Althought iam not a betting guru (i dont think there is one anyway) i want to share with you my betting filosophy that has given me a lot of winnings considering the money i had invested.First of all i started betting in order to have a steady income month in month out.To do that i was going to make sure that i win at least 8 out of 10 times i played.So my first rule was to bet only on the favorites and to be more explicit on the hot favorites.I understand now you are thinking that the odds on those are not so inviting but bear with me.My second thought was that i needed to be well educated to at least three or four sports and have basic information for another four.The reason is simple:Ιf you accumulate three or four hot favorites you can get a descent odd without risking too much.So my target was to have always winning bets.The amount of winnings per bet was not my concern(In the beggining).Anyway you can understand that information in different sports always provides those hot favorites for you to accumulate. Another basic rule is that not all sports have created equal.I live in europe so soccer is the sport that attracts the most attention and for a nice reason i might add.But for my betting purposes is not so reliable if you expect the favorites to prevail.On the contrary basketball(european) and volleyball are always a goldmine(minus the playoffs).Tennis is workable resource but there are many parameters that require attention:-surface-because every player usually has only one or two favorites , -tournament importance- Players in tennis have a tedency not to try their best if the match doesnt go their way from the beggining in order to jump right away to another tournament when they lose.So major tournaments are always a sizeably efficient betting chance.Some of you will say that to get to understand those things in tennis for example requires a lot of research and time.i will not argue with you but think of the benefits as well.You dont even have to be a tennis fan to understand that right now tennis for example is dominated by the amazing Roger Federer who destroys competition 99% of the time.So when posting your bets Roger is a nice guy to have around. My next rule is the 1.20 rule:Τhat means that a single event that has bigger odds than 1.20 is not even an option for me. I usually prefer 1.10 odds or lower.Very low i hear you say but accumulating the right events gives you a nice odd. As far as soccer is concerned i always play double chances for the games i choose.The first chance is always the draw and the other for the favorite.For example if Chelsea plays Aston Villa at home 1x is my pick. if Chelsea plays Liverpool this game is not for me. Now let just say that you have some basic Knowledge in sports and you want to initial wagering how much are you willing to deposit? As a rule of thumb no less than 50 euros and no more than 100.Bet only the more funds you have or dont bet at all.When i started i deposited 80 euros and i set a goal to double the amount in a month. I actually doubled it twice and when it was time for my first withdrawal i withdrew those 80 euros i deposited and i said to myself that from this moment on whatever you win or lose is not you money.I think that is a great feeling to have.But as my goal was to reach a steady income i made a promise not to withdraw for the next 3 decades . I was betting steadily halph of my earnings and my betting was consistent almost a wager every day.after three many years i had reached 2000 euros.So the stakes in bets almost always went as high as 400 or 500 for the possibility to win for example 50.You can say that is stupid but if you win almost all the time(two or three losses) is money in the bank.By the end of the fourth month i withdrew 1300 euros and still had the 2000.Thats my method: Το reach a respectable amount of funds that are all winnings and to bet with small odds relative big amounts of cash that 90 percent of the time wont lose.And if you lose some of them in the process remember:it was never yours.your 80 are in your pocket along with an additional amount of cash. Good Luck and safe betting.
