucky to hit 55%? That’s a bit hard to believe. Beginners luck? Maybe...But I think if you stay disciplined and don’t “chase”, then winning at sports long term should be easy to someone who knows sports well

    Tough game Neo. That's how you get trapped. thinking this gambling game is easy. Play for entertainment purposes only. Play light. Would recommend you GO PRO here and wager points. If you do you will be better off long term. Good luck.

      Five and one'r here... Stop the presses, we got a five and one'r.

      The books should just close up shop right now before this five and one'r wreaks havoc on the entire industry.

      Las Vegas already has him on their watch list. Panic in Sin City!

          Also win percentage is useless without the odds the bets were made at.

            C’mon guys I’m not getting cocky or tryin to be. All I’m saying is I know sports very well but was always weary of betting because all you ever hear is how impossible it is to win but I don’t think I agree with that theory IF one stays disciplined. But only time will tell. Also what is the pro program here, what do I get and have to do?

                I’m sure the original post is not true because no one is out on message boards posting their first 6 plays, but let’s say it is true…follow this advice from easy rider kid. When I first started I was making $10 and $20 deposits trying to run them up. One night really really early on maybe like a day or two after I got my first offshore account, I lost $80 trying to win blackjack after I lost a Monday Night game and I about cried. But I constantly think back to those days when I had so much fun and it still meant a lot but I was gambling with such small amounts of money, building them up sometimes and feeling like a giant. But those days are long gone, I can barely even make a single bet for $80 and feel like it matters. Point is like easy said start with low stakes and keep them there. Unless you’re a statistics professor in which case fine, do whatever you want smarty pants

                    again NEO understand this. Bookies are not in business because on the regular players win. It a tough fukin game believe me when I say this. Been in the game 25+ years. I know from losing experience. as for the PRO Program you get 12 points a day rather than 6. you get trivia to try and win Free plays twice a week. If you are located in the USA you can redeem your points for Bitcoin/gift cards. the points you get as a non pro are useless unless you go PRO. You donate $100 to an SBR Charity and then you are a PRO. IN the future you can then go PRO by using 3K in points. PRO is a great way to play without losing real coins. trust me you save money most likely one day if you wager mostly points or very light with real $$$.

                        Does SBR still have those shitty 44% winning touts? Remember, those trash guys that couldn’t cap a fitted hat that you employed? Are they still around?

                          Not trying to be a big shot I think the tone of my post is being misunderstood and that is my mistake. You can check my posts if you don’t believe me if you really care to. I’m 5-1 and have won probably close to $1,000

                          we will see over time how it goes I’m. Notbetting serious money it’s all for fun and entertainment. Don’t think it will be THAT difficult. Brains+Sports knowledge+discipline = profits

                                Live betting has made it extremely easy to become profitable if you know what you're doing.

                                        I don't think that at 5'1" you are tall enough to be a successful sports gambler.

                                              OMG, you are so fvcked for life. You have no idea. Retire from gambling now and go out a winner and actually have a life instead of wasting countless hours on this bullshit is the best advice any of us here can give you. Winning from the start is actually the worst thing to happen to you in your life and happened to 99.9% of us here. Welcome to the degenerate Club.

                                                No point of just talking to convince people, start tracking your bets starting tonight just like you did above by posting the bet with the odds - and never edit your posts.

                                                After each game you should post your updated record, and since you did not specify how much you bet, might as well assume it's one unit per bet for accounting purposes.

                                                After a month or so of posting your records, people will believe you if you say it's easy or not easy.

                                                      C'mon guys give him a chance. After all, if Morono can end every year in the black why can't the op? Right?
