Sports Betting
Sports betting, as
most of you will
probably already know is
not a new concept, in
fact betting on sports
has been around nearly
forever. As far back as
Greek and Roman
civilizations there were
sports and staged
competitions where
attendants wagered on
the outcome. Since that
time wagering on sports
has become an industry
of colossal proportions,
with profits in the
billions and growing by
the year. From local
bookies in Jersey to
PC’s in Bangkok you can
bet on virtually any
sporting event in the
world. Hopefully the
following will teach you
a few basics and you’ll
have enough of an
understanding to start
wagering.
First
of all you need to
establish a "bankroll"
and remember - never bet
more than you can afford
to lose, it should be a
hobby and not a way of
life. After establishing
how much you can afford
to bet you will have to
consult the daily lines.
Daily lines or point
spreads are decided
every day by
professional
handicappers. To decide
on these lines they
factor in past
performances, drafts,
speculate on team moral,
weather and a lot of
other pertinent
information. Lines can
be found at a bookmaker
or "book", in the
newspaper or online. Of
these three I recommend
sports books online,
unless you happen to be
in Vegas, because it is
fast, easy and reliable.
I don’t trust newspaper
lines, they are
approximate and quite
often unreliable.
Next you have to
know what types of bets
are available on the
event you wish to bet
on. Some examples of the
bets include straight
bets, exotic bets,
future bets, round
robins, parlays and
teaser bets. Which can
be explained as follows.
A straight bet is where
you bet money on one
team to win. An exotic
bet is any bet, other
than a straight bet,
whether it be parlays,
teasers, or round
robins. A parlay is a
combination of bets on
different teams and/or
sports, usually having
between 3 and 15
propositions. Every team
that you wager on must
win in order to collect,
but the more
propositions that you
have the higher the
payoff will be. A round
robin is a form of
parlay where you wager
on a combination of the
wagers. A future bet is
when the bet is accepted
well in advance of a
major sporting event.
And a teaser is when you
roll the winnings from a
bet into another bet,
which is referred to as
"teasing the bet". I
hope that this
introduction to sports
betting has helped you
to understand some basic
terminology and that you
have better luck than I
usually do.
