Question

If you bet on many teams, what happens if you lose some bets.

Community Answer

It's normal to lose sometimes. Don't worry about it and just continue to make the best bet you can. However, if you lose a lot, you should not continue betting on soccer.

Pick your teams based on their frequent stats, and check their head-to-head stats, as well. That should give you a better idea on what to stake.

Question

Is a bet on a soccer (football) match the same as entering a lottery?

Community Answer

No. The more information you have about a match—the teams, the players, any relevant history—the more informed your bet can be, and the greater the chance of winning. In a lottery, by contrast, winning is strictly a matter of random chance.

Question

If I play a team -0/-0.5 and the game ends tied in regulation, do I lose the entire bet or just half?

Ilayah_Borja1

Community Answer

You lose just half of the bet. It's like a "play it safe" bet. If the team ends up winning straight up, then you win everything. If they tie after regulation, then only half of what you bet is won. If they lose, then you lose everything.

Question

What is the meaning of odd and even in betting?

matemanga mhema

Community Answer

Betting odds represent the probability of an event to happen. An evens bet is a bet placed at odds of 2.00 (1/1), commonly known as even odds, and is seen as an ideal bet, especially for players who mostly bet on singles since it doubles your stake if guessed correctly.

Question

How can I bet on five teams on a single ticket?

Community Answer

You can do this by using a five-fold accumulator. This lets you select five different fixtures on five different teams and, if one of them wins, you'll get some of the total money that you could receive.

The home team will always be listed first. For example, if it were Hull City vs Ipswich Town, then Hull City is the home team.

Question

How do I get paid if I win?

Community Answer

You would usually supply payment information of your debit card with the betting company, and would be paid via PayPal or other similar methods. Be careful to check to see if there is a padlock on the top left next to the URL of the page though, so that you know the page is secure before giving your debit card details.

Question

What strategy can I use to bet on 17 teams on a soccer jackpot?

Brendan

Community Answer

You can flip a coin, and if it lands on heads, choose the team with the most athletic looking players, and same for tails. Also, pay attention to the goalie, as the goalies can determine the winning teams.
