Semi retired thanks to my boom years 2000-2019. Since the scamdemic I now only arb on a couple of sports that I know better than the line makers and only do it for fun as my main income is from what I made 2000-2019

the scamdemic was a major turning point for smart betting, changing the landscape directly and indirectly in many ways. in 100 years the great scholars of the generation will recognise it as the end of an era

No day job, just a full time gambler who never worked in life thanks to bwin and unibet and sportingbet 16 years ago, I started as a bonus hunter and that bookies gave me nice digits a year back then, when bonus was dried from 100€ and 50€ per account to 10€ lol, I have tried trading horses, big thank you to that bookies specially bwin, former betandwin for give me the freedom and bankroll reserves to learn free how trading works, emotional control and many losses for months until I became a real pro.
Between trading, arbing, I exploited many times bookmakers and even today if I need to hurt the bookies I know how to do it, they can put minimim wagers, minimum odds, limits, I just have no patience for such low income.

I work with AI in a media company. Right now I am taking a break from betting, as the restrictive rules in Denmark make it almost impossible to open new accounts. But I'll be back strongly sooner or later.
