How to bet wisely

My other specialty, which also brought much money on the table, is basketball games.

I go for no-name matches on purpose here, because this strategy can’t be used on EUROLEAGUE games, and even less on NBA ones.

1) The most important thing is REALLY not to bet on NBA or other “quality” games — let’s find the minor, nameless teams (Just because YOU don’t know their name, it doesn’t mean that they really are nameless!).
The best for this kind of betting are Arabian, African, Korean teams and others like them, but for the best is betting on some U23, U20-rank game. It can even be a women’s team.
I’ve won with this method a thousand times, and I can only remember one failure. The odds are damn great here, you can win fortunes with that, but sure, you have to do this the clever way.
The secret is, that bookmaker calculates the odds for these games pretty poorly, because the teams are less known, and they can’t pay attention to everything either.
They don’t even care really, because there are only a few clever gamblers and the stupid ones bring back their “loss” ten times anyways. The main point here is not to bet before the game starts, because even I don’t know these teams, although it’s good to check on them in advance to see, how the odds look like for these teams.
These bets are the best to be put around the end of the second quarter, when you can already have a basic concept about the whole game. The tactics are quite simple, I wouldn’t even call them tactics.
So, let’s say, the host team (1.10 odds before the game started) wins the first quarter with 15 points and you can also see that they are playing much better. In the second quarter, they dominate again, and they also win with another 10 points.
At this point, they can give quite high odds on the host team to win the second half. I guess it’s a miscalculation at Bet’s, but it’s pretty understandable — who’d care for a South-American championship’s U21-ranked game?!
The point still is, that sometimes I bet on a game like that for 1.70 odds. Needless to say, I was quite a happy camper about it. When the huge-time favourite, at home, beats its opponent for 25 points in the first half, being the attackers for most of the time, then it’s highly probable that they will keep up during the second half too!
The winner of the second half is a safer thing to bet on, because if, god forbid, the third quarter goes to the guest team and they win with 2 points, the host team still has the last quarter to catch up and win this one again!
This is my all-time favourite strategy, I would only bet like this all the time, but it’s a quite time-consuming method, so I only use it a few times.
Usually these games are played late at night, you have to be very aware and sitting almost the whole day in front of your computer to catch one match like this.

2) For the other basketball-scheme, we are also looking for favourites, I could write down almost the same as before:
If someone is a big-time favourite before a game, let’s say, they give a -25 point handicap for them, and we can also see that they dominate on the game, the situation is the same as I sketched it in the part above. They are attacking far more, possessing the ball almost all the time and striking forth, then let’s play handicap and it might turn out quite well.
Bet365 miscalculates the odds and especially the handicaps here brutally as well. The host team beats the goo out of the guests in the first quarter, wins the second with ease too, but the handicaps still barely move.
They might always offer 6-7 points handicaps (like they have 30 points over the opponent after the first half, so Bet gives a 37 points handicap).
If someone beats the opponent with 30 points in two quarters, then they’ll surely make another 8 points advantage during the next 2 quarters.
Needless to say, how awesome odds there are for these games!

That’s all, folks! These are my tactics, which — as you can see — brought me huge profits. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to go all-in at the beginning to make a solid capital, but that only depends on you!
It’s an unbelievable feeling, when you are cool to put on a bet like 400-500 EUR without a flinch. But of course, we all have different goals…
I told many people about these things and of course, there are a lot of skeptics, who think I’m an idiot for doing what I do. They say they’d have jumped out after 500 EUR or so, but you know, that’s also a way to play… 🙂
Everyone have different purposes with their money, their lives, and also, fun itself varies from person to person. I used to chew my nails down during some games, I’ve lost many times, but I can’t even say how much this brought into my life!
There were some major failures, sometimes my tactics failed me, everything seemed to be lost, but however you look at it, if you are in winning at the end of the day, that already worth it! And of course, I AM in winning. 🙂

Long story short, do have the guts to take take a grip on things, YOU are the only one who can change your life! But you always have to keep sports betting as a game, and as a game ONLY! Of course, it’s a fun game to play and you can make good money on it. I have to tell you, I started out of nothing and that’s why losing it all wouldn’t break me down. I’d just return to the nothing I started it from.

Of course, it’s not gonna happen, because I withdrew my money, and starting it over from January on, but I won’t put a fortune back on my account, I’ll start from 1-200 EUR to make you see again, that it is indeed doable.
