I guess that will not be too important for me as I prefer to get wins from sports betting. Whether that is small odds or two big odds, if that can give me the win, I will be happy. I will be more concerned with how much money I will use to place the bet so that it will not make me feel too sad if I lose. But I do not like to place too many bet amounts as that can make funds overused and make me unable to use the funds to place the other bet that I have almost accurate information.

I rarely bet on soccer matches and rather do it not for the opportunity to make a profit, but for the sake of sports interest. I've lost more than once betting on my country's national team in international competitions, but I got upset not so much for the money lost as for the team itself.

It is a better option for me to pick one or two big odds and place a bet on them with a substantial amount rather than pick multiple small odds and gamble with a small amount.

My reason is because i feel like i should be able to predict the outcome of two or three fixtures correctly and get something good rather than trying to get the outcome of multiple games at a go. It is true that sometimes people win, but the chances are Slimer and sometimes a stroke of luck.
When it comes in gambling we cant guarantee the price or whether we will win or lose no matter how we calculate the odds . It's more of pur luck and how we take the risk. Small odds didn't hurt much as long as we learn to manage every bets we do or we only risk the amount we can lose.

Some calculation is just made for fun purposes for other so that they can focus on their games but as you said this will never give any guarantee especially if we are in luck based games, But for using small odds for sure we can enjoy the game and we can prolong our game time since the risk is not high and we cannot really feel our losses also we can easily recover back since we have so many chances to place on.

One or two big odds are far better! It's easier to find one or two big odds, especially if you follow the sport you are betting on and you have some knowledge about the teams! Focusing on what you know, plus some extra research before the game can help you in making a profit in the long run!
Accumulating small odds looks simple and easy, but when you try it (like many of us did) you will realize that every time some favorites will disappoint!

Im with betting on one or two big odds rather than on going with accumulating one. Most bets would be directly be on straight winner and wont tend to go for another line like time and scores.

but i do able to experience on betting with those but i dont feel up the thrill or interest because i do much prefer on straight wins as long the odds were considerable or worth the risk.
This is a nice idea, but with this I still like going for 3 matches max accumulated bet, but going for one big odd with just one match is good to me too. I like staking total 1.5 and 2.5 total goals more than straight win, but I stake straight win most especially during champions league while over 1.5 do come during group stage very often.

Talking about soccer betting, of course in general football betting has many types of bets provided on online gambling sites such as: accurate scores, final results, handicaps and accumulators etc.
These are examples regarded as the big odds, you are right while handicap may or may not come with big odds including each odds in accumulated bet.

and losing and consider gambling bets as a side income, Does not involve the hard earned money you are looking for for other needs to be used for betting/gambling.
I do not even consider it as an income, I consider it as money to use for more fun.

I have managed to lose even with odds like 1.03-1.10. For me, the difference between small and big odds is that you can just gambler longer with your budget. All in all this is about fun and you will lose anyway.

But, I would choose to place "two big odds" instead of bunch of small odds, because with small odds I will worry for the result the same as with the big odds. That is why for me it is easy to get nervous 2 times, instead of 10.

After all your experiences about gambling on football matches, which one has been coming with the best result? Is it accumulating small odds? Or betting on one or two big odds?

For me small and big odds bets in soccer betting are the same, basically betting/gambling, the point of which is: consistent and document every bet you make, it can help you increase your overall betting percentage both winning and losing and consider gambling bets as a side income, Does not involve the hard earned money you are looking for for other needs to be used for betting/gambling.

Correct score is the least market i'd go for, as long as the odds aren't one sided i'll always take the 1x2 market since i've had more success with it, if the odds are really that bad then i'll move on with asian totals. It's rare to see sportsbooks offer time interval markets and i'd avoid them since I don't have that much information when it comes to timed goal conversions.

Depends on how small if a decimal odds of 1.4 is small then i'd take it as I was able to run with a similar strategy before. I rarely take big odds since i've been burned several times but i'm willing to take risks from time to time though.

Go big or go home is probably my best pick here. Even without considering that it's for fun, I'd still go for big odds instead of small odds. It's just, well, rather irritating at some point whenever you take a look at your winnings. Plus, it beats the experience of seeing something in game that breaks the expectations of most people, but it didn't for yours. You expected it. It may be just some random guess or whatnot, but the thrill of suddenly knowing that what you bet on happened? That's what I'm in it for gambling.

I would rather go for one or two long shots. That's how most insane parlays actually work.

Reason being is that usually, the EV on bets that have lower risk are actually lower. If you roll them up and accumulate them over 10 bets, then your chances of profit actually decline much greater than if you just have 1 bet of the same odds as the parlay you would have otherwise formed.

But at the end of the day just see what you enjoy more - is it the thrill of seeing your bet legs getting ticked off, or just waiting for one event?

In gambling i do not like accumulating small odds because there are a lot of cases where you can lose them

This is the reason I bet for very big odds. I play big odds game and single so that if I lose, I won't have regret that it was the accumulated game that made me lose the game. Making additional games to add to the ones you have already settled in your mind to stake on is risky, sometimes we lose our bet because we accumulate but playing few games is good, you can just add more money to boost the potential win.

I say in sports few big odds are a better perspective than accumulated small odds, especially when talking about tournaments. Predicting the outcome is difficult and making many bets with even small odds is, therefore, risky. At best, it will make you break even, at worst - more losses than wins. However, if you follow the games closely and a certain tendency can be seen, it’s better to take that chance, make one risky bet and grab the prize.

Depending on the game and how much do you know about it, the strategy may be any of those two. If it is a pure chance game, odd always in favour of the house etc.. I think you will get more enjoyment with a distribution of small bets. If you are betting on a skills game, such as poker, you would need to take a middle position - not too many bets, not too few. You would concentrate on those that are better in odds, while doing minor bets. Lastly, on those that are games of prediction that involve some skill, it would be better to concentrate a a few good odds. and still be fun as the games tend to last.

^ I tried them all, but it seems I like this betting of big odds, there is a low chance of winning in the small accumulate small odds and most likely you will lose. I will better bet for a single sporting event and divide your betting budget into several individual bets and carefully choose high odds, at this way, it feels better and it should be you place a small amount that enough to place individual wagers so that you can view the possible high risk on it. Nevertheless, we have different perceptions of betting and it depends on our budget.

In gambling i do not like accumulating small odds because there are a lot of cases where you can lose them so accumulating many in a combined bet will bring more risks i prefer an odd between 1.5 and 2 and if i am a little more sure about a bet i could go for a much higher odd and i do not like gambling on correct scores they are really difficult to predict i won few but not much i prefer betting on over in football games and on sets in tennis.
I like your idea, I have even taken 1.06 odds before when I took Spain to win one small European country in Under19 qualifier som years ago, I lost it when the match went draw. I remembered a time I went for 1.02 odds before which was the lowest odd have ever taken and lost before. While I have taken 2.04 odds before and I won it. Accumulating small odds can be risky, the more the accumulation the more is the chance of losing the bet.

Not good betting for sport or e-sport.

But most of the time, just betting on "winner" for someone who doesn't really know about the statistic team or every player performance. And, I guess everyone doesn't need to care a lot as long maybe the odds are not under 1.2 the important we have a good chance win and win small money ~XD

For this year may be the experience that made me the luckiest bet was when the EURO cup match in the Final. At least it's big enough that I got. Then for the weekend I still have a small gambling routine in order to relieve fatigue from the work that has piled up quite a bit.
That's right, gambling is one alternative to relieve stress. So I don't think of it as an addiction. I enjoy the game of not always being a winner. For me, Slot machines remain an option.

I personally would just pick the big odds carefully rather than risk betting on an accumulator even with guaranteed odds. You'll never know if one leg of the accumulator would fuck up your whole bet. Plus, it reduces your anxiety and the games that you need to watch in order to monitor the status of the bet. Less time for you to spend, more things you can do on that time as well.

Single bets are still, IMO and my own experience, better than doing accumulators. You need to have games that are 100% winnable before betting on accumulators with low odds because that small percentage can turn against you.
