Topic: Sports betting Strategy -> Betting early vs. late - page 3. (Read 512 times)
You place a pre-match bet. Then if your pre-match bet is going south fast you place a live bet which will hopefully hedge your earlier position and secure you a profit. It's not rocket science. Of course it's possible that you might end up being unlucky twice which would be very unfortunate.

Before i was doing live betting in Directbet site, it was easy to do on this site but now others sites are not that much user friendly that's why I will place my bet before the match starts. I can predict some games like Cricket, Tennis, Football have good knowledge on this games.
I always bet on NBA games with my friends only and every game we bet, that's how we gamble and have some fun every time someone loss. I think in terms of sports, its good to bet on late or even every game because you can know if your team can survive to their opponent, its more safer I think.
Betting sports game is really having fun and excitement was always there that who's team is win at that moment, i tried also also betting NBA games sports and that was very having fun until the game was end at the final round. The most i must prefer sports game is the world boxing fight that games make me tense, thrill and full of excitements in every round have or did not reach the opponent in the 12 round. I bet $200 for that event with my friends but i'm not tried on this forum.

For you sports bettors out there, do you prefer to lock in your lines early or closer to the scheduled start time?
Early:
- chance of yielding closing line value (CLV) in locking in a line that beats the market, giving you +EV bets
Late:
- more confidence in lineups, injury situations
I guess it depends on how confident your picks long-term will yield CLV based on whatever model/projections/analysis/tipsters you use. I imagine most casual betters just place their wagers closer to game-time, though they will never yield CLV.

Everytime i bet in sports i always bet early because the income if you win is larger than betting late, but of course i will do my research early and make sure that i check all the possibilities that might change before the game starts. But if my favorite team or player have a game i don't do any research anymore i just bet on them because i love watching my favorite team with thrill whatever the outcome of the game win or lose.
I usually bet on cricket matches and most of the times I bet before the match begin to get better odds because many times these matches can be easily predicted if you know these teams strengths. For a quite long time, I'm following these cricket matches so some of the matches I can predict winners easily. Only a few bets I did live betting when directbet site was offering live cricket betting option but after that, I didn't try live betting.
I play both when I have some time to monitor the game, I do use sportbet as they offering live games, I think what is good with live games is you can
assess the players and the team's performances, though odds really change a lot, unlike with early bets where if you are lucky to pick the best one
you will be able to win much bigger but risk also much higher as factors that influence the results still unknown.

Live betting definitely is a whole different beast in itself, definitely.
I personally place wagers as early as possible in hopes of yield closing line value and +EV bets, but that's just my preference.

I see there are plenty of the users on the betting site go with the early lock instead of waiting for odds changes to different player. I personally choose the betting option on sportsbet.io When go with the betting I will use to wait till the both team or player should be comes with the same level of odds.
The reason why I bet on the middle of the matches because odds can changes to anyone's favour we choose the player in the mid time of the match.
