    Default NOT GLAMOURUS making 50k yearly sports investing

    ok so what does it really take im going to try and make it short and sweet.
    i place 2700 bets a year easy
    im guessing the normal whatever that means is around 1500 bets
    meadian # for the 2 is 2100 so thats what we will base it off of
    2100 bpy
    do not expect more than a 55% win rate or
    1155/2100 won bet payouts assuming all @ -110[0.91%]
    income expectant $50,000=5% of bankroll
    5% of bankroll/income x20 =$1,000,000[100%]
    so you dont have a million then your gonna need atleast 3months to test the waters make sure your BILLS are paid
    2100 [dvd] by 12 =175 bpm
    175bpm x 3months[testing waters]=525 bets and thats a $250,000 starting bankroll or around $500 per bet better
    hunny its time to get that equity loan



    i have become insane through long periods of sanity

    My first suggestion? Join the year 2007. Anyone paying close to -110 these days is throwing money out the window.

    You don't actually need a $250,000 start-up bankroll. You are allowing for losing every single one of those 525 bets for the first three months. That is not just unrealistic, it's almost impossible. If, as you say, you are planning on $500 per bet, a $25,000 bankroll should be sufficient. You could probably go lower but that allows for unit bets of 2% which is a fairly standard number.

    If you start with $25,000, make 2100 bets of $500 with your stated winning expectation of 55% @-104 (ya gotta have Matchbook):

    you've made about $86K in a year. (You said you actually place 2700 bets a year. That brings you more into the $111K range.)

    Mind you, if you are finding your betting angles on props and/or more obscure events then maybe you really do have to pay -110 and your original figures are more realistic.



    Glamorous is in the eye of the beholder. When I used to make 28K unloading shipping containers one box at a time day after day, that would sure have looked glamorous to me.


    However finding 2100 bets a year in the 55% winning expectation range is much easier said than done.

    Accu through these non-sensical rants it sounds like you've completely lost your mind (hell, you admit it yourself). I don't know what kind of help you're hoping to get on here, but I hope you find whatever you're looking for. Step off the ledge, and let's talk about it further...

    beleive me you aint gonna make shit unless you are placing every situation possible everyday that has a 55% chance or over.
    today their is approx 10situations. that 1000 bets a year crap does not work jj


    i used the -110 as an example i get -110s for -102,but other bets are involved also so -110 is just a median

    I must point out that statistically speaking hitting 55% over 2100 plays is an equivalent of being among 5000 people with highest incomes in the US. Do not sell yourself short.

    50k is an easy target, even if you don't live in Vegas. Pick of props, teasers and bad numbers. You can do that in 20 hours a week.

    No JJ is right, winning throug 1-sided bets is hard.
    The only way to make money on a regular basis is to go for bonuses/scalping.

    Donīt be fooled, capping is hard. There are so many factors that can make good bets loosers.

    If you're scalping, you don't need to cap to find the good "1-sided" bets

    You don't need to cap anything to beat a pro. Or a huge winner or whatever you wanna call it.

    You can find very solid +EV wagers 365 days a year.

    Its almost as if his goal is to make videos and then spread incorrect statements all over the interwebs.

    Serious business.
