#83up and have big plans, bet horses 1969-1986 and just return to them but with simple system not handicapping
poker has been very good to me and never need to deposit with unlimited withdrawals seekable
Sport betting is a no-no for me as guarantee failure.Comment -

#84Easily down mid 5 figures lifetime. That's spread out over 20 years of gambling. Wonder how much people with other hobbies have spent over a 20 year period. 3000 a year seems easy to blow.Comment -

#95Cashed out around 15k lifetime (all fairly recently, been gambling for 6 years, 2-3 years seriously), currently have about 25k more scattered over various books online. And I have deposited a grand total of $50 into books over the last 4 years combined, for BTP last year, that is it. Deposited maybe $200 or so total into books in my lifetime.Comment -

#97Here is the deal guys. If you are just a gambler meaning making the bets and not taking them you will be down eventually. Nobody, or almost nobody wins in the long run. I hate to call people liars but I know for a fact that nobody wins. Saying that -- maybe 1 out of 100 and I think that number is very liberal, it might be more like 1 in 1000 in the long run is a winner.
The person that said horse players might be up, well those guys have an even worst ratio of win to loss. I doubt if 1 in 10,000 win in that sport, in the long run. I have been around gamblers longer than most of you are alive and I know not one horse player that is up.
Only one way to win when you are betting sports, just one way, the only way.Comment -

#105I'm thankful to be up by a comfortable amount lifetime. Not anywhere near six figures. Early money management hiccups are to blame. It took me 7 yrs to get that down.
My best 'guess', 40 to 50K
Been doing this since I was 10. Used to book in HS. Not an impressive amount at allComment
