Colin on the Herd said to make a living off sports gambling

[CalmDownSir]

You only need to hit 59%. It's not 65% like some people seem to think. What are people's thoughts about this?

Starting bankroll would be the problem

 

[HuskerFan1]

depending on how much u need to survive and how much bankroll you are working with you can hit 54-55% to make a living...

Both 59% and 65% are wayyyy more than necessary to make big money in sports wagering. Which is a good thing, because they are also nearly unattainable (59% at the top end of VERY selective game selection) over the long run. If you could hit 55% of your plays over the next 2000 bets, you could turn $5000 into over $1 million using proper Kelly Criterion money management.

Colin obviously doesn't have a clue.
