Make Money On Sports Betting

Make Money On Sports Betting
By Seth Michael Kaufman

Millions of people participate in sports gambling each and every day. The overwhelming consensus opinion is that it is impossible to win money from sports betting. While it is true that it can be extremely difficult to make money on sports betting, it is not impossible.

One comparable is the stock exchange. So many people lose tons and tons of money on the stock exchange, but so many people are millionaires because of it. The same applies in gambling. Every system in our society has inefficiency. If gambling, or any other business were perfectly efficient, then there wouldn't be any reason for anyone to gamble on sports.

If you're currently failing to make a significant profit in sports gambling, the main thing you should try and do is better control your bank account. Let's say you have $100. You're probably wagering between $10 and $25 per bet. Lose a few bets and you're done. To remedy this, never bet more than 1% to 5% of your bankroll. This will allow for sustainable growth over time rather than immediate spikes or dips in your account.

You should also try and analyze your bets extremely thoroughly and give them star ratings, or confidence ratings on a one star to five star scale. A five star bet may be a $5 bet, whereas a two star bet may only be for $1. Assuming you've done your research correctly, your five star bets should allow you to make profit over the one or two star losses that might come.

But you need to make sure you're doing the proper research necessary. This may be an all day activity, figuring a consensus on the game, as well as keeping up with injury reports. If you don't think you can do this, then there are definitely other options. These are sports betting systems, and sport handicapping services.

For example, an NBA betting system may say that when a team loses three straight on the road and are at home their next game, bet the spread. Systems like this often have great success, you just need to find the right system because there are so many scams in this industry. The same goes for sport handicappers. Find the right one, and you can hit on 60% - 65% of your games, but finding a bad one-which is much more likely- and you can lose your whole bank account.

Hopefully each of you can implement something from the article. Now check out my recommendations the best sport handicapping services and sport betting systems, and way more information to help you make sports gambling an investment and to truly get the best chance of profiting.

Betting Strategies 101

In this post I wanted to go over several rules that I follow that has allowed me to be a successful gambler. I have already mentioned some of these somewhere on my site before, but I feel that some are very important and are worth mentioning again.

 

Patience - Very very important factor if you are trying to make a profit in the long run. You should be willing to take a loss, having losing days will be a disappointment but you have to learn to control yourself. Avoid doubling up to make up for your previous losses.

 

Money Management - This is another major factor that a sports bettor planning on being in the business and making money in the long run must achieve. If you are betting an amount that you feel uncomfortable with then you are betting way too much. Every successful gambler needs to come up with some type of a money management system that they can easily sustain. This will let you know how many bets you would have to lose before running out of funds. I personally always set a limit for every wager I place, once set I follow that limit for at least a month. No matter how good a wager might look to me, it doesn't affect how much I'm gonna bet on it once my limit is set.

 

Set A Goal - Unless you are betting for fun, you have to set some type of a goal, so you know what to aim for. I set several goals for myself when gambling which include setting the amount of wagers placed per month to what I expect my net profit for the month to be. I also set a yearly goal for myself that includes my net profit I am shooting for. I don't mind having a losing month, but having a losing year is a total failure and waste of time for me. Overall having a losing year is unacceptable when it comes to gambling to me. I feel I have too much patience, and unless I just have the worst luck one year, I should never have a losing year.

 

Be Comfortable - Meaning before placing your wagers, pick an establishment that you are comfortable with and that doesn't have too many distractions. I almost always go through the same routine whenever I place my wagers. I usually look at several games the night before, think about the games during the day of the event, then place my wager closer to game time just in case of any last minute changes.

 

Betting Under The Influence - This might go hand to hand sometimes but usually never the best idea. Lets you are at a sports bar watching a game, after a few drinks decide to get on your phone and sign in to one of your favorite online sports book and place that wager you were thinking about earlier. Not a good idea at all, and yes I have been guilty of this back during my amateur days. I am much wiser now and know better. Just for the record though, I did win those few wagers I placed being under the influence of alcohol. At any cost, you just want to avoid making decisions under the influence of anything especially when money is involved and if you are serious about making a profit sports gambling in the long run.

 

There are so many strategies that will help every bettor be successful, but the ones I have mentioned the ones I feel are some of the most important. Every sports bettor is different and all will have their own tips and strategies, but for most I think will agree with the ones above.

Mil Bucks @ NY Knicks

Figuring I would probably most likely lose my first wager that I posted earlier, the four teamer. Had to go with a less risky play by taking the Knicks -5, which did not start out smooth, but they ended up finishing strong. This was my third pick of a three team (IF BET) see link below for details http://www.acsportsbooks.com/sportsbetting/101/ifbets.htm Right now I need Memphis to finish strong here.

Event 1:	Sacramento Kings at Phila. 76ers
Play Time:	2013-02-01 19:40
Selection:	Phila. to win
Odds:	-270
Bet Odds:	-270

Event 2:	Washington Wizards at Memphis Grizzlies
