Sports betting is a popular pursuit for many people all over the world. However, most of them lose in the long run but it doesn't have to be this way. In this article, I'll cover X tips so you can get one over the bookies.

Never Act Emotionally

The moment that you act emotionally is the moment you lose. Remember to always use logic over emotions. Always have a reason for entering or leaving a bet. Is that "feeling" you are getting a result of your emotions or taking in all the factors? Only you can answer this question.

Betting Comes Down To Probabilities

Some people think that betting on an odds-on favourite means that they can't lose. In fact, this only means that your chances of winning are greater than 50/50. But if you bet this way all the time without thinking about it, then there will be occasions where you lose and the bookie wins. And overall, in the long run, you will lose money.

For example, let's say that it is late in a sports even and the odds you have are 1.1. This implies that there is a 91% chance of winning according to the odds offered by someone else or a bookie. You might think this is great but it is only great if the bookie is underestimating the chances of winning. The bookie thinks that 9% of the time you will lose. However, if you choose your bets carefully and lose only 1% of the time then you will emerge with a long term profit.

But if you lose frequently, maybe 20% of the time, then you have not carefully selected your bets.

Always Know Your Market

Learn as much about your market as you can. If you want to bet on NBA then learn something about NBA basketball before you start to bet. You don't need to know everything but you do need to learn the basics before you start to bet.
