Bet on live game or while game hasn't started yet?

[Twentyonepaylots]

Found myself losing when the money line changes from 1.75 to 4.35 as the game began. But sometimes when I also wait for the game to start, it changes to worse such from 1.75 to 1.10

Never heard of this instance before. If you would bet from pre-game, the odds that you bet would be fixed and won't change afterwards. On visuals yes it would change especially if you would refresh the gambling site but if you would check your betting history, odds should not change the moment you put your bet into a particular odd. If it does, then there's something wrong with the website. Changing of odds more often is something which is present with live betting given that there are many gambler who does it. In every bet, there would be a change with the odds and as the game goes on. If gap on scores is big, then expect for a lower odds and lower returns. But if scores are xlose to one another then odds would still be big. Losing on the other hand is not because of odds. Betting with higher odds won't guarantee winning and would mean higher risk as well.

Cast your bet in a match that have yet not started or bet when the game is already live?
It must have been asked before but in case new sports bettors have not yet read such thread, reply back your opinion about it.

I bet my games when the match not started because the odd will be bigger and better then since it is not certain if a particular team will win but when the game is live, there's every tendency of odd reduction especially when a particular team is enjoying the possession and ball control of the. When ever the odds changers in a particular bet you played, you should have in my that the team is likely to lose in the game or there's a possibility of a player who's the hit man in the team is injured and it's unsure if the player will be playing the game.

Based on your statement, obviously, you are only focused on your favorite team to win therefore you can't really take advantage of the odds in the Live Betting if your betting option is only limited to that team not unless you are willing to face risky betting options towards your favorite team, of course, associated with high odds.

Generally, being "neutral" is a more appropriate and considered thing when doing Live Betting since your decision won't be based on your Favorite team but rather, on how to make profits by playing with the odds regardless of the team.

Anyways, live betting or betting on pre-match odds, both require a serious approach. There are really bettors who really have the interest to only bet on Live Betting compare to betting on pre-match odds and vice-versa. Self-preference indeed.

I think this answer depends a lot on the profile of each gambler....

Live betting is more enjoyable for those looking for an "adrenaline", but the risks are greater and you have to make quick decisions based on what is happening during the game (although I've heard reports of sites scoring a goal before it even happens... . unproven). My advice to anyone placing bets online is to only place single bets.

However, I am surprised by your presentation of odds, as usually pre-game odds are quite stable.... compared to what we have in live betting.

I particularly like pre-bets, I do my studies based on statistics and set up a bet, then I only worry about checking at the end of the game.

Most of the time when I prefer to go with the underdog my choice will be live betting, because during the match we'll get better odds so that the bet amount can be minimised and our luck can be tried. This at times brings luck and in such a stance I've won @10 odds, but those are very minimal bet amount. Other than this when the match is in critical situation, where any of the team could win I prefer making bets which will have high chance of wins.

Underdogs are usually good to bet because of the odds, no matter it's live beating or pre-game.

But if you watch the game and thinks that maybe the odds are not going in your way, perhaps you can bet again to minimized your losses and that's mostly I done though. So for me it really depends on the game itself and how the teams are playing that time. Or maybe you can go put a big bet on the underdog even if the odds chance slightly on their favor, still a win win for us.

I'm comfortably doing both, I bet on games that haven't started when I kwonthe two teams playing very well that I can easily predict which team is going to win due to the form they're on and their passed history between both clubs and where the game is been played.

If I don't know anything about the teams playing but I want to bet on them then I'll only place my bet during the live games as by watching the game you can see who will score first, win the first half or other options that your sportsbook gives you to place your bets on.

Sometimes too I can bet on the game before it starts then as I'm watching the game and I see some conviction that the game is going to turn out in a  specific way then I can bet as the game is going on. Watching the games can give you the believe you'll need to place your bet.

As long as the chances of winning are high, we can choose which one but that also doesn't rule out the possibility that the opposing team can reverse the situation so we also have to be aware of who the opponent is. You can place a big bet, but that's also risky, especially if it's an underdog who usually performs better than his opponent. So if before the match we have seen that the odds are higher and coupled with the results of our analysis, it shows that the odds are higher than the opposing team, we can immediately place the bet, watch the match, and hope we can win.

back to the strategy of each bettor. every bettor has a strategy that can make himself profitable with minimal risk such as betting before the match starts or when the match starts.
but in essence it's all about the profits you get and if I look at some of the replies, more are using 2 strategies, namely betting in 2 ways as the OP mentioned.

[Solosanz]

I do both.

Mostly I bet on live game because I forgot to place a bet before the game started due to my busyness or other important thing in my real life. Betting before the game hasn't been started will make me more comfortable to bet, but I usually bet before the match started since the odds can change based on people bet. If you're bet the match that will start in the next month, you're make a mistake.

It is boring betting on a football match after it has started. The possibility of a wrong prediction is very high. Also, there would be too many dissenting and voices in my head that would lead to confusion and sometimes downright refusing to bet on the game. Because I do not want to have to deal with that I do what works for me and that is to place my bet before the game begins so that I can either carry on with other activities or simply sit and enjoy watching the game with a bottle of cold Heineken. Some other sports bettor may be able to do the both smoothly like the user above, it can not be me.

That statement reflects your personal perception, but in reality, there are many bettors who enjoy placing bets on games that are already in progress. While there may be larger betting volumes on pregame bets, live betting exists for a reason. It can be likened to trading, where you observe stocks that are experiencing a drop in value and take it as an opportunity to buy. Similarly, bettors seize opportunities when they arise without hesitation. However, it's worth noting that sometimes emotions can get out of control in these situations, which is not ideal.

I don't generally make much distinction, but in play betting can seem to offer much more favorable odds in certain circumstances. Thinking back to the Man City vs Man United game that took place a little while ago, the odds were starting to creep up against either team winning when City were clearly the favorites based on the seasons play before that point. Before they scored there were some pretty high odds, I think only 15 minutes into the game against them winning. So it really can make a huge difference if you just let a little bit of the game play out and it seems like there is potential for strategies and unexpected odds that will work for you. However it is very hard to pin down as the bookmakers are also trying to refine their algorithms all the time too.

If you made a bet on 1.75, then for you this change in the coefficient means a radical increase in the chances of winning (and by the way, at this moment you can cash out or just hedge the bet and get a guaranteed profit) 
In general, you need to understand that the line is always changing - before the game it changes a little even if there is big news, but during the game it changes dramatically and here many catch their chances.

^That is sometimes possible but I think the multitude of differing opinions and thoughts that arise during the game can lead to confusion and even make you hesitant to place a bet. It is important to find a betting strategy that works best for you, and in your case, placing your bet before the game begins allows you to focus on other activities or simply enjoy watching the game while savoring a cold bottle of Heineken. Everyone has their own preferences and strategies, and what matters most is finding an approach that suits you personally.
I will go on a very exciting moment to bet while it was not started yet while watching the match.

I also prefer gambling live on sports events, the odds change so much during each possible attack on such events. Gamblers with nice being skills can catch the great odds combinations with nice predictions but I suggest players doing bets before the event if they have no such ability to analyze the situation. Not all gamblers have the same potential to make money through live games but it is really different experience for those who can.

Yes, I also agree with this because during live we can predict much better than just guessing from their abilities on paper before the match. Especially if as long as the match is still live we can analyze the possibility of who will win both from how the game progresses and how the odds are. but indeed the results or profits will not be profitable when betting before birth, but in my opinion this is safer than just gambling based on laps or uncertain predictions

[dezoel]

Live betting can be so intense and at same time advantageous for the gambler as you have to make your decision on which side of the odds to bet for based on how the game is actually playing out Infront of you as you watch and you also needs to be very quick in deciding cause odds could change at any seconds.

I prefer to bet on live games when my staking power is high by reason of the odds size of the team that's leading in the game and it's when you have good amount to stake with that such small odds can give out a tangible profit. And live games if you really careful and patient to observe before placing a bet it is very hard to lose compared to betting when game hasn't started yet.

Though you are right that it somehow becomes easier to choose a side once you see how the game is going because it can clearly be seen which team is playing better and which one has better chances of winning, so you go ahead and place your bet based on that, it's important to keep an eye on the time because if you don't make it on time or if it gets late and a team takes a big lead, you might have to bet with very small odds.

But, one should also remember that at the end of the day, you can still lose the bet even if you have bet midway through the match, because in any sport, it doesn't take a lot of time for a game to turn, so it is always important that one makes bets with amounts that they can afford to lose.

But do you know that team A can be playing very well and leading before while the match can suddenly change and team B would win? Live matches are very difficult to predict and the ones that is more encouraging to take are the ones with low odds which can still make someone to lose.

But, one should also remember that at the end of the day, you can still lose the bet even if you have bet midway through the match, because in any sport, it doesn't take a lot of time for a game to turn, so it is always important that one makes bets with amounts that they can afford to lose.

Even you can bet around 75 minutes, I mean just 15 minutes to the end of the match and the match can still change in a way that someone can lose. I do play live matches and they are risky very well too.
