A professional gambler is someone that gambles for a living in my opinion.

I am just an amateur but my father makes his living off "gambling" and thus would be considered a professional gambler i would assume.

i derive all my income from gambling and trading foreign exchange

sports betting i find is relatively easy as i bet just a few games (target 500-1000 a week in season)

i look at total line and half time lines

casino gambling only play single zero roulette (goal 400-10k per trip)

tried online poker and am succesful in a small way (100-1000 a day)

but the majority is via f/x online trading with rebates - with a small amount of capital can make 10-15 k a month average which is consistent

2-4 k in actual trading profits rest from rebates

if that gives you a breakdown

poker has the most variance due to large bets on certain hands that can be beaten by any 2 cards with people playing randomly

You can't each spin is indenpendent. The wheel doesn't have a past. Each spin are the same odds as the 10th,50th or 5000th spin There is no pattern it's completely random

Hope this helps

single zero is easy to beat

its pattern recognition same as trading

the problem you have is thinking you are 2 bet each spin

for example wheels get locked into specific zones or featured parts

if you break the wheel down to

red/black
odd/even
high/low
1st/2nd/3rd 12

and see what the patterns are you can identify the roll to 3-5 numbers

at 35-1 less cost of roll ill take that every day of the week

i would say its safe to say that not everyone can break the wheels down to a "pattern" like i do - but then again not everyone has trained their mind to focus on pattern recognition the way i have either.

next time go and record the numbers and see if you can figure out the pattern specific too each dealer. some are very repetitive

how they try to counteract my bets is to have the dealers wait for me to make my bets - to ensure the pattern remains strong you need a constant pace of the game - if you have ever played roulette day in day out you will know what i mean by this.

If you're managing your money right, and maintaining a certain win rate, you are impervious to the juice.


Also, just because someone gambles full time, does not mean that is their "living".

I know a handful of accountants for a few big name companies, that make almost as much as I do a year, from sports gambling, but, that is not their "living". It's a "living" for me, but, it's just "extra money" for them

:)

i first look at the pattern red or black first 2nd or third twelve

so i say its going to be red second dozen this spin

then i look at the high/low odd or even pattern to narrow it further

like i said dont play every spin but when the patterns lock in you can turn 500-1000 into 5-10 k easily

wud never get down more than 2 k per session allocate 1 k per table

sometimes when they lock into 3rd dozen red even they can spin 5-6 in a row it becomes a duck shoot as most other players bet against the pattern

anyway give it a try cant hurt all the best
