Are Professional Gamblers Real... Do These People Really Exist...?

[ronjon619]

I currently earn $8,320 Yearly so 64k would be enough for a 7 Year Vacation

wow, you can survive on that in Panama?

[iwant2lrn]

I want to live in Panama now. And become a pro.

Is it realistically possible to earn your entire annual income exclusively from sports betting?

I have lived exclusively off poker and sports since 1987. Middle-class Southern California beach lifestyle, although the wife works and carries her half.

You give worse advice than bigdaddyQH

If you disagree with my opinions, fine then. You can't even give advice.

[Fishhead]

if fishhead can do it, do you people really think it is that difficult?

Precisely!!!!!!

[OTL]

If you don't make at least $250k a year...is not worth gambling and youre not a pro. All here at SBR are wanna be pros...but in the end maybe just one of us will have to show something 3 or 5 years from now.

How many people with real jobs make anywhere near that amount? Maybe 3% of the population at most... Anyone who can subsist off their winnings is by definition of a pro. I played poker exclusively for a living for almost 2 years and didn't make six figures, and it was a comfortable living for me. Then again I don't have a nasty coke habit or pay child support for 30 children...

Well stated sir............

if you spend a paycheck instead of earning a paycheck from gambling, are you considered a pro?

Does your avatar really offer free entry is a better question.........by far.

yes

and free is better than cheap

[Fishhead]

yes

and free is better than cheap

There is a point to be made here.


Many here would pay $2,000 for that ass whereas a smart shopper/professional gambler will find it for $20, and in some cases, for free.

[Flying Dutchman]

I got news for you clowns...

Don't let the photos fool you...Fishy is smarter than he looks.

[Flying Dutchman]

JJ, on the other hand...

Fishhead is a true professional and one of the best Advantage Players in the industry.
The are many valuable lessons that can be learned from him, especially if you have
aspirations to make gambling a full time occupation.

[trumpdown]

Living "like a king" costs more in most 3rd world country's than in any "1st world country".

Agreed. I used the term "king" too loosely.

[brock]

There all called trout's they can't make it betting so they try to sell
there plays. When they call I just say if your plays are so good why
don't you just bet them to make money.

[durito]

Tout's are not professional gamblers. They are professional scumbags (mostly).
