Honestly House edge will take you down at the end no matter how advance your tactic are....
But the story will be different if you're playing sport betting. If you have advance analisys, mostly you're gonna predict the exact result
To me I feel like I would have to put in a lot of time analising different teams if I were to start sports betting. I've never done that before. I feel like it would be time consuming to get to know all the teams and their statistics.
