Does knowing your sport and teams really make you better at betting on them?

[btc78]

Nope that's not enough just to Know your team that will Make you win or an expert because your team will not play alone instead with Opponent .

So what will make us win? we must Know our team and also " The Opponents" this means we must be an expert in the whole process from our team and every team that they will be facing each time.

It's true that the more details we have knowledge regarding the players and teams that will play, then it makes our chances of winning the bet
are also higher. So it is not true if someone says sports betting is just a gambling game that relies on luck. Due to the fact that sports betting
requires knowledge of the players and teams that will play. And we also have to compare our favorite team with the opposing team, so we can
predict the results of the match. That's what makes sports betting quite complex and unsuitable for people who don't like sports.

If you only know about the game and teams' basic knowledge, I am afraid that will not help you pick the right team because you need more information about that, and that is not easy to pick the team. The basic knowledge can help us know how the gameplay, but we need to search for more details to know which team will have a big chance to win. Sometimes, we need to dig deeper to analyze each team that will match, so that can affect our decision.

What's your experience and opinion on the relation between knowing the sport and betting on it?

All I can remember are those people bandwagoning every time.

These bandwagons may be riding the hype but they don't know anything about the game or the team. They just knew a very popular player in that team and that is all. Having that knowledge really matters in sports betting especially those that really bet on each sport so hard. Knowing your team and their opponent, how they play, and how they might win or lose depends on how you know the sport and the players themselves.

[crzy]

It can be a big help to your betting decision, but of course you should not depend on that fully because its sports and there will be a winner and a loser so you must also open for that. The team that you trust can't always win, but doing such research is a must before you place a bet especially if you team is dealing with a strong or weak opponent, its also important to understand the sports and know the other team as well.

[peter0425]

It is an advantage but not necessarily mean you will make it to the sure win, because the game decides by two thing ,

- How your team perform .

- How the Opponent Perform.

So these must be consider both , the 2 of them.

knowing your team and opponent will still be not enough because you arent controlling thier play and you dont know whats going behind the stadium if what what are these players Planning about the game . lets accept that we cant escape being a loser sometimes but having adequate information is an advantage than nothing .

[adzino]

Yeah, it does. You know your team and how the game is played which boots your confidence when placing a bet. You know the weakness of the team which gives you an edge on who to place bets when a play goes on. It's more like you know what you are doing, instead of randomly placing bets of different teams blindly based on past results. You, over here don't completely depend on your luck. This gives you a higher chance of winning!

In the end betting will always remain mostly luck based because it's not in your hand if you win or lose but in the hand of the teams that compete.
-snip-

I doubt sports betting depends "completely" on your luck. It depends more on how the team is playing.

[Ucy]

Ofcourse, it should. But I think what would really matter the most is knowing the teams properly and factors that may affect their chances in order to be able to make better predictions. 
I believe if you could gather and properly analyze enough data/info on future matches and the teams involved, you will be able to increase your chances of predicting the matches right. I believe this will likely give a more consistent result than just guessing.

It's more about the winning chances, though some teams are underdog but it does not mean that they will lose all the time. Gambling by its word means risking for our choice or prediction to win, and we might lose as well. Successful gamblers does not win everyday or all the time, they win because they are smart to treat gambling as a business with a very simple formula they follow, some us, win more than you lose equals profit.

If you're betting on tennis without the slightest idea of how the game works, you probably won't do a good job because you wouldn't even understand what you're betting on. However, if you have some basic knowledge of the game and teams, is it enough to become good at betting? If you really know the teams and follow what's happening to them (injuries and stuff like that), does it really make you good at betting?

Even if you are big fan of the sport you cannot predict the matches correctly especially in Tennis, right now the Australian open is in full swing and we already saw many upsets including Petra Kvitota and then Stan Wawrinka loosing a match after having a lead and Bianca Andreescu lost the match but she was coming back after an injury so it was not an upset like Kvitota.

Knowing the injury of a player is more important if you are placing a bet.

I fully agree with you, to have an edge in betting we need to look at all the possible information. Knowing our home team is good, but without knowing the other teams of the league it will be hard to bet continuously on the right outcome. There are a lot different sport websites out there that are going to help us with that. Having a news feed for major news in our favourite sport is a good idea.

[Question123]

Im not betting about tennis, but I will recommend to bet to the team that you think is going to win. Like in basketball once you choose to a team make sure you watching their games or strategy or the chances of winning and also the sports is also your favorite sports. Knowledge is very important in every games or betting you do because it will turn for you to earn money but if you do not have enough knowledge that chances to losing money is very risky because you will not know what is happening unless you are know about the sports you bet.

lol Who says that there is an assurance ?  but at least we are advantageous in that way if we are familiar in how our team plays same as their opponent .

Exactly what i am putting here , because familiarity in both ends will help us give an estimate outcome , though it wasn't perfect but at least more percentage of winning than Losing .

[tyz]

Not really, because knowing the sports and the teams are the basics of the game, it's necessary in order to understand what you are doing, winning is a different thing, it's more complicated than what we think because of the betting odds set by the bookmakers.

The bettings odds are initially set by the bookmarkers. Then the odds change based on the number of bettors who bet on the respective outcome of the game and, above all, which amount they bet. For example: If the bettor puts team A on 1.5, team B on 3.5 and a draw on 2.0, and now the first bettor comes and bets 1 million on team B's victory, then the odds change significantly. Team B should then have lower odds than team A. This is an extreme example, but this is how it works.

I agree with you on you need some slightest idea of how these games work but some of them are based on probabilities and statistics. I have earned money betting on some horse races based on these statistics and I have no clue what a horse race is. Sometimes you can trust on some people who do this job for you with a commision based but I prefer do my own research instead of delegate my money on other hands.

[traderethereum]

What's your experience and opinion on the relation between knowing the sport and betting on it?

I will say that there is a strong relationship between knowing the sports and betting on it because if we really know about the sports and collect so much information about the team, especially our favourite team, that will give us a chance to select the right team.
We can also have a chance to win the game because we know which team can win against the other team.
It will help us analyze and decide, even if we only use small money because our rate to win will be bigger if we know much about the team.
If you want to do sports betting, you should choose the sports you already know, so you will not have difficulty selecting the team.

[Fundamentals Of]

Of course. Knowing your sport and teams make you aware of what you are betting into. Compare that to a blind bet, that would give you a higher probability of winning. With a blind bet, you have nothing to base your bet on. Betting without knowing is useless. It is not fun. It is not profitable also. You are simply playing with your money. Knowledge on teams and the game itself gives you a basis from which you will make your prediction analysis and bet.

There's no difference if you will bet on Tennis or basketball or any type of sports because everyone has their favorite sports and it's good if they will only bet on sports that they follow the most and they are interested the most as that will give them more excitement in betting. In my case, I follow basketball so I'm more focus on NBA games than other type of sports.

[Fredomago]

If you only know about the game and teams' basic knowledge,

Sorry but what is Basic knowledge ? is there specification of the teams knowledge?

I am afraid that will not help you pick the right team because you need more information about that,

Have you read the title? it is about the Team and Sports that you will bet in , what's this choosing ?that is meaning you already knew your team from the start.

and that is not easy to pick the team. The basic knowledge can help us know how the gameplay, but we need to search for more details to know which team will have a big chance to win. Sometimes, we need to dig deeper to analyze each team that will match, so that can affect our decision.

The bottom line is we must know "the Game, The Team, and the Opponent..

This will save your bets at any cost, and if you are not sure then better to pause betting and move on the next one.
