any tips on sports betting?
Chris answers:
It all depends your goals.
If you want just have fun by betting on your favorite sport and team, you need to know as much as you can about the sport, team, players, events etc…
Now, and I suppose it’s this, if you want place bet to make some money, you absolutely need to do two things :
First, you have to bet with the odds and the odds only. Of course more you have info about your bet, better it is but you have to play with statistics and not with intuition.
Second, you have to follow a system and stick to it. For this you can try to study odds from last seasons before place some real bet. Let’s take an example :
Let’s say you look at the 2009 – 2010 season odds for Boston Celtics and you see that this team won 70% of their match.
The next season, if the team looks as strong as the last season, you can believe that it will have some good percentage of wins. So you can bet on all this team match. Again, I don’t know about the real stats for Boston. This was just an example.
Or you can try your system directly without study the odds from previous season but you need to start slow with small bets to try your system.
As you discover the sport betting world, you will see there are thousands of potential system. The thing to remember is to play with the odds.
For good bet, I recommend to use two bookmakers :
Pinnacle.com is excellent bookmaker. It’s serious and the odds are among if no the best you can find.
Betfair is also very good. The particularity of Betfair is that you can bet on an event will happen but you can also bet on an event will not happen. That means that you can trade on live sport. If you bet for a team to win, and this team start to loose, then you compensate the fact that you will loose your bet by placing another bet on the same team will lose.
Betfair and trading sport is an all new world by itself but very interesting, and if doing well can be very lucrative.
I hope this help

Let me just direct you to http://www.sports-betting-insights.com/sports-betting-tips.html where I list my top 15 tips for betting on sports. There’s also a ton of other tips, strategies, and advice throughout the site, but these will certainly get you started. As always, best of luck.

Mandy asks…
sports betting……..?
i was wondering if anyone knows any good methods, types of sports to bet on, or experts on sports betting… because i was thinking if i can start out with a $50 bet, win, then bet the whole $100 (minus a little for juice), win, then bet the whole $200, win, etc…7 times, that would get me approximately $5000-$6000. i have done some betting, and my overall betting career is about even, and i know that for even the best betters, 7 in a row is huge. i kindof know what to look for when i research a bet. but i was wondering if anyone had any opinions on this, strategies, tips, etc, stories about your own successes and failures in betting. thanks!
Chris answers:
Seven in a row is a pretty tough sell. Even a good sports bettor is 55% (or better). You’d also be better off saving up a little cash and starting with a bigger bankroll than $50. Start off with $100 at least. Bet no more than $20 on games until you reach, say $250. Then increase your max bet to $35 or so. When you get to $500, pay yourself $100, then keep going so your bankroll for betting is a decent chunk to where you can be betting about a hunskie on each play. Then start paying yourself more regularly.
Winning at sports betting is not only about picking the right plays. Don’t bet more on games just because you are on a hot streak, because that’s a quick way to lose a bunch when you come off it.
