Winning at sports betting. From my grandfather in Kazakhstan!

Would you like to know the one secret to winning sports betting? Here is the secret - don't tell anyone else. Look for anomalies in the system. Your job as a sports bettor is to do your research and look for things that have not been appropriately factored into the odds or the betting line. This takes work. You cannot bet on feelings, or your general impressions of what happened last year.
You need to keep abreast of the latest news. Carefully review the team and player statistics. Look over the recent injury reports. Is the game going to take place outdoors or in an indoor stadium? If it is outdoors, what is the weather going to be on game day? You need information and analysis, and you are best off doing it yourself.

Also, look for anomalies based on the psychology of public opinion. Remember, the sportsbook is adjusting the odds so that there are roughly an equal number of bettors on both sides of the game outcome. If a large percentage of the population is betting on a team to win simply because it is a popular team, the sportsbook may give the underdog better odds than it deserves to even out the betting - so take the dogs once in a while.

I hope you have enjoyed these tips. Follow them, and you are well on your way to winning sports gambling.

Sounds easy right?

Hey Borat!

Just wondering, if your comments apply equally to two people, X and Y, then X should play X's picks and Y should play Y's, right? But wouldn't their results be the same if X played Y's and Y played X's? And wouldn't they be better if they both played the picks of the better capper between X and Y?

I've always been confused about this advice for everyone to play their own picks. Isn't everyone best off if everyone plays the picks of the best capper!?

You did kick my ass in that Sumo Wrestle so I do not want to make an argue, but do you see what I try to be saying!?
