I decided to find out more about the opinion of forum users about their advantages in gambling. Everyone knows that in sports betting it is not enough to predict the outcome correctly. It is equally important, and perhaps even more important, to do it more accurately than the bookmaker. This is the disadvantage of sports betting: we must be more successful than the bookmaker in predicting the results of a sports match. Simply put, we must be smarter than the bookmaker. But is this possible?
I know that a huge number of players refuse to make a forecast of the results of a sports match, refuse to engage in analysis. They believe that sports betting is created for entertainment and place bets more or less randomly.
However, if we still treat sports betting as a serious activity (that is, we do it not only for entertainment), then I would like to ask you this question:

What do you think is your advantage over the bookmaker?
And in general, do you have an advantage over the bookmaker?
Is it even possible to have an advantage over the bookmaker?
Anyone who have not found his edge over the bookmakers will continue to struggling just like I did at some point in my gambling until I did a lot of adjustments in my gambling which I will try to explain a little of while hoping anyone who wishes to implement then should first test it if it works. The steps I followed are as follows:
  • Divide my gambling into business and leisure by this, 80% of my capital will be reserved for business bets which are high probability bets whole 20% is reserved for leisure in which the risk is higher as well as target win.
  • I decided to chose just few selected teams in selected leagues, play them each and every other week. For instance, Real Madrid, ManchesterCity, PSG, BayernMunic and Malmo which I play direct wins one ticket, over 2.5 another ticket and over 3.5 another ticket. This is my business bet which I target 3 to 5 odds and a win rate of 60%
  • I have a fixed gambling budget per day, per week and per month, as soon as it is exhausted, I take a break.
  • When I have heavy winning or I encounter series of loses, I take a break to protect my winning or preserve my capital because luck still play a part in gambling despite the skill

My method may not be 100% perfect as there are still room for improvement but it has helped me become more disci0lined and also increase my win rate as well as winning preservation. In other words, it has made my gambling become more systematic and measurable.

the only advantages that players can use are specific information that is not yet public (you know someone or you are attending an event live).
you can have advantages because you know a sport better than them, but unless you are a former professional, they basically know more than you. Roll Eyes
you can think that an odd is "wrong" on their part and take advantage of it. basically you are "alone" against a group of professionals.
aside from some rare cases (or just different opinions) it is really unlikely that you can perform better than them Wink

I had an advantage over a bookmaker very few times. The one I remember with more "sympathy" concerns an old bookmaker that is no longer active that allowed you to bet on the relegation of a team (that mathematically had already gone in financial bankrupt and was on the last place in the rank).

the odds were low, and there was a minimal risk of a hypothetical rescue, but we are talking about a practically impossible case on a practical level.

This questions are not for me because I do not see betting to be beyond entertainment. But let me answer you. The bookie sites are growing day after day. They are making enough money from people. All what they need is to have millions of registered users. The more their users bet, the happier the bookies are because they know that is more money for them to make. When I gamble less frequently, I won more. But I still have it in mind that it is just what should not be taken seriously. If I see it in the other way, it will not be good.
