Default Sports/Horse Betting

Hey guys.

I am now looking into all types of gambling, not just blackjack, and it seems like alot of gamblers are into sports/horse betting.

Is this a legit thing where you can be skilled and make constant money doing it? Any good books to be recommended?

Thanks guys

That's true. You can get an advantage at almost any game in the casinos. Blackjack, poker, sports betting and video poker are probably the most popular choices but Caribbean Stud, Three Card Poker, Roulette, Big 6, Craps, Let It Ride, and even the slots can be beaten.

Here is a link to some great book review that will help you build a library for whatever game you choose:

Thoroughbred, harness, and greyhound race handicapping can give a solid edge to anyone willing to do a bit of work. Professionals tend to stick to the major tracks because of the size of the mutuel pools (they can bet more). If you are just starting out, take a look at greyhound and harness racing, Both are relatively stable, relatively predictable, and offer substantial advantage. Also, easy to get started, and you can learn as fast making $2 bets online as you can betting $200.
Good Luck
