Any bettor with sufficient information and acting on it will have better chances of winning than bettors without sufficient information. This is basically what reduces the risk for the skilled/successful bettor. And it applies in many areas of our life. The most prepare or informed will do better than the unformed/less-prepared.

It is all about chances but not really like being safe,

In sports there are good team or player and that we could compare their playing capabilities. There are those times that we can say that a match has high chances for this team or player to win. So, it safe to bet with them. However, there is a chance that bet will going to lose and that will make you surprises like you will going to lose in the bet and that will dissapoint you.

Hard to say that, but I don't think that is a safe bet because that team or player can lose in the game. But maybe you can minimize your bet amount, so if that team or player lose, you will not lose too big money, and that is a safe bet for me Grin

The chance to lose in the big will be there, and as we see that the situations in the field can change without we want. The smart bettor will not just place the bet without thinking about the risk behind the game.

For me i bet theres is no such any safe bets in sports, it is somewhat depending on a high chance and having all depend upon the luck. Sports betting don't have any assurance of what team will going to be a winner because sometimes even the stongest team with strongest player end failure in a game. So this only mean that sports betting were risky also, a 50/50 chance of winning or losing in such a sports bet no assurance of how you going to win the game.

And yet we can't decline such a 50/50 winning and losing probability especially when two great teams are playing. And during that time we probably put our bet to our favorite team. Losing couldn't be really disappointing because for me the most important is I enjoyed watching them, doing their best on the floor but they are so unlucky to win the game.

That it makes me feel and think that gambling has no chances to be safe. No single day we think that we've got a hundred percent assurance of winning, definitely not.

No there's no such thing as safe bets once you placed a bet you already take it to risk. Even if you bet in a small amount and winning in long run you will still lose and you will take you longer to recover that losing bet and while trying to recover it by placing bets on lower odds there's still a chance that you will lose again. So the risk never stops in betting either sports betting or casino.

Yeah, but I must say some markets offer better odds than the possibility of happening. Technical analysis might help you grab the best odds and eliminate house edge or even turn it in your favor. I give an example, recently when Naomi Osaka withdrew from US open the markets wouldn't update as fast and one can bet on her opponent to reach finals and get great odds. I know she then decided to play the US open and actually won the tournament but there are many such instances where one can take benefit and defy odds.

Such bets can be called as safe bets because the opponent withdrew and there is no possible way to lose the bet and in worst case the sportsbook will just cancel the bet and refund which is never a problem since you don't lose anything.

Even if the market offers better odds, that doesn't mean we can win easily because we need to think about the possibility that might happen in the middle of the game. The analysis can be wrong, and there is no guarantee that we can win for that.

But remember that the technical analysis can not always help you grab the opportunity to win, and maybe we need other strategies to be applied if the situations change. But the risk will always be there, so be careful.

Yes, betting on sports only relying on low odds basically still won't guarantee you will win easily, because there will be time for you to get bad luck.
Below are the bets made last night, look what happened. I made a mistake in only one game which is basically low odds, because the other odds are at least higher, with one game losing clearly, my parlay bet is ruined just because there is one game with low odds. I have experienced this kind of incident often and therefore I say, betting on sports will be better to get the best odds, not about the lowest or the highest because the result will be determined by the luck factor you have.

But if you will continue to do the same by relying on low odds, I really appreciate it because you have a lot of patience.

I'm sorry but even if you are a very good forecaster, winning all those bets at the same time is really hard, that's why the total odd was so high. It would have been very surprising if you've won in fact.

It is a delusion to think that everything in this express train was correct, and only one mistake ruined everything. You can look at it the other way: "failure" had several attempts with poor chances, but due to the number of attempts the goal was achieved. It's the same as when you flip several coins at the same time - the chance that everyone will get heads is small, but if you continue to flip this event will happen.

To be honest, I have used that method in the past but in reality it would be a waste of time and still, there is no safest way to bet. I am a parlay enthusiast and when at that time I was frustrated because I kept getting losing streaks from high odds, then in the end I just made a parlay with odds around 1.12 or like the lowest odds in every match I put in the parlay. But what happened still, there was at least one match that made me unlucky, whereas I only bet with the lowest odds but the result still lost. With that experience I no longer look for the lowest odds for a bet, because in gambling it would be better for us to try to get the best odds, because then only luck will make us profit from gambling.

Of course there is no safe bets here, we can increase or decrease the chance but not for 100% sure with any least odds.High odds betting are still risky but people are still making money out of soort betting through deep analysis and fund management which is more important to feel successful than simply looking at the odds of the game.

That was a parlay bet, honestly, it's hard to win a parlay bet especially if you are putting a lot of combination in the game, they called it a sucker bet as most likely our bet will just not gonna hit and it's like us giving money to the sportsbook.

I think it is better if you do what you are doing right now, yes the returns are low but imagine the long term benefit of safe bet, you have more winnings and your losses are winnable by playing one or two bets then compare it if you are a long time high risk betting, though the reward for all the risk is high the chances that you lose are high also because it is the unfavorable bet, basically winning once will not do you justice when you are losing twice.

But even betting on lower odds does not guarantee you profits all the time because while lower odds obviously feels like they must win more often than not but there is always a chance of loosing and the house edge will kill you if you actually bet on low odds.

Quote from: madnessteat on October 06, 2020, 09:36:16 AM

Betting on an event with a lower odds is certainly less risky, but the profit from such a bet is much less.

In my opinion, constantly betting on events with a lower odds is quickly boring, because the pleasure of such a win is not as bright as the pleasure of a more risky bet.

True and it is like rolling dice and feeling safe that you would win on 90% win chance, yes you will win 80-90 times in 100 bets but the 10-20 times you loose will make sure that you are always in loss. Specially in sports betting the house edge is so critically high that you cannot make profits in long run on low odds unless you are just superiorly lucky for a long time.

Safe bets are bet with high probability of wins. That doesn't mean the team can't still not lose and when they do, you end up losing more money than you have won. This is not rocket science, it is natural phenomenon and that is more reason to also analyze bet based on some factors such as injuries, formations, players available for selections, referee etc.

I think I would bet abit higher on bets I am more sure about after doing my thorough analysis/research on matches I want to bet on. This should increase my chances of winning the bets with higher amount, and compassate for losing the bets with lower amounts and lower chances of winning.

Make more sense because higher the probably of wining the match means betting more in that match is good option as based on your research and facts quite possible that teams or players will win it. So placing the bets on such games increases the chances of winning then placing bet on any unknown games. In the end just need to ensure that we do not put everything in one bet and only bet with amount which we can lose too will be fine.

Quote from: Peanutswar on October 10, 2020, 02:56:01 AM

There are some bettors are stating that "this team will win for sure", "Nah this team", "trust me its 100 percent sure they will win this game". These statements are common in sports betting we cannot underestimate the skills and the strategy of other teams sometimes they made history gameplay that we called as the comeback, you can't tell or call too early a defeat once the game still ongoing, I experience this on the NBA Finals with the Golden state warriors they made an amazing comeback on the finals.

That is just it, gambling is just luck, a small team can defeat a mighty giant team but with a very tiny probability, this is common in sport betting. I have used betting to have fun before, I have staked 1.01 and 1.02 odds before and lost, I have staked on big clubs to win a very small club before and lost. There is not sure game in betting until what you staked is won.

Low odd games are safe compared to high odds and the rewards will also be respective to the risks involving, yes low odd is some kind of safe but even you still can lose that bet too often so the net profits will be in negative if you go with this strategy.

I don't think thats the real case mate because even High or Low odds are the same in the world of gambling Not unless in Sportsbetting in which the odds are bigger is the higher the chance to win.
Just play with joy and that is enough,we pay watching Movies to enjoy and be happy so what is the difference when playing gamble?

Sport betting is not really for someone to get entertained or at least in the reality, they are looking to win the match.Higher odds means the winning amount from the total total pool will be higher and it goes other side for the lower odd games.Still there is no assurance about winning the games not matter what are the odds but still its good to choose lower for safe amd not going to be profitable while high has risk along with better rewards.

Sports betting odds is not measure by the chances of winning mathematically, the odds are created by the bookmakers based on people's perception and that made it different from other type of games which we called a luck based type of games.
