    Easiest Sport to Bet?
    I think it HAS to be soccer, laying 5k on 1.2 quotes to net an E-Z $1000 (ex: Chelsea-Birmingham City today). Whats your take

          I personally love low soccer quotes b/c they are basically a mortal lock to win and the best thing with soccer quotes are that they just have to win, no spreads involved. Mark my word Chelsea wins today vs Birmingham City. Think of it as a quick, 90-minute 20% return on your investement. There are three things certain in this life: death, taxes, and Chelsea

            I wouldn't call any of them "easy," but it depends on your knowledge in that particular sport.

            I've always had the most success betting on boxing.

              Armyoflovers,

              On your advice, I went with Chelsea 500/100.

              If this match doesn't win, I'm sending you my invoice. LOL

              Good Luck for the both of us.

                    Do you normally bet soccer? Chelsea hasnt lost at Stamford Bridge in like 4 years and they wont lose today to a newly-promoted team. And you can take that to the bank!

                      Army,

                      Actually I do, but only totals. Currently have Arsenal v Fulham Under 2 1/2 and waiting the Chelsea vs Birmingham City Match to start within 1/2 hour.

                      Good Luck.

                        Off sports like Tennis and gold but maxs are low because books know you can beat them

                        The lower the max bet, the easier the sport to beat

                        Why is football limits so high? Because you cannot beat them.

                          Looks like "the bank" better hire some extra security for the 2nd half. Kinda liking my Over 0.5 goals for Birmingham at a plus price right now.

                            Well, yea, I dont know how B'ham are on level terms since Chelsea London have done nothing short of dominate the game. There still is another half to play, and if you didnt see Arsenal's comback that gives me hope heading into the 2nd half.

                            I wanted to pounce on that OVER 2.5 goals at The Greek for 1.87 but was too reluctant. I regret that decision now....

                                      i always thought that the wager amount was a direct relationship with expected bet volume

                                            You don't append London to the name of football teams. Chelsea is an area of London, the team is just called Chelsea, or more accurately, Chelski.

                                                  The easiest sports are ones you are actually interested in and follow. If you have no interest in the sport then I don't see how you can do well.

                                                      Thank you sir, but it wasnt actually that hard given The Blues where overwhelming faves...but I'll take the accolades nonetheless

                                                        I watched both games today and didn't hear that once on the British TV commentary. Sounds like something passed down from an American Director. I assure you you'd be laughed at if you did it in England.
