That is crazy and to think a few of them probably hit a big parlay or a big under dog and aren't really ahead because of lots of good wins

13% showing profit but only 245/40,000 being over €1,000 numbers stated in article doesn’t seem to be congruent. The numbers would seem to fit together better if it was 245/4,000 or 2450/40,000 no? Then again what in the sam hell is a € is it a bitcoin? I only understand freedom units.

245 of 40,000.

And only 39755 of those people are allowed to make Sports bets there anymore.

Wellll.... average total bet per bettor.... $1500..... average bet size less than $8...... And we are supposed to be surprised that only 245 are up over $1000?

13% of bettors winning is much higher than I would have guessed and it is reason for optimism if a person is new to the game

Yeah that doesn’t really sound much different than poker. Definitely a higher percentage than table games or machines.
