Can you bet on a single game with 50.0 odd?

[Smartvirus]

I wouldn’t consider it for a second. Even when that game is Barcelona Vs the bottom team on the table. I would feel something is up and something has got to be up else, how do you go for such an odd, it’s oddly. When you find big teams in that situation, you’ll just know they aren’t using there first eleven, probably have their youth team lined up. When it’s with other mid tier teams, then it’s a likely lost bet, I can’t go for such odd with low probability of success.

[AliMan]

Many times I took the risk, but it ended up nothing and seldom times winnings could potentially happens but in the long run you'll be losing huge amount of bets. We can't predict what the reality of the outcome in every single game whether it's 50.0 odd or not. Successful rate depends on how the game works as planned. Challenges in each team literally gives them a lot of struggle to achieve the game plan.

[Menerever]

This kind of increase in odd in partially risky too for the bookies because someone could actually take the risk and end up to win the bet because the team that was expected not to win the match, can luckily score a goal during penalty or could just win in the last minute.

It's not risky for the bookies since after all, a bettor should really have a DAMN BIG LUCK to nail those odds. Even several years of betting won't give a possibility to hit those line of odds. There's even more chance to build a community in the outer space than hitting those huge odds total in a multi-leg parlay bet.

Even the expected payout is huge just imagine the amount already gained by the bookies because of those losses from majority of their users.

If ever someone hit that huge odds the bookies can easily cover it and just a normal day. The next hit might not happened even for months later.

You could, but why would you?

You could bet that the worst team in the league wins against the best and still you wouldn't get these odds. You could bet a specific score to maybe get these odds. But these sub-bets in the same match also act as a multibet in a sense. Because not only are you counting on a certain team winning as you would in a regular bet, you're also counting on them winning at a certain score.

So I don't go after high odds in a single match for obvious reasons. The odds of winning are not making it worth it unless the payout is astronomically high. So it's a fine balance between how realistic a bet can be for the chosen outcome and the payout multiplier. If you're an experienced gambler you can eyeball it. But most people are too emotional to handle something like that.

So I'd say then playing multi-bets is also a worthwhile endeavor because the potential payouts can be astronomically high even with a very small stake.

Winning like that would be a miracle because it is very unlikely, like a Lottery win. If it’s live, it’s just even harder. If you want to really bet with high odds, I think Formula One could do it because there are a lot of lower drivers who have such high odds that winning them would be a miracle, and you will never know if you will win.

That’s just part of the thrill, right?

not really, you will still just be donating money to the casino, there is no thrill in that, at least not for me.

also in F1, while driver skill is important, how good the car plays a biger role.
if anyone watches F1, they know it usually gets dominated by one or two cars for the entire season. so if you are betting on anyone other than top 5 drivers, 99% of the time it's a losing bet.

[Ambatman]

I have not really placed a single bet that high before with such odd.
I have placed on a little above 10 and it wasn't even when the match was live.
I just do it for fun
There was a time I would have and I regretted not doing it
Man city leading Real Madrid one goal to nil and Real Madrid did a two one comeback.
I wanted to just place the bet but I couldn't because I was kinda vexed by Real's performance.

[Strongkored]

If you took such risk before, did you win?

I have never tried to take a risk with such big odds, as far as I remember it was 20.00 odds but in betbuilder in NBA match and if I am not mistaken it is the biggest odds I have ever won.
The match ended in a draw and surely the odds drawn are not that big and therefore your live betting may experience problems when placing bets because the odds change quickly so that there is a big possibility that bettors fail to place bets.

[HelliumZ]

No, I have never placed a 50× Odds bet on any bet because a 50× bet means there is a lot of disparity between the two teams. It might be a match between a very strong team and a very weak team. If we assume in cricket a match between Australia and Malaysia, it is certain that Malaysia will lose. So what happens if you bet 50x on a match like this if the result of the match is a sure defeat?

[Su-asa]

Before the games starts, the both odds will be lower but might become higher immediately the games starts, but it can only become higher when any of the club is losing while the game is ongoing. However, the odds might be bigger if he club is losing and it also depends on the numbers of goals/points the club is losing. Actually, if the club is losing 2:0 at first half I might take the risk with the amount I can afford to lose so that even though am not lucky to win the game I will still not feel bad about it and it also depends on the club, I can't risk in some clubs am not familiar with (like the weaker ones). So it all depends on the gambler, if they could take the risk or not. To me, like have said earlier, I will only risk what I can afford to lose.

With a bookmaker's odds of 50, the chance of winning the game for the team with such odds is approximately 1.9%. Of course, this is a very small probability. Nevertheless, even such odds sometimes win. However, there are many nuances here. For example, the number of outcomes in the match matters. If there is a draw in the match, it can pull some of the winnings to itself and make your bet a little less rational. In addition, the initial probability distribution matters. If the initial probability of this team winning was higher, but it dropped under the influence of an uneven cash flow in the line, then you can try to place a bet on this.

[Hirose UK]

Bookmakers know and understand much more about team in match and how they give odds for each team, usually most teams that are not favored do have fairly large increase in odds as the match progresses and this increase usually indicates that the team will not be able to win.
I have never tried to bet like that with risk that is many times greater even though it can be big win if successful, it just that the chance of success is below 1% and 99% more is failure.

[Cityhunter34]

I believe that some of you here who are sport bettors must have experience of what I mean.

During a live match, we can tell that the odds of the game usually change continually depending on the bookmaker you are using.

Yesterday, I placed a bet, it was a parlay with 8 legs but I lost the bet because I predicted Bologna 1909 to win. Before the game started, Lecce had 5.00 odd while Bologna 1909 had 1.9 odd but after the first half time of the match, the odd of lecce have increased to 30.00 and it kept increasing, just few minutes to the end of the game, the odd was now 50.00

This is nothing new for so many of us because it happens continuously. Can anyone or have any of you here took such risk to place a bet on a single game with odd ranging from 10.00 - 50.00?

If you took such risk before, did you win?

This kind of increase in odd in partially risky too for the bookies because someone could actually take the risk and end up to win the bet because the team that was expected not to win the match, can luckily score a goal during penalty or could just win in the last minute.

Actually gambling is a game of luck, sometimes is always good to take some risk. More especially during the time that the game is about to end, that time normally brings better odds because the bookmarker having already know that anything can happen at any given time, so sometimes it normally yield good profits. For me I even prefer betting on single live game with a better odds because gambling is about taking risks, although sometimes I normally won with it.

The possibilities or impossibilities of predicting the games rightfully stance determines what the odd may be, so are being manipulated by the bookmakers by increasing the odd of the games even at a close time for the game to kickstart as a trick to attract you even to bet on it singularly.

It always happens when the game is having lower rate of bets and they try to lure you with the increase of odd even at a close time for game Kickstart or already started.
The aim of the bookmakers in such drastic action is to make you bet on it and wanting you to fail. Meanwhile... Formally we have always known it to be that the earlier you places your games is the higher the odd and the lately you places your games is the lower the odds.

So there is always a tricky set of traps when the odds increases at the start up of the game which makes it more difficult to predict safer on winning sides.

Short story from 2009. I was playing at betfair and in September or something there was a tennis game between Federer and Tsonga.
Federer lost the first set and had odds of 1.6. I bet him big with like 1500$. Fedex won the 2nd and led by 5:1 in the third. Should have been cashout time of course since trading on betfair can give you huge odds. There have been odds to up to 1000x, most traded odds though have been between 500-750x on Tsonga.

Long story short, Tsonga came back against a prime Federer, I lost big because I was too greedy to trade 4$ for a nice win on both sides.
Huge odds do exist and can win, you just have to be at the right spot at the right time. Unfortunately almost all booking only offer you like 50x, even though it's as good as impossible for the guy to win. Only exchanges like betfair, since it's player vs player, sometimes have these kind of super big odds.

Live betting is usually more interesting if you want to grab high moneyline odds which aren't available prior to the match. But as far as I can remember I haven't experienced taking advantage of as high as 10.00 to 50.00 odds while the game is going on.

I think the highest that I bet on while the game has already started is almost 8.00. That was a DOTA II game in The International. I bet on an underdog team simply because of their picks. It was the Medusa pick that convinced me they'd win it. And I won that match.

[bhadz]

Why not? but are there that kind of odds still nowadays? I only knew about less than 20 odds. I don't think that the bookies are even going to have that much and it's still going to depend on how much the volume for that specific match. I have seen those folks that seem to be assured with 1.01 odds and yet they still lose their money. Someone who's bet a million dollars for that IIRC and was even posted in this section and yet lost that money. Sometimes it's worth it if you are playing once in a lifetime YOLO but not with a lot of money.

[Cointxz]

I do place bet on random parlay with 100+ odds through copying someone parlay bet using small amount of money. There’s nothing to lose by placing small bets on high odds though.

But on a single game, that kind of odds is almost a trap since it’s the actual game condition which the bookie referring that odds and not pure stats so it’s very hard that kind of game.

I doubt someone is willing to take that kind of odds on single game especially during live game.

Of course there are, if you bet on correct score, the odds can be higher than 50.00 odds. But, we know how unrealistic the match would end in 4-4 or 5-5, usually in top teams, there are not many goals scored since both of them have good defense and they play better.

I would say betting with huge amount of money in very low odds is more dangerous than betting with small amount of money in huge odds, because you can be fine when lose small amount money.

[ethereumhunter]

I never place a bet for such odds because I don't have a courage and can not see if I lose that money. Seeing the number is 50 is too big for me so I prefer to place a bet for small odd although I don't have a chance to win but I can accept if I lose in the end of the match. It is important to realize who we are so we will know what is our limit and we can not compare it with other people. We can use some enough money to place our bet but we must accept the outcome later and no need to regret with that because that is the risk of playing gambling. We need to be wise to realize anything can happen in gambling so we don't have to think much about gambling.

Winning against a bet of 50x odds at the beginning is definitely a matter of luck. Usually, the loss rate in such bets is high. There may be many bettors who like to take risks, the situation is completely different. However, we often see in various matches that when a team is in trouble, the odds increase greatly. Taking risks at that time also increases the chances of winning big. However, such a situation is unlikely to happen. It is natural that Saudi Arabia will not have much chance of winning against a team like Argentina. If you take 100 times odds in a match of this team, it can only be considered as a lottery. I am not interested in placing such a bet. Because my chances of losing are high.
