BEST TIMEZONE FOR SPORTsBETTING

[goldkingcoiner]

I think the entire debate about the best timezone for sports betting is not really worth talking about in detail. The events are scheduled and it does not really matter what timezone you decide to place your bets in. If anything the only reason for choosing timezones for sports betting is out of some superstitious belief that it will somehow influence the outcome of your bet or make you luckier/unluckier. Seems a bit strange to me, but people become superstitious over any tiny little thing. There are such naive people in the world...

Bet whenever you like. The best time to bet is when you have done your research and you have a clear head.

I get it, I really do. You're all in for the -3 or -4 time zone, but pal, we're gonna have to agree to disagree here. My money's on the +2 time zone, the cream of the crop for sports betting.

Let's weigh it up. The +2 time zone? It's like a perfectly balanced sports platter with a side of Europe and a sprinkle of America. European matches? They're your daytime main course, letting you relish every pulse-racing moment without giving up your treasured forty winks. When the sun sets, the NBA rocks the house, and you're there for the showdown without pulling an all-nighter.

I know there's a fan club for the -3 or -4 zone, but let's cut to the chase: it's selling you short. You've got a day-long marathon of Euro games, but what about the high-octane NBA clashes that leave fans on pins and needles? Bowing out of those for a bit more shut-eye? Sounds like a tough break, buddy.

There is no difference upon using timezone when you bet for sports unless there's the schedule of the game that you want to bet. Then, of course that you've got to bet on it before the game starts or if you're into live betting then any time is a good time to bet. There's really no significance of which time we should bet in those sports that we're following. You bet when you're good and when you think that you've got enough and has a final say on which team you must bet with. If you are this type of detailed person then that's good but there's really no importance for including this in your way of betting.

As said it is all about the gamblers timezone. The importance needs to be given for the data gathering through which the outcome of the game/match can be predicted. At times it is possible to see the odds varying higher. Maybe that can be chosen as the right time than considering the timezone. Personally I make the prediction on the winner of the match earlier and prefer live betting. This in particular is to have better odds on the predicted team. I don't think people follow superstition while choosing the odds, I've heard they give importance to the dress they wear.

I use my country time zone which is the best. People in their country will use their country time zone because it will be the best for them. I know the time the favorite leagues fall under if I am using my country time zone and it is the easiest.

Exactly. I don't think time zone is really something that you should pay a lot of mind too cause well the internet is here so if you're worried bout timeslots you can literally view it live from anywhere in the world that has internet access. And even if it weren't the case, what would you do? You gonna move to a different country to find "a much desirable time zone to gamble with"? That's just a massive waste of time. I personally don't bother with timezones and use whatever my country is in because of the abovementioned reasons and because it's not really worthy of stressing yourself over. If you're too worried about missing out on your games might as well keep a note or a reminder on your phone, set alarms and stuff like that. Time Zones should be the least of your worries as a gambler.

[Woodie]

Timezones have never crossed my mind because the type of sport you enjoy to watch or wager on will determine were you will spend you time!

But looking at the chart in the OP, I think European time sits well with me as you have most of the top football  leagues all in one time zone..Talk about the EPL, La liga, Bundaliga etc, and this includes other sports such as European basketball, handball you name it though when it comes to NBA,NFL, UFC, golf timezones here could affect you and will mean sacrificing a bit of your sleep to catch up on some of these sports.

I get it, I really do. You're all in for the -3 or -4 time zone, but pal, we're gonna have to agree to disagree here. My money's on the +2 time zone, the cream of the crop for sports betting.

Agree with you, +2 time zone is the sweet spot to catch most games being played at once

When it comes on betting a particular game then you arent able to do so just because it wasnt still open yet but most likely it would really be reflecting out asap or days before. In speaking on trying to look or see the actual game and if it does happen on dawn then its up to your choice whether you would be setting up some alarm clock or would really be just looking for the replay if you wanted to.Its true that it is the least thing
on which a bettor would really be minding off because no matter what you do, timezones arent really that an issue plus it isnt something that you would really be that affecting out your winning chance.
This is really just only pertaining if ever you would be able to watch up that certain game or not but in speaking about game winning chance because i dont see any correlations at all.
This is why its not really that much of a concern or thing to mind about which as been said that it is really that least to mind on.

[blockman]

Like the Subject of the topic says. For you what time zone its the best for Sportsbetting?.

For example i dont think european zone its the best, its one of the best but not the better of alls.

For me to see the events, having a life and also betting in life without having to wake up in the early morning its......

-3 or -4 time zone.

I have never thought of this.
If the concern is just all about betting freely, we're all free to do that in our respective time zones. This is a subjective concern and if you're good with your preferred time zone and that makes you feel better as you bet, follow that routine otherwise you can bet any moment you wish to be.

Bet whenever you like. The best time to bet is when you have done your research and you have a clear head.

I agree and I get this a lot and on the latter part, it's very important to have it so you won't be betting based on your emotion and you've done enough and gives you a reason on what you should bet with based on that time zone you'll like to depend on.

in short, it depends on what sports you want to watch and bet with. and where you are currently residing. and when you are betting online, they are open 24/7 so you have no worries about them getting close. i guess, that's the advantage of online gambling sites, you can practically access them anytime and anywhere you want it. so the timezone factor doesn't matter in your betting activity. but when it comes to watching the sports, now it depends on where you are and what sports are you particularly interested in.

[ralle14]

Based on the matches that I bet on, the best timezone would be around -3 or +1, as I like to bet on esports that are always scheduled in the EU or the US. On top of that, I also bet on the top sports leagues in the USA (NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL) and some of the major football leagues (CL, EPL, Serie A, etc.). In my timezone (+8) it's not the best if I have to consistently watch and bet these matches throughout the week because they'll start at the earliest around 7 pm then the next set of matches would be around 1-5 am while the later ones would be around 8 am to 12 pm.

[danherbias07]

I have never considered the influence the time zones can have on ones participation in sport betting, but it makes sense, since the major leagues and matches usually take place in fixed countries or collection of countries and there will be inevitably time zones which are more favorable than others. I assume that those living in very extreme time zones and need to get up early in the morning to work, do not have much options, beyond watching their matches in repeat or just see the summaries of the games they betted on.

In my case, I live in -4, and I can agree that it is favorable, we can watch American sport leagues, South American ones and European ones without staying up too late at night or waking up too early in the morning. 

Well you seem the only one who understand the topic.


I cant believe what you are answer here, obviusly you can still betting on pre market matchs and no matter the timezone, im talking about specifically if you want to see, enjoy and bet in the lives markets. How can it be so difficult to understand?.

For example if you live in Australia some games of European football are at 2/3/4AM of Australia, so you only can see and bet IN LIVE MARKETS if you are:

1) a degenerate gambler with an addiction.
2) No life and no job to wake up early in the morning.

ITS EASY TO UNDERSTAND THE POINT.

You could've said that in the opening posts. "To take advantage of the live betting games." You took the rough way of explaining your point in the first place that's why people had a hard time to understand what you are trying to ask.

Still, I enjoy -12 timezones especially if their games are happening at night, like I said in my reply. I do wake up early so it's not a problem for me.
Yes, I do live betting on NBA games.

No life, no job? Have you considered that there are a lot of people nowadays who work in their homes after the pandemic hits the world?
Flexible jobs. That's the new normal now and we can finish our jobs anytime we want in a day because the companies are saving money on electricity, space, and rent.
Please do consider them and don't judge and assume just because you have a traditional day job.

[Fundamentals Of]

I don't know if there's really a best time for sports betting. What's important is that you place your bet and that's all. You know the matches beforehand so you should also be placing your bet early. But if you are a live bettor there must be a considerable problem because you will have to make some adjustments. Big international sports events could be everywhere. They're in Europe. They're in the US. They're even in Singapore or Australia. 

[Nrcewker]

I don’t think time zones really matter here? I mean in sports bet, the thing that matters is just a perfect sports game and knowledge about it. I know in the timezones you have mentioned, you will find lot’s of games and events, but what if you don’t know about the game or the team which is playing? Do you still wanna bet according to your rough estimations and risk your money? I would rather suggest you to bet on one game with proper calculations and then only you can make good profits.

[Cantsay]

Like the Subject of the topic says. For you what time zone its the best for Sportsbetting?.
~~~
Obviusly this its really subjetive.

I don't think I've ever considered time zone when gambling; as long as I'm not late to wager on sports, that's all that matters.

But if I had to pick a time zone, it would be GMT+1 because that is my country's time zone and what I'm used to, until when I go into bitcointalk and start utilizing its default time settings, which are different from my country's time.

And because people on bitcointalk have different time zones, it seems meaningless to me because you can't expect them to change their time settings just to gamble. It's just as you said Op, Time zone really is subjective in gambling.

[Davidvictorson]

Like the Subject of the topic says. For you what time zone its the best for Sportsbetting?.

So in resume for me its:

- Best -3 or -4
- Really good 0/+1/+2.
- Worst majority of the pacific timezone +10.

Obviusly this its really subjective.

With my country's timezone (+1), most live football games during the week are aired at about 7pm -10pm and they are live matches while on the weekends the live matches are aired at from about 2pm. So following my country's time zone, I make my bets during the day. I am not bothered about waking up early to make a bet because of my time zone unless I want to.

Is it important to pay attention to the timezone? because all this time I have been gambling using my own country's timezone and I haven't found any problems with it. Moreover, usually the platform will provide a countdown timer for users to be able to take part in an event and that can make it easier for users who don't want to miss an event or match and you just have to adjust it to your clock or alarm.

[bitbollo]

it depends what you want playing ... and when! likewise, if you like to play UK horse racing live or USA NBA live match, you don't have so much choice.

more or less there are the same games for each timezones the only difference can be related the type of games/country playing.
Of course as European I find much much more easy to me play games between 8 AM - 10 PM, outside this time it would be something hard to comply unless I will place bets before start of the matches.

The time zones issues while gambling are only relevant in the case you intend to watch the match on live, perhaps if your friends and family. And trust me, there could be a huge difference between just reading a summary and watching it on live.

Imagine you are a person living in India and you love the American Leagues, unless you can stay up all night, it would be very unlikely for you to ever watch those matches on live and even less in a social context.

If you are serious about betting on something you really like, you will find ways to bet on it. A damn and sh*t reason to miss your much-awaited live bets just because of dealing with the timezone that is different from yours. I'm a busy person but can cope with live betting on the match I preferred and most of those matches are international ones. Really out of my usual timezone but I'm already used to it as a sports bettor for over a decade.

Maybe it's not with "best timezone for sports betting" but how you adjust for it. It's subjective.

Since you are talking about specifically "live betting", found a damn way how to adjust.

[maydna]

It's okay if you have time to bet on sports betting because it can help you manage betting moments. But I don't use it because I don't think it's needed. What's important is that when I want to bet, I can check who will fight, and if I'm interested, I'll place the bet immediately. If I miss placing a bet, that's also okay because I think there are still many sports bets that I can choose to bet on and that will also allow me to analyze each team that will compete.
