Is it possible for a person to earn a living by trading on Betfair.
It all depends on you, the individual. Online betting is more than just a view on any race’s outcome. To succeed online, you must be able to think clearly and not chase down losses.
Before deciding whether a horse is worth the investment, there are many factors that a punter must consider 농구토토.
Favorites tend to win 33% of the times. This is why punters often ignore certain clues from horses past performances and blindly follow their lead. It does not mean that everyone is betting on the favourite to win. You end up with an expensive favourite that is no better than a donkey on Brighton’s beach. However, I doubt this would be the type of ride you want if you are planning to visit Brighton for a day.
Horse trainers are observant people who know the capabilities of horses within their yards. Problem is how much weight the handicapper can expect them to carry if they win a race. A trainer’s ideal scenario is for all horses to win by one length. This makes it easier for the assessors. A horse can win by more than 10 lengths and be penalized 9lb. The question is, was the horse really that good? Or were the horses just a little better than expected?
The trainer will place a well-favoured horse in a twopenny racing event with one goal. The horse is not racing to win. It’s there to lower its handicap to make it more profitable for later races. They know their horse could win the PS20,000 race in three months if it carries 10lb less than its current weight.
How often do you believe the 5/4 favourite is a good investment? It is able to run on the right terrain. It is on its best trip. You end up lumping it on like the rest of the sheep, only to see your investment sink faster than an Audley Harman comeback. Did you know it has a preference for which track? Do you prefer it running right or left handed? Is it more comfortable running on a flat track? Or have its best runs been on undulating tracks. How is the stable performing right now? How many stable horses are currently running at their handicap mark?
If you have the privilege of being privy to inside information, it is not easy to assess a favourites chance. This is important to remember. Do not follow the majority.
You will win more often than the average Saturday punter if you are smart and do your research before you make any investment.
