how experienced are you ?? you can't be that experienced to be called experienced.
You are Way too young....

Just saying


Been gambling for 13 years. So not the average guy off the street. Not sure what age has to do with it, someone 65 years old could be a rookie if he has never gambled before.

Plus I'm not even saying im experienced, that's irrelevant. I just saw that there was a lot of talk in enfuego's thread about mistakes that experienced gamblers make as well so I thought I would go ahead and just start it.

hmm, thought I saw somewhere you said you are not too long out of College ?? no ?

When did you start Gambling ? at what age ?

* Not pulling a "Chop" on you... just asking

I'm not really that young. I'm 27. I have been gambling since I was 14. First bet I ever made was at Churchill Downs. That night I used my mom's social (with her permission) and joined an online sportsbook. Have been hooked ever since.

This is true Age is not Key to being experienced. That part was a question to you because I knew that your age was somewhere between 24-27

Also betting at the Track for the first at age 14 doesn't mean you have 13 years experienced. I made my first wager at age 5, when I gave my parents my allowance money to bet on a horse because I liked the color of it.
Then, at age 13 was cutting out of School to go to the track with my friends. I don't count that as my experience in Gambling... because back then, I didn't really know the Game as much as I know it now at age 55. Yes, I'm an Old Fuk...

I could understand that you say you have 13 years experience... I just know most guys count their older years

carry on

Used a social to join a online sportsbook ...

maybe not her social, hell it was 13 years ago. Maybe it was just all her information. I just remember I couldn't open one myself because I wasn't 18.

I started sports gambling at 14 as well. But you are right in what you are saying. The past few years of experience have been more valuable the ages 14-21. Either way, who cares lol.

Gotta defend Bovada here. They aren't the best book by any means but I do use them. They aren't your daddy's Bovada. Never thought I'd see the day I defend them but....

Futures pretty competitive, tons of props, props on the fighting sports.
Good dog value on NFL games as well if you happen to like a dog in a big game.

I've never really gotten these guys good, however, I do feel like if I did they wouldn't hesitate to cut someone off. Their props are very good....

You seem to ask a lot of newbie questions for someone who's been gambling for 13 years. Just saying..

I don't think I've been gambling for long enough to comment. But in my experiences, bankroll management.
