    This is a good question.

    Fishhead would be prime to answer this...

          The ability to find +EV wagers, proper money management, getting the best number possible, and the ability to keep your emotions out of it.

              Pat, how the fukk you been man? My answer is simple - if you are winning more than you are losing without sacrificing relationships or anything important in life, that makes a man a winning gambler.

                          I am a proven winner at gambling because:
                          I have been through it all and did learned from mistakes. I did quit gambling 1986-2004.
                          I have the hours needed to be successful. 7am to 11 pm is not unusual
                          I have the desire.
                          I have been extremely patient.
                          I work very hard and keep lots of notes.
                          I have the experience.
                          I have major self control and money management.
                          I NEVER DEPOSIT!
                          I do not bet sports finding them impossible.

                            Hitting over 52.38% at most books will make you a winner.

                                          Hitting 50.5% can win if you shop well.
