Fast passage

As soon as beginners get a little familiar with the world of betting, their attention is attracted by the various tactics and gaming systems developed by professionals. One of the first ways to correctly distribute a bankroll is to try the d’Alembert strategy. It bears the name of its creator, the great French mathematician and physicist.

Principles and rules of d'Alembert's strategy

The system of the outstanding scientist is a complicated version of catching up, based on algebraic progression. The player is invited to choose a certain fixed amount and denote it as a unit. This figure will become the first bet, as well as the step size. If you lose, the next amount must be increased by this unit, and so on, until you win. After winning, the bet amount must be reduced by the same amount of the original bet. It is advisable to choose events with odds of 3 – 4. The higher the odds, the more steps you can take until the winning end. Let's look at d'Alembert's strategy in more detail using an example.

As part of a prestigious tennis tournament, two famous athlete Rafael Nadal, representing Spain, and Serbian Novak Djokovic. We will bet on the break in each game for odds of 3.5. Let’s take the amount of 100 rubles for a fixed unit and make the first bet:

Net profit was: 1050 + 1400 – (100 + 200 + 300 + 200 + 300 + 400) = 950 rubles.

Dale outcomes and bets on taking someone else's serve are best suited for the D'Alembert strategy.

Counter-D'Alembert system

When starting to place bets, each privateer thinks about a plan that he will adhere to during the conclusion of transactions. When choosing several sports for analysis, you should remember that the game strategies will vary. Based on the famous D'Alembert system, a reverse game tactic was invented. Its differences from the original version:

1. When a bet wins, its amount increases by the size of the original bet.
2. If you lose, its amount decreases accordingly.

Counter-D'Alembert example

Let's look at the principle of operation of the counter-D'Alembert system in football. The Alaves team plays in the Spanish Premier League; matches with its participation often end in a draw. This is the outcome we will bet on.

1. The modest Las Palmas came to visit the club, we bet 100 rubles on odds 3 that the game will end with a draw. The result of the meeting: 1:1, our forecast turned out to be correct. The winnings amounted to 300 rubles. (net profit 200).
2. According to the system, for the next match we increase the bet amount by one unit, equal to 100 rubles. Now Alaves is playing away against the middle team Primera Eibar. Unexpectedly for many, the match ends peacefully again: 0:0. And our bet worked again. We are already in the black by 400 rubles.
3. We increase the amount by another unit and bet 300 rubles on the next game. This time Alaves hosts the Betis team, located at the very bottom of the standings. Predictably, the victory remains with the hosts: 1:0. Our bet lost. We are 300 rubles down.
4. We reduce the bet by one unit, now its amount is 200 rubles. Next game will take place in Bilbao, where the local Athletic team awaits the Alaves team. The club once again confirms its tendency to draw results. The score is not open, 0:0. And our bet won, plus 400 rubles of net profit to the bank.

In that specific example net profit after four games was:

200 + 400 – 300 + 400 = 700 rubles.

The effectiveness of d'Alembert and counter-D'Alembert strategies

Above we looked at examples with a positive outcome from using the system, but does this mean that the strategy is a win-win? Unfortunately no. Of course, such tactics have their risks, and you should not use them thoughtlessly, relying only on luck.

The main disadvantage of the strategy is that a long losing streak (more than 6 defeats in a row) does not allow you to gain profit or at least get your money back. Let's look at an example:

So, inspired by the situation described above, we chose the same Alaves team and will make predictions for a draw with odds of 3, but our bets fell on a different gaming period of time.

Now let's calculate whether we managed last win cover previous defeats:

600*3 – (100 + 200 + 300 + 400 + 500 + 600) = -300 rubles.

As a result, we are in the red, but the losing streak could have been longer, then our bank would have lost an even larger amount.

conclusions

By itself, the counter-D'Alembert strategy is ineffective and can drive a player into a significant disadvantage, but using your own brains, statistics and intuition, you can create a completely competitive system based on it. Good luck!

Danish betting strategy

The system got its name after the country where it was used for the first time. Its basic rules are similar to d'Alembert's strategy, but there are also fundamental differences. Let's look at examples of how to use the Danish betting strategy, and determine the advantages and disadvantages of it.

The essence of the Danish betting strategy

The Danish betting strategy can essentially be used live, because if the same bet loses, the odds rise, but not always enough to cover the size of previous losses. The player chooses a fixed amount with which to start the game. After each loss, the new bet is increased by the original size and is considered a step. But that is not all. Not only the bet amount increases, but also the odds. Let's take a closer look at an example:

After a winning bet, the cycle begins again. Now let's calculate the net profit:

500*3.5 – (100 + 200 + 300 + 400 +500) = 250 rubles.

Advantages and disadvantages of the Danish betting strategy

First, let's look at the main advantages of the presented system:

• it forgives up to 13 mistakes and allows you to easily gain profit (unlike d'Alembert's strategy);
• the risk with the amount of the initial bank is much lower than with a regular catch-up with each subsequent bet doubling.

And now the cons:

• If a bettor fails to win in the first few attempts, it will be much more difficult to do so in the future, because the coefficient is growing inexorably;
• is not a win-win, there is a risk of losing the entire bank in the event of a long series of unsuccessful bets.

Tips for Using the Danish Betting Strategy

Football is best suited for betting on the system, namely (after the first or second attempt) - express bets from predictable events. These are bets on obvious favorites with odds of 1.2 - 1.4, or a total of more than 1.5 on teams that score and concede a lot.

The first 4 bets are lost, we need to collect events at odds of 3.5. We will choose the victory of the clear favorites:

Manchester City – Crystal Palace L1 1.35

Granada – Real Madrid P2 1.40

Napoli – Cagliari P1 1.40

Bayern – Darmstadt 1.32

Overall coefficient: 3.5

There is a chance that one of the favorites will not be able to defeat the outsider, but it is small. It is even more difficult to imagine that using this principle you can lose 13 express bets in a row.

Conclusion

The Danish strategy has a right to exist, but without additional knowledge it is unlikely to be effective. Pre-match assessment of statistical data and other additional information will allow you to bring the system to perfection and win up to 3-4 rounds of bets without risking impressive amounts.

Kelly criterion

It is almost impossible to consistently make money on bets without using strategies or using only one. Moreover, sporting events differ greatly in their effectiveness and probability of outcomes. In the twentieth century, tactics for winning bets based on mathematical calculations became widespread. The calculation system was named after its creator, Edward Kelly, the Kelly Criterion. Below are some examples.

Rules for calculating the Kelly criterion

The Kelly Criterion strategy is based on a mathematical formula that allows you to determine the size of your bet taking into account statistical data, probability theory and your own knowledge, as well as the information collected.

The correct calculation of the Kelly criterion implies that the bettor who uses it is not an ordinary amateur, but a professional who is able to soberly assess the game situation and express the probability of winning as a percentage.

Formula for calculating the Kelly criterion:

(Kit BC * Ind.pr – 1) / (Kit BC – 1) * PPK * 100 = Right size rates, %,

Kit BC – this is the odds offered by the bookmaker for an event;

Ind.pr – forecast of the probability of winning, assigned by the player himself, its value should be in the range from 0 to 1;

PPK – an increasing-decreasing coefficient on which the degree of risk depends; the greater it is, the larger the winnings will be. Its number is chosen by the player himself, usually for a long period of time. Betters who use the strategy on an ongoing basis rarely use a coefficient higher than 0.4 in the formula;

Required bet size – the final percentage of your bank that must be bet on the selected event.

How does Kelly's strategy work?

Kelly's criteria will help you understand more clearly next example. So, let's bet on football. As part of the English Premier League, local Arsenal and Manchester United meet in London. Bookmakers give odds of 2.11 for the home team to win. In our opinion, the figure is clearly overestimated, because the guests recently had a very important match in the Europa League, and it is this tournament that the team is focused on, besides, the club’s infirmary is overcrowded, and there will be no key players on the field in the upcoming meeting.

Let's say our bank is 1000 rubles. Let’s calculate how much we should bet on the “Arsenal victory” event. The bookmaker gives odds of 2.11 for this outcome, which is slightly less than 50%. Our individual forecast is 70% (0.7). We select PPK 0.2. Now we plug the numbers into the formula:

(2.11 * 0.7 – 1) / (2.11 – 1) * 0.2 * 100 = 8.6% or 86 rubles.

The match ended with Arsenal winning with a score of 2:0, our bet played:

86 * 2,11 = 181,5;

181.5 – 86 = 95.5 rubles – net profit.

Now our bank is 1095.5, and it is from this amount that we should start in the following calculations.

Is it really possible to make money using the Kelly criteria?

Unfortunately, using this strategy alone will not lead to winnings. Sooner or later the player will simply lose the entire bank. To successfully apply the Kelly criterion, you must have in-depth knowledge of the chosen sport, follow the games and do serious work on researching statistical data.

Martingale strategy

In the bookmaker environment, it is difficult to find a strategy that would be as popular as the Martingale system. Its simplicity, accessibility and effectiveness have attracted bettors for many years. What is the essence of this method and is everything really as rosy as we would like?

The essence of the Martingale strategy

Initially, the method was conceived as a tactic for playing roulette for betting on red/black or any other casino game where the main choice is between two outcomes. But very soon it was borrowed by betters specializing in sports forecasts. Its meaning is to constantly double the bet amount in the event of another loss. In this case, the odds on the outcome must be at least two. That is, the amount bet upon winning must double.

Let's look at an example.

We will bet on odd number points in the game by the minimum acceptable coefficient.

Let's calculate the profit received:

1600 * 2 – (100 + 200 + 400 + 800 + 1600) = 100 rubles.

Despite the prolonged losing streak, we still came out on top. But such a bet will work if there is enough budget for a winning bet, but the earnings with such risks are equal to the size of the first bet in the series.

Disadvantages of the Martingale strategy

At first glance, using the Martingale strategy and having a decent initial bank, it is impossible to lose, but this is not so. A losing streak can last as long as you like, and even with a good margin, you can lose a large amount. The fact is that bookmakers have long since begun to set the upper limit of the bet, thereby reducing all the advantages of this method of concluding transactions to nothing.

In addition, wanting to get a small win, the bettor risks a much larger amount, which only accelerates bankruptcy. Thus, such a method of financial management as the Martingale strategy cannot be called a win-win. It is not recommended for use by beginners and very gambling players. And also do not forget that the bankroll should not affect the financial situation of the family. Be prudent and then luck will be on your side!

Miller management

History knows quite a few bettors who achieved success with the help of their own knowledge and the systems they developed. One of these lucky ones was J. Miller. The American not only became rich himself, but also shared his strategy with millions.

Miller's Basic Principles of Financial Management

The system developed by a talented handicapper will not help you guess the outcome of sporting events; it is designed only for the correct distribution of funds from the initial bank.

Miller has written many articles in which he substantiates, from a scientific point of view, the main mistakes of most bettors. His strategy will help you avoid the temptation to increase bets and earn money through the correct distribution of your funds.

In order for Miller’s strategy to really work, you need to turn off your head, conquer all gambling emotions in yourself and firmly understand that the probability of winning current rate does not depend on previous winning or losing outcomes. The author of the method convincingly advises choosing events with two possible outcomes and odds of 1.85 – 1.91 (each office is different, they depend on the margin that the bookmaker takes for himself as an intermediary). In other words, Miller financial management is used for events that have a 50% probability.

And now the actual essence of the system. Miller suggests betting small fixed amounts of 1% of the total pot. And increase them only if the initial capital has increased by 25%. The bet itself is increased by the same number.

Our bank is 10,000 rubles, i.e. the bet size will be 100 rubles. As soon as the total amount increases by 25% and reaches 12,500, we increase the rate to 125 rubles. For the strategy to be profitable, it is enough to guess 52.85% of all predicted events.

Disadvantages of Miller's financial management strategy

Miller calls the key to the success of his method a timely revision of the bet amount and proper distribution of the bank's money, but the result of the bets depends on the player himself. Using strategy alone to make a profit is not enough; it must be combined with an in-depth analysis of statistics and other information about the upcoming game.

Tank attack method

Financial strategies, unlike gaming ones, teach bettors to correctly distribute the initial bank and do not allow them to lose all the money, trying to win back in the event of a single failure. One of the most interesting tactics of this kind is called a “tank attack”.

The essence of the tank attack strategy

The financial principle is easy to explain in game form. The bets are tanks that act in a row against the enemy, and every loss is the loss of one of them. The original bank is divided into several equal parts. There may be 3 or 5, or 7... And for each one a different forecast is made. If the bet wins, the attack continues and the entire amount is bet on the next event. If the forecast turns out to be incorrect, the tank is hit and is out of the fight.

Our initial pot was 3,000 rubles. We divide it into three equal parts of 1000 and place bets (it is advisable to choose events with small odds that you are confident of winning):

1. Manchester City – Crystal Palace: bet 1000 on the home team’s victory for 1.30, final score: 5:0, win 1300.
2. Amkar – CSKA: we bet 1000 on the guests’ victory for 1.60, final score 0:2, win 1600.
3. Barcelona – Villarreal: bet 1000 on the home team to win for 1.20, final score 4:1, win 1200.

Next series of tank attack:

1. 1300 for Liverpool - Southampton - home win for 1.50. The game ended in a draw and the bet was lost.
2. 1600 on Lazio - Sampdoria - P1 for 1.35. Final score: 7:3, winnings 2160.
3. 1200 for Granada – Real Madrid – guest victory in 1.15. Final score: 0:4, winnings 1380.

After the second series we lost one tank, we continue:

1. 2160 at Chelsea - Middlesbrough - home win for 1.50. Final score 3:0, winnings 3240.
2. 1380 at Chievo - Palermo - home victory in 1.56. The game ended in a draw, 1:1. The bet lost.

After the tank attack, there was an amount left in our bank equal to 3240.

3240 – 3000 = 240 rubles – net profit.

Now we divide this amount into several equal parts and continue the game.

The above are events with odds of 1.15 – 1.60; the lower they are, the greater the probability of winning. When to end the “attack” is decided directly by the player himself; if in the example we had stopped after the second stage, the profit would have been:

2160 + 1380 = 3540;

3540 – 3000 = 540 rubles.

Tank attack strategy. Is it really possible to win?

The success of the strategy directly depends on the better’s ability to analyze and competently use the information received. Even small odds do not guarantee a win, and if you blindly choose only numbers, sooner or later the entire bank will be drained.

Betting strategy using the Oscar Grind system

By using multiple strategies in sports betting, your chances of success always increase. Many financial systems are built on the principles of the Martingale game tactics and represent its improved copy. This is the strategy of Oscar Grind.

The essence of the Oscar Grind betting system

Unlike the notorious Martingale strategy, in which the bet amount increases after a loss, in the Oscar Grind system the amount increases after a win. If your forecast fails, then nothing needs to be changed.

The maximum bet on one event cannot be more than 1/12 of the total bank, and the odds on the selected outcome must not be less than 2.

The increase in the amount after a win occurs once, even if you managed to win twice, the series will start anew with the third prediction. Let's take a closer look at the Oscar Grind system using an example:

Our initial bank is 1200 rubles, i.e. The first bet will be 100 rubles. Select an event with a coefficient of 2:

The final bank amounted to 1400 rubles, net profit: 1400 – 1200 = 200 rubles.

As can be seen from the example, it is possible to make money on the strategy by guessing 50% of the bets.

Is it possible to win using the Oscar Grind strategy?

Experienced bettors who have tried the strategy on themselves are extremely skeptical about it, believing that sooner or later it will lead to a complete loss. Experts in the field of probability theory came to the same conclusion.

For a stable plus, the player must guess at least 50% of bets with odds of at least 2. In practice, this is almost impossible. Considering the margin that the bookmaker takes, the probability of the event is less than 50%.

The advantages of the system include protection from bookmaker limits and the impossibility of quickly merging the bank.

The Oscar Grind strategy is great for use in the short term, but its long-term use is almost 100% likely to end in failure. Learn to properly distribute money on bets, both after a loss and after a victory. And then permanent profit or temporary preservation of the bankroll will be ensured.

Monty Hall Paradox

The use of bankroll distribution systems and bet selection strategies protects each bettor from the possible loss of his entire budget. Experienced players have verified that it is necessary to use different methods of playing in practice, especially since there are quite a lot of such methods. The Monty Hall paradox is one of many. The unique strategy was named after the host of a popular program in the United States. For the first time, her explanations were shown there.

The essence of the Monty Hall paradox

The show explained the Monty Hall Paradox using a simple mathematical riddle. The subject was offered a choice of 3 doors, behind one of which was Grand Prize- a car, behind the other two are goats. The probability of opening the correct door in each of the three cases, according to mathematical theory, was 33.3%. After the participant pointed to the door he liked, the presenter opened one of the two with a goat (the one that the player did not name) and offered to change his choice.

Most often, the subjects insisted on their initial opinion, not understanding one simple thing. The probability that the car is hidden behind the initially selected door will remain 33.3%, when the probability of finding the car behind the second door increases to 66.6%.

And if there are not 3, but 100 doors, and the leader opens 98 with goats in turn, then the probability of guessing correctly by changing your mind increases to 99%.

Monty Hall paradox in examples

Let's consider the application of Monty Hall's paradox using the example of bets in bookmakers.

The end of the season is approaching in the Italian Serie A. Each team has only one match left to play. Let's say three teams: Crotone, Palermo and Pescara are fighting for survival in the major league and have approximately equal chances for success. Whichever club earns more points in the last game will continue to play in Serie A. The probability of each of them to advance further is 33.3%. We're betting on Palermo. Pescara plays first and is defeated. The probability of passing Crotone increases to 66.6%. Now you need to place a bet on this team, and its amount should cover the possible loss from the first forecast and bring a profit on top.

conclusions

At first glance, the solution contradicts all basic logic and common sense. However, if you think carefully, everything will fall into place. The Monty Hall paradox strategy clearly shows bettors their main mistakes, the inability to realistically assess the possibilities of winning outcomes.

Counter traffic

It’s almost impossible to play bets without a plan and earn money consistently. Therefore, all successful bettors, after testing different systems, use 3-4 constantly or create their own, which significantly increases the chances of winning. Here we will look at a strategy for betting on sports on the opposite side. A counter-move bet is very similar to the arb system, so by adhering to its principles for a long time with a positive result, you can attract the “attention” of bookmakers to your account.

Principles of the Countermovement strategy

It’s very easy to understand the rules of the Contrakhod system. The player makes an express bet and then backs it with singles. The only mandatory condition is that the events must take place at different times. Let's take a closer look at an example.

For the events we need, we will select football matches in the English Premier League and make an express bet:

1. Southampton – Arsenal P1 for 2.00.
2. Everton – Watford P1 for 1.45.
3. Crystal Palace – Hull City P1 for 2.05.

Overall odds: 5.95.

Let the bet amount be 200 rubles. Before the first game, we need to insure the express and bet a single on the opposite outcome:

Southampton – Arsenal X2 for 1.85

Let's put 250 rubles on it. If the ordinary wins, our winnings will be:

250 * 1.85 = 462.5 rub.

Let's calculate the net profit. To do this, subtract the amount of the bet and the lost express:

462.5 – 250 – 200 = 12.5 rub.

If the single loses, we move on to the next event in the accumulator and make new rate. We choose its amount taking into account the previous loss:

Everton – Watford X2 for 2.85

Let's put 250 rubles on it. If the ordinary wins, our winnings will be:

250 * 2.85 = 712.5 rub.

Net profit:

712.5 – 250 – 250 – 200 = 12.5 rubles.

If the ordinary loses, we move on to the last event in the accumulator. Currently we have bet the amount of 700 rubles. If you are lucky, the express winnings will be 1190 rubles, i.e. for the last ordinary we have 490 rubles left:

Crystal Palace – Hull City X2 for 1.82.

Winning this bet will not cover the money spent, and we will be in the red. What to do? Strategy Counterattack doesn't work?

Experienced bettors, using counter-move bets, recommend leaving for last the event in which you are most confident and abandoning the last single. However, it rarely comes to this. In reality, an express bet with a large overall odds loses at the very beginning, on the first or second move.

conclusions

The Counter move strategy is not a win-win strategy, but proper distribution of events in the express bet will help you consistently win a small amount on your insurance bet.

Betting system “+60%”

Most betting tactics at bookmakers are combined systems from existing popular strategies. “+60%” is one of them. It includes elements of the classic Martingale strategy and the lesser-known flat system, which consists of betting a fixed amount on each selected event.

The essence of the “+60%” system

The main principles of the “+60%” strategy:

1. We select events with odds of at least 1.7.
2. We divide the bank into parts and bet, starting with 1% of the total money, increasing the amount in case of loss in the following percentage sequence: 1; 3.5; 9.5; 24.5; 61.5.
3. In order for the strategy to be profitable, you cannot allow more than 5 losses in a row.

The strategy is different high degree risk, because Even a professional player has losing streaks of 5 or more bets.

And yet, losing 5 bets one after another with odds of 1.7 - 1.8 is not so easy. The probability of winning each of them is about 56%, and losing 5 times in a row is 1.7%.

The initial bank is 1000 rubles. We will bet on events with odds of 1.8.

1107 – 1000 = 107 rubles – net profit.

conclusions

The “+60%” system, like others, is not a win-win system, but the probability of making a profit when using it is much higher than with the same Martingale and “Fixed Profit” strategies.

Composite odds

One of the sources of income for bookmakers is margin. This is the difference between the real probability of winning and the odds provided by the office, the part that the exchange takes for intermediation. In some bookmakers, the margin is so high that playing according to any of the known financial strategies doomed to fail. The “composite odds” system allows you to increase the winning amount by dividing your bets into two.

Using a Composite Odds Strategy

The proposed system is suitable for volleyball, basketball and tennis, those sports where the overall victory in the game consists of victory in individual sets, quarters or halves.

Let's take a closer look at an example.

Two long-time rivals, Italian Fabio Fognini and Spaniard Rafael Nadal, meet on the tennis court. The odds are 1.74 on the favorite of the match (Nadal), so we will bet on him. Now let's look at the line proposed by the bookmaker, namely, let's pay attention to the exact score of the games. If Nadal wins, the game will end with a score of 2:0 for odds of 3.0 or 2:1 for odds of 3.40 in favor of the Spaniard. If, instead of betting on a regular win, we break the bank and make 2 predictions on the exact score, our profit will be higher.

Disadvantages of the Compound Odds Strategy

System composite coefficients has one, but quite significant drawback. The game could go in a completely different scenario, and you will lose all your money. There is always the possibility that even the most hopeless underdog can beat a venerable favorite.

Strategy “1.01 – 1.02”

Playing with a bookmaker without tactics is not entirely good idea. In any confrontation there must be a plan for victory. In sports betting, players use more than just one such plan, but also backup and safety plans. Experienced betters use proven strategies; the “1.01 -1.02” strategy has become popular in live mode.

Operating principle of the “1.01 -1.02” system

When a meeting is held between approximately equal teams, any event in the game is interpreted by bookmakers in one direction or another, and the odds change by several tenths or hundredths. If there is a clear favorite in a pair, the coefficient changes only from 1.01 to 1.02.

According to the strategy, at the very beginning of the match, the player lays a small amount, for example, 100 rubles, with odds of 1.01. After the odds have changed to 1.02, we place a second bet, this time “for”. The amount must be equal to the potential winnings from the first bet. If the favorite wins, our bank increases by 100 rubles; if the outsider miraculously wins, we break even.

Subtleties of the “1.01 – 1.02” strategy

The tactic can be used multiple times even within the same game, however, due to the high demand for minimum odds, bets may not go through and may be blocked by the bookmaker.

To successfully use the system, you must have access to live broadcast without delays, otherwise you may simply not have time to secure your strategy.

The “1.01 – 1.02” system is more focused on experienced bettors who can skillfully play live odds. Beginners are better off choosing a different strategy.

Fixed percentage from the bank

To become a successful bettor, it is not enough to have knowledge in the topic of sporting events; one of the most important factors in preserving and increasing funds is the correct distribution of the bankroll. Using money management greatly simplifies life not only for bettors, but also for traders, investors and other people who invest their own money. The “Fixed percentage of the bank” betting system refers to financial management strategies.

The essence of the Fixed Bank Percentage Strategy

First of all, the player must determine the initial bank. Each bet will be a fixed percentage of this amount.

General bank - 1000 rubles. We will bet 10% of the bank, i.e. 100 rubles. Let’s say our bet lost, the amount remaining in the account is:

1000 – 100 = 900 rubles.

Let's say our bet with odds of 3 wins:

90 * 3 = 270.

General bank:

900 – 90 + 270 = 1080.

Again we calculate 10% - 108 rubles, etc.

At first glance, it is impossible to lose using this financial strategy, but in reality, sooner or later the player will be overtaken by a streak of failures, and the bet will drop to an amount less than the bookmaker’s minimum rate. This automatically means losing your entire bankroll.

conclusions

By itself, the strategy of a fixed percentage of the bankroll does not represent any value for betters who dream of beating a bookmaker, but using it in combination with other systems can bring positive results. A modified tactic of a fixed percentage of the bank is the Kelly Criterion, which is successfully used professional players on bets.

Upon registration, each new client is provided with a bonus in the form of a free bet of 1,500 rubles.

Where? When? and so on. Both bookmakers are licensed, so to register you will definitely need an account with TsUPIS (as with any other bookmaker allowed in the Russian Federation).

The basics of sports betting - learning the basics for beginners

Making money on sports betting often attracts beginners. They do not delve into the subtleties and hope for a big income, forgetting about the risks and difficulties. First of all, this should be done by those who are truly attached to sports. Desire alone is not enough; you also need to be familiar with at least certain sports and know the terms of bookmakers.

Therefore, before studying sports betting strategies, we suggest that every beginner understand at least the basics.

Bets and strategies are divided into several categories based on different factors. First, let's look at what the rates are:

1. Singles.

The simplest option, which is more suitable for beginners. I placed a bet on one of the outcomes and received the bet amount multiplied by the odds in case of winning. If the bet is unsuccessful, the money remains with the bookmaker. Here are some examples:

• Single bet is a regular bet on one of the game outcomes.
• Double chance - a bet on two outcomes of the game, with three possible.
• Handicap is a bet on the difference in points (goals) of one of the teams.
• Total – the sum of points for the game (total or one of the teams).
• Half match – a bet on the first match and the entire game.

Bets are made on different outcomes, single bet can be opened by the number of red cards received, who will score the first goal, even what the weather will be like during the match. Beginners should not use exotic bets because it is extremely difficult to make a forecast.

1. Group.

From the name it is already clear that the bet is opened on several events at once. It’s more difficult to win money with them, but your earnings are also higher. Here you already need to decide whether to take increased risks or be content with little. They are divided into two types:

• Express – several outcomes are added to the coupon, and the odds are summed up. You can earn more, but the risks increase greatly. If even one prediction turns out to be wrong, you lose.
• System – includes several separate express bets with the same number of events. More often used by professionals, express bets do not depend on each other, so losing in one event does not mean that other bets did not work.

Some sports betting strategies involve the use of express bets and systems. If you need to bet on 2-3 events, it is better to use an express bet; if there are more of them, then the system is more suitable. You need to build on the chosen strategy.

1. Multiple.

A separate type of bets, even some professionals do not know about them. They include the previous two types, which allows you to apply more strategies. There are plenty of options here, and the most popular ones are:

• Trixie – 3 events are selected and 4 bets are opened. Three double expresses and one treble. For example, in 1 coupon there are teams A and B, in 2 teams B and C, in 3 coupon A and B, and in the last coupon A, B and C.
• Patent – ​​a total of 7 bets open, 4 on Trixie and 3 more on each event separately (single bets).
• Yankee – 11 bets are made on 4 events, 6 double express bets, 4 triple express bets and one express bet on all events at once.

The last type of bet is used by experienced betters; beginners will simply get confused when using such systems. But you need to know about this, because over time you will have to improve your tactics.

Financial and gaming strategies for sports betting

Not only bets are divided by type, but also the tactics by which they are opened. There are a lot of criteria for dividing techniques, Therefore, we will consider only the main ones:

1. Financial strategies are intended for proper deposit management and can only indirectly relate to sports. They work on the rules of mathematics and probability theory. For example, with such strategies you need to increase your bets when you lose.
2. Gaming strategies are simplified techniques that take into account only sporting events and outcomes. For example, an obvious favorite of the game is selected and bets are placed on it. Another example: when a bet on the number of fouls is opened, where the forecast is based solely on statistics.
3. Live betting strategies – as the name suggests, they are intended for live betting, i.e. right during the match. A simple example - you are waiting for the match to start, the favorite gets a goal and the odds for his victory increase, you open a bet and get a larger win.
4. Pre-match bets – they are opened before the start of the game. This also has certain advantages. At a minimum, you don’t have to wait for the “right moment” and have a lot of time for analysis to make a competent forecast.
5. Long-term betting strategies – designed for the long term. As a rule, you have to spend a long time on the invested money to get a good profit. Most often, the risks in such tactics are minimal.

These are just some of the categories into which strategies for profitable sports betting are divided. They are classified according to various signs, starting from the level of profitability and risks, ending with attachment to certain sports.

8 Profitable Sports Betting Strategies

Most bookmaker betting strategies come from the gambling industry, so don't be surprised if you see some familiar tactics:

1. D'Alembert's tactics.
To multiply your capital using this strategy, you will need to allocate some kind of monetary unit. For example, your bank is $100, the optimal unit size will be $5-10. Analyze potentially winning outcomes and set the minimum bet (one unit).

If you win, set your bet one unit less (or the minimum bet); if you lose, on the contrary, increase your bet by the selected unit. Condition: the odds must be at least three, otherwise the technique may not be profitable.

2. Oscar Grind technique.
To begin, you will need to establish a specific bank, which will be the final point for the cycle. The cycle will consist of bets that will increase when you win and remain the same when you lose. Let's say your pot is $120, you select a $12 unit.

Bet $12 on some outcome; if you fail to win, make the same bet; if you lose, bet $24. Now your minimum bet becomes $24, so you start with it in case of your next loss.

Difficult to figure out? Maybe it will be easier for you to understand using the table (bank 100$, bet 10$):

The option is excellent, but you need to use it with a coefficient. not less than two.

3. Martingale and anti-Martingale.
The Martingale technique is the most popular in many games. The idea is to double your bets when you lose and return to the original amount when you win. Optimal coefficient for this strategy is equal to two. Let's say you start betting with $2. If you win, you use $2 again, if you lose, you set $4.

If you win, you need to return to $2, if you don’t win, set it to $8. If you lose again, you will need to double the bet amount again. It is very important that your bank is enough for at least 10 doublings of bets.

The reverse Martingale strategy is used in almost the same way, but the bet is inflated after winnings, and decreased when you lose. This technique is ideal for those who constantly win in streaks. Those. if you manage to identify a favorite who wins several games in a row, then you can continue to bet on him and use large amounts before losing.

The main disadvantage is large losses in case of loss at the end of the cycle. Therefore, timely “brakes” can be very helpful here, as well as deprive you of a solid profit.

4. Dogon technique.
This type of strategy is divided into two types: one-time catch-up and long catch-up. The idea is to highlight events that occur frequently but are not currently observed. Let's assume that some team always played in a draw, but now there are no such outcomes.

Most likely, this team will soon draw again, so we bet on this result and continue to do so until we win. There is no need to increase the amount; the odds on a draw will be slightly higher, so you will be able to cover expenses.

Long catch-up is different in that after winning you do not look for the next team, but continue to bet on the selected event and systematically win.

5. Technique for Live betting.
All bookmaker players have at least once used Live bets, which are launched during the match. This type of betting also has tricks that can help you make money.

The ideal situation for winning bets is when a weak team starts to win at the very beginning of the game or is on par with the favorite on points. How to proceed?

You choose a clear favorite and an outsider in the championship, and wait for them to play. The odds in such a game will vary greatly; if the favorite has odds of 1.01-1.11, then the odds for a weak team may be over 10. Let’s assume that you take 1,100 rubles and bet 100 rubles on a potentially losing team.

You wait until it takes the lead or evens the points, after which the odds of the winning team will definitely increase. For example, it increased to 1.2, now you bet a thousand on the favorite to win and wait for the match to end. If the weak team wins, you will receive 1100 (odds 11), if the favorite wins you will receive 1200 (odds 1.2), i.e. At least you're getting your money back.

6. Percentage of the starting bank.
The simplest technique, when you use it, you will never go bankrupt. You will be required to use a set percentage from the bank at all times. For example, you allocate $100, which you decide to play with. Set a certain percentage, for example, 20%.

Make your first bet of $20, you have $80 left, in case of loss, take 20% of the balance - $16 and continue the game. In most cases, this strategy is used as a basis; after some modifications, players receive a unique technique.

7. Flat strategy.
If you are a beginner and find it difficult to learn various strategies, then you can start with Flat. The essence of this strategy is simple - you need to make the same bets regardless of the bank and odds.

Managing your capital is difficult, but acting without a strategy is not smart. This technique is also often used as a base.

8. Danish strategy.
One interesting betting technique comes from Denmark, which is similar to Martingale. The only difference is that in parallel with increasing the bet amount, you will need to increase the odds. Again, we present you with a table to make it easier to understand:

There is no doubling required here, the bet is increased by the initial amount. If you win, as in the table (odds 3.5 and bet $50), you get a net profit of $25.

Each of these 8 strategies can be an ideal technique for betting in bookmakers. For these strategies to work, choose only proven projects; in the list, we presented several stable resources.

Sports betting and the most profitable strategies

The betting system appeared a long time ago, the most cunning bettors and mathematicians always tried to find an opportunity to identify the ideal formula that would allow them to win more often. Making money on sports betting is quite real, but in any case it will be associated with some risks, because unpredictable situations can affect the outcome of the match.

Our blog presents a new sports betting strategy - grow a piglet.

Many tactics are developed for betting, i.e. you need to open bets not on the victory of one or the other team, but choose additional outcomes (totals, draws, penalties, etc.). Each bettor decides for himself which sports betting systems to use, each with his own preferences.

Among the most popular we highlight:

1. The best sports betting strategy using totals.

You don't need to be a professional to use this tactic. It is enough to refer to the statistics, which are always available on the Internet (provided by the most famous bookmakers).

Totals can be higher or lower. These bets involve the total number of goals. For example, TB 1 means the total is more than 1 goal scored.

Strategy for betting on tennis, football and many other sports. To determine which total is more likely to be, you need to highlight the average goals. For example, in the Spanish league there are teams that score on average 1 goal. This means that the best option would be to bet on TB 2 or even 2.5 (so that the odds are higher).

Consider variations of this bet, because by analogy you can bet on the number of yellow cards, corners, offsides, and so on. The main thing is not to open them during the match (i.e. live), because the odds will decrease. Simple working strategy, but the odds for obvious totals are not high; you have to analyze the statistics for a long time to ensure a solid win.

1. A working strategy for betting on the correct score.

Beginners are sure that betting on the exact score is a lottery. In fact, experienced bettors actively use them. Why? Because the odds are high. Having carefully studied all the factors (the condition of the team, coaching staff, weather conditions, etc.), they build an approximate forecast.

For example, with high probability The score is expected to be 2:1. In this case, 3 bets are opened at once on the score 3:0, 3:1, and if at least one of them wins, the costs are covered. It will be difficult for beginners to use such tactics, because they need to engage in deep analysis and build their own forecast. But the winnings are impressive.

1. Live sports betting strategy.

True fans not only place bets, but also closely follow the matches. They need live sports betting strategies that are revealed during the game. The best of them is the tactic of betting on an unsuccessful favorite. The main thing is not to get confused and determine whether the team (athlete) will really be able to win back.

It should be used when there is an obvious favorite and an outsider. It is necessary to wait until the moment when a strong team begins to lose (misses a goal). The bookmaker will immediately adjust the odds; if the favorite wins, they will immediately rise and this will be best time to open a bet.

As with any other sports betting system, you need to use your head. Even strong teams lose, so you need to be sure that the favorite will still take the lead. Fits live strategy betting for any sport. Its main drawback is the long wait for the right moment.

1. The correct strategy for betting on accumulators at the end of the match.

During a serious tournament, several games are played in parallel. Using one of the clever methods, you can open express bets on totals at the end of the match. If this is football, then choose the appropriate totals at the 85th minute of the game. Just keep in mind that you will need to find at least 3 events.

After 85 minutes, the players no longer have the strength to launch full-fledged attacks, and the winning team will try to maintain the score (will focus on defense). Therefore, the situation is unlikely to change in the last 5 minutes. However, the odds for such totals will be scanty, which is why you need to open an express bet consisting of at least 3 events.

Bettors love this sports betting strategy because it allows them to make a profit quickly. The downside is that it is impossible to insure yourself. If the score changes in at least one game, the entire express will be lost. The main thing is not to bet on youth leagues, something unpredictable happens there too often.

1. Betting strategy with insurance.

This tactic is more suitable for those who closely follow the matches and make their own forecasts. You can never be 100% sure of the outcome, so it makes sense to play it safe. Professionals open several bets on one outcome at once in order to cover the loss in any case.

First, a forecast is made, for example, these are football matches, in which the underdog and the favorite have already been determined. You need to open express bets for several events at once in order to get bigger winnings or cover losses. You select several matches and place bets, for example:

• Team A win, Team A win, Team A win;
• Team A win, draw, team A win;
• draw, draw, draw;
• draw, draw, team A win.

Provided that the coefficient is not lower than 4, in any case you remain in the black. It is important to be confident in the favorites, because accumulators are opened only for their wins (or draws). An ideal option for betting on the World Cup when you are confident in the victory of a certain team.

1. The strategy for making money on sports betting is against draws.

No team is trying to play a draw, everyone wants to win, so a draw is extremely rare. Based on general statistics, in the TOP 5 leagues, a draw occurs during the entire tournament less often than 1 in 4, i.e. less than 25% of games end with someone leading. This is already a reason to open bets against a draw.

You need to open bets through betting; the odds are not always high, but you can win with a high probability. Just to use tactics you must adhere to some rules:

• the odds for a draw must be below 4;
• the odds for the favorite to win must be below 2;
• the lowest odds for totals of 2.5 and above.

If during a match the favorite takes the lead, it makes sense to bet a small amount on a draw, because the odds will rise and this will be an excellent safety net. If the score remains tied after 70 minutes of the match, cover your costs by opening an additional draw bet before the odds drop below 2.

1. xG model for football betting predictions.

An interesting formula was invented to calculate the expected goals scored by football players. Through it, it is possible to calculate how many goals will be scored in a match, and this is useful for betting on victory, totals and other bets. To apply the model, you will need to delve into statistics, especially on time of possession and number of shots on goal.

According to statistics, the winners are the teams that carry out more attacks and have more possession of the ball.

The strategy is complex, and you will have to do a lot of math to apply it. To make a forecast, you need to find out the average time of possession of the ball by both teams and the number of shots on goal. Based on these data, the average value is calculated. As a result, you get a specific forecast with the exact number of goals from each side of the competition:

If you are not good at mathematics, you will definitely encounter difficulties. This system for sports betting cannot be described in a nutshell, so we added a video. For example, we tried to calculate xG for one of the matches and got a probability of goals scored of 1.44 for team A and 1.53 for team B. With such results, we can safely open the total to more than 3.

1. Catch-up strategy in sports betting.

This strategy is especially popular among tennis fans, where players quickly play out points. In some ways it is similar to Martingale, because you need to progressively increase the bet size. This must be done after each point received, so the tactic is suitable for Live betting.

The most important thing is that the odds must be higher than 2, otherwise there is no point in placing bets, the costs will not be covered.

First you need to determine minimum size rates. It’s better to take 20 of the bank, so that it’s definitely enough for several bet increases. Next, we find a suitable betting match in which bets are accepted on 1, 2, 3 and subsequent points. We begin to place bets on the server.

Example:

• Score 0:15 (1 point) – the bet of 20 cents did not work, we increase it 2 times.
• Score 0:30 (2 points) – the bet of 40 cents did not work, we increase it 2 times.
• Score 0:45 (3 points) – the bet of 80 cents did not work, we increase it 2 times.

Players change places, then we bet on the same player. You need to continue to increase your bets until you win, let’s assume you managed to win in a draw of 4 points, you already bet $1.6, and with odds of 2 you won $3.2. As a result, the total expenses were 0.2 + 0.4 + 0.8 + 1.6 = $3, and the winnings were $3.2.

A simple example with a small winning amount. If the amount was larger, then the profit would become more substantial. Here everyone decides for themselves which bank to start with and what minimum bet to set. After receiving the winnings, you can continue to apply the catch-up strategy in sports betting, but you need to start over (with the minimum bet).

1. A proven strategy for betting on favorites.

One of the most simple techniques, because it is a game. It must be supplemented with financial tactics (for example, martingale). What's the point? You need to look for matches with obvious favorites and bet on their victory only if the odds range from 1.45 to 1.65.

Some will say that if you choose a lower odds, the probability of winning will be higher. But in this case, the amount will become smaller, and over a long distance this can lead to large losses. Any beginner will be able to determine the favorite, just look at the odds in bookmakers.

The strategy of betting on favorites is more suitable for tennis; experienced bettors have already calculated that the most rare moments here are when the obvious favorite loses to an outsider. With a competent approach, after the 2nd bet you remain in the black, but we must not forget about risks and margins; catching odds of about 1.5 on a clear favorite is not so easy.

1. Lineouts are a winning sports betting strategy.

This tactic is used in different sports, most often in basketball. The trick is to be able to cover the costs or at least keep them to a minimum. It is necessary to open totals for the number of goals scored by both teams. Handicap betting is used for this, and for everything to work, you need to look for suitable odds in different bookmakers.

To explain in simple terms, the bet is on TB 3.5 and TM 2.5. Thus, the probability of winning becomes maximum, but it will be difficult to find bookmakers who will offer decent odds for such outcomes.

Let's imagine that one bookmaker offers a bet with a -5.5 handicap on team A, odds 1.5. Here we open a bet on team B with a handicap of +5.5. In the second bookmaker, the handicap is zero for both teams (there is no clear favorite), we open a bet with odds of 1.6 on team A.

To successfully apply this system, you need to constantly monitor statistics, be closely involved in forecasts and have a good understanding of the chosen sport. The downside of the tactic is that you have to open bets at different bookmakers.

Carefully study the rules for sports forecasts; they will be useful for applying any of the strategies.

In addition to the methods presented, there are many more alternatives. Betters come up with something new, some even sell their original creations. Don't buy them because in most cases, they are just a slightly modernized popular strategy. It’s better to invest money in gaining experience and start making bets; over time, you yourself will be able to improve or combine them.

Bookmaker sure bets are a win-win sports betting strategy.

There is a clever way to make a profit from bookmakers, in which risks are completely eliminated. Each bookmaker independently calculates the odds, so there are situations when you can open overlapping bets in different bookmakers and be guaranteed to get a win, although it will be small.

We talked about sure bets in bookmakers in a separate article and also presented free service to find them.

To help you understand how this works, let's present a simple example. By using special service we found a plug on the football match. The odds for the victory of the first team are 1.51, and the odds for the second team are 3.05, but at different bookmakers:

The total bet amount chosen was $100. The service calculated that you need to open two bets at $66.89 and $33.11 in two bookmakers. Income is presented in the last column, regardless of the outcome of the match, you receive 0.99-1 dollar. The amount is small, but the winnings are guaranteed. If you decide to use win-win strategy bets, round up the bet amount because arbs are prohibited, it is better not to attract attention to yourself.

The main disadvantage of forks is the need to register with different bookmakers, some of them are not licensed and are not stable. Plus, you will have to replenish your balances with decent amounts, otherwise the income will be too low.

This example shows a sure bet with an income of only 1%; you can find conditions in which you can earn up to 10%. If you find an option with a higher percentage, it is either a mistake or they are trying to deceive you. Bookmaker sure bets are a long-term sports betting strategy and should be used with extreme caution.

Secrets of successful and profitable sports betting

Learning betting strategy is only half the battle. If you plan to make consistent money from bookmakers, you need to learn at least the basic rules and learn from the experience of professionals. To make it more convenient for you, We have collected recommendations from experienced bettors from the forums:

1. Don’t count on luck and when you see attractive odds, don’t rush to open a bet. Making money on sports betting requires cold calculation.
2. Learn to correctly evaluate different factors. The fact that a team has climbed high in the standings does not mean that it will remain a favorite in the next matches. Injuries, suspensions and much more can affect a team.
3. There are no win-win strategies for betting on sports; train yourself to correctly assess the chances. If the probability of the outcome is 80%, that's already good.
4. Check weather forecasts because this affects the outcome. Snow or rain can force a team to play with the “don’t miss a goal” strategy. Those. they will go on the defensive and will not attack aggressively.
5. Carefully study the statistics and pay attention small details. For example, the disqualification of a “strong” defender can become a hole in the team’s defense.
6. You need to monitor not only team statistics, but also general indicators. For example, teams lose away more often, and if they manage to score at least 1 goal, they will try to finish the game without risks.
7. Don’t rush to open bets, it’s better to do it rarely than to miss out important points and lose money.
8. It is better not to add outcomes with odds higher than 1.85 to express bets, because the probability is too low. It is also better not to consider outcomes with odds below 1.09; it is simply pointless to take risks for such profits.
9. Be extremely careful when betting on games of little importance (friendly matches). Too often they end unexpectedly.
10. If you decide to open express bets, then add 2-3 events to them, otherwise the chances of winning will be too small. Use systems if necessary.

Every bet on sports should be deliberate, because your goal is to make money, and not just enjoy using the services of a bookmaker. No matter how good your strategy is, there is still some risk.

Winning sports betting strategies really help you make money through bookmakers, just don't overestimate them. There is no magic universal formula by which you can always calculate the outcome of every match. You should still have your head on your shoulders, and the more useful knowledge it contains, the better.

Success in sports betting is not alchemy or magic. There is nothing supernatural about this, there is nothing that every betting fan cannot master. Those who consistently win against the bookmaker from those who consistently lose are distinguished by only two simple but extremely important things: the presence of correctly selected strategies and iron self-discipline.

Sports betting as a way to make money

Most novice bettors treat gambling solely as a hobby that can bring in several tens or hundreds of dollars from time to time. They take the matter lightly, do not disdain superficial analysis and even allow themselves so-called “support bets” - bets in support of their favorite team (less often this takes the form of bets against it - in this case there is a phantom feeling that the player is not losing anything).

This approach is fundamentally wrong. Let's consider short stories three bettors who made a fortune from sports betting.

1. Bob Voulgaris After a fundamental analysis of bookmakers’ lines, I noticed that many bookmakers take a frivolous approach to determining the total points in NBA matches. His successes provoked a complication of the line formation mechanisms, but Vulgaris found a fellow programmer and wrote a program that destroyed bookmakers for two years.

Bill Walters

What do these people's stories teach us? The fact that you can turn betting into the main way of making money, supporting yourself and your family. But the seriousness of the approach to organizing the betting process itself decides how successful this or that player will be. Luck certainly exists, but it smiles on those who know the formula by which it works.

Tip #1: If you are not confident that you can devote at least five hours a day to searching for information, analyzing it, comparing facts and assessing risks, do not try to build a career as a professional bettor.

Tip #2: If you are completely confident in your decision to become a professional, choose one to three sports in which you will specialize. Optimally - two. This will not allow efforts to be scattered. After that, outline a number of factors that seem significant when assessing any fight, read - universal. Save this list and edit it as you gain experience. After some time, you will have several versions of this list, each of which will be tailored to the game through a specific betting strategy.

This is explained by the fact that some factors (for example, injuries) play absolutely no role in certain (usually mathematical) strategies, but are important elements in working on other gaming formulas.

Sports betting gaming strategies

Gaming strategies are those that allow you to either optimize bets as much as possible, increase the probability of their “passing”, as well as strategies that use “catch-up”.

"Dogon"- one of the classic strategies that is already extremely popular for a long time. Its essence can be illustrated quite with a simple algorithm:

1. An event with odds of 2.00 or higher is selected, a conditional bet is placed 10 $;

2. If the bet is “passed”, we select the next event with the same or higher odds and bet the same amount. If the bet does not go through, we select the next event with the same or higher odds, and bet the amount twice as much - 20 $;

3. If the bet is “passed”, we return to the amount from step 1. If not, we double it;

4. The sequence is repeated until the first win, which automatically rolls back the bet amount to the original one.

This is the most simple version this strategy. It has many modifications - « soft catch up» , "Martingale" and others.

Martingale strategy

There is no point in going through all the existing gaming models and sports betting strategies - this will not bring any real benefit to the reader.

But The algorithm below will help organize betting activities so that it brings maximum effect with minimum error:

• It is necessary to analyze the betting results of a particular player for all strategies that he has used since the beginning of his professional activity, and then highlight up to five of the most successful ones.
• Each of these five (or fewer) strategies is also analyzed - separately by sport, according to the criterion “bet on favorites\underdogs\draw\combined”, after which the most profitable models of the bettor’s work are identified
• A selection is made by teams or individual athletes - on whom the gambler most often bets, what percentage of predictions for the team or athlete turn out to be correct/incorrect, after which 50% of the athletes/teams with the lowest pass rate are temporarily removed from the betting field.

These three steps should be repeated from time to time in order to analyze the player's performance as accurately as possible and revise the playing style and strategies. After some time, only those formulas, teams and athletes that bring maximum profit and minimize risks will remain in the bettor’s field of activity.

Advice: analysis of the situation on the sports field is important, but the correct organization of the player’s work is often much more important. Don't neglect the opportunity to improve your own performance.

Mathematical Sports Betting Strategies

Mathematical strategies are based on statistical data and work with them, since they can directly or indirectly affect the future results of a team or a specific athlete.

Thus, one of the indicative strategies is "Flat", which will be profitable with a bet pass rate of no less than 52.4%. This strategy stipulates that the better will bet no more than 10% of the bank on each outcome with odds of no less than 1.7. In this case, profit will be guaranteed over the long term. But there are two important caveats:

1. The strategy is only suitable for those who correctly predict at least 52.4% of their bets;

2. You will have to play on handicaps and totals, otherwise the strategy loses some of its effectiveness due to the possibility of a third outcome (a draw option is added to yes/no).

Live strategy - what is it?

Playing in live mode has a number of features that make this type of betting a separate craft, often no less profitable than forecasting before the start of a fight. Live strategies are based on real and potential changes in the situation, as well as an assessment of immediate risks.

Let's consider an example with a classic live strategy called "protective live fork» . It is quite well suited for starting to get acquainted with similar gaming techniques.

Barcelona plays Celta Vigo on the home field. The guests here are clear outsiders, and the Catalans at home very often score more than two goals to their opponents. Most likely, the bookmakers will set a plus handicap indicator for Celta of 2.5 before the match with a coefficient of 1.9. What are the player's actions?

1. Before the start of the match, a bet is placed on the guests' plus handicap of a conditional $10
2. Barcelona scores an early goal (before the 30th minute), the line changes. Now bookmakers are offering Celta with F (+3.5) for the same odds of 1.9. The better bets the same $10
3. After each next Barcelona goal, a “defensive” bet is made on the outsider’s plus handicap, provided that the odds are not significantly different or do not differ from the original ones - that is, 1.9. As a rule, quotes change extremely rarely.
4. Barcelona wins 4:0. The player has made five bets at this point - on f (+2.5), f (+3.5), f (+4.5), f (+5.5) and f (+6.5).

Of the five bets, the last three were played. With a total bet of $50, the player receives (1.9x10)+(1.9x10)+(1.9x10) $57 - that is, 14%.

Advice: You should monitor live odds in several bookmakers at once, then you can insure yourself against unexpected losses of funds due to odds adjustments by one or more bookmakers.

Live strategies work for other sports too. For example, in tennis, with proper skill, the “Break from the Favorite” works effectively.

Milos Raonic, a top 10 player, plays in the Masters against a player in the top 15 to top 30 range - Leonardo Mayer, in this case. Mayer is the man for this strategy because he serves well and the bookmakers, based on statistics, have confidence in his serves. The odds for Raonic breaking Mayer's serve will definitely be more than 2.00.

This strategy requires you to use no more than 25% of the total pot throughout the entire match.

1. Raonic serves first, Mayer second. A bet is placed on Raonic breaking Mayer's serve. 10 $
2. Raonic doesn't make a break, the bet on a break in the 4th game doubles - that is, 20 $
3. Raonic makes a break in the fourth game, bet on a break in the sixth game - 10 $
4. Raonic does not make a break, bet on a break in the 8th game - 20 $
5. Raonic does not make a break, bet on a break in the 10th game - 40 $
6. Raonic breaks

After one set with total investments in 100 $ the player receives 120 $ - 20% of investment. This strategy obliges the player to constantly have sufficient reserves to insure the next bets.

Is there a win-win sports betting strategy?

If there were one or more win-win sports betting strategies, most likely, bookmakers would move from the category of business projects to the category of charitable foundations. There are no win-win strategies, but there are those that can provide greater or less profitability, those that are more or less effective for specific cases, those that are easier or more difficult to implement. A successful bettor is forced to maneuver between them, constantly improving his skills, juggling methods, information, his own skills and critical thinking.

Sports betting is real work, which, with the right approach, will bear fruit. From the better All you need is the following:

• Hone your forecaster skills;
• Choose the most effective field of activity;
• Learn to choose the most profitable strategies in specific cases.

Sports betting is a game or gambling entertainment that allows a person to receive both one-time and regular passive income. Sports betting strategies involve the player acting according to a certain system and depositing a sum of money in favor of one or another outcome of the event, which, in the event of a probable coincidence, will bring a win predetermined by the bookmaker.

The amount of income is determined based on those set by the bookmaker. Only beginners or people who intend to get a one-time win and perceive it as entertainment and fun can afford to place bets on sports at random.

In the case of beginners, playing at random is a deliberately losing position. People who decide to make money professionally from betting must understand how to do it correctly in order to constantly remain in the black.

How to make money on sports betting - strategies

Any activity must have a clear plan before being implemented. The field of sports betting is no exception. A certain method of placing bets is called a strategy. Having a well-thought-out winning strategy, the player will definitely reach the intended goal. What sports betting strategies are there? Let's take a closer look.

Correct Score Betting Strategy

An interesting strategy that is widely used in football betting. Opinions about this strategy among professionals are mixed: some believe that such a technique does not make any sense; others are of the opinion that if used correctly, the probability of winning is quite high. The odds for these bets are among the highest.

The problem is that predicting the outcome of a match is quite difficult - to do this you need to know all the statistics on the games and understand them.

Not every team is suitable for betting on this strategy. You need to carefully analyze the statistics and understand which club or team you should give preference to.

Let's give an example. Turin Juventus, playing in the Italian Serie A, plays in the best traditions of catenaccio (a defensive scheme with a huge number of tactical fouls), quite often winning with a score of 1:0.

Pay attention to the team's performances in February-March 2018:

It can be seen that out of the last eight matches, Juventus won three times against their opponents with a score of 1:0. Usually the bookmaker offers high rates for this type of bet (more than 5.0).

If a player constantly bet a certain amount of money on this outcome, he would be left with a good win.

Whether you prefer this betting strategy or not is up to you, but you must remember that you can only increase your chances of winning if you choose a match with expected low results. It is better not to consider teams that score a lot of goals per game, since guessing the exact score in the match is problematic.

• The advantage of this working strategy in account betting is the large amount offered by the bookmaker. Even with several defeats, the winnings will cover the losses and bring profit.
• The main disadvantage of the strategy is that if you do the wrong analysis and choose the wrong team, you will find yourself at a deep disadvantage.

Total betting strategy

One of the most common bets is a bet on For example, in football matches, the bookmaker offers to bet on over or under 2.5 goals. If the player chooses more and the teams together score 3 or more goals in the match, then he wins. If the match ended with the score 0:0, 1:0, 1:1 or 2:0, it means that the bookmaker played “less” and won. This system is used to determine winnings for other sports.

If a player intends to make a stable profit using bets on more, then he needs to:

• Find championships in which teams score a lot of goals. They are easy to identify if you look at the statistics.
• Determine the most scoring and conceding clubs. If you choose the first teams you come across, there is a high probability of defeat.
• Evaluate their performance over a certain period of time. Even consistently scoring clubs have downturns due to injury or poor form of their main scorers. Perhaps the team has a new coach who changes the scheme or style of play.
• Pay attention to the weather conditions on the day of the match. Unsatisfactory weather does not contribute to the huge number of goals scored. It's quite difficult to create when there is mud or snow everywhere. Consider this factor when betting on football, tennis or baseball, since hockey and basketball matches are not dependent on the weather.
• Analyze bookmaker odds from the point of view of attractiveness. Bookmaker analysts know their stuff, so they can significantly underestimate the top matches. Bets on them may not be profitable.

There are quite a lot of championships that are suitable for a player. These are all divisions of the championships of Holland, Iceland, the Danish Super League, the Welsh Premier League, etc. Experts recommend betting on the “top games” in these leagues. Among the countries in the top 5 championships, you can pay attention to the German Bundesliga.

For example, in the 2017 Icelandic Championship, even the main outsider scored an average of 2.6 goals per game. The championship is perfect for both betting and express betting.

It cannot be taken for “top” bets on the championships of Russia, Greece, Italy, France. An exception may be matches in which a clear favorite and an outsider meet. The scores in such games can be devastating.

If you watch the matches involving the middle peasants from the Dutch and Greek championships, the difference in playing styles is visible after just 15 minutes of watching the broadcast. Here you can and should place bets live.

In the Dutch championship, the ball practically does not stay in the center of the field, but constantly ends up near the penalty area, which leads to an abundance of dangerous moments and goals. In Greek Super League matches there is a lot of struggle in the center of the field and goals scored are a rarity.

Flaws:

The main disadvantage of the TB strategy is that bookmakers are well aware of leagues in which a lot of goals are scored and significantly underestimate the odds for totals greater than 2.5. Some simply refuse to accept bets on these events.

You can pay attention to bets on totals over 3.5. There are quite a lot of clubs that demonstrate high performance. For example, consider the statistics of the first division of the Dutch championship.

The table shows that a number of teams achieve the top total in more than 51% of matches. Bookmakers set odds for such bets that exceed 2.0. This means that if you choose the right club, the player is guaranteed to be in the black.

The second division of the Danish Championship is more promising for this strategy.

Another significant disadvantage is the limited amount of information about teams in the lower divisions. While looking at the forecasted weather is not difficult, getting information regarding injuries to football players, disagreements between partners, or the unsatisfactory form of certain performers is quite problematic.

Fork betting strategy

This strategy is a win-win strategy. A fork is not even a strategy, but a search for distortions in bookmaker lines. Its essence is as follows: bookmakers offer different odds for one event. The player’s task is to place bets on opposite outcomes of a given sporting event at different bookmakers and, due to the difference in odds, receive a guaranteed profit.

Theoretically, the strategy is very attractive. But in practice, detecting a fork will require a lot of time and effort. A player can sit near the computer for several days, looking through a huge amount of information, but still not find a fork.

Nowadays, a huge number of different, often home-written, programs are sold on the Internet that analyze bookmaker odds and identify arbs, thanks to which you can earn money in any sport.

The main advantage of the strategy is that the player receives a certain amount of money for any outcome of the event.

Offices don’t like arbers, so they make their lives as difficult as possible.

Flaws:

• Bookmakers monitor arbers and reduce their betting limits. Professionals in this case use the expression “cut an account.”
• The rules of any office contain a clause according to which it has the right to cancel any bet. Bookmakers actively take advantage of this. They make a payout with 1.0, which causes the fork to fail. But that is not all. After such an outcome, the system automatically adds you to the list of suspicious players. From now on, your account will be under surveillance.
• It happens that the selected odds change before you even place a bet. This happens because bookmaker analysts noticed the fork and made appropriate adjustments. Profitable arbs often last only a few seconds.
• Any office charges a commission for withdrawing funds. It must be taken into account when calculating the fork.
• Sometimes unforeseen situations arise. For example, if a team or athlete is unable to continue playing or a sporting event is suspended due to unsatisfactory weather conditions. Some bookmakers pay out with odds of 1.0, while others count the player a loss. Therefore, to avoid a sad outcome, you must carefully read the rules.
• The bookmaker simply blocks the account and the amount of money in the account if it finds out that the player is using forks. In this case, it is not possible to return the money.

Experienced players do not attract attention to themselves and have been making money for years using the fork strategy. That is why this technique can be called a win-win sports betting strategy.

Time Match Betting Strategy

The strategy is as follows: the player needs to determine the results of the first half and the entire game. Systems and express bets are often used here. To make a profit, they choose a competition between an outsider and a favorite.

Statistically, the winner of the first half often wins the match. Bookmaker analysts are well aware of this, which is why they set underestimated odds.

For example, in the Spanish Example, Eibar and Real Madrid play. The bookmaker offers a P2P2 bet with odds of 2.1. If you bet 1,000 rubles and Los Blancos win the first half and the match, then the player receives 1,100 rubles in net profit.

But experts advise taking out insurance in case of unforeseen situations. It is better to divide the bet into two outcomes: bet 500 rubles on P2P2 (odds – 2.1) and 500 on HP2 (odds – 4.4). If the favorite wins in the first half and throughout the match, then the profit will be 50 rubles, and if the outsider does not lose before the break, but Real eventually wins, then the profit will be 1,200 rubles.

The presented strategy requires a thorough analysis of statistics and understanding of football, so it is more suitable for professionals than for novice players. Various variations of this technique are possible.

Advantage - high odds.

Disadvantage: the strategy is quite risky. If you make a mistake in choosing a pair, you can lose the entire pot.

Card betting and removal strategy

Red cards are used in the following sports: football, handball, bandy and rugby.

Yellow cards – in football and handball. In rugby, a player who receives a yellow card must leave the field for 10 minutes.

Typically, this working strategy is used to bet on the most popular game on the planet - football.

To successfully apply this strategy, you need to be able to analyze and know about the playing styles of certain players. It is necessary to carefully study the intra-team atmosphere: relationships, hostility, friendship, etc. Look at the statistics - there are numbers on the average number of mustard plasters and deletions for each player.

Before betting, pay attention to some indicators:

Football players. If there is a player on the team who is different scandalous reputation, regularly commits boorish antics or plays dirty, then you can place a bet. In modern football there are enough performers who are distinguished by their explosive character. In each championship there will be 10-15 iron lumberjacks. Here are some of them: Besic, Felipe Melo, Chambers, Fuego, Colback, Clarke, Flamini, Fritz, Iborra, Tettey. McLean, Pinzi, Coulibaly, Matic, Mauricio, Cabay, Ivanovic, De Rossi, Iturra and others. These football players are either provocateurs and rude people, or emotionally unstable people, or watchdogs for position on the field.

Arbitrators. Much depends on the judges. Some react more loyally to violations, others punish for every little thing. It is necessary to carefully study the statistics of each referee. It is equally important to watch the games yourself and analyze each match. If the referee shows three or four yellow cards in a meeting, but in one he was forced to take out the mustard plaster 14 times, then the statistics will be significantly distorted.

Each of the top 5 championships has referees who prefer a certain style of refereeing:

Principal rivals. Matches between sworn enemies usually take place in a stubborn and tough fight, which often goes beyond what is permitted. To calm passions, the referees have to show the players yellow and red cards. Rarely does a derby between principal rivals take place without a large number of mustard plasters.

Catch-up betting strategy

The strategy was previously very widely used in football, but later it took root well in betting on other sports. To play profitably with this working strategy, you need to have a good bank and patience.

A successful strategy involves the player constantly doubling his bet in case of a loss. Even a long series of failures will bring him profit in the end. For a winning strategy, you must choose odds of at least 2.0. Ideal if they are even higher.

Professionals often use this strategy. They choose one of the teams and catch up with the draw. For example, we see that after several victories, Juventus of Turin played a draw in the Champions League with Tottenham. We skip three matches and place a bet of 1000 rubles on the return match against the Londoners. The Italians are winning again, so in the match with Udinese it is necessary to increase the amount to 2000 rubles - again a failure. The next bet on a draw in the match with Atalanta will be 4,000 rubles, but Juve wins again, and we continue to play. In the match with SPAL, we are already betting 8,000 rubles on a draw with odds of 4.5.

The match ends in a goalless draw - our bet wins.

Let's calculate the profit: 8000*4.5 =36000 – 8000 (our bet) – 7000 (lost bets) = 21,000 rubles of net profit.

If the player has sufficient funds and endurance, then this is a winning strategy for him. Due to the possible significant investment, it is usually used by professionals. But you shouldn’t deny the option of luck, so even beginners can win in this winning strategy after just two or three bets.

This is a strategy with minimal risk if you strictly adhere to the rules. Sooner or later the command will produce the required result.

Flaws:

• The main disadvantage of this winning strategy is the need to increase the bet until you win. If a player incorrectly calculates his own strength, then his money will run out before he sees a positive outcome.
• This working strategy also has another drawback - a long distance. Some players lead their chosen team for several months before achieving a positive result.

Parlay betting strategy

Express bets are a very attractive and profitable type of bet. After all, the odds that the player chooses are multiplied among themselves. Let's look at the most popular express betting strategies.

The first is a rather banal subtype of the express betting strategy. Its meaning is as follows: the user forms express bets from a certain number of events, after which, to be on the safe side, he places other express bets so that for each outcome one of them wins.

• The first express is P1, P1.
• The second express is P2, P2.
• Third express - P1, P2.
• The fourth express train is P2, P1.

Even an express bet for two events must be insured with three others. If it will be larger number rates? Naturally, it is impossible to take into account all possible options.

The second strategy for betting on express bets looks like this: imagine a situation where three matches have been found, the outcome of which you are absolutely sure of. main feature– it is necessary that the match times be different. After one win, you need to bet on the opposite event indicated in the original express bet. We bet singles until all the matches from the express bet are over.

This proven strategy allows you to win in any case. Even if the profit is small, the very fact of win-win is certainly attractive. Express bets are used as a basic lever that allows you to hope for high odds. Everything else is mathematical calculations. An express bet can have an arbitrary number of events. This will bring much greater profits. The main thing is that the player has enough funds to gradually close all positions.

How to make a win-win bet at a bookmaker

Sports betting strategies are thoughtful betting techniques for professional players. Some of them are riskier and are suitable for players who love excitement, others are conservative, but bring stable profits. Thanks to working strategies, your chances of winning significantly increase. Using various betting methods, you do not act blindly, but are guided by certain mathematical algorithms.

But remember that the main thing in any strategy is strict adherence to the rules. If you deviate from your plan, you will definitely lose money. And it doesn’t matter at all what type of bets you prefer: express bets or system bets. The result will be disappointing.

The best sports betting strategies will help you gain an edge over the bookmaker and always stay in the black.

The most popular sports betting strategies among bettors

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of similar plans that help bettors place bets and win. But how effective are they all? Is it worth spending time and money to study each such plan and see how good it is? To make it easier for you in choosing the best way to make money by making deals with bookmakers, we have collected in this article some of the best and most worthy strategies that can be used for different sports. And we got a kind of TOP-8:

1. Dogon. Ideal for bettors mediocre who are no longer beginners, but at the same time, have not yet become real pros. It is built on the ability to keep calculations and attentiveness.
2. Time matches. A fairly simple strategy that allows even beginners to make good profits at the most modest costs.
3. Outcomes. An excellent betting option that beginners will definitely like due to its simplicity and simplicity.
4. Totals. Most bettors like to use this plan for only two possible outcomes of the event, which significantly increases the chances of winning, with detailed analysis match, duel or meeting, of course.
5. Account. Many pros call this strategy ideal for beginners, since it is not too complicated and at the same time quite profitable.
6. Corridors. A relatively understandable and affordable (both in terms of time and financial costs) strategy that can be used by absolutely all clients of bookmakers.
7. Value Betting. This mathematical strategy should be recommended to all lovers of accurate calculations and detailed analysis of the bookmaker line, odds size and other important nuances.
8. Playing forks. This method can only be used if you place a bet in at least two bookmakers at once. But this strategy will bring stable profits due to small, but constant winnings.
9. Express systems. The method allows, by creating various combinations of express bets, to bring the player closer to an outcome that is positive for his capital.

However, you should not focus on the place of strategy in this rating. You can use any of them at your discretion, but remember that most of them bring good profits only in the long term.

A more detailed description of each strategy:

1. Dogon strategy

The idea behind this plan is to bet on the same event until the outcome you predict happens. That is why this strategy is ideal for live betting, when the bettor constantly monitors what is happening in the sports arena.

It works like this. For example, you are watching a football match and bet on one team to win by one goal. If everything goes perfectly, then you won’t need to use catch-up. If your favorite starts to lose, simply bet twice as much on the victory of the other team, but twice as much to cover the losses from the previous bet that no longer played. But you need to stop in time (as a last resort, you can use catch-up in another match and catch up in the next event), otherwise you risk losing your entire bank.

2. Time Match Strategy

This strategy is based on betting not only on the outcome of the event as a whole, but also on the completion of its first half (half, several sets, period, etc.). If you manage your funds wisely, you can hit a good jackpot, especially if you bet on a draw in the first part of the game. After all, in the same football, the first halves very often end with parity, even novice clients of bookmakers know this.

3. Strategists Exodus

This strategy is considered one of the simplest and is ideal for both real pros and novice amateurs. It consists of a basic analysis of the upcoming sporting event, identifying a clear favorite (or, in the absence of one, betting on a draw) and betting on his victory. The main disadvantage of this plan can be considered the rather modest odds that most bookmakers give in the presence of a clear leader in the upcoming pair of opponents.

4. Total strategy

The meaning of this strategy, understandable and accessible to everyone, is based on the fact that with this option of concluding transactions with a bookmaker, you don’t have to delve into analytics or mathematical calculations. It is enough to bet on the outcome more or less than the value offered by the office.

For example, most bookmakers give totals of approximately 2.5 for football matches, from 180 to 210 for basketball matches, and from four and a half to six and a half for hockey matches. Thus, having approximately estimated the difference in the class of opponents and their usual number of goals conceded and scored per match, you can immediately place a bet. It is worth noting that bookmakers offer the best odds for totals to betters before the start of the event, so try to place such bets as usual, and not live.

5. Score Strategy

Most beginners biasedly consider the strategy of betting on the score to be very difficult, since predicting the exact result of a sporting event is very difficult even for real professionals. In fact, this is far from the case. For example, most football matches ends in a zero draw (or 1:1), or a victory of one of the teams with a lead of one, maximum two goals. So it’s enough to bet on just a few options for ending the match, based on the team’s statistics. And winning one of, say, three concluded transactions will definitely cover all expenses and leave you with a good profit. Especially considering the fact that this type of bet in most bookmakers will please bettors with very high odds.

6. Strategy Corridors

In some English-language sources, this strategy is usually called middles (from English middles). The meaning of corridors is to place two bets in different bookmakers on the same event, the overall result of which will lead to at least a return of the funds spent on bets. And in the best case, it will allow you to make good money.

For example, you place a bet at two different bookmakers on a basketball game. In one of them you have a coefficient equal to two, with a handicap of minus four and a half. And another bookmaker accepted your bet with the same odds for the other team to win, but with a handicap of plus five and a half. As a result, no matter which club wins, in the worst case, you will lose the amount in one office that you win in another. If the bets in both bookmakers work out, you get an excellent profit. The main thing in such a strategy is to calculate everything correctly and fit into this very corridor.

7. Value Betting Strategy, also called by some domestic betters with the slang word valui.

The essence of this strategy is to study the BC line, detailed analysis and search for so-called underestimated events. It is on them that some bookmakers offer odds that are too high, if you take into account the probability of the outcome you want and other factors.

In an example it looks like this. You know for sure that a certain club wins every third game away from home. And the bookmaker gives odds of 3.3 for this team to win. Now you only need to bet one dollar on three matches of this club outside the walls of your home stadium to win three dollars and thirty cents.

In reality, everything is a little more complicated, but after gaining a little experience, you can have a stable, although not entirely large, profit from almost every cycle of several bets.

8. Playing forks - arbitrage situations

The meaning of this strategy comes down to searching for at least two events, betting on which you will in any case win or at least break even. Many experts call arbs a win-win strategy in the sense that you will in any case get more than you spend on bets. At the same time, remember that for such not entirely fair play in several offices at the same time (if you bet on opposite outcomes from one account), you may be denied access to personal account forever...

A few words about financial strategies

In addition to those described above gaming strategies, there are still a huge number of their analogues, which are much more related to financial management. Such plans are designed for the correct distribution of the bank, calculation of the maximum permissible rates and other important nuances related to your money.

In general, there are almost the same number of financial strategies as gaming ones. And you shouldn’t disdain them either, since, for example, such popular options as flat or the Kelly system will help you save and increase your assets much faster!

Choosing the optimal system for playing in bookmakers

Returning to the question of strategies and tactics when placing bets in a bookmaker (previously on our resource you could read material about two out of three systems and the like), it is simply impossible not to talk about a number of popular ways to get rich when placing bets. It’s worth noting right away that some of them are not designed to generate fabulous profits, but, first of all, to reduce their own losses at the expense of those who did not place bets.

In any case, if you want to consistently earn money from bookmakers, and not just give them your money, this material will be useful to you, regardless of whether you consider yourself a real pro or are a complete beginner in betting. Let's move on to the description and operating principles of each of the currently popular methods for playing bookmakers. And we’ll create a unique

TOP 10 most popular tactics and systems:

Flat

This system is based on the principles of equal bet amounts, which the better will not change under any circumstances. That is, the player must always bet on a certain fixed amount, even if he really wants to bet almost all his savings on the next sure bet. The nuance is that with capital growth you will be able to use more than one event for one event. large sums, if you learn how to properly manage your capital.

It works as follows. Let's say you have one thousand rubles that you are ready to spend at a bookmaker's office. Place bets equal to five percent of your total capital. That is, always make a bet for fifty rubles. And as soon as your capital grows due to winnings, you can increase this same amount, but in percentage terms it should remain the same. That is, having earned five hundred rubles, you will be able to bet seventy-five rubles, the same five percent of one and a half thousand.

Flat was originally developed several decades ago and has been successfully used in many gambling games. Its main advantages include the virtual absence of the possibility of losing all the money, the presence of stability for the bettor, as well as the ability to adjust the plan and tactics during the betting process, without changing the rules of the method itself. Among the disadvantages, it is worth noting the low rate of capital growth and the high chances of system failure due to the desire to bet more than the established limit.

Fixed interest strategy

In some ways this system is similar to flat trading. It should also determine the size of the bet, but this is not done in advance, but before each specific bet. This approach gives you a chance to make a profit much faster than the same flat. But when large series If you have not played bets, you will have to try hard, otherwise it will not be easy to return the starting capital. But, despite the fact that before each bet you will have to spend a little time recalculating its size, this method works and helps you get a modest but stable income.

Fixed Income Strategy

The peculiarity of this method is to select the same winning size for each bet. That is, when making a bet with odds of 2.0, you will need to bet a hundred to win the same amount. At the same time, to get the same hundred rubles at odds of 3.0, it will be enough to bet fifty. Moreover, all calculations take no more than a minute; just subtract one from the odds and divide the amount you would like to win by the resulting number.

The only problem is that with this approach it is not easy to predict the growth or reduction of the starting capital, which (especially after several unsuccessful bets in a row) will decrease by an as yet unknown amount. But when good deals you can easily determine the number of banknotes in your capital.

Martingale method

The main feature of this approach is to raise the amount after each failure so that the profit from a new bet won with a bookmaker covers the previous failure. We usually call this method catch-up. With high risks of losing all the money (if a real black streak begins), the better receives a stable income not only in the long term, but also in the medium term.

Anti-Martingale method

A completely opposite system to the one described above. Its meaning is to reduce all subsequent bets in case of failures, and increase them with each win. That is, the risk of losing all your savings, as can happen if you play using the Martingale method, is minimized, and with successful outcomes in the long term you can make a good profit.

D'Alembert's method

In some ways, this option is similar to the Martingale strategy. The only difference is that after a failed bet, you need to increase the amount for the next bet by exactly the size of the previous loss. And if you win by the same amount, you need to reduce the bet. Moreover, keep in mind that we are talking about the size of the bets themselves, and not profits or losses. Taking into account the fact that you can squander all your money (if the series of losses drags on), this system is still very often used by many betters. After all, even in the case of half of the bets won, you can get a good profit, since the size of each subsequent bet will cover previous failures.

Anti-D'Alembert method

As the name suggests, the exact opposite of the system described above. In case of failure, the bet must be reduced, and after winning, increased. A little risky, but it can make you very rich in the long run.

Grind method

This option is based on the D'Alembert method. But the difference is that immediately after the system turns into a plus, you reset the bet size to the initial value. Thus, if you bet fifty rubles, lost three times and increased the betting amount to two hundred rubles, if you win, you will reset the bet to fifty. With this approach, the profit will not be too large, but the risks of losing everything are minimized.

Kelly criterion system

This strategy is usually used only by professional betters. It is based on a detailed study and determination of the probability of the outcome of each individual event on which the player is going to bet. Then you need to compare them with the odds in various bookmakers and calculate whether the bookmakers overestimated or underestimated the probability of such an outcome.

It works as follows. If your indicator of the probability of an outcome as a percentage of the bookmaker’s odds and divided by one hundred exceeds one, then the bookmaker underestimates such a bet. And you can safely bet on this event.

Provided that the better is well versed in the topic and can predict most of his transactions, he will not only never lose his starting capital, but will also consistently receive a profit, albeit small.

Miller method

In this system, bets are placed only on bets in which the chances of two outcomes are approximately equal. And, if the chances are approximately 50/50, then it is enough to win at least in fifty-one cases out of a hundred to always remain in the black.

Conclusion

Remember that these ten systems are not some kind of canons. You can use other tactics and strategies you like, of which several thousand have been developed over the decades. But these are the techniques that are used by the majority of betters around the world. Moreover, many of them have long become real pros precisely thanks to the above systems.
