While they may not count in the standings, winners pay like the regular season. In fact, professional bettors account for 50-70% of the money bet on a preseason game. Since the launch of the KrackWins App in 2019, we have gone 40-16-1 on the NFL Preseason, for an absolutely ridiculous 71% win rate. Information is key in preseason games. These games are exhibitions, so coaches obviously approach them that way. They want to avoid injuries to starters and assess their depth chart and cuts. These changes in personnel combined with mostly vanilla play calling produce wild line movement that you would never see in a regular season game. Having good information well before the game kicks off is critical. That info, combined my knowledge of the handicapping markets, translates into a meaningful edge that makes me salivate over these volatile lines. With everyone and their mother is now betting on NFL regular season games, the market is much smaller for the preseason. As such, I do...
Without a doubt, no sports league has grown more in popularity over the last fifteen years than the NBA. Combine that spike in overall interest to the new world of legal sports gambling and you have an explosion of new NBA bettors. The NBA was one of the first sports I bet professionally when I first moved to Las Vegas over twenty years ago. At that time, you’d only find a handful of NBA bettors hanging around the books on a nightly basis. Personally, I have been betting the NBA successfully for over two decades. College and Pro Basketball are staples of building my profit each year and we will begin that climb this week with the start of the 2022-23 NBA Season.

A lot of people dream to become a professional sports bettor and not to punch a clock or have a boss to answer to. 99% of them will fail. Following these simple rules below will help you move in the right direction. #1- Always have an allotted bankroll specifically for sports betting. This is put aside and will be used to build with. #2- NEVER bet more than 3% of your bankroll on any one event. As an example, IF you have a $10,000 bankroll, your biggest wager should be $300. Your bet amount will increase as you bankroll grows. #3- Do a monthly evaluation. Check your bankroll and write out your bad habits that have cost you money. #4- Most of the bets that you make should have an edge. Compare what numbers you are getting to what the closing number is at the sharper books. If you are beating the closing number the majority of the time, then you are on the right track. #5- Never chase or over bet losses...This is probably the #1 reason that most people fail at trying to become a...
