Accumulating small odds or choosing one or two big odds

[Bitinity]

After all your experiences about gambling on football matches, which one has been coming with the best result? Is it accumulating small odds? Or betting on one or two big odds?

I'm not really jump into sports betting especially if the popular football leagues (EPL, Serie-A) is in its break time. When it comes to strategy, I do combine both placing parlay (accumulation of some small odds) and single bet on bigger odd. Frankly speaking, I do prefer parlay bet because the thrill to win huge odds although I place small bet only. This is the one that makes me love to place parlay bet, risk low amount to get big win.

Reverse situations are extremely rare. For example, now everyone is waiting for the fight between Pacquiao and Spence, and despite the fact that Spence is a clear favorite, the odds on him are too high because Pacquiao's fans are betting on Pacquiao no matter what, and the bookmakers are forced to take this into account. At the moment, the odds for Spence is around 1.45 and in my opinion it is very profitable.

now it's very difficult, they need to find various bookies who will indeed bet big enough here, the casino must place a bet between Pacquiao vs Spence. There will be many possibilities between the two, between comparing history and recent journeys in boxing and some other comparisons that Spence himself certainly has. I'm still looking for information on what bets will be dropped by the bookies that dominate the selection above 75%.

To be honest, I did not understand what you mean  Right now there is such a match (Pacquiao - Spence) with a large imbalance in odds due to Pacquiao fans and the bookmakers are ready to accept your bet of any size on this event. Due to the fact that this is a top fight, bookmakers will receive tens of millions of dollars in bets on this match.

Pacquiao and Spence's ages are quite different, so it's quite clear when the odds are much different because younger ages seem to have a greater chance of winning. But if it is related to the title of the thread, then you choose to collect small odds to win because some of the gamblers will fight the majority to win big. Because if we dare to fight the majority then of course we will get bigger odds but yes, both have risks and I think about big or small odds it depends on how high the courage we have whether to have patience or try to make it faster with big odds.

Gambling is fun and we should take it for fun, people should not be addicted, they should play good and making it not necessary. I gambled over the weekend when I have time, it makes good sense to me, my budget is not more than 5% of my monthly income. This thread is focused on we that have fun while play bet, even if we lose, we are not sad, we are not affected negatively or depressed, but if we win, another money for beer has been received.

I will like people to comment on how they stake, strictly on football matches. Did you prefer to choose straight win? Did you like to choose correct score? Have you chosen correct score before and won it? Did you like playing 10 minutes over 1.5? The best accumulation you ever staked?

According to the mathematical theory of probability, if a newbie comes to the casino and makes one single bet, then his chances of winning are quite high.  

If he plays long enough, then inevitably he loses.  This is due to both the presence of a zero sector and a limited player's money supply.

The situation is different with sports betting.  

If the player has inside information or has excellent analytical skills, then he may have another effective strategy.  

And in such a situation, the use of many small bets is more preferable.  This will allow him to get a big win.

Neither of the two, I didn't check on the odds whenever I'm placing a bet. I always analyze the game, the team and other external factors that may affect the game actually the last thing a look is the odds. This is just my method but so far it works really well for me.

If it works it's good! I like your way, you don't chase odds, you chase winning bets! Analyzing the game, watching for all the relevant factors (the team condition, injured players, history...), and then choosing bets at any odds is better than just trying to search for higher or lower odds to bet on!
In the end, everything depends on us, how serious and professional we are when we bet, or we just have fun with occasional bets on different sports!

Unfortunately the fight was canceled but my strategy was not to fight against the majority or the minority - usually the bets from these groups are perfectly balanced by the odds from the bookmakers. I wanted to bet on an event which odds from the bookmakers was unbalanced (Spence's victory), but this does not mean that I am a supporter of small bets, since if I found an event unbalanced in terms of chances and with big odds, then I would bet on such event.

Allocating a monthly budget is a good strategy to manage your money. I do the same to limit the losses.
I personally don't have any particular strategy while placing my bets. I just go with my gut feeling and the most probable bet that I think could win.
I don't really care if the odds are small or big but most of the times the odds are small.

I think I can't do that if I have a small budget in gambling, as a gambler, we want to win and not only to win but to satisfy from that win. So if I bet a small amount with small odds, I need to win many times to accumulate a big amount, I guess it's better to put a parlay than doing that.

Makes sense.

In the end it all depends on the gambler's priority. For me, I want to make some predictions and I want to win the bet.
Yes the rewards after winning the bet should be the worth placing the bet too but I just play for fun most of the times.
So I just put in very small bets which is why I care less even if I lose the bets

Everyone does have different priorities and goals when gambling, so in the end it is up to us. I like you playing gambling just for fun to fill spare time,
so winning bets is not my main priority. Even if I win, I consider it just a bonus, so I always place small bets, so that when I lose I don't get
so disappointed. For me, playing gambling can give me entertainment, so it doesn't matter if I win or lose,  the most important thing is that I can
get entertainment when gambling.

That's why gambling is addicting, it's fun but at the same time, gambling is addicting because of someone's choice to be addicted on it.

The best way to win I guess but so risky enough is to bet it all out in just one game, but of course betting all in one shot means that you're prepared for that game, like you researched everything you have to know to 80% predict the team that's going to win. If not, you have to go for the slowly bur surely process until you are familiarize with everything.

I personally think that if you are going for a huge, long shot parlay, you are much better off just having one or two legs worth of big odds.

Each leg that you add essentially introduces another variable of uncertainty, and you'd have to have something ridiculous like 10, 20 legs of 1.2x bets in order to achieve the long odds that you want. That sort of thing simply becomes impossible in practice.

In contrast, 1 or 2 big odds bets can occur in unison in a black swan event, and their odds are generally more attractive.

I'm not really sure that this makes a difference, what I mean is that on the surface it makes sense for 2 unlikely events to happen simultaneously over 10 events that have a higher chance of happening, but if at the end of the day the odds of those two options are the same this means that both events have the same chance of happening and it doesn't make a difference which one you pick when it comes to the odds of winning that particular event.

What I mean is just looking for betting information where the bookies will bet. A kind of gambling site that dominates the big cities gather. So I can see where their choices are leaning and dominate whether they are betting more on Pacquiao or are they more likely to choose Spence.

Accumulator bets are more common with sports betting and I've used it a couple of times when I was a bit serious with sports betting. On it helping or not, I really can't say because, I lost far more than I ever won. It had a thing about it though, it gives you a chance to make the odds yourself about the games you have some level of assurance but, predictions would always be predictions and as such, you could always be wrong. So yeah, I was wrong a lot of times but still, I proffered it to a high odd betting.
Hi odd games also attracts a high stake in both stake and risk. It didn't seem idea to me in placing bets on high stake games. It all goes down to a place of comfort kind of thing though.

It's okay if you lose since you use spare money, amount that you allocate for some entertainment.

There are gamblers who loves taking higher chance of winning, risking their bet with small odd and enjoy it when they
manage to predict the right pick to win, while for some they are conscious with the risk that they are taking,

 better to take high odd and see if luck will permit them and have a much enjoyable exit.

Gambling can be addicting but even betting on either small accumulated odds or one big match poses risk, someone can be addicted to any of the two, but if you mean small odds can make someone addicted than big odds, you are right. But how about finding small odds in three matches that you think you will win and bet on it, giving you like 2 odds or almost two odds, this is the way I bet, and I always make sure there matches can give me 2 odds which is times two of my betting capital. Also I do go for over 2.5 goals very well and also over 1.5 goals in a way that accumulating 3 matches or less can give me 2 odds to stake.

[VanityWallets2015]

It depends on the match that I reviewed if I'm confident I choose two big odds but most of the time it will lose, and accumulating with small odds sometimes failed since the number of matches are more than 3 to accumulate good odds.

[Tessnik]

I will prefer to get one sure odd than accumulating several odds that will make me lose my bet. What I do most of the time is to pick one sure and stake big money on it that way the out will become big. So is a big win with minimal risk for me.

Yes that's one way of thinking. It gives more thrill if we choose a high odds bets and win it for real.
Also, choosing the best at random is something that gives a thrill as well.
Instead of calculating all the wins/losses and analyzing the predictions just choose the bets at random and see if luck favors you

Pretty good strategy when you make a betting pattern like that, most of us aren't that detailed in determining bets on small odds. Even with a score that is too high, we always think of some things that are not predictable.

[BOAEDAN]

I like when betting football exactly last ten or five minutes again but have to watch match to know potential to entry or not, look very surprise when betting last minute match and score is most important. Some time unbelievable with team can make above three goal last five minutes match ended, out our prediction why that team can make many goal at least minutes, will get bigger odds when playing betting on last minutes on football but you to need to watch it and know how team play.

There are people who do really seek out for some thrill thats why there would really be some difference when it comes to choosing on which one we do put our bet on and also when it comes to patterns then

we do have our own style and own choices basing up on the past experiences we do have and information on particular things.Preference is the thing when someone do much like to accumulate

small odds or choosing big two odds or more and for sure sports bettor does know when it comes to advantage and disadvantages between the two.
