I've preferred a single bet, multiple bets won't give you assurance to win but most likely, it adds more losses to our part. Thus, a single bet gives the same winning chances as multiple bets because if you are lucky in our first bet might not be in the other bet we made. The same thing into making a single bet.
We are just enjoying here in gambling, having a single bet will help you stay for a little bit longer, quite different when you place several bets just a reason to make money and enhance winning chances which literally not possible.
Topic: Multi bets vs single bets - page 5. (Read 61719 times)
I would be rather curious to know how you guys bet and how you make use of singles. Do you really believe in minimizing risk when placing single bets? It's like going all-in, you basically flip a coin, either you win or you lose. If you like that, keep on playing. That's not for me. 
It depends upon the match situation, i usually go for full house if i am wagging a bet on soccer, cricket, boxing and UFC and it depends upon the level of competition and usually if place a multi bet it will be from a combination of different sports i follow, sometimes it pays off big time and sometimes you would see upsets and it is part and parcel of sporting events. 
I think there is no gambling place that provides guarantees about big wins that can be obtained, all of them have risks that cannot be avoided, even though you have a lot of practice and experience, you still can't win 100%, indeed the safe way is to make a single bet rather than bet on a lot of games that won't necessarily win.
I like this opinion but can you see it the other way, normally gambling is risky, the betting companies never gone bankrupted because 99.99% of people that are gambling are losing to them while the betting companies are gaining. If you stake a single bet, you will increase the amount you will use to stake, and nothing guarantee that you will still win, I see accumulation as the best, using very little amount of money that you can afford to lose, thinking you have lost already and seleted big odds without you thinking to win, luck could come, and if you lose, you are not depressed but still happy. 
If you use the single bets obviously the risk is very small compared to multiple bets where the risk is high.
In this way of betting there's no assurance for us to win big here, this is more likely rely on luck for real, there is no technique
here that we need to apply, of course not! all we need to practice is to minimize our loss, that's it!

And that's how gambling works, no guarantee whatsoever, a matter of luck as always, as even you have specialties on certain events there's still chances of losing.
Small or big odds, single or parlays once bad luck takeover then expect to lose your money, no one can change that fate, luck always the key factor to win.
The good catch is whenever you use parlays and you win the pride inside your heads is much bigger than hitting a single pick bet. Ain't new to anyone to try keep repeating since inside your head the chance of getting big profit rside behind multibettings.
Multi bets or single bets, it's just all about luck. Single bet can also be risky too if you go all-in.
While multi bets is also not good if you lose only once, it's difficult to recover your bet from that loss. It would take many games and there's a high chance that you would lose again recovering your losses.
You know I always prefer to put 1 unit on each bet which I plan to pick for multi bet instead of putting 1 unit on the multi bet because the chances are high that I will end up losing it. This is how I go when I feel I have a good multi bet shared from someone.While multi bets is also not good if you lose only once, it's difficult to recover your bet from that loss. It would take many games and there's a high chance that you would lose again recovering your losses.
- There are say 5 bet slips combined to make a multi bet
- I will add those 5 bets in single bet and put 1 unit on each
Now, if I was expecting to win all the 5 bets I can surely be assured that at least 3 will hit and that means profit so that is how I make my bets, not very successful but it is better than burning money in multi bet.

Of course, and that is a gambling fact. There is no guarantee that we can win any bet. Therefore, if we decide to gamble then we must also accept defeat. I also agree that the single bet is a safer way of betting on sports because the risk is less than the multi bet. But that doesn't mean we never have a chance to win if you bet multi, but the winning percentage is very small and really requires luck.So my question is whether you prefer multi bets to single bets and whether you find multi bets significantly more risky than single bets.
There is no doubt that it is very difficult for us to correctly guess several matche at once. Even if we bet on the single bet then we can't or really have a hard time guessing more matche right and I believe that. I prefer the single bet over the multi bet just because of the risk. 
If you use the single bets obviously the risk is very small compared to multiple bets where the risk is high.

The risk is always there, you are right on that, but after following this thread for some time, I've come to the conclusion that multi bets are riskier than single ones. And it's not like, the more risky your bet, the higher multiplier you get, no. You are more likely to win a single bet with 1.9 odds, than a multi bet of 3 that gives you the same outcome odds. And the main reason for that is that you can't research as thoroughly about 3 events, as you can about 1 event.
I don't understand why some of you are so into single bets. If you place single bets and go all-in I suggest you rather play a single dice roll. At least if you lose you would know that you were playing provably fair.
Once, I lost big on a single bet made on a champions league game: I was so sure of one team winning (odds were 1.12 playing home) and they eventually lost. Of course, I lost too. That's when I started playing multi bets only: I play less than $5 and sometimes I end up winning nice amounts.
No more single bets for me.

I think most of us here on the forum are trying to minimise their own risk while still trying to profit of a bet. Single bets are best for such bets in my opinion. You know exactly what kind of risk you take even though the payoffs might be lower than with multi bets. As someone who gamble and bets regularly you should never go all-in on one bet in my opinion. The risk of losing is just too high. It's best to spread out your bets across multiple different bets.
Going all in is like a desperate move of a gambler, that's not thinking the possible loss because all in the mind is just to "WIN BIG", which is being unrealistic as a gambler, and that's the reason why gamblers are losing money that they can't afford to lose.

If I prefer multi bet compared to single bet, multi bet has many advantages, for example with a small bet amount we can get a big profit but there are always risks. In soccer betting I always choose multi bet rather than single bet because the number of odds offered with multi bet is much bigger than if choosing single bet.
There's not a lot of advantage with multi bets other than combining bets that start at the same time or within the same match (also called same game parlay). The big potential profit you can get from multis isn't always an advantage since you can also do it with singles. For example if you go all in and win every single bet you'll most likely end up with the same balance as someone that placed a multi. 
The multi bet is something that interests me, so I prefer the multi bet. Indeed, a single bet with lower odds might be said to be a safe bet, although I realize in a bet it is not possible to be 100% safe but at least, if we bet single at low odds for me personally it is a safe bet. It's different if you bet multi by only placing low odds, it will still make you slip like the picture in the OP and this happens often for me personally. Actually high or low odds, multi or single bet is a choice and anyone is free to choose but for me, I would prefer to look for high odds by means of multi bets and not single bets with high odds.
You look for high odds and that is actually the sole reason why most of the gamblers are making multi bets or parlays because they pay high by accumulating small odds and stacking them into a multi.The problem with multi bet with me I always pick 3-4 good games then I add some unknown matches with low odds just to increase the odds even more and those unknown bets are often that betray me and become the reason for my loss. I also like bet builder feature recently launched by SB actually because I can make multiple selections on the same match and make a multi which is not possible on other sites yet and hopefully everyone adopts that system soon.
Sure, multi bets means higher odds of risk but also wins as your spread is greater. Even in cases where you have the house edge while the risk is greater simultaneously you also push up your odds of winning. This is a strategy in itself and if confident I can imagine to work reasonably well.
Thus, if a player doesn't feel comfortable with the idea then best not to practice it. Only copy and implement things you know will work based on knowing how you strategise and play. Better still go with the experience rather than the hope of winning. This way you will be disappointed less

Exactly, the whole point behind using multiple bets is to minimize your exposure to risk by choosing many different teams/players instead of just one...
Not just choosing many different teams/players, but teams with strong chances of winning, based on the bettor experience/knowledge/research. It'll be better to spend lots of time researching about the teams a bettor wish to bet on. This should minimize the risk for the bettor... And as the risk is reduced the bettor could aswell increase his/her betting fund a little bit. But bet with little/small amount if the risk is too much
Obviously there is an added extra risk involved with doing multi bets, nobody denies that and the math is clear about it as well. However we do also realize that we make more profit this way as well, which means we are making more profit if we win and that risk is worth it sometimes.
If I am betting on multi with just guaranteed teams for a small win, I rather not do that, it doesn't make sense to have 3 game multi with 2.6 return, that is not something worths the risk of having 3 games on my slip. However if I pick 3 games with over 7 that I could win, that suddenly becomes entertaining and yes it is riskier but it also worths it for me. So at the end of the day single vs multi comes down to what I am betting on, sometimes single makes more sense and sometimes multi makes more sense.

More on your own understanding, if you really see the potential combining bets will give you good compensations.
Lots of gamblers do parlays most of the time when they are seeing small odd with their chosen picks, in order to got something great
they are risking to see if luck will permits them to win, but likewise single bet yoloing all in same risk and same luck to wait to accompanied
your bet.
Multi bets or single bets, it's just all about luck. Single bet can also be risky too if you go all-in.
While multi bets is also not good if you lose only once, it's difficult to recover your bet from that loss. It would take many games and there's a high chance that you would lose again recovering your losses.

In soccer betting I always choose multi bet rather than single bet because the number of odds offered with multi bet is much bigger than if choosing single bet. From that I am very careful in choosing the football team that I bet on, for example I see the results of the last two or three matches and I keep checking the composition of the players so that the most important position in the standings is an important determination.
One of the pro's on playing with parlays is that you can really make that small amount to make it big but if you were able to win those bets on consecutive manner.It would really be that appealing for you to see the profit that you would make with just having that small amount of bet but some gamblers arent really that patient
to wait for and also this kind of way is a bit stressful for me when you do win the last 3 games and suddenly the 4th ones had been lost then you would surely
end up on frustration. Single bets is preferable neither you do win or lose then thats already an on point result which doesnt really need any further games.
