One of my mistakes was that I chose low odds, could you believe I have lost a bet of 1.05 odds before and many times? I remember one to be in 2016 or so, it was in Brazilian top league, Série A between one coin and Sao Paulo over 0.5 goals, I accumulated 11 matches totalling over 10 odds with 1.3 and above odds, but only two among was lower than 1.1 and one of it made me lost the bet. Another one was 1.06 odds when Spain under 21 played with a small country in UEFA that won (or maybe draw, I have forgotten) Spain. I do care now about odds, I do not often accumulate and choosing only one match is better for. I use what I can afford to lose, this gives me the courage. Example is when a club is playing another club and have like 1.2 odds, if I think the club can win, I sometimes just go for first half win which makes the odd to increase, it has helped me and also failed me and I prefer going for over 1.5 odds matches. I make my analysis before placing bet as well, but I do not bet often.
Exactly low odds does not guarantee to win most gamblers make the mistake of taking low odds and sportsbooks know this so they intentionally lower the odds of the perceived strong club so that they can attract gamblers. Football betting is not as easy to predict as most people perceived it to be but the fact is if luck is on your side even with high odds the bet will win is all about the risk. I developed a new betting habits recently that have lowered my chances of losing, i just pick one sure club even if the odds is low i put the high amount in the bet many times it works but on a few occasions I lose too.

In sports, choosing low or high odds is hard choice, but we can't just follow the name of the team. The truth is, we need to see the team performance, players and others. As mentioned by @YOSHIE, the team's analysis can determine the possibility of winning or not. Low odds will generally be chosen by most people, because they see the big name of the club itself, and fill it with confidence if this team will be the winner, but cos bad performance, they lose. For example between MU vs Everton, surely the odds for MU will be lower, because the probability of winning is high, so people will agree that MU will win. In fact, MU's condition is inconsistent, so, the results of the match they actually lose or draw. So, makes an analisys before put your bet, to makes your betting get better chance too.

Let us assume that high odds start from 1.5 and above while low odds starts from 1.2 and below.
I specifically like football gambling. When I started to gamble, I go for high odds, but I was not that experienced and I lost a lot. I gained experience but I preferred to gamble on low odds. Only what this led me to is to play more and I noticed losses too. This is just a means someone can also become addicted because low odds will only want you to accumulate and bet more. If you bet more frequently than usual, regardless of the odd, be it high or low, loss is inevitable, it is guaranteed.
I play less often unlike before, I reduced the money I am using to bet, emotions gone and I win than before. How about you people, are you high odd punter or low odd. Can you also tell us your experience? At you losing or you make profit from the odds you are taking?
In order to have a chance to make a profit in a game with a bookmaker, it is better to try to play odds of 2.0 and higher, otherwise it will be extremely difficult to achieve success.

That is definitely an interesting question, having high odds does seem a bit dangerous at times and there are people who would specifically want to play for low odds overtime so they are able to get the full advantage of a certain situation without risking it all, but having high odds might be advantageous in situations where you are 100% sure that it's going to happen so some players might close their eyes and think of it as a safe bet as well. I do think that many points made here about the parlay is not even relevant because only some sports book offers it and you won't be finding it in your normal sites that often.
In some sports like boxing, you can really find higher odds especially for the underdog boxer. And some of them can really pull off an upset. So if you have the feeling that an upset will happen, you can very well place a bet for the underdog. This is the sports where I usually bet on higher odds. But when it comes to basketball, I prefer to bet on low odds as I know, the chance of winning of that team is high. So it is better for me to win small rather than totally lose my bet. Which means, that this decision sometimes depends on the sports you are betting on, your confidence about the outcome and how far you want to take the risk.

You are like the opposite of me because when I first start to gamble I start with low odds, 2x to be specific but I noticed later on that it is riskier since I lose a lot but now that I learn I just play with higher odds because I just feel that they are less riskier on me. I can win big by risking only smaller amounts of money. If you bet small amounts on low odds then it might be true that you won't stop early but you can go for more in order to increase your winnings but once your play with a high odd and you hit your target already, you will feel contented because you already won a decent sum of money. I only switch to low odds once I am the mood to wager, to level up my account.

Betting on games with 1.1 or 1.2 only gives a small return and we still have the risk that we lose all our money.
Low odds have many other disadvantages, people that go for low odds having lesser amount of money to win, this will create a sense of using more money to bet, a gambler can because of low odds add more money to bet which may be more than the person betting budget, the low odd will give him a sense of having more chance to win, but in the end, the match may end as loss.

Usually, i'd take the high odds whenever I see a team consistent enough to handle weaker teams. Sometimes if there's a favored team that has odds lower than what i've expected, i'd plan to place a bet on them mid-way through the match hoping to get higher odds as their opposition tries to make the match close as possible. Low odds are the ones that I tend to avoid, even though it's tempting at times to scrape those small profits through live betting or pre-live I still can't forget the tough losses that i've had from taking these low odds.

Imo it depends on the bankroll and the value of my bet when choosing odds. I choose low odds if I'm betting huge amount while high odds when betting low value or what I can afford to lose only. I knew that low odds doesn't guarantee but most of the time I win when choosing that using high amount of bet. I'm just a balance gambler so I usually manage my risk base on my bank roll.
I don't know if there's a person that using same odds without considering value because that's what this topic is asking.

Well that you lose a lot of times when you are going for high odds is just the nature of the game because in the end a high odd means that the outcome that you picked is pretty unlikely to become reality, at least for the bookies. I also are not betting that regularly anymore but when i do then i am going for very basic bets for football matches, like winner, draw, loser and i also go for pretty safe bets which have low odds then obviously. When i have a few games where i am pretty sure that my predictions come true then i also combine 2 or 3 single bet to one bigger combo bet which obviously has a pretty good odds then.

It turns out that because of people who prefer to bet on favorites, the odds are always distorted in their favor and it makes sense to bet only on underdogs. But I remember that someone did a study that if we bet only on the favorites or only on the underdogs, then we lose the same percentage on average. Does this really mean that bookmakers have learned how to accurately determine the probability of outcomes in games?

I would choose the higher odds which is 1.50, but in real life, I don't usually bet on odds lower than 1.80 because I feel like I'm not getting the value of my winning. Just imagine, if I would always get the odds of like 1.80, that means I will give 20% of my winning to the bookies which I would never benefit in the long run. Also, bear in mind that 1.80 odds does not give you more than 50% chance of winning.

I choose neither of them as it is because of them that I have migrated from sport betting gambler to slot machine player.The fact is simple one time or better several times I have lost 1.15 odd bets the same as I have lost odds of over 1.5 and over 2 not seeing any difference.Since it should have a difference as most of the times the 1.15 odds should be winners I decided to quit from now almost 2 years or more and only play the money allocated for sport betting in different slot machines.I feel great now that I only play rarely sport betting because I used to become furious anytime I would lose a 1.15 odd bet.

When I was still new in sports betting, I always think that low odds would make me profitable in the long run, but after weeks of the experiment, I come up to the conclusion that betting based on odds alone does not make you a smart bettor. The thing is, if you keep betting on low odds, that will make you stupid because you will not analyze anymore, you don't consider the stats and hence you will not be able to apply if you see some value on the odds available.

Depends on the team and the sports I guess, some higher odds betting can be more profitable same thing with the lower odds. I personally prefer the lower odds sometimes since It doesn't require much of analysis though of course you should be more aware about the possible profit you can get on lower odds, better not to expect that much since there's still no guarantee of winning here. Lower odds might be a waste of time and money to some, but we all have different approach in betting here, it's good to have your own stable strategy at least to maximize the odds.

I prefer to play more rounds with lower risk just for fun. I know the wins are not that high but if you like to play to waste some time it's a better option. I know people who do the opposite and usually put everything in a single bet and if they win they're happy for the rest of the day and if they lose they come back another day. I'm too nervous for that LOL and I'd probably spend the rest of the day drinking tea to calm myself down LOL

Before the pandemic I used to just bet on both high and low odds depending on my mood and confidence. But this time, I am betting in a more mature and responsible approach. I am lowering my bets and I can sleep without a single bet. Now it really depends on the sport I am betting although most of my bets are around 2.0.
My favorite betting sport is basketball and I always prefer my odds to be around 2.0 so I usually use spreads.
In boxing, UFC, DOTA 2 and soccer I just mostly use the money lines although I prefer not to bet on very low odds like 1.30 and below.

I have not really put too much attention to whether or not I prefer low odds or high odds but taking into account I am kind of conservative with my bets I suppose I am conservative as well when picking the one I think will win at a sport match, however I also try to look for value, I look at the odds and if I think the odds have been distorted by the public support to one side then I will take the risk and bet on the other team or player as the odds are simply too good to pass up.

When there is a change that occurs in the odds that we usually use to make easy profits to get a win then you can try playing at other gambling places and only people who have a very large amount of money dare to take risks, maybe that should be done for the first time trying various positions and after getting a good position, you can immediately use a larger amount of capital than before.

With this sports gambling we there are some people make a strategy with this which is the changing before the game really starts some which is making some sort of manipulation with the number of betters but again it is sports bet anything can happen while in the game so it is all about the players/teams thing if they will win the game but most people make a sure profit with the low odds because of course tons of people will make a safe bet of it but in the world of sports again anything can happen that's why some of the players make a YOLO bet means they make a huge risk with the higher odds this always happen into the underdog games.

Unless you play something of impossible, it isn't correct to follow odds; follow your instinct, read stats and be informed about the match that you're going to bet about, if you do this, maybe your success will be better than look only at the stats. I usually anyway play at the odds between 1.5 and 2.5.
