I’m an Irish ex-industry professional with one of the big corps, turned full-time professional gambler. I grew up in Ireland near the Curragh and went to school with some prominent Irish jockeys, and I always had a keen interest in racing. The gambling mostly, but also any sort of statistical analysis on a sport was always something I was keen to explore so I would stick my head into. I was always trying to get better at my punting during college but still wasn’t making it pay. After college, I was starting to turn into a breakeven/slightly winning style of punter but was still learning and devoting a lot of my time to trying to get better. I applied for a job in a racing room of a big corporate bookmaker not long after that. I got the job and met some smart people and could see how winners operated. This was vital in fast-tracking me to a profitable punter and it just grew from there. Eventually, the writing was on the wall that it was starting to cost me money to go to work. A bizarre paradox for most. I decided to give myself 3 months as a “Mock” professional and treat everything as if I had left my job while not actually doing so. In each of my three mock months, I won my salary so there was really no decision to be made in the end. I left that job the guts of ten years ago now, and I have never looked back. I don’t usually tip at the front end, although if I see value anywhere, I will tip it. My edge can be broken down into three main components. My model, my edge, and my opinion. All of which have taken over 10 years to develop and are still developing. I am not a god or any sort of boom merchant; I suffer the variance of losing runs tipping high prices. But giving enough time and a decent sample size, I will certainly win well; there is no doubt about that.
