Betting On American Football

Football betting, especially pro football betting, is one of the most popular choices of our players. The main professional league is the National Football League, who’s seventeen-week regular season runs from September to December each year. There follows one month of playoffs until the eventual Champion is decided at the Super Bowl, the single biggest day in American Sports.

The main action on American football games is in pointspread, or line, betting, where the sportsbook decides on a margin of victory for the favorite that will make either team an attractive betting proposition.

How To Be A Sports Betting Champ?

 

Luckily, I had spent last few months developing a software for a popular sports betting site. If you are into sports betting, chances are you use that software :)

This gave me an opportunity to work behind the counter and see how they operate. I noticed a few particular secrets that I am going to reveal here. (The kind of things they don't cover in non-disclosure).

1) Very few (not allowed to mention exact percent) of the people who bet win.

2) People who lose have no recognizable order or pattern in their betting. I concluded they are just betting on luck.

3) Newspaper hints or news like "Manchestor is in low spirit", have big influence on bets made. Not surprisingly, they are proved wrong more than often. People who bet on those news lose the most.

4) The kind of people who actually take money have very high winning rate. Most of them were winning atleast four out of five times.

5) The winners 'wise guys' always use a system. You can recognize their betting style and their system.

7) The winners never place bet on all the games. They make mostly winning entries. Like a clever hunter they know how to sit and wait for the prey.

8) Most winners use statistics based software or systems. This becomes clear once you see their betting patterns.

9) Beginners are the ones to lose money. Most people don't continue betting beyond six months. Those who do learn the art of betting and take big rewards.

 

My lesson from the above - If you are into betting (sports, not casino gambling), don't do that without a winning system.

Being Smart With Half Points

Is Buying a Half Point a Smart Move?
The normal answer to the question is a resounding "no." It's difficult enough to win when laying 11-to-10 on a routine bet.

The only times a bettor should even consider buying a half point are when they like a 6.5-point underdog or when they like a 7.5-point favorite. There is an advantage to moving the point spread to seven points, provided you are only laying 12-to-10. Some sportsbooks are now charging extra when the move affects the number seven, just as they do with three.

One mistake many bettors make is to buy off of three or seven points, so that they can win instead of getting a push. In the long run, the extra juice bettors are forced to lay will erode any profits gained on those occasions where a team does win by three or seven, and then some. Buying half points should only be done to save potential losers, not create potential winners from ties.

Starting With Sports Betting Champ

 

A lot of guys out there believe that SportsBettingChamp is a scam, well let them hold on their belief. Meanwhile for those of you who are either planning to buy it or have bought it already. Here is my quick start guide!

As soon as you purchase the system, you should be getting a mail from John to open your account at a particular bookmarker. If you are already into sportsbetting and got a betting account you can use that one. However, John says he has had best results with this bookmarker. No personal experience to cite. I had not opened the account at that bookmarker. I was using betfair and I was/am quite happy with it. I don't think it matters. The only thing is that you should have a betting account. If you don't want to do that then this system is not for you!

Once you have opened the account, you will start receiving instructions for making bets. You can start placing your bets immediately. Start with smaller bets. This will help you understand the system and also build up your confidence.

If that sounds simple then don't wonder. The system is as simple as that!

There are definitely some more tips that make these results even better. But for Squares that is the way to start

John Morrison Sports Betting Champ - Scam Or Winning System?

Well if you have been researching over internet for SportsBettingChamp, then you would already be knowing that it either falls flat as scam or as a winning system?
People either cite it as a winning system or just a scam? No one says that it wins some/most/none of the bets. Why?

The reason is simple, most people have never tried the stuff. For those who have tried it they know the answer is that it simply wins all the bets. Yes, it does has its occassional bad day, but I don't mind losing a bet or two in the entire season. The losing rate for me is still below 2% which means I make 98% wins most of the time. I think the last time I lost money to it was when I tried to add my own superior knowledge of injuries to the bet choice I was given by John Morrison. I don't mind that though! If you are smart enough with injuries and player rotation you can save yourself money by avoiding losing to last minute changes. So its ok.

I think people who have tried this system find it an easy way to make quick money. For those who have not tried it, they can continue their rant of sportsbettingchamp as a scam. Anyhow, I got to go now.

C ya!
Btw, blogging is not all that fun so don't expect a lot of posts from me. Thanks for your patience!

Understanding Point Spreads For Betting

 

Point Spread is a potent tool, depending on how you are able to use it. Most of the amateur players think that they can only bet on the outcome of the game but sports betting is different. It gives you a lot of options. It really allows you to test your expertise as well as reward you heavily for your expertise. Betting On Point spread is one of the ways I highly recommend for betting.

When it comes to betting on football and basketball, a bettor must have a solid understanding of the point spread if they hope to have a profitable season.

The point spread is a handicap placed on one team, for betting purposes only, and it is designed to give both teams in any game an equal chance at winning in the eyes of sports bettors.

Using an example from Week 2 of the 2007 NFL season, the Atlanta Falcons were visiting the Jacksonville Jaguars.

There was little doubt Jacksonville was the better of the two teams and if all one had to do was to pick the winning team, nearly every bettor would have taken the Jaguars.

In this case, Jacksonville was installed as a 10 point favorite, which is commonly written as Jacksonville -10. Atlanta, the underdog, is commonly written as Atlanta +10.

If you bet the favorite, Jacksonville, the Jaguars have to win by 11 points or more in order for you to win your bet. Remember, the Jaguars are favored by 10 points, so we subtract 10 points from their final score for betting purposes. If Jacksonville were to win 24-13, Jaguar bettors would win their wager. If the Jaguars were to win 23-14, Jacksonville bettors would lose because they did not win by more than 10 points.

If the Jaguars were to win the game by exactly 10 points, 24-14, it would be a tie or a push and all wagers are refunded to bettors.

Jacksonville did defeat Atlanta as expected, but the Jaguars failed to cover the point spread when they won by a score of 13-7.

I was not using SportsBettingChamp back then, but I still managed to recover my money. Without a proper system sports betting is tough, real tough!

Have Your Say!

 

As long as the Phoenix Suns linger as that championship-free franchise in the desert, they will continue to regret making a trade for a broken-down Shaquille O'Neal. Between going for it, and sheer desperation, there is the finest line. What happened to believing in Mike D'Antoni's system? What happened to believing speed and finesse could deliver a championship?

In every way, this trade is an indictment of these D'Antoni glory years with the Suns. If Suns president Steve Kerr is thrusting Shaq onto his coach, he never bought into his coach's system. If D'Antoni is going along with this, you have to wonder whether he ever truly believed his way could win a title.
