Agreed, it is not with investment alone even with gambling diversified pattern helps in making big wins than losses. If not at least can get back the capital. As in the quote rather than choosing a low odd and losing it is good to go with higher odds. In such scenario it is possible to eliminate loss if both the teams are almost equal in their performance and possible only with live betting.

This is a good strategy (or at least the half part of it) but only if its live bets where the match already started. Look for good teams who can hold their lead comfortably with low odds then roll it on another live match. For the all in part of the strategy I agree never put everything a single bet because it usually lose no matter how good the bet is.

Sports betting is not luck based and person that has good knowledge of the sports he used to bet for, can definitely win most of the times but still considering this fun activity as a job is not very wise. It will definitely give some good amounts but there comes a time when people get bored from such activities. Gambling of all sort is just a game and should not be confused with an income source.

Only bet when your favorite team plays, that's a wise move too, but that way you can't place many bets in one week, i mean our favorite teams don't play each week.

Maybe this is a good way to bet in sports like UFC, that way we have multiple games in a short time.

That's my technique..lol.. you must have look at my betting thread if you are a fan of NBA.



Bro, if you want to consider sports betting like a job or a profession, you need to be serious with it, and I can only tell that you are serious if you are willing to risk a decent amount of money. Believe, your betting style will change if you bet a decent amount as you will be careful and you will really give more time to analyze your bet.

just stick to one game per day, that's my technique and its been working thus far for me.

Yeah that's the fact, I also prefer matches that have bets. But for sports betting I agree with the opinion of @GreatArkansas where it is better to single bet because I myself do not know too much about sports games or team strength except the games and teams that I like, so I only play when my favorite team plays, it will add confidence yourself when gambling.

Hey! you didn't mentioned straight bets.

I am not against martingale or double your bet when you loss but I found it not working for me.
The game is slow but you will enjoy it if you are watching the game live or your live TV, that's the beauty of sports betting.

Also, its more fun if you will put a decent amount and just choose a small number of games every time you bet.
maybe 1 or 2 games per day, that's enough already since what you do is just find the best game that you like.

Not all of us are fan of a certain sports, we bet on sports that we really feel we know because we think we have a great chance.
For me, a straight bet with good bankroll management is effective.

I have simple method which is i used for repeatable that i was bets only for strong teams and because usually the odds for them very low then to increase the odds usually i combine all of them into a parlay but as parlay too risky because if we lost one match then the parlay which we made also will automatically lost then do not putting more than 3 matches into the parlay so this can minimize you to lost your bets and this method works for me plenty

Yes, but I think it's not a good practice as gambler, you should need a limit, and control your emotions. Like, you don't need to aim to be rich in just one night.
You should have goal and control. Growing portfolio healthy is much better than growing it with huge spike upward or downward because there's a huge possibility you will get rekt in a short span of time. Becareful.

That's how to parlay is supposed to be.

The advantage is, we can receive a nice profit out of those low odds. Isn't it nice that in case we aren't sure taking the odds of 1.5 above to feel the profits, we have the opportunity to take profits even at low odds in the parlay form?

Not a good idea to put all-in in favorites to expect profit. Even chances are high that we might win taking that bet, it's more painful to lose in a low odds compare to high odds. That bet needs a deep analysis since as mentioned above, upset really happens in sports.

I'm not surprised with the x1000 but for BTC0.001, kind of hard to believed even that's real. That guy is so lucky.

As a sports bettor, honestly, there are really times that I found it difficult to nail a set of my parlays even I will put hard analysis on it as games are unpredictable. Aside from that, even I'm sure with my set of parlays, upset does happen and it will spoil my analysis. To achieve that x1000, odds should be high and to the point that the amount used is just BTC0.001, I'm curious with the set of odds placed by that guy.


Honestly, it depends on our own preferences.

As for me, my single bet should just play around the odds of @1.5 - @1.8 (my considered fair/safe odds) and for higher than that, that's what I called odds that is worth to put some risks. I don't know but I really want to play with high odds sometimes but I will just do that if I'm really sure that it has a high chance to happen. Currently in my whole sports betting experience, the highest odds I've won in a risky odds is @8 in NBA for the championship when Cavaliers was down by 3-1 against the Warriors last 2017 NBA finals (@5+@3). After that, I've been a fan of taking high odds or putting a decent amount in low odds (maximum @[email protected]).

No need to rush for that "real profit" since what matters here is, we should maintain our winning stats. Way better than risking against the casino's house.

We have to agree that when playing elite competitions, it is impossible for a casino to cheat. The more you play sports betting, the better you will be, the better you will analyze and get more hits. But of course before a good analysis, you will have a period of learning about sports betting. Play one casino that suits you to learn the possibilities of games and how you can play games. He recommends that if you play football or basketball, playing goals or points is much safer and better, and it is harder to hit the winner.

Would be nice to see that it was real fact by showing screenshot or maybe betID if it was happen on online casino so we can check it.
It is just very rare for people to make a parlay bet with that high odds. The bet must be contained of so many matches with high odds each.
I wonder what kind of sports, wonder whether it was just a random selection or his friend did it with analysis.

1 Bitcoin from a 0.001 bet? really? tas was a nice jackpot, to get that multiplier in a parlay you need to bet a lot of underdogs and to have the luck in your side... It was a great profit but isn't that kind of bets to win day by day.

Do you friend has a screen shot of that parlay i would like to see that bet.

Beside from what you said, you can also placed a small bet on parlay which have big multipler. Although it's not easy to win, but if you are lucky, you can turn your small amount to huge just from 1 parlay. (I've a friend who won 1 btc from 1000x multipler in parlay games with 0.001 btc as bet only)

What about strategizing on what sport/team you are going to pick. So, for example, I have a basketball game that I will watch, then I would decide on a side on who would win at the end of the first half. I'm not exactly sure what site supports that now, but I know some sites adjust odds live when the game is currently continuing. Since it's still season in NBA, I think it's still unlikely on them that there will be certain situations where it turns around right at the end.

I do think this is not ideal but the fact that I'm letting their fate decide on themselves if that makes any sense is why I think of doing this. It makes me more confident in my picks because there is already a sneak peek of the ending during the game. Don't take this as advice, please — just a thought.

One thing I like to do with all types of betting is to place low bets on games where odds are greatly skewed towards one side and I've determined through my methods of analysis that there's at least a somewhat significant chance of the underdog beating the overdog, and I typically place a low to medium bet on the underdog and watch the game. Parlay's indeed a great way to go if you're seeing a few games that aren't too special on their own in terms of odds, though I usually only parlay a few matches and not more than five or six. I mostly enjoy underdog betting because it spices things up while you're watching the match, yet there's also not a ton of money at stake so there's not a whole lot to worry about.

Thanks for all your replays guys, i have learned the right way to go...

One option is to play one bet on low odds and if it wins then do it again with all in, another option is to place big bets in one game, but play it to a 'Secure game', And another option is to place small parlays and use the profit to play in other games in the casino.

So, there are lot of ways to do it, thanks again for your comments.

Sports is a competency against the other player sometimes for representing their own countries, but some of the arena there is a gambling house that supports the waging and betting to those two players or teams playing the game. To be of success in this sports betting you need to have a lot of knowledge and techniques how does the player or the team plays, by these you can use those data and predict who will win the game, after that, you can also earn more profit on just knowledge in sports.

Most of the time where bettors would always aim on money line bets even though odds arent really that big but somewhat it do give out big chances on hitting up the pot.For faster profitability then theres no doubt on that parlays would be also a considerable choice but only good for 3-4 games imho and going beyond these numbers arent really that worthy to try on unless if you can handle up the risk. I have tried martingale but i can say that this wont work anytime on sportsbetting yet we know odds arent the same anytime and also on games we do bet on.
