How to make money betting on football with minimal risk. Can you make money by betting on sports? Real examples of making money on bets

Do you want to make money on bets and learn all the most important things about this type of business? Then this article is for you! This is Denis Kuderin, business expert of the PAPA HELP project.

I personally know several people for whom sports betting is not a hobby and not a way to increase the degree of excitement when watching a match, but a full-fledged income. More precisely - investments with good returns.

These guys don't go to work, don't try to please their bosses, and don't count the days until vacation because they pay their own wages. I won't say how much profit they have because you just won't believe me. Let me just say that it is several times higher than the average salary in the country, although less predictable.

Stay tuned - lots of interesting things are waiting for you!

Betting is not a lottery. It is not luck that decides here, but cold calculation and self-control

How much do professional players (handicappers) earn on sports betting: an unexpected truth

Friends, I found on the Internet a video from the first channel about making money 3-5 million rubles PER MONTH on sports betting. A young guy from Kazan, Adel Suleimanov, visited the first channel in the program of Alexander Gordon. Starting to work at the age of 12, living in poverty, he became a professional bettor at bookmakers.

Now Adele lives in abundance and helps her family by doing this interesting business:

By the way, this is not the limit in terms of income. Professionals who "do not shine" in the media earn more than 10,000,000 rubles per month!

Below I have compared the traditional business and rates in the table, highlighted their key pros and cons in order to understand what is the best thing to do to make money.

I must say right away that this is my SUBJECTIVE opinion and it may not coincide with yours.

Classic business or sports betting: which is cooler in terms of making money?

Comparison criterion	Traditional business	Earnings on bets
Investment size	Significant(hundreds of thousands and millions of rubles) (+-)	Significant(hundreds of thousands of rubles) for a good profit (+-)
Payback period	Pretty lengthy: from 6 months to 3 years (+-)	From 3 months with the right strategy (+)
Capital loss risk	High. You can quickly lose all your money to zero (-)	High."Playing" you can lower your own and even credit funds (-)
Mobility	Not mobile. Often geographically tied to one place (-)	High mobility. You can bet online from anywhere in the world (+)
Reliability and prospects	Relatively reliable and perspective(with a well-established business) (+-)	Relatively reliable(with the right strategy and well-developed risk management). However, there is a growth limit (+-)

As you can see, in my spreadsheet, stakes seem to be the preferred source of income. But this is not a magic wand and there should be a tendency to this type of activity.

Is it possible to make money on sports betting - the experience of my friend Andrey

A couple of years ago, Andrey earned on one bet, ATTENTION! 6,000,000 rubles.

The rate was long-term, on the championship of the English club in the Premier League of this country. It was difficult to put such an amount in one company and he had to make diversification- spread the amount for several BCs(bookmakers).

The main conditions for making money on bets are discipline, financial independence, flexibility of thinking and the desire to constantly learn. It was these qualities that he called to me handicapper(professional bettor in a bookmaker's office) Andrey, when I asked him what it takes to be successful in betting.

And most importantly - do not treat bets like in a lottery or roulette. Successful sports predictions depend least of all on luck and intuition, which betting fans call "feel".

Intuition will appear when you "boil" in this boiler years 5-7, or even 10 .

Sports betting is not a gold mine. This is a difficult, risky and dangerous undertaking. Going to the office and getting a stable salary is much easier. A handicapper needs nerves of steel (or other organs), a cool head, the ability to "take a punch" like in boxing.

When, after a month of intense mental work, the result is a minus difference in the “income” column, an experienced forecaster does not give up. He knows that real profits are calculated at a distance from 2 months to a year and calmly follows his strategy.

REMEMBER

Understand sports and make profitable bets for money is two big differences .

Even if you know all the players of the Chinese national team by sight, this does not guarantee success.

A good forecast is only half the battle. Second half - proper financial management and understanding of the principle of forming betting odds. Mathematical education and knowledge of probability theory will come in handy here.

To summarize - what you need to make money on bets:

• several hours a day of free time;
• understanding the specifics of the bookmaker's work;
• starting capital (from 1 000 rubles before 1,000,000 rubles — to reduce risks);
• optimal game strategy;
• the ability to think clearly;
• stress tolerance;
• competent financial management;
• desire to learn.

A professional always calculates the degree of risk and does not bet blindly. Moreover, some bettors use the weapons of bookmakers - software for calculating statistics and calculating probabilities.

How much do beginners earn on bets

If you read online reviews of real people about making money on sports events, you will be disappointed. Beginners lose to smithereens and curse bookmakers with bad words.

But do not rush to draw final conclusions.

The fact is that such a concept as "earnings", all the more stable, is not very applicable to the bookmaker's business. Rather, the term is more appropriate here "profit from turnover" (ROI) like in the investment business. Everything here is about the same as on the stock exchange: you invest money and after a while you get (or do not get) a profit.

What indicators are considered successful? Major players believe that the indicator more than 5% per month – undeniable success.

Beginners are unlikely to be able to boast of such a profit.

You can consider yourself a beginner, or you can consider yourself a beginner PROFESSIONAL. How do you like it better?

I can assure you

The first months in bets are just a “shooting point”. It is incorrect and meaningless to judge the return on investment for this period of time. The pros say "distance is everything". And the betting distance is at least a year.

But this does not mean that all newcomers are doomed to fail. You will get a small plus, or at least stay on your own, if you choose a moderate strategy and do not begin to win back in case of losses.

Another condition for success is to choose reliable office operating legally. The fact is that a significant part of the betting shop on the network operates without a license established by Russian law. By cooperating with such companies, you bet at your own peril and risk - you have no guarantee of the return of winnings, and there is nowhere to go in disputable situations.

Why does the bookmaker always have the advantage at a distance? It's simple - math works for him.

Bookies offer bets on thousands of events every day. Even the third football leagues do not escape their all-seeing eye. And for each such event, a coefficient is set - a probability indicator calculated by a computer.

Odds are the cornerstone of betting. If you win, the amount you bet is multiplied by this indicator.

But the trick is that each coefficient has a margin - a kind of Commission , which the office takes for its services. The bookmaker has income for any outcome of the event and acts only as an intermediary between the players who bet "for" and those who bet "against"

Let's say we have an equally probable event with two outcomes. A basketball match in which the objective odds of the teams are 50/50. But you will never see such odds in the offices: in terms of probabilities, the odds will be approximately 47/47 , or even less. Question: where did they go 6% ? Answer: went into the bookmaker's pocket .

This is far from the only, but the most obvious source of beech income. Other methods are more sophisticated - for example, artificially low odds to encourage betting on the opposite outcome .

It is not easy to beat the bookmakers margin. Even if you guess 55% of bets with odds close to 2, this will only allow you to stay on your own. Although it is quite possible to hit the jackpot in one single match. But we are interested in stable, not one-time income.

Beginners with decent sums are the bookmaker's bread and butter. In the following sections, I will explain how players can increase their chances and give an overview of working strategies.

TOP 5 proven ways and strategies to make money on bets - chips and secrets for beginners and experienced players

We are interested in really profitable and reasonable strategies. They are few, but they work. Successful players I've talked to have tried them firsthand.

With any of the strategies below, you can place a bet online through a reliable bookmaker.

There are no bad strategies, there are bad strategies!

Strategy No. 0 "Maximum profit, minimum risk"

It is also called betting arbitrage. In this way, professionals earn up to 100 000 rubles IN A DAY ! Its essence is very simple, read below:

You open three bookmakers: Asian, world and Russian. Compare the quotes of these 3 offices and if the total odds for all possible outcomes imply profit, then bet, if not, do not bet.

On average, the percentage of profitability of such arbitrage transactions is from 1% to 1.5%, if you place a bet before the start of the match, and 3-5% , if you bet during the match.

With an average bet of 20 000 rubles, it will give you profit 1000-1500 rubles from one "hit" of ONE BET. You can make 10-20 of them per match.

Conclusion: a good "arbitrator" can earn 30-100 tr. per day.

But there is one caveat here:

bookmakers know this technology and some "very lucky" players are paid out their money only once when they win. This does not mean that they take the rest for themselves. It’s just that the next time the bookmaker may refuse to place a bet on your site.

Method 1. Game analytics

What is a qualitative match analysis? First of all, this consideration of non-obvious factors. Why not obvious? It's simple - all the obvious factors were taken into account and included in their odds by bookmakers. In their arsenal is the most powerful computer technology worth millions of dollars.

By the premiere, one familiar "private" uses a paid resource, which publishes up-to-date data from the infirmaries of football clubs. If the team's leading scorer kicking leg hurts- it's already reason to doubt the correctness of the set coefficients.

The statistics are relentless: 90-95% BC players lose their money. The vast majority treat betting as fun. Meanwhile, only a competent and complete analysis of the upcoming event greatly increases the chances of success.

Are there any advantages for the average player? Don't panic: yes! The handicapper does not need to analyze all the matches in a row. He selects individual events and only those about which he has collected all the information - both accessible and inaccessible.

Others use personal blogs of players and their pages in social networks. Finding info online is not a problem. The whole point is to interpret it correctly.

Method 2. Forks

But this strategy is more reasonable and not at all utopian. Its essence is extremely simple - you bet on the opposite outcomes of events in different offices in such a way that in any case the bets give a plus.

Are forks working today? Big question...

Just a few years ago, the arbers were flourishing. They used simple programs to track surebets and cashed in on every bet. Now there are fewer and fewer surebets: offices constantly monitor them and quickly eliminate them if they occur.

Surebets often live for several seconds, and players simply do not have time to bet. In addition, such marques are on the black lists of bookmakers. Often their limits are cut or their accounts are blocked altogether.

Method 3. Catching up

In theory, this is a win-win strategy, but extremely dangerous. It is practiced only by confident players with a solid game bank. The bottom line is a progressive increase in the amount of each bet, depending on the outcome of the previous bet.

Simply put, you raise rates until we return the money with interest (doubling the rate). Catching up is based on the player's belief that no series lasts forever. And indeed it is. Another question is whether the player has enough money for the next doubling of the amount.

Fans of progressive strategies should keep in mind the parable about the padishah and the sage.

Remember: on the first chess square the padishah put one grain of rice, on the second - twice as much, on the third - twice more, and so on. Already after the first tens of cells, it became clear that the country's entire grain reserve would not be enough to fulfill the condition of the task.

Method 4. Betting on underestimated events

Strategy Value Betting was once considered a kind of philosopher's stone of players. Everyone knew that in the bookmaker's line there was a "value" - an underestimated event, for which an incorrect coefficient was set. By placing bets on them, the player ended up in the black.

Value bets are usually bets on underdogs (i.e. outsiders) with high odds.

Conditional example

Barcelona plays with Rubin from Kazan. 99% of fans and even bettors are confident in the outcome of the match - "Barca will tear it in their field." In BC, the corresponding coefficient. But the "valuers" calculate the probabilities and calculate that the beeches have incorrectly estimated the outsider's victory. And they bet on Rubin's victory, no matter how wild it looks. As a result, Rubin wins and the payouts are 20 to 1, or even more.

I made these bets myself. and I can confirm that Great Danes win more often than you think.

Method 5. Buying predictions

Be careful: there are a huge number of scammers on the network who trade forecasts. Finding a truly honest and at the same time profitable forecaster is even more difficult than making a competent forecast yourself.

But if you have the money, time and desire, you will definitely find resources that employ decent and professional forecasters. I will not advertise them, except that in personal correspondence I can give a link.

How to bet online - choose a reliable bookmaker

If you have never bet in a bookmaker, this section will guide you in choosing a bookmaker.

Betting via the Internet has become popular in our country for a long time, it is convenient and profitable. You can play right from home.

But let's clarify what criteria a betting company must meet in order to work with it reliably and clearly.

• Firstly, the company must be on the market for several years.
• Secondly, she must have a good image among the players.
• Thirdly, odds on sporting events should be profitable.

I play myself through this this trusted bookmaker. My friends have been working with him for more than three years and during this time there were no complaints.

Answers to frequently asked questions

And now the answers to the most pressing questions of beginners. Be sure to study this section, for sure you are interested in the same topics.

Question 1. Where and how long do you need to study in order to make successful bets? Artem, 27 years old, Pyatigorsk

Alas, there are no educational institutions that teach the basics of playing with a bookmaker. However, at the disposal of each newcomer - terabytes of information on the Internet. First you will read everything, then you will learn to separate the wheat from the chaff.

And yes, you have to keep learning. Bookmakers are developing all the time, and bettors (players) who do not keep up with them go into the red.

Question 2. How much per annum can I earn on bets? (Viktor, 41 years old, Krasnodar)

Return on invested capital during the year (ROI) in 10-25% per annum- This is an indicator of quite successful players, and even then not every year. You will be right if you say that there are more profitable investments - for example, in securities.

Yes, stocks are a more reliable and predictable instrument. But everyone is engaged in what the soul lies in - some stock trading, others - sports betting.

Question 3. What types of bets are the most profitable? Lyudmila, 28 years old, Moscow

The answer is - thoughtful. And those that correspond to the competent financial strategy of the player.

There is such a thing as risk management or money management - the correct management of investors' capital. The basic principles of which are: do not "invest" all the money in one sporting event: split the amount for betting into parts . Also, don't get euphoric trying to earn even more quickly if you win a good amount.

The more money you have, the less risk you can take (lose at a time).

Question 4. Are there win-win sports betting strategies? Ivan, 32 years old, Novosibirsk

I partially answered this question in one of the previous sections. If such strategies really worked in full force, bookmakers would have gone bankrupt long ago.

However, there are strategies that can minimize the risk of loss. But everything in this life is interconnected and in rates too: the more you risk, the more you earn. But if your prediction turned out to be wrong, get ready to lose a lot.

There are no win-win strategies and guaranteed methods of making money on bets!

Question 5. A friend offers me to become his investor, to give 500,000 rubles to the management for “scrolling” on rates. Is it worth it? Dmitry, 36 years old, Omsk

First, study its profitability indicators, strategy. It will not be superfluous to ask for guarantees (deposit) in case of loss of your money. Take an interest in the number of bets already made and the distance.

If he earns on bets for more than 2 years, then you can trust him with money and then with great care. I remind you that positive results can be summed up no earlier than one year from the moment the player begins to engage in this activity.

Question 6. Is it possible to make money on bets online or is it a complete scam on the Internet? Maxim, 29 years old, Serpukhov

Realistically, if you get into the 5% of profitable players. This is not a matter of luck, but a matter of painstaking and hard work. Now many people place bets via the Internet, as it is convenient.

But here it is important to choose a proven bookmaker and work with him for a long time.

Question 7. How and on what do bookmakers make money? Victor, 24 years old, Vladivostok

On the margin (commission) from each bet and manipulating the opinion of the players. In a general sense, a handicapper's win is a betting company's loss and vice versa.

But your main opponent is not the bookmaker, but you yourself. More precisely, your personal qualities and emotions, which are not easy to cope with. Greed, fear, hope and other "helpers" can get in your way, even if a good strategy is chosen. Work on yourself!

Things to remember for beginner handicappers:

1. Play according to a proven strategy, use the rules of money management.
2. Do not blindly trust public opinion.
3. Do not bet based on intuition.
4. Consider odds when placing bets.
5. Engage in self-education and development of volitional qualities.
6. Work in a narrow niche, do not spray.
7. Bet in reliable offices with a legal status.

And now some more strategic advice from betting expert Adel Suleymanov:

Instead of a conclusion

All successful players have their own strategy. Making predictions on a whim and choosing the first match that comes across is not an option. Betting requires discipline. But even more discipline is needed in the head of the player.

If you want to bet just for the thrill and the thrill, then high-risk investments are not for you. Gambling addiction (ludomania) is a serious disease that needs to be treated.

For most people, sports betting is entertainment or a way to get an adrenaline rush, but there are also professionals for whom this is the main business and even a way of life. These guys earn tens of thousands of dollars a month and at the same time they do not have a bunch of employees and other "hemorrhoids" inherent in the classic business.

Everyone dreams of building their own financial pyramid, based on vital interests, but fate does not always present us with such gifts. This article describes how to make your dream come true, earn money without leaving your home. One of the many ways to make money is to generate income through betting. And it doesn’t matter what hobbies it is: sports, politics or even computer games. You can literally make money on everything. So, let's take a closer look at making money at bookmakers.

Where can you bet

Bets are made in two ways:

• sweepstakes;
• bookmaker's office.

The difference between a betting shop and a bookmaker

What is a tote

A totalizator is such a system that accepts bets on certain events occurring at a particular point in time. All the bets of the players form a common treasury of the cash prize, from which the amount is paid to the winners. Here, participants compete with each other, and not with a sweepstakes, which, in turn, takes interest for services.

For example: there are 14 sporting events (hockey). It is required to guess the results of the matches (success of the first team, draw, success of the second team). Winners are received by those participants who guessed at least 9 events.

How to make money betting online

Bookmaker's office

A bookmaker is a resource that accepts bets on events (for example, sports games) and pays out winnings. The player knows in advance the amount of payments in case of victory, since the office sets the coefficients that multiply the player's bet. This is the main difference between a totalizator and a bookmaker's office (the person participating in the totalizator does not know the approximate winnings).

Example: a football match between a clear favorite and an outsider. The coefficient for the favorite is 1.4, and for the outsider 8.4. If a player bets 100 rubles on the favorite and wins, then, accordingly, the amount of payments will be 140 rubles. From here you can calculate the amount of winnings, in case of success of the outsider team.

How to make an online bet on games on the Internet

First you need to choose a bookmaker or sweepstakes based on the prestige and feedback about them. Next, register and log in. Also, in order to receive winnings, the player needs to create his own online wallet. For this, such well-known systems as , or. In addition, you can place a bet via SMS-request.

An integral part is "professional betting". In order to increase the chance to win a large amount of money, you need not only to know who is the favorite and who is the outsider, you also need to track the statistics of sports events, read analytical articles, watch matches of specific teams, and based on all that has been said, develop your betting strategies.

Earnings on bets in bookmakers

We place bets. Training

The Internet is an inexhaustible resource from which you can extract a lot of useful information. Find everything about the right sports teams or athletes. Also look for bookmakers, cooperation with which will be promising and productive.

Look for as many offices as possible and create accounts on each of them. This will allow you to play on betting surebets (the Fork strategy will be discussed below).

Information on good sports forums is very useful, since it is there that you can get a lot of useful information about players and the likelihood of them winning in one or another branch of sports.

Professional players often keep a diary. In it, they mark the places where they themselves met betting surebets, and also record the results of the games. If you study such a diary in detail, you can easily find similar game situations that can play into your hands.

Before you go big, try doing sports betting for yourself. Search for sure bets, try guessing, and then see if the person you were counting on won. Such experience will allow you to learn to analyze games more accurately, and this will only positively affect your own betting game. (See about making money on games on the Internet without investments).

Choosing a bookmaker

Most trusted bookmakers have their own websites, which clearly describe how to place bets. Therefore, even if there is a real office near you, it is better to give preference to an Internet resource anyway. It is much more convenient even because you don't have to go to the bookmaker's office to win. To withdraw funds, it will be enough just to indicate the bank account details or WebMoney wallet number.

If you are in doubt about which online bookmaker is best to use, then here are the top three for you:

1. LeonBETS- an office with a lot of positive reviews. This is due to the fact that controversial situations are resolved in favor of the player, and not vice versa. Also, the withdrawal of funds is carried out quite quickly - within 2-3 hours. In general, this bookmaker is friendly and efficient.
2. Booker.ru features a simple and accessible interface. A huge plus is the presence of a large number of matches on which you can bet. Well, the main drawback is that the withdrawal of funds takes more than a week.
3. Olimpbet withdraws funds very quickly, but the disadvantage is that there are much fewer betting lines.

Methods and strategies for making money on bets on the Internet

There are universal sports betting strategies. These include:

• Fork strategy;
• bet on clear favorites;
• strategy "Dogon";
• Express rates

Bookmaker fork

The main essence of this betting strategy is that the player needs to find at least two successful bookmakers. Then choose a match in which the odds for the teams will be approximately equal. Next, you need to bet on the victory of the first team in one of these offices, and in the second office, bet on the victory of the second team and wait for the result.

Example of a betting surebet

Let's imagine that the match is between two teams - Brazil and Serbia. Each match has its own betting odds, and, in fact, the amount of your earnings directly depends on them.

In order to use a betting surebet, find a match where the odds for each of the teams will be greater than 2 (for example, 2.5 for Brazil and 2.7 for Serbia). By betting 100 rubles on Brazil, you will receive 250 rubles if you win, and by betting 100 rubles on Serbia, you will receive 270 rubles, respectively.

Then do the following: go to two different bookmakers from your accounts. On one site, bet 100 rubles on Brazil, and on the second - 100 rubles on Serbia. In general, you will bet 200 rubles. If Brazil wins, you will receive 250 rubles (50 rubles of net profit). If Serbia wins, then you will earn 270 rubles (70 rubles of net profit). The more you bet, the more you win. But do not forget that you need to find exactly such a match, where the odds of both teams would be higher than 2.

Pros and Cons of the Fork Betting Strategy

A bookmaker surebet is, of course, stability. But like everywhere, it has its downsides. For example, in order to earn good money, you will need a serious start-up capital, which will need to be dispersed among several bookmakers. Also, this way of earning requires you to closely monitor fluctuations in odds, which are very unstable and can change even during the game.

Surebets may appear for just a couple of minutes, and if you did not have time to make a successful bet, then alas.

In any case, success is guaranteed by 90 percent. Many will ask the question why not one hundred percent. There are situations when games are drawn. But such cases are rare, so you should not be upset.

Bet on clear favorites

Another almost win-win way is to bet on clear favorites.

Why bet on a clear favorite if the odds on it are low? The answer is simple: if you bet on several matches in which there are clear favorites, then the coefficient becomes higher accordingly. Hence the gain.

Strategy "Catch-up"

The simplest and most effective strategy is the so-called "Dogon"

The essence of this sports betting strategy is very simple. To do this, the player needs to have a certain capital in his wallet. And then you need to bet on the same result constantly, but taking into account the increase in the subsequent rate by two or more times.

You should also take into account the odds in this betting strategy. The approximate coefficient should be equal to two. Using this strategy, constant profit is guaranteed.

Express rates

The secret of this method is that you bet on the teams with the lowest odds. Only if you make these bets separately, then the earnings will be small.

For example, if you have chosen teams with odds of 1.1, 1.5, 1.7 and bet 100 rubles on each of them separately, then in the end your winnings will be: 10 + 50 + 70 = 130 rubles. If you make an express bet on 3 matches at once, then the total odds will be 1.1 x 1.5 x 1.7 = 2.805, and the profit from 300 rubles will be: 300 x 2.805 - 300 = 541.5 rubles.

Minus express bets - if at least one of the three bets has not played, you lose all profits.

The subtleties of making money on sports betting

For some reason, many attribute earnings on sports betting to a number of gambling, most likely the stereotype is to blame. Everyone understands that gambling will never be safe, because that's what they are gambling for.

But do not confuse games in online bookmakers with casinos. These are fundamentally different things because you cannot predict the game of roulette, but you can bet.

Luck is undoubtedly a good companion, but when making a bet, you also have the opportunity to analyze, calculate the risks and the possible outcome. With such a rational approach, the chance that your bet will play is very high.

For some specialists, earning on sports betting resembles earning on Forex.(Read also - What is it and is it possible). Maybe they are right about something, but you must admit that it is much easier to make money on sports than on multi-way currency frauds that are not understandable to an ordinary person.

Undoubtedly, it will be much easier for you to earn money if you are fond of sports and understand it a little, but even without such knowledge, you can still get money if you learn to look for the so-called betting surebets.

1. For very gambling people, earning on bets is not recommended, since the loss of invested money in this case is inevitable. Excitement is the main reason for all failures in the analysis of events.
2. If you do not want to lose all your money at once, then never play all-in (do not bet on a large amount of money for you), otherwise there is a risk of being left with nothing. There are times when you are lucky, but sooner or later you will lose everything.
3. To start making money on bookmakers, allocate an amount of money that will not hit your own pocket and will not affect the overall picture of your financial condition. This money should not be a pity to lose! In the beginning, bet on small money, if everything goes well in your favor, then you can increase the size of the bets.
4. Develop your sports betting strategies. Using a long-term game strategy, since bookmakers usually give quite high odds for such events. It is also important, when choosing your strategy, to proceed from your personal financial budget. Long-term sports betting is less popular than regular betting, but it can become very lucrative.

These simple but important rules must be remembered and followed by anyone who decides to start making money on bets.

Always remember that it is impossible to beat a bookmaker, as the outcome of certain events is calculated on the probability of their execution. The bookmaker has no excitement, which is extremely rare for a novice player, and works for the long term.

Conclusion

Due to the presence of analogues of real bookmakers on the Internet, it becomes much easier and easier to make money. Internet betting is incredibly convenient, but you will never make a profit if you are guided by the likes of teams or players.

Remember that betting is a kind of investment, not a hobby, you can support your favorite team at home on the couch without loss to your wallet. It is clear that an investment is a certain risk, but after reading this article, you can minimize it.

If you correctly use the above information about earning income from bets, you can forever forget about the constant torment in everyday work for pennies and creating your own budget!

How to make money on bets? If you are good at tennis, football, volleyball, basketball, biathlon or other sports, this will be an advantage.

Additionally, you will have to master the classic pre-match analysis, study financial strategies, understand the psychology of betting and gambling, look at the tactics of successful transactions, and find a normal bookmaker. Do not think that in 2 days you can turn from a plumber / electrician / manager into a professional capper / better who receives 20,000 rubles a week.

• Step #1. Decide on the game bank. With a low-risk strategy, you will earn 1-15% of the deposit per month. If you throw in 1,000 rubles, then the net profit will be at the level of 150 rubles / month. When using a high-risk strategy, you can get 100%, 300% from the bank, but you can also “merge” very quickly.
• Step #2. We choose bookmakers and study the rules. Since 2007, 1xbet (Netherlands, Curaçao) has been operating, Marathon (Curaçao) offers favorable conditions, you can open an account in William Hill (Great Britain) or Bwin (Austria). The only problem is that bookmakers with foreign licenses are banned in Russia. When registering in the legal “1xstavka” or “League of Stakes”, you will have to go through identification with the TsUPIS + pay 13% of personal income tax from profits.
• Step #3. Compare coefficients. Marathon (Curaçao), William Hill and 1xbet have the same line, the odds differ insignificantly. But there are situations when in one bookmaker for the victory of team No. 1 they offer odds of 1.92, and in another - 2.12. If we bet 1,000 rubles, then in the first case we get 1,920, and in the second - 2,120. The difference is 200 rubles!
• Step number 4. We use strategies and tactics. There are more than 100 of them on the Internet. There are free and paid ones. If you are offered to earn millions without investments and without risks , think about it. Perhaps this is a scam from the next "guru".

All strategies are conditionally divided into 3 groups: gaming, financial and mixed.

Gaming	Financial	Mixed (combined)
Used to analyze events and bet on them.	Necessary to control the deposit and eliminate the risk in the style: "All to zero!".	The size of the bet is determined depending on how the previous ones “entered”. Combine financial analysis and sports predictions
Classic pre-match analysis.	Flat.	Dogon.
Bookmaker fork.	Fixed income.	Martingale.
A bet on underestimated events (Value betting, "overweight", "value betting").	Kelly criterion.
Bet on clear favorites or outsiders.	% of the bank.
Dogon (classic or in quarters).

To use strategies, you must know the types of bets and markets (markets). In BC you can offer:

• Ordinaries (single). Profit is defined as the derivative of the bet amount by the odds. For example, 1,000 * 3.33 = 3,330 rubles, of which 2,330 is net profit.
• Express. How can I find out the results from them? The odds of 2 or more outcomes are multiplied by each other and multiplied by the bet amount. For example, 3.33 * 2.00 * 4.63 * 1,000 = 30.8358 * 1,000 = 30,835.8. If at least 1 outcome fails, we lose.
• Systems. They are a set of accumulators, they can look like 3/5, 2/6, 2/8. If 1 express loses, the system can still close in plus.
• Antiexpresses. They differ in coefficients of 1.01, 1.09, 1.10, 1.20 and no more. To win, you need to make an express with losing outcomes.

On the line and in live there are totals, time / matches, exact scores, odds (they are also handicaps), double chances, bets on the winner.

How much can you earn from sports betting?

Screenshots and photos of checks for 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, 70,000 and even 170,000 are posted on the Internet! Beginners' eyes light up: it seems that you can press buttons and get the average salary in the region without doing anything. But you need to come down from heaven to earth: there is no dizzying profit. If you need a quick income without investments and without risks , will have to look for other options. Income depends on:

• the size of the deposit;
• bet amount per 1 outcome;
• strategies and tactics;
• analysis skills.

Let's say we bet 5-7% of the bank, and the average bet is 30,000 rubles. With a coefficient of 1.50, you can get 15,000 rubles net. But this is under an optimistic scenario. Everyone has “black bars”, unprofitable rates and unsuccessful forecasts, so we recommend setting an average monthly return of no more than 30%.

We do not take into account isolated cases when a person puts 50 rubles on a sweepstakes and receives 1 000 000 . There are big wins, but it's a big win. It is important for us to get a profit in the medium or long term, and not "wait for the weather by the sea."

In general, the only way to make a profit without risks is to become the owner of a bookmaker. You may want to (if suddenly) open your own bookmaker, so you need to get acquainted with the basic profitability algorithms.

BC is created for profit and earnings. The concept of "margin" is used - that% that the bookmaker's office will earn, regardless of whether the player wins or loses. To make it easier, let's explain with an example. Let's say we have a Dynamo-CSKA match. Analysts calculated the probability of this or that outcome, and on the basis of this, they allegedly set the coefficients in the line.

Option	Bookmaker odds	Estimated probability of the outcome occurring (1/coefficient)
Victory "Dynamo"	1,96	51%
CSKA victory	5,83	17%
Draw	2,32	43%

If the bookmaker worked at zero, then when adding up the probabilities, we would get 100%. But in our case, 51% + 17% + 43% = 111%. This means that the bookmaker set a margin of 11% for the match! This is a lot. In Pinnacle, 1xbet or Marathon, the margin is at the level of 1.5-7% (depending on the event, sport, number of bets), so the odds are higher than in other bookmakers.

When choosing, evaluate not only the coefficients, but also work experience, reputation, the presence / absence of sports and entertainment. There are more than 80 of them in the rules of BC 1xbet, and about 30 in Zenit. In foreign bookmakers you will be offered not only sports betting, but also slots, games, casinos, sweepstakes. Do not get carried away with gambling "buns"!

What sport to choose?

The one you understand. If you have round eyes from the words "red cards", "corners", "goal", then you do not need to mess with football. If you have no idea about headshots, frags, towers, spades, towers, then you don’t need to meddle in eSports.

There is one more feature. For rare sports and rare outcomes, the bookmaker increases the margin and lowers the odds. For example, let's take the same Pinnacle, which operates in the United States. The information is based on the generally accepted odds of American bookmakers for the NFL, College Football league, NBA, MLB.

Knowing the odds, you can estimate the profit for individual outcomes and sports.

Description of betting strategies

On the Internet, you are offered profitable strategies, they promise a pass rate of 90-100%. On separate forums they sell tactics for 15,000, 20,000 or 30,000 rubles! Do not buy:

1. Strategies with 100% passability guarantee.
2. "Agreements" (fixed matches).
3. Forecasts from dubious personalities.

If you are a beginner, it is better to look at free materials and test them on a demo account. True, bookmakers that have guest accounts can be counted on the fingers of one hand (Betsity, Winline).

Dogon

Dogon came from the casino, where it was actively used for betting on red/black. The bottom line is that if you lose, you increase the bet amount by 2 times. The strategy is considered one of the easiest to understand, but requires:

• large bank;
• serious endurance.

Let's take an example to make it clear. We have a bank for 100,000 rubles, so we can easily afford 1,000 rubles for 1 transaction. Let's say we chose an outcome with a coefficient of 3.00.

Stake amount	Coefficient	Result	Calculation
1 000	3,00	losing	— 1 000
2 000	3,00	losing	— 3 000
4 000	3,00	losing	— 7 000
8 000	3,00	losing	— 15 000
16 000	3,00	win	(16,000 * 3.00) - 15,000 - 16,000 = 17,000 net profit.

5 catch-up secrets:

• Odds must be greater than 2.00 (this is the reason bookmaker clients often choose a draw).
• The risk of losing is high (you can spend money in your account on 9 losing bets without waiting for a profitable bet).
• You need to know the BC limits (for example, you cannot bet 29,978, because the BC has set the bar at 25,000 for 1 trade).
• Clients often “flirt” and turn into gambling addicts (have time to stop in time).
• Bets are made on any sports (tennis, football, basketball, volleyball, hockey).

There are “Goal scored in intervals by catch-up for football”, “Double catch-up”, “Even/odd catch-up”, “Catch-up in quarters in basketball”.

Classic pre-match analysis. What are 7 factors to consider?

The bottom line is that you analyze 10+ parameters that directly or indirectly affect the results of the match. Based on this, bet P1, X or P2.

• Recent performances. They show the form of the team / player, the presence / absence of losing streaks.
• Tournament position. It's one thing when a team fights to advance further, but it's quite another if it participates in a friendly match.
• Personal meetings. There are teams that have been "butting" with an equal score for years. Or one loses another for 5 years in a row.
• Home/away matches. We collect statistics on them and see that the teams feel confident at home, but they can lose away.
• Serious injuries and disqualifications. Clients who bet on women's tennis try to calculate even days of the menstrual cycle of athletes!
• Emotional condition. There are situations when teams do not have time to "recover" after an offensive defeat. There are also cases when a motivated outsider wins.
• Weather. Some teams survive the heat better, while others play "goes" in the cold and rain.

Classic pre-match analysis is something without which there are no professional forecasts and sports betting. If you have not yet mastered it, you will have to study.

Bookmaker surebet (arbitrage rate). How to “arb” correctly so that you don’t get banned?

The only risk-free betting strategy as you bet on opposite outcomes at different bookmakers. You will receive profit regardless of how the meeting ended.

The only problem is that the betting shops detect "arborers" and ban them. Clause 2.35 of the rules of BC 1xbet contains a similar prohibition (with the threat of closing the account and writing off profits on it). Pinnacle is considered to be almost the only bookmaker that welcomes arbitrage bets. This is stated directly on her website.

It is impossible to find outcomes on your own. You will either have to buy the program or take a paid subscription. To find out if there is a fork, use the formula:

B = 1/K1 + 1/K2 + 1/K3.

Profitability in% is calculated according to the algorithm 100 - (B * 100).

For example, we have the Italian Championship. Serie A, Benevento-Fiorentina match. We went to 2 bookmakers to evaluate the odds.

• "1xbet". Odds on P1 - 1,70 , coefficient on P2 - 3.9.
• Pinnacle. Kef on P1 - 3.8, odds on P2 - 3,00 .

We have a fork! Let us decide to bet 1,000 rubles. In this case, we launch the calculator and see what the amount is for 1 outcome. You can't do without software: you will go crazy while calculating the profitability on each transaction.

Bets can be placed not only on P1 and P2. You can use opposite total over 2.5 and total under 2.5; handicap (1) +4 and handicap (1) -4 and others.

But be careful because the bookmakers are watching the arbers. You can be recognized by fractional amounts like 765.034 or 1,000.92 or 2,939.3733; according to certain outcomes, according to the time of betting.

Playing in live mode. What is it and is there real money here?

Live (live, life, live) - events that have already begun and are going on right now. For example, you are watching the Fiorentina-Udinese match live. In the second, third or fifth minute, you can bet on the score in the 1st half, the score in the 2nd half or the results of the meeting.

Live mode is beneficial in that you can see the state of the teams, the alignment of forces. According to them, it is already possible to draw a conclusion about the possible results of the meeting. The only problem is that the odds in live are lower than in prematch.

Bet on underestimated events. How to find them and what to do?

You can come across other names: "Value betting", "Value betting", "Value betting". You find events whose outcome was incorrectly predicted by the bookmaker. In search of such outcomes, the sites of forecasters, forumbetters, and your own analysis will help you. You want meetings where the odds are higher than the actual probability of the outcome.

To make it easier, let's look at an example. We have a meeting "Magdalena Rybarikova - Richelle Hogenkamp". In 1xbet, Rybarikova is the favorite, because she is offered 1.15. The probability of winning calculated by the bookmaker is 86.96%.

Hogenkamp is an outsider, so the athlete has a coefficient of 6.05. Accordingly, the bookmaker estimates the probability of winning at 16.53%.

We are firmly convinced that Richelle will win, because Rybarikova dislocated her arm the other day (and will quickly give up in the meeting). We bet with a coefficient of 6.05 and earn money.

To make it easier for you, there is a formula:

V*(K-1)*D - (1-V)*D

• B - probability (from 0 to 1).
• K is the odds of the bookmaker's office.
• D is the money you bet.

Let's say we threw 1,000 rubles on Richelle Hogenkamp. Plugging in the numbers, we get:

0,1653 * (6,05 – 1) * 1 000 – (1 — 0,1653) * 1 000 = 0,1653 * 5,05 * 1 000 – 0,8347 * 1 000 = 834,7 – 834,7 = 0.

What does it mean? The mathematical expectation of your average profit with a probability of 16.53% is zero. You must be 100% sure that the chances of an underdog winning are much higher.

Think you'll go crazy plugging in values ​​and calculating probabilities? Calmly! Calculators are used to calculate value bets. For example, we entered a coefficient equal to 3.48. Let's say we estimate the probability at 58%. The system indicates the value 1.7399999999999997 and confirms that our trade is profitable. Will you try the method in action?

Bet on clear favorites. Where to find it and how to use it?

The essence is simple: you find matches with clear favorites and outsiders. The authors of the strategy recommend it to beginners, because supposedly the risks are minimal. But in fact, everything is not so simple.

1. The office puts reduced odds on the favorite, so normal profits do not shine for you.
2. The risks of losing still remain.

To win the favorite, you are offered 1.09 or 1.08, or 1.1, or 1.2, or 1.07. If you bet 1,000 rubles, you will receive 1,000 * 1.07 = 1,070. Net profit - 70 rubles!

For example :

• Greece - Gibraltar. Qualifying matches for the World Championship. Europe". On P1 there is a ridiculous coefficient of 1.001.
• "France - Belarus". Qualifying matches for the World Championship. Europe". On P1 we are offered 1.04.
• Uruguay-Bolivia. Qualifying matches for the World Championship. South America". P1 from 1.11.
• Indiana Pacers - Maccabi Haifa. NBA. Pre-season matches (with OT)." On P1 we have 1.02.

It would be possible to make an express from "low-risk outcomes". But if at least 1 outcome is not justified, we will lose. By the way, let's talk about express trains and whether it will be possible to make a million on them.

Express rates. How to choose outcomes for "locomotives"?

The bottom line is that you throw in a coupon from 2 outcomes, the coefficients between which are multiplied. The winning amount is defined as:

odds #1 * odds #2 * odds #3 * odds #4 * odds ## * bet amount.

If at least 1 of the outcomes is not justified, We are losing! Professional bettors recommend adding no more than 2-3 outcomes to a coupon. Otherwise, you expose yourself to increased risks.

For example, there are 5 outcomes on the line that can be added to the coupon.

• NBA. Pre-season matches (with OT)." Denver Nuggets - Oklahoma City Thunder. We bet on P1 with a coefficient of 1.93.
• NBA. Pre-season matches (with OT)." Cleveland Cavaliers - Chicago Bulls. Choose total 206.5 B
• with odds of 1.95.
• NHL. Carolina Hurricanes - Columbus Blue Jackets. We have a total of 5.5 B, the coefficient is 2.04.
• Qualifying matches for the World Championship. Europe". "Estonia - Bosnia and Herzegovina". Double chance 2X with odds of 1.168.
• Qualifying matches for the World Championship. Europe". Hungary-Faroe Islands. Individual total 1 2 M, the coefficient of which is 1.89.

In the "Bet type" field, specify "Express". The system automatically calculates the final odds for us. in

16.948. If we put 1,000 rubles, then we get 1,000 * 16.948 = 16,948 rubles. Reviews about "steam locomotives" are different. If you have just started betting on sports, choose the classic singles.

Internet betting specifics

Bookmakers that operate in the Internet space receive a license in offshore zones. Because of this, they are banned in some countries. For example, only legal betting shops are allowed in Russia, including 1xStavka and Liga Stavok. To access foreign bookmakers, you will have to look for mirrors, special programs and applications. You need to choose a reliable bookmaker whose website will work stably.

• Keep yourself in control, do not slide into "ludomania". 1 loss does not mean that you urgently need to win back and raise the stakes. The main thing is long-term profit.
• Remember that betting strategies there is no risk. There are only those that minimize losses and avoid unpleasant situations. At 100% there were no "passing through" and no.
• Throw in the BC the money that you do not mind losing. Otherwise, you will be shaking over every penny, afraid to make a deal.
• Control your finances . 1 bet should not take more than 5% of the deposit.

Use strategies, keep track of the deposit, learn new things and take losses calmly. We wish you success and profit!

Today you will learn how to make money on sports betting, what ways and strategies of earning really work, and how to start a beginner to earn his first money.

Hello dear readers. Congratulations - you found exactly what you were looking for! My name is Denis Kuderin, I am a player and expert of the online business magazine "HeaterBober.

Today I will tell you all I know about the recently popular direction of generating income - making money on bets!

Permanent earnings on bookmaker bets is a very real prospect that does not require special financial investments. There are only a few conditions needed to get started: desire, free time and a little patience.

So, let's find out how you can make money on bets, having zero experience in this business!

1. Earnings on bets - how much can a beginner really earn

Newbies often ask: “Is it possible to make money on bets and how much do ordinary people earn on this?”

Earning on bets is a high-risk investment, but this method of financial investment can bring much more profit than, say, a regular bank deposit. As for the risk, it is present in any operations related to finance.

Hence the first and largely defining betting rule for beginners: it’s worth playing at a bookmaker’s office only for free money - that is, those that you can spend without risk to your own well-being.

You should not play with money borrowed or from the general family budget.

However, it’s also not worth starting with a “little thing” game either: in order to bet according to the strategy and count on at least a theoretical profit, the bankroll (the initial size of the game bank) must allow you to make at least 50 bets equal in amount.

Let's try to figure out how to make money on bets, if not constant, then at least periodically. How to make a bookmaker a source of income?

There are professional handicappers (people for whom betting is a full-time job). They are engaged in sports analytics and are well versed in mathematical aspects. Becoming a professional is not easy: first we need to understand how a bookmaker works and master the main rules of sports forecasting.

So, to start betting, the following conditions are necessary:

• Permanent access to the Internet;
• Having several hours of free time every day;
• Mindfulness and the ability to control your emotions (this is one of the most important points);
• Initial capital (bankroll);
• Interest in any sport.

Usually beginners choose football, hockey or basketball. According to professionals, tennis is the most profitable for predicting, but if this sport is not to your liking, then you can start betting on football - this is the most popular sport in the whole world (except for the USA).

The real amount that a beginner can earn with minimal investment is 10% of the bank per month.

Of course, if you use risky strategies, you can actually earn all 50%, but then the probability of a complete drain of the bank inevitably increases.

Believe me, 10% is quite a decent figure, but you can achieve stability only if you follow certain rules and approach the business of sports forecasting soberly and rationally.

2. How bookmakers work

As practice shows, people of different ages try to make money on rates - from university students to pensioners. All these people are united by a love for sports - mainly in the status of fans. Why not make interest in sports competitions a source of permanent income?

Bookmakers (BC) daily lay out hundreds of different offers for us, from which we have the right to choose any. The advantage of the player lies in his right to choose any bet. Ideally, each player should only place a bet that is close to 100% certainty.

However, in practice, most bets are made thoughtlessly, in addition, a significant part of all bookmaker customers are amateurs who bet for their own pleasure.

You can approach sports betting from this point of view: bookmakers provide us with the opportunity to take risks and add adrenaline. And if with the money we win we still sometimes manage to buy flowers for our wife, and ice cream for our children, this is already wonderful.

But if you are reading this text, then your goal is not only to have fun, but also to get a stable profit over a long distance. To do this, the approach to betting must be strategic: playing for luck is not safe for capital.

A bookmaker's office, in essence, is an intermediary that takes a certain percentage for its services.

This percentage is called the margin - it is precisely thanks to the margin that the probability of an outcome in percent for equally probable events offered by the bookmaker will not be 50/50, but, say, 47/47.

Where did the 6 percent go, you ask? The answer is that they went to the bookmaker for intermediary services. This is not yet the main source of income for the bookmaker.

Offices also make a profit by adjusting the coefficient according to public opinion and financial flows. In other words, the bookmaker knows where the average player will put money and artificially lowers the probability of this outcome, expressed in odds.

3. Step-by-step instructions for beginners on making money on bets

The system in sports betting is half the success.

For those who have never made bets in a bookmaker, it will not be superfluous to read the step-by-step instructions:

1. First you need to carefully read the rules of the bookmaker, understand the basic terms and concepts from the world of betting.
2. Then you need to register with the bookmaker, create an electronic wallet (WebMoney, Neteller, YandexMoney) if you don't have one yet.
3. The next step: replenishment of the deposit - you place a certain amount on your account in the BC.
4. Choose events and place a bet.
5. Some advise to save all coupons - won and lost - in electronic form (this will protect the player from disputes in the future).

The main problem of playing via the Internet is the effect of dragging players in and turning them into gamblers. Making bets via the Internet is very simple: just make a few clicks, but at the same time, large amounts can be transferred from your pocket to the bookmaker's account.

Tip: do not keep too large amounts of money in the account and withdraw profits more often, if any.

4. Strategies for making money on bets

There are dozens of strategies that allow you to make money at a bookmaker. But it will be enough for a beginner to get acquainted with the most reliable and profitable of them.

It should be understood that there are no win-win strategies, otherwise all offices would have been ruined long ago: there is only an opportunity to significantly increase the likelihood of making long-term profits by placing bets according to a certain scheme.

Gaming strategies

The most popular game strategies are:

• Bet on underestimated events (Value Betting);
• Betting surebets (arbitrage rates);
• Classic pre-match analysis;
• Playing in live mode;
• Dogon.

The vast majority of players try to guess or predict the outcome of the game without thinking about the financial efficiency of their game in the long run. Most bookmaker players are so-called "predictors" - they are not so much interested in money as in guessing the result.

There is also a fundamentally different category of players who, first of all, are guided by odds and long-term profit. If such players see a bet that is profitable in the long run, they will definitely make it. If you constantly bet on a coefficient overestimated by the bookmaker, then profit after a certain period of time is guaranteed.

This principle is called Value Betting ("value betting") - that is, bets on events underestimated by the bookmaker.

This principle can be more clearly explained by the following example. Most players always bet on the conditional "Real Madrid", not paying attention to the odds and rightly believing that this superclub is stronger than its rival in any case. But the “valuers” do not take into account a specific match, but work for the future and bet against Real Madrid.

Since the odds for such an outcome are always very high, even a single misfire of the superclub will bring more money than regular bets on the favorite.

Such strategies as "catching up" and "forks" in theory are win-win, but only in theory.

For such bets to be profitable, two conditions must be met:

• The player must have an infinite game bank;
• The bookmaker should allow him to bet any amount.

In practice, both conditions are unattainable for objective reasons. It’s still worth talking about these strategies, although we don’t advise beginners to practice them.

Catching up is a constant increase in the amount of the bet after each loss, which allows you to return the money with interest. Catching up is both a financial and gaming strategy. Let's say you bet on a draw for a certain team until this event happens, while each time increasing the amount in such a way as to cover financial losses and make a profit.

A draw will definitely happen, but there is a certain danger: it can happen at a time when you no longer have money for the next bet.

Surebets or arbitrage bets were once very popular, but now, when the odds offered by bookmakers are about the same everywhere, it is becoming more and more difficult to play on the difference. In addition, the offices themselves do not like arbers and can easily block their accounts, suspecting them of betting on arbitrage.

Financial Strategies

There are also many financial strategies:

• Fixed income;
• Martingale strategy;
• Kelly criterion;
• Flat.

It is believed that beginners should try to bet approximately the same amount. The game of a rigidly fixed amount in a long period of time is called "flat". We consider this strategy the most reliable and profitable. Moreover, after a long-term game, luck will clearly show whether the player has a gaming or mathematical advantage over the bookmaker.

5. Earnings on football bets

No professional handicapper makes a profit thanks to "feel" (intuition, luck, fortune). Of course, all sports forecasters need a certain amount of luck, but this quality is not a superpower, the result of experience and numerous mistakes. Yes, yes, for a smart person, mistakes are the best school.

In football, every fan considers himself an analyst, a predictor, an expert. This sport is unrivaled by bookmakers in terms of box office receipts. In no other sports discipline there are so many “specialists” who know who, how, when and why will win. Almost all players who come to bet for the first time in the betting shop, and for many it remains the main sport.

Meanwhile, it is not enough just to understand football and have statistical information to be successful in betting. Even experienced players and coaches do not always guess the winners. Soccer is a very unpredictable sport in which not the strongest opponent often wins.

This is explained simply: the low effectiveness of football games, the increased likelihood of refereeing errors and random goals.

To successfully bet on football, you must follow a number of simple but effective rules:

• Never bet on your favorite team (you will definitely either overestimate or underestimate it);
• Do not bet on all football leagues in a row: just choose one or two in which you are best versed;
• Try to bypass top matches (central matches of the tour, final fights): as a rule, the odds for such games are verified by bookmakers to hundredths;
• Control of emotions: the absence of excessive emotional reactions is a guarantee of stability.

And one more piece of advice: follow the movement of the coefficients, trying to bet on the most profitable value. For professionals, even tenths and hundredths matter.

6. Features of online betting

Today, most players bet at bookmakers via the worldwide web. It's easy to do this today.

Today, this powerful one provides a huge range of possibilities, from which it takes your breath away!

The company offers sports fans and active fans a qualitatively new level of service, as well as a huge selection of various events.

The events you can bet on include a wide variety of popular sports such as football, tennis, basketball, volleyball, ice hockey, golf, boxing, and more.

The presence of analytical, statistical, related and other information, on the one hand, gives users certain advantages, but on the other hand, almost all the factors that can and should be taken into account are taken into account by the bookmaker and included in the odds.

The advantage of a bookmaker over an ordinary player is obvious: qualified analysts are employed in the offices, who use expensive software and clear mathematical calculations.

The bookmaker receives his profit regardless of the outcome of the competition: this is due to the very mechanism of making bets.

What is left for the player? It remains for him to choose, analyze, think and place bets strictly in accordance with his strategy and tactics. Invaluable assistance to handicappers is provided by software for working with arrays of statistical information, which can be bought or downloaded for free on the Internet.

Special programs will help:

• Calculate bet amounts;
• Find the optimal offer in terms of odds among many bookmakers;
• Keep financial statistics of your own rates.

It is important not only to find the necessary information on the Internet, but also to be able to use it. Nowadays, it is possible to profit even from blogs, twitter, social media pages of athletes, especially those who perform in individual sports.

7. Basic rules for making money on bets for beginners

To earn money on sports betting, it is not enough to periodically guess the results of matches. It is necessary to constantly develop your abilities (both analytical and playing) and follow the advice of professional handicappers.

Each successful player has his own rules for earning money, but there are some points that almost all plus players in the bookmaker agree with:

1. Choosing the Right Bookmaker. A reliable online platform for the game is half the success. Serious players have accounts in several offices that do not tend to limit limits and block successful players. I recommend

Sports betting attracts with the possibility of easy enrichment. However, in reality, only a few are consistently earning at the bookmaker's office. It is possible, but very difficult. Beginners who have just come to betting are wondering if it is possible to make money on sports betting? To begin with, we will answer briefly and in an understandable language, and then we will delve into the details.

In order for the bets to be winning and carry income that is comparable to the average salary, thoroughly understand betting. Explore hundreds of articles and publications, read a few books, watch educational videos and even movies about sports betting. However, theoretical training in this matter is not the most important component. Not all graduates of universities, even prestigious ones, become successful and highly paid specialists. But to be successful in betting, you need to try, starting with knowledge and then practical experience.

If you are not able to take bets seriously and as a real job, forget about making money with them. Making profit from bookmakers is real, but problematic. Therefore, only a few become successful cappers, because most of the clients of bookmakers lose and are in the red at a distance.

Theory of Probability in Betting

The result of any sporting event is an accident. The outcome is never known in advance. The occurrence of one or another outcome is estimated by the probability, which is expressed as a percentage, and then the coefficients. An obvious example is a coin toss. The chances of getting heads and tails are the same - 50%. But if everything is obvious with a coin, then it is much more difficult to correctly assess the probability of the outcome of a sports competition, because it is influenced by an uncountable number of factors.

If you toss a coin a dozen times, then every time you can get "tails". This is unlikely, but possible. You can check it yourself, suddenly become a witness of this. But if you toss a coin a hundred times, then there will certainly be an “eagle”, and not just “tails”. From this, the main concept in betting is derived - dispersion.

The dispersion indicates the deviations of the result from the mathematical expectation. If the distance is short, then the deviation will be significant. In our example, one side can fall out of 10 times, or 7 “eagles” and 3 “tails” and any other combination. But when the coin is tossed 1000 times, the combination changes and approaches the expected 50/50.

Sports betting is a constant risk

The result of the match, which becomes the subject of bets, has its own probability. For example, the victory of Liverpool in the confrontation with Tottenham. However, it is problematic to correctly determine the chances of outcomes, because many details affect the victory of one of the parties. No one can say the exact probability: neither office analysts, nor experts, nor athletes, and even more so, neither bettors. You can only predict the event and place a bet with high chances of success, but there will never be a win-win and 100% option.

The bookmaker's office reveals its opinion about the event by odds. How bookmakers form quotes, read. Ideally, a ratio of 2.0 is 50%, 1.5 is 66%, and so on. However, this does not mean that the outcome with odds of 2.0 (50%) will win every other time. To understand why, let's go back to variance.

At a short distance, bet with odds. 2.0 can either play 10 times in a row or lose the same number of times. When beginners are lucky and win 7-8 bets out of 10, they think it's easy money, but the situation changes with subsequent transactions. Recall the coin example.

Among beginners, it is widely believed that after a failure, the chances of success on the next bet increase. This is not true. In reality, the probability of a positive outcome does not depend on the previous outcome. If heads are thrown 10 times in a row, this does not mean that on the 11th time, tails are more likely to fall out. The probability remains the same - 50%. Remember that each bet is a new risk.

Important earnings on the road

Now it is obvious that it is possible to talk about the profitability of forecasts only over a long distance. And 100 bets is not a sufficient period, because with such a number of transactions, the dispersion is still large. Roughly speaking, even a person who is far from sports and betting is able to guess 60 match results out of 100 with a coefficient of about two. But this does not mean that this person is a professional capper or a "plus" player. In the long run, the variance will even out the results and give no chance for random profits.

A decent distance depends on the coefficients. The higher the quotes, the greater the variance, which means that you need as long a distance as possible. If a bettor bets on odds of 1.9-2.1, then at least 1000 transactions are needed to evaluate real abilities. A shorter distance will not display the true capabilities of the capper, because due to the pronounced dispersion, the random factor is large.

There are a lot of forecasters in the network, showing statistics of 50-100 transactions, even if it is 82+3=15-, they do not prove anything. And the other side of the coin: if a capper made 5-6 misfires in a row, or even more, this does not mean that he is a scammer or mediocrity. Evaluate your performance at a distance. Beginners do not know this, so scammers take advantage of this and profit from gullible players by selling false predictions that will not bring profit.

The bookmaker's margin is the bettor's enemy

The bookmaker's office earns thanks to the margin. To understand what it is, let's go back to flipping a coin. The probability of each side falling out is 50%, so the odds should be 2.0. But if the first player puts 100 rubles on the “eagle”, and the second the same amount on “tails”, then one of them will win 100%, but the office will not earn anything, because it will simply give the money to one client, to another (winning one player - 200 rubles). Therefore, in such a situation, the coefficient will not be 2.0, but for example 1.9 (depending on the bookmaker's margin).

In such a situation, the office pays the winner 190 rubles, although 200 were bet. The missing 10 rubles is the margin (commission), without which it is impossible to imagine the existence of a bookmaker. Regardless of the result (“heads” or “tails”), the office is guaranteed to earn.

When the bookmaker's analytical staff evaluates opposite outcomes with identical odds, the same quotes are offered. Because of this, the office remains in the black at a distance, receiving a stable income. The margin eats up part of the player's profit, so it becomes incredibly difficult to make money. Yes, it will be possible to temporarily replenish the wallet, but it is almost impossible to make sure that rates completely replace work and become the main, and most importantly, permanent income.

It is more important for the analysts of the office to predict what the players will bet on and where the main flow of funds will go. Based on this, they set the coefficients. The real assessment of the probability of outcomes fades into the background, because the bookmaker must balance the bets on the event. After all, if there is an obvious outcome, then everyone will bet on it, while the opposite option will not collect bets at all. The office in such a situation will work only if the clients' bets lose.

So is it really possible to make money on bets?

In the short term, yes, but as a permanent income that would provide you with at least a few years, no. Even the best analysts show minimal profit or are in the red because of the margin, at a distance.

You can earn if you find inflated quotes. If the bookmaker determines the probability of an outcome more precisely, then it will turn out to win all the time. The main task is to turn the margin in your favor. And here the confrontation begins not only with the office, but also with other bettors.

When most players rated the winner wrongly, distortions are formed due to loads (a huge amount is bet on one outcome, and almost no one bets on the opposite). In this case, the coefficient for the reverse option increases. Let's say someone took a risk and bet a huge amount on total goals over 2.5. The bookmaker lowers the quotes for this outcome, and raises the quotes for the total less than 2.5 in order not to suffer losses. So don't be afraid to go against public opinion.

Summary

Even a few earn money by betting on sports. The margin does not always provide bookmakers with profit, so many go to fraud, blocking the accounts of successful players or delaying their payments.

Sometimes bets are brazenly canceled allegedly due to match-fixing, or the client is told that it was not him who made the deals, but someone on his behalf. Offices that do not care about their reputation decide to completely reset the balances of users, betting instead of them. Proving the correctness in such a situation is problematic. This suggests that it is not always easy for a bookmaker to make a profit, so he is forced to play dishonestly. Although, even the owners of successful bookmakers are able to deceive in order to enrich themselves even more.

You can earn on bets if you correctly assess the probability of outcomes and compare them with quotes. Find value odds and play those markets where you have a mathematical advantage.
