Betting Basics for Baseball

While football and basketball are the most popular sports to bet on, baseball could be the easiest for beginners once you understand how to read the money line. Money line gambling is the primary wagering option for baseball bettors, which involves betting on the straight-up game outcome with no consideration for a point spread. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides.

For example, our favorite newbie bettor Emily is a huge fan of the Boston Red Sox, who are favored in a majority of their games as the defending World Series champions. The money line on the Red Sox against the last-place Tampa Bay Devil Rays might be -170, with sportsbooks making bettors wager significantly more money on the Sox than the Devils Rays because it is more unlikely that the Rays would win the game. In this particular case, the -170 means a bettor who likes the Sox would need to lay $170 down to win $100. Conversely, Tampa Bay would be +150 based on the common 20-cent line used in baseball (the difference between -170 and +150), meaning a $100 bet could earn $150.

Keep in mind that sportsbooks only make a commission (also known as juice or vigorish) when the favorite loses. So if Boston loses, the book pays off $150 to underdog bettors while collecting $170 from favorite bettors, for a $20 profit. If Boston wins as expected, favorite bettors collect $100 while dog bettors lose $100 – resulting in zero profit for the bookmaker. The bigger the favorite, the less likely the underdog will win (and the less likely the book will collect their commission). To compensate for making a profit less often, sportsbooks increase the spread between the favorite’s lay price and the underdog’s payoff, making their commission bigger when the longshot underdog does win.

Some quality sportsbooks even offer a 10-cent line on baseball (also called the “dime” line), which would net a $160 profit. The “dime” line is especially appealing due to the fact that it offers half the juice as a normal football or basketball bet, so the bettor is charged half as much for making a wager.

A critical factor to consider when betting on baseball is the importance of starting pitching. With football and basketball, team vs. team handicapping is key – but with baseball you have double the chance to find an edge since both team and pitching match-ups can offer a winning edge. Starting pitchers obviously play an important role in the outcome of the game, and oddsmakers make the money line with them in mind.

One example would be the Red Sox being listed as a bigger favorite with ace Curt Schilling on the mound than when they send Tim Wakefield out there. Since Schilling is obviously the better pitcher, oddsmakers take that into consideration and would make him a bigger favorite than Wakefield since Schilling gives the Sox a better chance to win.

Money Line in Over/Under Totals

Total bets in baseball are based upon the combined number of runs scored by both teams. For example, if the Over/Under total of a game is posted at 9, and the combined runs of both teams adds up to less than 9, the Under wins; if the combined runs add up to over 9, the Over wins; if exactly 9, the total bet pushes.

Since there is much less scoring in baseball than football or basketball (making each run more significant) bookmakers often need to adjust the money line of the total in an effort to more subtly even the action. Imagine a game in which the total of 9 is too high, but the total of 8.5 is too low. The standard money line on totals is -110 each way, but in this case the money line would likely be adjusted to 9 UNDER -120, meaning you can bet under (the slightly too high number of 9), but the trade off is you must risk $120 to win $100; if you’re willing to bet over (the slightly too high number of 9), you can do so with the appealing money line of +100.

The standard money line on totals is -120/+100 and is often stated in shorthand as 9 OVER (or 10 UNDER, etc.), but the money line can be adjusted even further. Example: 10 UNDER -140 (the over would pay +120).

Run Lines

Most sportsbooks also offer the opportunity to wager on the run line, which is essentially a variation of the point spread for baseball. With the run line, you are betting on whether or not you think a team will win by more than one run (-1 ½) or stay within one run (+1 ½). This is an especially appealing bet on a big favorite since you don’t have to risk as much money if you believe the team will win by two or more runs and can even get “plus” money in some cases.

Using the example from earlier, the Red Sox were -170 against the Devil Rays on the money line. However, on the run line, the Sox might be +110 at -1 1/2, which means you could risk only $100 and win $110. Meanwhile, the Devil Rays would be -130 based on the standard 20-cent line at +1 1/2.

Therefore, a 5-4 Boston victory would reward just those who bet the Devil Rays on the run line along with the Red Sox on the money line. Of course there is a trade-off here for taking the run line in either case. Betting the Red Sox on the run line would enable you to bet less and win more while betting the Devil Rays is safer if you don’t necessarily think they’ll win but believe they can keep the game close.

The additional option of the run line gives you a little bit of everything when betting on baseball. You can wager on who will simply win the game with the money line or risk less and bet the run line if you are more confident on the side you like. Hopefully at least now you have a better understanding of just how easy baseball betting can be.

Overview of Bet Types

What Can Be Bet On?

Game Outcomes

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. (See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)

But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game.

Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. (More details on playing the Money Line)

Points (or Runs) Scored

Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.

The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under. So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.

Future Bets

Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.

Proposition Bets (or Prop Bets)

Proposition bets, also known as prop bets, focus upon the more exotic aspects of a game and are generally reserved for events that are widely televised. Prop bets are extremely popular when it comes to wagering on the Super Bowl in Las Vegas . The Imperial Palace Casino’s sportsbook is well-known for the enormous number of prop bets offered. For example, you can bet on:

What team will win the coin toss

What player will score the game’s first touchdown

What will be the exact margin of victory

Types of Bets

Straight Bet

Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.

Parlay

A parlay is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those wagers winning together. The benefit of the parlay bet is much better odds than placing each individual bet separately since the difficulty of hitting it is much higher.

Standard payoffs on a two-team parlay are 13/5; while a three-teamer pays 6/1; and a four-teamer 10/1.

Parlay cards are also fairly common in sportsbooks and popular with bettors, as they are released early in the week with set odds that do not change in return for a slightly lower payoff.

Round Robin

Adventurous bettors who enjoy betting parlays sometimes put together a series of parlays called a Round Robin. A three-team Round Robin consists of one three-team parlay and three two-team parlays. For example, Joe likes teams A,B,C – with a Round Robin he has a three-teamer with ABC, and two-teamers with AB, AC, and BC.

Teaser

Similar to a parlay, a teaser bet is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers, but is different in that the point spread is adjusted to your advantage on each individual wager. In exchange for the points, you get less of a return on your bet compared to a parlay. For example, a 6-point teaser would move the line on a 7-point favorite from -7 to -1, meaning the team would have to cover 6 less points. Each of the individual wagers must win or the bet is a loss.

These are the main types of sports bets available today. But as sports betting continues to grow, sportsbooks will continue to develop new and creative ways to bet. We’ll continue to track these changes to the sports gambling landscape, so check back often and we’ll tell you all about it!

What Exactly are Football Bets?

Amber Mike asked:


Betting on football is a hobby that a lot of people enjoy, it’s a bit of fun, and you have the chance to win something which appeals to a lot of people. Obviously it’s important not to risk more than you can afford to lose, but as long as you’re sensible there is nothing wrong with it.

There are three main ways you can place a bet, win bets, lay bets and each way bets. There are other more complex methods, but these three are the main forms and it’s best to stick to these for a while at least.

Win betting is where you bet on someone or something to win. So if you are betting on a football match between teams A and B, and you bet that team A will win, that would be a win bet.

Lay bets are where you bet on someone or something to lose. So using the same example, if you bet on team B losing the match then you would be placing a lay bet.

Each way bets work slightly differently and can’t really be applied to a match between two teams, but can be placed in football betting by looking at league tables and betting on their outcome. When you bet on someone to win or place that means that you are betting on them either coming first and winning, or being one of the runners up – usually positions 2, 3 and sometimes 4. So if you bet on team A to win or place in the league table you would be placing an each way bet.

Accumulator bets are a form of betting popular in football betting. This is where you place a series of small bets of one of the above forms – usually win bets – but you link them together so that all of your predictions have to come true for you to win anything, but when you do win it’s more than it would be if you bet on each separately. So you might bet on team A to win match 1, then team C to win match 2 and then team E to win match 3. To get it right you’d need for teams A, C and E to win. The way it works is that the winnings from each bet are carried forward and used as the stake for the next bet so that the pot of money you are betting each time grows as does the potential winnings, it is this accumulation of money that gives this sort of bet it’s name.

When you first start betting it’s worth remembering that the bookies who take bets all the time are pretty good at knowing the forms of the teams that you are betting on. They don’t often get it wrong which is why you are more likely to win on something with short odds than you are to win on a long shot. Odds are the ratio of stake bet, to potential winnings. Odds of 2:1 are shorter odds than those of 14:1. Looking at the form of the various teams is the way that you can help yourself to have a better chance at winning when you place bets too. Though it’s worth remembering that all betting is basically a game of chance.

MLB Future Bets “A Little Investment Could Turn Out To Be A Nice Payday”

Pat Okeefe asked:


2009 MLB Future Bets “A Little Investment Could Turn Out To Be A Nice Payday”

Brought To You By Sportsmoneymanagers.com

Written By Staff Writer Pat O’Keefe

Spring Training games kicked off today so now it’s time for the predictions. ESPN have their supposed analysts like Buster “Never Swung a Bat” Olney stating their opinions as if they were facts.

Well, something know-it-all brainiacs don’t talk about is one of the best bets out there today…long shot division winners.

In every Major League season there is that horse that everyone thought would be glue come playoff time that actually beats out the thoroughbreds.

Last season the obvious over achiever was the Rays. Tampa and their miniscule payroll beat out the defending World Series champion Boston Red Sox and baseball’s highest payroll, New York Yankees.

If you put $100 on the Rays to win the American League prior to the season, you would have brought home $20,000 in the fall.

Even after thirty games in the 2008 season, the Rays up a game and a half on the Sox in the American League East, a bettor could have got +450 on the Rays to finish the regular season on top.

The Rays were not the only team to come out of nowhere and reward those throwing cash on the dark horse in March.

Entering the 2007 season the Detroit Tigers were the defending American League Champions, the Chicago White Sox were one year removed from a World Series Championship, and the Minnesota Twins had won the 2006 American League Central Pennant. No one was looking for the Indians and their relatively unstable roster to beat out the three other powerhouses. Certainly not after finishing the ‘06 season fourteen games under five hundred and beating out only the lowly Royals in the division.

Well, the Indians took home the American League Central Pennant that year and paid out big in Vegas.

So those who bet on the 2007 Cleveland Indians and the 2008 Tampa Bay Rays to win their respective division prior to Opening Day were big winners!

This year is no different than any other year. There will be an underdog beating out the favorites for their division. The World Series may be the Red Sox v. Phillies or the Yankees v. Cubs, which wouldn’t be real long shots (even though the Cubs seem to find a way to roll snake eyes come playoff time every season), but division winners is another story.

Division ugly ducklings are great futures bet.

The best big money pick this season is the Houston Astros. SportsBook.com has them at 2000-1 long shots, as in you put down $100 and you will bring home $20,000 if they win the American League Central.

The Cubs will be tough. A lineup toting Alfonso Soriano, Aramis Ramirez, Derek Lee, Geovany Soto, and Milton Bradley in the national league looks dangerous on paper. Further, a pitching staff with Carlos Zambrano, Rich Harden, Ted Lilly, and Ryan Dempster starting games and Carlos Marmol, Kevin Gregg, Aaron Heilman, and Notre Dame’s own Jeff Samardzija makes this feat of the Astros even more difficult.

But the Cubs choke. It’s their MO. Sounds simple, but it has held true in the playoffs, so why not start the collapse a little earlier?

The Brewers made the playoffs last year…they won’t this year. They lost their top two starters, C.C. Sabathia and Ben Sheets and have a sketchy pen. The Brew Crew did add Trevor Hoffman, but he’s seen his better days. His career has been extended by pitching the majority of his games in pitchers parks in the National League West. All in all, this staff could lose more games than that powerful lineup will win.

The Cardinals continue to ignore free agent hitters every season. Albert Pujols is on an island in that lineup. Last year Ryan Ludwick came out of nowhere and whacked thirty-seven bombs…not likely this year. The thirty year old late bloomer has all of the signs of a one year wonder. There is no physical evidence or expert analysis, it’s just a hunch on my part. That doesn’t disguise the fact that there is no one else in that lineup. When Adam Wainwright, Joel Piniero, Kyle Lohse, Todd Wellemeyer, and Brad Thompson make up your starting staff, you need a potent lineup. They are having tryouts for the newly vacant closer’s role, which 90% of the time ends up ugly. Not a good outlook in Nelly’s hometown.

The Pirates and Reds are not even worth mentioning. They are consistent losers and do not have the potential the 2008 Rays squad had.

So there you are left with one last team. Now this is not even close to a sure thing. If you have $2000 in your bank account right now I wouldn’t recommend you put a grand on the 2009 ‘Stros to win the National League Central. But if you’re looking for a nice long shot, the ‘Stros are the team.

They made a terrific run in the second half of last season to win the Wild Card. The Cubs were running away from the division and very well could do the same this season, but these boys down in Houston have heart.

Lance Berkman was one of the best players in the National League last year and is consistently one of the better bats out there. Unlike Pujols in St. Louis, he’s not alone. Carlos Lee is another consistent performer. Those two alone will put up over sixty homers and two hundred RBIs year in- year out.

Miguel Tejada dodged jail this offseason and now has a lot to prove. At thirty-four years old he may have seen his better days. He’s also deflated since his juiced years in Oakland and Baltimore. Tejada could go either way, but he doesn’t have to be third option at the plate anymore.

That spot goes to twenty-five year old Hunter Pence, who continues to mature and is becoming a steady bat in the lineup and glove in right field. He adds some protection for their top two bats and takes some pressure off of Tejada to swing for the fences.

Michael Bourne adds speed on the base path and like Pence is a young up and comer. He is not a five tool player but he is essential just like all speed guys in the National League.

And the Brad Ausmus era is officially over. Houston is handing the reigns over behind the plate to blue chip J.R. Towles.

The staff has one of the most consistent aces in the National League, Roy Oswalt. After him it’s a roll of the dice. Wandy Rodriguez had twenty quality starts last season and finished the year with a 3.54 ERA. He isn’t the best number two, but can certainly hold his own especially throwing against anemic lineups like Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, and St. Louis.

After Wandy, it’s the oft injured Mike Hampton on the comeback trail and back end starters Brandon Backe and Brian Moehler. If Hampton can stay healthy and can come close to his old self (that’s hard to remember) then he would be a major boost to this staff. Former All-Star Russ Ortiz is battling to earn a spot in the rotation as well.

Again don’t bet the house on this staff, thus don’t be the house on this team.

The pen is very solid. Jose Valverde is one of the better closers in the National League and coming off a season he saved forty-four games in fifty-one chances. Bridging the gap between Valverde and the starters are some quality middle relievers. LaTroy Hawkins is back, seasoned, and coming off a great finish to last season. Geoff Geary, Doug Brocail, and Tim Byrdak all finished last year with sub four ERAs and will be back with the team this season. This bullpen has the ability to take over in the fifth inning and save the arms of Oswalt, Rodriguez, and Hampton for the race to the finish.

Again, I will state if I had to pick the winner of the National League Central, it would not be the Houston Astros. The safe bet is the Chicago Cubs, the money bet IS the Astros however .

With all of this analysis aside, there is another reason why the Astros are an attractive bet and why these types of bets are generally better bets.

Picking the winner of a single game has limits.

A starter can have one horrendous inning and the game is most likely over and you’ve lost your money.

A star hitter could have an off game, thus the lineup is not as effective and you’ve lost your money.

An ump could blow a call at the plate and you you’ve lost your money.

Picking a team to “win” at the start of the season adds more factors for better and worse.

It gives a much larger window for pitchers, hitters, and umpires to correct their mistakes.

General Managers can make trades and minor league call ups during a season that can change the outcome. They cannot make those moves during the course of a single game.

This is why $100 spent on a long shot for the season may be better then $100 on a favorite for a single game.

Think of it this way: If you make a safe bet of $100 on a single game you may win $150 tops. If you bet on a long shot of $100 on a single game and you may win $450. If you lose either of those bets that one game cost you $100.

Betting $100 at the start of the season on a long shot can pay out huge. In the Astros case it pays you $20,000 in the end. If you lose that $100 cost you $1.62 a game.

$20,000 if you win, $1.62/ game?

You make the call.

How to Bet on Horses

Simon Skinner asked:


If you have a passion for racehorses, then you have no doubt considered betting on your favorite horse at one point of time or another. Betting on horses has been a favored pastime for a long time of many horse owners and others who are connected with racehorses. In present times, it has become very organized so that almost anyone and everyone can take part. But, before you put your money at stake, remember that betting on horses is simple yet quite complicated at the same time. Having said this, do not back out now because if you learn all the necessary details and information, you may have the winning edge over the rest.

The basic rule of betting is simple enough, winner takes all and second and third really do not count. The main thing for you to know is that there are two standard kinds of horseracing bets, namely – straight bets and exotic bets. Here in this article we give you a clear idea about straight bets and how they work.

STRAIGHT BETS:

WIN BETTING – you have to bet on one single horse, and your horse would have to finish first for you to cash your ticket.

PLACE BETTING – you place a bet on your horse to finish in the second (place) position. If your horse finishes first or second, you may cash your ticket. The payoff of such a bet would not be as much as payoffs of win betting but there are more chances of you being able to cash your ticket.

SHOW BETTING – here you place a bet on your horse to finish in the third (show) position. To be able to cash in your ticket, your horse has to finish first, second or third. The payoff would be less than place betting or win betting payoffs, however, it does offer you the feature of added security.

WIN PLACE BETTING – here you place a bet on your horse to come in first or second. If your horse finishes first, you get both payoffs – win and place. If it finishes second, then you also get the show payoff. Without a doubt, it is great should your horse win first place but even if it comes second, you would be able to get some cash out of your ticket.

ACROSS THE BOARD BETTING – Betting on a horse across the board means your horse has to either come first, second or third. Should your horse come in first, you get all three payoffs – win, place, and show. Should it come in second, you may collect two payoffs – place and show. However, should your horse come in third, you would only be able to collect the show payoff. Here even if your horse doesn’t win, you have a chance of recouping some part of your initial bet.

Exotic bets have two sub-categories – intra-race bets and multi-race bets. Intra race bets allow you wagering on multiple horses on individual races. And multi-race bets allow you to predict the winners of consecutive matches on one single ticket.

Now that you have clear idea about straight bets, why not give them a shot. Although remember that horserace betting is a game of odds therefore only invest what you are willing to lose. But even though there are equal possibilities of winning and losing, luck and the right information might just be your ticket to infinite riches. So go ahead and head out to the racetrack and get in on all the action today!

Online Betting Uk | Bookmakers Lose £1M | Online Sports Betting

Online Betting UK asked:


As the news spread, punters made a dash for their computers to get their bets in with their online sports books. Word was out that the financially troubled Weymouth Football Club was going to field their youth team against Rushden & Diamonds.

It’s being reported that more than £1 million was paid out after heavy betting action came in on Weymouth losing this match…and lose it they did. The rumour was in fact true and the home side cashed big tickets in one of the largest non-league football betting coups.

It all started when the entire team made the decision to go on strike due to not being paid so far this season and that there wouldn’t be any medical insurance for the match. That resulted in the club being forced to start the Weymouth teenage team.

Bookmakers didn’t know what to make of the sudden spike in volume for what would normally be a relatively obscure betting event. They immediately were forced to cut the odds as the money poured in and some even suspended the betting entirely.

Punters were said to be racing from one bookmaker to another and getting all they could down at their online bookmakers as word of the strike leaked out.

The obvious thought was that a team of 17 year olds would have no chance. And that proved to be right as they were drubbed 9-0 and all those who wagered against Weymouth cashed their tickets.

One bookmaker said “Normally £30,000 to £40,000 would be paid out on a match like this across the whole industry. But we paid out in the region of £100,000 and we are 20 per cent of the industry.”

Steve Palmer, deputy sports editor at the Racing Post, said that the match had become “the centre of the betting universe” before the game.

“Nonleague football is one of the few sports where punters can get an edge on the bookmakers,” he said. “They can have superior knowledge and the bookmakers can get caught with their trousers down.”

The Truth About Sports Betting

March 24, 2009

FREE PICKS : CALL ME FOR THE FREE PICK ON THIS GAME 212-542-4477

Kevin McLeod asked:


Can you make money on sports betting?

We have all seen the adverts, or the websites telling us that fortunes can be made betting on your favourite sport! Statements like ‘I made a million, so can you’ or ‘leave your job today and make your fortune in gambling’. If, like me you have been fooled in to buying these so called ‘miracle systems’ then you will know the disappointment of reading over them to find that to make the money the systems claim is there for the taking would take enormous amounts of luck to say the least.

Some of the systems I have seen are the laughable multi team accumulator; you have probably seen them too. It will require you to bet on around 15 matches (all sure things!) and place a small amount to win £1000’s. People, of course have won the odd accumulator and the bookies (bookmaker) actually love that they have. Now that might seem like a silly statement, the bookies like people to win??? Surely not? Well look at it this way, if one person wins an accumulator bet and gets publicity about it, other people are then encouraged to try it, after all this person won so why can’t I? 999,999 times out of a million these people will lose their money and the bookie wins.

There are also new spates of systems that require you to place various bets during the course of a match depending on how the game is going. You may have purchased one of them, they go something like this… At the start of the game bet on team A to win, then when team A scores double your original bet and place this money on team B to draw, if team B then scores bet again on team A with 75% of the original bet and then if Team A scores again bet on Team B to win with 4 times the original bet. Confused? You will be.

These are just two examples of systems that you can buy online today that in, my opinion, will make you no money at all.

Another thing to consider is that around 90% of betting systems are scams, or are made up of old systems and rehashed, repackaged and sent out again. Be very wary of any system that guarantees you to win 100% of the time. Unless that system is arbitrage then it is not true and is a scam. Arbitrage (for those readers that don’t know) is the system of using different bookmakers odds on a sporting event to cover all outcomes without the possibility of losing. This doesn’t happen very often over a sporting year and there can be a very small window of opportunity to make money on each event as the bookmakers realise and change the odds. Large money can’t be made this way and you are betting of sticking with your 9 – 5 job!

If all sports betting systems worked there would be no bookmakers as they would all be out of money. Methods of presenting systems may be getting more sophisticated but the systems are the same.

A popular system you may of come across is basically keep doubling your bet until you win! People actually sell this as a ‘system’ it is common sense that if you keep doubling your bet to cover a previous losing bet you will eventually win and be back in the black. But what is not commonly thought of is that if you had 10 losses in a row and your first bet was only £1 or $1 you would be betting over £1000 or $1000 to try and get back to winning ways and if you were unlucky enough to get to 14 straight loses it would cost you over £8000 or $8000 to try and get back to winning ways. You can see that very quickly you could lose a lot more than your savings.

The general rules of betting which should never be ignored are very simple.

1. Never bet money you can’t afford to lose

2. Never chase a loss

3. There is no such thing as a sure thing

There are very few systems out there that encourage you to embrace these simple rules. If they don’t follow those rules don’t buy them and if you do buy them ask for your refund. Also be wary of systems that don’t offer a money back guarantee of at least 60 days. You must have a period to test the system if there is no chance of a test period, don’t buy the system. I encourage you to paper bet before betting with money. Paper betting is learning the system and writing down what bets you would of placed without actually placing money on them. This can be frustrating as you may miss potential wins but the testing period is essential to make sure the system works without costing you money.

Another sign of whether a system is worth what you are paying for it is simple, is there any statistical proof of winnings? Obviously very few people will tell you what games they bet on until you buy the system but once you have bought the system can you answer yes to this question? Does the system provide a recent list of bets placed and results that are fully checkable? If the answer is no then ask for your refund there and then. Systems that worked in 2003 or 1993 might not work in 2007.

Also check the rules for internet betting in your country, especially if you are in the USA after the recent change in the law there.

My particular area of expertise is football or soccer betting. There is only one system out of the 1000’s out there that I can recommend looking at. It offers a 90 day money back guarantee and full current proof of betting and adheres to the basic rules of betting I mentioned earlier. It is proving extremely profitable for football (soccer) betting and could be used for other sports as long as you know the sport you intend to bet on. I strongly advise using paper betting even with this system and be sure to use the guarantee if you feel that it hasn’t worked (that is what it is there for!) Do you know that 95% of us will not ask for our money back even if we know we have a legitimate reason for requesting a refund!

World Cup 2006: Italy v Australia Betting Guide

March 24, 2009

FREE PICKS : CALL ME FOR THE FREE PICK ON THIS GAME 212-542-4477

Free Bets asked:


Italy v Australia

The Italians come into the game after topping Group E with 7 points. De Rossi is serving the second match of a four-match ban after his sending off against the USA, while Nesta will sit out the Kaiserslautern clash with a thigh strain.

Nesta has been struggling with the injury for the past couple of months and was substituted early in Italy’s 2-0 victory over the Czech Republic.

His replacement in that game, Marco Materazzi, is likely to take his place.

The Australians come into the game on the back of taking runners up spot behind Brazil. They will be without suspended full-back Brett Emerton, while Zeljko Kalac, who plays his football for AC Milan, will be replaced by Mark Schwarzer.

The Middlesbrough keeper was left out of the 2-2 draw with Croatia, but after Kalac’s poor display against the Croatians Schwarzer will return.

Scott Chipperfield will make his 50th appearance for the Socceroos, if he figures against Italy.

The Australians should by no means be underestimated for this tie. They seem to possess a never say die attitude which displayed itself against Croatia, in a game where Harry Kewell levelled things late on to put them through.

Italy, however, are a different class, they haven’t really impressed as such throughout the tournament, and are prone to indiscipline. They did raise their game against the Czech’s winning 2-0.

I think Australia are capable of getting a goal with Viduka and Kewell up front, but with Toni and the experienc of Inzaghi on the bench, they should squeeze through, but its going to be tough.

I’m going for a correct score shout here. Italy to win 2-1 @ 7/1

Went 3-1 with our MLB picks. Congrats to those who go in on it from our website. Our BETS BETS went 3-0 as we hit with the Cardinals over the Marlins, Dodgers over the Phillies, and Twins over Mariners. Lost with Blue Jays against A’s(sorry since that was the free pick). So on to today’s selection:

Florida(+170) OVER Cardinals(-180): After losing 8 in a row, Marlins realize they have a winnable game against 2-12 Cardinals pitcher Anthony Reyes! Florida’s bats have gone cold over the last week and here is a nice opportunity to get them back on track. Marlins pitcher Rick VandenHurk is nothing to write home about by up until recently, he had done a good job of keeping the team in most contests. Look for a Miguel Cabrera HR and a Marlins win!!!!
