Is the foundation of his fortune based on winning money from gambling?
Yes.

Is his entire total net worth only made up of money from successful betting?
Only a complete half-wit would think that.

Good morning aceform.

For info - it's possible to be a successful gambler and also be successful in other aspects of your life.

A contrarian is a person who habitually takes an opposing or different position from the majority opinion. This can involve going against the grain, challenging consensus, and rejecting popular beliefs, sometimes for the sake of being different or to provoke thought. Contrarian behaviour can range from taking a different perspective in a debate to making investment decisions against the majority.

Characteristics of a contrarian person:

Challenges consensus: They are quick to question popular opinions and are not afraid to go against the crowd.
Disdain for conformity: They often resist fitting into social expectations and can be motivated by a desire for uniqueness.
Independent thinking: They may reason independently and formulate their own positions, resisting pressure to conform.

Potential upsides: A contrarian mindset can be valuable. For example, it can lead to the discovery of new solutions and can encourage others to look at a problem from a different angle.

sheep
/ʃiːp/
noun
1. a domesticated ruminant mammal with a thick woolly coat and (typically only in the male) curving horns. It is kept in flocks for its wool or meat, and is proverbial for its tendency to follow others in the flock.

2. used with reference to people who are too easily influenced or led.

Betting (successfully), if I had to sum it up in one word - is for contrarians.

You need to look at things differently or take a different approach to other people. When they're looking to pile-in, it's quite possibly the time to be getting out and when they're looking to get out, it could be an opportunity to pile-in. Sometimes it's very counter-intuitive, which people generally find difficult.

In contrast, you are a classic sheep. Looking at every event in exactly the same way as everybody else, seeing the most likely outcome - and convincing yourself it's a good bet or "the value", regardless of the price.

Your hilarious dalliance with AOHW/AOAW (correct scores) on the football, although catastrophic, at least exemplified a very simplistic/feeble attempt to develop yourself a little bit as a gambler, by trying something new.

You recognised that looking for "certainties" couldn't possibly pay long term - but wrongly thought you could turn it around, if you could just find a way of bumping up the price on those same "certainties". Cry

Development phase dallied with (very briefly) - and quickly abandoned, you returned (yet again) to the route taken by most hopeless addicts and long-term losers; Draw a line under the past and go back to basics with a new bank and think somehow this time, doing what you've always done will suddenly be different and successful.

Fair play if you were still 18 (it's how most people start out) - but you've been at it for 48 years ffs!

Good luck in 2026 Acey - I've got a feeling it will be your year! Crazy

The Sunday Times Rich list who estimate Mr Bloom is worth £721 million mainly from 'gambling'.

Wikipedia listing him as worth $1.38 billion from mainly gambling

The BBC lists his wealth from gambling at over £700 million

Look at all the sums mentioned how much the syndicate were mentioned winning in the current George Cottrell.

However as you seem to think they are all wrong maybe you could enlighten us all as to where the money came from ?

Or do you think he does not actually own Brighton Football club and is in fact on Income Support

Football club and other properties you could make a few quid,but a billion or anything close is pie in the sky imv….

I know for a fact that Bloom makes plenty and the actual figures are irrelevant as he would never disclose them.
Why does a "two bobber" like you concern yourself with his business,Aceform?
By:

Why don't you contact Tony Bloom through his star lizard site and offer your services in his defence
should this matter ever reach the courts.

Obviously you have cast iron facts and figures that never made that much money from gambling and that he was 'left a few quid' and that Brighton and Hove Albion football club was just'handed the club' to him.


Sure you could be the star witness
