Sports Betting

[Exi]

Whats your job?

At the moment I am the primary care giver to my toddler/children and household manager. or as some would call, a unemployed low testosterone, beta cuck bum, leeching off his missess.

Before that I owned a construction company for 10 years, a MMA sports equipment and apparel company with a strong E-commerce angle, as well as a fledgling software endeavor. They didn't survive the 2008/9 crash.

I still turn away a substantial amount of contracts every month while I work through legal battles.
20 months from now I will be back in business. (kids both in school, and a couple of other factors)

I most certainly do, which is why I told TS to ignore your ignorant first post. Just cause you suck doesn't mean you should assume everyone is going to suck and resort to an incredibly petty view on the matter

It was less about sucking and more about not caring. And from my first hand knowledge of working in a Casino I can tell you that the house always wins. You may be that unicorn though, good for you.

Did you miss the part where the thread title says sports betting?

But yeah, might wanna recognize just cause you sucked doesn't mean gambling 'is for peasants who don't bet on life'.

Your rustles are delicious, but you might want to pick it up a bit, as your insults and arguments are a bit weak. tbh.

How come every gambler and "sports better" I ever met says they are good at it, and make money while having a ball? Gee, I wonder.

I'm not rustled, I just think you're a moron and it shows from your first post. You have no business speaking on this matter when you were a complete failure and its clearly skewed your view.

You sound like you have allot invested in all this, and you are most definitely rustled, as you cannot form a single sentence without an unfounded ad hom attack. Just drop it and try to have a civil conversation, after all, this is the Mayberry where we try to avoid flaming and cultivate a space for intelligent discussion and light hearted humor. If you want to convince myself, or others in this thread of your insights into the matter, its best to just state your case the best you can and perhaps you will inform others and change my mind in the process. Also, you have no idea who I am, thus cannot possibly have the information enough to determine if I am a "complete" failure. I have certainly made some terrible decisions in my life that have lead to failures of epic proportions, but I own those, and get right back up with a 'live and learn' attitude. Besides, all people at the very top have had really bad failures along the way, and unfortunately many people just can't ever get back up again, but it never helps when others kick them when they are down. So you may continue to call me a idiot, moron, failure, petty, ignorant etc...but it would be more becoming of you to offer your perspective on the matter instead.

You wanna cultivate a space for intelligent convo, but this was your first post

Gambling is for peasants that are too incompetent to bet on life, for fear of failure.

Unless it is your career choice, you are just trading money for the experience of maybe winning.

No better way to cultivate intelligent discussion than that first sentence, right?

And for the record, there is no ad hom attacks. You admitted yourself to being a complete failure in your choice of gambling. You just don't seem to understand you can be successful at sports gambling, and not everyone is an incompetent peasant who gambles.

Ok, tell me how you are a successful sports nambler.

Is anyone here doing online sports betting and making money? I was thinking about putting some of my play money into an online account and messing around with it. I don't really want to put money into it until I get more information and such. Do any of you do this successfully? Do any of you do this unsuccessfully? Is it worth it to use sites that give you their picks? What about sites that guarantee picks for a small fee?

In year 2016 I had 10k clean profit.
Right now its 2 months into 2017 and I am already in a profit with 10,330 dollars.
I think the main keys to be successful are:
1)Have balls to pick underdogs. Stats show that only 60-65% betting favorites actually win a fight
2)Discipline. If you have a losing night just swallow it. Don't go on tilt mode. Accept your losses and move on. You can't win every night.
3)Don't buy public hype (Ronda would beat mayweather etc) and don't trust MMA media picks. Media people are amateurs and history has shown that they dont know much about MMA. At the end of the day they are writers and casual fans.
4)Train martial arts. It helps to understand certain match ups and how two styles would clash. Also you would have better understanding of someones real skillset. Ignore Rogan's hype words. Training helped me a lot.

And of course you can visit Sherdog MMA betting section. I'm usually giving away my picks for free. I have a very odd style of betting. Unless you copy my bets 100% I don't recommend to use my betting style, it's really unique. It's up to people if they want to follow me or not. I'v receive messages from people thanking me for my bets etc. It's nice. And don't believe cucks who say that house wins every time, no it doesn't. Stupid casual fans with no discipline lose the money in long run. That's how 5% of the best bettors make a good money off of them.

For example here is my last weekend bets.

Morales $300 to win $512
Pedro $300 to win $700
Godbeer $300 to win $570
Sanders $300
Tybyra $300 to win $570
Overeem $300 to win $515
Cooper $300
Woodley $300 to win $635

Overeem/Tybura/Godbeer $300 to win $1863
Overeem+Hunt O1,5/Vannata/tybura/godbeer $300 to win $3000
Tybura/Godbeer/pedro $180 to win $1521
Sanders/Cooper/Morales $300 to win $1900
Woodley/Tybura/Cooper $300
David Teymur $510 to win $2000 (hedge)
Woodley+Kelly $300 to win $1750
Thompson $420 (hedge)

Finally a post worth reading. I especially like your take on training to gain perspective. Many moons ago I was deep into predicting every outcome on every card, and studied every fighter very closely including their camps, but none of that had the same value as having been training in MMA for most of my life. I will look into what you guys are up to and try a couple of test runs for old time sake.

@Joseph Budden , you could learn a thing or two from this gentlemen and scholar. That's how you change peoples positions bro, and not by getting heated and asking for dick pics on the pm. Weirdo. lol

If you don't mind my asking, how much did you initially deposit to accrue such a bank roll?

and, do you use 5dimes as well?

 

[Officer_Brown]

I think i deposited 1,5k about two years ago. (now have over 20k) Before that I was playing with peanuts for fun but realised I was winning too often so I decided to put more money in play and it worked out for me. I dont use 5dimes. I use european bookies. I'm not murican as you can understand of my English.

It was less about sucking and more about not caring. And from my first hand knowledge of working in a Casino I can tell you that the house always wins. You may be that unicorn though, good for you.

People who delude themselves with their own manipulated, desperate logic, that the odds aren't insurmountably in favor of the house are either highly uneducated (such as the majority of the people buying scratchers every day) or suffering from a mild mental disorder which stimulates an uncontrollable need go gamble (such as the people you'll find in casinos regularly).

There's no explanation which even ought to be given. If you can afford to lose the money, then like any form of entertainment, have at it, but people who love to talk about their professional gambling tend to be delusional losers who live in a constant state of denial.

I don't think TS is in any immediate danger of becoming one of those people. Casual.betting is fine. I do notice, however, that most people who do it all the time suffer from.the same illogical misbelief that they're somehow in on some secret that the rest of the world isn't aware of (despite that they're broke).

 

[Guestx]

I've been betting on MMA on and off since around 2009. About a year ago I cashed out because I needed the money and just this past weekend I finally got around to throwing a hundred bucks back into one of my accounts so I can make a few bets for fun until I can get some real money in there.

If you're smart about it, you can make at least some money. And I will concur with Officer Brown, the undedogs are often where the money is at. I remember looking over my records one year and seeing that I about broke even in all my favorites bets and all my profit came from dogs.

5dimes and Bookmaker are the best online sportsbooks.

With sportsbetting, you're not betting against the house, you're betting against the bettors on the other side of the line.

With sportsbetting, you're not betting against the house, you're betting against the bettors on the other side of the line.

You're betting against odds determined by the house in order to maximize their profit efficiency. It is a different set of circumstances than poker, or black jack, or roulette, but they're all wager games set up to earn money for the company - not the players.

The odds shift according to how money comes in. The house essentially makes money by taking a small commission, similar to the rake in a poker game.
