    How to get rich (fast) off sports betting
    I want to get rich, and rich fast off sports betting. By fast, I mean a million in 1-2 years.


    Now I know many of you are rolling your eyes, or laughing, but this is serious.



    How would one do it? I have bet a little bit over the last couple of years. I hit 70% overall. So please assume that we have a 70% hit rate. Hopefully this will be the 1st and toughest obstacle to cover to get rich fast off sports betting.

    And just to note, I hit about 90% on my "LOCK" picks, and about 60% otherwise on the rest, but I bet more on my lock picks. Last year in NFL I went 13-1 in Lock picks. With these 2 things combined, I hit about 70% overall.


    And no I'm no die-hard sports better. I'm a Sports fan 1st. And with my great knowledge in sports, I am able to make good predictions, and make money off sports betting. What I'm basically saying is I spend about 15min/day max on sports betting.

    Other facts, I'm pretty good at math and naturally intelligence on topics off sports as well.



    So assuming I keep up my 70% hit rate, is there a way I can make million(s) in 1-2 years? If so, how? Online sportbooks? I heard they start limiting your action if you are a consistent winner. Anyway to get around that?

    Basically, with a 70% hit rate, how far can you get?

        Well I have been for the past 3 years (NFL/NBA).

        I know I can continue that as well. My lock picks hit 90% of the time. Sometimes I just think I should just do those.

        But anyways, assume we have a 70% hit rate, then is it easy/hard to make a million in sports betting in 1-2 years? And how can it be done?

          But I'm wondering, how can being good with math help you in sports betting? Like what aspects of math are used in what aspects of sports betting? Basically, how is math used in sports betting?

          And you could talk any level of math you want. I just want to see where it might be useful in sports betting.

              All I can say is best of luck, you're going to need it! There's alot of guys who start off like you and end up taking out loans to pay the books. Hopefully you won't end up on that road...

                  Find someone to back your lock picks 10 times and tell him you will win 7 of them.

                  Get him to back you to win $1 million each time and you take 10%

                  If he makes $1 million each bet im sure he will love you forever, the 7 winners will garner you 700,000, if you win 90% of the time you will garner 900,000

                  Now you just gotta find some who will back you... might need to put up a kidney as insurance.

                      70% is and forever will be non-sustainable.

                      But assuming so.

                      Hitting 7 out of 10 $100 bets where you lay $105.

                      You net $380 profit for a 10 game set.

                      $38/avg profit a game if you play 10 games a week x 104 weeks = ~$38.5k

                      So.....essentially you would have to some how avoid deviating far from your hit rate. Raise your unit size significantly in proportion to your roll and still may come up short.

                      Good luck. Honestly without being an asshole your dream is really not feasible without a large bankroll to begin with and a much larger sample size of your success.

                        wont happen. you will not hit 70% . to make money capping you need to hit 52-53% of yur plays. that is reasonable. there is no quick money even in gambling.

                        i had that dream also

                            Um, guys, I'm not asking how hard it is to hit 70%. For me that is a given. My "off" week stretches I go 60%. Normally I hit around 75%. It evens out to be 70%.


                            But the real issue is, ASSUMING you can hit 70%....then what? That is what I was asking. If you can hit 70% you can make millinos in a couple of years? I heard there are other obstacles. For consistent winners like me. I heard online sportbooks are a good way to do sports betting. Will they allow me to take millions? If not, what can I do?

                            Bottom-line...Assuming I can win 70%....then how do I make the most out of this?

                              If this guy were a total noob he'd be claiming he has a 90% consistent win rate. That he picked 70 shows that he's trolling. Prolly JJGold.

                                  Well, I said I would only spend 15min/day on sports betting. Like I said, I'm a sports fan 1st. So I use my sports knowledge to make the right predictions. And I do quite a good job at "predicting outcomes" in sports games.

                                  So if I'm spending 15min/day, I obviously do other things the rest of the time. Aka, another job.


                                  So that other job can supply the larger bankroll. Thousands.



                                  So now assuming I have a large bankroll (5-20k good enough?), and I hit 70%......what will stop me from making millions, and what should I do to make the most out of my 70% rate with high bankroll?

                                    I want to write this off as a troll but I am not sure.

                                    But OP back to your question about worrying about being cut off.

                                    If you want to really move forward with this endeavor to becoming a millionaire you need to be able to fund multiple,MULTIPLE sportsbooks. After your first 50-100k you must consider relocating to somewhere that you can legally bet high limits and have options as to not get cut off.

                                      lol? So since I'm honest I'm a alt?

                                      90% is how I do on my locks. Otherwise, I'm 70% overall. And I'm not a "noob". I have been betting for 3 years (not very much, since 2 of those years I was underage), so I know some things about sports betting already.

                                              Sports betting is something I don't want to make my "career". In other words, I don't want to take much time out of my life to do this stuff. Taking 15 minutes to pick the games and watching some of them is enough time on it. I don't want to be consumed with only sports betting.

                                                Bookmaker.com?

                                                So once I cross around the 100k limit, take my money off other sportsbooks, and put it on bookmaker.com? And I should be off to a million in a year if I keep up my 70% hit rate? They will actually let me bet and pay me that much?

                                                  Yes...tell the you hit 70 to 90 percent when you sign up...they'll probably double your bonus as well as your limits. Best of Luck

                                                      Okay now I know you are kidding...

                                                      Come on, seriously. What do I do? Assume I can hit 70%, how can I make the most possible with a hit rate like that? Is it possible to make millions in a couple of years (assuming I hit 70%)?

                                                        What kind of bets are you making to achieve that hit rate? ATS or SU?

                                                          Against the spread. Though I also do money lines, but I'm not counting that in the 70%.

                                                              Sure I have the picking games and getting them right figured out. I'm not asking about that.


                                                              I'm asking how to actually maximize my profits and receive big amounts of money after I get my games right. In other words, what sportbooks will actually let me bet and pay me millions when I want it after winning?

                                                              How does one go about doing this? This is what I have been asking all thread, yet people are too focused on the 70%.
