Are their big barriers to entry to become a booky ? One would assume it would be quite attractive to become one if he enjoys gambling. One gets to participate

Are their big barriers to entry to become a booky ?
One would assume it would be quite attractive to become one if he enjoys gambling. One gets to participate in the action and make money no matter which horse wins -- as long as they manage the edge right.
- gkilmain 1y agoThe biggest barrier is finding customers.
- nssnsjsjsjs 1y agoDo you mean the person at the tracks taking odds or a business doing online bookmaking. Being a bookie would be fun if you like maths, are street smart, somewhat not highly ethical but you are disciplined and can control your emotions. Similar to poker I guess. And are knowledgeable about the sport with respect to odds not trivia. I doubt a typical gambler would enjoy it. Does a "foodie" love working in a lab testing flour samples?
- srean 1y agoI stand corrected.
- nssnsjsjsjs 1y ago:) thanks. Sorry hope it didn't come across argumentative.
- srean 1y agoHuh! Not at all.
