Why do we always pick odds below 2.00?

[Uhwuchukwu53]

Chosen of odd by gambler, depends on the gambler calculation, because with the risk over the game , two odd is very high and such risk may possibly failed, gambler look for all round possibility where the odd can easily not be a barrier, that's while many stick to odd below two. The higher odd the higher impossible outcome or uncertainty, it's better to choose odd which risk is lower because the purpose of all gambler is not just fun but see themselves wining too.

Two odds seems the most favourable odds to bet on. If you pick the two odd from a moneyline option, you dont have to wait for many games before you win. Only one game can give you the 2 odd or you add two games to your parlay. Maybe odds with 2x 1.4 odds and above to sum  it up to 2. In summary, there is less risk when you bet on only 2 odd but there is no certainty that you will win.

To me, I would say that two odd is very difficult to get unless you will have to combine two or more games to get it. If it's betting on a single two odd it is not that easy to get because most of the two odds is either they Draw with thier opponent or they loss against thier opponent, but truly going for single two odd is the best instead of accumulating odds because the reason why most gamblers always find it hard to win in gamble is due to too much accumulation of odds, you will see some gamblers betting on 10-15 games in thier bet slip sometimes they might be lucky to score 9 correctly and the remaining one will blow everything up for them. The Reason why I like going for single two odd is Because if you win from the two odd you won't be expecting other games to play, if you're not lucky then you just let it go.

Of course, that's true, but it's precisely because of the big odds that we can have an edge that allows us to be stronger than other players who bet on the opposing team in the hopes of winning at least a little. I like the approach of betting above odds 2. That's my strategy. I try to find options where the team will put up a good fight and maybe even win. I bet selectively so as not to end up winning more than I lose with such bets. And when I see other players betting on odds of 1.1 or 1.04, I just laugh, because there will definitely come a time when they'll lose everything—I've seen this many times.

I don't always pick odds below 2.  In fact, I'm far more likely to pick odds that pay better than 2 because I gamble against the odds, not the event.  If you aren't even going to double your money on a bet, you'd better be pretty sure that you're going to win or it probably isn't worth it.  That's why my favorite bets are parlays.  They increase the odds a great deal without needing you to hit a longshot to win.  Always bet the risk/reward scenario and not who you think will win.  That's the game of gambling.

This is all about risk and it’s better to stay safe than changing bigger odds and losing bigger money. Odds of 1.90 and 2.0 don’t have much difference though, but when it goes against your betting limits and how much you can spend on a particular game, it’s better you let it be and not risk too much. Gambling games are generally unpredictable even though the team you’re betting on have a higher tendency of winning the game, you just have to be careful of the unforeseen impossibility turning into a possibility in your presence. It’s better to risk a little and win than to risk big and lose.

[Mate2237]

One thing that people consider when gambling is that they consider small odds as having a better chance of winning.because bookmakers always give small odds to teams that has a greater chance of winning so many Gambles fall into the temptation of also believing that the big teams will always win. This is one reason why most Gambler's don't really gets to win big . Because, they can't go out of the normal procedure of playing Gambling.


Gambling is majorly influenced by luck, so Gambler's should not look at the odds while gambling they should take the risk no matter how big the odd is because, because there is no need of taking a small odd when there is even no guarantee of winning.so go all out with the big odds that will bring large returns when luck smiles.

Sometimes even odds below 1.1 ending up with a loss, and that’s when surprises happen when gambling. The odds are not just the amount of chances or risks but also luck. Last week with a combined bet, most of the games were above 2.5 odds and still won the bet.
Sportsbooks are only analyzing the recent games of each team and adjust according to the amount of bettors as well, but not studying always the conditions or other unknown factors like the best player performance alone.

Luck is the major factor determining the final outcome, odds are not always a good indicator, otherwise, everyone would keep winning and drain casinos.

I’ve been looking at sportsbook lines lately, and I noticed most of us usually pick odds around 1.80 or 1.90 when we feel confident about a team. But I started wondering if we’re that confident they’ll win, why not go for 2.00 or higher so our stake has a better return?

Do we really know by how many points they can win, or are we just being safe with the lower odds? Sometimes it feels like we settle for smaller profit instead of trusting our read on the game. What do you guys think, better to stay safe or always aim for value odds above 2.00?

No one wants to lose their money easily, many see higher odds as a risky pick that's why they are playing it safe sticking to small odds. There is still no guarantee with the picks but still there are people who are more into bigger odds, I know someone who always go for the bigger odds most times he fails but sometimes he wins and whenever he does he wins big.

For me I think it's better to safe because the chances of winning are higher than when you aim for big odds above 2.00 but I still think it's a matter of choice and what you prefer.

It is, but it is not a real probability. Most people understand it wrongly...

Of course, you can't truly predict the outcome of a match. The odds provided by bookmakers are only based on the team's or player's past performance and analytical data. These odds continue to change over time, especially once the match begins, as they adjust according to how the team or player performs in each round or set.

I will say everyone choose what they think it’s best for them, people going for lower odds are just managing their risk, they believe the lower the odds, the lower the risk involved in the bet, but because you bet on lower odds doesn’t mean you are going to win, don’t be surprise that you still going to lose, because when gambling their is nothing like assurance, little team which you will be confident that they won’t be able to win the top team might end up surprising us.

But I started wondering if we’re that confident they’ll win, why not go for 2.00 or higher so our stake has a better return?

The more the increase their odds, the more their confidence is going to be dropping, your Chances of winning is also going to be dropping, that’s why you are suppose to manage risk, do what works best for you, don’t be desperate to make money when gambling.

I do pick lower odds, and I do win time to time, even as the amount which am always winning is not always much, but at least am always winning.

Bookmarkers are very smart people, just because odd is small doesn't guarantee anything and because it's large doesn't mean you aren't going to win. I have bet a multiple odd one time and I saw a cashout, the game was almost won but it's the time that has not yet completed for it to tick checked, since the remaining momeh left isn't significant, I cash out the money and bet on the match to be under 4.5 goals, it was 6 odd and the game was tense because goals were flying everywhere. The game was risky one and I won the bet again, sometimes you may not get the chance to win such kind of games.

I feel it's better you settle for what you know you can win instead of running after odds, go for multiple games if t the games you believed in have small odd. You can multiply them as much as you want and make something good from it.

those odds are only a reflection of chances of the team not the accuracy of it so do not expect that lower odds will always win however it has more chances of winning that’s why more people bet on it for safer chances

You are not much of a gambler, are you?
How high odds may seem to be, does define the outcome. Most times the odd we deemed risky is actually the safest odd in the game I have seen the lowest odd 0ver 0.5 lost in many games while odds of 7,11 even 23 was well played. You have to make the right pick before you can win, and the right picks for each game is what makes betting unpredictable.

Odds in sports betting and odds in dice are quite different. In dice, the odds are purely system-based which is the real probability, just with a house edge added. But in sports betting, it’s different. The odds can be undervalued or overvalued, so it’s your job to find the value if you want to win.

That’s the real science behind the odds, but not many people understand it.

Most just think that lower odds always mean better chances, which isn’t true at all.

[YOSHIE]

Why do we always pick odds below 2.00?

In general, bookies don't want to place the best team with high odds, they will place the lowest odds, they know, based on analysis and predictions, the low odds team will win.
For example: the match between FC Inter Milan vs. FC Kairat Almaty odds for FC Inter Milan 1.04 and for FC Kairat Almaty 50.00 and a draw of 17.00, if you look at several matches for the two clubs, It is difficult for FC Kairat Almaty to beat Inter Milan, there is a clear chance of winning for Inter Milan and more people place bets on Inter Milan.

The lower the odds offered by the bookie, the lower their chances of paying, so the difference between high and low odds is on the team itself.

[purple_sparkles]

Usually, the higher the odds, the lower the chances of winning according to predictions, since players also aim to end up on the winning side. If you decide to bet on high odds, it’s better to do so with small amounts, because the risk of losing is too high. Those who choose odds of 2.00 or lower are generally not as risky or reckless.

Because these are safe odds for bettors to choose, as the chances of winning are greater than with higher odds, but there's still a chance of losing.
However, some bettors prefer higher odds because of the greater profits and the adrenaline rush they experience, as it keeps them curious to keep track of the match results.

I think it has to do with experience because bettors see that bookmakers estimate this odds according to the probability of winning or winning chances. On the average, most winnings are in the range of smaller odds. You just have few big odds that have won matches and that is why bettors become surprise and express regret if big odd game win and they didn't bet it. So it is about the winning that gamblers get from the games they bet on. I have won with smaller odds games like 1.48 to 1.90 and slightly in the range of 2 odds (which are few). Therefore, I look out for better teams with winning chances if their odd is below 2 odd but when the odd gets to 3, I have to be careful. And I avoid direct winning that has odds as high as 10

However, some bettors prefer higher odds because of the greater profits and the adrenaline rush they experience, as it keeps them curious to keep track of the match results.

At same time these are identified as safe odds, they also represent a decent final potential profit to be made, as it almost doubles the initial bet, so gamblers analyze the cost benefit involved on the equation and end going for such odds quite often. Not that it's going to work on long run, but psychologically, that is how they interpret the situation, while being more aversive to superior odds (above 2.00), which represent higher risks, and less winning chances.

For sport betting the simple knowledges is always be placing your money to the favourite teams because if people did that especially if they can do it consistently i am sure their winning rates will be much better rather than bets on high odds or mediocre teams but other reasons could be very various depend on the person themself but for me personally why sometimes i was more likely to bets with low odds or below to 2.00 because i want to ensure my bets were safe although it will not 100% guarantee safe but at least placed the money into low odds will have high percentages to won the bets
