I don't think it's smart to place bets based on odds alone... odds can deceive us! My betting on sports is colorful... I have many won & lost parlays and single bets. I also prefer betting on football (soccer), it's what I follow, simply it's the sport of my choice. But even with some knowledge and experience, it's hard to maintain a winning streak! So after a few good bets and wins I usually get into a red streak...
I think it's possible to make some profit with sports betting, at least for people with patience and some plan (which I don't have, but that's another story) it's possible to make some profit in the long run. Choosing the games and making breaks between bets can be a very smart move, who can do it.
In the end, if you don't try it you will not know if that works for you or not! So give it a go!

Betting based on odds alone is as risky as betting with your eyes closed. If you want to improve your skill level, try diving deeper into soccer - talk on sports forums, analyze team and player statistics, watch matches, etc. I, like many others, believe that only a deep dive into sports can improve your betting results. Otherwise, everything depends only on your luck.
I'm hoping to make more BTC so the more bets from now on the more chances of winning. I think that's what I'm going to do now before the bull run takes full speed.
Regardless of which game. To me, I bet on Soccer but I seem to have lost every day. How often do you win in Soccer games if you just bet based on odds by picking a team with 1.50 and 1.70?
I think you’re approaching this the wrong way. The odds of course state the more times you play the more chances you have to win, simply by the numbers, but those odds aren’t at a very high percentage if you’re not very knowledgeable about what you’re betting on.
I mostly bet NFL and NBA, especially the NFL because it’s by far the sport I’m most knowledgeable about and I do quite well each year. I bet say Hockey here and there but I don’t know the game well at all and I often lose, so I stopped doing so. My advice is stop betting soccer.

There are no guarantees in football betting and in most cases 1.50 or 1.70 odds are not the problem but the team itself. While placing sports betting; it is important to check through the team sheet, statistic and overall play before casting a bet on teams because the odds (1-50 and 1.70) never tell the true picture. This is why sometimes you see 10.00 odd scoring 2 goals against a team with 1.13 odds. The odds figure paint a different story
Always check and study the football side stats

It doesn't really matter if you are confident with your bet when the odds are like that, but on the other hand, of course, we need to consider other factors in this case because sometimes odds like this are only likely to occur in a few matches and both of them don't really display a fairly balanced strength or vice versa.
When I'm confident, I'll do just that, for example when Madrid met Manchester City in the semi-finals where Manchester City were odds 1.6x if I'm not mistaken, as well as the Champions League final against Inter.
But if I'm not really sure about my bet, I'd rather skip or play it safe first and see how the game plays out afterwards.

Gambling for profit is just a massive death wish but I can't really stop you now can I? besides, I think you know what you're doing already, so just make sure that all the pointers I set above are met and you should be good to go at least.

Don't put your faith in gambling to increase your BTC earnings; gambling is unreliable, therefore you should exercise caution while placing bets to prevent losing all of your previously earned BTC. Instead of jeopardizing all you've managed to save, why not just stick with your signature campaign? Working with campaign managers can help you amass a lot of bitcoin quickly.

Don't let losing make you lose hope because that's just how betting is; better days are coming for you. Just do your best to avoid letting your loss affect you or letting greed rule the day. When placing a bet, I take into account a number of other things in addition to what the odds are indicating about the game. Though odds don't always deceive, they can occasionally be misleading.

I aim to find odds of around 4-5 so my potential gain is 5 times what I placed which is pretty good for me. I suggest avoiding random teams that you have no information about and instead look for known football games that offer good odds.
Good luck mate:)
I wouldn’t say I bet solely on the odds alone. However, I do take the odds into account and there have been plenty of times that my decision on which side to place my bet was changed due to the odds. Balancing risk and reward is a major step in gambling and investing and nothing displays this more simply for people than the “odds” of a bet.
Odds don't mean anything unless you know the reason why providers placed it that way. It's not enough to take those numbers in face value, as it depend on the teams and players playing. There are tons of factors that affect the whole game, and the odds providers already took that into account hence why they come up with the odds. You, as the bettor, also needs to know the reason as to how they came up with that number, and figure out whether that is worth the bet or not. You need to know the sport and the teams in order to make money on sports betting.
If i'm only betting based on the odds, then i'd probably lose more because there are a lot of inconsistent teams between different leagues that fail to deliver a win at home and on the road whenever they're a 1.5 - 1.7 favorite. Even with research, i've been struggling to win on favorites with odds around the same range, so you need to learn when it's a trap because it's common to see bookies rate a few teams too high, and then they'll start bottling when you bet on them.

This is where you are getting it twisted because you are focusing and channeling your efforts to earn more bitcoin instead of you to gamble for fun, let me clarify you on something that was happening to me back then when I was desperately gambling to win a huge and a higher amount; I was always losing because I do accumulates some higher odds thinking of that after getting some odds it would all played probably I cash out big time but guess what?
I was always losing till I learned to removed my attention on making big cash out or possibly got rich from gambling I decided to reduced my way of thinking and selection of games precisely soccer. But currently I don't gamble regularly and I don't lose that much maybe if I do the likelihood of winning a game would be higher of losing. Actually those odd aren't that bad for you to lose, so the possibility of winning might be cool with you.

How well do you follow soccer?
For you to win bets in soccer you have to have to a have a certain level of understanding of the sports. If you are just going to bet according to the odds then its going to be more difficult for you to win. Sports betting is very tricky and soccer is among the worst of them. The team with the smaller odd doesn't always win. In fact most times the opposite is the case. Even when the team with the lesser odd wins the odd turns out to be too small and you end up not winning much. At that point you're risking so much to win very little.
Picking teams with 1.50 to 1.70 odds, its not guaranteed you'd win even if that is the smaller odd. So I would advise you not to use odd alone, but try to analyze to match, analyze both teams and see their current performance. Check how the perform at home and how they perform away from home. Check how often the score, both home and away.
One thing other gamblers do that I don't do is check the head-to-head of the teams. I don't know how accurate that may be, but a lot of gamblers do it and it wouldn't hurt to try.
All these are not guarantees that you'll win, but it might improve your chances.
You can also use your intuition to determine.
This is absolutely a bad idea to try to increase your level of betting just because you want to earn more Bitcoin because it has been proven that the more you gamble just to win the more you lose and the more money the casino makes instead you making more (Bitcoin) as you wanted, there is no way that a gambler will determine the direction the outcome of the bets.
Gamblers who often see gambling as a way to make money will loose plenty money trying to make more. @OP, if you are trying to get more Bitcoins, winning some from gambling can seem like a way, which is true, but it is not the most advisable place to hope to make money from gambling. Even if you win Bitcoins from gambling today, and gambling by then has already become an uncontrollable habit, it is not impossible that you still gamble away the Bitcoins you win. It takes strong discipline for gamblers to keep what they win. I'm hoping to make more BTC so the more bets from now on the more chances of winning. I think that's what I'm going to do now before the bull run takes full speed.

Also, note that even the game with the smallest odds can still give you losses so as that you shouldn't rely on odds to make such stances of winning.
And if care is not taken, the more games you play the more money you will lose using odds indicators unless luck is on your side consistently.

It's not a smart thing to do but it's your money. Open a thread like stadus did in the last NBA season and update us on the result of your odd-based betting.I also bet based solely on the odds but I seldom do that. Maybe only 5 or less out of the 38 games in the Premier league. The amount I bet is also not that significant since I understand the risk so it's not really worth counting the wins and losses.

Do not gamble because you want to make more bitcoin (money) for the coming bull run, it is just a way of giving yourself a bad thinking that can make you lose even the ones that you supposed to hold. Gamble with what you can afford to lose, not with bitcoin that you supposed to hold.Regardless of which game. To me, I bet on Soccer but I seem to have lost every day.

It depends on the odd itself and how perfect the match is after making analyses. That last one I took was 2.2 odds. The last one I took before that was 2.4 odds which was in-play. But I bet in a way that I know that I can lose as well. I can go for 1.25 odds, but I can go lesser than that. What that matters before staking is my analyses.I do not like going for any odd lower than 1.25 odds anymore. Sometimes I like penalties too which can be of at least 1.2 to 1.3 odds for a penalty played. But penalty can be lost too.
I gamble with very little amount of money, so nothing to think about if I lose.
