Baseball betting strategy I've been trying lately is working.

[MarathonMike]

Draft Kings and Bet365 both had "Bet $5 and get $300 in bonus bets". So I signed up for both and I've been only betting the under on MLB games. I'm picking games with o/u around 8. So far I'm 14 for 22. Just FYI

sports betting is odd, so the dodgers are playing the white socks, logically they will likely win but how much might be key

if you bet the white socks will have a great game you will big but that's the gamble

all sports you can bet on the points spread too, 2 goals, 5 runs, 2 TD's.....etc

I don't think sports betting is odd, it's just really hard to win more than you lose!

Odd might not have been the best word but yes it's tricky, I mean stat wise the team that should win does usually

If you bet that they win you get a few depending on spread and how far, etc, you bet they will get upset you win more but your betting against the house so to speak

The longer gamble, make a few bucks or risk losing it all to make more

historically gambling has ruins many lives, men and women have got in too deep as they can't stop

you lose a few, you risk more to make it up, you lose more........downward spriral

playing only a few bucks for fun is the key, like playing the lotto, you will probably loose but the rare chance you win
is what makes it exciting

I never gambled at a casino on slots or anything else, I play the local lottery for a buck here and there, that is my cut off

That's why sports betting sites like Draft Kings will run specials like what I signed up for. They know if they give you $300 in bonus bets, most people will end up losing more than that.

spot on, suck you in hope you lose more than win, rinse and repeat, that is why they are huge and make money

business 101, suck them in.......keep them

what baffles me is why during games or at stadiums they have ads just begging people to get into a gambling debt

to me that is not right at all, they have it at baseball and hockey

oh.......they have at the end, if you have a gambling problem call 1-800.......haha, like what are they going to do?, tell you to stop and pay off your debt

 

[he just circle K]

I never really bet the house, but have always done friendly bets. One time, a co-worker showed me his online betting thing.

Co-corker showed me a college basketball game. Might have been Michigan State versus Ohio State. I thought it did not look bad, but then, he discussed the spread. I knew about spreads, but okay.

Then, he said I could not just be on one game. I had to bet two games. It was also the big ten with a point spread. I told him forget it. But, I did keep track of those two games. Turns out, I would have lost.

If betting is so great for consumers, then casino businesses would not be in business.

Why such a nasty response? I'm just sharing a strategy that is working for me. I'm telling anyone to do it. What is your problem? Incidentally I went 4 for 4 today so I'm 18 for 26. Have a nice day.

not nasty, not at you, that is how they work, they offer you a deal to get you gambling, same with some paid cable, offer you a great deal, you forget, they auto-renew and you pay twice the amount.

it's the classic bait and switch, casino's do it all the time, give you some starter tokens hoping you lose it but had fun and
want to continue, now you are spending your real money and they love it

I have paramount +, 60 bucks a year, auto 120, cancel, wait until black friday, get their 50% off, rinse and repeat

it's the smart play

glad you are having fun if it makes you happy, maybe you just understand sports better than most people

Oh I misread your sentence. My bad.
So I'm doing this basically testing a strategy. I don't gamble anymore but I enjoy coming up with an idea and testing it. Sports betting can really mess you up, my Dad gambled on horses. Lets just say it was not good.

like buying a lotto ticket, you likely will lose or get your money back, it's part of the fun

bet a few bucks on your favorite team no harm, start dropping 100 bucks on multiple games
that is when your getting a bit out of control and it's not a fun game or hobby but an addiction

I have a casino not far from me, I went in there as they have a bar inside and they had some unique beers

all those slots dinging and making noise, it's loud and actually annoying so I never played

it was loaded with older people blowing their money on a chance game with low win odds

it's all digital, the computer controls it and is set up for x amount of plays win a small amount to
keep the person there

I only played slots once on cruise ship back when it was mechanical with the lever

spent like 30 bucks maybe......lost it all!
