I've been meaning to ask about this for a long time:
For someone who doesn't follow sports but want to bet on them while watching them live, are there some good places to get tips from and is there something i should avoid?
Or do i need just become to be a sports fanatic to get more out of them? Seems like a lot to keep track of as there are ton of different sports to bet on and teams, players, coaches and athletes that keep changing rapidly (at least from my perspective).
My earlier gambling experience has been mainly luck based games (except real life poker that requires some skill), but i've been wanting to move on and tried betting on sports ages ago but thought that i would need more knowlegde for that. Lately i've been wondering if i need that and should just start betting for fun. And bettin on live sports as it seems fun as hell. My choice of sports would start from MMA.
In the long run you likely have more chance of winning money from sport betting than you do from playing at a casino. Every game in a casino is engineered to eventually move all your money into the casinos pocket by basic mathematical odds. At least with sports betting the casino are reduced to taking an educated guess, based on a lot of number crunching of previous statistics on the outcome of the game with a nice buffer built in for them to secure a profit. If you stay away from multi-bets, which is where casinos make most of their profits, then you stand a fair chance of success if you closely follow sport and are able to distinguish profitable bets due to surrounding factors (weather, a good player being out, etc.)
