GUIDE to GAMBLING
Just a few tips I have picked up while betting sports over the past several years. Not necessarily rules, but more or less guidelines to help myself have a better opportunity to win. Being on the right side is what mostly matters as there are highs and lows to all gambling, but these will not hurt your already slim chances.
-Home teams ALWAYS have an advantage. Some teams more so than others. (Travel, Jet Lag, Crowd, Weather)
-Beware of teams coming off a BYE or a short week. Preparation and game plans are important. (
Monday Night Football, Conference Tournaments, Bowl Games)
-Beware of teams coming off a big upset or a major win.
-In rivalry games records do not matter.
-Once you hit a wager on the OVER, you cannot lose. It is a more fun bet if you just want some action on a prime time game.
-Some trends matter.
-Never bet a 2nd half line if you are not watching the game.
-Do not get emotionally involved and then bet on a team. (Alma Mater, Favorite Team)
-Never go against a streaking team.
-Veterans and veteran teams seem to have an edge in the playoffs.
