    "The Industry" for big gamblers

    I could be wrong. This website exists for the small to medium to "slightly" large players... That's my strong guess.

    The BIG bettors not only do not bother to post on such websites, they have some type of agent or whatever today's word may be for playing bets .. I don't know or care if offshore or not. Big Money gamblers find "outs", kinda like booze before it was legal.

    Hard/impossible to even get down 10k in a lot of situations. And big should also be judged by total volume and not just per wager.
    Is it bigger to make one 10k wager per day or make twenty 2k wagers per day?

    10k per week is very low. The true pros bet a lot of VOLUME. Some people think pros discern from the gods one game per day/week and win it. Nah. They constantly find little edges and hammer in bets. Win 54-55% or the equivalent and get that volume in. It's not about amount per play, it's about betting edges and getting volume. Rather have 10 wagers at 2k than 2 wagers at 10k. Let's the edge play itself out better.

    Nice. What're you on? Cal +14.5?

    I can have 4x that volume in a day, but rarely on one play.

    10K minimum a week is pretty low. Consider thats like 100 bets at 100 bucks. These weeks, the shift between baseball to winter sports makes it a little lower.

    Call it 13 bets or so a day:

    Baseball: 2 Sides, 2 totals, 2 first five, 10 props. Easy
    College Football : Easy to get down like 35 bets a week on that
    NFL: 2 sides, 2 totals, 10 props
    College Basketball : Easy to make 14 bets on a Thursday or Saturday
    NBA, NHL, the same

    If you get into more exotic stuff:
    6 Japenese Baseball games a night
    5 KBO games a night
    Golf
    Tennis isn't even that exotic
    MMA, boxing
    All the soccer stuff

    getting 10k down a week is really easy.

    I'm very controlled on how much I bet per play (~100). But during baseball season, I was easily getting down 4,000 a day or so. I don't consider myself big time at all.
