Betting on sports has to be older than recorded history.
We realize that the Romans were fanatical about sports betting however the loser probably wouldn’t or could not show up for the next game.
World wide the total amount of cash bet on sports has to be absolutely phenomenal some one some ware must be making a lot of cash all I know is it certainly was not me.
Like most people betting on sports was all about fun for me I never thought of making serious money from it.
Although I did begin to realise that just a little thought and common sense could save me a lot of dough and perhaps even make me some money. For instance blindly betting on a team that you support is just not the answer. You will need to stand back be analytical and detached with no personal involvement.
In the event you are a true sports fan that maybe easier said than done so pick a sport that you do not follow and after that you just do not care who wins or looses. I find team sports to be the very best as games like golf just has too many variables and also favourites play a lot more tournaments than they win. Tennis I do not know enough about and cannot judge. Look if you feel confident with these sports do not let me talk you out of it.
Alright so you have picked your sport or sports then what.
Well a friend and I sat down some time ago and put together a list or group of rules that we thought may help improve our chances they may be.
Don’t pick the obvious favourite as the returns for a win are too small and the risk of a loss to great.
At the same time do not pick the under dog. Sure they may get up and relevant resource site make you the best return however the chances are they won’t and also you may have lost your hard earned money.
Look-at middle ranking situations alright it may seem tough to separate them but by doing your investigation you shall find that you could. As an example does one side travel better than the other? What is the history between the 2 sides? This is not just the teams but coaches as well.
Are key players available? This is vital as well as can throw off rules 12&3 straight away.
What are this Sports Writers and Journalists saying and read more than one of their predictions as on there own also they can be notoriously inaccurate. However in the event the majority pick the same result then the odds are that may be the correct one. If they cannot make up their mind move on to another game as this one could be too close.
Limit the range of bets you make if you bet on every one you will inevitable lose.
Finally manage the amount that you bet we had a fund and 5% of it was the limit on any one bet.
All of this made us a small profit but certainly not enough to boast about but we did enjoy ourselves.
