it's very difficult because sometimes I bet on big favorites who unexpectedly lose

You have to follow bankroll management just as you need to in poker. If you put all your money on a big favorite, eventually that favorite will lose and you will lose everything.

I win exactly half the time because I use a random number generator to make my picks on points and spread on basketball or american football where the rake is lowest.
 
It is all about finding the edge against the sportsbook just like betting for value in poker.

If you have an edge in sports you will need a proper bankroll just like poker so you can handle the swings.

Betting on large favourites can still be +EV and you expect to lose less but nothing is guaranteed.
 
I go for horse racing trebles in 888 when I win free cash, have win a few before, pretty random bets. I did win up for 8 on 888 once, predicted 8 correct soccer matches.

Sports betting is difficult, and 888 poker and pokerstars in that market are not the best, there are other sites with better promotions and large markets to bet on, on pokerstar I have also noticed that the odds are more disadvantaged than on other sites
 
The lowest rake I have found on pokerstars is 4.5 percent (usually to be found on spread or points in american football or basketball). How does this compare to other sportsbetting sites?
 
I've already tried a few bets but unfortunately I haven't managed to win until today.
 
no way... These windows don't even open for me... It is possible that third-party betting companies are blocking in Belarus...
 
I see sports betting as a hobby, I like to bet and cheer, always betting what I can spend, because getting rich from this is impossible, there are big bettors who have succeeded, but it's rare, and they have a lot of money to bet , as they say, to make money, you have to spend money!
 
The crazy part is I do not Gamble! Friends often say "But you play Poker" but I don't consider Poker as gambling, On-line I have never lost a single Penny because I have always started playing freerolls, and only when I have accrued enough money do I ever start to buy-in to games, So I am using Virtual money, I never had in the first place.
As for live Games I consider the Buy-in as the Ticket price I have to pay to enter the Game. Just like the entrance price for a Cinema visit or Football match. I have occasionally played at cash tables but don't go out of my way to play them. I prefer Tournaments and really don't care if I Win or Lose, as long as I can play for 2 or 3 hours, I can say I had a good game.
Gambling can be problematic when it starts to impact your Family and Friends around you, I know from experience, Been there, Done that, and got the T-Shirt. But I quit Gambling over 40 Years ago, so that I didn't cause my Family and Friends any undue worry.
I started playing Poker on-line, over 20 years ago, and made a promise to my Wife I would not deposit on any on-line poker site, I still haven't and do not intend to, If I cannot play on-line for free, I Don't Play!
 
0% success.I don´t want to put in risk my banroll.That is why I only play poker
 
I have won when $15 dollars two times when I have won a sports bet on the free wheel spin I bet mostly on tennis as golf as these are sports that I follow
 
Ezeken az oldalakon van ingyenes sportfogadás? A 888sport nem érhető el Magyarországon.
 
I won $1,340 on 888Sport up for 8 prediction game, correctly predicted 8/8 soccer results. Won some free bets on horse trebles also. Every little helps.

Favorites in sports are like AA in poker. If our all-inn with AAs is called by 4-5 players, the value of our AAs will be dramatically lower. It's the same in sports: underdogs always have more desire to beat the favorite than on the contrary. As well as the favorites very often underestimate the opponent. And this is never taken in consideration by the bookies in their odds. But when the favorite loses several matches in a row, he is no longer a favorite (and the odds on him increase due to failures), but his desire to win will be higher than when he was a clear favorite. And this is just one of dozens of nuances of proper game analytics. That is why only a small % of people win in betting. 🙂
 
Of all the times I played, which were not a few, I only won once. It doesn't matter if I bet on the favorites or the underdogs, I lose.
 
Wow did they ever increase the rake lately on pokerstars sportsbetting. Instead of 4.5 percent on the spread and points on American football and basketball it is now at about 7.5 percent so it has almost doubled! Approximately what is it on other sportsbetting sites?
 
Now it looks like the free daily one dollar sportsbet might be gone forever. But it did last a long time. perhaps it was about a year?

I like to play both 888 and Pokerstars are cool to play and I've won both and I always enjoy playing on these platforms
 
On pokerstars are there any players in any countries that are given any free sportsbets anymore? It sure has changed. Around two years ago during March madness it was unreal how many sportsbetting promotions there were and now nothing at least for me in Canada.
 
I used to place bets when I was younger, but I don't bet at all and only play poker, I think the bets are more suitable for luck and you can lose even more there because the variance is huge and you don't play yourself, but other players play, I think it's better not to do it or place bets
