60%
For those of you that don't know, 60% is the winning percentage that one must obtain to make money gambling. The reason it's not 51% is because of the juice/vig one must pay to lay a bet. Now I have read that 60% is a bit overzealous and the sharps would agree that anywhere above 53% percent is respectable. That's all fine and good but I'm not looking for respectable...I want the Mecca. Hey we all need goals in life.
So here is what we are going to do. I've been betting with a free sports gambling site called freesportsbet.com for quite a while and below are my stats as of this posting:
| All Sports | Wins | Losses | Push | Percentage | Won/Loss | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Best Streak | 136 | 76 | 4 | 64.0% | $34.52 | 13575 |
| Today | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0% | $0.00 | n/a |
| Yesterday | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0% | $0.00 | n/a |
| Last Week | 3 | 3 | 0 | 50.0% | -$0.46 | 7252 |
| Last Month | 8 | 13 | 0 | 38.1% | -$9.57 | 22967 |
| Last 90 Days | 11 | 15 | 0 | 42.3% | -$9.13 | 27425 |
| Last Year | 367 | 333 | 14 | 52.4% | -$14.68 | 73629 |
| Lifetime | 1169 | 962 | 50 | 54.9% | -$54.36 | 191737 |
As you can see I've logged just over 2000 bets with a lifetime percentage of 54.9%. Respectable yes but I've lost money. Why you ask? Stay tuned and we will explore that very question and many more.
If you take a closer look at these stats you can see that my current percentages are a joke. Last week, last month, and the last 90 days have been brutal. I vow to change this!
Each post I will start with my record and a review of the past bets, then I'll look into the crystal 8-ball and post my predictions.
Come follow me on the pursuit to 60%
