Betting on sports has to be older than recorded history. We know that the Romans were fanatical about sports betting however the loser probably would not or couldn't show up for the next game.

World wide the total amount of money bet on sports has to be absolutely phenomenal some one some ware must be making a great deal of cash all I know is it certainly was not me.

Like most people betting on sports was all about fun for me I never thought of making serious money from it.

Although I did begin to realise that a little thought and common sense could save me a lot of dough and perhaps even make me some money. By way of example blindly betting on a team that you support just isn't the answer. It is important to stand back be analytical and detached with no personal involvement.

In the event that you are a true sports fan that maybe easier said than done so pick a sport that you do not follow and after that you just don't care who wins or looses. I find team sports to be the very best as games like golf just has too many variables and even favourites play a whole lot more tournaments than they win. Tennis I don't know enough about and can't judge. Look if you feel comfortable with these sports do not let me talk you out of it.

Alright so you have picked your sport or sports then what.

Well a friend and I sat down some time ago and put together a list or group of rules that we thought can help improve our chances they're.

Do not pick the obvious favourite as the returns for a win are too small and also the risk of a loss to great.

At the same time do not pick the under dog. Sure they might get up and make you an excellent return but the chances are they won't and you will have lost your hard earned money.

Look-at middle ranking situations alright it may seem hard to separate them but by doing your research by the staff of www.sideprojectors.com you shall find that you can. For instance does one side travel better than the other? What will be the history between the two sides? This is not just the teams but coaches also.

Are key players available? This really is vital and also can throw off rules 12&3 straight away.

What are this Sports Writers and Journalists saying and read more than one of their predictions as on there own they can be notoriously inaccurate. However in the event the majority pick the exact same result then the odds are that can be the correct one. If they can not make up their mind move on to another game as this one may be too close.

Limit the number of bets you make if you bet on every one you will inevitable lose.

Finally manage the amount that you bet we had a fund and 5% of it was the limit on anyone bet.

All of this made us a small profit but certainly not enough to boast about but we did enjoy ourselves.
