It is a fact that 95 % of punters are losers.

With the Bookmakers edge it is not easy to beat them.But its not impossible.

 Here are a few useful tips from www.thebettingline.co.uk  if you are serious about winning at Sports Betting and want to become one of the elite 5 % that can beat the Bookies.

 

1) ALWAYS GET THE BEST PRICE - Probably the most important rule on being a successful sports bettor. It doesn't take long to sign up for Bookies accounts. See the links on our Bookies pages, there are some great incentives around for new accounts. When placing a bet you must always ensure you are getting the best possible price available. Over the year, this could make the difference between being a winner or a loser. It sounds obvious, but there are several gamblers out there who might have a favourite Bookmaker that they place all their bets with, often taking the worst price available on a event.

Two good sites for comparing odds are www.oddschecker.com or www.bestbetting.com .

 

2) SPECIALIZE - Its good to specialize in maybe one or two sports. Perhaps a Sport that you enjoy playing or watching. Also lesser known Sports are worth researching. The secret is putting in more time than the odds compilers. They have to price up many different Sporting events so they cant spend hours over each event. If you know more than the Bookmakers about a particular Sport or event you are half way to beating them.

 

3) MONEY MANAGEMENT - A sensible staking plan is always a good idea when placing bets. Its not a good practice to bet more than 20% of your betting bank on any one bet. We, at the betting line like to look at each bet on its merits and give it a value rating of 0-10, 0 being a no bet and 10 being a maximum value bet. We do give a recommended stake for the bets we post on here, but we do appreciate peoples betting banks differ. Never have a bet that is out of your comfort zone.

 

4) INFORMATION - Get as much information you can on an event before placing a bet. With the internet its all at your fingertips. Team news, stats, weather conditions etc. Its worth joining some betting forums too. Betfair have a lively community where like minded bettors can share their views. thebettingforum is another forum that is well worth Joining. You can never get too much information.

 

Happy Betting
