I am sure they have skills to gamble because they can analyze each team who will show. They can gather so much information from many sources, which can help them get the right teams. Yes, I believe that some of them can become successful in sports betting because they have all the things needed to win the money.
Of course, with skills you can be consistent and that would be your tool to be a successful gambler.
This gambling success is not for everyone, but only few of the people, so you should know if you have the skills before you claim you have and started risking big money like these successful gambler are doing, key also which is important is being realistic all the time, accept your defeat and continue to learn.
But to have skills, we need to learn more to gather the information, and the experience will come with analyzing the game. Only a few people can collect the right information because they have sources to help them analyze the game. But I think they will not claim that they are a high-skills in that game because sometimes, they will hide their skills from other people.
I agree that we should consistent in gambling as you say because that will give us more chances to win, and we can also have an opportunity to be a professional gambler in the future. But we need to be careful because gambling still dangerous.
Risky.. maybe... well, that's it, there's a risk in gambling, but you know what you should do? just manage the risk, and like I said you should be realistic so you will do the right approach to be successful.
Yes, we know what we should do, but most gamblers, especially a new gambler, don't know what they need to do. And they still play gambling without learning anything, so that can not help them survive in gambling, but they only lose their money in any second. The new gamblers need to learn more if they want to be a pro bettor.
