Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling?

[sana54210]

I am sure there are people who rely on gambling to meet their needs, but it will have a great risk that can ruin the whole life because gambling will depend on luck that unfortunately does not always come. Professional gamblers mostly need good money management tho.

You can't call yourself as professional if you don't possess all the necessary skills to do well in gambling, professional gamblers also does not rely on luck, it's their job so they need consistency in order for them to be profitable in the long run.

This is not easy for us  but they made a success because they spend time to study and develop themselves in gambling, how I wish I will become a professional gambler but you know when you don't have the talent, you can't force yourself to be one.

You are right bro. Those professional gamblers are just like those of us that work in different firms. I have one as a friend and I always wonder his passion for gambling. He goes as far as paying to learn new skills and always focused when playing. Not everyone can be a professional player, those who are called so, deserve all the accolades they get, because they sacrifice a lot to become who they are and what they achieve in gambling.

I am just cool by being a neutral player. I enjoy my game for fun and I make profit sometimes and it’s interesting. I would have probably learnt to be a PRO if I didn’t have a job of my own, because some of the friends I have who are professional gamblers are not working in any organization, they take gambling strictly as their place of work.

professionals love gambling and aren't afraid to risk huge amount of money because they can quickly earn it.

yes they can earn it fast compare to a regular gamblers because they are pro and skillful enough but i dont think that they arent afraid  , i dont think that they arent afraid to take risk because they are only humans and they arent perfect . there is still a posibility that they can loose in a game  . alot of things can happen when they loose like they can loose thier title or reputation  and worst of all they loose money  .

They still lose their games even at the position of being a professional gambler. I was funtunate to associate with some gamblers and know pretty much in their ways of life, they are risk takers and not professionals like we thought, they lose often but ready to take any risk to take back their loses, this makes them differs from us the regular gambler's.

Of course, because they spend most of their time in gambling and they are very ambitious.
Well, professional gamblers does not have to win all the time, they just need to win most of the time so they can be profitable.

I admire those sports bettor who are really good, I've known someone, an online sports betting, and he advise me to have a decent bankroll if I want to be successful as that's the only way we can seriously take what we are doing.

Typical gamblers usually does not have a decent bankroll, and they don't manage it well, professionals are different, they have their own and that bankroll in intended for long term purposes or up to a specific period.

Even if they lose, they still try to gamble, but they can make money on the other days. Maybe they are very lucky to do that because not all gamblers can win in the gambling and we know that needs luck. That is why some gamblers still want to try to become a pro and still gamble because the prizes are too big to imagine. They would accept the risk because they know that is what happens in gambling, so that will not be a problem for them.

I believe everything in life  is a risk, so if anyone decides to take gambling as a profession, it’s not a big deal as long as they work out strategy to avoid loses, keep winning and not been addicted. This is the major thing to look at. Gambling can be very addictive and before anyone concludes on having it as a profession, one would have been well disciplined to overcome addiction and stay in charge of the game.

I did betting as a profession for over 2 years before I finally got myself a job, I think that’s almost 5 years back, I lost my job at that time and I needed something to keep me going, it was fun having to run it as a profession. I made sure I used every opportunity I got to play to minimize losses and maximize profit and it sustained my needs during those times.

If you have a good attitude and if you do have a much better mindsets to overpower greediness, chances to make a decent profits from this venue of activities is really possible, there's different approaches coming from people who do understand how to deal with this professions, it's a tough call when
you focus and dedicated your time to bring something and keep trying to continue your winning streaks.

People with good emotional control can dictate the possible outcome of their gambling activities, they can avoid burning everything as they can manage well their bankroll to stay in positive sides.

[michellee]

It is possible but such people are not that much in the society particularly if you compare them with those who usually make lost in gambling through either poker game, spotbet and casino game. Most bof the people I know do it as another source of income and not there main source of income though the profit they make from gambling is just a little over the lost they make over time.

If we want to live in gambling, we have to focus on it and be sure we have huge money to risk for. It cost a lot before we become successful in gambling and they dedicated their self in here not even having more time spend with their family.
 How it's hard but they have to do it in order to achieve what they are aiming. How's that life could be boring into the others, that is why only few will succeed in gambling.

I am not sure that we need to focus on the game because as long as you don't know when the luck comes, you will feel difficult to win, and it might make you become stress. I think some of us who want to be a pro gambler is still trying to make money, but they realize that it is too hard to get the win. Besides that, many gamblers in the crypto gambling games don't have huge funds to gamble, and we really depend on our luck to win.

I am just wondering what you mean by them sacrificing. It is safe to say you are one of the supports of gambling a s a profession and that’s not really a good thing. Gambling is a game for entertainment and I believe that’s the kind of player you are. How then can you admire someone who is doing something wrong and against gambling policy because I believe gambling as a profession is not recognized in gambling.

If the efforts professional gamblers put into the game was invested into something better, they would definitely be better citizens of their different countries but then, they decided to waste the effort on something that is not profitable.

Lol those you mentioned is not a professional gamblers because a gambler with skills and abilities don’t gamble constantly specially when they feel like luck wasn’t on their side

Maybe they are very lucky to do that because not all gamblers can win in the gambling and we know that needs luck.

This happens once every blue moon and not for many people so I think this is isolated cases and cannot be expected for many occasions

That is why some gamblers still want to try to become a pro and still gamble because the prizes are too big to imagine. They would accept the risk because they know that is what happens in gambling, so that will not be a problem for them.

I believe that being a professional gambler isn’t a thing people intended to be,it’s just happen that the found the skill and luck always turns to them that’s why they use it as a career

As in any sport, there are those who live off the prize pool. And that allows them to live comfortably. For others, this is a hobby that is designed to provide pastimes.

Since you went through that phase and survived, I am sure you would agree that with time you only up losing more than what you make so gambling habits should be kept within strict limits for addicted gamblers with some breaks in between to prevent huge losses. Bankroll management is one of the key points that people miss out ending up in devastating losses and thus I emphasize on that for anybody willing to take the risk.

I believe those who tend to boast about their gambling skills are typically bluffs - I am not referring to jostorres though, but those who appear on media and all telling people about other sites, they are bascially paid actors for the casinos.

The others are the majority of gamblers, some of us are ambitious but we still fall and realize in the end that we cannot make a living in gambling, that's why it's better to convince ourselves that we should do it for fun, with this, we can avoid losing more money that we will use to experiment.

I know people who are successful in gambling inspires us, and we believe because it's possible for them, we can also do it, but it's just sad that we don't have the skills that they do, and no matter we tried, as long as this is not for us, we will not be productive on it.

If others can do it, why not us? Just kidding. I think those who've had success in gambling have the knack for it right from the start. Some people are simply made to do a certain thing. Gambling doesn't need actual education and training. Experience can be a big boost to one's chances but a lot of experienced gamblers just aren't getting that far as well. Professional gamblers mostly make money from sponsors. There are only a few who are skilled, or let's say lucky enough to actually make a lot of money from consistently winning.

[RealMalatesta]

In my opinion, not everything should be done because we consider everything in life a risk. Of what use is it to lose everything you ever owned because you are trying to get back money that isn’t guaranteed, that’s foolishness to me. I would also add by saying, there’s no kind of strategy that makes anyone win, that’s another big deceit.

If you played for years professionally without losing and also getting addicted, I think you should be grateful, because you were only lucky and it’s not by your efforts. This is the reason no one should be encouraged to become a professional gambler. You can play for fun and still make money occasionally.

[livingfree]

Yes, there are those people that we call professional gamblers but they have their own genre of games on where they are good. I think there's more or majority with poker and also with sports betting.

Because with those games, relying on luck is very little and it depends on how skillful you are. I'd like to try it out but I have given it up and much better to gamble base on how I feel.

those are gambling areas that you can mostly see professional gamblers that are really living out of gambling. since they are not relying entirely on their luck but their acquired knowledge of the game, they have high probability of winning as compared to other casino games.
if you are a loyal supporter of one specific sport like decades in the making, i believe you know already the chances of each player or each team for a particular match.
Btw, you can read blogs about being a professional sports bettor

Just curious here.
I know there are tons of way to live.

but is there such a thing as professional gamblers?

people who make a living onlyout of gambling (online or on rl)?

resources and comments on that are really welcome.

Depends on what games will we consider, I highly doubt anyone will make livings with slots for example but there are some peoples who make livings by playing poker, you know in real life gambling it's not so hard to understand your opponents emotions, especially if you are expert in it.
Btw I had one neighbor who was earning living money for years by betting on sports games. At some point I was following him.

I do not deny that because many people in my country depend on it. Actually, it is okay as long as people who earn money from gambling manage their money properly. However, they still face a big risk by risking life.

I believe that were many people who can live out from gambling too. But I think they hide their gambling activity to other people as gambling prohibited in my country. If someone caught by playing gambling, then he will get jail. I heard from some of my friends that in some place, many people gather and play a card game with money involved. But if some police come to that place, they hide the money and only say that they have a meeting to celebrate something.

But it is safer to play online gambling because we can hide our place and our identity, especially if we use cryptocurrency. People out there don't know what we did in our home, and they will think that we are work online.

I also think so, depending on the game the gambler uses. for games based on luck, of course living from that game is impossible because constant profits will be difficult to obtain even if you are an expert. different from poker or sports betting that is not entirely about luck.You can make a steady profit, and a higher chance of win
