Message: [QUOTE="XLCenterFan, post: 4860900, member: 8712"] Great points. I feel like I’m in the same boat as you. It takes a while to learn the ins and outs and to find a good strategy to simply break even. It also takes some guts to keep going and some restraint when you’re thinking of doing something wild. I had steaks where it felt like I would never win again and runs where it felt like I would never lose again. Playing poker and understanding variance has helped my sports betting. I also have learned to value the advice of professionals - Rick Run Good and the PME show for golf, Teddy Covers, Marco D’Angelo, RJ Bell, etc. Always look to fade the public and never pay more than -110. Also can’t be results-oriented. Even a good bet will lose. Example: You find a spread bet that is paying +110. If someone offers to flip a coin with you and will give you better than even money, you have to do it. Even if you lose, it’s a good bet. [/QUOTE]
