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 usually play with pre-match bets, not usually live. I'd much rather see the result AFTER the match, and not bother myself with the changes that occur related to my bets during the match. I've tried it a few times before, it was a huge pain in the ass especially since I enjoy watching the game themselves. Worrying about my bet while watching? Not so much. Granted in those few times I have tried to play with live bets, so a big change to odds isn't something unknown to me (another factor why I don't do live).

Matches that are far from the day it will hold use to have large odds prior to the day it will happen, this is because the event is yet to capture too much attention and so predictions are always difficult and then the bookies will placed big odd to attract bettors to make drastic decisions because of greed in their odds and as the event reach the day, it get reduce because people already knows who will win and who will lost, they also do that to reduce their own risk of losing money to you. That's why in that day, you will be seeing something like 1.2 odd, 1.11 odd and if the team you are betting on is having 70% winning chances, you may see odds as small as 1.01 odds.  Grin

Live betting can be fun if you watch the match live. You can evaluate the current form of a player or team, changes in tactics or injuries that occur during a match. For example, if one team is the clear favorite but the weaker team is lucky enough to score an early goal, the odds can change drastically giving you an advantage over if you had placed a pre-match bet. But as others have mentioned, it really depends on the specific case and your betting strategy. I generally only use live betting if I'm watching a game at the same time.

Each of these has its own challenges. Maybe if I had lots of money and was used to it, I'd do both. because usually if you make a bet before the game and the results match or are close, the results will be bigger and very profitable. But this is how it is, high gain, high risks. Vice versa if betting during the game, especially when it is nearing the end, there may be less risk but also less gains.

Really depends on the situation if the game or fight is so tight then I may have to cast my bet during live and one more reason about that is there might be some sudden movement about the lines during live mainly if the suspected outcome is not that likely to happen.

But when I'm somehow confident about who will be the winner then that is the time to cast my bet much earlier as at that time, there could be some great odds especially if I'm rooting for the underdog(s) to upset the favorite(s). Other reason why I will have my bets in advance is if I have some scheduled errands later that day.

You know everyone is having the strategy that's working for him, so you will have to go for what's working for you. When am gambling, I prefer placing my bet before matches that are yet to start, am always taking my time and choosing the games which I will be betting on, but immediately a match have started and I decide to place a bet, then I will end up losing, I don't really know the cause maybe its because am not always settled at that moment so am always losing, since I notice am always getting it wrong then I stopped it because I was just wasting money on it. Before any match start I will take my time and select the teams which I will be betting on, if the matches start, I will just keep on monitoring my bet.

Live betting are for those who are seeking for more excitement and wants to earn more.
Personally, I prefer to bet before the game started since that’s the concept of prediction for me and I have to focus on the game so I don’t want to get disturb just because I have my bet especially if I’m watching the game live as well. Though there are times where I bet during the match I can say it's more stressful especially if you bet on a different side.
Well the sense of placing a bet is to win and I don't see anything as being bet on a favourite club and not on the possibility of winning the match,  even if I am a fan of a club,  once I am sure that their opponent is stronger than them and have high chances to win the match,  I will select the potential club against my favourites clubs because of my ticket to win.

Live games have been the most helpful in sport betting and I have won a lot of bets using that feature at least it gives you the chance to predict the outcome of the match easily most especially when the match is already in the second half,  the possibility to win becomes high.

I prefer to bet on a game way before it started.  I observed that odds are better during those times.  While live game maybe more exciting I also find the odds during the live game drastically changes to worse especially when the favorite is leading.  Aside from that betting on live game can upset us when are watching the game and think that we are sure about who will win is then bet on that team but eventually the result is the opposite.

Usually it's not so good to bet when matches have started because live bets have often big margins, so odds can drop from 1.75 to 1.71 for example just because the scheduled time of the beginning of the match has been reached, even if players haven't started to do anything. Bets with fix odds allow you to bet at the current instant without having to think about how actual probabilities will change till the beginning (or till the end if live betting is available) of the match.

Well, if the platform allows you to cash out in the middle of the match, you can get easy money off of it. It may not be as big as you can get, but there's still some money to be had on it. The flexibility of live betting is what makes it more attractive to bettors. You can know which guys in the team are out in the last minute, and who will be the replacement if any. The fixed odds offered by pre-game bets however, are also good especially if you are betting on an underdog that performed unexpectedly well in a game that they're not supposed to be on top.

I would prefer to bet before the match starts.
Because I really like things that make myself curious and doing independent research before placing a bet and betting before the match starts for me it will be more profitable for me because the odds haven't changed quickly and we have plenty of time to do research.
If you bet when a match starts, the odds will always stop and when any club looks to win the odds will get worse and the profit you will get will be bad.

Better on live games its still way risky than actually betting on events and games that haven't started yet. But the facts is that betting on any match is also a risk because no one knows the possible outcome of the  game. Sometimes I have when betting on live games end up being more frustrating than usual because sometimes the moment you place your bet on a match which money line is a 1.50 odds at half time the outcome might eventually change the moment you place the bet.

Betting on a live match can be so confusing to betting on games that haven't started yet. Cause the live games is where the odds makers find it easy to deceive gamblers by making up a high  deceptive odd in favor of a team that could end up losing the game. One of the most disadvantage of betting in live game is that of not been privy to certain information about an on going match that the gambling site have already gotten knowledge of and then use odds to attract glambers in betting for it only to end up having a backlash in the play, by then the gambler has already placed the bet. So I prefer betting on a game before it kick off after making my analysis and getting my strategy in place.

If I don't have the time to watch the game (which I don't most of the time), I just leave a bet on the game on lines that I think would retain more value than other lines. If I have time, I prefer to bet on live and cash out immediately when I see that something is about to go wrong on my bet - kinda like preventing a loss before it occurs. Most casinos allow that on live bets and it's one of the safest ways to make money on sports betting that not a lot of people are aware of.
This is so me!  Smiley

Most of the time i do really miss out on watching a certain game live on which even i do make out a bet then most of the time i do just simply trying to see if those bets did won or lose.
If i do have that vacant time or something that it would really be in great timing on which there's nothing something been doing then i might really be able to check out and see it live.
I do make out bets before the game or it hasnt started yet.I dont really like on betting on something which odds do keeps on changing as the game goes on.
I do want to be fixed because you do know on what would be your potential winning if the match is over and not something that you would be expecting some good
odds but later on it did make out some adjustments.

in my opinion it depends on each person's strategy, for example in cases of games in the main leagues, I'm talking about the premier league, la liga, serie A, bundesliga and liga1, if you are watching it on tv you will see that there are some small delays and if if you are watching on the internet, you can also run the risk of crashing and spending a long time waiting to resume, and this affects a little when placing bets, now if the games are broadcast in the casino itself, because there are some leagues with the usa league and the NBA and some others that are broadcast in casinos

so it may be easier for you to bet, but that is if you have already done an analysis of the game and you have seen that team x is better but you need confirmation, and in order to have that confirmation you will have to watch the game live for a few minutes, now on the over and under goals market it may be more advantageous to place live bets. it all depends on what kind of market you feel most comfortable with. In my case I use both options. but in the case of the big soccer leagues I always place bets before the games and now with the holidays in the big leagues I don't have anything to bet on, I tried to bet on the games of these small leagues but I'm doing very badly

The best is to place bets before the game has started if you are confident enough that this event that you have chosen to bet on will be a winner and also all predicting websites,news,analyses says the same and back your choice.

I personally prefer to bet on live games as I don't like trying my luck before the game has started,I also choose games that I can watch on live streams,nowadays almost all leagues even low ones you can find stream for them and while I watch the game I create an idea in my mind as what the best bet will be,usually I play with over/under goals most of the time in live games or total goals from a specific team.
Me too, I just want to see how these team will work in the first part of the game and then that's where will I decided to bet . Been doing betting before the game but end up losing, I always bet in esports in which what team will get the first kill etc. But now I realized I let them start playing on live before making decision because you will see the glimpse of their strategies.

You may have a point on this, seeing them live will give you a hint how they will perform with the rest of the game.
However, expect the odds will change as well. So don't expect too much about the selection of odds.
But if you happen to bet before the start of the game and you are seeing a different results once the game is playing,
you can always cash out, if the bookie is still allowing you to cash out, at least not losing much from your bet.
Because there's only time duration where you can cash out your bet, otherwise, wait for the result of the game.
And this decision depends on the sports you are into, and how well you know the athletes involve.

When a game starts and you see how the the dynamics of the game, you can have an idea of what the final outcome of the game can be if you are properly able to observe how the game is going. I can cast my bet on a live game on that condition where I missed making the prediction or analysis for the game before the game started. I do not do it all the time, but only at times when I know that the outcome of the game can be predicted from how I notice and observe the game to be going.

Live betting is great for those who like to increase the tension and excitement of watching live games, and besides that, live betting can be very profitable and fun, especially if you are good at making quick decisions.
and I prefer live betting because with live betting, I can easily realize how different the game is once it starts and this will make me serious and tense while watching, and I value the difference more when watching live.
