I don't gamble based on odds. I have realized that odds can be misleading and so my picks are based on analysis. If the analysis favours the big odds I select it but if I am skeptical I may double chance the game instead of giving it a straight win but in cases where the analysis favours the smaller odds which is always the case I confidently give the team a straight win without having to double it since the odd is already small and so double chancing the game will product so low or no value at all. This notwithstanding I have realized that analysis is not enough to make a gambler win. At the end, winning is a function of luck. A gambler may spend quality time carrying out an indepth analysis based on available statistics and team news only to still lose based on poor officiating, on field injury or even red card which cannot be foreseen as a gambler. Thus, making selection and hoping factors which will affect the selection does not occur is where luck comes to play.
