Topic: My sport betting journal. Build a 5 figure with a modest bankroll (Read 369 times)

That's absolutely insane!! 5 figures?!!! That seems so unreal to me. But I believe you. I can see the honesty in your post. Most tipsters, as you said, charge as many people as they can even though they have no real experience of betting. I got fooled once. I paid someone to give me some tips on betting, I paid around 100$ and guess what, he gave me a list of non-sense and when I confronted him, he blocked me. Never trust these guys. They just want to take you many. Ever since I go with my gut when I'm betting. Of course, I'm doing an analysis of the teams and their previous matches. Everything is going good so far, but not as good as you, hahaha. I'll follow you on Twitter.

The presence of regular audience will not be seen for the time being.
And that may or may not have significant impact on the actual performance on the field.
For now, you are banking on the actual strength of the team without any other distractions.
Maybe they can focus more on their game and we will see how they truly perform in the field.
In this case, the bettor should consider all aspects, like the composition of the team (as some can't play owed to covid), their known status in the game, etc.
Perhaps, that can make the match looks fair because each team uses their strength to give their best performance in the field. The field will not have a crowd because of the audience, but still, some teams will need that. Perhaps, that teams want to show off their performance in the real-life at the stadium. The team and the audience really miss that moment when they can yield freely in the field to support their favorite team.
So when you want to bet on the right team, you should know where to search for valid data from each team, so you can found the team you want.

One of the best crypto gambling journey and I know this is not an easy journey and its really rare to see someone achieve this goal in gambling. Betting is fun but its not an easy way to create money since you still need to analyze on which team you’re betting in order for you to win, well I enjoy betting before watching live but right now I don’t feel the excitement because almost all the sports are playing on a bubble and no audience at all.

Bets have become extremely riskier presently compared to older ones when there were cheerleaders, fans in support, so the team's enthusiasm always remained boosted. Now, even the worst team is winning some great games shocking everybody who bets on low odds team and loses, especially in those bets where we lose due to one bet loss in a parlay. Theoretically, you can also say btc's supply is now 210 billion but it will not change anything practically.
The situation now is different than a few years ago, and perhaps, that gives some benefits to some teams which they can play better without anything you mention. Some teams still need cheerleaders, fans in supports, and else to boost their performance. At this pandemic, each team needs to boost its performance by themselves against other teams without support from the fan in the field. I wonder what happens to @OP because it will not be easy to select the team without any of those.

thats because of the effects of the virus where people on the game are now limited or on most cases they are not allowed to enter except from the player that plays the sport but what are difference of the worst team and good teams when worst team do also have fans and supporters before but they may loose it too now . both teams performance are downgraded but they may need to adapt on this kind of gameplay if they still want to give thier best in the future games .

you have to consider that scenario when you are betting, the world has change due to pandemic so probably the past information might not be so helpful. When there's no fans in the arena, the home court advantage might not be felt by the home team, so that should be consider as one factor when you are analyzing the game. Risk is always here, but you can reduce the risk if you are knowledgeable on what you do. December 20, 2020, 05:49:05 PM

My neighbour was earning living by betting on sportsbooks (to be fair except him I haven't seen anyone in real life who has been getting some profit from betting, yeah, I know a lot of gambler and better). He was always doing bets on multiple teams and was aiming odds x50 and higher. A lot of tickets were losing but in overall, some of his higher odds were winning and finally, he was getting profit for years.
What do you think about this? Have you done something similar?
Your friend must be so focus on sports betting, I think what he is doing is a parlay bet, if he is making a living in gambling then I would say he is a legend because only few people are really making money in sports betting, though I don't know one personally. What do you think about this? Have you done something similar?
You are lucky to have a neighbor like him, maybe you can ask for some tips on how to do the same, making money in sports betting is a hard job but a very lucrative one, you can turn yourself into a financially stable person.

I agree with you OP, betting isn't easy and it requires a lot of time. Analyzing of past data: Which team was winning when there was matches between them, what was the score, how tense it was, in what conditions they are right now, who plays on the squad, where is the match, etc... Plays the important role when betting but most of the times people just bet blindly on teams that they have heard are good or they just look at odds and bet on lower ones, in reality, number of odds is the worst indicator.

Since this thread was put back to life anyway and the journal finished so abruptly a year ago, I wonder what happened with the plan. Op is still active on Bitcointalk, so perhaps we'll get a comment here of how it went. It was a long shot because the odds are pretty high on each bet and the strategy assumes the person keeps winning. Op did have a few successful bets at the beginning (when I tried a similar strategy recently I lost right away, and it was game over for me), but I suppose the reality caught up and a losing bet followed? What do you think of that experiment of yours now?
Same here , I was thinking of the same thing , honestly things like that Never works for me personally , no matter how hard I try , at the end it's all on luck and therefore ultimately I just try and participate in the ones which does have a good profit percentage and good odds in my favour.
I think since the OP haven't responded yet maybe he didn't really like the idea and changed his strategies? But at the same time he did mention that "he does not provide Gambling advice etc" which I do think is a good thing.
For the ones that are just starting, keep it easy and steady at the beginning. By giving all your money on the first few bets, you give in to addiction, and I'm sure that's not your purpose. I'll give you a tip by which I guided myself in the beginning to get a hold of how it all works, and to fair, I still use this source to this day. I'm talking about this youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmYACL3ENoaPJVNpeqsdrvQ that gives predictions about future games. It helps a great deal to do your research before putting your money on a team, I never make any move without having sufficient information.
Predictions ?
Really ?
No the octopus which became famous back in the day for the football isn't something that work out , it's by chance and at the same time I don't think anyone can predict !! They can see the information and analyze which even you can do but the positive point will be that you made your own decision on this without any bias , generally there is always a personal bias in things like this. Therefore I don't think you should go for any predictions.

Another winning pick. Currently our betfair balance is at a break even point but we still have a couple open bets. So now we can start thinking about making some money.
And i am a little excited for tomorrow. I am involved in a 2000€+ betting ticket on colossusbets and we are playing for a 800,000€ jackpot. And i have 2.5% of this ticket. So lets ship big this weekend.
i will try to post some prematch tonight as well.

I am yet to see a profitable sports bettor on the long term. As far as I know the odds are made in such a way that the sportsbooker has an edge over the bettors like on the casino games. I still don't know why would a profitable trader or sports bettor share its winnings on a forum.
it just seems a fun thing to do. I am part of a live betting group as well. We share and analyse our personal bets on a weekly basis. So i do not see anything bad about sharing winnings on a forum.

Many bitcoin sport betting sites unfortunately don’t let you choosing more than one betting line from a single event but I hope this changes soon once they see your thread.I think a betting journey is always beautiful but I don’t think hitting every bet correct from the Tottenham game has high chances to come true.Still I am taking a look at this thread and try to copy a bet or too.
you are right in any way. I havent seen one yet that that offers in game betting on the same game. You also are correct it is not easy to to hit everything correct in the same game. but that's the beauty about this way of betting and the platform i am doing that on. You have the opportunity to do full or partial cashouts. So if you have a couple correct and have doubts about remaining picks you have always the opportunity to lock some profits during the game
Yeah I actually thought none of them offer betting lines from same event, at least, never come across any in my time yet, so this is a first for me. Just to be clear, this is from colossus and you can parlay from the same event? Might look it up in a bit. Learning a new system is going to a be a huge hurdle for new punters but let's see.
My comments on system bets, I like the idea initially, but it's too much management for a casual punter like me. The thing is I seldom include anything in my parlay that I wouldn't otherwise bet on anyway -- a parlay is simply me going for both bets but on one hand.
What do you think of the cashout option too, curious to know if that plays into your system. I never use it, and my main matches are in EPL where last minute goals are common (and cashouts tend to be worth nothing past 70th min). Or is that not even an option for your method?
Not colossus. Colossusbets only offers jackpot pools on sports. The platform i use to put multiple selections on the same game is on Betfair.com. But other platforms like for example Bet365 also offer this kind of betting.
So betfair.com and bet365 are 2 bookies i am 100% sure they offer multi betting on same event. I will keep you updated if i find more.
About the cashout options. I do not use cashouts very often. It depends on the odds of the remaining games and that for example the starting line up changes closer to the game or a player gets injured which affects the probability of the game.
I must admit if i use cashout option it mostly is during the colossus jackpot bets. Sometimes they offer very good cashouts during the progress of 1 of the tickets.
