what kind of take do cappers make in a week to qualify them as "good"?

herts9 · Dec 14, 2010

whether you do just NFL or just NCAAB or if you do a combo of all 4 sports and NCAA-B/F, what kind of return justifies you as "successful"?

even though i consider NOT LOSING for the week, a plus...or even winning a little a good job, what constitutes a capper being better than the average recreational gambler?

say you started with a $1000 BR. after a week, you were up $150. is a 15% increase 'good' taking into account only playing with 20% of your BR at a time?

probably been brought up before,...just curious to see what you guys think.

Anyone who makes a profit over a year's period, is good.

do not take this the wrong way but you dont have a clue..

there is no one in the world that makes 15% per week in this business..... no one..... sure there are times you can but no way anyone can average anything close to that.

it was almost insane to say that..

and please dont be offended by that...

if you can return 10% per month, your great... all you need to do is get a $50,000 bankroll, make your 5k per month, start yourself a tout service and your set...

And if they earn more than they spend they're rich

no shit? 15% was an arbitrary number. I wanted somebody to advise me of an accepted ROI to where somebody is widely considered successful. I came here for advice so don't be a dick.

but no offense

well your number was insane..

10% a month and you can retire, so get at it...

A week is irrelevant

It's the long haul that counts.....

so 10% makes you the valedictorian? okay thanks..that's all I was after

I understand that anybody can have a perfect week,...but at some point the profit trends are hard to ignore

No, it makes you $300 000 after 10 years if you start with $1 000

But if anyone can make that much, why are they only investing $1 000? Start with $5 000 and it's $1.5 million within five years assuming you can still get a bet down

Hit 55% or more a year over 3 years and 100 plays a year at -110 is good.

Going 1-0 for the week or year means nothing ;

When their net profit exceeds their expected growth.

what kind of take do cappers make in a week to qualify them as "good"?
