Basic sports betting tips

Introduction

In this article we will look at a series of tips for those who want to enter the world of sports betting. These basic sports betting tips will also be valid for those who have a certain level of experience, but have not achieved the expected results.

Unfortunately, most users do not place optimised bets that allow them to make money through sports betting. Many of them are tempted to place bets in an irrational and impulsive manner, which allows bookmakers to profit from these bad practices and proliferate on the internet.

We would like to give you some very simple guidelines that will allow you to avoid making the same mistakes that almost everyone makes when placing a bet.

Money advice

1. Don't gamble more money than you can afford to.We have to understand that betting has to be seen as entertainment and not as a way of making a living. In addition, we must assume that we can lose a large number of bets and that our bankroll will be considerably reduced. Therefore, we recommend that you only use money that is not essential for your daily life.
2. Create a budgetThis point is linked to the previous one and will allow you to keep track of your profits and losses.
3. Do not gamble to offset lossesIt is preferable to have a style of play based on small bets that allow us to make small profits, rather than trying to recoup the money we have lost by placing a larger bet that could compromise our bankroll.
4. Never bet more than 10% of our capital.This advice will help us to control our bankroll and to be able to place a greater number of bets with which to obtain small profits.

Sports tips

1. Only bet on events that we know in depth.If, for example, you are a basketball fan and know the NBA in depth, we recommend that you only place your bets on these types of sporting events. If, on the other hand, although you like basketball, you do not know what happens in the European leagues, never commit your money to these events, because you will be placing blind bets that will increase your losses.
2. Analyse before you betPlease note that there are a multitude of factors that influence the outcome of sporting events. Here we can find, from the physical shape of the players, or their state of mind due to previous victories or defeats, to the weather forecast for the time of the event if it takes place outdoors. If we want to start making a profit we need to know everything about the event we want to bet on.
3. Follow the live event to place live betsThere are also many factors that can vary the outcome of this type of betting. It is therefore essential to be aware of all of them in order to obtain satisfactory results.
4. Betting with your head, not your heartIt seems obvious, but in many cases our preferences cause us to lose a large number of bets.

Tips on the type of bet and the bookmakers themselves

1. Familiarise yourself with the interface of the bookmakers you will be using.It is important to know how to use all the options that bookmakers make available to us on their applications and websites.
2. Using multiple bookmakersNot all bookmakers apply the same odds for a given event. For this reason it is interesting to deposit your money in several of them and to be able to choose the odds that suit you best.
3. Read and understand the conditions of the bonuses offered by bookmakers.It is important to be clear that the bonuses offered work like a hook product that makes us spend our money at a certain bookmaker. We recommend that you read the small print and understand how accepting a certain type of bonus can influence you.
4. Do not place bets containing excessive combinations.It may seem tempting at first glance to combine a large number of results in order to get a odds that will allow us to make a large profit. However, this type of betting is very similar to football pools, where it is virtually impossible to make a profit. For this reason, we recommend placing single, double, or triple bets at most.
