Sometimes we think it's easy to win but it's not, odds maker providing us the odds whether it's a live bet or not always analyze it well and whether we like it or not, they are smart than most of the gamblers, that's why we make wrong prediction most of the time.
I didn't say it was easy to win I only wanted to point out that there are strategies where you don't need much information. I know the odds maker are smart and ahead of us but you can still make things work regardless of what they offer to us. If you actively bet or monitor the live odds sometimes you'll notice how they react heavily on small advantages that could still go both ways.

Unfortunately the method you are doing is very difficult for other people to do because maybe there are still some people who have tried it but it is not suitable and failed, maybe there are still other ways to gamble safely, and of course you must be aware that the risks of playing games are in place. gambling will be like that.

So you are talking of live betting here? Based on my experience, I have more success betting on live than betting on before the game. I think this is good if we have enough time and if we really want to improve our skills in sports betting, then maybe it's just right to invest our time watching live games and betting live.

Sports betting is a game that requires knowledge and luck, without both it is difficult to succeed in sports betting.
Sometimes we already have the necessary knowledge, unexpectedly a weak team that should lose turns out to be
lucky to win against a strong team. This often happens in sports betting, therefore having knowledge in sports betting
does not become winner. In sports betting, there are often many surprises, which make sports betting even more
interesting.

I think gaining too much knowledge specially on sports betting is just good and not really a harm for as long as you have all the needed information, you do already have lots of advantages for you are having a basis on making betting decisions on the sports you wish to play a bet with. It is better to have more informations on hand rather than lacking for you will just regret not knowing everything about that certain thing. Overflowing informations are just fine for you can manage to eliminate what you think is unnecessary or those that cannot be useful.

The considerations you take are particularly based on the information you have but those can practically be affected somehow by unexpected happenings and having informations on hand can make you be ready if ever such thing happen to make adjustments on that to help you decide on your betting decisions. It is better to gather more than to regret lacking information. Trust the information you have together with guts and observation to have an edge on the bets you will make.

I am with this perspective also. Too much knowledge will be very helpful in sportsbetting. Because that's where your chance of winning will put into good play. The more info you have, the better for your betting strategy. This is why the winning chance in sportsbetting is higher than luck-based games because as a bettor, you have the advantage if you know the game by heart.

I dont about how others bet, but analyzing everything seems to me like an overkill. People like that are seriously making money, and made gambling as an online source of income, probably.
But for me, my strategy is simple know the game, teams, and players. Odds is not 100% accurate to predict the winner. I sometimes, even go by instinct and just put money on team that looks strong especially when their in a winstreak.
Yes you're right, unlike casino gambling games, when a sport team (or a single player) is in a winning streak, the chances to win the next contest increase.
Choosing a team with a winning streak will help win the bet and must be helped by your conscience to convince it, and besides that you also have to have accurate knowledge and information about the players, strategies and players who will play or other things and to make sure your choice is right.
Thats why sportsbetting is only for those who really love the game they will be betting for because this needs knowledge about everything from players,teams and their performance to each others when they played.
though there are some called Beginners luck yet this will not long and losses will face you then.
never Bet in any sportsbet that you don't have idea so better study first and take time,never rush and never bet too much at first,start with smaller bets and sooner you will grow,But also always have self control if you don't wanna lose everything.
Luck is not for beginners only, and it can last more than people generally think.
Someone winning at a gambling game where he had only 1/1000 chances to win has exactly the same luck as someone winning 10 times in a row at a game with 1/2 winning chances. (1/2)10

Sports betting is about luck. But analysis of various circumstances and conditions would make your probability better. Head to head statistics and analysis only would not be enough as there are other factors that may affect the game. Betting without analysis would just be a dice game. Favor and bias are the next big thing that hurts your chances on sports betting.

I think you're just overthinking here.

Sportsbetting might be that something where analysis really comes handy, obviously knowledge too but when that happens, I guess you better stick to what you wanted. You can't ensure a win since, at the end of the day, we are still gambling. I think you should not be asking about that, I think you should ask yourself whether you need yourself to rest on betting for a while or not.

I don't think betting randomly on sports games will be profitable!! However, if you have correct knowledge about clubs and players, you will know where to place your bet. Sometimes our expectations do not work despite the knowledge we have regarding club performance! Because luck was not on our side and the club we bet on.  Undecided

Ofcourse.
Unless they are depending on sports-bettors who already have the knowledge, skills,etc, I don't see how people without talent/skill/knowledge will do well or earn consistently/sustainably in sports-betting. It's possible to get lucky all the time ... I believe it's only through divine aid though
Betting randomly on sports games will not give us a big chance to win because we don't know which teams or players who have the big opportunity to win.
We can lose our money anytime by randomly choosing, so it is better if we don't gamble if we don't know what team can win.
Depend on the sports bettors will not be a good idea if we don't know how good his skills in sports betting, and we might still lose the money if we follow them.
You need to search for the information from anywhere you can, so you can have the data that can be used to choosing the teams or the players.


Agreed..  Assuming by random bets you mean betting without the necessary skills, knowledge, talents etc... Or depending just on luck.
I would probably research and bet occasionally, if I ever go into sports-bettings

betting randomly is only good to do for fun or if you have a spare coin and you decided to try your luck on sport betting game  . this is me because i have zero knowledge on sports but somtimes i also copy the bet slip of other players if i feel something on it .  you are not expecting to win this way but who knows  ?  

for those who are veteran sports bettors they can pick teams easily with or without a research but they can do well with a research of course  .
Before we gamble, we need to have a reason, which is we don't think about the win and the loss. We only want to enjoy the games using some money, and we will stop gambling once we almost run off all the money.
But in sports betting, when you place a bet, that means you want to see your team can be the winner so that you can win some money too.
And if you only want to do that for fun, you can randomly choose the team without much knowledge about each team.
Sometimes, the veteran sports need to search for more data since the game will have a surprise in every match.

My question is about a related matter. When I've asked in a different thread what is required to become a good bettor, many have mentioned that knowing the games, the teams and things like that is essential. But I'm sure there's a certain limit to this flow of information, and when this limit is reached, it's not useful and is even potentially harmful for making the decision. If a person is betting on a soccer match and reads about every match of every person on every team, plus weather forecast, plus research on home advantage etc., the amount of information can be overwhelming and probably not that important or useful to bet on the outcome a particular match. What do you think: is there a rule that would help not to drown in information but only focus on what is helpful? Or is it 'the more, the better' in your opinion?

For me one of the greatest factor of for a team to win is through their previous games. Watch more games specially on the game of your favorite one, that one that you are more willing to gamble your money. Get information about the health status of the players and also for the coach as he is the one who makes strategies. Second is the home court advantage, ofcourse because they are much familiar into it than the away team.
This is why if you want to win any money by betting in sports you need to become an expert on the sport in which you like to bet and for the most part that means being an expert on the sport itself, so anyone that is looking just to make a few dollars in a quick way is going to be deeply disappointed because this is not how it works, if you are a very passionate fan of a particular sport then you may have a chance to become successful in sport betting, if you don't you should not even bother.

I can say that you do still have chances to win even if you do bet on other sports as well neither it had been suggested out for you to do so or simply just making out random bets
yet to know that there would be only have that 2 results in regards to your bet which means it would be always on 50% chance. Even you dont know the game that much then
you do still have the chance on winning but wont really be the same to those people who do really had their knowledge towards the game and also when it comes to fun
part then i dont see for it to be entertaining or enjoyable on betting to those games you arent familiar with.

Doing that wouldn't give you fun to be honest.

You'll only experience the fun once you love what you are doing and you are challenge, because you will try to analyze games before putting your bet.
That means you are not blindly picking a team since you use your intelligence to analyze the data that you have before you pull the trigger.

for those who are veteran sports bettors they can pick teams easily with or without a research but they can do well with a research of course  .

Veterans does not mean winners, some veterans in sports still lose, and there's no such thing as easy pick because we have to carefully analyze the game and find the value so we have a better chance of winning. Someday, you'll understand it if you learn from your experience, but start learning sports betting first.
