Anyone who ACTUALLY makes a living betting sports doesnโt care to teach anyone else about it. More winning bettors = less liquidity for you. This is a zero sum game, I donโt wanna teach someone how to take liquidity away from me.
Bets should never have to go to approval. You hang a line, set a limit and take that limit instantly. Too many trading rooms hold bets in the queue and accept or deny after acquiring more info. This is especially true in live betting markets.
So you went to Bet Bash and met a bunch of people and now youโre trying to decide who the fuck you should give your accounts to. This thread is about asking the right questions to find the most suitable betting partner for you. SPOILER ALERT: Iโm not asking for your accounts.

The real answer to this question is:
Who fuckin cares.
Make money, feed your family, enjoy life. Respect from a bunch of strangers on Twitter is overrated.
This is what a real book that accepts sharp action looks like. My action is welcomed because they have skilled traders who know how to leverage the information and liquidity I am providing them.

โSorry babe Nakazawa doesnโt have any reservations available for when youโre in town.โ

Seeing a lot of confirmation bias on display today. How can such strong opinions be formed off very little information? Let them launch the service and see what it is before deciding if you wanna hate on it. Good luck to

IS BUYING PICKS WORTH IT?
(1) Not too long ago I thought anyone who sold picks couldnโt make money on their own and thatโs why they sold picks. My past experiences helped shape this opinion. But I also learned that we as humans have this innate desire to think in absolutes.

1/ Your betting strategy can vary depending on where youโre at. If youโre just starting out and building a bankroll, thereโs nothing wrong with arbing or playing both sides to improve your number on a side and reduce variance.
If you've been stiffed by a PPH site, I want to know about it. If you wish to share this info, DM me with the following:

2,000 BETS
That is the bare minimum youโre gonna need in sample size before deeming any strategy profitable. Anything less is statistically insignificant. If youโre profitable over a sample of 2,000 bets, itโs safe to say itโs not luck.
Too much is a relative term, but if youโre sweating out 1 single bet, thereโs a good chance your bet more than you should. No 1 single bet should ever be big enough to make you sweat. If it does, youโre doin it wrong.
I stopped by
@SuperBookSports
today to ask
@llased
why I was limited to $100 a while back. Although Ed couldnโt come out to speak with me, he did relay a message. He said I only bet off market numbers and numbers that move. Do you accept sharp action or not?
I've received a bunch of DMs already and some people want to know what I plan to do with this information.
I am building a database that will eventually get shared with the community so people can avoid stiff agents/sites and so we can prevent a person from stiffing multiple ppl

It doesnโt matter how good you are. If you bet long enough, youโll eventually get hit by variance. How you handle inevitable downswings will determine a lot.
PROS DONT FOLD UNDER PRESSURE.
Best part about being in this business with a betting partner is the money doesnโt stop and we got each otherโs backs when one of us is sick or canโt work. Thankful to be doin this with

Not using a bot, not betting steam, not getting clv, not betting injuries, not betting extras, not betting props, but winning consistently every week in order to keep a partner happy that has 1 account with $200 limits and $1k credit

George, there was open bar for 3 straight days and enough people in there that could make you 100x what you spend if you played your cards right.

did something great for the community. $500 is pocket change. Let it go man.

is a small community. Thereโs plenty of people you can give your accounts to that can make money. But you donโt have to settle for just anyone. Ask the right questions so youโre equipped with enough information to select a partner thatโs a good fit for you.
It is acceptable for sportsbooks to prey on compulsive gamblers.
It is unacceptable for professional sports bettors to prey on said sportsbooksโ shitty traders.
If you donโt want me to bet it, donโt hang the number.
Shoutout to
@Rex_Beyers
who unlocked my account at Westgate and agreed to give me nickels on most markets as long as I follow rules. I can respect that.
(1) Shortly after we met Spanky last year we got stiffed 5 figures by a well known offshore bookie who I wonโt even mention. I reached out to Spanky to see if there was anything he could do.
My entire feed is ppl saying how great
@bet_bash
was. If you didnโt make it out this time make sure to go to the next one. Thanks again
@spanky
it turned out better than we all imagined.

if all the ppl who keep posting about how undervalued ducks are just bought 1 duck instead of posting, the floor would be 10 eth rn lol. talk is cheap. put $ where mouth is.
1/ NFTs stole our hearts this year and consumed us.
They created life changing wealth for many people including myself. So much so that we saw people quit jobs and dump all their savings into the space to take advantage of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
On this week's episode of
@CirclesOff
podcast, we are joined by pro sports bettor,
@betlikeharout
. We dissect Steam Chasing vs Originating and Harout explains how his group has been able to expand into much more than just Steam Chasing.
(3) The answer, just like anything else in life, is it fucking depends. First off, Iโd like to mention that an OVERWHELMING majority of pick services are dogshit. They suck. A lot of charlatans and people who donโt know shit taking a stab at selling coin flips.
Internet went down at my house so I had to bring my setup to my parents house. S/o to my business partner
