In basketball which is my favorite sport to bet, I am mostly into the spreads. I am not into total odds because it is another work of research and analyzing teams' scores in their previous games. I just prefer the usual way which is analyzing who wins, and the ability of the teams and players.
It's more of the spread I agree but I think this will still depend on how much money we are talking about here, because there are gamblers who can make good profit on their total bet as well. Basketball is also my local team sports, and some times I also bet in boxing which I can say are more fun to watch while having your bet. Just bet on which you think you are profitable, as long as you do analyze then it can be good, you just need to hope for the luck.
Why talk about money? I think we need to deal first on how to win, because if we are comfortable with our betting style and we find it profitable, it's easy to grow our money. We gamblers do set our bankroll, that's when we are already serious with gambling, like we are ready to consider it beyond entertainment, we get more ambitious because we trust with our system that would work.
So it takes money to make money, but you never risk big money if you aren't confident enough to achieve long term wins.
