There's another thread here asking "Whats best strategy to make easy money?"
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5104674.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5104674.0)

Cool to see that most replies in that thread are honest and helpful - there *is* no easy way of making money.

But I was thinking it could be interesting to ask:
What are the *easiest* or *most popular* ways of making a profit using gambling and betting sites?

I will start with a first answer:

Matched Betting (Bonus Arbitrage)
http://sportsarbitrageguide.com/blog/tag/bonus-arbitrage/ (http://sportsarbitrageguide.com/blog/tag/bonus-arbitrage/)

I think quite a lot of people do this - it is a pretty simple algorithm/process to follow. But the margins are small, and the time required to actually do it profitably is off-putting for many. Plus the operators are getting cleverer at stopping this. But still, it doesn't require too much skill (or?) so I would class it as one of the "easiest" ways to make profits through gambling.

Any others that are easier or more popular?

the way of following some good strategy is always very important to be a gambler for long time because if you don't have any other strategy while gambling it will not work in all time so following good strategies always best for without having any technique.

Through sports betting it is possible to make a winning, to win you need to know better about the game and the players. So it'll be easier for you to predict the result of the game based on the team, players, venue and select the odds. In this case pick the right odd even if it is low. Most of us tend to pick the highest odd unlike the game scenario which needs to be avoided. Beyond this luck is required as you are into gambling.

I used to play dice in online casinos and apply the martingale technique. In the beginning, I had some profit but as the time went by I started losing and losing and I wasn't able to cover my initial bet.
Now I am trying something like the same but differently. I pick a big football club and I bet that it will lose. If I lose my bet, I double it and so on.

Many says the same thing and in my neighbour lotto coffee shops I have seen people there from morning to evening reading and analysing everything about the event they would bet on.

The result? Those persons are now broke , divorced from their wives and are miserable right now. What I want to say is that a strategy can only work for a very short amount of time and not in a continuous way.

Its easy to bet on sports and its more profitable since you only bet between the two teams, i think study the history of the team and it can be a good strategy for you to win though of course the underdog still have the chane to win but it a very low rate. Luck is indeed a major component for you to win in gambling.

I have better answer than you, however, it's not so easy way but believe me, worths to do, so let's start.
If not easy, then what's the best strategy to earn money? Answer is very simple and great - work!!!! If you won't shake your head and move you butt, then you won't earn money. Also the easier and silliest way you choose, the higher are risks.
Imagine kickass owner, he created website and got huge traffic - that's hard part but then he was sitting and letting others to upload torrent files while earning a lot of money - he end up very badly.
Now imagine you manage football team and fix matches, very easy and huge money but one mistake and you know how you'll endup.
Look world differently, every "easy" way requires hard work too..... less work and risks are huge.

the most easiest strategy was 23 making your gambling more comfortable delimitation what will be the best idea to reduce the losses happening and gain the profit also.

Betting to earn rewards from promotions and contests is one of the best way to make a profit. In one gambling site i've lost nearly 0.05 BTC and withdrawed 0.2 BTC from doing promotions. Sometimes you have to be careful because there are promotions that aren't profitable.

It can be more profitable if your sportsbook has a cashout feature. You can quickly secure your profits and avoid losses if the team you're betting on starts to lose their lead in the last few minutes.

Martingale is not a good way to earn the easiest profit yet you can lose your funds faster than playing it with a smaller bet. Martingale is just good when the odds are upon you but not a good strategy if you are losing. It makes it worst in the long run so I wouldn't suggest that.

Just look for a better odds the team and bet some 60% of your main funds or so.

I am not a gambler myself but I do gamble sometimes, but in this case, I can say something.

For me there is not "easy" or profitable betting strategy since we are dealing with luck on gambling. This is sports gambling so the chance of winning here is high since we can base our bets on the information that we had analyzed or based on their past or recent performance. Still, no one knows what might happen and loss in gambling is inevitable.

Martingale does work or not work depending on the luck of certain person. Ive tried it for how many times and the outcome do varries on how lucky i am on a particular day.

Back to topic, i cant still say that its the easiest way to make money thru gambling on whats being stated on op, small margin doesnt give you assurance sure win.

its not the martingale that gives you winning because it is actually normal to win and to loose because that was gambling made for  . winnings are random everyday or everytime you play  . Gambling strategy only adds a direction to your game so that you can make sense to your game play  .

Gambling is already easy . you dont need strategy anymore  imo  . strat can only make you a little more confuse and worried .

There is no specific strategy for betting, all you need is to have a lot of experience in it, you do various strategies but still in the end the house will always win. If you only rely on free bets / free money / bonuses or some kind of promotion offered with certain turnover requirements, if it is applied to sports betting then chances are you can still make a profit only from a promotion that you maximize, but when it is a free spins so I'm not so sure we will get a profit easily, but that doesn't mean that in sports betting it's easy and I just feel that if the bonus is maximized in sports betting, then chances are we still have a good chance of making a profit.

Though sports arbitrage works it's also accompanied by risk, gambling house will freeze your account if they found out that you are doing this, aside from that in order to win decent you also need to have a good amount of bankroll though there's no question if you facilitate it well and excecute then that's an easy money for you to grab.

Regarding to sepcific strategy, those mentioned above are only possible for every specific type of a person but in majority, it's only luck that we can depend and how well we manage to quit before we run out of it.

I found some guys made huge profits from sport betting but all behind their success story is deep analysis and luck as well so we can't be the same winner even when we have deep analysis so there is no easiest way to win in gambling as long as you don't have enough luck on your hands.

the easiest way to win in a betting gambling sites or casinos is to know the game that you are playing, for example in NBA, you should have a knowledge abou the team that you are betting and its opponent, the players of each team, who is injured, the place of game and everything you need to know in order to have a better chances at winning. thats how gambler works.

When you bet on 50%-50% then the odds are equal. You can increase your chances in dice by choosing a wider range of number where your bet is profitable. It is up to you what the odds you are playing will be. If you try to have a small profit then you can increase the bet. But if you chance bigger profits then the odds are bigger. The strategy doesn't change however...

I'm not going to list out a few strategies to claim like these are all effective for profit making in gambling but I'm going to mention about what are the possibilities for your research.

The easiest strategy might have gone the most popular one hence it has become as a common strategy for any gambler like martingale strategy is doing with dicing sites. I mean your criteria for searching strategies based on easiest or popular will not work but what will work ? Your own strategy. You do not need to develop a strategy from scratch. But, you may go for modifying few parameters of few strategy and this may work for you for sometimes until your house will develop their side fix for your strategy.

I believe you may go for developing strategies for your sportbetting as there will be plenty of chances to crack there compared to other gambling. Still, just with knowledge on a sport and players, I do see many people are making easy money out of sportsbetting. Knowledge on sports in their most working strategy.

You got the point! Im aint saying martingale is the reason to win or lose and its indeed a strategy which do adds up some spice on playing gambling. The wrong thing here is that most people do use it up too much or simply rely on it  and pushes to make money on longer runs.

This differs from different gamblers, my easiest way to make profits in betting is going with the right odd irrespective of how huge or low it look. My last bet on soccer game was odd of 2.4 were which i was rest assured of the game, this game produce equivalent of 100$ on a single bet. Bet what you are sure of.

The easiest way to get instant benefits from gambling is to risk large amounts of money at low odds like 1.1x or even smaller than that. This will work at least once or twice unless we are very unlucky. To be honest, there won't be the easiest, simple and risk-free way to profit from gambling. Luck, capital and bravity to take the risk will be required!

I have been playing gambling, especially dice games. So far, I have been betting with a large enough capital to reduce the risk of defeat if I find lost strike many times and it works. one important thing to keep in mind I can't produce big profits in a day.

Agreed, it's hard *work*, but a fairly easy *process*.

OK, so this is a second strategy - maybe we can call it "Finding value".

I think this is maybe the hardest strategy for profitbale betting - you have to be consistently better than the sportsbook odd compilers (or, on a betting exchange like Betfair, you have to be consistently better than the market.. even harder!). This usually requires detailed knowledge of the sport or league, plus it requires good money management. And a strong psychology for dealing with the ups and downs. Not easy!

OK, this could be an option (call it "EVERYTHING ON RED").
This is super super easy :)
But not really a *profitable* betting strategy, so I don't think it counts as an answer to my question.
(But I think you agree!)

Easiest - I have one idea and it's popular for most and everyone can do this if they have free time. And this is getting referral to bet under your link which is very effective and an easy way to make profit through any casino that offers affiliate.

Having large capital would be good enough but it doesn't mean that the risk has been minimal. IMO, risk remains the same and it's up to you on how you're going to handle it co's you might lose the whole capital.

Gamblers will always gamble even they are losing until they loss all their money. In gambling, if you aren't have luck today, it absolutely you won't win. If that so, and if you are in good thinking you better stop it now before it end up nothing. Cause not all the time will be in favor to us and there is not easiest way of making profits in gambling.

I think we can do that if we have a large amount of money and we are ready to risk that money. But I don't believe that it will the easiest way to win much money. I will consider the easiest betting strategy that will work is we don't use any strategy, but we have luck, so we do not depend on any strategy to win. Besides that, no easiest profitable betting strategy will works unless you are lucky. But perhaps, in sports betting, we can make the easiest strategy to win especially if we know better the team. So I think you don't need to use any strategy to win the game, but you must have luck as that is the important thing in the gambling games.

OK, this is strategy #3: "Affiliate work".

This isn't *really* what I was thinking of - it is not a betting strategy... but let's include it. It's hard work, but there are some concrete steps to follow for making profit.

I hear what you're saying, but I don't think "luck" can count as a strategy!  ;)

And it will be very bad betting if we lose so big amount for such low odds LOL, I would prefer to use 1.5x up to 2x multiplier with smaller bet amount. I would bet 1000 satoshi with 2x instead of bet 10k satoshi with 1.1 (just example). Of course its all about preferences, and I have to agree that there is no "easiest" strategy. All strategies are the same, risk is always involved. Luck will be the one which make a strategy looks easy to win once we win, but once we are unlucky then we will call it hard strategy. :)

Might not be a popular advice, but if I have a big capital, I will just go bet big, all-in. If I got lucky then I will go out and exit. Just one hit with big bet and then you're done. Immediately exit and withdraw your winnings. At least for me, just doubling my money is already profitable, no need to look for bigger profits.

I guess this one good advice since this topic is strictly talk about profit and winnings and not the essence i have in gambling(tp enjoy and have fun)

Gambling is depend on luck and not on skills,specially when playing outside card games

Betting one at a time to chase your luck,then why not just bet all in and if we won then thanks God  and if not then just go home and try again next time

Stop struggling to win back the losses because this is the mostly reason why people stays loser for all their life in gambling world

Yes this isn't really a betting strategy but it's a 'profitable' way that you can take advantage of whenever you're into crypto casino's. One can have his/her own strategy to come up with for having the most active ones.

I've seen few success people with this strategy and this ain't for everyone but at least, you have other choice if ever someone failed to gamble. You have a way to recover for awhile if you're hardworking enough for this.

Arbitrage might be the easiest in a sense as you can see the returns that are available to you. The only thing is the margins can be tiny sometimes and you need to execute the bets quickly to maximise profits. Also, betting companies pick up on this rather quickly and they can ban you if they spot suspicious activity on your account.

Yes, that's a good point - the fact that you can quantify your edge (almost 'visualize' your profit) can help to make this profit strategy very transparent for the user.. which might make it 'easier' for many. But it has never been an option that has been interesting for me personally. I really like the 'romantic' idea of getting an edge using my better understanding of markets or sports.

I would like to suggest profit strategy #4: Trading on betting exchanges
This is when you make a bet in the expectation that the price will move and allow you to make the opposite bet ("lay" bet) at a good price. These two opposite bets, if made at the correct prices, lock in a risk-free profit, regardless of end result. It is easiest to do this on a betting exchange like Betfair where you can back and lay. But you *can* also do it on a sportsbook, most easily in markets where there are only two results possible. But really you need a proper betting exchange.

Anyway, it is a bit like day trading on stock markets - you are betting on the market movement, not the underlying fundamental. Not easy though!

This is a good link to explain more, on Betfair's own website:
https://betting.betfair.com/betfair-announcements/betting-apps/exchange-trading-for-beginners-290116-710.html (https://betting.betfair.com/betfair-announcements/betting-apps/exchange-trading-for-beginners-290116-710.html)

For sure, it can be profitable. Margins are small but if you understand how the affiliate business works, this can be a very good money maker.

I would say the easiest is to follow a tipster who has over 1000 bets in track with ROI bigger than 5%
most likely this tipster is really good and can maintain longterm profit , it's not 100% guaranteed but it's most likely

There are other ways as well to make money in gambling like trading or going for your own value picks , but these aren't easy and they require time to master so following a tipster is the easiest

Ah yes, this is a good one. It's probably the easiest insofar as the steps are obvious and require very little skill. I guess due diligence at the first step (finding a good tipster, as you say), is the hardest part.

So we have #5: Follow a tipster

The easiest strategy on gambling probably use martingale to playing dice because this is pretty easy to do so that everytime you lost then you can raise up the bets but unfortunately this is not long term strategy because i'm sure most of gamblers has been done use this atrategy and majority lost with deep pocket

yeh, martingale has been mentioned already. I really don't like calling it a *profitable* betting strategy cos you will always hit sportsbook/casino limits on the inevitable bad run... but we can put in for now.

#6: Martingale "strategy"

The only real way to gain a edge over the casino is card counting on blackjack.  But today it is very difficult and any sign of you doing it and casinos will ban you from playing.  It was a lot easier back in the old days when they only used one or two decks for blackjack but then they moved over to multiple decks.

Interesting call!
Never an easy strategy, not even back in the days.. and a good way to end up with some mob heavies putting a hammer to your appendages.
And not possible online.

Techniques and strategy with combination of luck in gambling is the most helpup to get win because with out harder to get win even if the gamblers full of skilled and techniques.

What do you mean by Betting to earn rewards from promotions and contest?can you share some sites that offers such?i guess i will be more interested on this kind than just bet in usual way since i have rested from gambling for a while.and it looks like you earn more than what you have lost.

Another thing i guess that theres no easy straegy in gambling for this needs luck to get goood profits

Yes, luck cannot count as a strategy, but as long as we have luck, we don't have to use strategy. Like I said before, I think you should try sports betting because you have a chance to win especially if you have much information about the game. But I don't think there is any easiest profitable betting strategy you can use because all games, including sports betting, needs luck inside the game so we can win those game.

I disagree. There are many people (but still, less than 1% of all bettors) who make money from sports betting, year after year. This is not because of luck.

Strategies will work always on betting but of course luck will also be there. I don’t think strategies in gambling can make easy money for you because its a pure luck when you are playing. If you want an easy money then do gamble everything you have so your chance of getting profit is high.

This thread is not about *easy* ways to be profitable in gambling. I think we all agree there is no easy long-term profit.

Instead, it was a light-hearted attempt to find the *easiest* profitable betting strategies.. (but still not 'easy'... probably 'hard' in fact!).

Every one of us has this personalize techniques that only fits us. For example, i am comfortable with a strategy where i save some in every win so that i can take home more even i already lose. This isnt easy for every one because they cannot control themselves and as long as the have money on their pocket, they cannot be stopped.

Every strategy will eventually loss because there is such effective strategy for gambling.
You can win big IF your guts meet luck at perfect time.

For example : I'm gamble 0.01 using 0.01% winning chance !

I believe gamblers from this community will no more consider martingale strategy as a strategy for their gambling. I mean to say martingale strategy has been cracked down some long time back itself and we should not consider it anymore as a strategy to try with our gambling. It is complete waste of time and energy along with losing our hard earned money.

Yes, the profitable betting strategy must be "staying away from gambling". Because, if you're not losing then that must be a biggest day in your gambling life. So, think about not even going for gambling so that you will not need to face any losses to make your perfect day of gambling ;D.

With the help of welcome offers (free bets) on different betting websites, combined with the 'lay' option (shorting) on the Betfair exchange, some users can make a lot of money. There are quite a few services you can use that find the best odds to make the greatest returns.

Yes, that's actually a form of Matched Betting or Bonus Arbitrage that you describe, That was my strategy #1 (see OP). Betfair's 'Lay' betting can definitely help with that strategy cos it helps you take the other side of the bonus bet (with a separate sportsbook) much more easily. Do you use Betfair at all cryptossi, or another betting exchange? I have used Betfair a lot in the past, mostly for soccer, but it's tough.... lots of smart money in those big markets...

Not generally, there are games that has no house edge, sports betting is one of them.
With your ability to cap games, you'll be profitable in the long run, as long as you know how to do proper bankroll management too.
No one can beat the house, that's only true on games like dice where there is an edge but on skilled based gambling, it's not applicable.

I agree, that's why I don't want to engage with dice games and the alike because I knew that it would be hard to. If we will permutate there are so many combinations possible thus having a small chance to win.

Another tip, prefer games where the fortune is in your hands like poker. You can earn bigger here (if you are only good of course) because you would be the one who control thr flow of your cards.

These people do not really do any serious analysis of sports events, this is not something what's you should do in the coffee shop by drinking and smoking all day. I agree that such people do not have a great chance of winning, if we compare them with serious players.

Serious player is person who have money, knowledge, and determination to succeed in something - and if you have all that, still you need a plan how to play/invest. For example if player bank is 1000$ ( it can be 100$), simply strategy for me would be to bet 100$ per ticket, max 3 events with odd around 10.00.

The reason for this is very simple - you have 10 tickets to play, and on each ticket you can get 1000$ of profit. So if you lose 9 time in the row (900$), and win with last ticket, you will get your bank back.

I try this method many times, and worst result was 3/10 won ticket, and best result was 8/10 won ticket.

In conclusion, if you are not capable to win once in 10 times, then it is better to leave betting.

Agree, with games that you can assess and have a better chance of winning, same like with sports gambling where your knowledge about the type of games will give you some comfort while choosing the winning team of your pick, though still luck  will bring you the winning bets, but much better
understanding of the following sets of events will give you much easier job.

Dice are actually more easier than any other luck based gambling games because you can set your winning chance at a higher percent though it can lessen your payout a little bit  .

The winning amount doesnt also based on the games you play but it depend on the capital or to the bet that you will put  .

@op , no theres no easy profitable strategy because all of them are the same . you can loose or win depending on how lucky you are   

The only strategy of winning gambling or dice games is Good Luck only. There is no information or knowledge required to do gambling and even a layman can easily gamble. As said earlier that gambling is Won by Luck only so the experience in gambling does not count much.

I am very sad about seeing people who still think there is a profitable strategy. Best profitable strategy you can have is to deposit a certain amount of bitcoin to a casino that you wouldn't mind losing (I prefer $50, it all depends according to peoples budget but I always said 5 packs of cigarettes is a good logic to wherever you live) and then pouring some favorite drink you have (I prefer wine but beer works too) and opening a music list (spotify works best) and while doing automated bets also talking on the chat with people and get to know them and befriend them and talk with them for weeks and chatting there.

This will result with you having a great and entertaining night which will not be profitable in money but you will profit from having a good night in your life, it helps to ease your stress and enjoy life which gives you bigger profits than just money.

"There's no such" I rephrased that for you.  ;)
And measuring the winning chance, I don't think it's possible for someone to calculate and measure it. There's no exact chance ofpercentage that you can win in gambling. Everyone has a lesser percentage than you have said, IMO.

Dice is a game of luck so probably you don't have any way to beat it on your own except becoming lucky.

Not betting is the best strategy :)

There is nothing as strategy at all when it comes to strategy , its just pure luck . If you are talking about sports betting then knowledge about the game can provide you edge to make a guess but well the risk is there , just not as much as Dice and lottery .

All people here say that betting and gambling is pure luck, then, therefore, I am right of what I am thinking. I think luck is about 90% and the rest are strategies and techniques, is not just easy to earn a profit in gambling and betting sometimes you may lose all your fund. And makes things worse if you've chased your losses and don't want to stop on it. Indeed, there's no easiest way of betting and gambling.

IMO, martiangle is the best way to make quick profit if you're play on dice.
If you play poker, you need bluff skill and the perfect time to make winnings.

Overall are usually suitable for short term trading and again it's all about LUCK

Poker is one of the few games that actually takes skill and isn't purely based on luck.

Martingale is good in theory but casinos always have max bet limits to prevent this strategy from working.  Also it just takes one bad luck streak before your betting large amounts to make a small gain.

I agree!


I don't agree! There are many sports bettors who profit year after year. They are not lucky, they are smart. They are good at evaluating sports events and good at money management. It is hard work.

This is great advice. Because only less than 1% of people can make consistent profit in sports betting or poker. So for the other 99% of people it should be seen as entertainment. If you see it as entertainment, then hopefully it will not be a terrible addiction that causes you damage and unhappiness.

Yes money management is also a key factor but that doesn't means you will not lose. It can result in either ways- Net Profit or Net Loss. Sportsbettors placing stakes on the basis of the confidence of their selection always end up making profits but luck factor also comes in between. Whatever they make over a year also contains some losing bets as well.

I am poor in ascertaining stakes and thus I always end up playing all-in when I get a bit careless in a try to overcome my loss.

I definitely accept your opinion because gambling means luck so gambling is a luck based game if you are doing it properly or not properly if you had a good time I love you will definitely got a huge amount of profit from your little investment so use gambling when you have think we are in the lucky situation then only it will be useful.

Sometimes i don't believe in luck especially if you know the truth behind all of this continuous winning because sometimes you have to think out of the box. It is either they were so smart, lucky or manipulating the outcome. Rich people could do that easily for the sake of profit don't they? Though i must agree with you too that money management is the key too for a successful strategy.

Sure, money management is never enough on its own. The first and most important requirement is to be able to identify "value" bets - that is, bets where the price is higher than it should be. Without that we cannot hope to be profitable.

OK, so here are the five *easiest* profitable betting strategies suggested on this thread:

#1 Matched Betting (Bonus Arbitrage)
#2 Finding Value Bets (know your sports, study hard, money management - basically being a pro!)
#3 Affiliate / Referral
#4 Trading on betting exchanges (trading to lock in a profit regardless of result)
#5 Follow a Tipster/Handicapper (probably pay for good tips)

(I ignored martingale or "put it all on red"... because they have no long term profit possibility).

Which one do people think is the easiest of those five? Let's try a poll..

Martingale will make sure one thing for you, it will make you lose money in the long term, it is perceived as a winning strategy but it is not. You can read many different stories about how Martingale fails.

Never pay for a tipster without carefully checking his history, sometimes it work sometimes it doesn't so in the end there is no such "easiest" strategy to win in gambling.

In my opinion  it is unfair to easily conclude that making strategies are pointless because at the end of the day you will lose. Strategies, even if it is as complicated as having mathematical calculations or as simple as a smart guess, are still beneficial. If you are losing then it could be either your strategy doesn't suit to your game or the problem is within in you. I mean, you will not really have a bright future even how effective your strategy is if you are a "One day rich man" or uncontrollably spend your money to buy not so important things — in short, not a wise money holder.

Sports betting involves skills beyond the lucks but do you also accept that it involves lot of cheating to make the game on their sides.
Match fixing is one of the problem we will face on sport bets and you need to follow the big better to kniw what is going to happen.

It is important to know what we would like to do our life not just for today or tomorrow but for the long term goal. Many were not properly oriented on how to be wise in budgeting, spending too much more than of what we've got will end up nothing.
It just like of what we do in gambling, we need to have a strategic planning in order to win the competition but it is sad to know that gambling isn't winning all the time unlike we do in investing. Better not to be greatly involve in gambling cause it won't give more profits to us.

I agree somehow but these scenarios are occasional which only happens especially in the Finals/title fights of every game (IMO). But if we are talking to a simple match, I think a particular investor will not invest so much money just for fixing a match because it is not practical to do at all.

No, there are some cases where an individual got so rich because of gambling, just look on the most popular poker stars in the world. However, not all the people got the same perspective. It is inevitable to see people engaging with gambling simply because of one reason — source of "easy money" and that's very sad to know.

But nonetheless I also believe the same thing. For me, gambling is not advisable to set as a primary source of income; working for a job or doing a business are still the best.

I personally believe however, that doing bets based on outcomes in sports or something like that is pretty close to being skill-related since you can study certain patterns that can potentially increase your chances of winning substantially.

Of course if you can bring a lot of traffic, referral is a no-brainer but i don't think that it is considered gambling more than in the sense you don't know how many results you will get and when.

Mostly strategy does not work in the games like slot machines , roulette etc as those are more of the luck based games . Instead in cards games like poker it requires strategy and experience to win the games . So one should be playing for fun which is best thing to do .

Strategies are just for the reason of beating our opponent in term of knowledge hence luck based games will not allow to have better edge through strategies. Strategies may work if it is new and not popular. It means a newly innovated strategy by you may work for you. When you publish that then more people will follow that including gambling sites. This may be a reason why we are not able to have a long term successful strategies.

I assume there might be some big amount of strategies are existing among gamblers but they might be using on their own gambling so that they are able to crack maximum benefits. This is just a wild guess and I may be wrong as many people here are sharing like strategies are not enough versatile against gambling house's coding.

i think the most profitable strategy to win with bets is scalping on live matches, example soccer game team a win on team b for 3-0 and missing 5 minutes at the end the odds are low but the chances of winning are high then i bet a lot on the team a...

I do believe that some people can be successful in sports betting but it requires a lot of knowledge and research.  Additionally you need a large bankroll to counter any unlucky streaks.

Having a deep bankroll to covered up those mistakes and unfortunate things that happen will bring you better chance to achieved, you can bet according to your knowledge and if ever you did something wrong you can go back and try recovering after assessing the next events, it can only be easy when you have good inputs with the type of games you play.

I think there is a lot of cheating/match fixing used by *some* long-term winning sports bettors (especially in e.g. tennis, cricket, minor league soccer). But I think a significant proportion of long-term winning sports bettors do ot cheat. Although... for horse racing.. it depends what you mean by cheating... lol.

Agreed. I probably shouldn't have allowed referral/affiliate work into the final list.. it is *not* gambling/betting as you say. It is business.

The odds are low means you will not get good multiplier for your money. In some worst cases you may get back exact your same betting money excluding the fee for houses and tx. I understand that your strategy is more focusing on NOT TO LOSS rather than making big profits. With this reasons, I may opt for staying away so that I will assume my money is not undergoing any hard risks.

Yes referral links isn't really a gambling though it's coming from the casino but it's not. No money capital/bankroll is associated with for the referror to gamble but the referral has to gamble.

It's the easiest for me, not dice, not slots and other games. Sports betting for me is the easiest if you know the sports, the teams and the news and current events for that specific sports that you are betting.

Hmm. I thought that 'scalping' meant making very quick trades, to profit from very small price changes. Really just a form of High-Frequency Trading (HFT). But this is so much easier on a betting exchange (like Betfair) where you can take both sides of a bet - Back and Lay. If just using sportsbooks, scalping gets so much harder (but not impossible, I guess). This article covers it pretty well - https://punter2pro.com/make-steady-income-scalping-betting-exchanges/ (https://punter2pro.com/make-steady-income-scalping-betting-exchanges/).

Anyway, I think 'scalping' is already covered as a strategy by the option "Trading on betting exchanges in the poll I made.

bitcoin-shark.. it sounds like you are describing an "all on red" or "lump the long odds on" strategy. Has it been profitable for you?

Yes that was totally a good profitable betting strategy since just what like you have said, it does not really in need of special skills but still you have to be that wise enough on making good decisions so that success will come along your way and not the other way around because betting games are just like a mathematical application of how probability game rules in our life because the possibility was always playing into a 50:50 margin whether you will loose or you will gain. Even you do not need that much skill for it, presence of mind and doing strategic moves will still be the key on the play of gambling for you to be able to earn doing in that way. Ofcourse there are lots of existing betting games out there now that you can also do it online. Good thing is that there are online casinos and gambling sites which offers services such as having bonuses and rewards for those players who have the first time getting into touch with them just what like I have experienced into my online casino I am currently in which offers discount on deposits and deposit bonus for your first deposit. The discount is continuously increasing in a matter by means of you increasing the frequency of your deposits that can be made also by means of cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin making it more convenient, fun, interesting and enjoyable playing gambling and online casinos.

Even small margins are really good if you are just focusing on lower risk as possible but as said this might end up to be break even or even lose up due to fees.
Yes, it is easy but I doubt there are still bettors doesn't really have much idea on how to done this thing between bookies.

There is no really skill needed in getting in touch with gambling because wise men are tough enough to surpass all the challenges in the game to win it all around. But what I got interested is the increasing discount when it comes to deposit that you have been telling for because it was really a great deal.

Do you believe knowledge and research can beat the randomness in the game?
Please consider reading the following piece:

http://www.gamblingfactsandfictions.com/id25.htm

In short version:

You must understand that even if the vastly remote, basically impossible chance existed that you were a bit smarter than the Las Vegas oddsmakers, you would still lose anyway because of the house edge. Your bankroll would still get ground out. But get back to reality. The chance of you being smarter than the Las Vegas bookies or the local illegal bookies who get their odds from Las Vegas, to overcome the house edge, just simply is not going to be possible. So forget about it!

Sports betting, color games are most familliar games from getting profited, but we profited from those games but not that big. It is also just for having fun, and really not to make money because for me it is still not easy to earn money through gambling cause most of the time it is base on luck not more on strategies.

It's true, there is no way for easy money. But sports bet are sometimes easy to win. Those most of the times can easily guessed but still there is a risk of losing a big money if a normal team lose.

That was totally true. I guess we both agree with each others idea. Yes the online casino I have been into do offer that great deal of discount for increasing deposit for its players to enjoy. If you want to find out more, just check it right HERE (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm)

Some reasonable points there. And no one is saying it's easy... but there are many people who are better at pricing up than the oddsmakers. And many people who turn a long-term profit on sports betting (but still less than 1% of all bettors). There are some asymmetries that help the bettor - a bettor does not have to bet on every game/event/match, but an oddsmaker has to give prices to every match. With focus and patience, the sports bettor can choose to bet ONLY when he thinks he is getting 'value' (better odds than they should be).

To read about just one pro bettor:
https://www.businessinsider.com/inside-story-star-lizard-tony-bloom-2016-2?r=US&IR=T&IR=T (https://www.businessinsider.com/inside-story-star-lizard-tony-bloom-2016-2?r=US&IR=T&IR=T)

But - to repeat - THIS IS NOT EASY!
Do not kid yourself you can do it! Keep records of your betting and you will know if you are a winner or loser in the long-term. You are probably a loser, but that is OK, as long as you do not bet too much, only for fun.

If easy way exist inside gambling maybe all the gambling house are all gone now, they won't be able to maintained the bankroll as profitable strategy
will kill them all, gamblers who have this method will rape the casino and sucked everything inside the house, but in reality there's no such thing it's all
about luck and how you will manage your stay keeping the luck that you have.

This is what I do. It is not as easy as it sounds but I am able to make some profit since I am fun of football and know which team to bet on.
It is a little profitbut at least am having more fun when watching football matchs.

I never liked the martingale technique, besides, most of the casinos consider it as cheating.

I guess it depends how you look at it.  The time you spend is valuable and it is a gamble that your time will be worthwhile or not.  Not everything should be looked at in terms of money.

Good on you! Value betting is for the purists :)
And, like you say, having made a judgement yourself makes it even more fun when you watch the match.

Yes, that is one way of looking at it. But in that sense, everything we do in life is a gamble  ;D

When you are not at all looking for money making from gambling then there will be no need of looking for any profitable betting strategy as per this discussion. I agree profit making from gambling is not at all possible still many gamblers keep on trying for that. For them money is everything in gambling and I believe they will never accept for not looking everything in terms of money in gambling.

I haven't tried martingale, when I'm new to this forum it was the first time that I have read. And after reading more post and reactions about it, I don't think that it's suitable for everyone. Most of those opinions said that it's not really worth for someone who gambles and that's why I haven't tried it. To the new gamblers there, you shouldn't try it but if you insist, charge to experience but the most important part was already given and told that you shouldn't.

Everything we do is a gamble.

That is the saying I always think when I was getting to the stage where in I really need to man up. Every thing you decided to do is a gamble and everything you picked will lead to a consequence and there is a risk on it. That is the same in gambling but we are just risking money though there are consequences on what will happen. In terms of strategy, I guess there is a lot of things you can do but I doubt that it will be a sure profit as we all know there is still a risk and consequence on what we will be doing and choosing.

You should not try it, it's a bad strategy in gambling and you will only make yourself loss in the long run.
When I was still greedy in gambling, I used employ that technique but I never gave me a good return in the long run, in fact it only
made me loss way above my limit, because sometimes you loss your emotion and martingale is really a killer technique.

Yes I'm aware of it and I'm not going to try it. I'm listening to the suggestions that I've read here in the forum. I'm obedient enough not to try a strategy that has a lot of negative experience and opinions.
Thanks for sharing all of your experience about martingale, better don't add to the losing experience.

Gambling games are unpredictable, sports betting types are more influenced by luck. We must admit that in the world of gambling, nothing is certain. Everything in the gambling world is very difficult to predict. Never expect too much because basically gambling is a way to get pleasure. We will not benefit because the main thing is to get pleasure and it is not an advantage in the form of money.

Yes, it is difficult to predict. However, for example in sports betting, there are statistics with players performance, history etc which can give you some indicators on what you will play. You describe gambling like it is something random, but it isn't. Playing with the odds is what makes gambling addictive and people stop being prudent and lose money.

With good anticipation and if you really watching the type of games you bet with, you can take the advantage of your good knowledge regarding to any sports gambling that you are engaged, odds affects you since challenge is there with what you think will perform well against the tempting odds that you are seeing around.

The easiest profitable sports betting strategy is knowing the sports you're good at which you know the rules of the game inside out, knowing when to stop because sport fever is hard to control and never bet to recover losses. However, affiliate and referral strategy is also the best since it require no investment but it will only work if ones have the group of people that love gambling.

Sorry about your losses but I guess, that's one of the risks that we have to take on gambling. Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose. By the way have you tried Slot of Money in Vegas Casino (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm)? The profit is not that much and so is the loss plus it's really enjoyable too.

bumping this to get the some more poll votes...

Haha I vote for betting. The most effortless approach to get moment profits by betting is to chance a lot of cash at low chances like two or much littler than that which resembles 1.5 odds sort of that. This will work at any rate more than once except if we are unfortunate.
To be completely forthright, there won't be the most straightforward, basic and hazard free approach to benefit from betting. Good fortune, capital and bravity to go out on a limb will be required

Before I knew how to play sport betting often depending on a tipster there were not many wins that I got from them. So over time by trying to make my own bet, I am more sure of course by taking more potential team even though the odds are low.

Affiliates is not that bad but of course its not about betting anymore, maybe it can just as an other source of income through gambling site. Well, if there's an easiest way to make profit on betting, I think no one is losing now. Technically, this poll can help but we know betting is just a game of luck between the teams so don't depend to anyone.

Having good strategies can just help you on your decision but I think it will not be the easiest way to earn in betting. You can study everything about sports or what, but if that team is not lucky enough to win, you will still lose the money. You can look for some bet that is working with the great teams, its easy to find which is better there.

I agree. *Following* a tipster is easy... but finding a *good* one is not easy. And usually expensive.
I tried following a horse racing tipster about 20 years ago... it did not end well.

At least if you make your own judgements, you have no one to blame but yourself. It also makes the matches more interesting to watch!

No, it's not betting any more, you are right. Probably I should have removed that option for the poll....

Yes, that is the reason that I mostly prefer to play gambling on cricket matches. I have good knowledge about most of the cricket teams and about the players, therefore I mostly give preference to sports gambling and specially to cricket matches.

I really feel confidence while playing gambling on cricket, Big bash, IPL and PSL are my favorite league to play gambling on.

Right. The good thing about that is your chances are much better the more familiar you are with where you're betting at. And you're enjoying it more at the same time. And you get to bet not against the house, which of course doesn't give you a good chance of winning, but against actual players and games.

Your confidences bringing you big profits ? I mean are you able to produce profits out of your knowledge on cricket ? Because, our knowledge has nothing to do for win/loss of a team on a particular day as it is purely depend on performance of that team which is influenced by many factors and we cannot list them all. In negative side, a match fixing may collapse all your dreams too.

But, I like your strategy of making use of your interested area to gamble with. It may be profitable or not but I am sure that you must be doing it with wholehearted as you might be enjoying cricket and betting along the side. This sounds great strategy to have.

Since gambling is very risky in will prefer to do affiliated program on gambling sites instead of putting in money into gambling that I know the odd is against me.  To win in gambling is not an easy task and you have to be extremely lucky to win.

Participating in affiliates program cannot be a betting/gambling strategy still I agree it might be a easiest way to make profits from gambling industry. You should confuse gambling and its business. If you look deeper, owning a gambling house might be more profitable than affiliate programs still these things are just out of topic as we are all here to discuss about gambling and definitely not gambling business.

In my experience, buying tips for sportsbetting from a house of experienced tipsters will be more effective to generate easy money.  It might be a method and cannot be a strategy as it is dealing with profit making and not focusing on our activities in gambling.

 Finding Value Bets (know your sports, study hard, money management - basically being a pro!)  that is my strategy all the time

Yeah, in that way it will keep you in control not to lose, forcing you to bet on sports that you don't know well will also harm you even though it does not always end in regret, because the luck factor greatly affects by finding a good bet value.

Following a tipster sometimes isn't worth it but if you are a typical gambler that doesn't fully depend to a tipster, it's a good idea to take their predictions.

Like you will get those important predictions that you think is good to bet with but if you think its not,then simply don't.

just like sport betting some tipsters aren't always right. if you see the track record of course they have lost several times
right. if you want more chance of win you can buy f*xed score. but you have dare to take risks for this

Yes, not all the time they are right.

It's all about the accuracy and you can depend with them, if win is higher than losses then the accuracy of that tipster is good to follow.

Accuracy is very important for following a certain tipster and if you are a bettor you will find these tips very interesting.You can follow out specially if there
are analysis on each bets being given.There are lots of tipster as of this moment having 60-80% winning percentage which is actually good where you can
tail them up if you wanted to.

Sorry, you make it sound like it's easy finding a profitable tipster to follow. It isn't.

Also, even if you did find a tipster with "60-80% winning percentage", you would still be losing if you were backing at average odds of e.g. 1.20.

I suggest you think about this a bit more carefully for your own sake.

Sports betting is also my favorite betting as it gives me maximum profit. If we have good knowledge of the teams which can easily bet on the right team and in most cases will win the bets.

No doubt even having good knowledge and experience in a particular format of gambling, no one can claim that he can surely make and win every bet. But, it is also a fact that sports betting require a good knowledge about the teams you are going to put bet on, which cannot give assure you your winning but at least can increase the chance of winning the bet on the bases of your knowledge and good analysis. So, it’s no doubt a good and positive point if a person have good knowledge and personal experience of sports games.

I guess more than 50% is already enough for someone that isn't aware of this kind of tipping.

But as much as possible, if you are into tipsters at the same time do your own research about the match that you are betting.

is winning the vote!!!

Looks like being a pro is the best way and you must know who you are betting on with good high paying odds. Hmmm.

What bitcoin bet sites does everyone use?

I'm not sure I agree. I think if you have taken time to choose a good, profitable tipster, you should probably just stick with their tips. If you mix in your own research.... then you'll end up sometimes not following the tipster... which makes it all pointless.

The affiliate program is not included in gambling, but it's a way to make money in the gambling business. I don't think that there is the easiest strategy in gambling. I agree that winning in gambling is not easy and not all gamblers can win. But we might get lose more and more if we are staying in the places for a long time.

For now i used strategy of to be house on eosbet in gambling games and it was worked, unfortunatelly i just made a little of money because my profit based on the gambling house of profit and does not mean there is no risk losing of money. The other way to make money in cryptocurrencies i was trading alternatives coins and it was not easy way to making of money because we must know how to read candle chart to making prediction of the price.

Most sites have affiliate program, it's their way to promote their business, it's the easiest way if you are not looking for bigger profit.
No risk in affiliate program but you need to spend more time marketing the site your are promoting and based on experience, it does not generate good profit.

Firstly, every business or investment have it own risk involving but i will advice you to be more careful because the EOS betting dApp had a hack issue last year and I'm not sure if it totally safe now.
Aside that, I believed setting limit and stick to it via match betting is the best/easier profitable betting strategy.

You can always stick to them in thick and thin times.

It's just a tip that I've said that you can do your own research and not fully depending on them. At the end of the day, you are still the one to decide whether you want to follow him or not.

Er.... how do you know when the thin times are coming and stop following?
And... how do you know when the thick times are coming back and start following again?

Good point. I read about some of the problems EOS has had. It seems like a pretty 'messy' blockchain right now, if you know what I mean? It does feel like it has some way to go before maturing re security flaws etc.

In sports betting, you have a lot of resources to help you pick the right team to place your bets, there are sports analysts who posts articles about their insights on an upcoming game and you can also use the odds to your advantage. You can also follow tipsters advise, just make sure that before you place your bet you also checked how many wins vs losses that the tipster already made.

In thin times, if most of their predictions aren't going to your expectations.

Thick times, when you have been part of his successful predictions because you have been following his picks.

Whatever the type of game, in the gambling world everything can happen. Many things cannot be predicted because dependence on a lucky role is very vital. gambling games, in my opinion, are just entertainment, do not consider it too serene because whatever strategy we do, it will have no effect.

Thick times follow thin times randomly... and vice versa.
If you use that line of thinking you will always be reacting to random 'signals' (i.e. non-signals)...

Random signals / predictions, as what I've been saying it's up to you and you can stick to them if you wish.

Whether in thin times or thick times, it's always your decision to follow them or not through those times.

Actually income from Affilate can be very profitable, without gambling and without risk, you can get profit. it's a good income for you,
my friend can get 0.01 btc perweek just from gambling referrals. but it takes hard work for that right

Where does one get these random signals from? Do they buy it or predict it themselves? I believe random signals are as random as they can be and one doesn't need to depend on them when your precious money is involved. Its a different thing if you're getting them from legit sources.

0.01 is not worth the efforts put into affiliate marketing. You can gamble and make more money instead of ofcourse with much more risks involved. If you look at it, affiliate marketing has nothing to do with any betting or gambling strategy.

If you compare it with income in gambling which can for several times bigger, of course 0.01 btc, is a small amount. but that income is huge in affilate job, after that you don't need to work anymore, and you can make a profit every week. yeah in general there is nothing to do with gambling strategy. but that's an easiest profit in the world of gambling

It's the guy that connected "thick and thin times" to random signals from a tipster.

Yep, random signals as random that you can't depend on it.

If we decide to use your approach to tipsters, we'll need to find a second tipster to tell us if the first tipster is in a thick or thin time  ;D

Now, it's getting complicated.  ;D One thing I can conclude from this, you really have no assurance also from those tipsters. Just stick to your bets and not depend on these people, where the main aim is also to earn money.

That will be the easiest way to earn money, but it's hard to do because we need to promote the affiliate links in many websites and hope that there is one or two people will join.

I have been there in the past to promote some product on many websites, and I got a good result. I don't think that right now, and it will be easy since Google makes a different calculation to decide which websites that is deserve on the first page in the search engine.

I pretty much agree with this. It *is* possible to find profitable tipsters... but not easy. And then you have to *stick* with them, through thick and thin... because you don't know when the thick and thin periods start and stop!

I used a tipster once, many many years ago... it was a good lesson. I will never use a tipster again.

I think you really misunderstood the 'thin and thick' thingy I mentioned.

But if you think that approach is going to have a better result, you may do as you please.

Random signals means you also needs to pay attentions in each bets that you'll going to follow as things might not be good for you, it's up to the
bettors luck, if they can find the good pick that has been selected to be shared as a winning tips  coming from people who so called expert about
the game that they are playing.

No assurance as it is a wild guess from followers to pick one from those tips around.

Yes, I don't really understand your point about following tipsters in thick times and then not following them in thin times. I can't see how this can be a good idea. But maybe I am misunderstanding you.

Regardless, nice discussing with you and good luck to you in the future!

I agree with you, earning 0.01 BTC/week just from your referrals is an amazing achievement. But I personally can't imaging how much work does it take for getting so many affiliates, there must be thousands of them. Or it can be a couple or even just one high roller, but how that income can be steady in that case? If it's your friend, can you please share more details on that? Because it looks unbelievable.

Wehn someone doing referral as their only job they they can earn it and when the person have many users then hitting of high rollers are always possible but it is not a regular income and it can't be considered as strategy of betting,it is one way to earn money.

This should really be the type of discussion that people should be engaging here. You might understood me and I might not get your point however, it's still depends on how we respect each other's opinion.

Good luck to your future endeavors too!

Most of the people I know that are successful with affiliate programs have high numbers of referrals and don't have very many highrollers referred; I only remember asking about how much those people made total through referral programs, though I expect if one were to be earning a consistent 0.01BTC per week or something of the sort it's likely from a high number of referrals gambling rather than one or two highrollers. Still very impressive considering I've only managed to get a fraction of that per month with refs.

Exactly, i am also surprised to hear that anyone can earn 0.01 BTC/week from referrals only.  It means that he must have a massive amount of active referrals which together give you this much amount of passive income.
I have tried to earn from referrals but never succeed to gain good money from it.

The number of referrals can be varied and it depends on how much they use the money to gamble. I am sure that they always spread about the website using their affiliates link to many websites including in social media because, in social media, they can get tons of people who will interest to play gambling.

The income will also vary because not all people using big money to gamble but the chance to make a big buck will always there. But personally, I cannot imagine if he/she can get 0.01btc/week because that is a nice passive income if he/she can get that money from affiliates. I am curious too like you.

There are different terms regarding referrals on various sites, but normally your affiliates have to wager around 10 BTC so that you could earn 0.01 BTC from them (0.1% of wagered amount) . Some sites offer better percentage (0.4% of wagered amount) but they have higher house edge too so people are reluctant to play there a lot. Anyway, 10 BTC/week is something hard to imagine for me, because I wagered only around 1.5 BTC on PD during several years of being there. So, yeah, we'll see what's IMark's reply is going to be like.

Interesting info about affiliate, thank you (and previous posters). This is not something I have expereince with, but it seems to me that you need to find a way to scale this up for it to be worth the time. And there are so many big actors doing this now. Anyone heard of Better Collective? They are sports betting affiliate and just did an IPO (not ICO!). So there is big money there.. but I guess the small guys are getting squeezed out... as usual.

I've never heard of Better Collective before, so I googled it, and from what I saw, it's a company that specializes on providing various useful information for online gamblers, such as which gambling site you can trust, where you can find better odds for the event you are interested in, betting tips etc. But I don't think they can help you in getting more affiliates(those you can passively earn from) because this is a field where no-one can help you except for yourself.

I think martingale would be the easiest profitable betting strategy,
But you should always control yourself and always limit your bets the house would surely burn you down.

That will too hard to get a people who want to deposit 10btc, isn't it? I think many people will deposit less than 1 btc and it does not give us much revenue from them, but it could be possible to get a big earning if we have more than 100 people as our referral and each of them can deposit at least 0.001 btc ;D

But do you think if we make a strategy to give them a reward for people who can deposit more than 0.01, we can share 10% of the revenue so they can get cashback? I think it could work too, right?

Yes, let's we wait for IMark reply.

Unfortunatley matched betting and betting exchanges are not available in my country and somehow I can't signup to the british websites that offer such services.Those are the "easiest" betting strategies if you ask me.Doing affiliate marketing for betting websites is too competitive and you have to pay for advertising/traffic.

Better Collective *are* affiliate marketers. Like most big affiliate marketers these days, they try to attract users by providing good content (info, tips, reviews, etc as you say). And then they refer these users to open new sportsbook accounts.... and the sportsbooks give them affiliate fees in return.


No, you're right - because they are trying to get the affiliate refers for themselves... that's how they make money!

It's frustrating that betting exchanges aren't accessible for many people, and especially that they are not really available for crypto betting. Agree with you that affiliate is really really hard work (not that I have any experience, but I assume it is a very dense, low-margin industry unless you are operating at scale).

Actually, at least one guy I know from this forum has done this before. He was promising, while providing his ref link, that he'd share 50% of the earned money with the referral he earned from. He'd managed to gain over 100 affiliates this way, and the amount he earned with all of them during around one year was 0.003 BTC, 0.0015 of which he shared with them. And I congratulated him on that because for me it was still a startling amount to earn from your affiliates. That's why it's hard for me to believe in that "0.01 BTC/week from refs" stuff.

Also my problem dealing with match betting, I'm also limited with available sports house that allowed my place to cater selected games where the
opportunities comes up, as if that particular strategy will work perfectly the matter that you need to settle is to avoid the house suspected you
dealing with such things.

Part of the house rules, if house finds suspicious act from your account they can easily freeze it and if they fully convince that you are doing arbs
they will completely suspend your account.

There’s a lot of ways to find a good bet, you can look at the odds to start with, don’t play if the odds are too low, unless it's a live bet, and your sure  of the outcome.
Always  look for the surprise, that’s here you can make most money.
I use statistic to find my bets and add some intuition.
I don’t have time to see all the games or read all the latest news, but the odds setters have, so it’s already a part of the odds when you bet.

I chose value bets because my strategy of gambling is money management in case I will lose during the play then it is just a small amount of money. We should have a mindset that we limit how much we gamble and we should make a budget on how much we can afford to lose.

There are people who live from the profit they make by sports betting while you cannot see much gamblers who play at casinos with a steady income every month to sustain their needs. Of course not every can do it, but my point is that its possible and you should do a little research before judging it like that.

Yes so many people are earning in gambling to live their life and they are totally dependent on gambling profit, I am gambling in one of casino but before investing my money for gambling I make sure I know all the rules and try my best to avoid any kind of mistake that can push me towards lose, so that’s why my gambling strategy is to play well and never quit.

The martingale strategy is really good if you have the account balance to sustain it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martingale_(betting_system)

Very good? Sustain it?

These words arent really appropriate to tagged up with martingale system since this strategy is never been a sustainable thing.Sooner or later your whole
bankroll would be bust up when losing streaks hits you.Knowing that no unlimited bankroll can able to withstand a series of streaks.

Well of course you need to make your base bet very small in comparison to your ability to take a losing streak. Say 10 or 100 satoshi. If you are good with simple math and can calculate your odds you will have a rough idea of how many bets you can withstand until the odds start to turn against you.

Yes though, it is not full proof. No betting strategy is full proof and you must know your odds and when you should get out. :) Martingale can get risky really fast if you start your bet off with 1k satoshi or 10k satoshi. The (base bet) x 2 every loss compounds very quickly in a losing streak! You must definitely know what you are doing and still it holds a high risk rate. Although a 50/50 chance with a 1% house edge is much more simple than "going for broke" trying to hit a 2 million multiplier on hilo. :D

Better to switch for another system rather than of staying there.
I don't know how people appreciate gambling. Yes, we might consider those easy strategies in betting but the question is, if we are profitable enough by using it? Or just washing out our funds? It could be better to follow basic strategies in betting and using our instincts cause it have chances though.

Somehow this strategy is safe but the return of profit is not that big, so if ever someone has to do it slowly but surely this will be the best strategy. Though it won't guarantee a big return of profit and the risk is tiny compared to other strategies. Which is a bit hard to sustain since it has a higher risk yet low chances of winning, though the profit is quite big if you win.

You basically answered yourself on the poll :D
Finding Value Bets (know your sports, study hard, money management - basically being a pro!)
That way you will know what you are dealing with, you will have a more experienced gambling situation. Step up to future rolls history, by knowing what odds you can more likely achieve and eventually exclude yourself from an eventual bust rather then a newbie user.

I think finding value bets by studying but there's a time that i don't trust myself because of lack of experience but through experience and failures i may become a pro and learn how to study the value bets... but i think we're talking about the "Easiest" profitable betting strategy i may say that following a tipster is one of the easiest way to earn but make sure that the tipster should have a background and not just an ordinary tipster, there are tipster in this forum who gives tips and post their bets and show the results whether they lose or not but those tipster wins more than losing so i think they're reliable source for tips.

the way of getting success in gambling was not derived from anyone till now so the strategies are also been for temporary purpose you cannot get profit using some strategies in all the times so going with the flow of yourself will give the satisfaction with the gambling if you are getting a loss also.

It is explained well in this very article that losing all your bankroll with martingale is easier than one can imagine.
 

The thing is that in reality you can't have the account balance that would be enough to sustain martingale strategy because you never know what that amount should be. Even after losing 30 times in row betting with 50% win chance, your next bet has exactly 50% chance of being a winning one, and the pattern goes on and on infinitely.

Its not going to be easy at first but eventually in the long it will be easy, go for sports betting. Study well the sports that you want to pursue in betting, after studying and knowing each and every opponent or player in a team, you already ready have an upper hand to it.

The more knowledge you have in a sport the more chances of winning you have when it comes to sport betting.

Deposit funds that you can afford to loss, select the gambling event that you're familiar with. Now with all dependence play the game. If you're lucky you'll get back a big return from the spend amount, else it is lost forever. This is the only possible way for easy profiting, but winning isn't promised.

I think this strategy must have stopped working by now considering it is arbitrage related.
Arbitrage idea usually becomes unprofitable once it becomes  known by many people. 
Still works for anyone here?

Very much easy to say that you have big possibility of winning your bets with sports. But unexpected thing comes and handicaps are applicable within different scenarios. I wouldn't look to their statistics of their win and lose but I'll look to their performance and current status of their players for example in basketball. It's not always about their stats of winning and losing but it's overall performance like who's in and out for the next game.

There is no working strategy even different style like Martingale doesn't seems to work most of the times in dice. If you want to win, try different strategies and do not stick in only one strat because the system may read your betting style. If you want to win fast, try to bet all in. Lol but the moment you increase your bet especially when you all in, more chance that you will gonna lose than you win.

I voted because it's risk-free and you just need time and places where you can, post your referral link, who knows you can be earning a lot if you happen to recruit whales who bet a lot in gambling.

Martinagle does not work for people like use who have limited money always and the end result is quite obvious that you lose all the money playing that strategy generally. So better not to fall under such things which will put more pressure as you would want to play more and put more money in order to recover your past losses.

Indeed, affiliate / referral can be the best way and it is a risk-free way to benefit from the gambling business. But, frankly, it won't be easy to persuade people to play under our affiliate link. Hard work will determine whether we will get more affiliates or not. In addition, special skills are needed in persuading people, which certainly not everyone has that ability.

Martingale with relation to sports betting is a winning combo as long as you are doing your research. Combining Martingale with hedge betting is an even better strategy to minimize your risk and losses.

Getting affiliates for gambling is really tough even if you put in a ton of effort since they have to risk money and won't be doing it consistently obviously which is why you will never consistently through this method.

Yes affiliate or referral is risk free, you don't have to invest any amount of money but your time and effort shall be your investment.
You will be lucky if you find those most active referrals and are loyal to you. You can gain more of them by creating helpful article that redirects to your referral link.

This is better than going into gambling fully! You can actually refer people to casino, dice sites and another form of gambling and make money on their deposit instead of risk your own capital that you know are going to lose except you are very lucky. I have tried much gambling strategies and almost all of them do lose money in the long run and putting your hard-earned money in any recommended gamble's strategy is not the right thing to do.

If anyone is able to recruit referrals who are actively betting,this is the most effective way to always be in profit in gambling.This is very hard to do but professional marketers may do this for you at a cost you have to pay,they know where to get gamblers but they don't promise activity so still it remains very difficult to achieve this.

All of these gambling strategy are profitable in the long run but you need to have a plan and stick to it. The worst enemy of a sports bettor is emotions.
People can't resist to significantly increase their bets when they encounter a long losing streak. And people can't really manage to keep up their statistics when they are parallel betting on different events at the same time.

I never even considered to use martingale in sports betting. Then again, doesn't it take a lot of time to use in real world events?

I picked this oneit's important that you know what you are getting into, you know everything around it so you will have full control on all your bet, winnings, and control, like all the other they picked this option also.

The easiest way is to have inside information and maybe know about a player or team fixing a match or even a referee. 

I personally prefer sports betting over dice and other slot games. This has made me to spend only on sports games that I've gathered information. Most of the time people loss in sports betting when the odds were selected on a random basis as well without any information known regarding the teams or the players associated.

Myself used to wiat for the schedule and will be spending on that particular game. This will increase the chance of winning compared to regular spending on different games without knowing anything about the game.

Sports betting is easier for me to predict the outcome of the match, especially in live betting. After making concrete head to head analyze of the teams, the punter will have a picture on mind regarding the possible scored goals at the end of 90 minutes. Machine games are there for years and I never heard about the single ruined casino by gamblers. It is not impossible to overcome the house edge in sports betting, random selections on different games will heighten the winning bets. 

I am not sure have you believe match fixing is working on cryptocurrency gambling field. I have heard football matches, cricket, tennis and so on making match fixing but it is internally happening things.
We cannot speculate what the players and fixing team decided at the time of match going. I am really confusing how you can believe it in such way.

There are marketers that returning 90% of the referral profit and is taking 10% for the cut as profit.

It's a wise strategy and that's returning the favor after signing up under the referral link that you have given. But active referrals are rare these days, there are people that don't want others to earn from them.

Smart answer, the best way to win at gambling would be with money you got gifted just for usage and referrals, which is not always straight forward.  I do see a number of sites that give some kind of faucet available which means you cannot lose with that 'free bet' hence unlimited profits ?    You still have to win of course, but the strategy for that is in addition why its rarely simple or easy to win big.

Plenty of people are making an absolute killing with referrals dude.

If you have a large social network or are an influencer, it is quite possible to get several hundred referrals and earn some solid cash.

Why you don't use that? If you are good in sport betting, you can't always lose in many matches, and you will end in the end.

Voted refferal. You don't need to do anything when you got soms active refferals

Sports betting strategies that are often carried out by many people of course choose the mainstay team at stake by predicting the team score that we will choose, this is certainly not difficult because all we need to do is see the mainstay team game that we will choose so that the team really has great opportunity to win the game

Affiliate/referral could be the best profitable option as you do not need to risk your money but you need to work so hard to gain referrals. It seems simple but it is not that easy to work on affiliate program. If you have good places such as social media groups or website with many active members or visitors regularly then it will be a good start to earn something from the affiliate program.
There must be one more option on the poll which is "bankroll investment", I think it is also good option for making profit from gambling although it is also risky but it worth to try especially if you have good amount of money.

As for me I also choose sports wagering systems that are regularly done by numerous individuals obviously choose by anticipating the group score that we will going to pick. With this we can achieve a better betting set play that could provide us the proper handling of our group preferences.
This is absolutely not troublesome the fact that we should simply observe the pillar group game that we will pick. This strategy of each group truly has extraordinary chance to win successfully.

I too specialize in sports betting, football to be precise, but even at that there is no strategy that works all of the time,even with adequate knowledge of the teams and the game, an upset can always happen and lead to loss.

That's the bad side of gambling, nothing is 100 percent certain, but what i do is to study the both teams, their head to head performances,last five meetings, position on the table etc
When i put out all this, i hence have a hint of who's most likely to win, like i said earlier this doesn't mean it'll work always.

Yes, even when we're good with the team and the players into it we can predict for a win and the same too fails when we don't have luck. To this going with the lowest odds will be getting higher win percentage compared to the choice of picking the higher odds. Even this doesn't work cent percent with every game.

Nice strategy, not bad but can also be effective. No need to be an expert just need to take time and follow the team or the league itself to get insights and potential news on what to bet with each of their next matches.

Eventually the arbitrage will not work with free bonus as the companies withdraw their offers.    If you use it alot they pick up on the sporadic usage of the account and its no longer possible, also many of these offers are for brand new players not so much the people who continually only use offers.
Its tricky with alot of small print to it apparently but nice to start for sure.

You are right, and every gambling games will depend on the luck itself so no matter you say you have the best strategy for playing gambling in any games, you still need the luck to win. The strategy itself needs to modify from time to time so your chance to win will bigger and at least, you can hope that you can win the games. I don't think that there is an easiest profitable betting strategy will available to use because you will never know when you can win in the gambling games.

The most convenient and easiest profitable betting strategy I usually adopts is the second option  as a soccer fan I followed English Premier league thus I study the way some of the team plays particularly away and home matches hence I can place my bet having studied some of the team sure wins especially the top team like Man City and Liverpool however the odd is small three to four accumulated odds usually favors me while playing with the amount of money I can afford to lose thus ensuring well detailed money management a win ensures another source of income for me and  this is now much easier with bookies that offers cryptos for deposits and withdrawal.

On pure luck-based games there is no such thing as an effective strategy, all you can do is minimize losses.

That being said, sports betting and P2P betting is a whole different story. Simply knowing your stuff can go a long way.

A lot of people think they know what they are talking about, but they really don't, which leads them having a W/L lower than 50%

You have to be careful with this line of thought because at the end of the day sports gambling is just as random as dice. Sure you may feel like you are making informed decisions, but it’s a false sense of security.

It seems to me that you can not be a true expert in all sports.  Thus, if someone is confident in his results in this way, he is very much mistaken.  It is always necessary to control and study only one sport, as well as all the teams and people who participate in this sport.  It is then that you can make certain conclusions and predictions that make it possible to make the right bet, which will lead to good results.

It`s impossible to be an expert in all sports, professional gamblers are experts for specific leagues or teams, in individual sports for specific players. With knowing more about players and their capabilities it`s easier to make a bet, and with that chances for making a profit are higher, but it`s gambling, there are no guarantees.
In my experience, there is no "the easiest" profitable betting strategy. Every time we make a bet we are risking, risk and profit are determined by odds. Professionals consider so many factors before making a bet, with that, they have more chances for making a profit.

The easiest betting strategy in my opinion is to select each time one or two matches that have odds around 1.70 each and bet it with a considerable amount that will give you the profit that you have targeted. This way you minimize the risk of losing your bet as you have only selected two matches.

Focusing with one sports where you have a much wider knowledge can bring a much better results, you can have higher chance to pick the right games and players to support as you have longer time to review each events that you are very familiar with, pro gamblers don't need a lots of bet to make but a solid one that can give them higher chance to win.

Well, gambling platforms will always understand the strategies we use, I strongly believe that they have algorithms that are good enough to read the strategy of each bet. Therefore there is no good strategy in gambling, our strategy works today but not for tomorrow.

I personally prefer gambling that has sports games, such as guessing scores, playing cards, and other sports games.

I'm not a bet-ter but a trader, so I'd say go with betting on altcoins when there's blood on the streets!
Many would argue with that but hey, you're asking about where to risk money, right?  ;)

I do not understand by just following a team how can you rightly predict the outcome of the match. Many a times, a team is good on paper but they actually do not perform well in the match. So we cannot judge and predict the match only the basis of team pervious performances.

Why not right? I'd also choose my altcoin to gamble especially is that is really the thing.

I do gamble but to be honest I can't stop especially if I am having a continuous loss. Most of the time I only use my free Btc or the one I get from the faucet but sometimes, it get worse. Also, I don't think there is an easiest profitable strategy since if there is one, a lot of gamblers are getting their free money on casinos and gambling sites.

I think sports betting is better compared to other gambling games because you have statistics that you can depend on or you have data that you can analyze and use to guarantee your win unlike the other betting games wherein it is more on luck.

altcoins are cheaper and fast for transfer , that makes them an ideal medium for gambling not only on gambling but also on trading  .

 there are what you call a profitable strategy but it does not mean that you will win all the time  . of course you can still loose because that is a gambling  .

 strategies can only become profitable if the person knows how to play the game and if he also knows how to stop whenever he already earn a suffcient amount of cryptos  .

Maybe a option to consider is the bankroll of the house. If the casino profits you will also benefit.

finding value bets

having knowledge about the game gives you an advantage. although it doesn't always work out your chances of winning is still increased.

It depends on the games you like the most as if you are good at those game which could be play in casino will be good. There are allot of gambling strategies we can use to bet in sports it will give profit in very short time. Sports betting is now a day very common, it is not that easy but doing some effort can make us expert sports betting person.

That's mean you are investing on that site too. If the gambler lose, your investment will grow as the site's profit as well. It's take very long time to make your investment become bigger, and there will be some whales who could make your investment's value decreased

Quite possible what you said but if considered this as a long term option your chances of making money is slightly better than playing those bets as luck untill favors you else you may just lose all your money and while in bank roll you would get some profits or may be lose some money but not all atleast.

But there is no guarantee we can earn a big profit because that will depends on the house itself. Investment with them can be another solution for people who wants to try to earn money, and they want to prevent themselves from the addicting. But remember that although the house will always win in a long time, you keep only earn a small amount. Just make sure you don't use big money to invest with them so you won't feel too sad if you are losing and I think investing is not the easiest profitable strategy.

List of popular Betting Strategies you can find here: http://sportstatist.com/category/betting-strategies/

  Well for me all games in gambling are skill based because if we are not able to make right prediction how will we be able to win. In this era it is not big deal to polish your skills in games it just need to keep searching and watching games. I think to win a betting game knowledge matters allot.

That's other way around and good also if you are an investor. You can invest to the bankroll casino and let the casino work for you but this isn't guaranteed profit for the people who are just for the short term.

This kind of commitment should be on long term.

Letting the gambling site work for you as a bankroll investor is one of the easiest profitable strategies but the short investments of it do guarantee an awesome profit if you invest into a gambling site which is not shady and have huge users since the house edge of most gambling site is 1%.

Luck is important but we cannot depend on luck, luck will not be on our side forever, sometimes there are days that make us very unlucky. Strategy is still a mainstay in betting, although it is not always a strategy that works well, but at least we always develop our strategy in every gambling algorithm update.

First and foremost, this is not betting at all. This is more of an investment. You are not actually betting in this set-up; you are simply taking profit out of the site or casino's income.

The best way to be profitable in betting is to put value to your bets. In other words, you are not just blindly betting. You are betting out of an informed analysis and assessment. Being a pro may not be the easiest way but since you are also putting profitability in consideration, it is certainly the best strategy.

As a guarantee, we can quickly make a profit by using double options for the matches we predict. Of course, there will always be a non-positive winning method, but in general it wins for the favorite team, and because we bet at the same time for the other favorite option, our odds are higher. In addition, by increasing these options on a single slip, we can increase the total rate. On the other hand, I recommend that you never try the last option you chose in the survey, because it always results in frustration.

Facts of gambling

• No strategy gets you assured profiting leading to the win
• Without luck you cannot succeed in gambling
• At any instance gambling should not be considered an earning source

Profitable betting strategy for dice

• Spend small amounts, this will help you examine your luck for a longer time
• If you win on few consecutive rolls take a break, don't rush up
• Don't increase the betting amount on experiencing continuous win for a short

Profitable betting strategy for Sports betting

• Always go with the low odds, this will increase the winning chance
• Collect data about the players ability as well as the past records
• Don't spend on unknown sports events on a random manner

What's been stated were the possible ways to lower the loss and increase winning probability
I never find any of the strategy developed gives perfect result of winning.

Unity choose the odds of getting to the situation by seeing how the matches going at that moment. Always feel free to pick the odds at minimum price of the time for one match.
For example early match started, choose the best team which you believe they will win and then in the second half you choose odds according to the game moment.

Just keep that game simple and bet as much as you can afford. There is no winning strategy in the gambling but profit can be managed to get a few gamble with the responsibility of not losing your money.

All depends on the type of gambling game you choose. if for a sportsbook I can trust someone really can get a stable profit with certain techniques such as parlay and martiangle because it is supported by player data and team data itself. but for dice I think the best strategy is to be patient in playing small nominal and very minimal value and martiangle with that. because basically dice is entirely based on luck. m

Just choose to have dice games, you won't fall so stressed with this type of betting and thinking about any strategy couldn't be required as long as you have the enough amount of crypto for betting. Any strategies can be workable, as long as you enjoyed very well then that' great. Lucky wins will come if you're doing it by fun and not being aggressive.

I thought of it before to gamble on sports betting site and bet only on those with good odds for higher chance of winning, but there are cases when even if the odds are good, your enemy is bad luck or an upset. Look at the case of Manny and Thurman, Manny is the underdog at first, then tables turned when the fight draws near.

By using the money we can afford, we can handle our emotions so we can avoid the sadness. The winning strategy will only work if we have luck in the game so we can win with ease. But I don't think that there are any easy strategy that will help us to win because of any strategy we have does not work if we do not have luck.

That's part of sportsbetting, the odds aren't really the sole basis for each match's victory. For the case of Pacman-Thurman.

Yes, Manny was the underdog but it suddenly changed prior to the date of the match. It's not a sure win whether the odds are good for high chance it's better to include some analysis too before betting.

But the Odds changed before the fight started and from favorable to Thurman week before the fight it favored Manny already so I think Odd still matters
Exactly nothing is indeed in every sports(unless cheating will take place)but atleast odds counts sometimes or most of the time rather

You should scout properly and see what different odds you are getting on separate markets and which one is getting your maximum confidence. Agreed sports betting is all whole different ball game since you have to analyze and do a lot of homework before you actually bet something. Some people do bet without thinking going with their favorite teams but that not logical at all.

At times I feel dice and other EV- games are like cheap thrills while sports poker and other EV+ games are for the grownups. Just my 2sats. ;D

I mean the victory about winning each match you bet, low/high odds has always equal chance of winning.

Well, okay I'll say that you are at least right with that.

Exactly mate that’s what happened,at first the majority and Odds highly favored Thurman and I also thought it will remain not until the fight go near when the table turns and Pacman become the new favorite

Yeah Sportsbet is one good place to put betting because they are one of the best in regards to Odd providing site.
Practically right lol.nice and plain advice 😂

Agree with you and also betting on sportbook is just more reasonable and not completely gambling. factor of the team and also the analysis of the player's influence on odds betting on the sportbook itself. and also i am quite active betting in sportsbook for big teams. and the most fun is when watching live after placing a bet. its give unique euforia and feels excited, even when lose.

Which is we always needed to do, the odd has been changed when the fight coming to it's near and even at the beginning Manny is the underdog but when the time for the match it's changes the everything there's no clear assurance you always need to pay attention with your bets selections to increase your chances to win.

The looks of Thurman and Manny is also happening in the other events. People could realize it once it came near and they are all in the assumption before. A lot of factors that people thinking that a young man is stronger and better enough versus the old ones. But they are actually wrong and they forgot about how this old man Manny fight in the ring.

I'll be honest here, the best way to gain money with gambling is to have your own gambling business, local or online, this way you can really gain money with it

If you do not consider this stated above, I would say with sport bets, being a pro, this is the only case I really see people gaining money in a sustainable way, they lose a lot but they know how to deal and at the end of the day have profits

I think there is still a lucky factor when we are gambling on Sportbet. I often see several a big teams defeated by a team that is in quality far above the average of the first team quality. Such as in the UCL at this years, most of a big team defeated by a team who is not be relied and I never thought that Tottenham managed to advance until the final stage. So, the quality team is not a benchmark to get win but there is another factor which can make the underdog team can defeat the big team.

Well surely it is good idea before getting in gambling it is very important to know how much you can afford to lose how much able you are to win. While getting in gambling make sure you are fair and expert with your choose games. Best game among all is to bet with different teams and games to bet with a team check their pervious history as well.

Making your own casino isn't that easy. There's a lot of factors that you must have before owning one, it's easy to say that it's profitable because it's true but the process of building up isn't just all about roses. It takes a lot of time to build trust and reputation to gather more gamblers to your casino but it's all worth it if you really want to make one and there's a capital invested through that process. But I've seen new casino's too that didn't became successful.

I think nothing beats this, that is why the majority of the participants voted for this option, you cannot expect a newbie to win a betting continuously without the necessary mentality and skills to go with it.

The easiest way for me is trusting your own luck, it would be easier to play in gambling if you're not thinking too much on how you'll multiply your money by winning every single round or roll, but of course just like the other way of winning in gambling, losses will always there, it can't be avoided since there is this thing called the "House Edge" to maintain the gambling site bankroll everyday.

Winning is not so easy in gambling, if you're mentally unprepared then you will just suffer in the end, you'll just lost all of your money or even worst.

Yes, everyone noticed that and before we all thought that this game will make Manny as underdog but it seems that it didn't through the odds.

  Yes you will see only few out there becoming underdogs when it comes to gambling. For example when it comes to poker, and when you put in all your money, you have a 40% chance to win at the game. Only few end up making it to the top tier and those are the crazy guys with some good amount of luck and experience which matters a lot in gambling.

That is why there is no easy way to win gambling, when you follow the choices of others who eventually turn around when approaching the match, which means that it is better to make your own analysis and be confident in your own choices, even if the odds change or whatever I am sure you will still stick to the choices that have been made by yourself and not only to follow the choices that many other gamblers choose.

How did you measured that 40% chance to win? I used to believe that there's a lesser chance but I have no exact measurement for it.

If the games are not base on pure of luck, then I think they can use strategies to win the game, but still, they need to have the luck to get the biggest win. We know that in gambling, we cannot rely on the strategy to get the chance of the win but we also need to realize about when we know that the luck comes to us which all of us don't know.

Sports betting is related the less on luck.
There are many statistics and teams' performance that indicate which would be the result of the game. But still, many people think that it is mostly based on luck and they don't design their strategy.

Poker isn't solely a luck based game.

But you haven't answered any strategy on what and how you should apply it.

There is no easy strategy, but by far sportsinvesting is the most profitable. Where you can actually even make a living off of it or create a second income. It takes years and years to bo successful. You might get lucky with few bets, but in the long run what matters, finding an edge of 2-5 % is hard, line movements and fake line movements, looking at the sharp money, on which team its coming in. Sometimes bookies shade the line, to get more public on either side. I have created my own algorithm system, that i will trust.

Sportsbetting has its ups and downs, bankroll management, keep calm on cold streaks and so on.

Learning all these things will take years to achieve apparently.

It can be though. Let me explain. It is estimated that about 200 million people worldwide place bets on Super Bowl alone. Forbes posted an article in 2013 saying that


and I don't think this number has become lower during the years passed since then. I think we can safely assume that hundreds of millions of people bet on sports each year.

And now to my point. With this many people participating in sports betting, we can statistically have many different cases. There can be hundreds of thousands for whom sports betting is profitable overall. And there can hundreds (it's one out of a million, remember?) of those who win almost every bet for several years in a row. We call them experts, but there is a possibility that they are just lucky people happened to be on the far edge of the Gaussian curve.

Not really. In a poker game, we don't just depend on luck because we can increase the chance to win if we have skills. But if we have high skills in the poker game but we don't have luck, then we cannot win because luck will take part to help him to win. So only the right person will get the winning in the gambling game.

I might sound like a broken record and might even be ostracized from the "gambling community" .. but the most profitable strategy in gambling is not to gamble at all.

(waits to be heckled)

It seems no one wants to. LOL! Let me be the first one, then. In gambling, the rule is simple. You don't gamble, you take no profit. Well, that's not even a heckle.  :D

Anyway, I have actually given my couple of cents here already but I think I have changed my mind. The easiest profitable strategy perhaps is to to do a little tweaking of the codes, at least in online gambling sites where it could possible be done.  ;D

He asked for the easiest profitable strategy, not the most profitable one.

Personally I think the easiest strategy guaranteed profitable strategy is matched betting, after all, it's practically impossible to lose your money when playing at reputable casinos.

But yes, most people do lose money while betting, though some do come out on top with impressive winnings. It's all about risk vs reward.

You are right gambling is about luck and strategic gambling at once. If you are lucky in gambling you will be able to gain profit from. Choose good game then get to well trusted casino and gamble to win profitably. Best strategy is to keep learning and getting information about the casino i select for gambling.

Actually the best profitable strategy is to play small amounts now and then, only what you afford to lose, and have fun.
Maybe one day you'll also win big. But as long as you have the fun, you already won.

If you get obsessed on gains, you have surely lost. That means addiction and it's awful.

For me, it is all about profit, about money and about hopes and risks.

We all know that greed is a nature of human and who would not want earning money out of depending it on luck, right? As far as I know, that is the path of least resistance, as they say. I agree that the best way to win in gambling is not to gamble at all if you can't help it, gamble what you can afford. There is no best strategy since if there is one, we should be all rich by now.

Play small amount and just for fun isn't gambling. You don't have any goal or money management, and if you can't make more money through gambling, it's mean you already lost to the site. What's the point to have fun with no money?

Spending money for only fun is not a big deal. But only for  those who can afford it aa I use gamble but I am not using it only for fun I am using gambling to make money and to fulfil my all dreams that’s why while betting I keep in my mind about future that I will have to learn it properly. Keep learning is one of the best way to avoid any lose.

But as long as you gamble, you are gambling. Name it, small or huge amount as long as you put it on bet that's still called as gambling. Whether you gamble for fun or not, you are still gambling. You have goals or none, you are still gambling.

There are gamblers who are having fun and didn't noticed that they are winning. There's a big chance that you will lose many times but it doens't mean that you can't win.

Friends and relatives of gambling addicts would definitely agree with you, but most gamblers, including me, would dispute this point of view.

There is a Japanese saying, "No one has ever stumbled whilst lying in bed". Of course you won't lose money to gambling if you don't gamble at all, but who knows how much money (and maybe health even) can you lose to another entertaining activity. We can't live only working 24/7, we need some kind of entertainment in our life.

One of my favorite betting strategies is making a hundred bets with 0.5-2 cents on 0.01% win chance on a dice site. Thus I either lose 0.5-2 bucks or win $50-$200. My overall profit from this strategy is negative, but it's fun, and I did hit 9900x multiplier several times so far.

You are contradicting yourself. Small amounts is money management. Is a way to keep yourself in the game now and then, when you afford it.
If you stay in the game, you can get someday the lucky bet.

It's not. Gamble with small amount is the way to prevent lose big amount, it's not money management. Money management is know to stop when you are in profit or lose some amount. If you keep gamble with small amount continously without stop, you will still lose. The difference only you lose your amount in long run if you gamble with small amount

well Affiliate / Referral  is for me the most profitable strategy to earn on gambling. Too bad I am using that earnings to gamble so in the end i am still even.  ::)

I disagree. Bigger amounts are far better to gamble with when compared to smaller amounts. Why? Everyone are aware of the fact that gamblers will always lose and the house will always win in the long term.

However, the short term outlook could be different based on your luck. This is why yolo gambling is very popular. Go all in on a bet(Wager a big amount) preferably on a sports bet with odds of 2.0 or higher and you could win big money instantly or lose it all.

If you win, take the profits and run for the door. Instant profit. If you lose, tough luck. Invest only what you are willing to lose.

For me, affiliate or referral is very difficult to do because there are a lot of things that I need to do before I can get people to join under me. I have experience in the past to use affiliate to promote some products, and I don't make much money from the affiliate system. But I think for other people if they can find one method to work, they can focus on expanding and promoting it to other people.

But that is not a betting strategy, affiliate has no risk at all as you are just promoting the gambling site and you'll earn a commission based on their rules in every gamblers that will sign up your link.

For me, the affiliate is one of many betting strategies to get money. Maybe some people think that there is no risk, but I think the risk is we spend our time to get a new member that will sign up under us, and that is not easy. If we cannot get the member, then we cannot earn a commission and what we did before will not give results.

I find this strategy very useful when playing with faucet money. Normally the amount you can claim is too small to play with. I mean , you can play with any amount, but if you lose quickly without gaining anything it's not that entertaining, right? So, what I do is I go all-in with 10% win chance, and I either lose or I win an amount sufficient for an entertaining game. But this strategy is good for playing with faucet money only. Don't try it with deposited money, especially if it's a big amount for you.

I don't think you understand statistics and odds very well, else you would not have said that. If the number of people betting goes up, then the odds of you winning will go down. That's statistics. So don't live in false hope.

Most bookies will alter the spread to ensure the house remains profitable no matter what, even if 99% of all bettors bet on one side of a match, the bookie cannot lose money.

hey hey! you cheeky bastard lol but yeah that's not exactly profiting. That's not losing. Although in gambling, as long as you are not losing you are actually profiting. But to actually make profits, I found that you would have to simply be oppurtunistic. Count your odds the best you can and gamble when you think there's an edge in your favor. There's just no magic trick here. Although the type of edge, advantage to look for would vary from game to game and the type of game you're playing.

Following tipsters can be an easy option, but it's hard to find someone who doesn't manipulate their history to appear better than they are.

It depends on how you promote the site/spreading the referral link. There are some people risking money for affiliate program by making website, offering free money for referrals, etc. Indeed it cant be considered as betting, but something like investment to gain referrals. Some other people do it for free by spreading the link on social media, forum, free blog, etc so it is obviously no risk at all.

Firstly, I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say in that post of mine. Secondly, indeed, I don't understand what are you trying to say here.

Say, I'm betting on a team A today, when the number of bettors is 1 million. Are you saying that tomorrow, if the number of bettors will be 10 million, the odds of me winning will go down? Do you think that the number of bettors affects the performance of the team A? Or else, how can my  odds go down?



And they never will. But they don't have to alter anything for that, they will earn because of the house edge. If 99% of all bettors bet on one side of a match, and they happened to be winners, then the money of that 1%(minus the house edge) will be distributed between the 99%, and vice versa.

So, can you please explain, what did you mean by saying "Most bookies will alter the spread ..." ?

Imho both are different sides of money management. The money is also money before you win/profit, you know...


That's obvious. The problem is that people start gambling increasingly big amounts in hope to cover small loses (eg Martingale) and that's silly. And with that you probably never get to win / have profit.


Nope. With 10$(*) you can make let's say 20-30 bets (some winning, some losing). You lost them, you move on, you try tomorrow or next month again. Maybe some day you get lucky and instead of 20-30 bets you end up making 40 bets and end up with 100$ (or 500$!). Great! Stop and move on. Maybe tomorrow or next month you'll play with 20$.
If you start with 100$ and when losing then get 1000$ to cover that loss, then you already lost, maybe all you have.


(*) The initial amount depends on the player's pocket, can be bigger or smaller; all the rest is more or less proportional; the numbers are inaccurate, I only try to show an idea.

In other words, it is not gambling in its strict sense. Referral links have nothing to do with betting on a match, dice, roulette, poker, and so on. But if you want to stretch gambling to its broadest possible meaning, then anything that involves risk and uncertainty and which you are spending money on may be considered gambling. But that is not the kind of gambling we are talking about here.

Recruitment or affiliation is helpful to get gambling profits. It very easy to those who have friends and families that are gambling addicted and rich who can bet in gambling. But for me, it is very difficult to have affiliation or referrals since recruiting players or traders are very hard for me to do. Because some of my friends do not play gambling.

Actually it is not too difficult to find affiliates, in my country there are a lot of people who become affiliate marketer, they have a unique way of finding people. The trick is to build a community, the meaning of the community is to build a discussion community that is useful for many people of course you must have more abilities in the community, so people will believe in the strategies you teach. So from there you can invite newbies to join, newbies usually do not know about this affiliation, they are just looking for the right strategy.

But it's difficult to get those referrals these days.

It's worth it if you have built up a nice network with them.

I know this strategy but this also depends on how you are as a marketer. Remember that referrals aren't lasting for long.

Some of my friends told me that if a gambler sets a goal to earn big money through gambling and works in this direction, then he will probably have no more than 50% good results.  At the same time, if a person does not think and worry about money, but enjoys it, it is these positive emotions that can help to get the highest percentage of gambling profit.  I still can not control my emotions and my desires, so I could not check which strategy.

The outcome will not relay on the emotion or what state you was inn when making the bet. Why would a positive mindset profit more? Both ways you can overplay your hand when counting on emotions.

I had chosen the "Finding Value Bets" I never try this but maybe it works that finding a good team and study them in sports betting will probably you will have a chance to win. However, this does not give a guarantee to all gamblers because every match is unpredictable but at least you are having knowledge on which team is weaker on you can avoid them to bet. Take note that this is only my conclusion.

There's one tactic that actually worked for me whenever I wanted to make some cool money from betting, basically my passion is on soccer and whenever I want to make some quick money I just pick some lower odds around the leagues either in spain or others continent.

Gambling affiliate can be good also but it doesn't come as 'easiest betting strategy* as OP has asked.
Moreover, for one to earn easily from online gambling affiliate, he/she might have had a pervious long history of audience, aside this it will be difficult for a new marketer. This adds up to marketing a good online gambling site that pays well, if they are genuine, bringing people to them would be less tasking.

The odds that odds makers give to a team can help us decide where we can put our money however, the returns are very low and another thing that you need to consider is the "upsets" like in MMA and in Boxing, a lucky punch can turn the event around but in basketball in games that consists of team, you can study the line up first before deciding plus the odds that was given by odds makers.

I couldn't find good strategy when it comes to gambling, all I aim is good and fun games along with lucky winnings. Although I need some profits but I don't expect too much to win actually, because in gambling you won't win against it and you're always prone to lose most of the time. Better just enjoy it and don't have fun when betting in order to avoid frustrations.

Are you always able to win in the soccer matches with lower odds ?  Remind me of  some times where i too have lost some big money  :(

There is always a risk when you bet with low odds matches/games because the winning percentage is small but if you lose than all the money is gone forever.

On average if you pick the more remote odds but do so in a way that identifies quality and more probable wins then perceived by the majority then eventually you should come out on top.    Its not easy and I think it takes alot of bets, alot of knowledge but if you can do so regularly then its far better value betting then people who just pick the most popular, biggest teams and get not good odds for it.

Generally, referrals aren't the easiest way on betting because not all of the people are capable of getting a referral. Betting was the easiest way especially when you know the genre of betting like sports. If you know the sport and have some information about the teams, you can easily win on betting. If someone asking what's the easiest way, we should consider all of the factors.

That is difficult to find or make a good strategy in gambling because all in all, we need to have and depends on the luck itself. Whatever you use the strategy, if you don't have luck, then that will be impossible to win the gambling. But that will be different if you bet on the sports betting, maybe you can win small money if you don't have good luck.

good to see this thread going strong
90% of the answers are complete nonsense but all welcome lol

Yes, in sports betting at least experience and strategy are the most important though luck is still highly expected so that everything goes well. So betting on sports at least becomes a easy betting category to bet, but it's not as easy as imagined because we still need to have a good focus to do it, because an easy strategy will be there when we have experience about gambling being played.

Knowing your types of sports to have  a good insight in order to pick the right match to place your bets, experienced and your capabilities to anticipate which teams have a good advantage from the opposing sides,  sport gamblers have the same mindsets thinking that they've got some edge but some are careless and too aggressive, emotions contributes  when planning good strategy but luck influenced more.
