    Is anybody on this forum WINNING????
    I look around and I see loser after loser after loser being posted. I'm starting to think some of you guys are working for the sportsbook trying to burry the board.


    The point of this thread is not to bash the majority of posters who keep posting losing plays but to identify the posters who post winners.

    Please reply to this thread with posters names who win.

    I know Paco and Dad win most of time but everyone knows about them. Are there any others?

    Nobody wins in this industry

    Even if you make a profit, you pay with other aspects of your life.

      what do you mean by that? There has gotta be some posters on here worth tailing.

      Losing plays are being posted at an alarming rate. I know I could fade them but for some reason I cant bring my self to blindly fading, and i dont want to blindly tail either . I'm just looking for some posters who I can respect their opinions and use it for reassurance when i like the same side or to sway me against placing a certain bet.

        I think when posters make a cocky thread title like
        "easiest play of the year"
        "Going biggggggg on this"
        "How big do we go on this"
        "this play is a lock"

        etc.... it must lose at a 70% rate or higher.

            overall the book wins. only a few come out ahead. so tail those.

            to win you have to spend all your time watching and reading the games. (stats)/ pregame writeups. follow winning forum guys.

            ---------------

            i play poker and sportsbetting does not really work with that. since you have to monitor the table all the time. sports just does not work for me.

            proly one or the other. or pay a winning service.

              The operative word here is few. Out of hundreds of thousands of gamblers, there are literally a few people who are long term winners. None of them post lock threads, jinx threads, or 3 sentence analysis threads in SBR player's talk.

                    I can certainly say that whenever I post something anywhere remotely close to that I definitely am nowhere near 30%, thats ridiculous.

                    Cant speak for others

                      Exactly what Mikail just said. If I see a post like that... with a high amount of posts in it... I fade immediately... and I'm actually winning 70% of the time...

                            Why do people think 95% of people lose?

                            That doesn't make any sense. 75% may lose, but no way 95%.

                              Most gamblers are degens, sure they can all win in the short term, but the juice and bad streaks + upping their bet amounts later on means that most gamblers will lose in the long run. Its the nature of the beast.

                                Some people win their tilt bets though. I still say more people make money than people think. People make dumb assumptions. I lost a bet today so people assume I'm in the red. They have no idea and I don't have any idea about anyone else based off a few posts they put on here.

                                    How about not looking on "players talk" for winning plays. Just go to the MMA forum

                                        You may not be in the red today, but you are in the red overall just like everyone else here. That is the simple math of it. Even if you ignore statistical reality, doesn't it strike you as odd that there are almost zero reliable accounts of long term winners (unless you believe the touts! )? If people were winning, they would be shouting it from the rooftops. But here we are, 180k SBR members, and almost nothing...

                                          It a grind, as long as you hit 60 percent or more, it be profitable, I doubt anyone can hit at a steady 75 percent 80 percent lifetime.

                                                Bronxer is the only guy who wins. Every day he's 3-0 or 4-0. Except days he posts his plays before the game start

                                                              bonus whores always win in the long run. others almost always lose.

                                                              but there is this one fellow named milwaukee mike, really great guy. he started a thread about how great marquette was in 2nd halves, and wouldn't you know it they are on a 13-1 run now ats in 2nd halves.
