How this Polymarket trader made $106K+ in 1 month
Low win rate.
Huge profits.
This isn't luck — it's probability.
1/ Let's break down how trader sb911 did it 🧵
2/ In the past month, sb911 made over $100,000 on Polymarket.
But here’s the surprising part:
Total predictions: 294
Winning predictions: 75
Win rate: 25.51%
So how does someone lose ~75% of the time and still win big?
3/ Most of his trades focus on one repeating question:
"Will Elon Musk post X–Y tweets this week?"
This isn’t random speculation.
Elon’s tweeting behavior is:
Frequent
Consistent
Statistically stable over short time windows
That makes it measurable.
4/ Here’s the key insight 👇
Polymarket treats each tweet range as a separate market:
200–219
220–239
240–259
260–279
…
But in reality, these ranges form one continuous probability distribution.
5/ sb911 doesn’t try to predict the exact number.
Instead, he covers multiple adjacent ranges at once.
He's not asking:
"Which range will hit?"
He’s asking:
"Can I cover most realistic outcomes at the right price?"
6/ Now look at how he enters.
Many winning positions were bought at:
1¢
3¢
5¢
10¢
If correct, each share settles at 100¢.
That's asymmetric payoff:
Small, capped losses
Massive upside when one range hits
7/ Yes — most positions go to zero.
You’ll see long lists of –100% trades.
That’s not a mistake.
It’s the design.
This strategy accepts frequent small losses in exchange for rare but explosive wins.
8/ One example says it all:
Cost: ~$1,100
Payout: ~$79,000
ROI: 6,600%+
A single win like this can cover dozens of failed positions.
This is how a 25% win rate becomes highly profitable.
9/ sb911 isn’t gambling.
He’s trading expected value:
Repeating events
Clear resolution rules
Mispriced probability ranges
He’s not predicting outcomes —
he’s trading probability distributions.
That’s the real edge.
