    Yeah I definitely should be on this list. These days I’m a 50-100 dollar bettor. I’ve never had any HELP in this industry financially & every penny I made was from my own SMALL bankroll. To make money as a professional gambler & have to live on that money solely, with no other source of income is extremely hard. I was able to do that for 4-5 years in my 20 year career of betting, but never consistently.

    Anyone here who is betting professionally, has made money in other markets/fields or has been staked from other backers & have brought that money in this market to supplement their income. Takes money to make money & I never fuckin’ had it.

    My best year was in 2019 where I made 60k, remember I had to live off that money. From 2016-2021 I basically average around 30k betting on sports, With inflation and being a single parent living down in South Florida were it’s pretty expensive. I cannot live on these amounts only anymore.

            Thanks buddy, hope to get back there some day. If I can make 50k a year betting on sports. I can live a modest simple life, & be completely happy. I can stretch my dollar like no one else.

                    Well, you certainly do not have anything to feel bad about. I have gone down the same road.

                    You must have made close to a million in 20 years? That is pretty darn good!

                    Playing professionally is way different than playing for entertainment. The pro is living on the edge and can only play as long as he is winning.

                    If sports is not there then it is not there. Do not waste your time on a dead horse and find something else that fits your talent.

                      Although I have the sportsbooks money, I am not nearly up $1 million over 20 years. I’ve been only able to live off Sportsbetting for five years in two decades of time. I’ve had some losing years of course. This year I’m down about -1.5k in-fact.

                              NMF to do it for a living even in Vegas they limit the sharps and wise guys they know thier runners or beards

                              i knew one guy named Jeff way back in 90's he had different way to not get his runners noticed they paid regular people $50 to place bets or gave them a $50 food voucher so when he wanted to get down on one game for $20 K he got them to do it in 10 different casino $2000 each which is not really raising eyebrows in casinos yes people had to show id's because they were not known but quickly cleared to place the bet

                              HIS runners where warned NO BETTING ON MY Games if caught your off team ....... i mean wtf they got paid like $75,000 a year from him plus 3% when he won

                              hey $50 free for me going in with only $200 i'd run so fast and get that bet down

                                  Oldbill that would be awesome. Not from a financial standpoint but just to be apart of. Low profile would be hard to maintain though, I'd imagine you would have to change runners frequently. Finding non impulsive people would be a nightmare

                                                    I've never considered myself a pro. Books think otherwise. Crypto really hitting the roll hard these past few weeks. It's a great time to buy more. !

I’ve been only able to live off Sportsbetting for five years in two decades of time. I’ve had some losing years of course. This year I’m down about -1.5k in-fact.
                                                        The thing is that to be good a massive amount of time has to be spent to get an edge. A lot of things that used to work do not work anymore. Candy stores are gone. Anything that works does not seem to last very long.
