Can you hit 60%?

[royalfan]

Obviosly I hit well over 60 percent on my props and off events. As I have said time and time again, this is where the money is at.

I like your use of the term Obviously.

chance about 15% or so. unless you count being able to hit very slow moving lines or slow moving unusual prop wagers things like those I would put chances at 75% or higher.

hitting Percentages at anything is confusing as it depends on the number of plays, I used to hit 70+ in my younger Days when my Bets were very selective. The natural progression from winning is to have more bets and thats when the rot sets in, so it comes down to the best balance. I cannot see anyone hitting 60% with enough volume to cater for a reasonable bank. :drink:

75% chance of hitting 60% when you prop bet?

I think a good handicapper can do it for a year, but it can't be done consistantly over the long haul.

Very much true. Every once in a while you make sense.

The figure doesn't matter since betting limit will obviously stop us from getting beyond 8 figures. Also, I'm sure 60% due to skill is possible over 100 bets a year. Not in a single sport, but I'm sure there are people/teams/models capable of cherry picking at least that many 60% bets across multiple sports.

Fezzik's argument to why 60% records don't exist is nonsense. The reason is because 60% bets are few in number and the majority of the profit of successful bettors is made from 53-56% bets. While 60% looks great it leaves most of the money still on the table.

 

[SALTHEITAL]

Yes

Do you feel there's at least a 50% chance you personally can hit 60% or better over 100 games?

Most certainly. :drink:

 

[NoAnchovies]

Hitting in baseballl you can fail 70% of the time and be considered successful at .300

Why does it seem easier to hit 60% losers than winners?
