Betting is the ultimate money game for the sports fan. If you know your favorite sport inside and out, you can overcome "the juice", Beat the Bookies and fatten your wallet. Also, placing a sports bet makes the outcome of the game more meaningful and the game itself more enjoyable and thrilling.
The main object of sports betting is to beat the Bookies and win some money. Betting is done through Online Bookies that accept bets. You need to state what you are betting on by making a selection, the type of bet and the amount you are wagering. Your selection will obviously depend on the odds offered, so you will want to examine the range of odds available before you make a decision. There are many types of bets you can place. Some Bookies may offer more betting varieties and combinations than others.
Match odds
This is also known as 1X2, this is the easiest type and most common type of betting. You can bet on three different options: Home win(1), Draw(x) or Away Win(2). An example would be. England. 1.89 Draw. 2.50 Ireland. 2.30 First you have to choose a wager amount. If the one you pick wins, you get stake back on top of your winnings. Multiply the odds to find out winnings. Say you bet £100 on England winning their next foorball match. The Bookie initially takes £100 from your online betting account. If England then go on towin you get £100 and your winnings back (£100 x 1.89 - £100).
Double
A double is made up of two bets. Both must be right for you to win. For example, you place a £100 double bet on Spain and England: Ukraine 2.25 to beat Czech republic England 1.80 to beat Ireland. If both teams win, you get back your £100 stake, plus your winnings (£100 x 1.77 x 1.64) = you make a profit of £305.
Treble
A treble is made up of three bets. All three must be right in order for you to win. For example, you place a £100 treble bet on Ukraine, England and USA. Ukraine 2.30 to beat Spain England 1.71 to beat Paraguay USA 1.56 to beat Croatia If all of them win, you get back your £100 stake, plus your winnings (£100 x 2.30 x 1.71 x 1.56) = £513.
