You were experimenting with sports betting and found yourself profitable with your strategy. However, you can’t raise a bigger bankroll to generate larger profits. Then there’s this one guy who believes in you and is willing to lend you money, of course, with interest, almost like a loan shark rate. The question is, would you see this as an opportunity or just a trap?
If i have been profitable with my little bankroll and the strategy is really working for me of course I wouldn't take any kind of offer or loan to keep the bigger profit coming instead I will follow the strategy to a good extent and gather the profit and use it to re-stake if that's so important to me, with this I can beat the uncertainty and unforeseen circumstances that might arise if I had the loan.
Taking loan to gamble will be one big mistake anyone will ever make because it's definitely going to ruin you into debts because one single mistake can ruin everything and you begin to desperately fight to win and repay the loan and it could even lead to addiction.
Gaining with a loan amount is a big red flag. 10 out of 10 problem gamblers said they were affected cause they borrowed money for gambling and failed to repay that amount. This is because they fall into an unpleasant situation when they take a loan, most often they lose seed money cause over time it is impossible to recover your money when you play under pressure, and when you take gambling as your main income source, you must have to play under pressure. On the other hand, debt increases over time, so your main target turned into surviving debt, not winning. So smart wagerer should be betting only a fixed percentage, usually 1-5% per bet & scaling up sustainably based on profits earned, not borrowed capital.
