im a fan of crazy odds because i dont have a big bankroll  . with a small bankroll i have i just bet tiny and totally relly on my luck  .

 if i won , that would be a geat moment of my life but if i loss i can easily accept it  .  on lower safe odds  , we need to have to bet huge normally because the chance is higher especially if teamed up with great analysis  if its a sports betting but safer odds are killer on non sports based games because you are only rellying totally on your luck against the provable fair system of the platform  .

I wonder if you like small and safe odds or you like crazy odds with a large amount of money, here we are talking about a sports forecast.
I genuinely like crazy odds with low investment.
I usually play two tickets with a small chance of winning, but this is more interesting to me than the "safe" odds.
Do you love when you are hoping and chances are low or when you are hoping and you know that chances are high for that to happen.
An experienced bookmaker usually likes small odds (but he has analyzed those odds well before playing) with big money.

I sometimes go for the higher odds in sports betting but with low amount of money. Since unexpected does not happen in sports, i do win big amounts sometime but 70% of the time i had to lose. So the amount which i gained from high odds is almost balanced by the loss which i have to face.

I would not say that neither higher odds nor low odds make any difference, the main thing is that you should win the bet no matter it is of higher odd or lower odd.

It's a bit difficult for me to understand what Op is trying to say... Maybe because I am not too familiar with sport-betting and it's terms. From my little understanding, it seems easy-to-predict match have smaller prizes while the difficult ones have higher prizes? If that is the case, I will go for the easy matches. Will probably need lots of skills and information before trying the difficult ones.
Matches with low odds are not always easy though. Sometimes you don't need much skill or information to pick the difficult ones imo you just need to follow a strict bet size if you're going with the underdog.

You can analyze the playing before bbeting or if you are a long time sports bettor then you must know how to play the games. WhatI hate is those odds that are sometimes in favor of the losing team like 2.76 for the losing team and 1.24 odds for the winning team, if luck plays out well and you are betting on the former then good for you, will earn a lot but if not then you will have miniscule profit which is sometimes beneficial to the gambling site. Just to be clear I love sports bet but I hate the booker scheme
That's just how things end in certain sports there's really no clear favorite or just the underdogs performing better than expected. I mostly get these kind of experience in tennis so I avoid them but if I can't resist skipping a good value i'd place a small bet. Also it's not just small odds that are beneficial to bookies probably any bets they offer are profitable to them.

I think the bookies are making money on me, but I don't care, I still like high odds especially making a parlay bets.
I always understand that the risk is high of losing with high odds, but the feeling if I win is something I would love to experience as it brings fulfillment to me.
This attitude of yours shows that you are gambling for fun and thrill not exactly for making money. Playing with high odds is always risky in gambling and I will suggest you do this once a week rather than doing it all the time. Moreover, keep track of what you losing in order to avoid bankruptcy.

^ You are a true gambler if you are a high risk-taker. Because that means to them, they high odds the more money will come once they will win. As a bettor says, they dont like parlay bets because it is very risky and did not have a safe odds. But for me, once you will win it even once, that is the time you will make a huge profit from betting. Nevertheless, in betting don't follow your emotions especially if you have an idolized team. Choose the strongest one not just because you choose because you like them, not their skills even they are the underdog team.

In football gambling, there is nothing like safe odds, they are all crazy odds.

I have once this season few weeks back, play a game (Valencia handicap 0:3) and my friend valencia got beaten 4 good unreplied goals

Nothing safe, the safe way to sports betting is if you can reduce your no of games, which therefore reduces no of risks involved on the bet.

In the english premier league this season, CRYSTAL PALACE 2 - 2 MANCHESTER CITY, sports bet page legit gave CRYSTAL PALACE 13.0 good odds to draw city, and it was an easy bet.

LOts more, just try to reduce your risks, nothing like safe odds.
Its depend  to the sport ticket but I cant say its safe because all betting games have risk to take. The only thing good about it is if you place bet with a good odd then possible the luck is yours. Also you must know the strategy of betting because it can win you particularly in playing dice because playing dice seem easy to play but its not, so you must played it with strategy.

I always liked one to three teams bet with smaller odds and this has been a good experience for me so far.I have won often times tickets like these but of course in the long run I have lost more money than I have won.

I also like to try during weekends minimum amount bet for a crazy sport ticket with 10-15 games and try my luck.

I'm the complete opposite, I'm a player that goes for very high value bets, but also with a high win chance. Simply because I don't have the time for messing around with small bets and measly winnings.

For me, the win has to be significant to justify the effort, and I know this can certainly be had from small bets with low odds, but I simply don't have the time for the sheer number of bets that are needed.

Anybody else the same?

Yes, it makes sense, "goal justifies everything", you can play with a small stake of a very large odds, and again you will come up with a large amount of money if you guess.
Sometimes I play something like that, usually for the Champions League, maybe not with big money, but the odds are big.
And does it hit you to play more, or do you stop gambling a little, since when you hit, it's not a small win, it's about a lot of money.
For me its little time consuming but  its worth it because of chance to win, even you win a small amount but the fun when you played it and the big odds, I think that's priceless. In my experience I think it safe to play, but some of players don't take it seriously because they want to win big.

Playing with crazy odds with a low amount of bets and playing with low or safe odds with a high amount of bets are options every time I bet a sport, both options are very interesting to do simultaneously because then the opportunity to not lose more money can be minimized, because we can manage money to continue betting without a break if indeed bets with safe odds continue to make a profit, while crazy odds are only for a bigger luck or a jackpot that we made ourselves.

Its time consuming and not really worth for your effort and money.Yeah you can bet on those low odds but it would takes time for you on even doubling your capital.

1 loss will cost you everything or simply would eat up all of your winnings just in case theres an upset game.Come to think that not all low odds have a 100% winning rate.

It's a very bad decision to always think staking on high odds will give you a good return. It's just like dashing your money out to those betting sites. You shouldn't see gambling as a getting rich quick. Small odds like 1.5  give you 50% return on your stake. You can actually try live betting, you an analyse live games easily.

Not a bad decision, you're wrong. I do not think that it will be a big return for me, but I think it is better to give less money, for a smaller sum, but a big gain. I have never viewed gambling as a quick enrichment, but I think the higher the odds, the more adrenaline there is.
The odd of 1.5 is really good, for all bookmakers, a turning point between small and large odds in my opinion. I think she is there, and somehow she separates from the small odds, but she is not big either.
Why do you think it's easier to analyze games live?

There's always different approach with how gamblers take part with this activities and build the system that they will going to use. Lots of experienced gamblers will take small odds with much higher potentials, it's much safer if you really paying attentions with every games that you'll going to pick, knowing what is the edge and how to take that edge and convert it to profitable positions.

If you know the sports or the game and you have been closely following it, you might have your bet in mind even before you know the odds. What I mean to say is that before you even go to the betting site and place your bet, you know very well that you can give the Pelicans a plus 10 in their match against the Bucks. The odds may surprise you or not, even make you think twice, but at the end of the day your knowledge and analysis comes first before the odds. And you will most probably follow it. So it does not really matter whether the odds are safe or crazy. It comes secondary most of the time.

But I am a safe bettor. Wink

I go with safe (~1.2 odds), still you lose sometimes though.

I guess, the end results would be pretty much same, with higher odds, one would be able to recoup the losses. While in, safe odds one losing bet can make you break even.

How much you bet plays big role.

Gambling is all about taking a risk so I often do high odds on dark horses that I believe to actually have a chance. Betting on sure balls doesn't really give out the feeling of your actually gambling, more like your actually earning instead. I know I'm earning when I win with the high odd bet I did, but I didn't bet due to the money, I bet due to the risk involved. It shows me that my foresight can be that good and that gambling is, well, what it is, a gamble. Which is all that gambling is about, right?

I liked to play safe with bets for low odds and it's often to me bets for it but if the odds too low for particular match and i want to increase the odds then usually i made a parlay with combine several match into my parlay but indeed sometimes i want to bets with high odds for fun and because high odds mean high risk too then i only dare to use small amount of money

Using small amout has the lower risk but smaller winnings, that's why if you're dealing with higher risk we also need to be courageous in putting huge investments. It's good to have safety, but you won't acquire higher possible wins if you won't learn from other sides of gambling. We must take it as a serious responsibility, and when managing our money I think the best ways is the safest one that depends on how smart you are

I like it all but I mostly go for the in between, not that crazy at the same time not safe usually these odds are close to even or 1.8+. If I go for the small odds then i'll do a parlay for matches that start on the same time or do two consecutive single bets before stopping. For the underdogs that have odds above +200 I always place a small percentage sometimes increase it depending on how confident I am on the outcome to hit.

At first I didn't know about the odds so I bet on the higher odds but later did I realized that lower odds were had a higher chance of winning. After busting my coins from betting at higher odds, I now bet on the sure win teams with lower odds. Sometimes, I bet on higher odds and it won but it wasn't all the time that the higher odds will gonna win. So I advice that you bet in a safe bet. Others bet in both team and still got some profits from it.

Most people would surely bet on the moneyline.Yes, it do have low odds and we know the chances of winning is pretty high yet its heavily favored.
Thing here is that upset games do happen but on less or rare chances.For those people who do able to see or having those lucky bets or yolo bets on an
underdog will really make some good profit as mentioned these are low chances.It depends of a certain bettor if he likes low winning on high chances or big wins on low chances.
Analysis is preferable and sometimes instincts and intuition would have also a play.

I play small stakes, huge odds if I'm looking to blow one up, otherwise I'll play it safe and secure. I never had my a W ever on my crazy tickets though I have countless of times almost taking the jackpot on it. I still believe that I'll hit an 8 or a 10-event parlay and take a W on a small stakes, high odds game. It gives you the chills and thrills, too.

It's both for me. Whenever I'm prepared to bet for the small chances with a huge amount, I don't care as long as I have already set and made my mind to bet for it. If I think that there's a chance to win for that specific sports that I'll bet, why not play YOLO? it's a very common thing for gamblers. That's why we're called gamblers because we like to gamble and we play with the chances. Sometimes, I want to be sure and safe but times are coming that I want to try and test my luck and analysis if it will work for low chances.

Placing big amounts on small or big odds is usual in sports betting.

For an experienced gambler or sports bettor, we are not that type of bettors who will just place random bets of high odds just to hope for a better return. It needs a deep analyzation that might help us increase our chance to win.

That's why in a period of a month, there are only a few times that I will bet for underdogs just to hit that big return. Not all the time those high odds are interesting to place a bet. There should be something on that underdog that I want to see before risking my money to place a bet on them.

Of course as gamblers we wanted to hit that big odds and win. However, there are gamblers around with odds as @1.1++ who's willing to take it with high bet. Personally, though, I don't like safe bets, would go for a higher odds with smaller bets, I just like my chance in that way, just saying, like in horse betting (local) wherein I have successes betting on a long shot got a huge windfall from it.

I like going for crazy high odds every now and then both in sports and esports betting, though it also depends on what my analysis determines to be the better choice and then an analysis of the risk to reward of betting on the less favored team versus the overdog. Nothing's more exciting than hitting a big win from a small-sized bet on high odds, but these situations usually don't happen very often and very few pan out in favor to the underdog, though.

It depends on a game and certain matches.

Sometimes, I'm putting a decent amount @1.2-1.4 odds - (the last time was BTC0.05 for @1.4)
Sometimes, I'm putting a decent amount at higher odds @3 above

Both have the same risks. My knowledge about the game really plays a big role in my decision making. Take note that I'm just doing these types of bets if I saw a certain match to worth to put a shot. I'm not the typical sports bettor who always picks safe odds. Fortunately, my winning stats are good so far.

if you go for small bet, then you need a lot of matches to actually win something, so it is very risky, and bookmakers love that...
with higher odds, you need to pick few matches to win something big, and that could happen, with you as a winner, and it is more often the case to have serious money won with higher odds, than with safe bet

You already mentioned this, it doesn't matter to me if you are betting low odds or high odds as long you as you personally know the team to place your bet in every match. It will depend on you if how much amount of money that you are willing to risk. Go crazy odds with a large amount of possible money will be more exciting.

Sports forecast? GO CRAZYYY. Its a lot more fun. Plus, most of the teams have been introduced and analysis can be done pre games so it's all dependent on your ability to actually predict how the match will go. Of course, there's also the timing when betting towards the dark horses of some matches which actually have a chance of winning. It's a lot enjoyable in general when a dark horse pops up and wrecks a favorite to win.

I wonder if you like small and safe odds or you like crazy odds with a large amount of money, here we are talking about a sports forecast.
I genuinely like crazy odds with low investment.
I usually play two tickets with a small chance of winning, but this is more interesting to me than the "safe" odds.
Do you love when you are hoping and chances are low or when you are hoping and you know that chances are high for that to happen.
An experienced bookmaker usually likes small odds (but he has analyzed those odds well before playing) with big money.
