When you do your homework, the industry rewards you

Gambling - just like any industry rewards no one who is not a member.

It’s built to reward only those who build it long term - a small percentage manage to beat it at its own game and survive off what they earn from it and some have a good day/week/month and mistake that for having “beat the house”.

Fact is unless you win multiple seasons consecutively - you’re just part of the 99% that built this industry. 99% give - 1% take because the cost to effectively shut down that 1% is more costly than just letting them live.

I could care less what it feels like to bet $10,000 - I’ve done it and feels no different than betting $10 - actually betting $10 is much more of a rush when you have $12 in your wallet and winning is the difference between getting a single pint or a pint and a meal that night. What I want to know is how it feels to be part of that 1% and walk into a sportsbook knowing damn well they fear me.
good post

@jjgold Banana caping is key. I climbed the Oiler tree, but also saw just enough bananas in the Ducks tree to cause me to pause. Then I counted all of the bananas and we hit a key number that made the over an auto bet. 8 goals through 2 periods. As they say, proof is in the bananasView attachment 84289

You gotta love these guys on forums that talk about the "industry" and "trading" thinking they are like KVB, Justin7 and Ganch. They talk a big game like they are on Wall Street trading stocks. The industry this the Industry that. Can you imagine the conversations they have with people in their personal lives bragging to them about their knowledge of sports betting and the "industry" They think they are something they are not. I equate it to the same people that got credit accounts with Minny thinking they were a big shot getting a credit account. Anytime you hear people talking about the "industry" if you can read that with a straight face and not laugh, you are either just like them very delusional or are new around here and simply don't understand the terminology . It is pure comedy.
