My topic is based on those who are majorly into sports betting, we know in this aspect of gambling it is very risky to predict the outcome of any game from both teams to score, over and under, straight win and many more. Most times we bet on the big teams to win and the reverse becomes the result, either the small teams securing the win or ending in a draw.

Straight to the point most people are afraid of compiling big odds and now decide to go for lower odds with huge staking power which is not even guaranteed to give the predicted results. For example, there could be a match between Newcastle VS Tottenham Hotspur and both teams are having 1.5 and 1.3 odds respectively, a gambler may decide to bet only on Tottenham to straight win by only selecting this one game on his slip, what is your take on this kind of gambling, risking bigger money on some low odds with a small potential win and still the possibility of your pick to win is not even certain.

It's also called gambling, everything that is at stake has no certainty. Basically, gamblers have their analysis and instincts regarding the team they will choose.
betting bigger for smaller Odds will not minimize the risk, but in my opinion, it increases the risk. we can bet on other options like both teams to score or first and last goals.
once again it still cannot provide certainty of victory. The odds offered are only estimates based on statistics. and in the field, sometimes the readiness of each team will not always be the same in every match.
