Online sports betting

Many people are attracted to the idea of being able to make sports bets from home, although some have not just taken the plunge because it is a new world and it seems complicated to understand from the outside. Very different from what has happened with online casinos, that everyone is familiar with that type of game.

Actually making sports bets is the simplest, but it is true that there is a new language around that scares some, and partly it is because many terms are in English. A language that, on the other hand, overcoming the first fear is the simplest and most logical.

Sports betting is much more than betting on your favorite team!

Once you register at the casino you will see that you have all kinds of help, where you can clarify all the concepts that you do not see clear. The best bookmakers have sections where they explain to their new players or the most clueless, the types of bets and have dictionaries that will always get you out of a hurry.

What is the quota

One of the terms that you have to know right away will be the Odds, which are all those numbers and indicators that are shown next to the events that we are going to bet on. This index indicates what the amount will be, the profit that the bookmaker will pay us for each $ or $ if the bet on that event is correct. We could take the following example. If you bet on Rafa Nadal in a tennis match he has a odds of 1.5 and we bet $10 on him. If Nadal is the winner of his match, we will take $15.

These are the odds that the bookmaker decides for each event, taking into account the odds and may vary between bookmakers. That is one of the reasons why it is always recommended to play at more than one bookmaker and choose as it suits you on each occasion. The odds can be expressed in different ways, especially depending on where you are playing from.

• The decimal quota or dollarpea (1.5) – 1.5*10= 15$
• The fractional or English quota (1/2) – 1⁄2 * 10=5$
• The American quota (USA) (-70) – 70*10 /100= 7$

You will see that sports betting is a world and that depending on the bookmaker, you can find many types and varieties. Remember not to get involved if you are a novice, and start with Simple Bets or 1X2 Bets, do not go further. If you are a beginner, you don't want to get scared at first and lose all your capital in a single bet, and even less if it's the first one you make. As you get the taste and feel more confident in your knowledge, you can investigate other types of bets, where you will run more risk but that move more money.

• Simple or simple bets. They are bets on a single event, bets on a single thing that can happen in an event. Only one option can be chosen. An example, of a simple bet on a football match, could be a bet on which team of the two will win, or a simple bet and bet that there will be a draw.
• Bet 1X2. These are bets that can be applied to events where the home team can win (1), draw (X) or the away team can win (2). It would be the case of football, handball, etc. The countries where football is followed are well known for the pools of a lifetime. They are very easy for beginners although he thinks that you have less chance of winning than in the simple ones, only a 33% chance of getting it right.
• Combined bets, combo or parlay. They are a sum of single bets, starting from combining two or more single bets. They have higher fees but they have much more risk because they all have to be right to collect it. You can mix all kinds of bets, they don't have to be from the same sport, but they do have to be all right to be able to collect it.
• Bet pre-post, antepost or anticipadas. They are bets as you can guess from the name, which are made before an event takes place. It can be a long time and you can make them from the moment they appear on the bookmaker's page. They usually have very interesting odds.

There are so many types of bets that we would never finish quoting them and besides we just wanted to give you a little introduction for when you land in the world, but surely live bets, Over /Under bets, systems bets or Asian Handicap (advantage), etc. will sound to you right away...

Before staying with the first bookmaker you find, it is important that you have certain considerations first and stop for a moment to make a serious decision, especially because we are talking about that your money will be at stake. Make sure that it is a reliable and safe bookmaker. And that it complies with the rules and laws that are required in the country from which you play. New Zealand, Mexico and Colombia are regulated markets and must have the authorization and license issued by the state. If you play from other countries, look for reputable bookmakers that at least have one of the three most reliable international licenses: MGA (Malta), Gambling Commission (United Kingdom) and Curaçao eGaming.

Make sure they have a good customer service and to be able to be in New Zealand, because that way you can find a quick solution and you will not find yourself alone. And that the payment methods they have fit your needs. Once you have passed the reliability and safety test, you will have to look at the offer they offer. If they offer the sports bets that you like the most or even if they accept other types of bets that are not strictly sports if they are to your taste. Sometimes you can master a sport that can be much more profitable than football would be one of the sports that arouses the most passions.

Another of the important issues where you have to setting yourself is the odds . It depends on that index that you are going to earn more or less money. You have to find a balance between offer and odds, even in varieties and types of bets. There are people who love to play combination bets and all casinos and bookmakers may not accept them.

Another issue that you might notice is that they have cashout . It is an exit that allows you to secure part of your bet, a back door. Like, for example, when a match is taking a rhythm contrary to the one you bet on. With the cashout you have the opportunity to withdraw your bet before the end of the event and get a part back, without losing everything.

It will also be interesting to assess if they facilitate you statistics or some tool so you can calculate your chances.
