There are safe bets, but not something that will give you a profit, the one that will give you profits is the one that has the higher odds, some people are winning this, it's pure gambling betting on the opposite but that's gambling you have to take some risks to get a higher payout, there's no excitement if you are betting on the obvious.

My two sure bets:



Betnomi have a very nice sports book! Today I decided to give a chance to favorites, and we will see ho will that go!
We can talk about this for eternity, but in the end it's gambling and all you can do is to place a bet and hope for the best outcome! There are no truly safe bets, be sure in that. It's ours to try it, if you don't try you don't have a chance to win! Well this week is my try on favorites, let's see how sure that is!

Do you mean sports betting? I do not know what could be the reasons for falsifying something on a systematic basis there - the theory of probability does all the work legally and effectively. Sometimes "strange" results do happen in competitions, but these are actually rare cases, and we should not think from this that there is a "conspiracy of all".

Some gamblers have that belief that it's rigged, however, it will remained a theory since we can't prove that statement anyway. As a gambler, we have some mix belief or we are fully convince that the market is really rigged, however we are still betting on it, that means we are finding it favorable on our part.

I think the main reason for this behavior is that most bettors view it as a hobby/entertainment.
And here's my funny observation: let's say a match has 3 outcomes. Player A bets on 1st, Player B bets on 2nd, Player C bets on 3rd. And all three think the market is rigged against him  Grin
In fact, the risk / reward ratio plays against each of them and there is no falsification here.

In fact, in theory, all strategies are bad and unprofitable (if not, then there is an error in the calculations). The paradox is that in practice you sometimes see a "profitable" strategy and it even works at a certain range of bets. But this is just a fluctuation of the normal distribution, and if you take a longer distance, you will still receive a total loss.
As it sounds logical if you are wrong all the time do vice versa and be profitable. But we are not wrong on all bets, as you mentioned the distribution is random. In theory, the strategy can be profitable for the short term but the time factor changes the outcome drastically due to the external factors. In my opinion, changing the strategies will not make the betting profitable because the market is rigged for many years.

I don't think there are strats which really help in practice, in real betting. They might be good in theory and they might give you some extra self confidence thinking you have some advantage and game under control but at the end thus you only deceive yourself. There is no guarantee for winning in any case.

I've read some strats that will help increase the odds of you winning regardless of whose team you are betting on.

This is quite interesting, can you share more about it? I haven't read any of that in my years of experience as a gambler, is that good only for a specific type of game, or you can apply in any types?

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
For a fix or specific odds to call it safe, I doubt that because in my experience of betting low odds, it still does not give me a profitable result in the long run, therefore, blindly picking a team with an odds like that would not really give you a win though you are always playing in a trusted gambling site.
Well picking low odds means that you get high chances of good result which means I could think that you could profit into it. However, I also agree that it is not a guarantee to win over in the long run even if you had pick always the low odds. There are cases that low odds betting losses in a streak that means that you too will made big losses. Well, betting is not about getting profit in my opinion rather it is choice to make fun in it enjoying the sports you like and bet.
But casinos know this and as such they compensate by offering very low returns on those kind of bets giving them an edge regardless of what you do, it is important to remember that casinos are a business and they want to earn money, so even if you had a system that could produce you profits if they check your account and they realize that you have been earning money over the long term and that it is unlikely this can be explained away by just you being lucky then they will most likely ban you even if you did nothing wrong as some casinos have rules on their TOS against professional gamblers.

I've read some strats that will help increase the odds of you winning regardless of whose team you are betting on. But essentially, there's no way you can predict the odds on a sporting bet. especially if it's going to be a multiple contestants game like horse race unless if the game is unfairly tipped over to one contender. But again, essentially, there is no safe bets in sports betting.

There is no safe odds or low odds on horse racing. Most of the horse participants are sharing close odds or the low odds can still consider as risky (around 1.6).

But anyway, on whatever sports, betting at minimum 1.1 or lower is a waste of money to me.

Can't believe someone will put some amount on that odds.
Just a small example from yesterday if someone still believes they can catch something by checking the odds on big bookies:
Pinnacle as one of the biggest bookmakers in the sports gambling industry has decreased the odds of 3.5 total goals in the Barcelona-Dynamo match. At 22:13 the odd was 1.63 but it has sharply gone down 20 minutes before the match. At 00:00 the odd was exactly 1.52 while the same bet was 1.56-1.65 on other bookies. Telegram betting groups have sent alerts about this "fixed bet" but the outcome has not changed. The final score was 2:1 and it is under 3.5. I just shared this explanation because I have made a bet on this bet selection too  Smiley

I don't know what exactly he meant, but most likely these are nonsense strategies like "the top team cannot lose three matches in a row." Based on this statement, the bank is divided into three parts and bets are placed on matches. After the first defeat, the second part of the bank is used, after the second, the third part of the bank. The bottom line is that profits are meager, but even top teams sometimes lose three matches in a row ...

The results of each game when you play gambling is literally unpredictable so I bet that there is no Totally a safe bet because anytime you may experience to lose a game and sometimes you may win depending on how fortunate and lucky you are because if we take a look at some instances there players who are newly players but had experience a winning streak at first play so for me its a matter of luck and fate.
Matter of luck and fate is really that much of needed but we know that analysis and skills on decision making will really be having a good role on increasing up the chance
which is way more better rather than playing with those pure luck based one.Safe bets doesnt exist on real life specially when dealing with gambling thats why its called
gamble because it has the risk of losing and if gambling is way this profitable then there would be lots of gamblers are riding in lambos now yet they do able to make money on this one too
easy.People who do believe that there are safe bets in sports betting then they should remove that kind of mindset but instead they should work on how they do make
analysis into those games on where they do make out some bet.

Greetings! When I started betting on various events, I kept putting money on the options that were offering high payout but, naturally, weren't that likely to come true. I kept losing, so I decided to go for a radical change: betting only when the winner is pretty obvious and the payout is low but more or less secured. I won a few bets in a row like that, but my question is whether you'd consider it a good strategy for sports betting. I'm talking about bets for which the odds are 1.15 or something like that. Here're some bets I won like this:


Are these bets as safe as they seem? Would you go for this strategy or not? Why?

Believe me, it is not really safe at all. As some people said in here, there are a lot of people think the same and make bets like this. You could win like this for a couple times in a row but this could make you believe that you will win every time you play like this. After that, you may find yourself making bets with much more money than before. When you lose, you will probably lose a lot of money and you will desperately try to recover that money quickly. But it will probably make things much worse. So, my advice is that don't get too accustomed to play like this.

As long as you are not stressed about a bet, you should be safe, and yes 1.4 odds for a team to win is as safe as it gets if you are in a trusted sportsbook, that is all you can get at maximum.

Upset will still be there as no assurance in any types of gambling, some might be rigged and it's still counts that mafias can bring something to any games around sports industries.

Can possibly happened when options around the live events gives you ideas that certain bets can possibly win, but it's as always there are some where experienced gamblers keeps eyeing on it and study the big potentials.

Many articles have already been written about it, of course. It is also important that you get enough value for a bet.
Sometimes you see that the odds are too low for what it should be, then you are hurting yourself before the match has even started.
I think that ultimately no strategy is safe, the only thing that is safe for you to choose the right strategy for your bankroll management.

ya.ya.yo!
in the world of gambling there will be no strategy that can be used for the long term, usually when you try something and you can get a profit then it is just the result of luck because in the next game trying to do the same thing may not necessarily give the same result, so be careful. the heart makes decisions in gambling because the stakes are very valuable money when conditions like this.

If it is considered a strategy to be objective and focused on the statistics, standings, playing capacity, etc, then it is one thing that you could actually use for the long term. That's for sports betting of course. That cannot be used for random or luck-based games.

The heart should not be given a central role in gambling. It is either that or you will not gain a positive net in it.
That will be the advantage when you are in sports betting, you can maximize your knowledge and that winning mindset could be still unlikely we are in a pure luck based games. However, it is not a way to think about safe bets, nothing really it exist in gambling. That is the reason whya we have that 50/50 chances both winning and losing. If we consider gambling as a main source if income, we are absolutely wrong with that assumption.

No we are not speaking of gambling as a source of income. That is not possible. There are professional gamblers who can survive with their gambling wins but I don't believe they started from gambling funds alone and made it far only with gambling money. Even in skill based games, winning is never guaranteed and bets are still not safe either.

I think there is a very small percentage of professional gamblers who can really make for a living with gambling. And they are always at the edge because they have to risk big and there is no guarantee they will win all the time and make enough money. There is no safety and security in gambling of any kind and every gambler needs to be aware of that.
