How to Win
Successful sports betting. Getting the edge so you can win. That’s what this is about.
My name is Andrew Kasch and I am a successful trader, poker player, sports bettor, and all-around speculator. I have authored the following popular ebooks:

There is a running theme trough all of my writings and that is the formula for successful speculation. In a nutshell, it is this:
1. Identify an edge
2. Risk the optimal amount for your account size or bankroll
3. Repeat often
If you follow that formula you will have no mathematical alternative but to keep increasing your account size over time. However, following the formula does present some formidable challenges.
Identifying an edge is difficult for most people, especially in sports betting. But it’s really not that hard. I will be teaching you how to do that in the posts in this blog. The fact is most sports bettors don’t care about getting the edge; they just want to gamble on their own hunches and sports knowledge. They make the bookies rich year after year with this approach, but don’t seem to be too concerned about it.
Correct position sizing is critical to long-term success. Even when you have a significant edge you can lose a whole bunch of outcomes in a row. This will cause most players to quit, or change their methods (usually back to an approach where the bookie has the edge again). Losses are just part of the cost of doing business and you simply must accept them and not let running bad screw up a good system.
Take every play that has an edge and bet only a small portion of your account - somewhere in the neighborhood of 5%.¬† That’s how it’s done.
I advocate using Tradesports as your betting source. You can get an edge at a regular sportsbook as well, but at Tradesports you will find many more profitable positions to take. it’s just stupid not to use them in my opinion.
Now get out to my blog posts and learn how to get an edge.
