Hello all,
Wouldn’t it be good to get extra euros instead of having a betting bill at the end of the month?
All the Pros, or at least the more experienced bettors, determine a set of rules that they follow religiously… this is not a guarantee that you will go rich, but at least the bookie looses that edge he used to have when you were throwing euros like a little kid.
I have a set of rules that I try to follow (when my head does not go crazy) to keep me in the race for a little extra pay check at the end of the month. Please remember that these are my rules that I figured out trough experience and learning from others, I advise everyone to research and create their own set of rules:
Rule #1: Only bet what you can afford
Sports’ betting is a dangerous business and I dare you to find news about a betting website or bookie that has bankrupted!!!
Always bet responsibly, create your own bank with an amount of money that if you loose no harm will come to your life. Never use rent, food, or your son’s future to bet.
You just had a couple of wins and you think you should bet a little more… it is a good choice since you are on a good streak.
This is a basic error, because your streak will end sooner or later. The same happens when you are loosing and want to get back to even faster.
Define your stake at the beginning of the season or when you deposit a new bank, this stake will be called the Unit and you should stick with it and do not modify it according to streaks or good tips.
Keep it simple and follow the sports in which at least you understand the rules.
This rule applies to both sports you don’t know anything about or games you did not study. Do not go after those big odds, let it go… focus on the things you know and try to read the information correctly.
Socrates used to say it and it is true… always keep an open mind, you are not the master of information and there are a lot of people out there to learn from. Use the internet for this and start your quest, try web forums about betting, betting sites, everything you can put your hands on… and always listen what others have to say even if you don’t agree with them.
The bookie is expecting you to do that and he is already rubbing is hands with joy. Avoid the big favorites because the odd usually does not pay the risk. If you decide to back a favorite you must be pretty sure he will win and do not rely on a hunch or pass results.
When a game is on TV it does not mean that there is a profitable bet hiding somewhere.
Usually bettors spend hours finding a bet they consider a keeper just because the game is on TV, try to study the games before you know the sports channel lineup for the day or avoid to bet on that late afternoon match just because it will be fun to watch.
Be aware that if you loose a bet you will immediately try to find another one to get back on track… this is one of the worst mistakes you can make. When you loose your mind starts seeing good bets everywhere, it does not matter if the risk is big or if you don’t know if the leading players are on the field.
This is what some bettors call the black hole syndrome, the more you try to bounce back the more you go deeper in that hole.
Just close your mind and go for a cup of coffee.
Find the game of the day and go strong, if you start dividing your bet on a lot of games the day will most probably become a loosing day.
Keep it simple and never forget to handle sports betting as a business.
Within this rule it always applies to parlays (multi-game betting), avoid mixing your bets, always try to bet on one game only and be very careful to join odds as this increases the possibility of a lost bet.
This is the where you will start loosing the big euros. Live betting is not a computer game, it is for real… it is very easy to get carried away with the nice odds or with the way the game is going. The truth is that a game flow is the best way to trick an inexperienced bettor and the bookies will eat you alive.
