Sports Betting – How to Pick a Winner
When it comes to sports betting, how to pick a winner is the ultimate question. That most bettors do not have a clue is confirmed by the fact that 98% of all bettors end up losing.
Believe it or not, the two percent that win are not that much better than you are at picking games. A coin toss will get you a 50% chance of winning. The best and most successful shoot for 60%.
It is how the games are picked that makes the difference. A successful bettor has a set system that they know gives them a long term advantage.
The systems are rooted in situations that occur that give one team an advantage over the other. For example, a baseball team may play indoors at home and have a game scheduled outdoors. Maybe there is a different playing surface for the visiting team.
The point is, there are a lot of situations available in any sport that will give you an advantage. The successful bettor has found them, and uses them to make potentially a large amount of money.
A winning situation can often be found with teams playing at home and are also the underdog. For example, in the NFL if the home underdog has a positive give/take number and the visiting opponent has a negative number, the underdog has proven to be a good bet. Nothing revs up the home crowd like a turnover.
