Sports betting thread.

I’d like to bet on Football (soccer) matches most of the time if I’m in the mood for it.

So, do we have many members here who like to bet? Show yourself.

Looks like it isn’t the case, but enough action with the grand slam Wimbledon running and today starts the Tour de France.

No sports betting poker players, really?

Couple bets today. Copa America: Chile - Argentina over 2.5 goals, odds 2.12 and Women World Cup: Germany - England over 2.5 goals, odds 1.64.

I totally missed here, oh well.

I enjoy betting on Tennis & Basketball. Had $100 on Dustin Brown when he beat Nadal at 14-1 Odds. Nice payout. I find Women's singles matches to be more interesting to watch as there is a bigger shot at upsets.

I live from sports betting, but is nothing about good picks. I work with the goals market on every match i can, it is only related to some statics and numbers.

This is similar to poker in many things; obviously because is betting; you have to find your edge, as in poker a very small edge can give you big money, you can easily make more than 10k per month; is a hard work and study at beggining; you will have to support many losses before you get a winner; it has high variance, some days you loss big some days you win big; you need high mental strength and psicology and emotional control, you can get tilted and bust your account in one day; it is comfortable to work from your home and have good control of your time.

To say that i just do it on Betfair, because it is 1.000% more difficult to find and edge on other sites and because there you get banned when winning.

Do you have some experiences about getting banned because you have won? Some sites might ban you if do arbitrage betting but there is also sports betting pros out there so it would be weird if you get banned just because you turn out to be winning player.

And another question. Do you mainly play singles or maybe doubles or triples?

hi like to play on Dart's over ore under and fotball and tennis

I have not get banned because i have not won money on traditional sportsbook, but a friend was banned on 1 site and on other limited the size of his bets to a really crappy small amount.

I only do singles on goals market.

Today and tomorrow are the Wimbledon finals.
Is there someone that’s betting on the matches Williams against Muguruza and Djokovic against Federer?

no, but if i would bet at Serena i would probably do it at live play if she have a bad start again, then its possible get a decent odds at her to win

Before the tournament I bet Djokovic for winner of the tournament so I hope he takes it down.

We will see, but Federer is a tough opponent for him.
How much was the odds that Djokovic wins the tournament when you made you’re bet?

2.52

That’s not bad for a bet on the tournament favourite.
Lucky for you he won the event as well.

True. Small bet though.

It’s always better than losing.

One of the bets today (little bit late though, starts for half hour) Euro U19 Spain-Russia, both teams to score, yes 1.70.
