Percentage of bettors that win.

[brendanb438]

Huh? Other than those Wong Teasers which last year hit at an amazing rate I am not into parlays of any sort.

Also I clearly said I am NOT TALKING ABOUT RECREATIONAL GAMBLERS like yourself who bet $10 on their home team.

Anyway I don't know what is up your ass but it really sounds like you come from a family of degenerate gamblers who have lost it all year in and year out. Sorry if I hit ya close to home, I didn't mean to.

Again we are talking about the 10 year mark. There will always be degenerate gamblers who will lose their paychecks every week of their lives, possibly you or a loved one, but that isn't 95% + of those people who actively bet sports every day for 10+ years.

I am trolling? You have posted like 4 or 5 times in this forum 1 or 2 lines of zero discussion. Get the [censored] out of here you are the POS troll. A couple weeks ago you couldn't even figure out how to get money into an online sportsbook. Actually I guess you did host a nice Q&A with someone who sounded like they were trying to scam us with an unknown Online Payment Processor. OmegaMike where are you? Come and help Mindstatez deposit his $50.

Like Whipsaw said people doing this for 10 or more years I would guess more than 50% of them are successful assuming they have proper bankroll management skills.

Whoa, I missed this post. If you honestly believe that more than 50% of sports bettors, or even a number <u>remotely</u> close to that, who have bankroll management are successful if they've been playing for "10+ seasons", then I now realize I wasted a bunch of time trying to use logic with you. Can't believe no one else noticed your outrageous claim, wow...

mindstatez I give up on you. You must be retarded. I am not saying of all sports bettors. Get that through your thick skull. DEE DEE DEE. I guess though someone who is so above us and has to have a username that ends in a z is too coolz and smartz for us herez at 2+2z.

You and your recreational gambler buddies should go over to the RX and post. Enjoy it over there.

I know you aren't saying all bettors win, but you said over 50% of them win if they've played 10 years? I get the feeling you now realize this is wrong, it's cool I don't want to fight over this with you, lets just drop it.

[MyTurn2Raise]

woohoo...within a few weeks, I'll have passed the 10-yr mark from my first online deposit and I'll be in the black

woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brendanb438]

Congrats. I am at 8.5 Years. I hope I don't tilt away 6 figures within the next year and a half.

mindstatez I will drop it, but I was again referring to bettors who I guess you would tag as sharp bettors because of the time and effort they put into it daily. A recreational bettor might spend a few minutes placing bets on "bar stool picks" but these aren't who I ment or who whipsaw ment by saying actively betting.

5% sounds about right in terms of people...obviously gonna be weighted since the sharps bet more. In terms of money, maybe 20% of wagers coming in are "good bets".

I have to agree with brendan. If someone makes it 10 years (not 10 seasons) without already quitting or going broke then I think that a large percentage of them are winners. 99% of the square money comes from new bettors or degenerates who will not make it to the 10 year mark.
