subject: The Introduction to sports betting [print this page] The sports business is everywhereThe sports business is everywhere. Its touching every person in some way or another.
Professional Sports is an enormous business, the stakes are high, and the
difference between winning and losing can be no more than a hair's breadth.
As a prospective sports bettor, you're probably already aware that the sports
industry doesn't end as soon as one steps outside the lines. Wagering on professional
sports is one of the biggest businesses in the entire world. Wagering on the NFL alone
generates well into eleven figures over a five month period; one estimate listed the total
amount wagered on pro football at upwards of $36 billion.
Proffesional sports touch everyone in some way, and everyone has access to the same
information. Theoretically, everyone should be equally good at wagering on sports, right?
Wrong. Just like the athletes on the field, in the business of sports wagering, winning and
losing are often separated by the narrowest of margins. The stars on the field prepare well
in advance in order to achieve the best result, and if you want to get the best results from
your wagering, you should do the same. This leads us to the First Rule of sports
wagering:
FIRST RULE FOR WAGERING: View your wager as investment.
No one puts significant money into a stock because "they feel like it." Only after
careful research and analysis of the wager at hand should you invest in the stock market,
and for the investor who treats the stock market as a science and invests methodically,
handsome rewards can be earned. In the same way, your wagering should be as impartial
and rational as possible. If you know the odds then you know when the odds are on your
side, and with a scientific approach behind you, you should feel confident that you have
made as objective and calculating a decision as possible. So read on, learn how to break
down the numbers, beat the odds, and get the Inside Advantage. If learning how to
successfully bet pro sports is a foreign language, this is your phrase book.
