The above adage does not apply to sports betting. Luck is short term it cannot sustain you. Being good will have you profitable long term. Good bettors are going to get “unlucky” sometimes for extended periods of time. Accept it handle it and move on.
The bad beats do not even out. The better bets you make the more unlucky you will be. Most people do not get this concept. Understand you will be on the right side more than the wrong side and win because of your value handicapping. Therefore the short term luck factor can only work against you.
