Rules of the game in bookmakers Automatic translate
People who are far from betting consider making money on bets a waste of money and time. The judgment is philistine, since handicapping is not an easy mental work, based on a huge amount of betting knowledge and acquired experience.
These provisions have been refined by more than one generation of forecasters . This is a kind of instruction warning novice bettors against unnecessary bookmaker mistakes and miscalculations. So:
The main principles of making money on bets
- Eliminate the fear of losing. There is the concept of “coward money”, which the inexperienced handicapper is afraid of losing, and which (often due to financial strain) he is simply obliged to increase. Here the deposit is “merged” almost completely.
- You choose only a trusted online bookmaker.
- Suppress the desire to instantly return what you lost. Streaks of unsuccessful bets happen, but the desire to return everything every minute only leads to the bankroll being reset. Due to emotions, betting becomes thoughtless, large sums are involved, and “off-scale” odds are sought. The principle: “half the kingdom” for the desired outcome does not apply here, and guarantees complete collapse.
- Avoid the phenomenon of victorious euphoria. The point is similar to the previous one, but the order is reversed. Having found himself in the flow of victories, and having believed in making money on bets, the better is completely convinced of his own invulnerability, and, without taking off his “rose-colored glasses,” goes to complete zero.
- Don’t get hung up on odds. Debutants are characterized by psychological instability, often changing (due to increased odds) already thought-out and verified bets. Full-time bookmaker quoters often catch newbies in this, deliberately manipulating the values of the bookmaker’s line.
- Forget about profits from your favorite team. Assessing the chances of the “home” team is always biased, so it is better to ignore such bets. Professional forecasting is not entertainment, but a path to stable earnings on bets.
- Eliminate betting greed. The desire for high handicapping indicators is a plus, but the search for huge odds and express bets consisting of ten (or more) outcomes is clearly too much.
- Don’t live by other people’s recommendations. Outside advice is useful, but it is necessary to have an individual vision. It is common knowledge that most players are not successful, so listening to everyone is to your detriment.
- Use "reboot". Daily betting can lead to a breakdown; even professionals recommend temporarily switching off from handicapping activities. The forecaster’s brain is a complex apparatus, requiring periodic reboots and rest. A player simply needs a weekend, otherwise wrong decisions are inevitable.
The above betting axioms can be adopted not only by beginners, but also by experienced forecasters whose earnings on bets cannot be called smooth (“black stripes”, frequent deposit losses). By the way, every betting professional has many individual secrets, honed over years of successful (and not so successful) confrontations with the bookmaker.
