I thought the same thing when I saw it, but one of my degen gambler friends corrected me. Its volume and only being slightly better than a coin flip to be considered a good sports gambler (essentially, 57% is killing it). See below (his text to me when I brought up the same issue): It’s vig and volume related. Risk $110 to win $100 standard Now do that 10000 times a year so risk $1,100,000 to win $1,000,000. If you win 50% of those still lose $50,000 Now do that 10000 times a year so risk $1,100,000 to win $1,000,000. If you win 55% of those win $55,000 Now do that 10000 times a year so risk $1,100,000 to win $1,000,000. If you win 60% of those win $160,000 Now win 55% risking $1,100 to win $1,000 every play and you clear $550,000 a year. Not bad for airing on your couch drinking beer Hitting 52.38% winnings is essentially your break-even point at 10% juice. So that shows the power of the vig. Always try to save and find a lower juice as it’s is worth a ton of “real” money Same scenarios from above but w 5% 50/50 win net -$25,000 (vs -50k) 55/45 win net $77,500 (vs 55k) 60/40 win net $180,000 (vs 160k) 55/45 win (1k per game) net $775,00 (vs 550k) Breakeven at 5% is 51.2% 2 Quote Link to comment
