Topic: Single or accumulation, which one do you prefer when it comes to sport betting (Read 600 times)

Those who have very huge amount can stake as high as hey want on single cause that's how you really get profits from them, but personally I make my picks with accumulation so I can get up to 10 odds or 5 odds and I stake on it. I don't have the eyes for playing or selecting the right big odds so I don't trespass my area of luck

There is some slight difference on accumulated and single bet, all depends on the amount you are putting in. In single bet you take your time and predict carefully with a reasonable amount, you will have the chances of winning than accumulating. The only way I would advise someone to proceed on accumulating If the amount you are using is not too much. You can start trying your luck with accumulating to raise much money but if you have a good amount, I wouldn’t advise it to accumulate a bit because the risk may be high but sometimes people really win in the accumulation but I don’t see it to be a good idea, when you bet single the chances of winning is more than accumulating.

Teams that are not favored usually have bigger odds. If you bet on them, you will get big profits if they can play surprisingly well, but choosing them is very risky because teams that are not favored usually perform worse than the favorite team. Besides in fact the factor of playing at home does have a slight influence if the team that is not the favorite is usually able to give a surprise in front of its supporters. Because sometimes teams that are not favored teams don't always perform badly, there are times when they perform impressively and it is surprising that betting on them is a little tempting with big odds, but we also need to be careful if we want to bet on a team that is not the favorite.

Yes, it's true that to choose a team like that, we really need to make a single bet, don't make it one with an accumulation bet because it will be very risky, after all, choosing a single bet with the odds they have also provides tempting profits, but you also have to be prepared if your bet loses because of a loss team like them is not surprising knowing that they are not a team that is favored by bettors, but if a team like them wins, their victory is also a painful blow for most bettors who prefer to bet on favorite teams.

If you know that other games has a potential for winnings why not take the risk, i do tons of betting too to earn profit but sometimes i made a single bet if I would like to focus in the game especially with the sports betting and one of my favorite team will play i will do a single bet, but if its a potential game event like in e-sports betting most likely consecutive games queued every game and I see a potential winning ill do groups of bet.

For me, I think it really depends on the set of matches that are available for the day. If there are a lot of games, then maybe go for a parlay so you can hit big with just a small amount of money. If there's few, then maybe go for single betting. Also, gamblers preferences could be a factor.

For me, if you want a high-risk, high-reward type of bet, then go for parlay, as it can give you a lot of profit by betting on multiple games. The downside of this is that if you lose that parlay, your bet is automatically lost, which is kind of frustrating, especially if it is only one game. Single betting, on the other hand, is low-risk but can give you a profit (it really depends on how much you bet). A single bet is more safe because you only have two options: either you lose or you win, a 50-50 chance. Comparing it to a parlay that includes a lot of games, a parlay is more risky than a single bet.

But at the end of the day, it is really up to you. Whatever strategy you use, make sure that it will work for you.

Betting on underdogs as a single bet may even look more risky because such bet comes with big odds and little change of winning. Although sometimes it looks like bookmarks are trying to deceive gamblers with this odds.

Well, I think that when you try to do things better, when it is with a particular game, if the analysis that can be done is detailed, you can study the squads much more in the case that it is football, but when it is multiple games, It is difficult, even if we know a lot about football games, what the players are like, what they do and everything, it is something we must also consider, at this moment things can turn out to be very different, when We think about doing any kind of thing in a casino, with the sports bets estio parlay if it is betting a lot on luck unless you are very monster and things happen in favor of our bets, but I think that it is very duifúcuk I prefer a thousand Sometimes doing things well with a team or a soccer game that with 5 or 6 more, it is difficult to predict the result that they will be favorable, it is something that seems difficult to me, however there are people who like that, when it is sun only sport that is known, even so it is hard.

When other sports are combined , I think that there it is Throwing luck , it is like Entering a casino , because it is very Difficult for things to happen , because in particular I have always said that making sports bets has to do it with great wisdom and sometimes leaving aside feelings and similar events so that they do not influence, but when we see things from another point of view, we can predict that it is possible that things with sports betting are easier to win. To the player who in a normal casino game, like slots, or a machine where4 always give themselves the chance to win under the respective luck, that is why I have always said that when casinos and sports bets are united into one, they are a great combination, this is what we can give as a good Option to do at all times , of Course for me Sports Betting has a lot to do with Knowledge.

I have done that in the past with number of bets as experiment but it doesn't work.

IMO, this is not all about the betting odds, it's about our chances of winning. When you bet on the underdog and you are confident they'll win, then your expectation is high that they will win, unlike with parlay, (at least 2 legged), where even if you are confident you'll win, but you need to win 2 bets for your ticket to be graded as win. We maybe thought that because the odds is low it will win easily, but there's no guarantee on that, otherwise we will be just betting based on odds solely and will not anymore do some analyzing of game.

I have also been a part of this feeling. Underdogs have very big odds against their opponents sometimes as big as 25 to 30 odds are given to them against their opponents probably with 1:70 odds, so it is really tempting not to go for the underdog especially when they have been in shape lately, I do give it a try and I have won some big odds in the past against small and favoured opponents.

There is a better way to bet on big odds and that is to bet it as single. They accumulate them because they are of high risk already, so it is better not to accumulate too much of risk together. Playing the big odds as single, you also have the potential profit to encourage you to go on it as a single game.

Single bet if I bet on underdog, parlay if I bet on favorite.

I do that because when you bet on underdog, the odds is already big if you win. While favorite has low odds and I'm not satisfied when I only earn small profit. Personally I'm more excited to see an underdog pull an upset since if the favorite is win, it's nothing surprising.

That happened for so many sportsbettor that they only need one win with that parlay and that's the twist goes along with them and it sucks when you go through with that.

That's why with single bets, you don't have to think of any other bets but just that bet only that you've casted. There are no catches and if you win, you win and if you lose, you're just going to accept it lightly.

If you have a lot of money and you want to experiment the accumulated bets, it is your choice as long as you're aware of how it's being played on.

It depends on how much you have to risk, but I personally like betting on a single match than more because your chances of coming out with a positive result will be higher, the more games you place bet on, the more you are expose to the chances of loses.

You will always be so close to winning millions when you bet on 5 or 7 games at once, and that's all there is, only very few people got really lucky with multiple matches and all prediction come like they predict, but you don't have to deal with this if you choose a match or two max.

The reason why people choose many matches at once is greed, they want to make all the money in a day, this greed is what locked many peoples luck away from them.

single or accumulated bets depend on one's strategy and abilities. there are those who prefer to bet single and go straight all-in because they are sure that the team they choose in the match will win. but there are those who choose accumulated betting because they are more confident that in some of the matches they bet on there will be some winners. so it depends on the gambler whether they prefer single or accumulated bets, but for me personally i prefer single bets because i don't gamble that often and my money is also limited lol.

Yeah, I think it's better to go for single bets as we go on accumulation, risk goes to the top as well. And it's really very frustrated to see that let's say a parlay bet on your side with a odds of 100x and you are about to hit or just waiting for a game to win. And you think that your chances are high as the last leg of your multiple bet is a favorite.

Unfortunately, bad luck strike you, the so called favorite turns out to lose that game and as a result ruining your multi leg bet.

And so it's better to just bet single, when it win then bet again and try to roll it and see how you can go that far or if you win then stop at least you have make good profits from a single bet rolling it over.

Even without the poll, it's fine and it seems that many are preferring the single bets than accumulated because it doesn't did you that much risk when you do it.

Why having a poll won't make sense? Because whenever I see threads that has poll and there's a voting, there's not that much people that participate on it.

And it's just like you can count on fingers that are participating and voting with such polls but maybe on this topic, I could be wrong and many will vote.

As a fellow sports bettor, will it bring something to you if you learn what's the most preferred by most bettors here?

Or generally, just want to know the pulse of the community regarding how they place a bet in their respective sports betting activity?

Just keep it simple and choose what's the best and most effective based on our preferences. Others are doing great betting in a single bet and others want to try their luck at doing multiple parlay bets for much-boosted odds. If what is effective for us in the long run, then I should say we just keep doing it.

I play both and so, it’s safe for me to say, am always quite confident in the single bets than the accumulation bets. It even gets more disappointing when you lose on an accumulation bet than you would say for the single bets. This is often the case due to the amount of energy one has to put in on making the predictions and in many cases. Most of them do play out until one rogue prediction messes up the whole pick.
Single bets gives you a chance to be at your best on a game but, you’ve got to go huge to make any worth of your prediction. That’s a safe place to play I tell you.
So yeah, it’s easier to choose the single bet if you’ve got the funds for it over the accumulation bet.

Thanks so much for the observation. I think creating a poll alongside with this post can easily make us people's view. I will definitely make a poll with it now and will love it if all that has responded to this post will try to vote in their opinion on this.

I also agree with you, because when you play plinko plaster games, the results are immediate, I think all this has a lot to do with the playing style of each player , you don't have to be very Emphatic to know if People have an ethos of gambling where they have to make accumulated bets, personally I don't like that, the most Accumulated thing I can talk about that sucks is when I make a soccer bet I have to wait for the day to arrive , something like that. That's just what it is for me, but basically when it's a casino things are always very radical, I know people who all the time go to a physical casino if and only if they have slots, because they are very thin on the slots and for They don't mind making bets that involve or involve sitting there for up to 12 hours in a chair, that's something that I really wouldn't have the Patience to do something like that.

When things come to light to make any kind of move in sports betting , I always favor doing things with betting in a very peculiar way , I only bet when I have a very strong decision about a team or about a fight. In particular, because I also like to bet on boxing and any other sport like the UFC, so based on this I am not a big fan of these sports, maybe sometimes that helps me, because I get information from Everywhere , that's what that I like and that is why I am passionate about it, in this order of ideas I will always prefer to do things like this, never bet on betting without knowledge or leaving everything to chance alone, because I consider that I am failing Myself , it is like trading, you can never trade as if it were gambling , because you can be very lucky in a moment, but that can end and bye there is nothing to do , for that reason we must always do things with a lot of responsibility , in all Activities You have to have a lot of Responsibility.

From my perspective, I do not see the point in accumulation. I prefer single bets.

OP probably should have created a poll for this thread. Since there are only two possible answers expected from the community...

From a mathematical perspective, it would seem to be safer to single bet than to accumulate. But it should be up to you, and your own unique betting style. Some people would rather go into a higher risk but higher profit kind of style of gambling. And I must admit that I myself have sometimes tried accumulation bets in the past, just for the hell of it, even knowing there was a higher chance of losing everything. But I think that there is nothing wrong with that as long as it is something that you enjoy and you do not overdo it by betting ridiculous sums of money.

Accumulated bet for me too. I prefer playing longer games than just one single bet and test if I am super lucky. Based on experience, that doesn't happen to me a lot of times, winning in one sweep is always avoiding me. Although I do like single bets in sports gambling I also do parlays but not putting too much money in it. I once had a good win in a long parlay and I can say it was damn satisfying. But, it does take a lot of time analyzing games, stats, and history before I hit that. That's the good part with sports betting, you can increase your chance of winning by doing your own research and also by following the game that you love.
Casino games on the other hand is such a messy game. I've been playing Keno and Plinko and it's like a roller coaster ride, winning and then back to losing like you are being played by the gambling sites' system. One thing I've learned in casino games, is if you play longer (accumulated bet) there's a chance you will hit a multiple win or a chance to lose all your money if it won't happen as early as your balance can accommodate.

Multiple bets is higher in risk since the possibility of one or two of those games may go against your predictions,  this is why we have to independently check the risks and choose which is best for us,  and if you must look at multiple odds accumulations you must be very active and ready to use cashout for better ending if not you can easily lose your total bets.

But single bet also has their own risks and conditions,  and even though the risk of losing the bet with a single bet is also high but less high than multiple bets you are put under pressure to stake a higher amount on a single bet compared to the amount you stake on multiple odds to accumulate a good reward ithe n payout.

As a small gambler who have small budget to gamble, parlay bet is the best choice for me because I have the possibility to win big with small bet amount only although the risk is higher and the winning chance is small. The feeling of winning parlay bet with big odds and small bet amount is better than winning big amount with single bet but the bet amount is big as well. Although I'm not playing sports betting much, but I do parlay bet most of the time when I see there are some good matches that I understand (at least a bit).

I use both but placing single bets are easier, quicker and the results are instant. I do them mostly on football and cricket games.
I do parlay on tennis where the odds are too low and combining a few would give better results. But the gambling result would depend on the result of each games.
Among them the first one is the goto for most of the sports gambler as most of the time emotions are attached to the game and bet. People bet for their team or player and they don't care about a small rise on the odds because the result of the game is more important than the bet itself.

Yes, this type of bet is different in that it provides also different benefits. Accumulation bets provide bigger profits than single bets, but the risk of losing is also large, so sometimes gamblers will think carefully if they want to bet on accumulation because gamblers always think about the risks, but in fact both are equally risky but sometimes accumulation bets make gamblers feel anxious about all the results of their choices. In many cases, gamblers experience more losses when accumulation bets are different from single bets, in single bets you choose several bets, not all of them lose, maybe only 1 or 2 lose, the rest you still get a profit if you choose more than 2 and single bets.

That's better because you avoid the risk of big losses, that's the good thing about accumulation bets. If we are ready to look at the bets we are playing, we can withdraw profits without waiting for the match to finish because sometimes if we wait until it's finished we will actually lose. Because usually if you wait until the end, if you accumulate bets, there will definitely be a blunder and in the end it can thwart our bet.

If you're a regular gambler, then you will know about this two facts to why accumulated bets is more preferred to most gamblers, the first reason is the increased tendencies of earning more and having higher odds to your best, the second is to have a combination of games and to help blend the fun of being entertained while taking bets on more than two games while gambling, since gambling is all about being entertained, we couldn't wait to see anything resisting us from having multiple combinations while staking our bets in other to have more fun while gambling.

I can speak from experience that single bets has its own risk and accumulated risk is a combination of single bets. A single bets has a two options which is to win or to lose and as soon as the game is played, you are done and you know what's up with your result but accumulated bets has twice the amount of single bets depending on the numbers you have stack together. If you accumulate two single bets, you have twice the risk of a single bets and if you have three single bets accumulated together, you have three times the risk of a single bets and so on.

The one I prefer is a single bets, with this type of bets you can select an option and expect the outcome the pretty fast and if you win, you are good to go into the next bets but with accumulated bets, if you stack them together; it means you expect all go win and a situation where you predict all and the rest win only for the last one too fail you will be really painful you know. Though, to enjoy single bets, you must have a lot of money at hand to enjoy it so that you don't get tempted with urge to accumulate odds.

I prefer single bets for the reason that I don't want to add more deep thinking and analysis if I turn that slip into multiple bets at once.

I will just consider accumulated bets if, I want to try some risks and if I see some bets that are worthy of placing a bet.

Aside from that, if I do accumulate bets, I'm more of taking a set of underdog sides compared to doing a parlay of those within "safe odds" since we do accumulate bets in the first place to boost the total odds. I don't understand what's the sense of risking it on the set of safe odds that cannot even assure us that it's already a sure win.

Single bet or accumulation in sports betting has different understanding, both are different features and also the benefits are varied, so are the risks varied.

My understanding is that if you believe in accumulation betting, of course you can add the value of your bet during the game, within a certain time, but the risk is still high, because you are adding the value of the bet to a certain team to get good results, As far as I know, if you are sure that your bet can win, maybe that is better for you, for me it is not a high risk, I have tried it when both teams drew, I made an accumulation bet on a team that I was 100% sure would win, the fact was that in the 90th minute+ the opposing team scored 1 more goal to make it 2-1, the accumulation disappeared.

Different from single bets, from the start we only focus on one choice, winning and losing is already a risk, but I like to do it and many bets are successful, for me I prefer single bets.

Which one is profitable? There's no such thing as that. You just have to play those both right regardless of the bet option.

Both have pros and cons and of course, expect that you have to play with the odds here.

Stacking bets within for let's say odds ranging from 1.2 - 1.5 is still risky. Maybe just stick with the one you really preferred.

Your analysis is correct, and we need to pay attention to the correct odds when we bet on single bets. I usually bet on both, accumulation may provide more profits, but also remember that the risk is also increased.
I do both, but more often I bet single. I don't bet on many matches, only a few that I'm interested in. Sometimes some place single bets but place large amounts because they believe in their chances of winning.

As long as when placing a single bet, we don't use a lot of money to bet, it's still safe, and we won't experience a lot of losses if we lose. That is the amount we can accept if we lose so we will not exceed that limit. Risking all the money to get a bigger win is not worth doing because we will run out of money immediately and not be able to place any more bets. So placing single bets or accumulation bets is no problem as long as we can place bets with the money we can afford so that we won't experience losses we can't imagine.

The high probabilities of winning with single bet doesn't assure you with profit. Odds of this single bet mostly determine. Bet place on singles with odd more than 2.00 may give profit if you won half of the game played (assuming winning 2 games out of 4 predicted). But in cases where single bet are placed on small odd, you may even be at lost if one of the game loses.

Single bet is the only kind of betting that I have ever done when it comes to sports betting so I guess I am not gonna risk all the winnings to win more and the Parlay is more like going all in after every winning streak in dice or crash game even though you realize that the chances of losing all the previously won rewards just over one loss.

It depends on the level of risk you are willing to take and your confidence in the games that you are willing to bet on. Single bets are less risky than parlays because when you make a single bet, you get to have the reward at the end of the game and that's it, but when you are playing a parlay, you will have to wait for the results of all the matches or bets that you've made and a single lost bet will cost you the parlay and the money is gone for good.

So, I would say it depends on the knowledge and experience and the level of risk a bettor is willing to take. I would only do parlays if I knew that I was going to win or at least have way more chances of winning than losing. Otherwise, I would go with a single bet while having a higher bet amount on a match that I'm confident about.

Yes you are correct we can't totally rely on any of this bet because they all work with probability and if the luck isn't there we can still find it difficult to achieve a winning even though is the smallest odd we can still lose them therefore there is no assurance in single or multiple bets.
Just that with multiple bet combination we can have a high odd with no specify winning chance and is 50/50 base game.

Single bet over accumulated bet or parlay. We are gambling with chances here and single bets have bigger chances of winning compared to accumulator.

Accumulator may look attractive mate but you have a very slim chance specially if you'll increase the parlay legged.


Here's a real picture of parlay and its chances.
https://frontpagebets.com/betting/basics/parlays/article_b50cc0d6-14f2-11ee-beaa-67c28cd71cb6.html

It does have different risks and it depends on how big we are going to place the bet. We can do it as long as we can accept the risk, whether a single bet or an accumulation bet. If not, we can just place a single bet. Otherwise, we will experience more losses. However, some gamblers are more interested in placing accumulation bets because of the factor of getting bigger wins than if they placed a single bet. It also depends on a person's habits in placing bets because I know some friends are more comfortable placing single bets, and they never want to place accumulation bets.

If we have the skills, we can place any bet and hope to win. But those who don't have good skills hope to get big wins by placing accumulation bets and that's normal. Apart from that, we also have to focus on the bets because of the large number of bets we place. Most people don't know what they are doing but still do it because they are tempted by the big wins they can win. But that won't always happen, especially since this is gambling. So we should only place bets with money we can afford.

Single bet for me as I’m not a pro on sports and I have limited time to analyze a match which I can place a bet. Parlay is really more profitable than single bet but it takes a lot of courage and analysis skills in able to become successful to this.

Placing a parlay bet while you have meh analysis skills suicidecrazy bets. Single bet is still the best for mediocre gambler in sports betting. Mediocre gambler dominates the sports betting game so single bet will probably the winner on this discussion unless many suicidal crazy bettor here.  

PS: Change the word suicide to crazy just in case someone salty read my comment wrong.

I mostly place single bets. Parlays are good but risky. And because I don't do extensive research on my bets as I'm betting small amounts and only for fun, the risk is higher. Also, I'm only betting on one or two odds every now and then.

I mostly do parlays during NBA playoffs. As far as my experience is concerned, the disappointment is high especially if the only game that causes the entire parlay bet to crumble is a big upset. I once had a five-leg parlay that didn't win only because a team that has the highest probability of winning was defeated.

I believe that like some I also prefer the single bet

Of course, i know the risks are lower and you have fewer worries... while in accumulation it is clear that your gains are greater, but there are several other variables that you need to worry about, especially the risks!!
In my opinion, single bets are practical and simple, another point that I also find relevant is that single bets are a great way to increase your profit in general.

All my precious time I spent in playing accumulated games in sports betting, I only won about 5-10 of my games I can't vividly recall the exact number, most of my slips then used to end up with cut one and so annoying, when I started seeing more wins was when I switched to single betting and since then I hardly stake accumulated games but on occasions.

The choice between making a single bet and accumulating bets depends on personal preferences, risk tolerance, and the level of analysis put into the betting strategy. I put accumulating bets on easier predicting games with small odd each. It's like a waste putting single bet on a game with small odd.

Accumulating bets allow you put a bet with a small amount of money. You have the potential to generate higher returns with the same initial investment by accumulating bets. Single bets are straightforward and easier to manage. There is no need to track multiple events simultaneously. With a single bet, you can concentrate your analysis and research on one event, potentially leading to more informed decision-making.

I typically do single bets. I want to look each alone with the bets that I do and that's why I like it doing one after the other before placing new bets. I agree to the suggestion about if you don't have much money and you just typically want to gamble it, say lose or win, do it on a parlay bet. That's like where your luck is going to be determined and shall see if you've made it or not. Small amount but potential high win. I don't go into parlay honestly but I see friends of mine that are liking it. That's why I am steady on single bets which is definitely I am having fun with and my mind is only one bet to think of.

People who are more likely to play accumulated bets are gamblers who who will use little money to try to win much. They loose a lot to the benefit of the betting platform, and only rarely win.

Single bets with a good amount of money increases a gamblers chance of winning the betting platform.

I personally prefer single bets, and accumulated on rare cases when the games are less than three.

Both has its own risk and the amount of possible loss could still be managed by the amount you will be betting. Accumulated bets is harder to win but will give you bigger returns using small capital. With single bets you may lessen the risk of losing due to low odds, but cannot expect big in return if you won't be putting big amount in your bet. On my end, accumulated betting is a better option; risk is higher but you won't have to lose that much unlike with single bet that you will be needing to increase its size to get a desired return amount. If you know the sports you are betting for, then bigger odds would still possible to be reached. It is lower odds which is more fearsome to go all out with.
Nothing works consistently in gambling. Let's say you won 9/10 matches with single bets and your total earning is $200 from a capital of the same amount on each bet (just an example). Now given that profit won't be big with small odd single bet, the winnings could be erased with one single losing bet. High rolling amount and low rate of return and this is the opposite of accumulated bet wherein you could lose $200 on 9 bets but earning more with a in a parlay bet due to odd multiplier.

In my opinion, smaller accumulators are better than big accumulators or vice-verse. I don't do accumulators at all unless they are played at different times so I can place single bets on the exchange but roll the full returns of each bet on to the next. I missed out on one game some weekend ago on accumulations, I was so pained, missed out on a fortune, needed 3 goals in one of the club matches during that game and finished two nil, had a decent cash out offer but thought I'd brave it for once, ended up losing a lot of money.

Accumulation is the better one? I will say no that it depends. If you want to gamble with very small amount of money, you can go for accumulate and be expecting loss. If you want to gamble with higher amount but also it should not be high amount of money but small, but in a way bigger than the one you used for accumulation, you should go for single bet. Single bet is better though but not that better than accumulating like 2 to 3 matches, but if the accumulation is getting longer, accumulated bet is not better at all in this regard.

Speaking about parlays then it wouldnt really be always talking about on the money that you could really be able to get or odds that you could be able to hit but also there are bettors who do really like to see those consecutive win and would be telling to themselves that they had made out the right call but it cant really be denied that when it comes to parlays or multiple bets then those potential winnings which it is really the main reason on why most bettors are really that interested into it which you can really be able to win up some big money out of those peanuts but it will really just that depending on how many games you are really that
setting it on. The higher the number of games the higher potential winning but of course the feeling that it could give when you do bust up that last bet of that parlay could give out that kind of nightmare feeling. 

When it comes to choices then it would really be that determining into your funds on which if you could be having those single bet with all in type of bet or having those accumulation
on which it would falls down into someone's preference in the end of the day.

Single bets and accumulated bets are not the same because one has lower risk and one has high risk, one has potential to give you huge return and one has potential to give you less return. It's more like the lower the risk, the lower the return for single bets while accumulated bets has higher risk with higher return. Single bet can only have high return when the risk is high. In some bookies, you can bets that a particular player will be the one to score the first goal and you will have a single bets with high odd but of course it will have high risk because such might not happen.

If you place bets on accumulated odds, you can make huge money and recover quickly from loss but they are hard to achieve but when you do, you will recover all you have been losing to the bookmakers. Playing a 100 odd games a day with over 2.5 in some matches might be hard but in a month, if you are serious and very good at predictions, you can make that in atleast twice in a month and after calculations, you might lose 28x and win 200x, subtract that from your profit and loss, you will have 72x profits. This is only possible if you know what you are doing.

Single bet always had the high probability of winning but it will require you to stake very high since there odds are usually small sometimes if you don't have enough cash in your balance you will stake and have very little cash out that's why you need to combine multiple bets to at least boost your odds to have a good pay out, what I noticed again is that having small odd doesn't really matter what counts is consistency inasmuch as you have a small odd you can keep gambling go increase your balance but sometimes it doesn't work that way we may plan it.

I do agree that accumulation is the better one. I just feel like it is a lot more fun to have that kind of odds, we are talking about very very low chance to win, like 10% or lesser, and that makes it more fun for me because you do not have to win each one, you just need to win a certain amount and you make a profit.

I can lose 5 times in a row, and win on sixth and I am still in profit, which is why it's so great. Plus when the odds are that low, you think that it's like rare that you would win, but that's usually on favourites. You could have teams that have 1.20 to win, that is almost like a sure thing, but bundle 10 of them together and you have a great return on your bet, so it's really a fun thing to bet on, and I like doing that.

I think it depends on personal option. Because single bet is less riskier compared to multiple. In multiple its just like predicting the impossible. Or you can say that the percentage is %50 50 in single bet. why multiple is %80 20 which is almost impossible to win or more difficult to predict.

I place both types of bets, it all depends on the odds and the matches

In the past I bet only on single bets, when I tried multiples I only lost, so I focused on single bets, but after studying some championships better, I found good opportunities and a great championship to bet on multiples.
I'm getting good results this way, so it always depends on the situation

I practically only bet on soccer/football, and the league I've found the best opportunities for multiples so far has been the Portuguese championship, on the others it's 99% single bets

Does anyone here also have a favorite league or championship for multiples? If so, share it with us please 

I prefer single bets but sometimes I also use accumulation bets, usually it also depends on the money you have if you have a lot of money to bet it's better to bet single bets but if it's only a little and want to get high odds you can use accumulation bets, to be honest I don't understand how The clear accumulation or parlay working system is that I only bet on single bets.

It's also best if I don't try a betting system that I don't know, but I've learned little by little over the past few days about what parlay betting is and also the accumulation bet that you mean, but for now I prefer to bet all my budget money on matches. single, nothing more than that, because even then I also look for possible opportunities to win because I use quite a lot of money, so I have to be more careful when betting. 

I will go with accumulated bets, not because of greed but the chance of recovery of losses from the previous. Let's say for instance: Newcastle is having a match against Manchester City and then because of the form of City, you select a straight win X2 with odd of 1.3, if you bet that game with $100 and it win, you will win $130 in return and if the next time you place another bet on Manchester City with another $100 and they lost, you will have nothing and will be left with $30. Your initial $100 is gone and you are left it $30 and to make back the initial, you will probably need to gamble a lot to get back that money before even starting to think of profits.

Now, if you have $100 on 10 odds with 7 games and all won as you predicted, you will win $1k right and you can bet another $100 in your next game, even if you lose you can still have $900 left in your account and with more strategy, you can win more if luck shine on you. The only challenge I see here is that the more you accumulate games, the harder it becomes to win because there is every chance a single game from that accumulated games will make you lose the bets.

Assuming, you are terming Parlay as Multiple betting.


I don't prefer sports betting at all, but if I have to choose one then it will be a single bet for sure because parlay is high risk and more likely you will lose if one bet goes the other way than you expected, just bet one time and win or lose the feeling towards will end sooner but if you intend to keep on extending it longer then the consequences may end up as an addiction.

Single bets and accumulated bets are the same because as long as they can place bets according to the money they can afford, they will be fine and still enjoy the gambling game. Placing a bet for both is equally profitable, especially if they place a bet with small money so that they don't lose a lot of money if they lose. Only greed will make them experience large losses in gambling because they will not see that they have to stop gambling before they experience even more losses immediately. If their target is to collect a lot of wins, they can use accumulated bets but must be able to place bets on teams that have the potential to win more to get more winning money.

I prefer accumulated bets. They allow you to adjust the point spread or totals in your favor for multiple games.  But i know some people whi say single bets are like the low-key option because it’s easier to handle and less risky since each result stands on its own. Your call depends on how much risk you're up for, you can try either

If you want a lower risk then a single bet is the right choice but if you want a big prize then a parlay is the right choice with a higher risk. I don't like parlays because they are difficult to win, if I bet on a parlay match then I will use a small bet. To be honest, I prefer single bets with fairly high stakes because it is logical to get a win rather than a parlay

A sucker bet is a gambling wager in which the expected return does not reflect the odds of winning, and is significantly lower.

As a sports bettor that I am, I believe that he is saying this in the sense that parlay is seen as if it were a bet that the person is making relying solely on luck, this is because the person adds many games and places a bet before the cast is announced. will play and many times when the person makes the parlay they cannot be sure that they will play and sports bettors who consider themselves professionals have criticized multibets. for a concrete example of what I'm talking about: yesterday in the premier league there were two games, the tottenham game in which I had a decent odds and the arsenal game in which I had odds of 1.35

For sports bettors who like parlays, they could make a parlay placing Arsenal to win and Tottenham to win and with that they would have a bet with a very high odds, convinced that Arsenal would have an easy victory because their opponent was a weak opponent who they were coming from a sequence of 3 consecutive defeats, so it was a game in which on paper the arsenal would win easily. but for bettors who do not parlay and make simple bets, they would not bet on the arsenal because it had low odds and because the arsenal in the last few games showed difficulty in scoring goals, so the bettor who makes simple bets would not run the risk of betting on over goals or under goals

Also, the sports bettor who makes simple bets would have bet on Tottenham to win only after he saw the list of the squad that would play and confirmed that Tottenham would play with all its best players, if any good Tottenham player was not in the starting 11 he I wouldn't bet. So this is the difference between the multi bettor and the singles bettor. but multi bets give more profit, especially when the person knows how to place good games in the parlay, in the long term the multi pays off, while simple bets don't pay off in the long term

I do both but if I bet large amounts I choose to bet on a single bet which is more comfortable and for me single bet can give me a lot time to do analysis.
but when I want to bet with big odds I just use a small bet and choose a parlay bet to try my luck.

most of what I see in the soccer betting section is that many bettors use single bet and parlay bet, they use both because it suits their goals, if they are sure that a single match can produce big profit, they only bet on one match, but when they are curious with some matches they choose parlay bets and I am really sure almost 80% on this forum like both.

I currently have game that will run till 14th of June 2024.

It all depends on what I want to achieve I’m a huge fan of slots and other casino game betting but when it comes to sport betting I usually for accumulated or single game depending on the amount that I want to wager. If I should go for accumulated game I usually risk a very low amount of money on the game, but if I’m looking to either play a game to increase my money( if lucky) without having to have multiple risks I Normally go for single games.

Most of my wins in sport betting are from single games although the sides were not that high, from 1.3 to 2.1 odds with majority of them being ~1.3 odds.

Sure single bet always have a small odd for instance the odd of the  match between Man City vs Sheffield United was 1.09 too small to earn a reasonable profit, however accumulating that odd with three or four sure games to 2.00 to 3.00 is enough to earn some decent money when staked with small fund, of course there are other options in soccer betting like both team to score, first half draw etc all these options can be accumulated to 2.00 to 3.00 but you have to do extensive research before picking those games, single bet that has a high odd is when a weak team plays a strong team or predicting a correct score I believe those options are unpredictable.

I do both. But depends to the match I bet on. Normally, parlay (or 'accumulated') bets are more risky than the first one, but it is definitely more exciting! And it is rewarding too!
I do single bets most of the time. I only play parlay once I feel like doing it, also when there is an attractive promotion with parlay betting.

I'm used to doing single bets, although I could do both. But it depends on how much money I have and how much I want to use for each bet.
Often I only place a single bet and there is a possibility that I will place a fairly large bet, especially if I am sure the team I choose can win easily.
But if not, I won't place a big bet and will look for another bet.
Placing a single bet can also prevent confusion in managing the bets we place so we can focus on just one bet.
But if you are used to accumulation betting, it's okay to keep doing it.
It all depends on your betting habits, which will influence how you bet.

Single bets will make it easier to win, but we have to be able to accept that single bets have very low odd.
However, not all single bets will have low odd because if match brings together team or players who are almost equal in quality of play without significant advantage over one of them then the odd can be more than 2.0 and this is decent odd.
It just that each person strategy will be different in the bets they follow, some are chasing big wins by making multi bets, there are also those who are only concerned with the chance of an easier win by choosing single bet.

I personally still use both ways of betting but for single bets perhaps only when there are no other interesting matches.
But if there are lot of matches that are interesting and easy to predict, then I will still prioritize multi bets, even though later when there are one or two matches left, I will cash out at least I can get win with fairly large odd.
But we must always be careful and always observe the progress of the match because just one mistake will destroy all our bets.

What kills most gambler on accumulation is greediness. Imagine when you are try to make millions of dollars with just few cents or $1, then you will need to accumulate more games. The less you accumulate, the higher the chance of winning.

Another thing about choice of betting between single bet and accumulated bet is that in single betting, the bettor will focus solely on one game and learn about the outcome which sometimes makes him very nervous. For instance, if in his single betting he predicted the both teams to score, he's very likely to watch the game while hoping that at the end of the day the two teams are gonna score so if there's any attacking play by any of the teams, he'll be nervously limping for a goal which sometimes wouldn't even be converted.

But when a bettor stakes on accumulated games, there are options in the game that he's very likely to forget during time games and might not even worry himself till the end of the whole games in his slip before checking if he won or not. So when a bettor is not good in managing nervity, accumulated betting I think should be preferred.

I think that single bets are the most profitable because allow to control the progress of a bet.
You can easily make a cashout or just "cover" your loss betting the opposite.
Plus, these kind of bets do not expose gamblers to many factors or events that are unrelated to each other...

Single bet is for those who prefer safety and multi bet is for those who like risk because the risk is proportional to the results that will be obtained if it is correct. Every bettor has different preferences and we will not always be able to find an interesting bet to include in multi, so single bets should still be made and multi bets should be made when we see a chance of winning, and currently I prefer single bets and sometimes use the bet builder feature.

You are talking about profit. Know that gambling is risking. Gamblers should first think about loss before thinking about profit because most probably gamblers can lose than gain.

I remember in the past that I will accumulate more than 10 matches, thinking that I would win, i lost most. Out of the many games that I have accumulated in the past, I think I won not more than 2 or 3. My losses were more.

If I accumulated just like 2 or 3 matches, It gives better profit.

I prefer a single match than to accumulate. But if I still accumulate not more than 3 matches, it is still better for me and gives better results than going for high accumulation.

Single bet for me, don't feel like thinking too much about the other stuff that's happening in the game and trying to make money out of it, I just want an unadulterated fun when I'm gambling because it's probably for the best, less frustrating for me and less stressful. But I still assess the odds though, don't want to be stressed out and then win the bet but I'm still losing because the odds were unknowingly lower than I'd known.

I kept using Single betting because when I gamble? the test of  capacity to wait and enjoy the game is in my Mind so even how long will it takes but single bet from here and there is what i use.
from all  the games that I wanted to enjoy it is single betting so yes only few chances that Accumulated bets is what made my gaming.
and another thing is in Single bet? you come to taste the winning so welcoming .

I prefer to do both. It depends on certain circumstances like if you are betting on very low odds like 1.01 or 1.05. These are bets that are most likely to win but because of the very low odds, it is worthless to bet on them especially if you are only betting low amounts. It is best to accumulate them to increase the odds. But if you are betting on odds like 1.90 or 2.00 or 2.50, it's better be made as a single bet. To include such bets in a parlay is risky.

I mainly focus on single bets because it's the best way to build up your profit overall, but on rare occasions, I still place a couple of accumulators and SGPs if I don't find the main markets appealing.

Accumulators or multi-bets are on the lighter side for me because it's common for one leg to ruin the entire bet, compared to singles, where you focus on a single match. Alternatively, you can make the same sequence of bets through single betting if the matches are a few hours apart.

One of the main advantages of single bets is simplicity. You only need to focus on a single outcome, which can be less confusing and easier to manage than multiple bets on a single ticket. As much as simple bets are ideal for beginners who are just starting to get acquainted with sports betting, I really like them because they take me much less time.
I like to simply choose my favorites, place a bet and then come back to check whether I won or not without worrying about what will happen next.

Naturally, the greater the number of bets on the same ticket, the risks increase, right? Therefore, multiple/accumulated bets cannot be the basis of a bettor's activities... however, for those who want a profit (which is certainly not my case, I play for fun only) accumulator bets should not be left aside. side when you want to amplify your gains.

Normal I gamble a lot on spot games, so I prefer using every bit of the strategy that will at least make me win. If I use the two methods of sport betting, it's either I am lucky with one or both, but in most cases I am always lucky with one. Although I feel the risk is just the same because even if it's an accumulated bet, you might just believe that you have bet on small odds that will most likely not get burst, but the games will still get burst. It's also applicable with a single bet, which you will have no doubt of losing, but it will also get burst. A single bet can get burst just as an accumulated bet would too. Between an accumulated bet and a single bet, there is nothing that I don't like. Sometimes, I even do the two at the same time and am likely to be lucky to win one. In accumulated bets, I can get a better cash out offer while the game is still running, and the cash out is not compared to a single bet, which can just be of little odds, and I don't actually like to stake a huge amount on a single bet because the chance of winning is still 50/50. It's only when the staked amount is huge on a single bet that this will have a huge cash-out offer.

The two betting patterns have advantages and disadvantages. If you are placing a bet on a single bet, then your chances of winning are kind of high because the odds will be low, which will give you high chances of winning. But before you will be able to make a good amount of money, you have to use a large amount of money to gamble. If you gamble with a small amount, then your reward will be small.
 
Also, if you are placing a bet on an accumulated bet, then your chances of winning will be very low since you have many odds, and any little mistake will make the bet go against you, so it’s kind of difficult to win when placing a bet on an accumulated bet. But even if you decide to gamble with a small amount of money, if you are lucky and your bet is correct, then you might be winning a lot of money. You don’t have to gamble with a large amount before winning big when gambling on an accumulated bet. I think with this simple explanation, the Op will be able to understand me.

With cumulated bets you get the chance and privilege to be able to accumulate more odds than you will do on a single bet ,so it's usually very much better for those who are looking forward to accumulating so much odds and not accuracy or certainties of their game played so I think it's the advantage attached to such preference.

For single bets most often, it's looking forward to getting some more accuracy in your bet than you will get with multiple picks and there's some level of certainty that comes with single bet such that only in a very few cases that it happens to be lost at the end of the day, single games reduce your risk, it also reduce your chances of losses and further gives you an edge at winning more often but then for the ones who don't consider accuracy and all that, accumulated bet is their run to option, personally I chose depending on what I want at the moment, if I want accuracy I chose a single bet or limit my picks to just three otherwise I just do multiple picks.

Some time choosing single bet just because you want to stake a big amount is also very wrong although the advantage of doing that is bigger than the disadvantages,  and for sure you can also lose too by betting in that line,  but mostly sometime majority of those that want to stake huge amount go for single games.

In football it better since you will be able to carry out some analysis on the teams,  and also be able to select the bets using the odds also since the best team are always given the smallest odds since their advantages are higher compared to that of smaller team's.

 in this case, i think it depends on the sports you are betting with and how familiar you are with the specific game in play.  if you don't want to risk much your money, i would go for single bet. but if you have very good feeling about your lineup of bets, you can do so. but should understand the high risk.

so deciding what option you will take depend on the bettor himself and how comfortable he is on his bets. i tried both and i feel more confident of having single bets as the risk is lower but of course don't expect high rewards.

Here's how I view both options:

• Single:— reduced risks and chances of an upset are slim.
• Accumulator:— Higher risks, higher rewards.

I do play both and it depends. For instance, I had to take on a single bet for a Aston Villa win earlier today and an acca with similar selections. I did so because I wanted to take advantage of Aston Villa instead of another team on my bet slip rekting my plan because I had the conviction that Villa would win today.

I just do whatever comes to me at the moment; I don't even consider it to be a choice. I utilize both, and thus I haven't actually established a formula for betting.
despite the fact that a single bet has a higher chance of winning than an accumulated bet, I only make use of single bets when my gut tells me to, and I simply add games that are comparable to my single bets when I realize that they can't pay off well. As a result, my single bets have evolved into accumulative bets. Although it very good to gamble with single bets because it very much good to profit regularly than loss often because you are chasing a very huge amount.

Well for me I prefer single bets though it requires a huge amount but regardless of that the risk isn't that much as if the single bet plays according to prediction, you've just won instead of accumulating and after several events have played in the ticket then one event eventually spoil everything. The problem most gamblers face is greed like they wanna use little amount and win huge and this is the more reason why a lot of gamblers loses in sports betting because it isn't easy to predict all the outcome of the events in your accumulation but imagine when you place single bet and you win regularly despite the little amount you win but it's still a profit to you rather than being greedy and losing bets all the time due to numerous accumulations.

I think the choice of sports betting between single and accumulated betting depends on the kind of betting a gambler wants stake on. For instance, if he's trying to stake a huge sum of money in betting, single betting is the best option because it's less likely to lose in single betting than accumulated betting but if the same person is trying to stake little amounts, then it's advisable he chooses accumulated betting.

There are different views about Parlay and system bets, but I learn one thing from the experience after staying into chats and other conversations with different punters about this all mostly love to stay with one bet because they feel its good but sometime if we odds issue then they sometime like to have one more but with few peoples those want to become rich quickly and also busted very quickly they prefer Parlay and system bets which have too much risk and many times happen to me as well while we have 5 or 6 teams parlay this busted at the last or second last bet which is more painful, but now I believe going with one bet is much but for fun we can jump into bets with more teams as well.

Both bets formats have their ups and downs,  but sometimes even though a single bet will give you a more lower odds,  your chances of winning them are still very high compared to accumulative bets,  and so for that many prefer to stick to single bets but staking higher amount.

Sometimes when I want to use the cash-out feature,  I prefer to use cumulative bets,  and by so doing I will be on standby to cash out any available profits without waiting for the finals of the games, these ways I avoid the risk of total loses since my chances to lose with that cumulative bets is higher.

I don't really understand what you mean by suckers. Can you please explain a little bit more.

They say parlays are for suckers but I still prefer them 

It depends on the amount you have available to bet.If you start with a big bankroll then by all means go for single bets,study your event where you want to be very carefully and make the best choice out of it.Chances are high you to hit it right most of the times and of course a few times everyone is burned because of a single game going wrong.

If you have a low bankroll then the best strategy is to try and build up the bankroll by placing parlay bets,you can start by choosing some of the favorites from the weekend games and hope for the best.The single bet in most cases I agree is more profitable despite me playing most of the time multi parlay tickets.

I just wish to see people view about single bet and accumulated bet. Which one do you till can be profitable when it comes to gambling. Although I normally do the two but in most cases I prefer accumulated bet to single bet.
