Sports Betting

then there was the bookie who had mirror accounts at every commodity firm in Indiana, I don't know if he worked any other states.

A lot of trades each month, but if you didn't bet with him, he closed his account and moved on.
 
I do both and I am constantly surprised at the similarities. The primary aspect that should remain constant is the money management. Bet size, drawdowns, risk, equity curves are all the same.

There's a solid money management piece that I have used as a reference from time to time from Alpha Sports.

Honestly though, the only difference is that one cannot hold a position in sports betting, you get closed out at the end of each day.

Manage risk
Manage risk
Manage risk.

I have been fairly consistany throughout the years. But, the NBA and NCAA hoops are the only things I am consistant in. Probably because there is a lot less randomness compared to other sports. If you can make a decent return in the NFL year over year then that is impressive.

You have to be a 24/7 expert to beat hoops...
You must have played or coached the game at a high level...
You must have quality inside information...
Any sort of quantitative or technical approach is useless...
It will have you betting against the wise guys every day.
