Would you really put time and effort into studying sports betting?

[qwertyup23]

So the real question is, would you actually study it, track bets, manage bankroll, learn odds and lines?
Or do you think it’s all a waste of time because, in the end, most of us still lose anyway?

Nah, I consider sports betting as the highest chance of winning in a gambling platform due to the technicality and application of skills involved.

In sports betting, actual information determines whether you are successful or not on your bets. If you have that crucial information regarding the teams’ statistics, overall performance, odds, etc, then you are increasing the chance of you winning in the process.

I am someone who believes that still luck plays a part when it comes to winning the bet, so no matter how expert you become in a particular sport you will never be assured that you will win all the bets.

And I will never pick gambling as a source of my income, I know I am not a lucky dude.

You are right when you mentioned that luck still plays a crucial role in gambling. However, you must also take into consideration factors that can increase your chances of winning in the process.

Sure, luck is something that we cannot control nor accurately predict. But once you are able to gather that crucial information regarding a certain team, luck now becomes your advantage because you are increasing the odds of winning in this scenario.

Sport betting is what we can spend more of our time playing and also learning about it, because it's a continuous process whereby we have to keep playing over time, knowing more about sports and learning it could be a strong advantage to us.

There's nothing bad if we create more time to know better in what we are doing, sport bets is what we are going to continue playing and we can't do without learning more about the various updates from it, that's why we play sports, watch it and also know more about it, because we also gamble it.

I also agree that one will have better chance of winning a bet compared to someone with no knowledge about the sport but even if we have the chance of winning is like 99% still the remaining 1% will be there that we might end up losing the amount and in sports betting recovering from the loss of one bet will take a few more wins so at the end it will just end up in a loop that might not generate much money as rewards even in the long run unless we are just lucky.

But you will need a good level of skill and luck too.

But to get good at analysing you just have to watch matches more often there is not serious course or thing to study about,if you watch matches often and you manage risk well your good to go in my POV.

It's not a waste compared to luck-based games in casinos, because there are winners who actually won from their analysis, and there are a few sports bettors who made a living from this.

If you're into sports betting and have been into it, you will understand the strengths and weaknesses of teams and fighters because you actually watch these games and have come to analyse the factors that will make them win or lose. We only need to put in more effort and time to get the best of our bets, so if you want a good result, then give it time and focus.

[DYOR+BTC]

Yes its possible putting time and effort learning or studying the possible outcomes of games because anything capable of putting food in once table deserves such attention and time. I know most believe winning is not all about experience rather luck, let me tell you experience is also required for good predictions in any sports activities. For example the win Manchester united got from Arsenal's home in there last game was there first win in Arsenal's home for the past 7 years, which means any team with such bad record will do anything humanly possible to put an end to such record which was one of the reasons Manchester united had the unexpected force to make sure that despicable record can be broken know matter the odd allocation.

If you enjoy sports betting and are consistent with it, why not? The more you understand sports and game statistics, the greater your chances of winning, which is obviously a plus in gambling. And yes, I know that doesn't guarantee success, but look at it this way: the more we know about something, the better we understand its limits, advantages, and disadvantages. This makes it harder to get hooked on an addiction because you know the real probabilities, not the idealized ones.

It's not a waste of time, at least it's not if you eventually start making a profit. I know that I can't do it, I simply don't have consistency... and I believe that most sports bettors are pretty much similar, we don't have what it takes to fully get into sports betting. So I guess most of us have fun with occasional studying, comparing, watching stats, and placing bets here and there.

I have tried, and I know it's not for me... people should be free to give it a try, who knows what can happen. After all, each of us is doing things in a unique way, so maybe "your way" can be a good one. Good luck.

If you truly believe it’s possible to succeed in the long run, then you already know there’s no such thing as overnight success here. It takes time, discipline, and a lot of losing before you even start figuring things out.

Doing this would mean putting all your effort into something you have absolute no influence on the outcome. In sports betting except you are really rich to the point of influencing the folks who play the sports or the ones who have massive influence, then you are only going to be guessing which sometimes, you guess correctly and most of the time would be absolutely wrong. You can analyse as much as you can, evaluate, or even study history of the players, it will not be enough for it to be absolute win. In short, its a futile exercise to spend time on.

For example, I've come to terms with the fact that I won't spend too much time on this because I've long understood how it works and that you can't beat the bookmakers. Or rather, it's possible, but extremely difficult. Professional bettors need to know all the intricacies and compete with others to get the best odds on a particular bet. It's also important to learn new things and connect with like-minded people who are also trying to get a piece of the action and live off their winnings. I don't want to overexert myself; I'd rather earn money through paid employment and have peace of mind, and gamble only for fun and with small stakes—that's my path.

I have been a sports fan since childhood and I have good knowledge about different teams. Still I cannot give the exact results of the matches, I can guess which matches are risky and which matches have a chance of winning. But they are not perfect, I have to depend on luck. No matter how much you study, the results depend on luck. But you can be a sports lover and enjoy the matches. Then you will not need to study and the knowledge about the teams will come.

[hyudien]

No effort is wasted, I mean, even if you still lose in the end, your effort before the loss is worth it for the next bet. Sports betting is based on skill + luck, if you just casually bet, even if you can win because of luck, what for? Because in the long run it won't always be lucky, it's better to learn it, put a little effort into the bet, so that the victory is not obtained by luck alone but with skill as well. And there is no need to study it too deeply, just spend a few minutes, it is enough to make betting options according to our beliefs. And the most important thing is to learn capital management, it is one of the strong foundations to stay in this betting world.

It is still necessary to do all that because that is only the way to increase your wining chance. To study is good, and to manage bankroll is Also good because even in Gambling casino it is also good to manage bankroll to minimize the level of loses. All these are the reason why people don't misuse fund. A good gambler should poses the characteristics to manage fund , set target and gamble with what they can afford to lose. Spending time to study sport is necessary because time is money expecialy when it is put in a thing that may yield result thereafter.

I've learned everything there is to know about sports betting and tried my hand at various soccer bets, from goals, corners, yellow cards and more.
Managing a bankroll is important, so I always consider bets that I think will win, even if it doesn't guarantee anything.

Or do you think it’s all a waste of time because, in the end, most of us still lose anyway?

Sometimes I think it's a waste of time when a bet loses, but at least I've tried to analyze sports betting, whether I win or lose I've tried to improve.

I believe that to be successful, it's worth spending time studying; it's possible to make good use of the available data to make more assertive decisions. Even depending on luck, we shouldn't gamble randomly; researching and understanding the possibilities should be part of the process.

I agree that there won't be enough views of the match. To start with, you can begin with one league and later switch to several countries where soccer is at a good level. Loving one club is not enough, and sometimes you even have to bet on the opponent to make some money there is no other way in this business.

Well for me, I think it would be totally worth it. Knowledge is so powerful that having it alone increases your probability of winning. At least, even if the odd is against you, you will understand why. Besides I do not believe that one can be a responsible gambler who is not an informed gambler. Those who gamble irresponsibly are not knowledgeable enough and that is why they lose  twice as much as the player who has done their homework, is able to know how to manage their bet and learn odds and lines.

[silpersurfer]

If you really enjoy sports betting but are also a busy person, try to take a little time to learn how to win bets, from careful analysis techniques to final decision making. It's nothing, if you place a bet but your decision is not based on further analysis of the match, then it's the same as wasting your money. However, on the other hand, one thing that must be understood is that there is no such thing as long-term success in the world of betting. That's all bullshit. As long as we are visitors, the possibility of losing will always be greater than winning. Long-term success is only enjoyed by the house, not its visitors. There are several efforts that can be made to achieve victory, but it's just about how we can increase our chances of winning.

[Muba20]

No matter how much we study about the game, it will never give us the results we expect. So, the more we analyze about sports, it will not always be positive for us. Studying about sports is not bad but it is not logical to rely on it. Some people think that the better a person can study, the better he can do in sports but the reality is completely different. If analysis could give maximum benefit to the gambler, then the gambling results of those who are experienced would be better. A player's performance on the field can change at any time. There he can get injured but in reality, no importance can be found by analyzing the data only.

Why not? If its the best ways to succeed and make countless profits, I'd be willing to maximize my efforts in studying sports betting. After all, we all gamble not just simply for entertainment, but to win and make a good income after.

However, we should not forget that gambling is not just all about profits but losses as well. We should not expect to be in consistent profits then as its surely impossible with gambling. The casino will definitely react to it.

If you're really want to focus on gambling you need to study it so that you will be getting profits in it. Because many people have turned gambling as a source of income so they always study it to get profit anytime they played. Gambling is just as entertainment but other have turn it a way of generating profit always. But other succeed in it. But i can't advise someone to make It away of getting profits because is always a risk you can't have guarantees of wining so you just need to be gambling with what you can afford to lose so that you won't feel it when you lose but if you mistakenly put money you're not abe to lose he will surly put you in a big issue so you just need to think wisely before betting.
