bettor all these years. So, can I ask
exactly what it is that you are throwing your hat in the ring as to believing? :confused:
Since you seem to have disappeared for a while until resurfacing recently,, maybe you are not familiar with what is being discussed. Dietz has for years claimed he was a
professional sports bettor, saying that is how he supported himself for 40+ years. But it has come to light he is or was a tout, selling picks rather than making all his money from sports betting. He has a website, where he plainly advertised and lays out terms for perspective clients and what kind of return they could expect. So there is absolutely no question he was what I call a tout, running a service where he sold his picks to "clients".
So again I ask, exactly what are you saying you believe him on? Are you dismissing the evidence on his own website, and that he himself bragged about and still believing he supported himself from sports betting like he claimed? :confused:

Here's the problem with KewJ. He has no receipts.
No one, not Half Smoke, not Kim Lee, not Zen King, has said they believe he makes 90K to 100K a year. AND THEY ARE ANONYMOUS.
LOL.
We can sit here all day and wait for them to state unequivocally that any of them believes he made 100K a year last year, the year before, and the year before that (as an average of a decade).
We're waiting. Go do some recruiting, kewlJ. See if you can get them to to go to bat for you regarding 2024 or 2023 or 2022.
AND THEY ARE ANONYMOUS. Again, LOL.
How about Munchkin? Think he's going to swear on your income? How about anyone real? Anyone retired with a real name? Anyone who quit playing? How about "Anthony Curtis?" Kurt's not going to bat for you, is he?
So if the real people aren't going to bat for your income claims, let's hope and pray one of the anonymous folk do so.
And this doesn't even get into the ridiculous non-parallels between handicapping and playing blackjack. I filed as a "professional gambler" a couple of years. Other years, I filed federal taxes as a partner, a business owner, a proprietor, and I think I got away with a hobbyist one year (way back in the early 80's). State-wise, I got away with part-time state taxes because technically I work six months out of the year.
I have never claimed the majority of my income was from gambling per se, and I never would. I would have to be an idiot to do so. For the obvious reasons.
KewlJ says I presented myself in a way I never did. And what is his proof? He has none. No quotes, no nothing. No receipts.
Same as his receipts regarding his "professional blackjack" status in 2022, 2023, and 2024.
He has no receipts, as Candace Owens likes to say. None. Zero.
He's a handle on a forum with no connections to the actual world. It's ridiculous to treat "kewlJ" as if he's real. And the problem isn't just that he has no receipts for himself. He makes shit up about other people and declares it. It's pretty funny.
Probably a sickness. But what the hell. Maybe his psychiatrist gets him some good drugs.
