Simply answer: WINNING
Apparently, winning large amounts for any period of time hasn't been a widespread issue at EOG and it surely won't be...it's all by design. 12io4j2w90
The ability to succeed as a long-term winner is virtually nil from an industry that embraces losers while rejecting winners.
When WINNING is NOT an OPTION...what could be more damaging to one's success?

How about hearing about how easy it is to make $ betting tennis and then blindly following a certain posters US Open picks.

Re: Whats the most damaging to your ability to become successful sports bettor?
That's not true. If 1% of all games are fixed, which is a high estimate, than you would figure that half time time the fix would be in favor of you and half the time you would get screwed by the fix, so that stuff evens out. The other 99% of the time its mano y mano, fair and square, even steven and you are either good enough or you are not. The fixes, if there are any, all even out.
The only way fixing can hurt a bettor is if he knows the fix and bets the other side anyway. Other than that, it shouldn't matter.

Have to disagree here! If a game is fixed the line probably wouldnt be the same as if it wasnt.

Re: Whats the most damaging to your ability to become successful sports bettor?
Maybe sniffing out fixed games is a skill and part of the general handicapping process? In order to win you have to sniff out the fix and either skip or bet on the fixed side. not easy to do, but winning in the long run betting sports isn't easy to do either....you gotta know everything.
