Are you aware of the term value bets? Maybe you know what it is but you just do not know that it is called that. Well anyway, value bets are bets where their odds are a lot higher than the true probability. A value bet is when the odds offered by a bookmaker are higher than the actual likelihood of the outcome happening. This allows you to have an edge over the bookmakers. There are a few things you can do to find value bets. First is to get into smaller leagues. When the market is smaller, there are more room for error or mispriced lines. Make your own statistical observations. Do your own analysis by looking into stats and track record. Do not just depend on the bookmaker. Take into consideration also the public bias because bookmakers might depend on them too much. Sometimes bookmakers adjust lines based on where money is going not really based on true probability. With these in mind, you can score a few consistent payouts. It is not just about choosing the winner but taking advantage of the odds presented.


This is true i think I have done this before but I did it intentionally that's due to hesitation I was in a hurry to place the bet and I mistakenly click on the bet that I never intended to include in my bet slip, I wasn't familiar with the club I tried making Cash out to correct my mistake but the cash out was unavailable in that initial time so I had no option than to let it be. this was in online gamble then I decided to logout because I have already considered myself as a loser, but you won't believe what happened. First I just forgot that I placed a bet earlier so when i remembered that i placed a bet so I have to login my account to see what could possibly be the outcome, so I logged in the account only for me to discover that I won the ticket. Then it was as if I'm dreaming, so this experience I had made me to believe what you just said concerning the bookmakers not being Smart in those leagues which they know that people don't always pick interest in betting from those leagues.
