Can we really make a living in sports betting?

[Zaguru12]

I already know many friends who are involved in gambling, they spend their time in the world of gambling for 24 hours, without working, the fact is I don't see them being able to cover the needs of their families, what happens is fights in the household, so why do they keep on gambling if this happens, the biggest factor is addiction and lazy work, hoping to get big wins.

This clearly explains the act of anyone seeing gambling as a job. They end up having a broken home and some of them also ends up been an Alcohol addict. Religion aside, this is reason why the society frowns at gambling. Sports Gambling is to be participated in just for fun like sports itself and not a day job where you feed on. How many of these so call winners even use the wins wisely. Since is their only source of income they tend to gamble on the win. So personal I don’t see betting of any form a source of livelihood. And it should be frowned upon.

I heard lots of stories online that there are people who are making a living in sports betting, and honestly it really inspires me that's why I'm still gambling now. So I'm just curious, do we have members of the forum here that are making a living in sports betting? Can they share some inputs on how to be successful like them?

I hope they will share so we will know if it's really possible. I mean, as the saying goes, casinos always win because they have the advantage, so how come people are making a living in sports betting?

~%20 of pro sports betters make big money long-term. How is it possible? If you play something stupid, like slots, you have zero chance of winning long-term, the odds will always get you eventually. With sports betting, the casino does take a cut from both sides, but your opponent is not mathematical odds, you are competing against the other people who place bets, you actually have a chance to win long term.

In any kind of gambling, it will never be advisable to depend or rely that much on winning in this industry. Winning in the first place will never be certain even on sportsbetting wherein odds could be determined through data from players or teams. Anything could happen and that is how fate or luck plays a role in betting or gambling. Indeed there are people who made millions of profit from gambling but would it mean that I'd have the same earnings? Definitely not. There is a huge difference with each of the players' capital (the bigger it will be would generate bigger profit but would remain uncertain), gambling or betting strategy (anyhow won't mean certainty) and luck ofcourse. When it comes on a daily living, consistency is a must.

Not all can make a living through sports betting. This is still gambling and even the seasoned sports gambler loses so the need to have bankroll for months. With a big bankroll, you are able to weather losing streaks that will be on your way at some point. Money management is an important aspect of sports betting.

Making a living in sports batting is not an easy task. Because there is no guarantee of winning. It is not even possible to win consecutively. Because fate will not always be the same. Sports betting people who are profitable from here are truly lucky but to me it seems almost impossible. But I believe that it is possible to earn well with sports betting but not to maintain its consistency. It is possible to profit from sports betting if you can stay ahead of the win-loss ratio. But this requires proper education. How to protect yourself from addiction, greed should be well understood. Above all it is very important to know some basic things to win in gambling.

Casinos always win and always have advantages in luck-based games but in sports betting the gamblers have a good chance to win but not beat the house, I have a share and bad and good experience in sports betting but my knowledge is not enough to make a living out of it when it comes to sports betting I have a good chance to win on peer to peer than betting in casinos in sports betting section, but passion on the sports is the first requirement for you to bet in sports betting with good chances of winning.

Any individual can make a living off of anything so long as they stay consistent and committed to it.
So yes, one can make a living off of sports betting if they are consistent and committed to it. Professional bettors make a living off sports betting. A professional bettor is an individual who considers betting as an opportunity to consistently make money on it. This YouTuber is a professional sports bettor and makes a living from it.

Why not, we have some gamblers making it out from gambling with sport betting, this is not what they have been into within a short period but they have a better experience in this over years and don't be surprised that though their winnings may be low amount but they got it more frequently than expected, thwy know to to go about it, even as many are loosing we have sone gamblers that almost win on a consistent level, what they do is to reduce the risk and maximize the winning opportunities with sport betting and they win no matter the little it may be.

[Plaguedeath]

If you ask to me does a gambler can make a living in sports? I will say it's possible, but if you ask me does every gamblers can make a living in sports? I will say it's impossible. If every gamblers are win on the bookies, then the bookies doesn't earn anything. If gamblers are consistently win in every sports, the bookies will lower the max bet since they don't have a lot bankroll anymore. The worst case the bookies would abandon their project and not pay the winnings due to insufficient funds.

That's because Sports betting and casino are not the same. Casino is mainly based on luck but sports betting is mainly based on knowledge. Now that you know their difference, I hope you will now know why it's possible for some people to make a living with sports betting.

I know this sounds inspiring to you or to anyone else and you may want to go to this path too but you shouldn't hurry up. It will still need a long year of experience before you get on their level. Once you figured out that you have a good winning rate (can be 85 to 90% and up) then that could be the time that you are ready to abandon your main job and other sources of income only to focus full-time in sports betting.

Yes, there are lots of gamblers who make a living in sports betting but we should not disregard the fact that it will be too risky to rely everything on gambling. You could make money but you could also have huge losses because of the possibility of losing. For you to be able to make a promising profit, you have to make sure that you know how sports betting works and you should also be familiar with the game as well as the players but sports betting could sometimes provide an unpredictable result so you must also be ready to deal with the risk of losing.

[ethereumhunter]

Yes, betting on sports betting can indeed provide a living but it's not easy because before that, we must have the ability to analyze so we can really choose the right team. But I don't know if any of the forum members here can make a living out of sports betting because that's everyone's secret. We don't even see members here showing their victory too often. Those who make a living from gambling hope to be able to win a lot of money from gambling because they see that there are already many who can earn a lot of money. That's why they are curious and want to try it, but they are not ready for the risks and many have suffered big losses.

[Casdinyard]

Sports betting for a living may seem like a farfetched dream for some, but honestly it's one of the most viable ways of earning profits in the gambling industry. For one, sports betting doesn't include blindly letting yourself be taken apart by the house advantage or whatever odds are there, because you'd have the opportunity to study games played by teams and know what their strengths and weaknesses are. Although it must be pointed out that this is easier said than done. It takes a lot of patience and latent research and observation skills to consistently pull profits from this venture and not everyone is going to be that person. So proceed with caution if you consider using this venture as a source of income. Personally I wouldn't recommend it, but you do you.

There are many fake stories online, don't believe everything you read.

so how come people are making a living in sports betting?

There are people who have made it through sports betting, they were lucky once and won a huge sum of money that changed their life, that can be a target for someone who sport bets, not making a living off sports betting which means depending on it fully to survive, that can be very unreliable, unless you plan to become a tipster, which also does not guarantee financial security.

I have seen gamblers that won big and used the wins to establish a viable business that is currently sustaining them. But relying on wins from gambling for daily or monthly expenses might not be the right decision. This is because income from gambling is unpredictable and unreliable. You might be lucky to win this month and might not win for many months, how would you survive? The best option still remains that gambling should not be recognized as a main source of income but it could give some side or passive income. All gamblers should have stable jobs to avoid gambling addiction and other health issues. It is also important to invest or make good use of the money that is won from gambling it shouldn't be spent on luxuries as many gambler do.

I don't think so because to make a living you need consistency. You're not talking about winning big one time and living the rest of your life on that win, we're talking about winning monthly, maybe weekly.
That's something nobody can guarantee you and you or anybody else should not live worrying if they will have money to pay the rent next month.

Gambling can be good supplementary income especially when it only takes an hour or two a day to make predictions and place new bets. What are you going to do with the rest of your time?

Don't try to make a life as a gambler. Be a professional in something and then a gambler in your free time.

Not only members here. People have really gone into gambling because of lack of jobs and some have been successfully cashing out heavily from it especially on soccer on a daily basis.

I don't really know how people are making leaving from gambling, but to be honest most addicted gamblers believe if they keep on gambling, they are going to win big that's why it's always difficult for addicted gamblers to stop gambling, if you are gambling because you are looking for money, then the amount you might endup losing will be more than the amount you will win whenever you are going to win because you will definitely be desperate for the money.

If you depend on gambling for leaving, what will happen when you don't win within a particular time, am not asking people not to gamble, but we shouldn't depend on gambling for leaving, I think that's just my suggestion.

I can say based on my knowledge that if you were able to control your emotions and have limits on the amounts and number of bets you take, you could make reasonable profit as there is always a level of risk you could choose considering there are different odds, so you can stay with the small odds that provide high winning probability, but I think it's not an easy matter as the greed always steps in to force you to make additional bets or high odds bets, which usually results in losing your money.

Truly there are plenty gamblers in third world countries who makes a living via sport betting due to the high rate of unemployment in their countries thus are full time gamblers, of course they are very skillful in analyzing matches and they usually have a group chat where they suggest pick of the day, I came across one of their forum where many of them do table their present condition in term of reliance on betting to make end meet or for a living, consequently they make money and some reasonable profits from winnings from their bettings, however I don't think this is applicable in advance countries where people gamble just for fun at times do earn extra income from it.

Actually, we have a lot of discussion related to your question. I will answer it, it depends on the ability you have. So, the answer is very relative depending on one's insight ability, how does he know the ins and outs of the world of sports that he studies, we take the example of football.

to become a professional gambler. you need a lot of knowledge, high insight regarding football itself. coach patterns, coach strategies, team strengths, injured players, teams that are on fire, whatever it is, you have to know as much detail as possible to be a benchmark in your betting. you also have to do an analysis, and for sure it takes up a lot of your time. moreover, you should watch the matches of the leagues that concern you. there are various things that a person needs to know if he wants to become a professional, how is it different from a football observer. at least, you have to have what I said in this post as basic capital.

even so, in every bet no matter how observant you are in terms of analyzing. still, the end result will be very closely related to the luck factor, even though it is based on various knowledge. so, I can't say that sports betting can be a place to make a living.  because I haven't reached that stage yet, my knowledge is still very limited regarding analysis. in fact, there are many people who are involved and become professional gamblers in the world of sports.

Why should these people share their stories just to prove that's possible? It's not their responsibility and I don't see any reason why should they shared it.

Let's put it this way, it's really possible to make a living in sports betting but not all are capable of doing that.

They surely undergo lots of failures and losses before reaching that status where they can make a living now thru sports betting. Besides, surely these bettors are able to gather more profits by now since they started their journey in sports betting that's why there's no pressure at all if they lose a certain match.
