Default When can I consider myself a SHARP?

The term "Sharp" is thrown a ton around here on this board but I am wondering what exactly must I do to consider myself to this higher standard...Must I pick a certain percentage over the course of a year? Do I need to profit XXX amount of money in a year? Do I need to take the Alt line of Saints -7.5 for + 450? Do I need to eat Dominos laced SBR point pizzas for breakfast, lunch, and dinner??? Enlighten me...

When you dominate Beat the Prick..
Tell everyone to take Saints ML when every fukk in town is laying -5 on the colts..
When you have thousands waiting to read your daily Baseball Blog "Kings Corner"..

When every forum wants to hire you but secretly fear the backlash from jealous posters..

These are a few..

If you can pay me 200 points then everyone will know that you are officially sharp because it will be obvious that you are winning a lot of points.

LOOK YOUR A SHARP WHEN YOU PROVE ON PAPER YOU CAN MOVE FROM BEING 14000 DOWN RECOVERING AND DECIDING TO TAKE YOUR WIFE TO PARIS LIKE i did last month, when you write in caps and no one gives a shit as long as you win, when you post for two weeks that you got the SAINTS AND OVER THEN 3 DAYS LATER YOU GO AND TALK with big daddy and zbois and a little of pauly some of jj gold and you cook it up and you end up winnig 7000 dollars because you have what it takes ,[this is very important,] and the ability to see that you are doing is wrong there is no way this game can go over so you decide to reverse your bet go with the udner for 3600 hundred and at the same time you put about six or seven groupies that are busting your balls because finally fiqure out you are the man, and with all that you still win 7 large I HAD NO SLEEP FOR THE LAST THREE DAYS WORKED LIKE A DOG FLIPPED TWICE AND ENDED UP ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF TOWN, THATS WHEN your are sharp, also meeting a guy that goes by mike, you jerk his chain he puts his thumb on you and you have the class to give him and the guy with him the last 50 coins you had because you know when you meet another sharp you tip your hat to him out of respect and you learn a lesson from it, what was the lesson thats for me to know and for you to learn lol. I GOULD BE LIKE OTHER POSTERS PUT A SYMBOL HERE ANOTHER SYMBOL THERE get my points for the night and nobody learns from exchanging lifes bruises and bangs is the formula to make a sharp. when after you finish with your post you glance over the other posts and you say I UNDERSTAND THIS I have been there you right a note to whomever, like the other day and your reading from a post from another poster you remember this guy was trying to make a mark out of you just a few days ago you don,t decide to get the salt and finish him, you turn around you see this kid is in a bad really bad spot, you tell him to p.m. you before you know it your sharing 60years of experience 40 years of having a son you do all it takes to help this kid , once hes o.k. you let him no sincerly he can come to you 24 -7 , and lets talk assure him you 'll take the place of his dad because of the sensitivity involved. Thats when you know you have what it takes. g.l.

you are sharp when you can put doubt in a good bettors mind. When your release makes alot of peoples blood pressure go up 2 points and lines go down 1.5! That's when you're sharp

If you have a big bankroll and if you're making profit on the long run, then you can consider yourself as a Sharp.

Even with a %55 winning percentage, a person may consider himself as "Sharp". You can make tons of money if you got a good bankroll, money management skills and a good plan.

I think I'd never consider myself sharp even if I was making money consistently. For me, the big challenge isn't handicapping but owncapping.

IMO,

That would be when you consistently bet at the best number and are a high percentage bettor.
