Becoming a pro player. It is really tough but there are many who are actually living like a pro. I can confirm two names among our forums: one is much known Mr.J(Ken) and another is Tomla01 (both are from USA). They play regularly and with nice bankroll and both are successful in fetching money out of gambling. There are many which I don't know personally but they play regularly online and some in real casinos.
              I can't say that I am a pro player although I almost play daily. I am basically a researcher. I do not have easy access to land based casinos (the nearest one is 1500 Km away) but I make casino trips about 4-5 times in a year. In my opinion, to become a pro, you need these things:
1. Nice bankroll that you are ready to lose. Those who has financial constraints should forget gambling as a pro.
2.Clear strategies regarding what to play, how to play, when to stop
3. Spare time and no job or family burdens  like small kids etc.
4. Cool attitude and calm nature. Those who get excited by losses or wins, normally lose bankroll.
5. An open mind to study, analyse and test new and old concepts and tricks.


          If you lack any of these traits, forget about becoming a pro gambler.

That seems like a pretty good summary.  :thumbsup:

Well my humble opinion is that all things you asked and debated here should be answered at the end of your homework notebook, after you have thoroughly and conscientiously learned "curriculum" and done your homework.

Common sense has become so rare it should be classified as a superpower.

Marshall, the name says it all. You have a need to police posts, particularly mine.

Should I surrender any weapons as I enter city limits?, because this suppose to be a friendly place. It's kind of obvious that you hold a particular grudge against me and others who speak their minds. Now that's not friendly. I do not wish to ruffle anyone's feathers. I do though want roulette players to engage in healthy discussions about become a full time pro.

Albalaba contributed a great post.

No, he's just good at spotting posers. He's been
around these boards for years, never assume you
know who you're talking to.

I would think there should be a valid "definition" of what a "Professional" player is before attempting to determine who is and who isn't one!

If you define a Pro as one who make their living, literally, from the game, that's one thing.

If you define a Pro as one who plays "correctly" and with reason and logic, producing a decent rate of return for the game being played, on a consistent basis, then that's another thing.

We may have several of the latter here on this board, but I'm thinking we have NONE of the former.

I think I would be safe in stating that less than 1/2 of 1% of this board makes a living playing roulette.  The rest of us are merely recreational players who use the game to supplement our normal incomes.  We may be serious recreational players and very professional in our approach, but in the end, we are still hobbyists at these games as our normal daily expenses are generally paid by another income source.

I'm not saying that there aren't people here who bring in a lot of money from the casinos, but using the true definition of the word, they are not professional roulette players but merely roulette players who use a professional approach to the game.

Posers - what do you mean?

TC

I believe that Mr. Bell has demonstrated clearly the duplicates nature of one curious individual. So what is it. What do we have, a wise guy come slithering as some neophite crawler. Or perhaps we have a writer, with a quest for his fifteen minutes. Perhaps he is a psychiatrist, here at the request of a brother or sister.

That moniker, The Crow, that's about as obvious as a head banger clad in spandex.

poser - a person who pretends to be someone or something he is not

The Crow

By that definition, I am not a poser.

I am a professional gambler. I am a professional roulette player. Yes, I am an advantage player, not the best, but hard to beat.

Doing this? Its what you said you played om Feb 27th:

"I don't believe in past numbers. So I take a picture of a wheel, cross out 12 numbers randomly, divide the rest of the numbers into two groups of twelve with the zero in one which makes is 13. When a numbers comes in one of the groups, I bet the other group, one unit per number. I use a progression of 1, 2, 5, 7, 9 - stop loss. Crazy, but it works for me."

I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt this does not
work long term, certainly it wouldn't work for a pro roulette
player. There's no bet selection here, its just random against
random with a progression.

And its one of the most successful way of playing

Well if 2sCat is doing it, then it must be good.
