Waste Wheelers

I see this term used a lot in online sports betting teaser betting. What kind of betting is this?

Mostly used in football. Bottom line is you pick multiple games, and get added points added to the teams you pick, but you have to win all the games. Because of the added points, the games look so good, it’s a tease.

For example, you might find the Packers -8 vs the Lions, and the Cowboys -7 vs the Redskins.

Well, you could do a 6 point Teaser on the Packers and Cowboys. Then GB is only -2, and Dallas only -1 (because you are getting 6 points). Looks tempting, doesn’t it?

Depending on the site will depend on the odds you give up on these types of bets. They are sucker plays… but I admit I will do them once in awhile.

I am interested in making profits through betting at sports like football but I am not a gambler. What betting system is best to follow?

You can try this foot ball bet directory here, I tried it & earned some money.

I am trying to find (preferably online) somewhere that has historical betting data. Nothing too complex, my specific task is to see, for horse racing (all types) and football statistics on how often the favourite was the winner and if possible, what the odds were for the favourite before the race or game. Details on other sports would be very good as well, but I thought I would stick to the two main ones.

Any help or pointers as to where to look, greatly appreciated.

You can find the archive odds for all major football league at CheckBestOdds.com. For example archive odds for football matches in England you have here:

Looking to make £10 a day from betting from home computer.
Just need peoples views of best and reliable sources to go with.

I personally use The Sports Betting Champ. http://www.thereviewgeneral.com/sportschamp.php

I signed up for Mr. Morrisons and my bankroll almost quadrupled in one week.

Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.

I am just wondering as to whether I should consider trading CFD’s or spread betting for live as I have done great in them in practice demo accounts? Also, if yes, then what vehicle should I begin with out of the two as I only want to choose one? Please help/advise. Thanks.

Did your demo take commissions and bid/offer spreads into account? If not, then it is not realistic.

Forget spread betting. If you’re a beginner, you do not know enough.

Don’t think about actively trading stocks or CFDs as a beginner. Learn how to research stocks. Learn the mechanics of buy and hold first.

Why rush to be a lamb among wolves? Stock markets can be a wonderful place to invest, but only if you’re willing to work at it and proceed at a reasonable pace.

I am a newbie in Forex can anybody tell me what are the advantages of spread betting.

1. Tax exempt profits: Yes, you have read right. One of the main reasons why people just love spread betting is that the earnings from it are tax free. So, this is one thing one can involve in to earn some extra profit and that too totally tax free. The reason is that there is no physical exchange between the betting person and the company; it is only a contract without involving any exchange of commodities. Apart from this there is stamp duty exemption also. This makes the stock much cheaper.

2. High profits with less investment: This type of betting is also known as trading on margin. This means that a person does not loose everything if things go against him. Hence, one is not required to pay all the payment in one go. Because of this, the profits are comparatively high with less investment.

3. Commission free: In case of conventional betting one needs to pay a broker fee to the broker however this is not the case in a scenario of financial spread betting. Hence, when one talks about buying and selling, the later term is much more cost effective. Here, a person can involve in to various buying and selling transaction without spending extra money as broker fee for doing so.

4. Trade beyond trade hours: Almost all spread betting companies work for twenty four hours a day. Because of this, a person can actually involve in to financial spread betting without worrying about trading hours. This is another benefit of spread betting over conventional betting.

5. Huge amount of capital is not required: There are so many new investors who are taking up this newer concept of betting. The main reason for this is that in case of this kind of betting, it does not require huge amount of capital to start. Anyone with limited capital can also venture in spread betting.

6. Facilities for credit: If someone is experience and people know him for his credibility, it is easy for that person to bet in the spread betting market on credit.

7. Fast dealings: Transactions can be completed within one single minute. The reason for this is that here in this case, there are no brokers involved. This saves a lot of times of transactions. Another thing to note down is that in old or normal betting world, a person can only bet when there is another person to bet with. However, in case of spread betting, one can bet even when there is no other person available as the betting is done with companies working for twenty four hours a day.

With so many advantages, it is natural that more and more people are attracted towards this comparatively newer concept of betting. Who would not want to maximise their profits with minimum capital investment. And above everything, tax free earnings are always welcomed!!

I want to try some online sports betting. I am not a big gambler just want to buy in with 100 see what i can do with it. If you have any input on some good sites that do pay out and accept americans please let me know.

Thanks: Rob

especially for you on:http://www.gamblingcarnival.com/sportsbetting.htm

I dont see how the online sports betting sites profit money? How do they get there share? Other then usually having there own casino added to the site

Simply put:

You bet $110 on Team A.
I bet $110 on Team B.

One of us wins, one of us loses.

Let’s say you win. You win $100 profit, plus you keep your $110 bet. So you get back $210.

The sportsbook collected $110 from you plus $110 from me for $220 total. They only paid out $210 to you!

They made $10 and it made no difference which one of us won the game.

On betfair placing a bet on a football match on which team will win. The bet does not count once the game has gone in extra time when no team has scored. If I place a bet in a betting shop, it does not work like that does it?

There is no big difference with online and offline betting, just read the rules of the bets you play. The only difference is that online you get better odds.

In other countries, particularly in Britain, you can bet on virtually anything, and turf accountants are all over. Here we are limited to betting at the track and OTCs are licensed in only certain states. I’m not much of a gambler, but it would be nice to be able to bet on something other than the lottery on a regular basis, especially if one follows sports, etc., and have it be in a public forum. We all know that billions of dollars trade hands on Superbowl and that there are bookies and so forth.

I’d assume it’s because some states have laws against it, or restrictions? It really isn’t the greatest thing to be proud of though … the British are known for their bookies, and not necessarily in a positive light. Some of them are addicted to it, then they head off to the pub and get drunk. What a life. There are bookies in other parts of Europe but not to the same extent as in the UK.
