What Percentage Of Bettors Make Real Money (Say more than 20-30K) Every Year?

[ChalkyDog]

20-30K is real money? That's about minimum wage?

If you have this as your full time job, and are only making minimum wage... that sucks.

Most guys like action so we bet everyday and lose

If you really want to win make 20 bets tops a year and you might have a chance

[BuddyBear]

If you constantly hammer sure things like -400 MLs you will come out on top. Never bet anything that has a chance to lose, it's that simple

This does not make any sense.

[wantitall4moi]

too small to make up a percentage.

[JR007]

Well I'm talking about people who try to be serious gamblers who actually bet with like a 20-50K bankroll


Obviously there's a lot of casual people who don't even try to make real money. You can't make 30k a year when your average bet is 50 bucks

we know one thing, you are not one of the 1%, you cannot lose 30k a year(either) betting 50.00 per game

I have picked up over three grand ......since thanksgiving, why?? I stick to that unit size, and pull my money around,150.00 200.00, experience has taught me that is a lot harder to make 300.00 a week
6 winners, than picking 3 or 4 winners a week, I have a 100.00 drag with my local, so I do not see him under 100.00 either way, pay my bills with my winnings, have to be smart, with your money

if you take the time and study line history, and stay away from NFL, too small a sample size

the only time you can win. At the end of the day is a certain corporation offer you a fund to gamble and you will be given a certain time for so much return<not gurentee though> then you get certain kind of bonus. At the end of the day is like a mutual benefit another word its like a financial consultant but on professional sports. Then the percentage will be much higher. Pls comment.

Probably 5% of American online betters make any money

Between the juice, shitty sports book options. terrible deposit methods, EXTREMELY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, withdraw fees and endless amounts of other bullshit. They likelihood of turning any profit is fukd

You say that like it's easy to see when a tennis player will tank a match or when a soccer team at -600 will give up a game-tying goal in the final seconds ... Big favorites will screw you over from time to time. In fact, it happens every day.

Being selective about which heavy favorites you back is important, but even being extremely selective isn't enough to avoid a loss on a heavy favorite ... Sometimes all the stats and facts just don't translate to the game itself, and you get burned badly.

But what makes you think you are going to win the 2 games? Flawed logic. You're just as likely to lose those 2 as the other 100. You have no way of knowing your edge, therefore no way to know wgen to vary your bet size.

Most guys gonna average under a 50% win rate, statistically better off flat betting and enjoying the ride as long as possible or until they rwload, which is inevitable either way.

Most bettors avg 48-52%, they don't avg under 50% because then they can just fade themselves to make money

Huh?

Losing gamblers don't think that way. You think a losing gambler has the self-awareness to stop and think, "I should fade myself"?

They're dialed in. It's no different than a poker player going on tilt. They don't recognize the need to step back and re-evaluate.

[BettingWizard]

why do you ask this question every 6 months?

[PedroG]

85 % of bettors will tell you they win , and 95 % of them are lying ....

[Dancemanmarc2]

If and when the Rangers play the Padres....this season with Darvish.....(-400) will be an option for those who like to take it in the shorts

[acl123]

Everybody goes 50/50 in the long run.
Flat betting does not work

[HeeeHAWWWW]

I heard somewhere that 2% of gamblers are in profit over any particular year.

A large chunk of those will be having a lucky streak, or hit a big parlay.

[Roxxyfish]

Same unit size every game

If you bet different than that your just a compulsive gambler

sorry JJ you are totally wrong

and to some other guys here a bankroll from 25K,every serious sportsbettor laugh at you if you claim to be a pro bettor with a 25K roll
