You have control over you play and not, you can't control variance. Same in sports betting, you can control what you bet, you can't control the result as a poker game.

I'll have to go with poker, because you have at least some control of the game.

For me it's sports betting.

Since I have been keeping records (last twelve years), I have only had one year with a loss. I may create a new thread in the sports section, detailing the lengths I take to be successful.

I think that poker is better because the prize funds in tournaments are very large, and on bets you can earn only on the mistakes of bookmakers.

Well, if you are well versed in sports and you know how and what kind of sports to bet to win and you have already won good money on betting, then I think that you can continue to bet on sports and win on it, but if you play poker very well to win and get good results then you can play poker and devote more time to the game and try to win more money!

In sports betting your only weapon is the information that you have for the teams before the game starts. If you are seriously into sports betting you can have some serious information like complex statistics about every team and player, the way they play and how it relates to their opponent style and so on. The key though is that you can only guess the end result based on the information that you have and then watch the game and see what is going on. It is like playing poker only preflop. For me poker gives you much more freedom to turn even bad cards on the table in your favor if you know what you are doing.

Amazing perception, but you can do live betting, does it replace turn and river?

Hi.
For me, more profitable in the financial plan is poker.
I pretty often win money in poker tournaments, but then I lose everything at sports betting. Usually, sports bets bring me only losses.
Good luck.

Previously, I often make sports bets.
But after analyzing my sports bets within one years, I realized that I almost did not earn anything but only lost time. After this I stopped betting. During the last two years, I play poker only and my financial results have improved.

Hello.
I rarely do sports betting.
Occasionally, I and my friends watch a football match, and then we can, for the sake of curiosity, make bets. But overall, I think poker is more promising in terms of earning revenue than sports betting.

Hi.
For the past few years, I have been betting on tennis. This allows me to get a small profit monthly, about $ 150-200. But unfortunately, poker for now is unprofitable for me. I spend about $ 20-30 a month on poker. I hope that in the near future I will be able to improve my game and start earning profit.

Hey.
I staked on sports, mainly tennis and volleyball, less often football and hockey. I will not say that I constantly received a good profit, about 300-400 dollars in profit per month. On betting, you must constantly monitor all events, to follow the news, to see the game of many athletes, to monitor their physical condition and current injuries.

If you miss a few months, you need to recover for a few months or a year.
If you play poker and have reached a certain level that will allow you to make a profit at a distance, you will not lose your qualifications. Recovery will not take more than 2 weeks.
At the moment, my choice is poker.
