if 90% of sports bettors lose over the long term would it not be profitable to fade peoples systems or plays instead of trying to find the winning combination? Or maybe just fade your own system?

90% of all systems go 50% long term. Most betters are terrible with money management though. They raise their bets after a winning day and lower their bets after losing days. It should be the other way around. You can make consistent money only hitting 50%. And like I said, any system that you use will go 50% long haul.

What type of money management would you suggest assuming a system with a 50% win rate?
We know we need a win rate of 53.8% I believe to break even flat betting.
