Winning Handicapping Tips to Help You Develop a Successful Sports Betting System
The secret of successful sports betting is handicapping. Handicapping is essentially being able to choose which team will win in a particular game, and it is at the heart of any successful sports betting system. To become a successful handicapper, you have to be on top of everything about the different teams playing in a particular sport that you're focusing on. In short, it involves a lot of research and a lot of work. But doing the work increases the chances that you will make winning bets consistently. And, anyway, if you're passionate about a particular player or team, you're probably already reading everything you can find about them. Here are some tips for developing your handicapping skills.
1. Be familiar with all the factors that could affect the performance of a team and ultimately, the outcome of a game. For example, you might think that news that a team's star player is having an affair with a notorious starlet would not factor into their performance. But if he allows this affair to distract him and affect his playing, it could result in the rest of the team also playing below par and them losing or at least, not winning by as many points as you would expect. Find out as much as you can about the teams you're betting on.
2. Watch as many games as you can, and not just those on which you have a bet. Gathering information is one thing. But you can also gauge a lot about a team by watching how they perform on the field. You may also start to notice how particular players or combinations affect the overall performance of the team, which may give you an idea of how to predict the outcome of future matches.
3. Study handicapping tips online. These guys are professionals and it's their job to look at all the variables, follow the news and then make their predictions. Pick two handicappers that you trust, look at their predictions and then compare them with the actual outcome of the game. You can even try matching your wits against them to see how your predictions compared with theirs.
