Does anyone do sport betting?

[Thurman01]

I love to do betting and sometimes i win, any advices, tips?

If you like throwing money away, at least give it to the poor. Pro tip right here

Sports betting is more of an art if you want to win, otherwise it's probability. Not much to say

Yes i know it's pretty hard. I've been doing it for a year or so, in the most case i win but at the end of the day it feels more like a hobby rather making money… i tried 2 betting tip providers or but neither of them were more useful than my own ideas. but i still believe it can work

I think it can only be consequently profitable if you are really infatuated about it... really like the guy in the movie Casino... when you know every small detail about players that could influence their next game, even on the level of their private lives... when you are obsessively calculating odds all day based on freaking encyclopaedias of information and data you already collected... you know, when your whole life is 100% about it

i can't sacrifice my whole life for it but i keep learning how to do it. i have friends who do the same, one of them suggested me to try websites what gives me "pro tips", but none of them worked well. it was only 2 btw.

well then you won't ever have a decent income out of it x) I just explained to you how to do it... industrial scale data collection and probability calculation, there isn't an 1-2-3 howto... the second part I hope is just a joke haha... never trust websites which state they're giving out any type of valuable insider information that could just make more to THEM... just like you'll barely ever see a money making ebook that shares information not being saturated already by the person who is selling it... xD

Yes i know, but i'm trying to fing an easier way probably it doesn't exist but at least i try it. i know about the method, like data collection and i try to calculate but i'm not a professional yet. I didn't mean the second part as a joke, i know the most of them is just a scam, but who knows? if i can find something what really works, then the money what i invested in the other try outs will return quickly. i bought tips in the deepweb too, they were pretty cheap but worked fine. maybe i only had luck

well actually trying to get this type of information on the darkweb seems way more reasonable than on any public websites xD

Decent ways to earn are sure and value betting and bonus hunting
Value betting is the hardest part as you need to collect info, test, losemoney etc etc
Plain bets will get you in minus no matter what you do, the odds are against you

I do about 12 million a month in turnover on sports betting.

The truth is that you won't make it. I can tell already and it will always be a hobby for you.

If you want to profit from sports betting you will need to :
- Learn to code to collect data no one else has
- Spend at least 5 hours every day analyzing data or watching games
- Spend every waking moment trying to work out how to do it better.

You could specialize in one sport. But then you need to bet big to make any real money. Specializing means you know everything about the sport and you have watched every game played every week of the year. You would need to know intricate details and think of angles that other people are not seeing which could be done if you dedicate to one sport. This method probably requires about 10 hours of work a day instead of 5 hours.

I didn't get to 12 million a month in turnover by playing around. I spent thousands of hours collecting data. Even though I do that amount of betting already I have spent a good 7 hours today working through more data to improve my edges. I love to do it. If you don't love it then find what you love and go make money there.

When I first started it was a challenge for myself and I gave myself a $100 limit. I have never lost that $100. To give you some perspective I was spending 2 hours before work looking at data, then working all day in a job then coming home and spending another 7-8 hours looking through data and then got some sleep. I then repeated it again the next day for about 2 years. Now I spend about 1-2 hours a day on most days looking at it unless I am trying to improve the results like I was today. Then its generally a week of about 5-7 hours a day going through billions of lines of data to find the gems which give me my profit.

I do matched betting and can recommend it to anyone who needs a few thousands for startup cash.

 

[Gerald Picko]

Yeah I do. Mainly on cricket. It's pretty fun tbh.. I only do small bets up to $100 but it's worth it.. kinda.

i know matched betting but it's too much work for a little profit, i think to do betting with good odds pays better

Made a good living at this for a while and I'm still involved in the software side of things. Pretty finite for most people though - there's only so much you can scale it.

The truth is this thread won't help you. Sports betting/trading is a zero-sum game. If I have something which works I need you to be doing it worse. My money has to come from somewhere. There are people who do this at a profit but the majority don't' win in the long term

wow it sounds you are a really serious bettor. probably it will never be my main project to make money :/

yes i know, plain bets will never be profitable… i need to find a solution for value betting

 

[TheDemne]

i know matched betting but it's too much work for a little profit, i think to do betting with good odds pays better

I need like 5 minutes for a signup offer and get like 70% of the bonus(100€ bonus means I make 70€ profit in general). I don't think that this is too much work for a little profit

it sounds better than what i heard about it

If done correctly matched betting is risk free profits. Anything else is gambling, irrespective of 'good odds' or not.

My 1 piece of advice; Only play with money you can afford to lose.
