I sometimes wonder why so many people lose money betting on sports. Then I realize it is that people in general don’t think for themselves. Instead, they look to others for most everything. Sports betting is no different than anything else.
On the other hand, the winners do it themselves. They don’t rely on expert sports picks or gimmicky betting systems. They follow the simple rules of winning and never complicate things.
So what are the rules to winning sports betting?
1) Always bet the same amount on every game you bet.
2) Only bet on games that give you a known edge
3) Know which games to NOT bet
I had a customer who purchased one of my systems. He sent me an email complaining that he lost $1,400 on three games. He bet one from the system and it lost. He bet against the system in another game, and lost that one. The third bet he termed as a last minute attempt to break even. He did not use the system, and it lost. He broke all of the rules and lost big.
There is a right way and a wrong way to go about sports betting. If you don’t do things right, you should not be surprised if you lose. It takes consistency to win. Consistency in your betting. Consistency in your handicapping methods.
It also takes discipline to win. Discipline to avoid the dumb bets like trying to recover a season of losses in a single game. Slow and steady wins the money.
Don’t be a dumb bettor. Get a good system and use it correctly. There is no other way to win.
