Value bets

[DaNNy001]

With what I have noticed about bookies, they really know how to make the odds perfect to how they will make money from people. Going for small leagues that you do not understand may even lead to more losses than going for big leagues that you understand. People only talk about valued bets, but it is not what it seems in reality.

The bookies are just doing their business they understand the game so well that sometimes they arrange an attractive odd to entice gamblers so that they will be moved to add a particular game to their slip but at the end the outcome of the game will not end well. The idea of going for small league or bush league as some may call it is not even a good choice cause in those leagues lies disappointments and uncertainties since the games can be manipulated.

To some extent I just bet on games or leagues that am familiar with but even with that there is no exception that some of the odds that is being placed are quite the opposite of what they have been set by these bookmakers. But the truth is that these bookmakers are more familiar with the teams and in their performance so they make their best analysis and place and arranged the odds accordingly.

Well we can always try to learn better than the bookmakers it is possible. They are not completely immune to being wrong. This is where we can come in if we truly understand the sport and how betting works, we can actually take advantage and rake in profits. Do you say you always agree with the odds? Surely sports fans will disagree at least once or twice.

This is an option for me to bet almost blindly, where if there is enough luck then you win some money, it is not bad, but for me it is a risk, I prefer to bet with what I know, based on my wisdom and not with respect to those numbers that are presented.

The option to bet almost blindly is something that doesn't occur frequently. There are times when we might just be moved to place such a bet, but the majority of the time, as a gambler who wants to enjoy the game and try his skill, going with what you know should be the best thing to do, at least to see if you are good at your prediction or not, if you should improve, or if you should stick to it.

Are you aware of the term value bets? Maybe you know what it is but you just do not know that it is called that. Well anyway, value bets are bets where their odds are a lot higher than the true probability. A value bet is when the odds offered by a bookmaker are higher than the actual likelihood of the outcome happening. This allows you to have an edge over the bookmakers. There are a few things you can do to find value bets. First is to get into smaller leagues. When the market is smaller, there are more room for error or mispriced lines. Make your own statistical observations. Do your own analysis by looking into stats and track record. Do not just depend on the bookmaker. Take into consideration also the public bias because bookmakers might depend on them too much. Sometimes bookmakers adjust lines based on where money is going not really based on true probability. With these in mind, you can score a few consistent payouts. It is not just about choosing the winner but taking advantage of the odds presented.

Except as you said that it likely to work often for the favour of the gambler with those smaller unpopular leagues, I don't see this value bet strategy to be what would work in the long.

Anyone can recall the Manchester derby that was played days past. Much bias from football fans were swaying towards Manchester United favour with less regard for Manchester city due to the poor results of city in their last 3 games compared to United. At the end, the odds were high for United who were seen as favourite, but they lost it 3:0. Never trust the bookmakers they know what we don't know.

I think this happens when a match is on a series. So, there are several games composed for that match.

And whoever wins the first game gets the lower odds by the next game. I have noticed that for many bookies and games that I bet with.

It's worth it to bet on these matches when you know that the team that lost first have the chance to come back and win the 2nd or 3rd or next matches because of the odds quite higher than before.

going with what you know should be the best thing to do, at least to see if you are good at your prediction or not, if you should improve, or if you should stick to it.

If because he makes blind bets for me it's like not wanting to bet and leaving everything to chance, for that thank you I'd rather play roulette or the slot machine which is a thousand times better, I think that sports betting requires much more knowledge combined with emoticons and likes, something that is more coherent than mere luck.

Yo, I feel you on this one. Value bets are where the real money is if you know what you are doing. It is all about spotting when the book is off and the odds are bigger than they should be. Dig into the smaller leagues, do your own homework on stats and past performance, and never just trust what the book says. Watch how the public is betting too because lines move more on hype than reality sometimes. Nail that and you can get some steady wins it is not about picking winners blindly it is about playing the odds smart and taking advantage when the book messes up.

I agree with you on this, the option of betting blindly doesn't happen frequently. and sure Sometimes I get moved into making random Predictions without making analysis, this mostly happen when i test my skill and it seems not to be working. Then I will have no any other option than to pick randomly and see how it goes, I feel that this feeling is very common among gamblers but for those gambling addict they can decide to do that due to frustration or panic since they're being so unlucky to win through thier skills. While those responsible gamblers will see it as a way of trying new things.

That's just it; if you want your game result to be based on luck, the person should position it on slot games and not go for sport. If you want to bet on sport, then you must make time to predict and at least give it a try before allowing luck to play the rest of the role.

yeah bro, that’s just how it goes...  No shame in that, happens to everyone.The difference, like you said, is in why you’re doing it.
Responsible gamblers know when they’re just experimenting vs. when they’re spiraling.
Bottom line - gambling’s supposed to be fun. if your “analysis” ain’t hitting, better take a break than spam random bets and hope luck saves you. Luck doesn’t save anyone in the long run.

Yes, luck simply chooses whom it wants, when it wants, and it won't depend on the type of player—it could be a professional, or it could be a beginner who makes childish mistakes and doesn't adhere to money management, emotional control, or loss limits. In any case, I want to strive to improve my strategies in the game, not rely on luck, because that's what might allow me to start winning. Although professionals aren't immune to this; even with a good strategy, they can have losing streaks, sometimes too long, which knocks them out of the game.

Yes, and this is crucial not only for me but for any player; anyone who learns and knows that games of chance like slots are just luck and sports betting are about knowledge , then everything will be better and will adapt to things as they are, there's no way it could be different.

Indeed there is no way in which it could actually be possible to do it differently; aside from how it has been portioned to be, there is a slot for luck and a sport for knowledge and prediction skill. I don't know why most consider themselves to be lucky in everything and will want to put luck upfront instead of taking their time to make an analysis on the sport before betting; they just choose randomly.

Betting blindly is openly tempting your luck; I personally do it often.
I recently tried an option at an online casino where the minimum odds are 2.40. You select the day's matches and place a completely random bet (the results are bizarre). I spend only $1 (the cost of a coffee). If I guess correctly (very difficult), I get a nice 90x, which isn't bad.
The winnings are reduced to a very low percentage, but in the end, it's really fun.
