Which type of bet do you usually focus on as a sports bettor?

[rdluffy]

I bet on soccer most of the time
I prefer to keep it simple, betting on wins (1 x 2)

In some leagues, I use parlays, such as the Portuguese league, where you can get good wins

I rarely bet on goals or live betting

[Dunamisx]

We have a lot of options like totals (over/under), point spread, moneyline, parlays, and teasers. Out of these, which one do you mostly focus on as your regular bet?

In most of my games selections, I fo play over 1.5 for both team to score at least 2 goals in the match, which I know is most likely to come as a winning bet, I've tried it several times and won my bets, only on rare occasions I do also consider other options base on the match condition.

1) The sport you mainly bet on (NBA, NFL, soccer, etc.)
2) The specific market you trust the most

Am a sport bettors full time and I like playing soccer games the most, this is all about what I have preference for.

I bet on soccer, and I don't have any specific option I bet on. But right now I am betting mostly on under 11 corners because I think it's not easy for two teams to produce 12 corner in a match. And since I started playing the option in the just concluded African Cup of Nations, I have made quite a lot of profit. I even got 5x of the money I used in playing the option on Saturday.

Before I joined sponsored pools here on bitcointalk, I never used to bet on soccer. I had no idea which teams were strong, and I didn’t even know most of the clubs.
But when I joined those pools, I slowly became interested in football, especially the EPL. As Filipinos, we usually aren’t that into soccer and often consider it boring. But not me anymore. Now I regularly bet on soccer, particularly the EPL. I watch full game!
I guess I’m the type of bettor who only bets on markets I understand. Of course, even if you know the game well, wins and losses are still part of it.

I do not use only a particular option while gambling, I spread my options across different games depending on the team's record both the past and the present. In gambling, I would say their is no perfect option, any option can fail and based on that , gambling is totally a game of luck and you don't hit 100 percent accuracy everytime. I have followed influencers and tipsters as a bettor, they don't hit accuracy all the time. In general, gamble responsibly, do not gamble with what you can't afford to loose .

[mitchr4]

I often place parlay bets on football, taking the over 1.5 goals market for the second half only. I'm not sure if this works for everyone, but I personally find it gives a better chance of winning. This type of market is quite rare on most sportsbook sites. It's usually only available on platforms with an in-house sportsbook if you want to bet before the match starts. For other markets, I sometimes just take moneyline and over 1.5 goals and combine them into a parlay. I rarely play single bets, except for tennis matches.

Which do you think fits your style best, and why?
Are you actually profitable using that type, or is it more for fun and action?

It would be nice if you could also share:

1) The sport you mainly bet on (NBA, NFL, soccer, etc.)
2) The specific market you trust the most

And based on experience, what worked and what didn’t...

In my case, I always prefer to bet on football; I really like football, so I follow it constantly. Regarding having a preference for markets, honestly, I prefer not to let emotions influence my sports betting. The market I bet on varies a lot, always depending on the results of the research I do before the game. For example, if today there's a game between Manchester City and Arsenal, and after analyzing both teams I conclude that Arsenal will win and the odds are very good, then I'll go for the 1x2 market, betting on Arsenal's victory. If I analyze the game and realize that betting on Arsenal's victory is risky, but that both teams to score has a better probability, then I'll bet on BTTS

[Orpichukwu]

for me sports game remain the best and why i love it so much is because it is easy to predict than other games i have ever known. although not that wining is easy but i just find it easy than other. and apart from that the option i like betting is the BTS both team to score, over and under, home or away win. this option makes it easy and fun to bet, thats why i love sport bet over other games.

Even in sports betting we have different types of sports which we all prefer. Everyone knows which type of sport they are more interested in and which one they are not, and I know we will love to bet on the type of game which we love to follow up and watch, not just games we don't pick interest in. These days I see football to be the most popular sport people bet on, more than every other sport out there.

[Betwrong]

I bet on on football most of the time and it's usually multi bets, but sometimes I bet on MMA too.
Football worked for me, MMA almost never.

[Beparanf]

Based on my experience, Handicap matches with + point spread works for me. This is a popular method among with my friends that do sports betting especially on live betting.

There’s a high chance that leading team with huge score gap sometimes do a lousy defense on the last quarter if the enemy team already surrender. Bench sometimes do the hustle to cut the score down as much as possible that typically make the + point spread meet.

I’m always winning using this method.

[Dunamisx]

I've seen a number of people that doesn't stay on a single bet type, because they know that insulting is how they can have their phone more better in gambling than when they are more concentrated on playing a particular game or using a single style and strategy in playing there sportsbet in gambling.

[rachael9385]

I try to avoid unders a lot of times because most of the times that I went with this pick it turned out to be a disaster. Basically my favorite option is always money line but I don't combine more than 3 games.A lot of people might say that going with a straight win is risky even if you are betting on a team that's really good in performance. The thing is, there are no safe options when it comes to sports betting.

[hyudien]

The answer depends on the mood, because of all the options you mentioned, I've tried them all, sometimes I bet the moneyline more often for each week, sometimes switch to another option and so on, but lately I bet parlay more often. Trying to find luck with small capital. Honestly, it hasn't worked, because I try big parlay, and one other ticket I choose the safe bet option, 1x2 or other options, to at least cover a little of my big parlay loss.

Soccer is one of the most popular sportsqe all know and gamblers can make quick money from it if theh know how to predict the outcome of different matches. Making money from sport betting is not really easy and so many things are involved for profit to continue coming. The reason why so many gamblers are losing money to sport betting especially soccer is because they bet on too many matches at once.

[Pandu Geddon]

We have a lot of options like totals (over/under), point spread, moneyline, parlays, and teasers. Out of these, which one do you mostly focus on as your regular bet?

I often bet on football matches. For the type of bet, I adjust it according to the match I'm interested in. If it's a match between major teams, I tend to bet on the Moneyline and totals. But if the match favors certain teams more, I will make a parlay bet. 
I can't keep winning every bet, especially when betting on parlays. I often get disappointed when one of the matches loses.

I like sports betting more than any other bet maybe it is because I love to play football sometimes but outside  I also think it is because sports betting was the one I started with and so I'm use to it and I understands it more than any other bet. Game like basketball I don't really know how to play it because I don't understand some of the options and the ones I have tried several times didn't come out well for me so that's why I channeled all my energy to sports and it is really better than any other I have tried and I think if I had started with basketball I would have prefer it to any other.

Soccer may be very popular no doubt but gamblers still find it very difficult to win after all their predictions not because they can't predict correctly but because it takes luck factor to win in gambling regardless of knowledge on sports you will still need to be lucky before winning your games. Choosing to be only a single game is not bad but there is no guarantee that you will be certain to win all the time but your chances of winning ill increase even as you will need to stake very high to be able to win a reasonable amount when you are lucky.

[7juju]

We have a lot of options like totals (over/under), point spread, moneyline, parlays, and teasers. Out of these, which one do you mostly focus on as your regular bet?

I prefer parlays, I like to combine different games to get me a reasonable odd to play with little money and aim to win something reasonable.

Which do you think fits your style best, and why?
Are you actually profitable using that type, or is it more for fun and action?

Parlay suits my gambling style since I know so many football clubs and each weekends almost all of them play matches and I don't have money to single bet all of them. It's both profitable and fun to me, but as you know we are all losing on the long run.

It would be nice if you could also share:

1) The sport you mainly bet on (NBA, NFL, soccer, etc.)
2) The specific market you trust the most

And based on experience, what worked and what didn’t...

1. I mainly bet on football, I guess that's what you are referring to soccer right?
2. I don't have specific market I combine all the markets based on my forecast on each game.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

What works for me is parlay, over and under, I do use those options more frequently and that's because if I'm analyzing a game, I do it to suite such option and it is more favourable to me I  terms of giving  me more wins. I don't always change option frequently because the ones I'm using is effective for . If I stake on parlays, I take my cash out and leave, it has been working well for me.

[CryptoYar]

With sports betting, number oriented way is key to long run success instead of betting on single team and huge risk multi bets that are mostly won by casino. Popular choices of regular winners are mostly point spreads and totals since these markets are fair to make sure that each side has equal chance of winning and that smart bettor can find tiny math edge. Moneylines are mostly fun game or game played by long shot hunters, but when it comes to serious money, odds tend to move in your favor when it comes to specific areas like NBA player stats or NFL spreads, where news of day greatly changes certain game. Only lasting way of staying ahead is to avoid trap of trying to get back losses and using firm unit based money management system.
So, it is most fitting way to look for value bets, where chance of success is greater than betting site suggests, and markets are not used much, such as second half odds or player specific numbers.
