    what is the average percentage on a gambler
    i know you have to beat 52.5 percent to break even on a -110 line but what does the average person do.


    i know people get on streaks for 5-20 games but what happens after 1,000 games what is the percentage of some one being ahead after 1,000 games

    If you can hit at 58% long term you can be a pro at sports gambling. Even less.

          like for instance -120 and you bet 300 thats 360 to win 300 for every time that losses your down 60 additional dollars the chalk adds up in the long run

            If you could hit 58% long-term you would own a sportsbook or two.

              For -110 straight bets all bettors combined it's roughly 49.84%.
