Is sports betting a good way to make side money? Assuming you put a decent amount of research into the games you bet on and have good bankroll management? Or is it something that should just strictly be a hobby?

It's a crime in the land of the freee because our schools don't educate us and so we need big government to ban us from everything to protect stupid people from doing stupid things.
>>
>>3439074
Yeah it's technically illegal but there are many online sportsbooks that people use and pretty much no one ever faces legal consequences

>tfw have developed a strategy over the past 2 weeks that has helped me push 9 times and win 5
>tfw won't share it with /biz/

>>3438845
i truly think trading shitcoins is easier if you're not completely retarded
>>
>>3439103
it wont last.

14 games doesn't mean shit. come back after you've bet on 100
>>
>>3439160

I don't actually have the exact numbers, I simply haven't lost on it once and I am nearing 20 tries

in the world of statistics >20 starts becoming very significant with binomial independent events

i kill it on DK regularly

It is not a good way to make side money. The best gamblers/handicappers in the world shoot for 60% success rate.

The only viable strategy for normies is to load up on heavy favorites and hope for the best at poor odds.

But if the law doesn't scare you, you should become a bookie. If you set your action right, you never lose money.

Was a pro for 2 years before restricted to mainly asian books made it too hard, have now reinvested in other ventures. will answer questions if anyone has them, lots of misconceptions around it.
>>
>>3439074
Really? What about bovada
>>
>>3439216

Restricted? And how do you get stuck on asian books
>>
>>3439203
check this article out

http://www.makegamedayeveryday.com/newsfeed/2015/11/18/10152/i-turned-300-into-over-100000-heres-my-story

That guy turned $300 into 100k in less than 2 months by just betting the money line on heavy favorites.

But he honestly just got really lucky in my opinion. The winning streak he went on is not something you will see very often. And I believe he mentions that he tried this nearly 20 times before it worked out for him.

i tried for so long to make a successful asian handicapping strategy but made no success

the biggest and best gambles are in crypto, just gotta be patient
>>
>>3439239
Restricted as in, either banned or have lowered bets to around 5% or 1% of max bet, or they go to trader and get refused each time. And Asian bookmakers don't usually restrict and lay much higher bets.
>>
>>3439088
That's not the point. I'm irritated that our government requires everything to be banned to protect us and to control every little thing and I'm tired that one of the main reasons is because so many people are literally retarded so they demand for a big government to cover everything in bubble wrap to protect retards from doing stupid things.

>>3439300
euan?

>>3439439
So you're hijacking my thread to make a political statement?
>>
>>3439266
as a degenerate, I am familiar with this system, but am too impatient with the odds being so terrible. However, This may be something that I will have to try. Remember I called myself a degenerate.

amirite?

>>3439495
no but I know of him, was a /bet/ lurker for a bit, even though it was mostly a shambles.
>>
>>3438845
It is a fucking addiction. I know a kid who has turned $200 into ~30k in about a year. It is a full time job for him.
>>
>>3439482
>>3439266
That is a logical strategy, but very risky. It takes only one huge upset for you to lose 30% of your earnings.
>>
why waste the capital, if you already trade crypto literally why bother

I bet $5k on the Mayweather match and had to wait two long weeks to watch the fight and won $3k vs how two days ago I put up $750 to gamble online while I smoked and thirty minutes later I have $3k going to my bank account. Your chances to win massive amount are shit but with gambling you don't have to wait to lose your money.
>>
>>3439815
That mayweather bet was a lock.

I'm kicking myself for not getting in on that.
>>
>>3439879
I'll never forget my family and friends telling me how fucking dumb I was for putting $5k on Mayweather to win by TKO. They weren't laughing at me after the fight.
>>
>>3439974
>by tko
Pretty much any market on mayweathers side was good value but depending on your br 5k on a tko could be considered dumb.

Why sports betting? Go with roulettes. All you need is 10 BTC in fiat to become a millionaire. You know you only have to go all-in and double your money 10 times to become a millionaire because 2^10 = 1024. With roulettes you can double your money with a probability of about 0.5 by putting it on either red or black. So the probability of winning 10 times in a row is 0.5^10 = 1/1024. So you only have to do it 1024 times to get it done once. When you use 10 BTC you can try it about 2048 times. Should be enough room even for the unlucky guys. Why don't you simply go to the casino and become a millionaire?
