Have tried it before, some ended well, some didn't. It's honestly all fun and games until you, well, lose. In a streak. Has happened to like twice before and after that 2nd time, I just stopped doing streaks of random guesses. I just did it once or twice every now and then and if I lose, I start thinking again. It's just really frustrating how a random bet could've been decided a LOT better if I'd given time to it. Even without knowing the sport that much, researching about the team is ultimately better than not no?

Granted it doesn't increase your chances BUT it does give you the satisfaction of you trying your best. Doesn't really work in normal casino games, that things just pure luck but in sports, stuff can be swayed that way.

Have you ever placed a bet by just doing random guesses on the outcome of the game?

I remember the first matches that I bet on many years ago which was my first bet. I did not know about football but I just bet on it. I did not look for any analyses but I just select a team to win and I won it. I was new to betting and later I know it was luck and I stopped doing that when I know more about analysing matches. Although I went for the team that has the lower odd. But if you analyze the game, it is still about luck but the chance to win will likely increase than randomly selecting.

From the title of your thread, I'll say that win most times in sport depends on how well you know the game and the players. I don't think it would be wise to place bets on random sports without even know any thing about them. You might end up making too much losses. You were lucky as your predictions went well. But in reality it wouldn't be wise to take such bets. In sports bets you have to understand the game, which would in turn enable to make good strategy to place your bets and wins.

I tried out something while I was watching some games in the ongoing Olympics and this is what I did;

I looked out for sports I wasn't conversant with the athletes and didn't know who was better at the sports and did a random prediction on the outcome of the game. I did it for swimming competition and some random boxing yesterday and out of up to 7 predictions I made, almost 6 went the way I predicted it.

It reminds me of writing an objective examination in high school and when you're done with the questions you're certain of, and you just do some random selections and luck could shine on you and you get up to 70% from your rough prediction.

I have not tried this in real games that involves using money but would want to know if anyone has ever tried it before.
