If someone is good at making daily or weekly bets....and growing their money on a daily or weekly basis......then why would they be interested in letting casinos hold their money in future bets for months and months. Sometimes 6 months.

Couldnt that money be used more efficiently by snowballing it with successful bets throughout the year?

Plus the way I see it....future bets are a bigger gamble because you are not just betting on talent, you are also betting on the health or non health of a team.

So for the people who for example wait till an hour before kickoffor at least a day before kickoff t get the true weather), in order to get the total up to date info on injuries and weather........it would be against everything they believe to also bet 6 months into the future.
My guess would be futures bets represent a very small percentage of bankroll.
