Mickey, I still believe Redietz is a person who make his money from sports betting for many years/decades. And I think that is part of his problem. He can't accept that modern day AP's are able to make money off sports betting now, using the bonuses and stuff. Not even handicapping games. Axelwolf is the perfect example. Axelwolf has told everyone long ago, he has no real interest in sports, or casual at best. But he is an AP and saw the opportunity with the bonus stuff. I actually am a sports enthusiast. And my sports betting up til now has been that of a ploppie sports enthusiast. It was always entertainment for me.
But I have now followed axelwolfs lead and am playing the bonus game. Am I playing it the most efficient way possible doing things like middling? playing it the way redietz would? No. It isn't my full time gig. And I don't have hours and hours to spend watching for line changes. As a matter of fact, I make all my wagers on Friday night in a 9 hour window to take advantage of the 5% vig. I am simp,ly volume betting, hoping to be above or as close to 50% as possible to eat as little of my bonus money as I can. My bonus money was 21k and I am hoping to clear 18k. Part-time supplemental for me. I am not trying to be a full-time sports bettor. And then, if it all works and I get paid, I will start a second cycle for the second half of football season bleeding over to January/february and I guess some NHL/NBA games. That is why I am pushing to get through my first cycle quickly. Again, I am sorry if redietz doesn't approve.
And you are right about managing our time. It so happens for the last year or two, weekends has been my busy time. I play blackjack Friday and Saturday nights during the busier times. Sometimes playing 10-12 hours straight through morning. And then watch sports during the day, which I enjoy doing. I am not sitting there for hours and hours looking for some last second line move so I can middle.
I am sorry if redietz doesn't approve or appreciate what I or any of the AP's are doing with sports betting and the bonuses. Redeitz reminds me of some of the older blackjack card counters that I still encounter on a couple forums. Guys that played in the 80's and 90's when card counting WAS advantage play. They seem annoyed at all the different advantage play things players are doing now. That is exactly how I see redeitz. Old school, annoyed at the opportunities and things players can do now. Well get the fuck over it redietz. IT is 2023!
