Most of the time when I prefer to go with the underdog my choice will be live betting, because during the match we'll get better odds so that the bet amount can be minimised and our luck can be tried. This at times brings luck and in such a stance I've won @10 odds, but those are very minimal bet amount. Other than this when the match is in critical situation, where any of the team could win I prefer making bets which will have high chance of wins.

Underdogs are usually good to bet because of the odds, no matter it's live beating or pre-game.

But if you watch the game and thinks that maybe the odds are not going in your way, perhaps you can bet again to minimized your losses and that's mostly I done though. So for me it really depends on the game itself and how the teams are playing that time. Or maybe you can go put a big bet on the underdog even if the odds chance slightly on their favor, still a win win for us.
back to the strategy of each bettor. every bettor has a strategy that can make himself profitable with minimal risk such as betting before the match starts or when the match starts.
but in essence it's all about the profits you get and if I look at some of the replies, more are using 2 strategies, namely betting in 2 ways as the OP mentioned.

As long as the chances of winning are high, we can choose which one but that also doesn't rule out the possibility that the opposing team can reverse the situation so we also have to be aware of who the opponent is. You can place a big bet, but that's also risky, especially if it's an underdog who usually performs better than his opponent. So if before the match we have seen that the odds are higher and coupled with the results of our analysis, it shows that the odds are higher than the opposing team, we can immediately place the bet, watch the match, and hope we can win.

Cast your bet in a match that have yet not started or bet when the game is already live?
It must have been asked before but in case new sports bettors have not yet read such thread, reply back your opinion about it.

I'm comfortably doing both, I bet on games that haven't started when I kwonthe two teams playing very well that I can easily predict which team is going to win due to the form they're on and their passed history between both clubs and where the game is been played.

If I don't know anything about the teams playing but I want to bet on them then I'll only place my bet during the live games as by watching the game you can see who will score first, win the first half or other options that your sportsbook gives you to place your bets on.

Sometimes too I can bet on the game before it starts then as I'm watching the game and I see some conviction that the game is going to turn out in a  specific way then I can bet as the game is going on. Watching the games can give you the believe you'll need to place your bet.

Cast your bet in a match that have yet not started or bet when the game is already live?
It must have been asked before but in case new sports bettors have not yet read such thread, reply back your opinion about it.

Found myself losing when the money line changes from 1.75 to 4.35 as the game began. But sometimes when I also wait for the game to start, it changes to worse such from 1.75 to 1.10

I think this answer depends a lot on the profile of each gambler....

Live betting is more enjoyable for those looking for an "adrenaline", but the risks are greater and you have to make quick decisions based on what is happening during the game (although I've heard reports of sites scoring a goal before it even happens... . unproven). My advice to anyone placing bets online is to only place single bets.

However, I am surprised by your presentation of odds, as usually pre-game odds are quite stable.... compared to what we have in live betting.

I particularly like pre-bets, I do my studies based on statistics and set up a bet, then I only worry about checking at the end of the game.

I bet my games when the match not started because the odd will be bigger and better then since it is not certain if a particular team will win but when the game is live, there's every tendency of odd reduction especially when a particular team is enjoying the possession and ball control of the. When ever the odds changers in a particular bet you played, you should have in my that the team is likely to lose in the game or there's a possibility of a player who's the hit man in the team is injured and it's unsure if the player will be playing the game.

Based on your statement, obviously, you are only focused on your favorite team to win therefore you can't really take advantage of the odds in the Live Betting if your betting option is only limited to that team not unless you are willing to face risky betting options towards your favorite team, of course, associated with high odds.

Generally, being "neutral" is a more appropriate and considered thing when doing Live Betting since your decision won't be based on your Favorite team but rather, on how to make profits by playing with the odds regardless of the team.

Anyways, live betting or betting on pre-match odds, both require a serious approach. There are really bettors who really have the interest to only bet on Live Betting compare to betting on pre-match odds and vice-versa. Self-preference indeed.

Never heard of this instance before. If you would bet from pre-game, the odds that you bet would be fixed and won't change afterwards. On visuals yes it would change especially if you would refresh the gambling site but if you would check your betting history, odds should not change the moment you put your bet into a particular odd. If it does, then there's something wrong with the website. Changing of odds more often is something which is present with live betting given that there are many gambler who does it. In every bet, there would be a change with the odds and as the game goes on. If gap on scores is big, then expect for a lower odds and lower returns. But if scores are xlose to one another then odds would still be big. Losing on the other hand is not because of odds. Betting with higher odds won't guarantee winning and would mean higher risk as well.

There is a lot of advantages and disadvantages in pre match and live. Live can be good but mostly you cannot hit really big odds but it is usefull because you can watch the match and see how it goes and make easier predictions. In pre match you need to analyse the match and hope that they start well like you expect them but you can hit a really higher odd

I have tried betting on a pre-match and I've had a smaller chance of winning as per my experience. I wasn't able to analyze and provide an appropriate prediction as the whole match might change during the live.
I think it will be easier to make accurate predictions while the match is ongoing so you'll have a complete idea about the status of the players that day. There's a better assurance when it comes to prediction so the chances of winning are higher. However, the result would still usually rely on our luck. We can bet early or during the live match and win if we're lucky that day or vice versa.

Things would be the same. Whether you bet before the game or during the game, you won't have a guarantee that you will win. But sometimes, betting on live workss and helps gamblers to decide a bet. The downside on betting on live is that odds tend to change faster because bet comes after another. If it is game winner I'd say it would be much better to bet before the game as with pure speculations. But betting live would give you a hint however lower odds and lower winnings for sure.

Go with what best works for you or which would give you  better feeling. Betting on live is nerve wrecking simply because you will see every point to count. And you know to yourself that as long as tge gaame has not yet ended, anything could happen.

I honestly didn't even know that you could bet on games after they went live until just a couple years ago.  My thing is, if I feel a certain team's spread is too high, I'll try and bet if the other team starts to close that spread gap early in the game, this way I can't get a better spread to go on.  That being said, there's a good amount of time where this strategy doesn't work out so it's a tricky thing.
Its always been tricky in the first place on which those odds might really be looking on huge gap which it did make you decide on betting early until you've seen that its getting smaller as the game is progressing then
you would eventually tell to yourself that it was a good call on making bets earlier? or you would really be having those doubts that a certain bet would win up? It would be all according into your own perspective
and approach on a certain condition because each of us does have that own preference whether you are really that a fan on betting on live games or would really be betting before the game.
Comparing the odds then it wont really be that something to be fixed as always but nothing beats out if you do see worthy numbers which you could see that you have that good winning chance or profits.

I prefer to bet before the game hasn't started yet because I will have a lot time to think and analysis which one will win than just bet on live game where you're need to beat your emotion and adrenaline at that moment. Bet before the game hasn't started will give you more confidence about your decision and you will not regret if you're bet on wrong team or fighter. But bet on live game you has a high chance to bet on wrong team or fighter and you might blame yourself for taking too quick decision.

Well, we agree with what you said, betting before the match is held makes us more confident after going through a series of research and analysis. sometimes even, I personally always re-select whether what I choose is in accordance with the results of the analysis. however, I'm more inclined to bet when the match is about to start, for example in the next hour or two. where I have to make sure that there are no changes that have been my consideration and research. I mean, both from the system, formation, line-up of players and all things related to it. if everything goes according to the scenario, I can make the choice with confidence.

It's different when I'm going to bet for multibet options, or we often say parlay options. usually, I'll do six hours of research before the fight starts. because, there are several teams that I will analyze and it takes up quite a bit of my time to research them.
For the option to bet on live games, it's also quite fun because there is an adrenaline rush when we are about to make a choice. unfortunately, in this option, we often get stuck because we instantly analyze it. apart from all that, in essence it is the same that we want to win from the team we are betting on.

For me betting when game is already started is more preferable, as you can see how and which players play, their mood, selected strategy and etc. Making a bet before event started, this is similar to guessing, as prediction is made only using numbers on the paper. In combat sport, on the paper one can be a true favourite, while other is a heavy underdog, but in the ring or octagon they are skilled even.
That is if we are still allowed to place a bet because that gives the bettor a higher chances of winning. I think a little delay is still fine but we can't get much info about it. Betting early must have its own advantage too and that is; you will get a better/bigger odds or the money that you win can be a little higher than if you are placing a bet late. Those who bet early can still be able to win sometimes especially if they team it up with research and analysis.

Even though sports betting is known to have a skill and knowledge involved, it is still a form of gambling because there will still be instances of a comeback where an underdog can win unexpectedly. I think in other words, it means that we are simply unlucky.

I prefer betting before the game cast its start. Maybe the odds might change before the game turns live but it is what it is. I will rely solely on the team I betting with. Also, when the game is already live, and then I put up a bet, I tend to confuse about which side I'm going to bet on because I am looking at the stats changing, unlike the pregame which I have a static analysis that is yet to move.
For this I also often do things like this by being there sometimes even long before the match starts as long as I am sure of my bet and one example might be when I was in the Champions League final because there I even made bets a few days before the match was held.
But on the other hand I still feel this can also be flexible where of course there are some bets that I make when the match has started. but usually for bets like this I'm not too sure about my choice and try to see the games that are run. When it was indeed possible and the odds were also quite supportive for the bet I also did this several times.

That would totally depend on the teams playing the match and my confidence in the team I'm about to bet on, if I know that the team I'm betting on will surely win because they have an advantage or they are a better team, I will obviously not wait for the match to start because that will reduce the odds and there is no point in that since I won't change my decision and bet on the opponent as they are the weaker side.

If it's a match where both teams are good and I'm confused about which one would win, I might wait and see a few minutes of the game to find out which team has a better touch and how both teams are playing and then I will decide who will win and place my bet accordingly.

I always have this irrational feeling that if I bet on a game which is not live, it will be manipulated. But as I said, match fixing and stuff like that does not really exist at the high professional game level. There are too many eyes watching for that to happen without notice.

It has not been proven, although there are rumors. Personally, I believe that some games may be fixed in major leagues. However, since we cannot provide concrete evidence, it is best to consider it as part of the game and adjust our betting approach accordingly. While some people may complain about the possibility of game-fixing, I believe the focus should be on betting wisely and choosing the right side, regardless of any potential fixes.

Somehow bettors will think the way goldkingcoiner does because the live game changes things as it goes. People wanted to bet on live games because they wanna make sure which team is winning and bet on them.  The catch is that the profit to win is lesser and lesser.

At some point, the bookie will stop bettors from casting when it's evident that one team is winning. But I think they shouldn't wait for this to happen before suspending the betting because it's ruining the analysis of users who bet in advance.

I usually place my sports bet before the game starts and wait for it to finish. Set and forget is what I usually use so whatever happens doesn't affect me. It's better for me because by placing a bet before the match and leaving it, I don't have to bother to re-analyze if the situation in the match changes. And if the profit amount could be higher in the middle of the match, I might as well withdraw the money before the game ends. I do that because occasionally, I have a match condition that changes direction again and makes me lose money in bets.
