Making sport betting as a hobby

[ktollinche]

If you like math and simulations, try poker.

Would be way faster to learn that than to bet on football.

Poker is 24/7, while football is 17-20 days

I'd try something that offers me a challange!
That being said I'll study hard on soccer,tennis and other sports with the help of some video game simulators!

That is too many things, bro.
You might be able to master one (most likely not, lol)
Just do one.
Maybe tennis then

Soccer is huge and draws worldwide attention but is one of the hardest sprorts to successfully cap. 3 way lines are killers.

video games do not accurately portray real sports or it would be easy to simulate madden each week and win big.

you have to start watching a sport and develop your model as you watch and see the stats you feel have value. try one sport first. watch and learn the game. see how the spread is calculated.

even with all the above, either A wins or B wins. flip a coin.

You can win by consistently finding bets where the bookmaker’s price is wrong relative to the true probability and then betting the right amount for your bankroll. That’s really all it is. Figure that out and you’ll be a winner long term.

The most successful sports bettors don’t know one thing about sports. There are math guys.

Hi,I want to join the sport betting activity because my folks divorced and they didn't give me anything to enjoy in life.My father always beated me and never cared about me and I can barrely live day after day.
I am very good at math,I even studied precalculus and calculus but I don't know how to start.Do you use football managers?How do you find out about teams,skills and stuff?
How much math do I need?
Is it a normal idea if I had suffered from depression and alcoholic problems?

good way to numb yourself . youve come to the right place. it beats alcohol/drugs id say if u can keep the monetary part under control and know what youre doing.

As a simulator for football can I use a football manager video game?
I am really clueless how to start but I do know that You need to learn how each member of the team plays in the field,their stats.
I am really sorry, If You think I offended you with my thread .
I live in Europe,Romania If You wanted to find my homeplace!

this kid may have what it takes. real good in calculus he said

 

[ktollinche]

I wish it occurred to me back in the day to take calculus.

That is the ticket!

Never met a gambler that was not broke

To start this hobby do you need to know how each player has an increased attack stats?I've remember there were cards with stats of each player in soccer but I don't know if this helps!
I know that in soccer you need to focus on strikers!
Can someone give me a guide?
Is it about the stamina of each player?
I've used a video game simulator and that app offered me a list of stats of each player!
Sorry for asking dumb questions but I'm really clueless!

 

[jamesy2422]

you need to know the ins and outs of the sport you are betting in order to bet it. see what you perceive as valuable when it comes to knowledge. then study those statistics and possibly make a model.

As mentioned - your are talking about the most popular sport in the world. Given human nature - everyone wants to back the winner - and they will overpay for pleasure.

Simplify your approach and just simply bet what everyone else isn’t. Look at the bet trackers that show what majority of bets are on - then bet opposite.

In general - take under totals and +1 goal games on then handicap or draw in the 3 way lines. Speaking as someone who enjoys betting soccer in the USA - but knows shit about the sport or players - it’s been a winning strategy overall. This of course assumes 100s of matches - short term anything can and will happen in soccer.

 

[djefferis]

Also - you mentioned knowing the strengths of each player and seeking advantages.

That’s a great skill to have - as a coach. As a sports bettor it’s generally a useless skill for betting on TEAMS. Yes - it can be useful to bet props to an extent - but props are also amongst the most closely monitored bets offered and much lower limits - want to get profiled by a shop fast and limited/shut down - hit a few props at max bet in a row.

There’s a reason squads have training staffs of dozens (or more) coaches. It’s because the ability to assess and scout talent and opposig teams is something a lot of people have. The ability to consistently pick winners and manage a bankroll - that’s a trickier skill set. If you’re good at evaluation - start coaching youth sports and grow your reputation. Plenty of money to be made managing top level talent once you get there.

The ability to become a winning bettor is something some people are just born with. Can it be taught - yes. But the lessons are failures and failure in this business is expensive. As mentioned - follow posters who are successful, emulate their actions and read 5x what you post. You can even learn lessons from JJ here - if you pan through the garbage.
