Learning to Bet Money During the Match

Bets during the match are in demand. You can watch the broadcast and guess the outcome in real time. If luck is on your side, then you will receive a win very soon. But if you do not develop a strategy and do not monitor the bank, then live bets are the right way to financial loss.

Live betting — what is it?

Live bets are bets that can be placed during a sporting event. The confrontation between a bookmaker and a player takes place in real time. Both follow the event and try to get ahead of each other.

The task of a bookmaker is not to miss an important point, calculate the probability in time and change odds on the website. A player also monitors what is happening and tries to seize the moment in order to make the best bet for themselves.

Bookmakers are sometimes a little tricky. If something important happens during a sporting event, they stop accepting bets.

Let’s say one of the teams earned a penalty in regular time. The attacker comes to a point, a goalkeeper takes their position. A judge blows a whistle — you can beat. At this point, several events at once become easier to predict. Most likely, the goal will still be. If a penalty is awarded near the end of the game, the goal may be decisive. A player who shoots a penalty is likely to chalk up a useful action. Or maybe for them this is the second goal per game. This is the best moment to make live bets on the outcome, total, scored penalty, goal of a specific player.

And for the bookmaker this is the moment of distribution of free prizes. That is why the acceptance of bets resumes only after the situation ceases to be easily predictable. Of course, the acceptance of bets is resumed with new odds, which take into account all the events that have taken place.

Pros and cons of live betting

Betting during the match is quite controversial. There are players who comprehend Zen live betting and find their strategy. But you can’t generalize. Once a bookmaker made a section with such bets on their website, then they earn on it.

Pros

Quick result

Live betting is like an instant lottery. You bought a ticket, erased the protective layer and it is immediately clear — won or not. The bookmaker’s website works the same way. You visited the website, chose the outcome, made a bet. And you wait for the event to end.

Sometimes the outcome of a bet is clear long before the end of a match. If you bet on total over 0.5 in football, then you can relax as soon as one of the teams scores a goal. So when you want to quickly try your luck, live bets are the most.

More information

Not even the most thorough pre-match analysis can provide absolutely all the details. During the match or shortly before it starts, something may go wrong.

In a pre-match training session, a player may be injured and not enter the field. What if it’s the goalkeeper or the best striker. Bookmakers will immediately notice this and recalculate the odds. Therefore, if you want to make a pre-match bet, it is better to wait for the announcement of at least the starting lineups.

If a player received a yellow card during the match, the probability of deletion is higher than before the start of the game. You can make additional bets.

Often the result of a match depends on who scores first. Before the game it is not clear who will open the account, since the forces are approximately equal. Once a goal is scored, you can bet.

One of the teams may not play a trivial game. Pre-match analytics made the team a favorite, but there is simply no chance of winning the game. Just watch the first 10-15 minutes to assess the dynamics.

There are a lot of examples. There is much more information in live and you can make accurate predictions based on the nuances noticed during the game.

Wide range of events

You can watch several matches at the same time. In one — the probability of removal is high, in the other — a team gives a lot of corners, in the third — some other feature. And such observations can be combined into accumulators.

Deep preliminary analytics of any one match will not give such a choice as viewing several matches simultaneously. This is also often used to increase odds and increase the number of bets.

Cons

Technical problems

Imagine the situation. There is a tennis match, one of the players catches courage and wins the game on the opponent’s pitch. It is very likely that this courage will last at least until the end of the set, or maybe the fate of the match has already been decided. Suppose you notice this, but the bookmaker still does not believe and does not lower the odds. You are in a hurry to place a bet: select the amount, click on the bet registration button. But nothing happens. The waiting wheel in the browser spins, and then error 404 pops up. After the fourth or fifth page refresh, the error disappears. But the high odds also disappear, because the rout has already begun on the court, and the bookmaker has recalculated the odds.

Technical problems are best insured in advance. It makes sense to create accounts in different bookmakers. If one website crashes, you can switch to another.

It’s better to replenish the balance of accounts before the match, so that at the most crucial moment you just have to click on the bet button and not start entering bank card details.

Betting is best done with a laptop that is connected to the Internet via cable. So you solve two possible problems at once. Firstly, the Internet will not fall off unexpectedly. Secondly, even with a power outage in your home, the laptop will continue to work with the built-in battery, and you can make a bet.

Odds are lower

The bookmaker understands that during the match you have the most relevant information. It is unlikely that it will be possible to grab good odds for a guaranteed outcome.

When a team leads with a difference of three goals five minutes before the end of the match, only a miracle can happen for the second team to recoup. For such an outcome, the bookmaker will give odds of no more than 1.01. To get the most out of this match, it makes sense to look through the total category. If you feel that there will be another goal before the final whistle, it is better to bet on Total Over 3.5.

Bookmaker tricks

At any time during the match the opportunity to place bets may be lost. At such moments, the bookmaker recounts the odds and updates them on the website. This may be due to what is happening on the field or the bookmaker noticed a sharp increase in the number of bets on some outcome. Such a pause allows the bookmaker to understand the situation, and players lose the opportunity to earn.

How to bet during a match?

The bet during the match is the same as the pre-match. You need to go to the event on the bookmaker’s website, select the outcome, indicate the amount. The bet is made — it’s not difficult. But the live betting strategies are slightly different from the pre-match ones.

On the favorite who started unsuccessfully

In any sport, lots can reduce a clear favorite and an outsider. Pre-match odds are disadvantageous: at best 1.1 for the win of the favorite. 1.1 should not be bet on. It’s better to start watching the match and navigate along the way.

For example, in a tennis match, a favorite makes a mistake in the first installment and misses the game on their serve. While the players have a lot of strength, such a mistake is likely to grow into a fight and exhaust both athletes. Experienced players are ready to give the set, while saving energy and exhausting the opponent.

In this situation, the bookmaker looks only at the score and evaluates only it. If the favorite has lost the set, then the odds on their victory can double or even triple.

This is the best time to bet. Further rested favorite fully included in the game and replayed the tired outsider. The main thing is to correctly determine that it was a deliberate maneuver. An outsider can catch courage and squeeze a favorite.

Such logic is suitable not only for tennis, but also for any other sport.

Against a draw

This strategy combines the right pre-match and live bets. Before the start of the match, you need to find good odds for the victory of one of the teams. And then — watch the match and wait for someone in this match to come forward. In this case, the odds on a draw will increase. A bet placed on these odds will insure the pre-match.

Live accumulator

In order to increase the live bet odds, you need to collect accumulators from events in simultaneously running matches. This is easiest to do in football.

A proven strategy is 3×85. We need to wait 85 minutes and bet that there will be no more goals in two or three simultaneously running matches. Such an accumulator will give odds of up to 1.6. And the probability that there will be no more goals is higher, because in the last minutes the teams try to dry the game and keep the score.

Common errors in live betting

Large amounts

In the last minutes of the match, it seems that nothing will happen. Beginners believe that the odds of 1.05 3 minutes before the end of the match guarantees them 5% of net profit in their pocket. But what is 5%. With 100 dollars a bet is just plus 5 dollars. The player linearly projects 5% on a large bet amount and mentally wins 5 thousand. Such a gain seems tangible. The bid is made.

But suddenly at the last second the team scores a goal, the bet does not pass. A large amount is lost. The paradox is that the player did not want to make such a big bet. They were prompted by a feeling of excessive control over the situation. This must not be allowed, you can lose too much.

Attempts to recoup

This is the second mistake that often goes in conjunction with the first. Suppose a player made a large bet on low odds, but this bet does not pass. In such a situation, the player panic and begins to think how to quickly get back. The easiest option is to make another bet in the same match for a new outcome. But to win back, you need to bet even more. So the player will return to the first error and make it again.

How live odds are changing

Only in the live line the odds of winning the favorite of the meeting can suddenly become higher than those of the outsider or vice versa. This may be due not only to the goal scored (for example, in football), but also due to the injury, weather conditions and the general condition of the team. Betting analysts also monitor what is happening and immediately respond to all changes that may affect one or another outcome of the event. Fans of bets do not always agree with the fidelity of these bookmaker estimates and in some cases this makes it possible to “catch” more attractive quotes for the chosen outcome than they were in the pre-match line.

Example: The German Cup match Bayern Munich — Heidenheim. The odds for the hosts’ victory in this meeting before the match were 1.08. However, after 39 minutes, Heidenheim won with a score of 1-2, and the hosts have been removed. The odds for the victory of “Bavaria” rose to 2.12. As a result, Bayern “pulled out”, and the match ended with a score of 5-4 in their favor, but for those who bet it on live, this made it possible to bet on this victory with much higher odds.

Where can you make live bets?

Bets during the match can be made on the website of any bookmaker. Live betting is one of the most popular sections. Players want to win a lot and quickly, so the first thing they do is go live.

However, bookmakers are not always honest with players. The bookmaker may turn off the acceptance of bets on some live events, or may void the bet placed on odds that they did not manage to change.

To prevent such incidents, it is better to bet in legal bookmakers who value their reputation and do not do such things.

Tips for betting live

1. One of the grossest mistakes in online sports betting is to focus only on low odds, i.e. on a temporary favorite of the match. As noted above, during the game the result can change several times both in one direction and in the other direction.
• Go to a bookmaker and place your bets right now.
2. Very often, players like to bet on the current account in the hope that nothing will happen over the remaining time. This is a great misconception that threatens with losses. In no case can you play all-in, hoping that the winner is clear, and nothing will happen in the remaining time.
3. Each sport has its own characteristics, and you need to understand them before the start of the game on bets. For example, it should be borne in mind a number of differences between men’s and women’s tennis. If in men’s tennis the fights are more or less stable, then in women’s tennis the difference in results can be simply enormous: an athlete can lead 5-0 and ultimately lose 5-7. In men’s tennis, this also happens, but much less often. There are many such features, and they should not be overlooked.
• Free sports predictions 24 hours a day.
4. No need to bet on obvious mistakes in the line of the bookmaker. Moreover, you should not bet an arb in this situation. In case, if such a bet plays, bookmaker is likely to make a return — you do not put it in their pocket, but the risk of losing money in the sport is always there.

A sporting event is a dynamic phenomenon, often having an intricate plot in which the “expected” outcome can change repeatedly. Sometimes such changes occur over relatively short intervals of time, and sometimes even instantly! By doing live betting, you can win much (under favorable circumstances and luck), and very quickly lower your entire bank as well. The process of live betting is very similar to exchange trading, and therefore this type of betting is the lot of experienced players, but for beginners who do not know the many nuances, this can be fraught with loss of funds.
