Higher win percentage ALWAYS trumps amount of units won assuming you're flat betting. Take for example two bettors, bettor A and bettor B.
-Bettor A flat bets and comes out 6 wins and 4 losses out of 10 bets. Makes a total of roughly 2 units (assuming no juice). 60% win rate, + 2 units
-Bettor B DOESN'T flat bet and varies his/her betting amounts. So, bettor B can go 1 win and 9 losses but go extra large on a bet, which makes up for all the other losses and resulted in a large increase of units to their bankroll. 10% win rate, + whatever many units
Get the point?
A while back, there was a poster (I'm not going to name who that username's was) who had a "troll" comment on their post about this exact principle. The troll had a point though. The main poster had a large number of positive units for that season but an "ok" win percentage (mid 50%'s which is still amazing) whereas there were other cappers who had a higher win percentage but FLAT bet and had made less units for that season.
For me, I'd take winning percentage all day. Then again, only realistic win percentages. When somebody is touting anything higher than a high 50's )55-59%) win percentage, I'm very, VERY skeptical...
Also, the win rate to be considered a "professional" is winning at a rate of 52.38%
BOL and hopefully this answered your question...

If your system can produce those numbers, I think what really matters here is the size of your bankroll, kid! If you can produce +40 to +48 units (Say in a years worth of games), that can possibly mean: $400 to $480 on $10 per unit, $4,000 to $4,800 on $100 per unit, $40,000 $48,000 on $1,000 per unit or $400,000 $480,000 on $10,000 per unit, ect!
