The longer the game has been played into time the better chances one would eventually feel he can win because the  risk will be reduced as the time frame is also shorten for the game to play. But the funny thing is that this don't actually work every time because the risk is still the same as the chances of the game taking a turn is high.
But the reality will not always be what he wants because losses can come more often than wins in gambling. He must realize that the longer he gambles, the more he can lose, even though he can win occasionally. He cannot hope always to win because it is gambling where there are opportunities to win and lose. But placing a bet at the last minute will not give you a chance to win because it will also depend on the analysis they do. Maybe those who are often late in placing bets at the last minute do so on purpose because there are certain goals they want to achieve.

Luck undoubtedly exists (this is the realization of very small probabilities, such as winning the lottery or just some very unlikely event that did happen), but it is impossible to build a strategy on it. I think we are all interested in winning (or at least getting results from our actions) in a reasonable time, and waiting for a lottery win or other luck is not enough even for a lifetime (from a mathematical point of view).
Luck do exists in the space, it's just a lengthy period of time for this to be triggered. There are gamblers that have everything within their disposal but are yet to make any good steps in gambling, rather they face heavy losses and are seen as the big loser in the system. There's basically alot to learn from the system, we should learn to adapt to a particular game pattern other than duplicate from others. Winnings and accumulating initial profits from wagers on games is the only evidence of a good successful gambler and probably not the sophisticated knowledge impacted.

The very game had their probability of winning,if the gambling site had select you on that day.Then you are winner of that game,some gamblers will create the strategy for every game.Some gambler also choose the strategy for the lottery sometimes.The result is based on the action most of the time,the gambler should agree the process for the win.It may take some time or huge time to the other gamblers.The lottery is based on the luck,their are many games can be used the strategy in that game.The slots,poker was based on the skill hold by the gamblers in that game.So every gambler should increase their poker knowledge to use it wisely.

I have a junior brother who focuses on sports bets only and I also have a cousin who does the same, Judging from both their experiences, being late to bet still doesn't mean it's a sure bet, most times it's a bad bet cos they end up losing and they win only a few times only, I believe it's not about been early or late, it's about how lucky you can be.

You can be fast and you can be slow but that won't determine what your bet results will be, it depends on the performance of those you placing your bets on.
Well, sports betting still relies on luck aside from skills and mastery, so betting on it early or late will not guarantee secured profits in the end. There’s always sudden factors that affect the performance of the team you want to bet, so if they can overcome it, then most likely you will still be in profits. Moreover, some of the bettors go for late betting, probably for high odds, but still no guarantees for that because those odds may suddenly reduced, giving you a rare chance to win bigger profits.
What you said at the end is absolutely true because it has happened to me as well. People who place their bets late thinking that they might get a guaranteed win might actually miss the win sometimes because the match might take a U-turn even if they see it being in their favor at the beginning because you can never know what happens in a match of opportunities which is the case with almost every single sports game in the whole world.

I also made a bet on a cricket match once, I didn't place the bet initially, and when I saw that the team that I wanted to bet on was far ahead of its opponent, I placed my bet with a very high amount for just a small return because I thought it's a guaranteed win, but unfortunately, the opponent managed to win the game and I lost my bet.

There's no early or late when it comes to placing bets in gambling since our decisions to bet will depend on our financial and emotional preparedness. It is our personal decision whether to pursue gambling or not and the result wouldn't rely on the time that we gamble but on our strategy though there isn't any proven strategy that will guarantee good results but as long as we know how to deal with the risk of gambling, then we could enjoy it no matter what the result is.
I think we could consider it late when we're doing it unprepared wherein we aren't sure about what we're doing as well as the risk that we're taking. Somehow, I still believe in luck but I don't really rely on it. I think strategy and techniques will still be more applicable that relying on our fate.

I always remember someone who said something to me, that there are no coincidences in real life. Because there is a process in it. So in that process we must maximize the efforts made. And betting carelessly will only accelerate defeat and cause big losses.

Indeed, gambling should be played calmly and fully prepared, both financially and emotionally. For people who have been gambling for a long time, perhaps some of them are able to play calmly and fully prepared and always consider everything. However, those who are new to gambling tend to be more aggressive and hasty in gambling, so it is not uncommon for them to do things carelessly.

dont be greedy
This is often referred to as live betting or in-play betting. Engaging in last-minute wagers can indeed immerse us in the excitement of each team's performance, potentially increasing our chances of winning, albeit with relatively modest multipliers, typically around x1.1. We can assess the teams more keenly once the match kicks off. That's why many people believe they have a better chance when betting in the final minutes of the game.

It seems like many people might bet larger amounts when live betting is an option. However, to ensure your financial well-being, it's crucial to bet within the limits of your financial capacity. Because risks like an unlucky day are unpredictable for anyone.

Are there also good online platforms or betting sites that have good last minute betting options for matches/games?

sure! just use bigger betting exchange!
odds tends to increase few minutes (if not seconds!) before the match start.
In most of the case you can use also script (geek toys) that allow automated bets and several options.
Why bigger? because they need to have enough liquidity to allow odds movement.
If a game allow to bet live, it's pretty clear there is no "late" bet Wink

I guess we leave live betting behind discussing last minute bets we do. Well honestly sometimes I let myself down undecided on big matches at local league. Like odds are generally awesome and you may try to make money through only couple of matches. But wait for latest news so squad to be determined etc. I feel like decisions there should be made earlier cause last minute decisions may be influenced terribly by your emotions. You may decide to include very weird bets just to maximize profits.
And if they are used to placing bets at the last minute, they may feel hesitant when they find out that the latest news has been released. They don't feel confident in their analysis, so they might not place a bet.

Usually, I place a bet in the middle before the match starts. And if I still can't decide what to choose, maybe I won't place a bet. It can make me place bets randomly because there is the latest news about the match.

And if I placed a bet randomly, it might result in a loss because I would be completely confused by the latest news. Therefore, if we really want to place a bet on a certain match, we should be ready with the analysis and not be influenced by the latest news or not be late in placing the bet.

When it comes to betting, different people has their different strategies that really works well for them and because there's freedom to do whatever that doesn't go against terms and conditions of any betting platform, there's no time that's considered as the best or worst time to bet.
There's a stipulated time limit to place bets on any betting platform and until that particular time limit is due, I don't think there's a any time that's too late to place a bet
You are right, actually, there is no right or wrong time to place a bet, the truth is how we stick to the strategy that has become our reference, if we are used to placing bets in pre-match because we feel we have a lot of time to do analysis then we should stick to it on this strategy, or if you prefer live betting because you often find valuable odds then stay there.
I myself do both, but more often in pre-match because I rarely open a betting account when the match has started, unless it is late because I forgot the match schedule then live betting is the choice, but everyone has their own preferences and it will be different but pre-match or live betting does not make our chances of winning greater, it's just a time difference.

Are there also good online platforms or betting sites that have good last minute betting options for matches/games?

Betting services that provide a betting function for quick moments in the game exist and there are a lot of them. When I read articles on a gambling site, ads often appeared there. There was a clipping of a football match in it, when a striker like Messi ran up to the opponent's goal with the ball, and swung. This time everything stopped and two buttons appeared: "it will be a goal" and "not goal". And the service offered to choose the event that is about to happen. I think this is the fastest short-term bet that you are writing about.

I am against such bets, as they absolutely do not allow to think carefully about the situation, and I demand to make a bet faster. And I think that we should always stick to the strategy and the pre-studied circumstances of the game.

I have an experience of rush bets and unplanned bets, more like on sports betting. This occurs me when I'm still an addict, after seeing a hype match up in social media before, I'm checking the social media comments and see what's about for this fight and seeing the "analyst comments" on comment section. After being convinced, I would straight rush into a sports betting site and would bet on the team/fighter that is on favor based on the comment section. It's a bad way to to bets but it happened that there I am winning some of the bets, not entirely all bets were on the losing side but after checking my stats and average winning, it's clear that I'm on a lose by relying on this lazy rush way of betting.


When you get money from the unexpected things,So you can use that money into the last minute betting.To some gamblers the last minute bet will help to win the jackpot.So it my be the better option to use the last minute betting.Some people use to loan the money and involve in the betting with huge trust on gambling and he think he had capacity to win at the end.But he may forgot the thing,the winning in the gambling is unpredictable on that specific day.The possibility of winning in the gambling will be high in the sportsbet.But for the sports bet the gambler should have knowledge in that specific sports.

If I could remember the last time I gambled on a die minute, this was as a result of me forgetting to place a bet for an already booked game given to me by my cousin brother. When he called me a few minutes or an hour before the match started, I quickly rushed to find my Sporty Bet account, which was where the game was booked, and I had to log in to the game again.
 
Some of the games have already started, and some have changed; a few have been reduced and some have increased. I don't know what techniques were used to calculate the odds, but to cut the whole story short, this game happened to be among the few games that I have won from gambling, but the person who shared the game with me lost his. This was as a result of one of the games that was removed from the game selection due to the game already starting being one of the ones that lost on his slip, which turned out to be his own disadvantage and an advantage to me, although the amount that was supposed to be won was different for the both of us.

There's specific time for carrying our gambling activities. Having a time limit for the purpose to accomplish mechanism objectives. Considering most gamblers are unable to accept the prospect of incurring substantial loses in the system, we adjusted everything that was close to us to our benefit. Some people give up without expanding their possibilities for generating small modifications from our beginning money and techniques. We are system gamblers attempting to create prestigious returns, which means we are vulnerable to all of the system's risk factors.

The time is actually depends on your final decision and betting sides both. If you finalize your decision then you can place bet, as long as the betting side accept that. If they stop taking bets from users, then nothing to do. But i experienced, most of the time they prevent users from placing bets when the game is very near to predict accurately. Some options get vanished and only available some options to stake on a particular game according to their benefit. I think football is the most popular game where gambler place bet even on last minute
Exactly, as long as the site still allows it, then you can still place a bet but for me this is too risky and not that profitable.
In game betting is still not guaranteed though many prefer this especially when they already analyzed the game when it started.
There are also other sports where in game betting are more popular, I've tried this many times and I can say that its also good.
Again to OP, know what is good for you and you can try this as long as you are betting with the good team, you can have that profit.

I place live bets constantly most of the time when there is a special match event on play, infact, I would say that I've won more of my live bets than I've won in bets I placed before the match began proper..

But then again, the above is not to say that I've not loss live bets, I've actually lost several live bets more than I've won, yeah, I am that bad in sports predictions, most especially football, but like I mentioned above, I have won more live bets compared to normal bets..

So I would say that, I still prefer betting on live matches much more than betting on matches before they begin, though most live matches comes with very small odds, which makes winning big amount of money quite impossible.

Is quite some time since I placed a bet due to the time factor, Everybody has their strategy for betting that works for them, I also prefer placing bets before the game starts because sometimes during the game, If you don't take the time to look, you will see that the odds are no longer the same and have decreased. The majority of people have lost more often than they have won, and I don't believe that losing has anything to do with poor prediction sometimes, it's just a chance. and if you prefer live matches then it's not a bad idea if it works for you.

that is true, odds are changing when the game is already live and some betting lines will already be closed. you can see it in the list anyway. the betting lines that are already closed and lines that you can still bet or cash out before they finally closed the betting lines.
to some, this strategic betting is helpful for them because they can see the early pulse of the players' movement, how they are performing. so they can have an idea where the game is heading to. hence, some are waiting for the live game before they place their bets.
