I was wondering if you make bets on sports that you have no experience in?

lets say you have never watched boxing, or soccer even, would you still consider betting on these matches?
how will you do it then? random or will you use a tipster service?

I was thinking about getting into sports betting but the games are countless and i don't know which one to choose and i don't know anything about majority of sports.

Of course, few years ago i was betting on hokey - i didn't know back than anything about hokey and also i didn't watched hokey games. But i know how to read statistics and i was very accurate and made some extra cash. Just chose game and bet on statistically better team.

That is why sports book have like 1.9 odds on both teams if chances of winning for both are 50% while dice takes just 1% because in sports we can use brain and smartness and some people even fix matches lol so its much safer for a gambler to bet on sports he knows while betting on unknown sports is same too because you can win also or loose also but very risky actually.

Don't put words in my mouth. Where did i said that I was betting on 1.9 odds? What does this has to do with my post which you decided to quote?

Doing sports betting without knowing about the game or without being interested in sports means that you're going to rely solely in luck. I think I would do it. After all, what's the difference when you bet on dice sites that you don't know what would be the output as well. There might be some "science" behind it if you analyze the game but you don't actually understand the game so what's the point of trying to understand the stuffs behind it.

It's just gambling. No need to take it so seriously.

Everything is about luck at the end of the day, but you can reduce luck in sports betting by betting on the usual winner, but it doesn't always work and the odds are always in the higher risk anyway. Its like the Rafa Nadal vs Roger Federer finals, nobody would have guessed that one.

Well i don't think that just because you don't know anything about the sport, betting on it would be relying on pure luck, no. The difference with sport betting is that we have a lot of information that we can gather or a lot of tips that are available on the internet. For example, i dont know anything about cricket, i can look up tips online that would give me higher percentage of winning.

True, first there are lots of statistics, second bookies will never give you high odds on favorite(of course, they can also make mistake but very very rear, if they do there are also statistics to look at), tips are also good, @pereira4 why would you pick nadal vs federer to bet?

Without having knowledge on the game and you do betting means, It's not sports betting we call it it's slot games betting. Yup in slot games only we play blind games without thinking anything here the result depends on our luck. Same thing happens if you play betting on without knowing games.

And again, if you don't have knowledge about sport it doesn't mean that you are stupid and unable to read statistics.
