- Bet to win or bet for fun, but know what you are aiming for.
- Never stake more than 5% of your bankroll on a single bet. Staking higher amounts may seem like a good idea, and, when you're on a winning streak, this form of staking appears justifiable. But any serious bettor's key concern must be that of staying in the game: to be able to conduct any kind of business, you need to have a tool, and in betting, your betting bank is that tool - if you lose your betting bank, you can no longer place bets. With aggressive staking, one single losing run is enough to wipe out a bank that has been built up over numerous winning runs. Staying safe should therefore always be the main concern.
- Select odds between 1.70 and 2.20.
- Watch games, analyse around 45 hours a week as our tipsters do... or buy tips from the people who do that!
- Only draw conclusions about a betting record if it contains hundreds of previous tips.
- Learn to accept losing tips: betting is a marathon, not a sprint.
- Be afraid of risk, then you will only retain the bets that you feel the most confident about.
- Track your betting record on every single bet you have made (with an Excel file).
- Do not panic if you're on a losing run, and do not drink too much champagne if you're on a winning one.
- Bet on the Asian Handicap market. Most professional punters prefer Asian Handicap bets when it comes to betting on football. The great thing about Asian Handicaps is that the possibility of a draw is ruled out. By eliminating the draw outcome, Asian Handicap betting reduces the possible outcomes from three (in traditional 1X2 wagering) to two. Usually the handicap is calculated to give each team a 50-50 chance of winning.
- While you may think that it's easier to have all of your betting money in one single bookmaker account, you may lose money by doing so. Having accounts in multiple bookmakers will ensure that you have a much wider selection of sports, leagues and - last but not least - odds, to choose from. Having the ability to place your bets on 1.95 instead of 1.90 can make a great difference over time. Getting the best odds is important. Using multiple bookmakers will also give you the ability to spread the stake, in the event that you are limited to one placement and are thus unable to place the amount you wish to bet. Holding accounts with multiple bookmakers will provide you with a better selection, better odds and more possibilities overall. Bookmakers like Betfair, Sbobet and Pinnacle should all be included in your bookmaker portfolio. They all have great odds and limits.
