SportsCrew's Five Step Plan to Become a Successful Online Bettor
11 Mar 2005
When you bet online, your ultimate intention is to kick the mans
ass. You are all about the money and thats exactly how it should
be. We know it, you know it and the man knows it. And you shouldnt
think for one second that your bookie will feel sorry for you when
your wife screams at you from the top of her beautiful amazingly
healthy- lungs, when she finds out that you have lost your mortgage
payment on the Saturday morning game. Cmon now honey, it was a lock
Right! Keep your chin up champ, we got good news.
I used to be the joy of my bookie; heck, I probably was
one of the 3 guys at the top of his Christmas VIP list but as much
as I used to love getting a big bottle of Crown Royal Special
Reserve for the holiday seasons, they suddenly stopped coming when
I realized that I could follow 5 easy steps to increase my winning
percentage. So I did, and I only realized how good I had been
doing, when Fat Tony paid me good-bye and invited me to not play
with him anymore I then realized success in sports betting comes
after hard work and I started putting it in.
Throughout time, I have talked to legendary bookmakers who are
firmly convinced that nobody, absolutely nobody can beat the odds
in the long run when betting on sports. But in this time and day,
we cannot deny there are sharp players who have definitely learned
to beat the juice and who have become successful sports bettors.
Sports-betting is all about getting as much valuable information as
you can and you need to get it before everybody else says M.F.
Spankaroo name has been changed to protect his identity-, but it
doesnt matter if you have access to exceptional information on the
games, if you have no discipline when betting you will never
overcome the juice.
So, how exactly do you
overcome the juice? Juice is the commission charged by the
bookmaker for writing your bets. It usually is 10 cents on the
dollar and you need to have a winning percentage greater than
52.37% to overcome it and break even. While in theory you will have
at least a 50% winning percentage if you simply flip a coin, it
requires a lot of discipline to achieve such a winning
percentage.
As much as I would like to give you
the actual picks to make it all easy for you, I am as sharp as a
marble. But dont laugh just yet; even a marble can become a bullet
if it has enough momentum. These are the 5 simple steps that you
can follow to start adding momentum to your betting:
Step 1: Bet Safe You might have the run of your life and
make tens of thousands of dollars over a lucky weekend, but it does
you no good if youre playing with a scam sportsbook that will only
pay you the day pigs fly. If you want to play online and make sure
you will get paid, then you need to be very selective when it comes
to funding an offshore sportsbook account. We offer good advice on
professional and reputable sportsbooks.
Thats right, bring the bacon home baby!
Step 2:
Bet Smart Why would you lay 4.5 points on your team, if you can
only lay 4? Why would you pay more commission if you can get 30-50%
discount prices playing at reduced juice? Why would you have to
settle for whatever odds your one sportsbook wants to shove down
your throat, if you can shop for the absolutely best price in the
market? The answer is simple: you dont have to.
Its highly recommendable that you spread out your betting bankroll
among different outfits and make sure you only play at the
absolutely most advantageous prices and odds. You need to start
comparing odds and prices and we got what you need. We have
prepared the best Live Lines page on the Internet for you:
- The page is fully customizable to display only the sportsbooks
and the games that interest you. Become a member of our web site,
log in and customize it once and your live lines page will always
look as unique as your very own betting needs.
- Its
absolutely free of charge. All you need to do to start taking
advantage of this convenient service is become a member.
-
You can keep record of all your bets from inside the screen, with
the click of a button.
Start comparing the best
odds from the most reputable sportsbooks in the gaming industry
today.
Step 3: Bet Flat One of the absolutely most important
aspects of acquiring a betting discipline is to start betting flat.
This means you need to stop increasing the amount of your bets
trying to make up for your early losses in the day. This is called
chasing and it will kill your bankroll faster than any other
mistake you might make.
From this day on, you
need to stop betting emotionally and start betting rationally. Its
actually very simple. All you need to do is create a unit. From
this day forward, all your bets will be for the same exact amount,
regardless of how you feel about the game. That unit should
represent an amount of money no bigger than 1-2% of your total
betting bankroll.
For example: if you count with
$2500 to bet with, this is your bankroll and your unit should be
$50 max. Its crucial that you make it a self-imposed rule for you
never to bet over your unit, no matter what happens. This will help
you manage your betting assets in an extremely effective way and it
will help you relate to your own betting patterns in a much clearer
fashion.
Step 4: Bet Straight This means you
will never place a wager on a betting event involving mens figure
skating And no, its not O.K. to watch Richard Simmons on the tube.
No fruity betting here
In all seriousness, this
term refers to only making straight wagers. As much as we like to
bet on 8 team parlay cards, the pay-off odds are never true odds
even if theyre advertised as such. And if you think picking one
winner is hard try picking 8. In the ongoing battle to overcome the
juice, parlay cards, teasers and other gimmick bets are your
enemies.
And finally, we come to one of the most
time consuming and exhaustive tasks a successful online bettor will
have to conduct:
Step 5: Keep record of all your
bets doing so will allow you to go back on your betting logs and it
will help you identify successful wagering patterns. It will also
help you find your weak spots and the numbers will throw
interesting stats back at you. This is the only real way to know
how successful your betting is over a determined period of
time.

unappealing task, but SportsCrew has already done all the hard
work for you. Our e-Wallet feature allows you to keep track of all
the important info with the click of a button and without ever
