Anyone ever notice this when betting soccer...?

[beefcake]

Is that alot of times when every single living soul is on a side to win..alot of times the best side is to go the other way?


For example,if you use flashscore.com and wait until say 30 min or less before a match..go to a particular match and click on it,and then click on odds comparison,then click on 1x2 odds and see if every dam red arrow is pointing down to a certain side,then simply go the other way.Instead of getting screwed by the draw,go to the asian handicap and take the side nobody on the planet likes.
I cant count how many times in my career of betting futbol Ive jumped on the bandwagon and gotten the shaft.At least this way you would get an awsome price on almost every bet..

It would be best to only do this on mon-friday games,when most bettors have much less choices than the weeeknd matches,and the $$ will flow more on the sure fire cant miss bets that bettors have to have action on.

sorry dude but that is not a good strategy, soccer as any sports is about analisis, but i got to agree that handicap the dog is normaly where the value is, but you can not do it random have to analise it first

I do notice - and this is across the board in all sports on SBR - when the majority of the forum is on one pick, it gets jinxed a good deal of the time.

I think it's true in any sports and not just soccer. Obvious winners will draw the most bets. They often lose SU or end in a tie in the case of soccer. Just my opinion

usually line changes within 30 min of kick off can indicate someting

well as an example today...
your plays would be

hearts -0.5
arbroath -0.5
ac milan -1
zimbabwe +2
lile +0.5
toulose pick
man city +1
histon +0.5
burton +0.5
scunthorpe pk
crystal palace +1
sunderland +1
aston villa +0.5

I used the greek.Also iwonder if the mickey mouse cups should ever be used,maybe only mon-friday leagues in the major countries..

Yes, fade the public. The best example is MLB, popular teams such as the Mets and Cubs got clobbered at the sportsbook this year

The soccer lines are incredibly sharp I believe and whatever you do don't bet 1X2. That's like giving your book money UNLESS you are an expert or use "value bet" thinking comparing the odds to betfair SBObet pinny etc, obviously taking the assumed valuebet getting better odds on a side than what people are willing to bet at betfair (= market).
