Can anyone win longterm WITHOUT using numbers?

[hurryupandbuy]

Of all the winning bettors, probably more than 90% are just betting numbers blindly. They are basically playing a game with the sportsbook. Scamming it more or less. About 10% use a computer model and about .0001% win with their own analysis.

Accurate, they are lucky to even win the few bets they can afford to make

Lakerboy is a Sharp ?

With all due respect , there is a good reason why he no longer keeps track of his posted wagers. You can find several threads , regardless of sport , that were abandoned the moment the losses were out of control. I also do not buy his $5,000 or $10,000 fake tickets that he posts when questioned. I am definitely not alone in this thinking.

anybody claiming $5000-$10000 bets is mostly a liar

 

[hurryupandbuy]

Fair enough. You have made an enemy here today

Your choice

lol

Yes probably

But not always

I've seen several Bettors making those big wagers daily & regularly on a 5dimes affiliate sheet years ago

Lakerboy a $100 bettor
Never tracks anything

Just do this for fun or you’ll have a miserable life take it from an expert

I wasn't really analyzing anything

I just had access to it from an acquaintance who had many players on his sheet and one day looking through it noticed the larger players and starting following to see how they did

So basically your acquaintance was a 5Dimes employee and let you looks at players info?
Not accusing you of anything here. Just find this very interesting

 

[jjgold]

Agent sheets do not work for a book directy

wager basically had a friend that showed him credit players bets

no personal info

 

[hurryupandbuy]

Yes probably

I’m talking about the guys here posting nonsense all day, not a real sharp

Franz is good ppl.

stop bickering. & stay on topic please.

He is, never said he wasn't. Just said he shouldnt be the authority as to who is "sharp" or not when he barely breaks even, if that....
Anyway, I didn't get off topic once in this thread.

Pretty sure most who have seen him post would agree Laker has his moments. When he chooses to share his thoughts on games, he has great picks. Is he an asshole? Yes but who isn't?
Does he bet all of those bets? Who knows, same could be said for 95% of posters, Franz included. Enough about LB...

I'll reiterate: I don't think you need to be a math nerd to win at sport betting. Infact, I'd say that the days where your math beats the books' are over. The most successful sport gambler ever , Walters (and others) , has been chiming this for decades. You need intuition

 

[jjgold]

Laker gets destroyed
Although that’s 98% of anyone that gambles

 

[izhuenko]

Probably impossible to win unless it's your life.

 

[izhuenko]

And it's a crappy sad life for most pros

And it's a crappy sad life for most pros

You have friends in the pro industry ?

It's not so much about outsmarting the books. It's outsmarting the other players too. Often times the book hangs a line knowing it's off and a bunch of hamburgers are going to hammer the wrong side, so at that point you are siding with the book.

Pinny does that often especially 1st half spreads and totals, the give an extra .5 ,1 and juice, wrong side much of the time College Baskets

You have to Know Your Markets, that's for sure.

 

[rip007]

I notice with 1st have totals juiced to the 'over'
Very tricky though they got those zeroed in
