How to Win Wagering On Soccer - Sports Gaming

When asking ourselves how to win wagering on soccer, the real question being asked is how to realize a profit from placing such bets. Success in sports gaming, in many respects, is little different than success in other forms of gaming that permit gambling. Experience, skill, and chance are the big three blocks from which we build our wins. Those gamblers who know how to win wagering on soccer know simply that consistent victory is not all happenstance, but comes from anticipating what happenstance wills. That is, learning how to win wagering on soccer means always keeping in the front of your mind some basic strategies and tactics for keeping the odds in your favor.

Being drawn into dreams of getting rich quick is where most soccer gamblers go wrong. When it comes to wagering on soccer, singles, simply put, tend to be better pocketbooks than doubles. At first glance this seems contrary to logic. After all, the more hits on one coupon the more pay-off one can expect, right? Wrong.

The problem with doubles is that they restrict the gambler to one betting company for the two matches upon which they bet, and therefore restrict the gambler to one set of odds. In other words, instead of shopping for the best two odds offered for, Torquay v. Cambridge and Liverpool v. Wolves, the sports gamer with the doubles coupon is stuck with the one. While winning the doubles coupon will still result in a profit, it will be a lower profit and a higher risk than if the same gamer had bet with a single coupon on both matches from the two bookmakers offering the best odds. To demonstrate how this works requires a bit of math, but what is good gambling of not a mastery of odds and math?



Suppose, in your opinion, your bet on the above two matches has a 70% and 55% chance of success respectively. This means your chances on the doubles coupon are 38.5%. If the bookmaker sets the odds of this coupon at 2.66, then your profit expectation is (2.66 * .385), or 1.024, or for every $100 wagered you will earn $102.40. This is $240 after a $100 bet.

Now, say you bet on these same two matches individually on two separate coupons from two different bookmaker's each offering the most profitable odds of, say, 1.55 on Cambridge and 1.82 on Wolves. Estimating your chances the same as above (Cambridge at 70% and Wolves 55%), your expected profit becomes 1.085 for Cambridge and 1.0175 for Wolves. Instead of 100 bets of $100 on one doubles coupon it is now split between two singles for fifty $100 bets on Cambridge and fifty $100 bets on Wolves.

Assuming you assessed your chances correctly you will hit on Cambridge thirty-five times. Seventy percent multiplied by 50 (your number of bets) is 35. Your profit on this match is then (35 * $100 * 1.55) - $5000 for a profit of $425. Using the same method, Wolves yields a profit of $87.50 for a total of $512.50. This is roughly twice the yield received for the same amount of money bet on the same two matches through the doubles coupon. It is worthwhile practicing these equations once or twice before applying them practically. However, the general principle should already be clear, by betting singles over doubles you lower the risk while increasing the payoff.

Of course, all of this is reliant on the gambler's ability to accurately assess the chances of one team over another in any given match. While an understanding of the best betting investments and how to calculate what those are is crucial to winning wagers, the basis for those calculations remains your insight into the factors that make a winning (or losing) team. In that respect, learning how to win wagering on soccer is as much odds and math as it is keeping an open eye on the pulse of your teams. In the end, turning and keeping the odds in your favor is a matter of skill, knowledge and a little luck.
