Below is a list of my thoughts on sports books
Some may feel that these are obvious.
All of this is just advice/suggestions on how to manage your gambling journey.

The following should be self-explanatory.

General Strategy

1: Shop around for the best value.

2: Work out a staking plan. General rule of thumb is 5% of bankroll (I use 3-5% and sometimes 8%)

3: Never, ever, chase!

4: Pay close attention to team news.

5: Stick to singles or doubles.

6: Choose which markets you bet on carefully.

7: In any given season you will have good spells and bad spells and you should not get carried away with either.

8: Stick to what you know and don't bet on leagues you haven't been following.

9: Keep records of all your bets.

10: Know when to cut your losses. (i.e. Don't go into debt)  *Dealing with a gambling problem? Learn the warning signs and how to get help.

I'm open to feedback... like/share/comment

The MOST important thing about sports betting is having good bankroll management. U can pick all the winners u want if your not disciplined u wont make it in the long run.

#4 is a really good tip. it may seem extremely obvious but even myself when starting out, I got burned a few times just by not checking on the status of a team/player. Its pretty bad to go big on a game only to find out you didn't have all the information you needed. Good tips my man, a great set of guidelines for any potential sports bettor.

Bet on Big Distractions is a new one to me. Seems like a good strategy.

you mean there is no ways to make money out of betting on sports in a long term? if yes i have to disagree, if you have a lot of knowledge about sports that you bet on you can become rich out of betting for sure

U can def make $ in sports betting in the long term but pretty much all pro betters stick to a 1 or 2 sports. U see touts all the time selling picks to every major sport and there is no way they are +ev in every sport. Stick to what u know the most about just cause NFL reg season is over doesnt mean u should start firing away on NHL type of thing

Nice OP bitcoinprofit.

I agree with pretty much every hint/tip you've listed. Gambling noobs should adhere to something like this. We all like to have fun betting but without being careful it's easy to get yourself into financial difficulty.

Also something that is very important in sports betting is make sure u get the best of the #. If a NFL game is -3 then jumps to -5 its pretty -ev to take the -5. Look to live bet the game or just pass it all together. Theres a reason the # moved and if u dont have the best just pass

Thanks for the tips OP. I still haven't done any sports betting, but I'd like to give it a try. I think #9: "Keep records of all your bets, " is a really good idea, in any long term betting. That way you can always know if you are ahead of not, instead of some vague guess.

What rules do you live by when gambling??

Play on your own, if you're passionate about a game, you'll be able to pick the right bets yourself, paying people for tips is as stupid as it gets.

PS: Don't know where the google link in your sig leads to but I am not finding out.
