Well, if it's 1.2, you make 5 bets and you're in 2x profit. I'm also considering multi-betting on such bets.

That's not how it works because odds 1.2 is not a sure win.

I can't understand the logic of playing multi-betting on odds at 1.2. You expect to win because of the odds, not because you know how those teams performed.

But if that your preferred style of betting, and if it works for you, then good.

1.20 odds usually win but if you parlay it with 1.20, you will only get 1.44 which is still low or less than 50% of what you will get when you win. Therefore, I find this method hard to win in the long run as two bets compared to one, one bet is easier to win. In addition, it's important to understand that oddsmaker knows the probability in every odds they'll make and it should always favor on the sportsbook.

If you want to multi-bet on very low odds like 1.20 it is better if you make it more than 2 bets. With only two bets, the odds would still remain low just like your example.

What do you mean by oddsmaker always favoring sportsbooks? Sportsbooks don't have a house edge unlike other casino games. With sports betting you don't beat the house. The betting site always wins because in every match they will receive a certain amount from the loser.

Betting on Lower odds is a good strategy but you should be careful and know your timing when you should not bet. Because it is also a big risk especially since you can lose a lot. It is better to study each team first so that you know who is better than them so that you have an idea who will win.

I think if alot of time is put into researching & and understanding competiting teams, bettors could make a headway with large occasional bets, than say betting frequently with little to no understanding of the competiting teams.
They could spend a whole month (for example) researching and understanding the teams that will be involved in future matches, then bet something reasonable, depending on how good & confident the bettors are

Safe bets in sports betting is possible, but the same isn't possible with every game. It is good to bet on matches in which both the teams are predicted to have a close fight for the winning. Also this is possible with limited gambling websites where it is possible to cashout even before the game ends. Based on the match changes there'll be increase in the cashout than the bet amount. Here one should not get greed.

But what you are talking about is still not safe. You can never predict the outcome of every match and in the instances where both teams are going to be closely fighting, then the odds are not good to pick a spread.

Only promos give players the edge in sportsbetting.

Sometimes, no matter how much money we use to bet, we can be a rush to place the bets because we feel that we will lose the opportunity to win if we are late to place the bet. The big loss will wait behind us if we don't research to find the team with a chance to win. Sometimes, the research will need longer than we can imagine, and don't forget that the situations can change every time, so you need to have another strategy if necessary.

One close to really safe bet would be in football if you take first team playing against the last team of the season. The Payout will be below 1.1 so not a lot of upside in such a bet. But even in such a bet it's not a 100% safe. Every football player can have a bad day, we are all humans. The top team might not actually lose, but they could still play tide which would lose you the bet. I would recommend to not look for a truly safe bet because it's just not worth it to bet with such a small payout. Better to go for riskier bets with a high payout, even if you lose a few of them you can make a nice profit.

There are still safe bets in sports betting although we must not rule out upsets because it's part of the game, in every sporting events there will be strong and weak teams and from there you can take the odds and it's for you to grab but betting in a lower odds has a good chance for a gain, since this is a sports betting analysis always plays a big factor.

Everything would have corresponding timing and some exclusions on some situation where it can greatly affect the chances of winning of a certain team.Having low odds selection doesnt really
guarantee you on complete win but at least we do have higher chances for it to hit yet this had been common when it comes to favorites but the bad thing is that when you do lose
then you would need multiple low odd bet winnings for you to compensate on what you had lost and this is one of the cons.

Quote from: bitbollo on September 18, 2020, 12:45:10 PM

it can be really impossible have a "safe" bets. If it will be seriously safe no one can accept it .
but there are just few exemptions like betting on some events that are strongly easy to predict.
Like players/team that are resuming from a long stop or situations where one of team has not really interest in this match (like the last turn of a league series and everything has been already decided).

Some years ago I was so lucky to bet against a team (relegation in low series) because in my country was 101% sure that due debts they was not able to remain again in a major league.
A couple of foreign bookmakers was accepting the same this bet! The odds wasn't to high (around @1,10) but it was a sure bet!

You can able to differentiate or notice it out this is why having knowledge and keeping yourself updated is always been an advantage compared to those who do just
simply make bet and be sure just because they are on low odds or heavily favorite.Yes, it might works but not all the time.

For gamblers who have less experience maybe yes but it's a joke if you believe that "safe bet" do exist.

There is really a safe bet, if the team is winning you bet in sports like 5x in a row then most probably betting on it gives to the better chance of winning.

Quote from: Maslate on September 17, 2020, 01:44:05 AM

The fact that we are gambling, we are facing the risk already based on the odds we are betting, the higher the odds, the lower the risk and same goes with the opposite. As a gambler it's important that we should act mature so we make a mature decision, it's not necessary to learn from our mistakes as we can learn from other people's mistake and the first thing we need to learn is understand the basic especially the risk involve in betting.

Odds are given when there is something unfair, so you get an odd in winning, this does not mean that the team you have bet to won. Knowing the background and doing your homework before betting is necessary if you really want a safe bet, or let's just say a good decision. When you take risk in gambling, it's all the fortune that you need to get.

Safe bets does not excess in sports betting, every bet you'll make regardless of the odds are always risky. Man, I'm done with that experiment and I tell you it does not work on my end, what strategy I'm using now which is I am comfortable is betting on odds 1.90 and above.

Maybe you're right, but I have to try for myself to see how it plays out for me. In the meantime, I'm taking part in the EPL prediction pool, so predicting the score of each match there is obviously not the low-risk bets I'm used to, and I can see and compare how it works for me.

Okay, please share your experience then, I suggest you make your own thread to track your experiment, this is all about betting on low odds right?
Good luck on that, that seems to be a hard mission so just don't get too aggressive.

Yeah, maybe making my own thread is a good idea! I'm shy for that for now because I don't feel experienced enough and I don't think I'm betting enough with those low bets right now (I'm focused on the prediction pool, and predicting the score is far from safe). For now, I lost one multi bet that was comprised from three that had less than 1.5 odds each (two won, one lost, so I lost the bet). It's my first loss after three wins, so I don't feel encouraged to experiment with multi bets, but I think I'll find time for all that once the season is over.

I personally don’t think that there are any safe bets in sports betting. You may find a strategy that could keep you winning for a time but the odds doesn’t really guarantee winning. After all this is gambling and risk is a major companion in every move you take.

The odds to win is greater if you know the game and the teams that are competing, of course you are going to lose sometimes, because there is such a thing like upsets, where people are confident in one team or a player and losses because of an upset, sports bettors never overlooked upsets it's part of the game, there is really no safe bets but there are good odds to win a bet.

That is why we need to know each team that will match to increase the odds of winning. But that will not always guarantee to win because sometimes the situations can change, and the weak team can win easily because of a small mistake. Perhaps, the safe bets will be related to the amount of money that we use to bets, so we don't place bigger bets. The losing money from that bets will not be too big, and we only place a bet with the money we can afford. If you can do that, you will not have to feel sad if you lose the money.

Choosing the game with lower odds seems predictable but it is really not going to give decent profits but the profit of 10 wins can go by single lose with this strategy so net profit will be none at the end of the day.Go with slightly higher odds and predict based on your own analysis which could be the worthy sport betting.

Things should be have on consideration when dealing up with low odds.Always think that one loss will surely eat up all of your profits on the games you had won. Odds of 1.1-1.3 i dont see it for me to be interested into these numbers but if i cant find a better one then i might consider for this time but
depending on the game ive been following.If your on that uneasy or in doubt then better to skip out on that day.

Thats why its called gambling because nothing is assured when it comes to winning.You might win and on a streak but doesnt mean

that you would experience it forever.There would be a time that you would lose even if you do always follow on favorite teams.

Game can turn upside down and thats why each bet should really be accompanied with good analysis from time to time.

If you will able to bet in a sports you're familiar with, with players or teams you tend to follow and believes in their skills, actually it can be a safer bet. In these way you will not weigh too much your bet and will just seem to support the team. Like here in my country when it's league time and people mostly just bet in the team they wanted even they lose it still seems fine as they were really a supporters of those team.
Betting in sports is much safer than doing any bets in casino as we can track the record of the players and the team.

I agree that sports betting is safer than other gambling games, because if we have good knowledge about the team or player
who will play which one is better, it's easier to win in sports betting. The key to winning in sports betting is our knowledge in
the sports world. Your country's citizens are extraordinary, willing to lose to support the team they wanted. True loyal supporters,
the possibility of your country's population is quite prosperous due to financial matters.
