If you approach this endeavor as having a little fun a hobby wanting a few bucks on the game while watching it on TV nothing wrong with that. However if you want to make substantial money turn a profit year after tear than sports betting must be approached as a business. A GREAT business in my opinion but none the less a business. As with any business you need an investment (it takes some money to make money) and you need discipline.

When someone tells you they are very good at something it probably takes you less than a minute of listening to figure whether they are boasting, bragging egotistical exaggerating call it what you want or even just plain lying. We all come across these people all the time. Experts on every topic or endeavor. It is probably even more pronounced in sports betting industry where touts scam artists are shouting from every social media platform possible to state how great they are. The old adage applies still today it is the quiet ones you have to pay attention to.

I am sure most of you have heard the phrase “trust your instincts”. This is awful advice for the sports bettor especially a beginner.

Value in sports betting is the equivalent to location in business. Both are essential to profit long term.
If you “like” a particular side but you bet in to a bad line (overpriced) you will NOT make money over the long haul. Value betting/handicapping is betting the right team at the right price. You cannot have one without the other. If you have no edge weakness in the line for a given game than your optimal bet size is ZERO.

We often draw comparisons to the similarities between the stock market and sports betting. There are many reasons in my opinion why sports betting is far superior to the stock market as an investment vehicle. The biggest reason it is an even playing field for everyone.
Absorb the following quote from a successful Wall Street investor. “After making and losing millions of dollars I want to tell you it was never my THINKING that made the big money for me. It always was my SITTING.

Know Your Edge 04/19/15 (more...)

The difference between being highly profitable or going bankrupt in this business is razor thin. In a micro example 11-9 every 20 plays +1.1 units big money. 10-10 every 20 plays -1.0 units eventually your bankroll grinds to zero. I know the above is a simplistic example but over a large enough sample size that is exactly what happens.
