High Roller Tailing

[danherbias07]

Have you guys tried tailing high rollers with their bets on sports and electronic sports?
Because today I tried doing it just for an experiment and I took a bet on 5 games even without knowledge about them. I didn't put too much money into it because like I said, it's just for a trial.
It didn't end up well and these are the results. 4 losses and 1 win.


I copied the bet of users who are mostly playing above $1000 per bet. Some 1 Ethereum and the other with 0.1BTC if I remember it right.
So I thought, these gamblers are not joking about their bets, they must have researched hard and knew who has the highest chance to win or the end result of the scores.
Question: Has anyone been successful in doing this?

I know it's not right to bet on a game without knowing about it, I am just curious if someone does this kind of strategy.

Never did that. Honestly I was not aware that we can see bets of other people on sportsbook. I thought it was private .
Anyways, I think that kind of betting is quite risky since you only based on their bet amount, not their winning rate from their past bets. Be reminded that there are people who bet huge just for fun.

I used to follow bets from high rollers that post their bets and it's only because that high roller was always hitting his bets and others started following him as well. It worked out for me at the time but I remember that high roller had a lot of losses since he also made parlays and teasers aside from the usual single bets. Even if someone's successful at this strategy it's only a matter of time until they lose since there are too many high rollers to follow and most of them don't show their usernames on the feed so you can't tally their individual record.

Only Stake.com is the only casino I know that have this kind of feature which user can let their bet picks available in the public. I try this before but for parlay bets only with +100 odds above since this already a pure gamble without analysis. I want others to do the picking random bets for me just to come up with a massive odds parlay.

I never try copying single bets but most of the high roller player is really doing some of their research on their bet. Maybe you just timing to copy his unlucky bets. Try it for more times to have a better data analysis.

I've tried betting on sports betting and copying other users' bets. As a result I won but what I regret is that I was not too confident to place high bets hahah.

I just casually place bets on sports betting and just like you, I also don't have any knowledge about sports and the teams that compete. Well, placing such bets is just for fun and if I can win, it's a bonus for me

Yes, Stake.com have that kind of feature and the curiosity did hit me on why there are a lot of gamblers who do bet large amounts like that.
Maybe you are right, it's just a bad day, I like your optimistic view about it too. I mean, this is what I am really looking for, those who really tried it and had a successful run or even the failed ones because I am trying to compare it.

I have tried this too and he/she is still active every day. A known user who has many followers tailing her picks in the chat box. Most of the time it is in a parlay and she will always warn everyone that is neither 100 assured nor a guarantee it will win. I think most gamblers who share their picks should put that note after their picks so no one will expect too much and they are ready to lose if it goes south.

The high roller tailing though is like a blind pick but I may be wrong on something.
@Eureka_07 may be right, there could be gamblers that are betting large amounts just for fun and it should be considered. Next time I will be trying picks that has low return but a higher chance to win. Like 1.10 - 1.50 odds.

1/5. It's a good thing you only tried with small bets. Don't you think they were deployed by bookmakers as bait to those who want to try copying thier bets?

I have not tried this though but seen copy buttons on the casinos. The one that I notice is that only those high roller's bets are the ones with copy buttons which is why I wouldn't trust it. I can see some usernames that have won many times but don't see copy buttons on them.

I have followed high roller bets in the past, but the same happen to me, it was one of those bad days for sports betting and I lose them too.

The fact that high rollers place those bets doesn't mean the game is a lock, in gambling luck is a fact and without the right luck, those bets can lose.

There are some threads that recommend a high chance to win sports bets, I think that method should work better.

[dothebeats]

I would trust high rollers when it comes to trading, but when it comes to betting on sports, I'd never tail them and would rather follow my degenerate people who bet a hundred dollars max on one event. The reason is, these guys will still have money to bet even after a lose and taking the huge odds, whereas us average bettors would likely consider every aspect of the game and apply logic to it in order to win, even if it does not give that huge return that these high rollers are aiming for.

They are just betting mostly on the possibility that their picks would hit - at least that's what the results you got tell me.

The copy bet feature is great,however the fact that it does not show the history of such user that you are copying the bet is letting you in the dark about their past performance and this is called a blind bet,the ones you have made are called like this.I usually copy only bets I strongly agree with and just to see that there are other people who think like me and bet like me.

In trading,for example as an analogy the website Etoro let you copy the trades of the top performers and you know whom you are copying from,however they also have a disclaimer that past performance does not guarantees future results and as such this can also be considered blind betting,something highly recommended not to do.

Yes, i have seen  this feature and this one is surely on Stake on which you could be able to tail out some bettors but i havent tested out this feature since im not really that a fan on tailing up some bettors no

matter how big their bet amount would be.You cant really guarantee about those picks to be high chances of winning.So it turns out that out of curiosity if these things are worth to follow on
then it do shows that its not.

Also, when i do make out bets then i do make out on something that puts up me some thrill and excitement on the time that i do make out selection
because there's no fun if you do just simply put bets on games which you dont even know.

This is just like copy trading if you are aware of it in cryptocurrency or forex trading, it's just unfortunate that your experience was not a good one as you have a 1-4 win-lose card that might drive you away from this thing. For me, it's good to copy their bet at first with a small amount in order to acquaint yourself with that sport but later on, I would suggest doing it on your own if you already have the knowledge of the game you gain from your experience copy betting.

I doubt it's a trap set by Stake, the feature can still be convenient for the bettors that use the feature because instead of clicking several times just to browse different matches, they can add it to their bet slip much faster with a few clicks.

For me it goes both ways, if I win my bet I sometimes get interested in certain sports that i'm not familiar with thanks to the tipsters that have good records or give out good reasoning behind their picks.

I also don't believe that those bets were deployed by stake. Remember, there are so many high rollers in stake.
This is why, they can very well afford to bet $1k and above, I've seen hundreds of thousands of dollars bet on this site.
Not following these high rollers as I know they are also the same people like us betting and hoping, they may know the sports but we have no
idea how familiar they are with that particular sports.
The OP's example shows that we can't trust these high rollers with their bets, much better to bet on your own to the sports you are very familiar with.

[nakamura12]

I have not tried it or even doing experiment just like that but what I do when betting is I follow the big bettor's bet and before that I have to make a research but not much research as I have a base bet to start with already which is from them and luckily I did won some though it's only a small amount unlike them. You can say that I go along with the bet that many people choose to bet and surprisingly it did work in some ways and I EVEN tried it in freebitco.in as an experiment to see if it would work, well not all the time.

I dont have doubts if those bets are deployed by Stake considering that they are really having lots of bets which it could be a thousands of dollars on each roll in a casino or bets on sports betting.
They wont really be able to reach out this reputation and popularity if ever they are really that deceiving their players and potential bettors on having those fake high bettors on the list
on which they do allow for someone to follow it.Its true that these bettors are just like us too on which hoping for some win out of their bets.It would be a good thing if Stake would be
providing some statistics of a certain bettor about winning rate?

[Fivestar4everMVP]

This is something i have tried in the past and even made a post about it on this forum, the same strategy OP used is the same strategy i used , that is copying bets from the high rollers with the believe that they must have researched well before deciding to wager such an exorbitant amount of money on a game, but amazingly, I discovered that most of this high rollers still end up loosing their bets as well, from my experiment also, I discovered that the high rollers that lose their money in bets are even greater in number than those who win.
Its really an amazing discovery I must say.

I have not tested it, and I also like your experiment which is part your research. What you done it is a research work which is very good because of the practical aspect of the research. But from what you have displayed from the images they odds are just like normal ones. The way other games are placed the same with these ones. The games are lucky winners games and not for skillful games.

You were a newcomer in the casino but those guys are real customers in the company so you can't compare yourself to those guys. They know the in and out of the site. So they can play any amount. I thank God that you played what you can loss.

[harizen]

Regardless if they are high rollers or not, the fact that they are choosing odds like that (over @1.90), I won't follow those.

Even with how good they are, the chosen odds will tell us that it's a risky pick.

Maybe at some point that they only bet, let's say around @1.50, I might consider tailing them if I want to bet on some sports I don't have any knowledge of.

[serjent05]

No, I don't tail anyone especially when it comes to sports betting.  Even with good knowledge, we are still guessing the outcome of a game. And not because they are high rollers, they have the capability to guess the right team or athlete to win.  Worst, because they have lots of money, they can just bet on whichever they feel comfortable even without any analysis of the component of the playing team.

Anyway, thank you @OP for setting an example not to follow any high-roller gambler I hope you recover your 4 losses soon.
