I prefer to choose bets from what I like rather than using the copy batch facility from other people because my analysis with him may be different. But maybe some people prefer to use copy batches because they don't need to analyze to find teams with a chance to win. Win. And if it is to practice placing bets on sports betting, it can be done but the important thing is that we must be able to do our own analysis rather than relying on others to choose the team. But before we use copy bets, we must try not to use big money.

I would not copy someone else bets or decisions. Why I should even risk my money, specially with using unknows persons decision? Inst it be better to give that person your money and if he wins, share the prize, but if he looses, bully him and ask for repay? Cheesy To me, a person copying other persons bets means that person is afraid to take responsibility. Being irresponsible gambler is bad. Such person always blames others for his own bad luck.

So for you, is copying bets online a good practices? have you tried it and won before? would you try it when you really want to bet and have no idea where or what sports to bet on?

LEts discuss.


When betting, if you want to follow someone and copy their bets, you should always look for someone that is known for having good results. It makes no sense following an unknown player that you do not know wjat his winning ratio is. Folllowing someone unknown and that you do not have any information about is the perfect recipe for disater.
if you want to copy someone's bets, at least pick someone that is assertive and has proven sucess

Well if you were to view this kind of practice from a different perspective, perhaps it would actually be useful in increasing your odds of winning. We know that many people create their own strategies in increasing their odds of winning. Some people become very good at it. The better you become, the more people notice and everyone starts wanting to copy your bets.
Copying bet is wrong, if not wrong but it is not a good means to bet. You do not have to bet on what you do not know how it is, it is the simplest way to foolishness because this is what do later result to some people thinking they can pay for someone to help them predict and they are scammed.

Some people prefer doing this , but they mostly place their bets after those famous personalities who are known to win big from betting. Personally, I view this as a risky move especially if you'll just copy a bet rrom an unknown bettor with no reputation and credibility to uphold. They might end up messing up and you'll instantly lose your money.

This way is widely known in trading as well. There are people who like to do copy trading and they mostly follow those people that are really good at trading to make the most out of their trade. But it's still so much better that you personally know how betting works and how much risk you are putting your funds into, so that you won't do the blame game afterwards.

Imho it's not. You just blindly trust a random person's picks and you don't know if that person knows the game(s) or not. You can as well just play dice.
If you know the games and can take a look if those bets do make sense, maybe - but then you can do without looking what others do.
So no, I think that it's not a good practice.

Well if you were to view this kind of practice from a different perspective, perhaps it would actually be useful in increasing your odds of winning. We know that many people create their own strategies in increasing their odds of winning. Some people become very good at it. The better you become, the more people notice and everyone starts wanting to copy your bets.

I agree that copying the bets from a single person sounds like a bad idea. But two (or more heads) are better than one. So what if you were to "scan" through the best bettors bets and copy the bets that they all agree on? Would this not up your probability of winning?

It might not, or there might not be enough good bettors making correlating bets. Who knows?

No, I would never do that, because if I will, I would be reliant to that bettor and I would not improve as a sports handicapper. It's always better to study our own, evaluate our strategy and improve based on our own effort, not from other people. As a sports bettor, I always dream of becoming a consistent one, but I cannot do that if I will not spend time to study and learn from my experience.

Every bet is a trial of luck but for gamblers who know nothing about betting they can start from there while the progress into making their own prediction because if predicting games were that easy every gambler should be doing fine through gambling. Even the bettor's slip that is copied is an attempt to win the house and not a sure odd.

For me I don't really see something wrong with copy betting, if you're really coping from a profitable bettor or maybe a good bet tipser , for instance the experience I had with copying trades in Cryptos /forex trading was a good one, because I choosed the right person to copy.
So bringing the senario here in betting will be profitable too, if you do due deligent or access on the historical performance of the bettor to see if he has been a profitable gambler.

I nearly tried copy trading on eToro but decided not to proceed. But this is cool! If there is copy trading and mirror trades then there should also be copy-betting. I haven't checked it yet but I do wonder what will be the requirements for those you can copy-bet. It should not be huge rollers but huge earners based on percentage. I am currently bleeding with my sports betting, so I would gladly try copy-betting on sports. Maybe there's a small incentive for the profit like 1% to 3% for every correct call.

If your goal is just to play and test your luck with that gambler, you can copy it and see the results later. But it will be even better if you master the game so you can look at the list of events, choose the gambler, and copy it. But even if you copy it, you don't have to risk a large amount of money like the gambler because there is still risk behind it. Only betting with money you can afford is the best advice for anything you will do so that if you lose, the amount of money will not be too much and vice versa.

You are absolutely welcome mate, I am very glad the thread is helpful for you, I knew a small number of players wont be aware of this feature, its one I was also very glad when  I discovered it, but like almost every user have commented here, the feature is most helpful if you don't use it blindly, like the two times i used it, i used it blindly to be honest, because I didn't have any idea what i was betting, not even the game, but I still copied it anyway , and luckily, one of it went through, and the next day, I returned again to and i used the feature blindly again but this time, I lost.

You are very lucky to win on your first try, even though on the second try you lose. It's just that we have to realize that Parlay is a type of game that has very little chance of winning. Don't be too pushy to copy bets with big odds (sometimes that's what breaks you).

As I said before, that I will try to copy other people's bets on this week's match for the big leagues, hopefully I can also get a win on my first try.

Copying bet is good for those who do not have an idea of the result and they may copy the bet from experienced gamblers. It increases their probability of winning. It is good to copy a bet from someone who has more winning ratio than to just randomly place a bet.

Also we need to realize that if we copy bets from anyone, still we are responsible for our wins and loss. I have seen people that if they win a cop bet, they are happy but if they lose the bet, they want the person whom they copy the bet be responsible for their loss. This is not how it works. No one is responsible for your win and loss in gambling.

I think this is not a good decision. We have the ability to make our own strategy as compare to copy others.
We should not follow the others. And I think one time if the bet hits it will not come again on same time it will come after some time.

And if you are a regular gambler so you can understand or can make the strategy for your self instead to follow or copy others.

My reason for this thread is actually me wanting to ask if copying bets from unknown bettors is a good practice ?
This is similar to a copy trade, copying every trading activity from the trade leads and in the copy trade we can first see each win rate and ROI of the lead trade that we will choose to follow and the lead trade will get profit sharing from every profitable trade.
 
The question is whether in gambling there is a win rate information, ROI of the bettor who we want to copy the bet? If not, then we choose carelessly, one more thing is there also profit sharing that we have to share with the bettors we follow? If there is then this will only be useful if the bet is big.

Maybe this will be useful when there is a match where we find it difficult to see what will be the come out but still it would be wiser if we also tried to do our own research and compare which person's choices are most likely to win, or also useful if this is the first time betting on the sport so have no idea at all what to choose.

I tried this one time and won actually, though the odd was pretty low and i staked a very small amount as well, but then, i tried it again the next day and lost, though not anything significant

You've followed it and won but at low odds then that's normal because almost all of us can know that the athlete or team with low odds is the favourite bigger chance to win

have you tried it and won before?
I haven't tried going through what you described above yet, but following someone I thought he had good predictions once just preferred to stop, and try to believe in my own predictions.

Well we cannot say it is a wrong thing to do especially if you have bigger trust with others' knowledge of this game. It is fine as long as you are ready for the consequences. There is only one goal, which is to earn profit in gambling and that includes disregarding who played for your end. In such method, you'll have less enjoyment, so if you're okay with that then feel free to do so if you are really that eager to win. On my end since I am not a hard bettor, I prefer playing and creating my decisions alone 'coz even if I lose with my predictions, atleast I have enjoyed it a little more than asking which team should I bet my money with.
Not a good practice if you're completely blank on the game that you're betting on. At least have some knowledge on the game before betting on it. Even if the one you shadow is a successful bettor, it's better that you know why they came up with that decision, and maybe you might not even need their bets to use as a reference in the future. At least, even if they stopped betting you already know how to make decisions alone.
Well, we cannot blame those users who are using this method. Studying or learning something would consume huge amount of time and money as well('coz you won't be able to start right off the bat). I'd say this is a smart way more of a "if you cannot beat them, join them" idea. Regardless of the method, what's important is to fulfill your goal (either to enjoy solely or make profit).

It is not a bad practice if you know what you are doing. Sometimes you will have a double decision about a particular bet and will be confused on what to do. At that moment, seeing other people's bet will be a good help for you. It does not mean that you will copy everything, atleast it will give you some clue on what to include in your own bet.

Just like copy trading, it helps when you that is the bettor has good knowledge of the bet you want to include. You don't do it blindly.

But isn't it that you don't know what you want to bet that's why you are going to copy it from someone? so generally it's a bad practice already. If you don't know then just simply stop and never bet. And how can you have some fun and entertain yourself if you are going to copy someone's else bet?

The only reason why someone will do this, is perhaps out of curiosity, maybe you just wanted to try it and if you win then good for you. But you shouldn't do it that often and rely to other bet slip.

Copying is never been good yet this do really remove out the general essence of doing gambling which is for entertainment purposes on which you are really that tending to bet on which one you do
prefer.If you do really make out some copy bets then pretty sure you would be definitely be regretting if those bets did really lost up.Nothings beats if you do really enjoy up your betting
rather than on totally following random bets and on random person.It cant really just give out that kind of good feeling whenever you do lost money.
Its never been a good practice and you should really be avoiding on doing do.

It's still better if you know the game first. Not a good practice if you are doing it blindly.
It will still pop out in your bet slip and will have time to review it, that means you know what you pick and who are the possible winners of the game.
It's not different with picking it on your own. It just gets the job faster rather than choosing yourself.
Now, there are instances where gamblers do follow people and their bets, in this example if I am right, it is Drake who is mostly sharing his bets to the public and in social media.
Yes. There’s always an advantage if you know the game personally because that means you know where to bet with bigger chances of winning, and not just following random bets out from unknown bettors. Although there are instances that you get lucky too out from copying from those unknown bettors, but it’s rare to happen because most of the time, copying bets will only make you lose more especially if you only copy from those beginners in gambling.
