Online Sports Betting Advice - Strategies for Football Betting

The half time/full time result is becoming more popular by the day. Some online experts, I use the word with reservations, are telling us that around 75% of half-time results will also be the final results. In other words the “result” at half-time will be repeated at full-time, in three quarters of games played. This I cannot agree with. Altoget…

This is something I’ve recently researched personally. Almost ever time you turn the TV on these days, programmes are being sponsored by Bingo Firms. Why? Well in my opinion it’s a great big con. Not the sponsorship but the way the games are so loaded. If you decide to have a go. Of course the temptations are all there. A great big Welcome bonus and o…

I’ve always been interested in splitting leagues into quarters. This way it’s seems easier to make evaluations of form etc. In the Premiership this would mean having 4 sets of five teams to consider. Something that has caught my eye from time to time has been the number of matches between teams in the top five places in the league table which don&#…

Now is as good a time as any to remind those who run SWEEPS that there’s not much time left for this season’s F.A.CUP SWEEP to be sorted out. My article on SWEEPS earlier on 5th January last year will give the general idea of how it works. One difference being that if you start before the THIRD ROUND you will need 45 punters. That’s to cover 20 tea…

I found an article a while ago that set me thinking about betting percentages. How many punters actually view their bets in terms of percentages? Not many, I’ll wager, yet it’s the one thing the bookmaker does above all else. Every bet he accepts is added to those already in his possession for a particular event and the stake of all the bets on that e…

The Premiership Here we have EVERTON leading the way with a scoring rate of 22 BTTS games from 28. Followed by ‘Spurs with 2…

Racing isn’t really my cup of tea despite having worked in the industry for so long. However some of the Cheltenham offers have caught my eye. One in particular on Wednesday’s on programme. Some bookmakers were offering EVEN MONEY on what was to anyone who knew his horses a 4 to 1 ON shot. This was, of course, Sprinter Sacre. Why were the layers bein…

I was looking through the sports pages of a newspaper yesterday when something caught my eye. I am all against newspapers using tipsters from the bookmaking fraternity but this one really made me think. Was I actually missing something? The thing that caught my eye was related to a HANDICAP bet. Each of two teams, playing away, were given a ONE GOAL START. Now t…

Perhaps now is as good a time as any to take an up-to-date look at OVER 2.5 goals. With insurance. With this strategy, only 0 – 0, 0 – 1 and 0 – 2 will be losing scores. The basic requirement will be to find a match(es) in which the HOME side has a definite advantage, plus where the AWAY side has a propensity to find the net themselves. Although it mi…

Recently I have been scouring the “net” to see what is “Flavour of the Month” etc. I came across a thread on a forum in which the writer gave sketchy details of his interpretation of BTTS. He hasn’t been “proofing” for long, three Saturdays, in fact. That’s not what interests me, however. What does come up…
