> The few friends (sharps) that I had that were able to earn a profit over a large enough sample were all eventually backed off by the major sports betting sites. One site backed off a large long term winner in order to "protect the player against creating a compulsive habit or addiction". It's literally a racket. You can't win long term. You can only lose.

That's incredible, so these sites track gamblers and figure out which ones actually know what they are doing and then refuse their bets?

Oh 100%. Some of them have banned their accounts while others cap them to a $1 max bet. It’s insane.
