But the chance of win will certainly be much smaller right? the greater the risk the greater the odds. if you are not prepared for defeat then it is better to use a strong team with small odds its more better, the important thing is the chance of win is more bigger, that's the principle of my gambling

But smaller odds usually also mean bigger wagers to make some decent profit. And bigger wagers mean the possibility to lose more money if the bet doesn't go the way you planned. There is no bulletproof strategy unfortunately.

Just normal for you to make those big bets in order for you to feel the profits if you do win that round but well same as you said.
You would potentially lose even more than on you do earn so its still imbalance if you ten to follow up with this kind of betting strategy thats
why some people do risk with small bets into those big multipliers.

i made a bets with odds more than 2.00 because i made a multiple bet (parlay) so the odds is bigger but the lose risk is high to. with this multiple bet i can win much bigger.
and if i made a single bet i usually take odds under 2.00 it's probably easy win.

Therefore I'd like to get some of your opinion based on your experience, which is odds listed below gives you a better chance of winning?

a) over 2.00 or b) less than 2.00

Odds of over 2.00 means that team or player is the underdog or have low chances of winning. If you're lucky you will win double from your betting amount but that doesn't happen always. I would still prefer less than 2.00, they already proved their capability to win reason many people bet on them.

Less than 2.00 does not win all the time either, odds is not a measure of winning, if that is, we can bet blindly but still win, things like that doesn't happen in sports betting, I never come across a gambler who's been winning using the under 2.00 odds only.

The thing is, posters here just give their opinion but don't really experience the success betting on odds under 2.00.

Actually, if you talk about opportunities, it's relative, maybe you speak less than 2.00 better, and other people talk otherwise. In my own opinion, both are equally good, it's just how we can perfect both of them into better opportunities so that we get the maximum victory. Gambling is a matter of strategy and not luck, if the strategy is good then you are lucky but if you are lucky the strategy is not necessarily good.

For better chance of winning then obviously lower than 2.00 is better but as this is gambling which have unpredictable results sometimes higher odds also can win and lower odds also can be lost however i personally more prefer to bets lower than 2.00 but indeed sometimes i did want to bets for high odds

If you are going to use small bets, just go with odds higher than 2.00x, there is no reason to betting with lower odds than 2 00x with small bets since you will get small profit too. Better to risk in parlay if you are gonna using lower odds.

If the odds makers do their job right *they usually do) all bets will have the same expected return overtime. MY personal preference is to bet on the underdogs and go for those high risk/ high reward plays.

I admire that kind of strategy, I've been experimenting on betting most underdogs line as it gives good odds, but actually not too much underdog.
Usually the line in a good sportsbook if the game is 50/50 would be 1.92 both, but that 8% is big enough and that would make us loss money even if we are 50/50 in win/loss ratio. For me take, I will take the close which is around 2.01 to 2.10, no juice in the odds and you got little extra if you win.

I did not think this way in the first place. A local professional gambler once told me that ” if I gamble with low odd that will not increase my chances of winning and losing, therefore, why should I adopt low risk”! your post makes me remember the man advice and I think both less than 2:00 and above that is good and what matters is either you are able to win or lose.

Better chance says who?
I guess we sometimes too rely the chances based on the odds alone, which is wrong IMO.
Odds are created to balance the betting as these odds maker knows how people react with the odds, that's why we also some some line movement prior or during the game. If odds with lower 2.00 gives better chance, then making money would be easy by just betting on it.

Sure, better chances of winning would be for b, but since I like to do martingale I go with odds above 2.00, for simplicity's sake.

Worst strategy martingale and even it's far worst with higher odds, you won't ever going to win good because sometime your losing streak will be too big to manage.
I just suggest you to avoid martingale and better start gaining knowledge about sports/team/players you bet.

I agree that martingale is a bad strategy but I can't conclude and judge that it's not a working strategy.
Sports betting is no different in dice or any games with house edge, so martingale could also work here but I don't want to use it as my strategy.
We got to stay focus and consider sports betting a long term gambling and flat betting is way better, not exciting if you don't have a decent bankroll, but if you do, for sure you will love it as that will make you last.

It doesn't really matter as I have come to the conclusion that odds are irrelevant,they are only a tool of the hous to confuse us,the gamblers.I have bet on all kind of events and even odds of 1.10 have come to fail sometimes and not be a winner bet.

In theory the odd less than 2 should have more chances but the reality says otherwise.I don't have a preference for certain odds.

Martingale is another type of betting strategy, I tried to experiment that in the past but I have no success on that, if you will be hit by a cold streak, it's hard to stay discipline as you loss more and more.

Sports betting is one of the favorite games in gambling and I always wanted to experience a long term winning.

I can't make a betting decision based on the odds only.Every game and every match is different.
If less than 2.00 was winning more often,every gambler would bet on less than 2.00 and the bookies will change the odds to benefit themselves.There's no easy way to win from sports betting.

If you are good at games and you have knowledge about the team so it will not be hard for you to bet on the game, as we should keep eyes on the performance of the every game and the players so them it will be not be hard to bet for making money, if you choose 2 it is same as 1, but for this you will have to give little more time and get fully understanding with the game and the team.

Literally we do have higher chance on those 2.00 lower odds but it doesnt mean that it makes you win everytime.I already tested out to have this betting style which stick into those favorite ones mostly but end up on messing my entire bankroll.Its a mistake because i do come to a point that im not even realizing or whats my basis regarding on my bets yet i do only focused on odds selection.
