WELCOME TO DANNY WINNERS BLOG

Once again we return to our  So You Want My Job  series, in which we interview men who are employed in desirable man jobs and ask them about the reality of their work and for advice on how men can live their dream. Today we feature a singularly interesting and unique job, that of the professional gambler. Many a man has gambled in his day, whether with real money or cookies. But Christatos Aristad was able to parlay his talents in gambling into a real profession, a lucrative one at that. While some may see professional gamblers as a bit shady, Mr. Aristad is of an older school of gambler, and is the consummate gentleman. Recently retired, he’ll be penning a series of articles for AoM on the basics and etiquette of a variety of games. 1. Tell us a little about yourself (Where are you from? How old are you? Where did you go to school? Describe your job and how long you’ve been at it, ect). My name is Christatos Aristad. I was born in London, and I am 52 years old. I wen...

I do not consider myself a gambler and I am not a big sports fan. I’d rather be playing sports than watching someone else play. When it comes to sports betting I am simply an investor. I learned early in life that (i) the superior team usually wins the game and (ii) the linemaker is very good at setting the number. These are key to becoming involved in this business, and it’s proof that the outcomes of games, as a whole, are not random. Unlike craps or roulette or slot machines or other casino games, the odds with sports betting are arbitrary. I also learned that the linemaker is not predicting which team will win (and by how much); rather, he is actually predicting which team the general public thinks will win, and by how much. The linemaker's job is not to predict the final score of a game, but to make sure there is an acceptable amount of action on both sides of the bet…to split public opinion.

The first four months of the year I paid substantial premiums for my oldest daughter, the next four months for my youngest daughter and the next four months for my oldest son, with a lump sum at the end of the year, paying the premium for my youngest son. I   made those payme...

Winning percentages of today’s professional-level sports bettors are not what most people believe them to be. Many people believe professional-level sports bettors win 75% or more of their bets. It's understandable that people think that, but it's just not true. There's always an awkward pause when a non-gambler or a beginner asks, "What percentage of bets do you win?"   It's a less-than-simple question to answer because it can't be answered simply. That, of course, sounds like a cop-out, but the answer to that question really does demand an explanation.

  Correct money management is easy to explain. It is almost impossible to adhere to. There have been about as many 'systems' for varying the bet size as there are systems to beat the craps table. None of them work and all of them do harm by giving false expectations. Double-up systems, star betting, the Kelly Criterion, etc. all have the same thing in common. They adversely affect the cash flow and they raise the breakeven percentage that must be accomplished. “There have been about as many 'systems' for varying the bet size as there are systems to beat the craps table. None of them work and all of them do harm by giving false expectations.” Any time you vary your bet size by the slightest amount, you increase the breakeven percentage of 52.38. If you refigure your percentage after each bet, your breakeven jumps to over 55%. If you have 1 star and 5 star bets or bet twice as much on some plays, you s...

  Everyone who is into sports betting, is aiming to make money in the end. The amount of money they are going to make depends on the number of bets , the money they are risking per bet and their edge . Edge is hard to be found in the beginning and can be more accurately calculated later on while betting. Yet, the gambler shouldn’t risk real money right from the start, since edge can be calculated by paper-betting; that is tracking their betting results on paper or in a spreadsheet. Finally, these 3 factors will determine just how much money they are going to make in sports betting . Sports bettors often discuss about the possible long term profitability in sports betting and the prospect of living off sports betting. If you yourself are wondering of the profit you can achieve in sports betting, all you have to do is a couple of simple calculations.
