Default beginner asks me

This happens to me many a times when a non-gambler or a beginner asks me,"What percentage of bets do professional bettors win?" There's always an awkward pause to me for this question?can you help me to find answer for this question?

NO not at all,it's just not true to belive that always professional bettor wins. Some of the sites of casino also can help you to find the probability of winning professional bettors .I think this is due to the fact is, the difference between the percentage of bets won by successful sports bettors and the percentage of bets won by chronic losers is relatively very small.

It seems crazy sometimes but there is a simple explanation: If a bettor has five bets on a given day, risking $110 to win $100 on each bet, and wins three of them, that's a great winning ratio of 60% and a net profit for the day of 80 dollars. (The bettor wins $300 and loses 220 dollars.) If another bettor has fourteen bets on that same day, risking $110 to win $100 on each one, and wins eight of them, that's a much poorer winning percentage of only 57%, - but almost twice as much profit for the day of 140 dollars.(The bettor wins $800 and loses 660 dollars.)
