I think that there is no statistics that shows winning results for the bookmakers because it's an inside information for every bookmaker and bookmaker service provider. But I can tell you this, bookmakers always build in a margin to ensure long-term profit. When there is a fight between two person, the total odd should logically be 4.0 (2.0 for each) but bookmakers make it to look like 1.96 for each (3.92 totally), which means that 0.08 is in their favor. In other words, for example, 8% profit margin means that for every $100, they keep $8. This is how they remain profitable even when individual bettors win bets but you also have to keep in mind that bookmakers constantly change odds to keep things in their favor to minimize risks and increase chance of gaining a profit.

We don't need bookmakers to share their internal stats publicly to know that their businesses get profit for maintaining their operations a long time. If they have very low margin of business profit or only get net loss, their businesses would have been death and their services would have been closed already.

So it is clear fact that casinos need to get profit that partially comes from their users who are gamblers and have degend instinct. That's it, gamblers are greedy, want to bet and they nurture gambling companies with their money inflow in bets that brings part of gambling company income. However it is not responsibility of any casino on how their customers bet with their own gambling funds.

Gamblers must manage their risk and finance well includig gambling capital management and how they bet responsibly or irresponsibly.
