Work on Mistakes and Self-development in Sports Betting

It turns out that all player’s analytical work on bets takes place before the event. The extreme point is the moment of calculating a particular rate. If it has passed — well, if it has not passed — it is bad. But then they forget about the actions taken and move on, disassemble new matches, make new bets.

Why do you need to work on mistakes?

For more experienced and sophisticated betters, no less work happens after the next game period has passed. And it is right! To become successful in sports betting, as in any business, you need to go from an ignorant “green” beginner to a professional who knows a lot, understands and knows how to do his job.

This way of becoming a pro in betting inevitably implies development. Incorrect methods are determined and eliminated, and the correct ones are used more and more and further improved. Errors directly in forecasts and rates are eradicated. In their place come the right actions honed in practice in the past.

If there is no analysis of the steps taken, if there are no reasons for the failures, then the player will simply run in a circle, “rake”, repeating the same wrong actions. Actually, this is what we can observe in the gaming mainstream. Someone has not put things in order in their financial strategies.

It puts different amounts, without any clear reasons for such distribution, and even “broke” walks on how much money there. He loses and again waits for a free penny to merge it in the office. Someone has been collecting expresses for 20 events for decades.

Someone with tenacity worthy of the best application puts on the same adventurous betting options, although it would have been worthwhile to exclude them from their practice for a long time. And many more errors of various kinds, which are not detected and not fixed.

And all because there is no very stage of work with these errors. Be smarter! If you already got involved in the topic of bets (as in any other), please be kind to develop, and not rely on luck. Betting is a difficult, risky direction. Here only those who work on themselves achieve success.

Well, let’s take a look at typical sections of betting activities, where it is worth looking for errors and correcting them.

Identification and correction of errors in the financial strategy

In various articles on the site, we have repeatedly dealt with issues of goal setting in rates, as well as various financial strategies. Check out these materials in the appropriate sections. Here we point out that for a start it is worth taking a look at financial cuisine. This is an important layer of betting. Eliminating errors here will allow you to increase revenue, reduce losses and, in general, establish a successful model of your game in the future.

First you need to evaluate the quartet of parameters:

• starting bank;
• target;
• distance;
• financial strategy.

After another unsuccessful game segment, think: do you have a goal? If so, is it realistic with respect to the existing starting bank and the distance assigned? Perhaps you are trying to jump over the Himalayan Range with a standard six-meter pole. A sober look at this ratio will help determine how you play best and which financial strategy to choose. Examples can be taken in the reviews of strategies on our website.

Revision of game strategies

Following the financial add-on that dominates your entire betting system, game strategies follow. It’s one thing if you randomly bet on different types of matches, on different teams, on the most diverse outcomes. Another, if you follow a few specific game strategies. Here appears systematic, regularity and order.

After the next gaming period, you should see which bets, which game models give you the most wins, pluses, and which ones lose more often. For completeness, it’s best to analyze your past bets for a month or two. So the picture will be more complete, and the selection more objective.

Next comes the stage of forming conclusions. You simply exclude from your practice those game strategies that work worse. Concentrate on selecting matches for those strategies that have shown their best side. Such a cleaning is not yet a guarantee of the golden mountains at the stakes, but it is already a considerable step towards improving the game.

If you have difficulties with discipline, literally make yourself a poster or diagram in a working betting notebook. There, write down the goal for the game segment, indicate the starting bank, the distance and the financial strategy that you are following. Immediately indicate those game models that you use. And do not go beyond that.

We anticipate the question: what to do if you really want to put on something that is not suitable for the indicated game strategies? The answer is simple. Do not put it! In any case, do not set aside a bank dedicated to your main serious game. You can separately allocate a small bank to flirt here such whims.

But the amount should be minimal. Literally open an account in another shop and bet on all spontaneous whims for $10, or whatever the minimum limit is. They set and calmed down, and use the main bank only for a serious game according to the chosen scheme.

Of course, after 2-3 full game cycles, you can and should do a system revision. Here both the goal and the strategies are adjusted. But this must be done meaningfully, based on the conclusions of the past period. And so is continuous improvement.

Selection and screening of bet types

Of great importance is the selection and screening of types of bets. For example, over time, you will be convinced that simple bets come in better: with a double chance, 1X or X 2, zero handicaps, simple wins, handicaps (-1), individual totals more or less than one. Conversely, big handicaps (-1.5) and higher, double bets on the outcome plus total, on draws, player goals, events in time or time periods and the like regularly fail.

Everyone, based on the chosen sport and their own experience, should conduct improvement on the choice of outcomes. So you filter out the types of bets that fail you more often. Even if the overall forecast was correct, but due to complexity, the bet does not play. On the other hand, your confidence and commitment to other types of bets is growing. Their circle narrows and grows stronger. So it is necessary to act. And without working on errors, it is impossible to identify the most optimal types of bets.

Work on errors in specific bets

When a bet loses, you should not forget about it at the same second. You should understand the reasons for the loss. If you could not personally watch the progress of a sporting event live, then at least look at the review, or record the game in rewind mode. This will give an understanding: either the forecast was incorrect, or force majeure happened. About the reasons why bets lose, we also gave a separate great material.

So, if the bet didn’t go down, and the forecast was essentially correct, you need to either accept such a result, write off it as an accident, which also happens in sports; or take a closer look at the selected bet type. Perhaps the error lies there. If the team you bet on was just unlucky, continue to consider it in the future. If the forecast turned out to be incorrect, something in the team’s game went wrong as you saw before the match, then this is an occasion for serious conclusions. You need to understand what specifically let the athletes and you with your bet. If the reason is objective, then this is already a factor for forecasts for future matches. Either they do not temporarily put on this team at all, or they adjust the choice of outcomes.

With this approach, the formal attitude to bets disappears. If the correct conclusions are made, then the following forecasts become more accurate and objective. So experience is gained. And without working on the bugs, the run along a series of “rakes” would continue.

Good Practice Findings

The reverse process also takes place. It is necessary to analyze not only lost bets, but also those that played as a plus. Here we draw conclusions and notice that in our forecast was key to success. Perhaps we are making adjustments to the future approach to the team. For example, we notice that attack players are gaining shape. So in the future you can bet not just on victory, but also part of the bet allot on odds (-1) or a higher individual total. This is just one example. There may be many nuances. In any case, positive experience needs to be concentrated. In the future, exploit the techniques that worked best in the past.

This does not mean that one should be stubborn. Templates do not work, or do not work at all for a long time. We lead to the fact that you need to show flexibility from tour to tour, and not try to go for a long time on the patterns that were noticed long ago.

Work on psychological mistakes

Psychology is an essential aspect of success in betting. Many players make mistakes and psychological orientation. It’s the hardest to work with, because we are always alone in bets, one on one with the bookmaker. There is no “uncle with a stick” who will stand behind us and beat us in the arms when we are going to break our own plan. Everything here with the prefix “self”: self-discipline, self-development. But many even come to “suicide”, in the sense of a bank drain due to a minute eclipse and failure of discipline.

We can only indicate here that in the psychological plane there are many vulnerabilities for successful betting. Be aware of this and try to keep up, comply with your own rules. As recommended earlier, for adventurous bets and decisions, open a separate small account and get out there, putting down the minimum amounts. Remember that no one except you can reach your goal in betting. Likewise, no one except you can destroy your game bank. Think about it.

Conclusions

As we have shown, work on mistakes and constant self-development are very important in the field of betting. Without this stage, growth and progress are impossible. He who does not make out his success, and especially his mistakes, just runs around like a squirrel in a wheel and cannot break out to a whole new level. Take action to your betting practice, and feel the result. He will not be long in coming. Progress will not be instant, but inevitable.
