    I get what you're saying. Most gamblers only tally up the winnings but don't calculate the losing bets into their overall earnings. Some are good at it so who knows? It wouldn't shock me though.

    I think the fact he is betting 100k for a 86k return that shows that he isnt so much of a gambler and likes to assess risk.

    No...he is still making money and his houses and cars are now paid for. He is also building a successful promotional company.

    Floyd doesn't seem like the kind of guy who will change his lifestyle when he is no longer generating income. If even a small percentage of the IRS and repo rumors are true (where there's smoke...) right now, it is highly likely he will have financial trouble when he can no longer generate a $20 million payday.

    The IRS broke Al Capone, they can take down Mayweather.

    Isn't he betting $100k and winning $86k ON TOP? Effectively an 86% return?

    Nobody bets to lose 14% on a winning and/or favourite odd......
     
  13. its called "vig" or juice.....

    if hes betting 100k on say, ohio university -4 for the first half, it could be priced at -115 or -110 depending on the book.....every gambler has to pay juice....

    floyd has enough money not to get "barreled in" like alot of gamblers....he has a huge bankroll.....the guy could lose 30 100k bets in a row and still be fine....

    Agreed. What an absolute bell end that **** was. Simple yes or no opinion and he comes out with some gay dick head post like that when he could have just ignored the thread if it butt hurt him.

    Strange reply from a strange bloke. Sounded just like something a bell end teacher at high school would have said.
