In all my life, I've deposited about $1000 to sportsbooks (small timer). I've withdrawn about $10k. I've probably lost about $50k in casinos (barely ever go but had my moments). The real area where I've made money is proline. It's still profitable but not nearly like it was back in the late 90s, early 2000s. By 2010, the gig was softening up but I cleared just under $50k in a 10 year period. I only bet when I believe it's +EV.

I currently have ~$2k left over in various accounts. Basically committed to riding that money out forever. I don't like to deposit and only bet 1 or 2 percent of bankroll so takes forever to make or lose money.
