Can gambling be profitable in long term ?

[Xenoph0bia]

For me the best way to gambling is betting on sports. If you follow teams, you know that they are surely win (there is never 100% guarantee , but it's better way than roulette etc.). You can try onehash.com. They got good rates. Some of them are unique. ^^

Yes, you are right. If we follow the particular sport, team and their players then its  easy to predict the possibilities of the result. Though its not 100 % sure but we can be little bit closer and at least we can minimize the loss. Its always safe to betting on sports than other online sites.

I sort of disagree.  Even the experts are right just above 50% of the time.  These are guys who are watching, analyzing every detail and still only get better than 50% just barely.  I would say the best gambling that you can be the most profitable on is live Poker.

Gambling can be profitable in REAL casinos using professional methods of card counting and bankroll management combined. Just search the MIT Blackjack Team as one example. Online Casinos you will not be profitable in the long run unless you hit a jackpot, or are a sports bettor that has the skills of a professional handicapper.

It can if you test your luck accordingly and know how to manage loses and know when to stop. If you limit X time to gambling monthly you will see some positive results, but you need to stop gambling as soon as you are on a loss. Some people can't defeat that temptation and give up tho.

Any gambling can be profitable in long term as long as you can keep yourself under control.

Seems easy to do but it really hard to do ... Trust me.

Choose game with low stress level so you can have good self control. Thats mean no stupid bet and know when to stop !

I prefer sport game , soccer.

[bytezero]

Yes it is if you bet only in sports. If you play roulette you will lose in the long run.

Keyword is control. Agreed, that's the hardest thing to do, but I keep losing with style (though that means more faucet draining until I gather enough to run towards the next losing spree).

maybe not, it depends on your luck, even in the sports gambling also you can lose

[SyGambler]

Yes it is if you bet only in sports. If you play roulette you will lose in the long run.

even sports , it's hard to achieve profit by betting on sports cause usually the house will give you shit odds
there is only about 1% of sportsbettors who are really beating the game and achieving profit
it's not that easy , you need to study every small detail to achieve profit

Not only 1%, should be over 10%, in every gambling games, there are always 10% winners in the long term, in short term, maybe over 50% if players are lucky. In sports betting, there are some experts on sports betting, so I estimate could be 10%-20% winners in long term, and many good poker players are also sports bettors, once I watch high stake poker season X, there is a Canadian sports bettor and poker player, I don't remember his name.

Card counting in Blackjack works and it is profitable in the long term. That is why it is banned in casinos. Gambling on "random" conditions is a sure loss in the long term. I am not sure about sports betting. It is easier to predict, but also lower expected return. You can win little by little frequently, but loose previous winnings in an unexpected match result.

It used to be possible.  And Card Counting is not banned in Casinos, it is simply frowned upon, (I am sure some casinos don't allow it though)

Now with 4 and 6 shoe decks it is next to impossible to count cards and thus the problem has been fixed.

i think its possible to earn that much by gambling though i dont think that someone can be lucky enough to hit so much big wins one day after another

[apriyani420]

i dont believe its nothing near possible in order to achieve such winnings you need to be extremely lucky and i dont think that someone will risk so much just to win a bit more

It all depends on your understanding of profits. I'm rather poor so if I were to gain 1% on my wagered money every month I'd call it a profit. Some people would call it a waste of time and would feel bad if they managed to gain only 12% a year.

Casinos are profitable gambling all the time. The key is that they are making +ev bets for them.

None of the other BS spewed here matters, all that matters is expected value. If you make bets that have a positive expectation, you can be profitable gambling. It is not easy to find/make those bets if you aren't running a casino, but it is possible.

Sports betting is good in small and long term of gambling, it is the matter of knowing the condition of the ground which they are playing , analyse the teams who are playing with their previous records and what changes happened to them, if you analyse it if not you can take service from professionals who are giving their services for small service charges.

Sports betting is all about patience game.

I do agree with you.
IMO, you can make a good profit in long term if you have a massive capital to play martiangle on dice or play big on sport match.

Just think about this, if gambler can be profit for long term, there will be no casino that can still operate for a long time.

Poker is a game that involves more skill than luck so it is viable long term. Poker is very competitive these days though.
