I follow the English Premier League and picked up a win on Bournemouth with good odds of £4.50. I got to thinking that in close match-ups, would it be better to place a bet on my team of choice PLUS a draw in case they don't win where I feel the other team has no chance?
Does anyone share this strategy? What's your suggestions? Poll is open ended. Thanks guys.
The bookies are so designed that any option you chose will have a corresponding odd which increases as the risk increases and vice versa. Consequently, direct wins have higher odds than 3ways.
I prefer direct wins after painstaking analysis of the match; since I play just few matches, 3ways will require I combine many matches to achieve a reasonable odd and this is not what I'm willing to do.
