Betting is one heck of an activity. It may seem pretty simple at first, but with time, as you learn more and more about the system behind it, may be a little overwhelming at times. Especially if you are planning to win something in the end. The principle of betting is somewhat simple: you place a monetary investment on a chance, if you are proven to be right you will win a sum a money in return. Simple things, right? Well…yes, sort of!
But when you look at systems or statistical predictions, betting is starting to look more and more like a financial market.
Ok…but what then? You might ask. Is there a secret in ”beating the system”? (with quotes of course) A secret that guarantees, more or less, a win without learning complex mathematical formulas?
Well…to be hones…no! There isn’t a such thing! Shortcuts are nonexistent in the online betting space, but i can tell you some advice that might help you earn more money on the long run.
This is a process that educates you with time. A trial and error situation. It doesn’t guarantee you the win (as far as i know i’m not a magician) but it surely can improve your betting strategy online and offline.
Let’s start with the first piece of advice.
- Start betting on other sports categories then popular ones
Right now there are a decent number of sports available for betting, some of them are somewhat constant in terms of who is winning, losing or the outcome can be more easy to predict (eSports and Tennis as an example)
- Don’t always pick the biggest odd
The biggest odd for a confrontation is put there for a purpose. The likelihood of the outcome to happen is extremely low. Pick odds that are in the ranges 1.5-2.5
- Stop betting on a large number of matches on the same slip
Betting on a large number of matches, on the same betting slip in another common mistake. Even though the potential win is big, the likelihood of that happening diminuates with each extra match you add.
- If you lost, don’t get mad and stop betting
It’s not that great to loose, no matter the context, Things get worse if you are a competitive person. After loosing a bet don’t get mad and most of all don’t bet immediately after. Your mind is clouded and most likely you will place bad bets that makes you lose even more.
For some of you the advices above may seem not that relevant, but i assure you that they make all the difference in the world. If you respect them and have a strategy in place whenever you place a bet, the chance of winning increases drastically. If you don’t see results in an instant, don’t stress about it, with time you will get better and better at it.
