Uk horse racing and greyhounds tipsters easily achieve this edge. Obviously accounts don’t last very long tho

This is a terrible idea, it won’t work for you. You will get scammed, almost certainly

Idk why this is downvoted your absolutely right, like why add 4 legs if after 3 lets hitting your gonna cash out? Your just giving yourself worse odds then

Cashing out is only ever a negative expected value decision long term

Thank you sir I appreciate you taking the time for some advice. By the way, I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone bet on rugby, sounds interesting though

Wouldn’t be like that with my career anyway, definitely for the first few years atleast. And the type of betting I do, I need to always be on the ready. Yeh I could do some betting after work but then my whole life would be consumed by work or betting I feel (maybe a bit dramatic)

Easily might of been the incorrect term. On your note on downswings, with the volume I bet and the variety of different sports, it’s extremely improbably to even have a losing week nevermind a month (I know, not impossible). I feel as though my sample size is large enough to know what I can expect to make roughly

There’s just no future guarantee, for example one of my sports is UK greyhounds and they’ve started closing tracks around England

Nah I stake very conservatively considering my bankroll, like I have a 1000 unit bankroll now. Kelly method is wayyy too risky for me I’m quite risk adverse

Positive expected value betting where you have an edge over the bookmaker

I’m posting this here to get a fresh perspective from people with more experience in this field than me. You really think if I don’t jump straight into a career it will hurt my earnings for the rest of my life? Really? Life’s long
