Betting small amounts on a lot of matches or big amount on couple of matches?

[lifeOK]

I've some limitation on betting, what I want to say every individual has different way how they put money on it. This is because minimize the lose, by betting small amounts on a lot of matches give me more success. However, our profit depends upon the time we spend on it. The facts demonstrate that betting isn't exactly as beneficial as it once might have been, however there's still chance to be made decent money. In betting my purpose is using the most ideal approach to get great return.

As a rule, such decisions end in losing the whole deposit! In any case, I have had it several times, in soccer matches, in which I was fully confident!

It's the same in trading!
I would not advise anyone to place an all-in bet! Especially when you set yourself the goal to earn money! This is the right way to failure!

The same thing can happen if you spread your capital between ten bets. At best, you will always stay at zero. At the same time, you certainly do not take into account the cost of your time.
Personally, I choose to bet on 1-2 matches rather than ten.
Trading is very different from betting on matches. In trading, you can make a reverse trade at any time and get minimal losses. In betting on matches when your team's opponents score three goals, you don't say to the bookmaker: return my money or at least part of it.

Place all-in bet must be avoided to every gambler because that is one way to lose all of our money in a short time. If you care about your money, you will not do that, and you will try to place a bet in a small amount so that you can play for some rounds. Maybe we don't have to deposit in a large amount of playing gambling because that is the first thing we must do before we play gambling.

Having confidence is good, but if we won some money, that feeling would become overconfident, which will not be good for us to continue gambling. Maybe if we have that feeling, we can stop gambling. But I guess that we will not feel that, and we might continue to play for more rounds.

Of course if you are going to play more once you won some money and that is the mystery behind betting,in sport betting people rarely at all in unless thay are crazy fan of the player/team which they were about to bet but apart from that people will be strategically but lowering too much also won't help either.

I think the answer is obvious. Thorough the years as a gambler, I have realized that it is more profitable to place higher amount of money on just a few matches than to place small amounts on lot of matches.
It is simply because there is a higher chance of loss with staking a a lot of matches. This has even been proven mathematically if you study 'Probability' well enough.
You can greatly the reduce the risk of losing and increase your chances of winning by just selecting a few matches ( ones you're confident on) and stake a high amount of money of it

Some people do think about that diversification or allocation on several bets with small amount of money being put up unlike if they do just bet on few ones with big money involved then they do really had that mindset that it is more riskier.I don't know but this is just also my impression and im sure that some will really agree upon.

Talking into the real side of things and about probability then theres no doubt that having a few but bigger bets will really be much more worth if I were to say but somehow
this will require in depth analysis and good decision making on choosing which one you would choose to bet.

Some people said its a matter of preference which is actually true but basing off into the realistic and worthy side then we do already know the answer.

However, the concern is betting on a small amount on several matches, not betting a small amount for a single match.

Obviously, it's not recommended to go all-in in a single bet but I don't see any difference in terms of risks if the amount involved will be split instead to take advantage of the low odds on several matches thinking it's way more profitable.

Low odds need a good amount in order to feel the profit. And people have to take note that not all the time, low odds is a sure win. I'd rather take chances on decent odds on a single bet or try making a parlay for a minimum of @1.5 odds each slip.

, I bet $4/$5 worth of BTC on a lot of matches;

I'm using the same tactic  picking leaders' matches against outsiders. Sure I bet on leader and almost always hit the spot. Never bet on Brazil teams, they are so unpredictable. My favorites to choose are from  Premier League and Italian Serie A and with them I’m almost never wrong.

[jademaxsuy]

Base on my understanding is that betting on smaller amount of bets to different matches vs. betting huge in just few matches or shall we say betting all in one match like wishing to get a jackpot win.

I tend to chose the kind of betting to which I could done earlier. Most likely betting on a single match all in. But before I could chose to bet I make sure to analyze first my choice and why is it that I am going to bet for that choice. I also making a mindset that whatever result the bet was it will be alright because this is all about gambling and no way to dictate the result of the bet unless you own a mafia to which you can ask the team to let lose for that certain match. LOL

I can bet smaller bets on different matches but I am not going to excite always if I am going to win to which it will be expected that winning amount is also low in amount.

Betting these days have been quite tricky, especially when it comes to football you never can be too sure as what might seem to be the result of the outcome untill the final whistle is blown.
One thing we must put into consideration in choosing what pattern our...

Even in any kind of game betting is quite tricky and risky at the same time because you dont know if the team that youre betting in would win or loose. The risks of being loose was still there. But of course you can have a little ray of sunshine to win when you were going to check its player and the team background, how they play, how many game the winned. Also from the player itself of course a different game has a famous name that was really good in playing its game. From there you can partially predict a end game result.

Ofcourse. It's probably like doing fundamental and technical analysis in Crypto trading and betting on two coins based on the analysis. I assume football betting sites already have tools for bettors to analyze teams/matches fundamentals, team records, players past/present fitness, players skills, etc.   The information will certainly help people bet right.

Bigger bets is the key for quick profits, especially when there's a x5 odd then your money can multiply quicker. Although as tempting as it can be you need to be consider the risk of losing big time. Probably, decide how much you can stake per day, and then bet in multiple games to diversify your winnings in case a game fails and you lose. So it wont hurt your stash, and still gain despite losing.

There is a reason why gamblers and investors use many of the same terms and that is because even if the activities are different both have to do with money, making big bets may seem like the optimal way to bet as this gives the greater amount of profits, but you are only thinking on the scenario in which things go according to your plan, but what happens if you fail? Well you will lose big and you do not want that don’t you?

So the best thing we can do is to make small bets, that way if something goes wrong you do not lose as much money and you can recover it during the next weeks by making many other small bets.

I wouldn't say going all in on a specific match is similar to a jackpot win unless you're doing a same game parlay that boosts your odds above 2 or taking bets that are unlikely to hit. It's not that hard to win one bet if you don't rush your bets sometimes going all in could mean you're desperate to recover your losses and that forces to make quick bets which usually doesn't end well when you could've spend more time looking for better matches.

Besides that, the bettors need to collect more information about each team, so he knows what he should pick. Perhaps, that is like the crypto trading we need to analyze, but the differences will be in gambling, we can lose our money, but in trading, we can wait for the next time to see the price will increase.

The key to sports betting is how you can have as much information as possible to select the team with a big percentage to win. If you can't collect the information, the chance for you to win will not be too bigger, and even you will lose and not make any money.

That is one part of the solution for betting in sports. The problem is how do you plan a strategy that continually profits, for me the better way to profit would be betting small amount in all the games, the risk is too high for betting large for a few games. The downside of the former is that you will have to analyze every team and I think if you are not a full time betting enthusiast, that will be taxing. The latter narrows the accumulation of information which is enticing. In the end, the choice is yours and we all just voice our opinions about the upsides and downsides of the choices given.

The very BS thing in gambling is chasing losses because as i believe in my own experience never that i return back the losses instead i lose more after that action.
what i mean here is that if you done losing money then better go home and take a rest because that only means you're not with luck that day.
there is always another chance and that is why resting for a while and returning in the other day is best strategy than seeking wins that same day.
Bet big one hit and then go home either win or lose if you are longing for winning,but if for enjoying then lets play with small bets till we got satisfy.

Planning a strategy with betting in a small amount will be better than using a big amount, especially if we don't have much data about the match. Using a small amount in all the games will save us one day because we can hold ourselves from the situations that may be happening in the match, which is out of what we analyze. But if you feel that the data you collect is more than enough and you feel that you have a chance to win, you can try to place a medium amount until a big amount. But you don't have to use it every time you bet because we can't always win in gambling.

If you don't have idea about the things you will do I think it's not good to have this kind of bet into a large amount sometimes small profit is enough to earning, unless you really want to earn a large profit why not it's nothing wrong with this.

Most of the if I'm got confident to my wages I always into a higher role to have higher chance of earning also always consider too the amount or calculation you could win like the odds if you think good why not if just fair small amount is enough.

When we feel that small profit is enough, we will not chase the bigger profit because we will realize that getting a win on small money is difficult, then we will not try to pursue greater profits. We know how to control ourselves regard of the situations and conditions every time we gamble.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to earn a large profit, but we should know how big our chance to win in the next round. We can't force ourselves to still playing gambling if we don't have a good feeling to play gambling. It is better to play safe than to risk our money in a large amount of money because we will hard win much money in gambling.

I mean whats the point of having many bets if you know the odds is not the same per matches and if they will win its only depend on the team.

Splitting your bets in smaller amounts means you can take more losses and upsets happen more frequently as some of the teams are affected by the new normal. I agree that the odds aren't the same but even if you're very confident on a team they could still lose. With a bigger bet it's one and done situation that's up to you if you prefer that strategy but like i've said, with a smaller bet strategy you can simply climb back even if you've lost 5-10 times in a row and it sucks to lose your deposit in a short amount of time.

Dividing the deposit into many small bets increases the distance of the game, which means that it reduces the chance to stay in the black. However, if a person plays for the sake of the process itself, then this is a reasonable decision in order to prolong the pleasure.

[pilosopotasyo]

I have been gambling a lot these days with soccer matches but I'm not enough lucky to make a profit. Howeber, I'm not into huge loss. It's very tiny amount if I check all the previous P/L.
I don't bet big amount. Usually, I bet $4/$5 worth of BTC on a lot of matches; sometimes I win and sometimes I loss. But that can't make me any profit.
Should I go for bigger amount of bets on few matches or stay with current strategy (placing many bets of small amounts)?

If you are going for profit I recommend that you go for bigger amount of bets on a few matches pick the matches that you think you know who is playing, if you want to bet for entertainment and just for curiosity sake then betting a small amount in many matches is good this is to tryif it's your lucky or you are good in sport betting.

There are gamblers who uses this type of betting, they are okay with small profits once luck permits them, in case loses take place they still chance with other bets to win and continue the process, giving them the chance to assess and try to play another game and either breakeven or try to win something that will give them additional pleasures.

Who knows with all those small matches the timing was good and those teams are performing well, the chance of gaining is really good and decent as well. It's still luck and skills that plays the big role.
