    And how would the guy who wrote that article know this?

    Does he personally know everyone who resides in the USA?

      IS there really a gambler in this forum makes 50k or above. I would like to tail him and learn from him. And it has to be formally tracked and recorded.

      I don't think there is.

        I'm going to let you know there are plenty of people that make 50K plus. There are no guys who are in the predicting game that make that type of money in the long run....year after year. But plenty of guys here know how to make 50k. meaning they make money when events take place not by predicting who will cover or win a game. Nobody can make money doing that regardless of what is being written.

                      I personally now more then 50. Most pay their taxes as well .This "article"is the dumbest thing I ever heard .Between poker and sportsbetting in the United States alone there must be over twenty thousand people making over 200k a year . I guarantee there over 1000 people in the U.S. beating table games for over 100k a year.This article must have been disinformation or something.

                        There is no one that makes fifty thousand a year orginating.That was the first time I have ever used a smiley figure in one of my posts but your coment earned one.You need to get out of the house more.In your opinion there is no one on earth that can pick up 100 units a year,every year? A game with a point spread is basically a coin flip.You are saying an intelligent human being that does nothing but study and watch sports, can't beat 52%?Are you saying there is no one on this planet that gets down more then 100k a 'GAME' and wins year in and year out? Keep your shortsightedness to your self, and stay in your basement.

                                  There is no way to make a little extra cash betting sports or racing.

                                  If you win, they jump you in the parking lot.

                                  No, but Dumb Question...

                                  Why are some of the online books up top Blue and some are kind of Grey.


                                  What does mean??? The blue ones are better now or what?

                                    Esco thinks he's actually gonna get paid

                                      Most wanted list

                                      In this business about 97% are losers in a long term. Rest 3% are the smart players with high discipline and ability to make right choices. For them dilemma is not how to beat bookie but how to be allowed to play. Books don't like winners and those guys among 3% are on books MOST WANTED list. Would be fair if books would make their money on 97% and let rest of 3% of guys roll but that ain't a case. They want to make money on EVERYBODY! Therefore I think to be a successful pro sports investor you have to create leverage , play in many places ( that means you better move to Vegas or South CA) and keep their bets as low as possible.

                                          Smurf... Whats up Man!!! SOMEBODY here speaks MY language.

                                          Seriously Man. People clown if you make low bets. But really can't win that much!!! They can't just be happy milking the 97%!!! It's like go back to horses or something??

                                          Is Vegas bad too, with any back alley raw deal stuff going on?

                                          Last time I was in Vegas, at night, parts looked pretty raw, but it seems like you can still get away with the money.

                                            Even 'professionals' have bad days though. Someone I know actually went like 6-10 on his picks last session. Lost $200.

                                            I'd say its like slangin' weed. If you're mellow and you are good at it. You can make and float a lot of cash to mooch off of, for a long time.

                                                I'd say its like slangin' weed. If you're mellow and you are good at it. You can make and float a lot of cash to mooch off of, for a long time.
                                                6-10, the horror, lol.

                                                Pros go on FAR worse runs than that.

                                                    Wow $10 bets Esco. Wait till you try to bet bigger. Well, you're percentage isn't that good so they haven't noticed you yet.

                                                    I was saying I used to win over half of my $10 bets, and I thought, oh wow I can rich doing this!

                                                      If you include poker players, that's waaaaaaaaaaaaay too low.
                                                      Reminds me of this video of "high stakes living" of kelly kim. Don't think they afford that house without his main event score but he did say one of the guys living in the house is sharp.

                                                        They rent those houses for the TV shows. Its like cribs on MTV, everything is just rented for the shoot.

I should always read things carefully. You should always read things carefully. Read everything very carefully. Word by work. Do not forget to see any word or phrase in the fine print that is there or isn't there. Especially the word get. If you read something and it says you will paid. That is bad. The sentence should be you will get paid. You see west side esco, i am just testing to see if you have what it takes to make it on professional gambler planet. You will get paid, is good. You will paid, is bad. You have passed the first test. Congratulations.
