Whats your take on the money you make or lose in sports gambling?

Vote away, not a public poll, no-one including mods can see what you voted.

Depends on the type of luck I'm having. This past year was not good

I only tracked part of 2008 and all of 2009 completely. I had tried to track before that but always get lazy and miss a month here and a month there. If that is a large enough sample size, I would say that, overall, I am up. However, if you took it hourly, it is ridiculous how much time I invest into analyzing games and how much I've taken.

According to my haphazard stats, I am hitting at just a notch below 54% with mostly one unit ($50) and a scant few at two and three units.

2010: 70-67-5 for +2.6. Figure I spend AT LEAST one hour a day capping, thats 44 hours. I've won $130; that's about $3 an hour. Booo!

money management is key.. at first it was always losing.
But if you adopt the right plan then you can make small amounts which is how its going down now

It's obvious that with enough knowledge and skills people can make money gambling, but how one goes about doing that is a personal journey and i think that is what appeals the most to me, in the end you are on your own and it's fun trying to find ways to create success without spending huge amounts of time on it

agree with this completely but almost never thought of it like that

i love when i can come up with a card in a couple minutes and just know i have a couple winners. sometimes it isn't as easy, but with some games they just stick out now
