    Interest never sleeps nor sickens nor dies; it never goes to the hospital; it works on Sundays and holidays; it never takes a vacation; it never visits nor travels . . . it has no love, no sympathy; it is as hard and soulless as a granite cliff.


    Once master this, you’ll always be on the receiving end.

    We are using the phrase too loosely now

    1% is a high number of pro gamblers USA

    It’s simple.

    How do you file your taxes?

    Nothing more, nothing less.

    I recommend doing it part time, if you’re a profitable gambler. One risk, you never know when your outs might get turned off.

    Being able to get down in Vegas also helps.

    My point is you will worry far less about getting limited or cut in Vegas.

    And it’s certainly not irrelevant.

    No, it's not.

    People only think it is.

    Players are getting limitied everywhere, it's like bush league offshore all over again.

    With the exception of the Vegas houses in NJ, of course.

    Millions can be moved in and out of those houses, by wire, the same can't be said for DK, Barstool, Fanduel, etc.

    Those in the business know, because they do it.

    What's up with this fascination with being a "pro gambler"? I know a lot of pro poker players and they're wickedly stressed out all the time, they owe hundreds of thousands of dollars, they medicate to counter the falls and stress. I'm good. I rather just playing around with some disposable income and have fun watching sports.

    It's a gambling board, not everyone has a lot of sense.

    Like I said, I recommend doing it part time, especially at first, at the very least it will save stress.

    Many of those doing it seriously aren't really trying to have fun watching sports.

    Because it's not fun anymore, lol.

    Yea guys here are always saying they don't watch the games, they just play the numbers. I get it. Shit, if you have an edge and think you can beat the books, great ... Make it your primary income.

    I personally have lost a ton of money due to gambling. It sucks but I chose to bet so i have to live with it. Winning a bunch of bets and cashing out to buy my family some stuff or a nice dinner out is an amazing feeling. It's why I keep coming back.

    It’s never been more important to be able to get down in Vegas (and NJ a close 2nd).

    Pro level cringe meter for sure.
    You're a "pro gambler" so you have a bank roll. You should also have other money from all your winnings.
    Gold hides it under the bed to keep his "pro status". The rest with IQ's over 10 invest it in stocks, bonds, real estate etc.. This creates income from other sources and according to JJ they are no longer pro gamblers. They still gamble and make lots of money from it though.
    Very, very silly post.

    JJ where do you come up with this shiit? Seriously?

    Let's just say you are a PRO GAMBLER and made a ton of money, don't you think you would invest some of it to gather another additional income in time?
