If you really love a certain sport, it would be easy for you to understand things about the said sport. How most players would play, teams that are most likely to win and such. Let's say you've been a fan of basketball ever since, then you would ways watch games. It's easy for you to know what team is stronger. So if you would make a bet, you know who's most likely to win.
It's just a matter of knowledge about the sports and the players. Unlike other gambling who need luck, sports betting is more of analysis based on their history of performance.
Probably yes, me as a gamer, I can easily predict those who'll win in any tournament in eSports. The fact that I always watch the gameplay of every team, It will be my basis to have a good prediction and it can win me. It's easy for those who can analyze the gameplay and you can win it.
Yes, it's a matter of knowledge when it comes to betting, you need the information to make a good bet.
I'm betting also in CSGO and DOTA2 and some of it already won me money.
While it is true that you know which team or player is probably winning and which one is probably going to lose, it is not the point. The betting site is also 100% aware of that. Hence the varying odds. In sport betting, it is one thing to know which will win and which will lose and quite another to actually win.
Since you've been betting on DOTA 2, we will use a match between Team Secret vs. Team Mineski as an example. We know that Team Secret is probably winning. Both teams' playing quality, records, points, etc are saying that Team Secret is going to win. We may say betting on Team Secret is an easy money since we have a complete set of statistics that point to the team as the sure winner, however the odds will make everything confusing. Team Secret's odds may be around 1.02 and Team Mineski's is 4.5. Will you bet on Team Secret when your $1,000 will only give you $20 winning prize?
I probably wouldn't. I would go for a handicap bet for a better odds. And everything becomes more confusing from there.
