Selecting an Effective Range of Odds

This week's soccer tip or guide is about how to select the most effective range of odds. In order to obtain a 10% yield you need a 61% hit rate combined with average odds at 1.80, if the average odds is 1.90 you need a 58% hit rate and when the average odds is 2.00 you need a 55% hit rate. At 2.20 you want a hit rate of 50% to obtain a 10% yield. Profitable bettors usually have a hit rate between 50 and 65%, which means that odds between 1.70 and 2.20 will be the most effective.

Lower odds, such as 1.60 and under, need a very high hit rate to provide a decent yield. Also, when you start to lose bets it will take longer to build up the bank again. Odds below 1.60 are simply not good enough to compensate losing bets. Odds above 2.20 are too risky, especially on football/soccer. Of course this varies depending on the sport. In tennis you can have a 45% hit rate and also higher average odds, even up to around 2.40, as in this case you are on duels with a 2-way outcome.

• 1. Straight win: This option is marked 1×2, and it entails that one of the two teams will likely win, therefore, if you feel the home team will win just click on 1, if you feel the away team will win just click on 2.It is a very risky option however it comes with huge odds and bonuses


• 2. Over and under 1.5-4.5: This options deals with goals, it means over and under 2 goals, 3goals, and 4 goals. These options should be used when two high scoring teams are playing.

• 4. BTS: This bet means both teams to score, while in some bookies sites it is known as Goal Goal. What these simply means that it is highly likely that both teams will score at least one goal against each other. This option should be chosen when the teams playing have a porous defense. Let’s say for example an Arsenal team is playing against Liverpool. Both teams are a high scoring team and have a very shaky defense.
