    Just for a bit of interest, what is your favorite bet or market to bet on ?
    What do you find profitable in the long term over the season?

    I was having a few team to win and both teams to score bets last season and had a couple of good results so I will give them another go soon.

    I will be keeping a record of all bets made this season so I can see how I am doing. I bought a business studies book 2, in easons for a few cents and it has all lined columns so its easy to keep track of bets in it :) . A bit old fashioned but it does the job. I am gagging for a football bet , but have not bet since last season ended, I will start again in September when things settle down a bit in the leagues.

    Usually first half asain handicap,can be very profitable .Trying to find the game is the key.

    As in usually would be staying away from premier league bundisliga,usually lower league games,women games can be good.

    Lamos, are you asking for entertainment factor, or money making factor?

    Paddy used to have a market for total goal line in a group of games in a league, kicking off at a certain time. For example, total goals in all the 3pm kick offs in the PL. On a few occasions they had it over/under 6.5 or 8.5 with only one game on at the time. I went overboard when it was over/under 12.5 in La Liga with one game on and the market hasn't been open since. God, it was the easiest money I ever made.

    Laying goalscorers on betfair has been quite profitable for me. Some goalscorers are backed at stupidly short prices.

    A bit of both really. It's nice when your selections come in , but even better when you make a good return on your money :)

    Entertainment factor, would be a decent AT goalscorer bet, as it'll last 90 minutes. I havn't been betting as much lately, but I always liked doing Double Chances.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,862 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    In general i like the ones that dont need the full 90 minutes to come in.
    Goal totals and such

    Asian goal lines over 1.0 if one goal is scored you can relax as you have money back and then hope for another for a win, lesser odds than just doing over 1.5 goals but nice to have the cushion.

    I do over 1.5 goals a fair bit. Never considered Asian handicap, think I'll look at it now though, some poor selections lately, awful lot of 1-0's for me. Even last week's midweek cup games in England. Only 3 games with less than 2 goals I think, and I managed to find 2 of them😄

    Over 2.5 goals for me recently and first anytime scorers in the MLS..

    'shown a card' market on betfair is one of my favorites. you can get some great prices too - but theres no money up until about an hour before kickoff. very exciting when your player makes a late challenge!
