The thing is, we choose sports betting because we believe we do have a good chance of winning here, unlike on luck based games which are purely based on luck, here we can use our skills and develop if it if we are not that consistent yet, but it always comes with discipline which is to focus on sports betting alone.

If we can use our skills in analyzing the sports game to find which team has a big chance to win, it will help us win. But most people do not want to do that and use the tip from other people, which they do not know if that person has skills in analyzing the teams. Improving the skills in analyzing the teams will not easy because we need to learn many things, including knowing each team that will play. But yes, if we have discipline learning for many lessons and can focus on what we learn, we can improve the skills to analyze the team that has a chance to win.

thats a suicide if they follow tips from strangers because that tipper can be a lier but its okay to follow tips from the people that you know like in this forum there are pro sport bettors here that give tips and its not bad to relax and and enjoy by playing a dice game .
this can loose up the tension that build in you by too much foccusing on how to win in sports betting but nice post op i have increased my learnings especially in the decimal part (odds ) because im a noob in sports betting .

Before placing your bet, make sure to check the odds. Sometimes the odds doesn't seem so right.

The thinness of the betting markets on certain new or less well-known websites can also be a factor. You can get some great odds out there, it's often just a case of finding the right site. Unfavourable odds on one particular site might be completely different and much more appealing on a different site. Obviously with internet betting you're not limited to the betting shops in your own city... you have the whole world to go at.

Does anyone else have ideas on how to gamble successfully?

Nothing much, just do a research watch replays from the teams you're interested to put your bet on.
In addition to what you have in the OP;
Before placing your bet, make sure to check the odds. Sometimes the odds doesn't seem so right. Example an underdog team is playing against the odds or slightly have the odds like they don't usually have. Well, there might be a very notable reason for that. The most common scenario for that is , the opponent's star player isn't playing.
So, that's one example of the importance of pre-game news to adjust your bets, and mitigate the possibility of lossing.

One of the things you should consider to check on before you do make out any bets on where to check out those information which would really be helpful for you to find out
on whats the current situation on where a certain team you do tend to make out some bets.Not all the times that they would really be completely playing which means
it can really affect the overall team performance.Sportsbetting isnt just something that you can simply put up bets without any analysis or basis.
Dont make out blind bets and also check if the odds are really worth to bet on.

One rule is missing: Don't feel like just because you know a game/market really well, that you're guaranteed to make a profit on it over the long haul.

The betting markets have arrived at these odds for a reason and have likely accounted for all the probabilities using currently available information (that you could possibly be oblivious to). To try to beat the wisdom of the crowd over the long run is a seriously difficult task.

Unless you're a professional tipster with a proven track record, just have fun. Your expected value on a game you know extremely well compared to one that you don't know at all is very similar.

Totally agree on the first tip. You can't just be betting on a game or a team you have no background knowledge of. Doing so is the common recipe for losses. It's you're money we're talking about, so it actually wouldn't be that bad if you pay a little mind to whom and where you're betting. Because that increases your odds at winning more games and altogether winning money. Research on each team member's skills and weaknesses, and then compare them to whatever the enemy team can offer to the table.

How come dice was included here when we are just talking about sports betting?

Maybe one suggestion that would help is don't bet on parlays, and don't chase your bets by doing live betting.
Based on experience, these kind of bets are killing our bankroll, especially on live betting, if we are chasing, sometimes it will result to wiping out our entire bankroll, so always stay discipline in controlling your emotion.

That's a fair point. I guess it might have been better to include something about potentially misleading games that are really just disguised random number generators - like virtual horses for example. There is no skill involved in them, but lots of gambling sites add functionality that imitates real horse racing (like "tips", "previous form" and "history"). Most people will know this already, but some might be fooled by betting on such things.

The thing is, we choose sports betting because we believe we do have a good chance of winning here, unlike on luck based games which are purely based on luck, here we can use our skills and develop if it if we are not that consistent yet, but it always comes with discipline which is to focus on sports betting alone.

Start with small bets on much known games. Take into account a detailed list of sites providing odds for the game. From that you can get to know about the average odds for each team associated with the match. Further, it is good to make a note on the winning prediction from different sites and choose the one that is predicted to win out of the collected data.

Bet not on those much known games but on those games which are very familiar to you, those games which you play and have been following.

If you are going to base your bets on the winning predictions by the majority of sites, you are probably going to end up betting with the favorite most of the time. The odds are already reflecting those predictions. Odds are products of the analysis of experts. I think it is better to make a bet based on your own analysis and prediction.

Stay away from games like Dice unless you are doing it purely for fun. These games are designed to favor the house over the long run and you will not win. The highly repetitive nature of the game may also build a habit or leave you thinking that there is some sort of pattern going on, both are dangerous thoughts. If you know what you are doing and just want to take a chance then go for it, but you will not make any consistent money from these zero skill games.

Does anyone else have ideas on how to gamble successfully?

Gambling has nothing to do with skills otherwise please explain us what specific skills have lottery winners. This is just a matter of luck, so that's totally wrong to claim you can't make any consistent money with gambling games, if you're lucky you will do. Unfortunately it only concerns a tiny fraction of gamblers, so that represents only few people, but those people exist and can be anybody.

Because most of the famous Sports-Betting sites have an option to play Dice with very less deposit and high outcomes. You will be tempted to deposit a part of your winnings into the dice game to try your lock. You know, Greed.

OP Seems to have missed a very important point
- Make sure you're playing on a reputed Sports-Betting site because if you win big, scammy sites will introduce a number of conditions like KYC/Bet verification to lock you out of your funds. Always, play safe even if the site promises massive deposit bonuses.

Since this is mainly about sports betting, I would advise users to always straight bet vs parlay betting. The odds of your bet increase with each team you add to a parlay bet, but the odds of you winning that bet decrease greatly with each team you add. In a parlay you have to win all bets or you lose the bet.

This is one of the best tips which I always seem to forget.I try to add a lot of teams with small odds but as we saw yesterday Manchester City made a lot of people lose their bets including me.I have played single bets in Champions League during these last stages and when I have done so I have won a lot of more often than I have lost.Unfortunately most of the time greed gets the most out of me,I also think this happens with a lot of gamblers.

If people understand the rules of parlay betting well, they will understand what they need to do. In its essence, the higher the risk, the greater the victory. Although it allows players to choose any first match they are sure of, football contains unpredictable fluctuations, so the risk of having to win every match is high. But I think most players accept it, since the returns are exponential Cheesy

nice tips that can be useful for newbie on sports bets. however the suggestion about "dice" is valid for any other game with an house edge since the mechanism behind will be the same. I want just add to your suggestions:
- not play to much event in a parlay bets since the real odds of winnings will be drastically cut.
- not be focused on "big jackpot" since lucky isn't a profitable way for earn money in long terms.

Well you know I do think you can win in dice games also if you do keep your bet small and at some sites there are a range that you can pick yourself. This is much more profitable and at the end you can make a good money for sure. But then again it would depend on where you are playing since most sites have different types of such games. At the same time I do think that if you are talking about sports betting it's all about knowing the players even better than themselves at the same time it's highly Important to keep a track of the news and their life alike. Much like stalking haha. Most of the times sports betting is easy money for people who are really accomplished in this section.
At the same time I do think players should always choose a good site to bet on since it's always a good idea to check the reviews in advance.

If you will be able the odds between the teams or players, then you will have a higher chance to win in sportsbetting. The thing that makes it easier to win in sportsbetting compared to other pure-luck gambling games is that the outcome is in the hands of the players or that they have control of the outcome most of the times. Ofcourse luck will still be there but most of the time, if you know who and what you are betting your money with in this field, you will get the win on the bet. Also, Be careful on manipulation on the outcome which is quite observable nowadays especially in online gambling.

You can't win all time when it comes to gambling so stay within your betting limit because you will most likely lose a lot of money quickly if you don't.

The OP has mentioned some good and valid points which we must consider before placing any bet on the site as this sports betting market is becoming risky with growing popularity.I would like to add some point:
1) You must choose in which crypto you want to trade and whether that particular casino support that currency or not.These days transaction fees have become a major issues for ERC-20 tokens and your winning amount could be sacrificed with fees so choose wisely.
2)Trade you looses in a fun manner and try to learn basic skills with time and turn your mistakes into profits.

Enjoy your game and keep playing.
