Professional Sportsbetting

[AxelWolf]

Where Red? Where are these APs claiming or thinking they are experts?

On this forum, the APs that seem to be doing some sports betting have said just the opposite. Axelfolf has repeatedly said he doesn't know much about or watch sports. I have repeatedly said that I am a losing recreational sports bettor. The winning I am doing now is strictly because of the bonuses (AP play), not because I am picking winners. Mickeycrimm hasn't said what he is doing, but you can bet it is +EV or an AP play.

Who else? Druff, monet, Half Smoke or a couple others that sometimes make public picks? Never heard anyone say they were an expert at anything about sports betting. They are doing something AP-wise that makes their play +EV.

It is only you that claims to be some great handicapper who has made a living exclusively from sports picking for decades. And now you take offense at anyone applying anything +EV that makes a little money.


Where Red?

I never said I don't watch sports, I absolutely love watching football, MMA and boxing. I'm just not a fanatic about it. I know guys that dedicate entire days to watching Sports and making bets right on schedule. I used to religiously watch football. But nowadays, I'm good for a couple of games a week at most.

I rarely stop what I'm doing or go out of my way just to watch an event unless it's something special. I do bet on lots of different things that I don't watch.

At the start of this football season, I was planning to do a lot more sports betting and sports watching while taking advantage of + EV bonuses online.
I did do some of that, but I didn't watch anywhere near what I thought I would be watching(that reminds me to cancel ESPN Plus)
I did end up wagering somewhere in the neighborhood of $300,000. The problem is that I have too many irons in the fire to concentrate on the sports stuff and dedicate enough time. Especially when I feel that I'm handicapped in sports betting when it comes to finding +EV value on the games continually and at that point, I'm just flipping coins. I ended up giving up some EV and made a side deal to lock up some profits and to relieve myself of the obligation.

I can't imagine a time when I won't be betting on sports or looking for some +EV betting situations and watching some along the away.
