What's the *easiest* profitable betting strategy?

[MFahad]

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.

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.

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 !

"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.

The only strategy of winning gambling or dice games is Good Luck only.

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!

...all of them are the same . you can loose or win depending on how lucky you are   

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.

[arco-yabamba]

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..

[swogerino]

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.

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.

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.
