I think it is dependent on the gambler himself on how he can perceive that his funds will be way more useful and possible to potential profit because there could be instances that betting small amounts on many matches would be better than the other one or doing big bets on just couple of matches compared to the other one. It is a matter of analyzing the situation and foresee how you can make your money grow as a gambler. Either way, the important thing is you do know how to manage your bets to have long game plays and larger possibility of acquiring a win coming from the matches you got engaged.

Its a sports match I dont think you can apply martingale here but you can apply your sports analytics skills by learning which is important in the sports for a team to win. Whether its a team sports or simply a boxing match. If you are just betting $5 for all the matches you tried, you just have to consider analyzing the skills of the players. For $5 bet I would start trying to check some players that might just result in an upset.

Dont try to accumulate lots of games if your bank is just limited, it is much better to have few bets with big amount on it which i do see much worth to do so specially if you do know much of the sport/player you are betting into not just on trying to scatter out on smaller parts without even knowing the chance of hitting the spot.Agree on the point above that if it doesnt work or isnt making money then you can try for another one and it might
give you some different result.Its just a matter of trial and error, knowing that this is gambling on sports where knowledge on a certain sport does have an advantage rather than rushing on making lots of bets without
any basis or just simply giving out random shots.

Well, if you are a greedy gambler perhaps this is your choice, --to bet higher and higher just because you are aiming o gain money. Not just you are being entertained by the casino. Even a small amount to gamble if you can afford this, that is not a problem here. But I never tried to place my bet over hundred of dollars. I cant push myself to sustain my habit without a source of income from outside cryptocurrency. However, this question is quite personal to answer and which is you can still access this.

I have been gambling a lot these days with soccer matches but I'm not enough lucky to make a profit. Howeber, I'm not into huge loss. It's very tiny amount if I check all the previous P/L.
I don't bet big amount. Usually, I bet $4/$5 worth of BTC on a lot of matches; sometimes I win and sometimes I loss. But that can't make me any profit.
Should I go for bigger amount of bets on few matches or stay with current strategy (placing many bets of small amounts)?
Why would go into your previous strategy if you do see it that it cant really give you out any profits? Therefore, it would be more wiser if you do find another way
or options for you to have the chance on making money.We know that having multiple bets on small amounts would really divide up your concentration and analysis compared if you do just bet into several lines where you can really focus out on which things you should prioritize.You can make some try and find out
if it does work for you.Its not necessarily for you to put up big bets and always stick into that strict fund management.

Betting $10 on multiple games and having a game with good opportunity, I will rather bet such game higher. The new season has taught me some lessons, going with few games is far better than multiple games with lower bet. Though some of my friends do bet multiple games and sometimes make profit but not as when pick few games with good opportunity to win. So, I will embrace few games with big amount than the former.

As for me I'd rather bet in one $50 than $10 in 5 games, especially if I'm quite sure about the bet that's easy peasy. Low balls are actually for the game you does not really know and you just want to test your fortune. The thing with small bets with high number of games is that the risk is quite managed, losses can be easily seen so you can stop as early as possible. Different level of risk that one must consider.

Even if you increase the bet amount from 5$ to 50$, the end result would be same. You will remain on no profit / no loss ratio if you keep on wining some matches and losing some.
The right approach is to bet different amount on different matches. This is risky but then if you win a bet in which you have put 50$ and lost a match in which you bet with 5$, then you will be in profit.

I think it all depends on how sure you are on the bets, if you are 99% certain of a win I would recommend betting high, but if you don't know for sure, it's better to just bet small. I personally prefer to spread out by bets and bet smaller. If I gamble less than $10 on a bet I am not triggered if I lose and I can also go for riskier bets.
Maybe try a few more weeks your current strategy and see how it goes? We shouldn't abandon our strategies to fast.

I run in to this same question for NFL often.  I have kind of gone through both "phases" throughout my gambling "career".  Personally I tend to perform better when I bet larger amounts on fewer games ( what I'm most confident in ) rather than try and spread out my "risk" on more games.  Just how it works out for me personally though.
