You always need luck, after all it's gambling. But I agree with you, if you have a good analysis, you will  need less luck in sportsbetting.
But even there, if you are doing everything well but you are going for parlays, then you will need a lot of luck, since you have to win very bet.
Never did to well in parlays, even if I would won most of the bets in it, there is always that one messing my wins xD
I did got decent luck in casino gambling, when I pay for a while on betcoin.tm where I made 3.8 BTC mainly on roulette, and starting with 0.5 BTC.

I tired the reverse martingale, and to be honest I prefer it to the normal one. It serves the purpose of trying to take advantage of your lucky runs, and tat's the main point in gambling I think, since you will lose in the long run, so you better try to win big in short term.

You can find a lot of betting plans strategies on wizardofodds.com

I will start betting on Brazilian soccer. I was searching for threads focused on this, and found this on.
Is there any thread that I don't know with more action, and dedicated to Brazilian soccer?

Anyway, here is my bet:

Palmeiras v Gremio
Draw No Bet, Palmeiras @1.52

Given Palmeiras form at home, and the recent games between these two, I think it's a decent bet.

Followed your bet live @ 2.14, but it didn't work out :/
Did not saw the game, just looked at the odds and trusted your judgement. Looking at the odds, they had a chance in the game, a little before I placed my bet. When I bet it was @1.7, but when it went it, it as @2.14 and then it never came down.
Oh well, better luck next time.

So any more tips for today? I could not get that one, because the market was not available. Made a few bets on tennis today, but just manage to break even :/

Bacsinszky and that set from Putintseva cost all the profit made on Serena win. Both bets seemed like good money, but I manage to at least break even. Better luck next time. I expect a good game between Bertens and Serena.

Crap the 2-0 on Serena went bust. I made a bigger bet on Serena now, hope that one wins.
I also went for Bacsinzky, so far is going well.

I had a really good experience on neobux. I was around when the site open, start with risk free, saw things going well and decided to invest and buy my gold membership and some referrals. It was a great bet, because I only invested $50 on the site, and I was winning around $150 to $200 a month after a while. Anyway a lot of things changed and my profit went down and I could not maintain my account without investing again.
I choose not to invest again and let my account "die". The site is still working, but I never tried it again, so I can't say if you can still make profit from it.

what do you guys think about Ser Williams v Putintseva.
Putintseva was one break ahead on first set, so I risked Serena 2-0 @1.6. She manage to equal things now, maybe I got a good bet here.

Maybe it wasn't available when I tried. Anyway, the game didn't went live so I did not bet.
I will wait for his other tips for the day.

I usually bet on direcbet and they don't have that option for that game.
Do you think a over 2.5 is risking to much?

EDIT: Glad to see you back!

Really great competition, got a good profit since my main bets were above those 5%, and even got the daily prizes and now the participation prize. Directbet is really great house to bet with!

Thanks for this great competition, looking forward for the next one!

I really don't agree with point 2.
I won 2 daily challenges, and it was really easy to make the 1000 Loyalty, and I came out with almost full profit from both challenges.
I will now see how the 70mBTC will go when I get them, but it will probably be the same.
This really is a almost risk free competition.
I will definitely continue to participate even if I can't make it to top7.

Damn this went bust. I manage to make some profit on the correct score 1-1 @6.2, but then I wasted my profit by betting on Atletico again for the penalties. Oblak is a great keeper but he sucks at penalties. If I knew that, it would be easy money on Real, the odds were around @1.9
Also quite said on the result, Atletico had so many chances of solving thi without the penalties, oh well...

Great I won again! Thanks, can't wait to start playing with my prize again xD
This Daily challenge mini competition is really great, even if we can't make it to Top7, we still have a great chance to profit with these.
Just two of them is like 7th prize, really nice. Hope I can still grab a few more!

It's legal, and if you do it well the bookmakers will actually like you. Since you are losing on the house that gives you the bonus.
The problem is when you win there and normally withdraw after completing the rollover. That way there might be a chance that they lose money with you.

I used to do it with fiat, but I never find bonuses with bitcoin to do it as well.
Are you doing it with bitcoin sportsbookers? (like direcetbet etc)

Man that is just crazy. Congrats on your winnings, but I hope you don't repeat that gambling pattern or you will go bankrupt.
That is the true story lol. I suggest you just cash it all out, or deposit half of your profit and try to do it again, and keep withdrawing part of your profit.
That way it will always be a happy story.

Your introduction seems interesting. I will follow your thread closely to see how it goes.
I don't understand the advantage thing. I mean isn't sports betting just about good analysis of games and good predictions, why did you need the help from your brother? It's not like you are trying to exploit anything are you?

I'm not sure about that bet. Ronaldo doesn't do that well on his national team, so I'm not sure he will be top goal scorer.
Playing on Real and on Portugal is completely different for him.

What type of gambling do you like?
I would say to gamble if you like and are decent in sports betting or poker. If you don't like that and want to try gambling in those pure luck casino games and dice, then I would say you need a good bankroll management, otherwise you will go bust very soon.
As to invest, I really don't like that option. You can't win big if you want to invest safe, and if you go on and invest on risky things then you might as well gamble it, since you will not feed anyone with there scams.
