A lot of us here love sports and we are betting at the same time.
I am not successful in this kind of venture but I would love to know from people here on what they do in order to win.
They say that sports betting has no house edge, but why is it it's still hard to win here?
Yes there is no house to bet against but it's still unpredictable when using only intuition. There are so many factors involved like the team and there are also some politics involved.
I know someone managed to make a killing on horse race betting using an algorithm but I don't know if someone has already applied that to competitive games like soccer.
Indeed the amount of knowledge that someone has can help him in making good predictions in sports betting but then again, at times luck dominates everything else and all of analysis becomes wrong. Therefore, it is best to not play such games but still if someone enjoys this activity, he must go with the safe way. Never bet more than what you can afford to lose and never bet a lot.
Your knowledge in your favourite sport will definitely help you make better bets but that is not enough, you need to also know about how the casinos create their odds so you can know when you are being offered good odds and bad odds, that way you can use all of that knowledge to pick not only the best team to win but also the best odds, that way when you lose you only lose a small amount of money and when you win you can win as much money from your bets as you possibly can.
