Multi bets vs single bets

[StephenJH]

The lower the risk, the higher the chance of winning. Your question is to combine the low multipliers in order to get higher odds but the chosen games will be more than 5 for 2 odd. What if one of the chosen matches with low odd becomes lost. Betting a high amount at low odds can hurt one day like me, I have lost $1932 in a tennis match which has the clear favorite player with 1.05 odd. On the last set, the player from France has decided not to play and odds started to drop for OP player, I have lost all bankroll which I build during 1 month in the single-game due to this low odd, sadly.

I am not a risk-taker, so I choose single bets. Multi bets can give a big win if you win, but it could give you a big loss if you lose. But I won't say that a single bet can't give you a big loss because if you place the high odds and lose, your loss will be bigger. But if you can predict many events and know which teams that have a chance to win, you can try with multi bets with various bets amount. Perhaps, you can experiment by yourself to find out which will work well for you, whether it's single bets or multi bets because I think we have our selection based on our knowledge.

Multi bets of course. My friend won 1 btc just with 0.001 btc as bet at 1000x multipler on 12-13 parlays game few years ago on direcbet.eu, (sadly because that site already closed now). That was very crazy and didn't thought he managed to win all those parlay games.

Betting huge amount in single bet would only pain since low odds won't guarantee you will win the match. It's better to bet 1000 times with 1 btc (Bet 0.001 btc)  rather than bet 1 time with 1 btc.

I prefer only a single bet compared to multi bet because for me it is riskier to have multi bet on which when you got lost all of those then you will lose a big amount of money compared to a single bet. If you want to play for the long run then you better keep on a single bet, that is what most of the bettors do. It would give you more chance of winning even though it will take for so long. 
The only advantage of the multi bet is that there is a good chance of winning but is winning won't always by your side and if that would be the case your money will lose quickly.

If you do the math, multi bets are the biggest contributor in profit of sports betting or any other gambling games that allow multiple bets. The chances of winning is the same as single bets, yes the profit is low in singles but it is better because you will not lose big time with single bet.

If you bet 10 and your bet lost, you lose 10 which is not much if you are an avid gambler, but if you bet 10 on 3 games and 1 of them lost, you win 20 but you bet 30 which means that the only way you can get a decent profit is by winning all the 3 bets. I like to think of multiple betting as a speedrun into losing your money.

There was a time when I was fascinated with multi-bets. It was my primary option when the odds were really low. I would usually place 4 to 5 bets in parlay to kind of make something worthy out of odds as low as 1.05 to 1.20. But then somehow I got disappointed because most of them would turn out a loss. And the worse thing was that the game which I was almost sure to be just a like a bonus in my multi-bet was the only one that would spoil everything. After several losses in multi-bets, I shifted back to single bets.

[Questat]

I do both, single bet on bigger amount, multi bet on smaller amount.

Some people say that parlay is making you lose overtime, it maybe correct but the fun and experience is really great when I'm doing a parlay bet.
Not only two legged parlay but even more, the higher the better as the payout will increase.

If you are serious with sports betting, you should focus on single bet instead.

I'm a simple man when it comes to betting. I don't like to analyze too much that's why I don't do parlays. However small the winnings in single bets are, they're equally good if done consistently. To try to maximize my winnings, I only pick games with good odds most of the time.

Simple man as well, but I don't analyze my parlay bet, I just bet it for fun and just hoping that I'll be lucky.

However small the winnings in single bets are, they're equally good if done consistently. To try to maximize my winnings, I only pick games with good odds most of the time. 

That's the principle I've been following, as a gambler, you don't risk big when you are not consistent yet but the moment will come you can prove you are consistent, that should be the start in putting a decent bet, for me it's like investing with knowledge, not gambling hoping for luck.

its the momentum . this does happen to me when i win two to three bets , thats my luck got triggered and will give me more wins but if i start verry bad ill just loose the next bets and so on . you only need to know when to stop because theres no way you can win forever .

 multi bet can save time and you can pull it off properly if you have a wider knowledge on sports  . i mostly bet single in my case and it works wonder to me somehow

[Salauddin1994]

I don't bet too much but single bets are better than multi bets you don't have to depend on others here you can bet by analyzing the betting sites yourself reducing the amount of damage, even if it is loss increases both knowledge skills. It is better to play with small amount of capital and gradually increase the amount but in multi bets the amount of capital is more that's why I like to bet alone.

[Reatim]

Practically wise for me is single Betting and this is also safer,and why do i need to make multi betting when i only play occasionally and not a Habit.

I only play with friends and never come in casino on my own,i would rather watch movies than doing such,and also in online betting
we usually do this together and that is our way of keeping us safe.

We as group knows the risk of becoming addicted so just to make fun in gambling we decide doing it together and yes we are successful in this part.

So Single betting is what i voted in Poll and its winning lol.

[jademaxsuy]

I am more fan in a betting of a single because it will just create confusions on where to side. Like for example you have bet to that team and then you have bet also previously on the other side which will then confuses you what team will then you will going to bet. I have experience that kind of betting and regret on losing my bet where I had to chose which team I do like the most for my bet since both of the team had let me won in their match. This is why now I am more focused on betting a single team rather tha multiple bets.

[maxreish]

I am fond of creating multi bets before in sports. (Parlay bets)
But, there are just few multi bets that I luckily won. Most of them were loss like kinda frustrating because only one game failed to win. What I like the most, too is that we can bet smaller amount but we can win big on that multi bets. However, the chance of winning is also based on the luck too because games are unpredictable.

Right now, I've been mixing single bets and multi bets. And recently, most of my single bets won always rather my multi bets.

Placing multi bets will be okay if you have more data about each match because you can increase your chance to win in some match. But I don't know how it feels because I don't try with the multi bets. We need to familiarize ourselves before using multi-bets to select more than one match because we can feel it difficult to manage or handle the bets. If we can win from the multi bets like you, that is because we have luck in all match, but we might difficult to try it again because sometimes the luck is already gone after we won.

I suggest not using a big amount when you use multi bets, especially if you don't have much info about the match, and make sure that you have valid data before placing any bets.

[ralle14]

For me single bets is always the better option and i've had more success with singles than parlays.

I still make multi bets when the match starts within the same hour as the other ones. Multi bets are great when you hit one but it'll take you several betslips (sometimes hundreds) before you hit one and it's annoying to see your multis that are just one win short from paying out.

[XZERO1]

In my little experiment from the past, I was betting on Sportsbet.io on very likely outcomes with very low odds (1 point something). I won three single bets in a row:

But after a discussion on this forum I accepted the idea that these low odds give very low profit and are not worth the effort. So then I thought: why not make a multi bet consisting of these very likely winners and boost the profit this way? I decided to give a multi bet which combines three of such very likely outcomes a shot. And... I lost it because two out of three one and in one case another team won.

So my question is whether you prefer multi bets to single bets and whether you find multi bets significantly more risky than single bets.

I understand why you and probably many other people might find it appealing to place multiple bets, because sometimes it negates the loss you get from your other bets and it also can give you a better edge, but the thing is even if you only bet on teams that have better odds of winning you can still lose the bet and I'd say apart from securing your betting position a bit more it's not going to affect your amount of profit by a large degree and as good as it may look on theory it's not going to be that effective on practice.

[Johnyz]

Single betting is fine for me and I don't want to take more risk on this one and beside if the game is already on-going my focus is to watch the game and not to think about my bets, and mostly I forgot to place my bet because of my busy schedule. Anyway, if the chance to get profit is high I'm sure that's a lower risk of bet and don't be sad if you earn small profit because it is still a profit, if you have extra money to bet then you can do Multi bets, you have to analyze first your capital. The probability to lose money is high, this is gambling even if you think that you bet on the winning team the odds can still be change.

[CLS63]

I liked making single bets before but multi bets are more attractive than them from now on. But when I lose the bet with just 1 match, I get sad about it. For example, I got sad for this bet that I lost recently.

[Pamadar]

I mostly prefer single bet but due to some greed  inside me,

exploring multi bet to have a much better odds I sometimes tried but success rates is more lower than doing single betting.
It's annoying when you regret adding the game that supposedly boost your earnings but in the end shit happened and it was the bet that you are really thinking as sure bet that will ruined your suppose profits.
