Betting on totals instead of picking the winner?

Likewise for me, I barely bet on the which team to win the game, and that’s because I feel that option is far too risky and more complex to choose, except of course my guts convinces me beyond all reasonable doubts to go for such options in some rare cases. I ordinarily feel comfortable choosing or making choices based on goals or the double chance options, because these options are a lot more easier to occur in most of the football games. But it’s crucial to remember that gambling can’t be always the predictable, the fact an approach worked this time, doesn’t always guarantee it will the next time.

Double chance might seem like lower risk, but the odds usually aren’t that great. It also depends on the teams playing. Betting on totals is indeed interesting, and actually, there are a lot of markets you can choose from, like corners, which I think can also have pretty decent odds. I’m pretty sure that basically, gamblers consider the odds rather than the more fun options.

I keep reading people who think they can beat the odds which were calculated by ton of years of data analysis and maths, guys it doesnt matter at all the market i know it could see like some markets are better than other but in the reality they are not, is only odds and nothing more, i know is rough and not good to hear but is only like that.

It's simple as that but don't belittle the years of experience and analysis that are being done by sportsbettor. It still helps to be honest and that gives them the idea on whether they should go for totals or the match winner for their bets. Both are fine because the odds that we bet is the factor why we pick either one or both of them at the same time. While all the math and analysis looks not helping at all, it does but won't guarantee win.

Betting on totals feels more safer regardless of who the winner is and that is an option many would never skip. Even during a match that seems more likelly who the winner would be, it still itches me in my guts to play Overs/Unders because you can almost never go wrong with it.

Feel is different from our personal experience, when I was trying to experiment on what I feel is easier, I was not only betting on the overall total but I also bet on the team total.

But you know what, my output was very bad, I had worse losses betting on totals than on point spread or handicap, so I just stopped it and only bet on it occasionally, but my focus now is on the point spread because not only is it the most popular market, it is also really challenging to me and I feel more entertained.

In sports betting its quite boring if they only have a match winner of the event, so its good opportunity to the players if they have more categorization of set of events such as the first score, first 10 goals, under total and over total of games even the players scores. The higher the number games the number of chances of winnings to the player at the same time opportunity to the casino to earned with these games too. If you really well known the player and the teams performances its an edge and higher chance to win the bets. I do love having a first 10 kills in dota and first 10 goals in NBA.

Yes one of the things that make sport betting more attractive to bettors is that sport betting give gambler's room to select from wide rang of varieties of event's all available on the bookies market.


This varieties of options to pick games like picking an underdogs and over 2.5 odds or under 1.5 odds all of this make the sport market more appealing and motivats multiple engagement.

Yes, I used to play this type of betting, especially in cricket. I used to bet on how many runs would be scored in each over, for example, if the 15th over of the game was about to start, I would bet on how many runs would be scored in the 15th over. I would also bet on how many runs were likely to be scored in the power play. I would often bet on how many nights the batsmen at the crease would be able to bat. This at least saves a gambler from having to analyze the team's performance. In that case, a gambler can bet on the current state of the game.
