  Betis (-1.0) 17/1 Handicap Draw (-1.0) 15/2 Real Madrid (+1.0) 1/12

  Here are your possible bets and outcomes:

  You bet Betis -1 and win. (Betis needs to win by 2 or more for you to win this bet.) For every 1 you bet, you win 17 profit. So bet 10 and win 170, plus your 10 back.

  You bet that the game will end with Betis winning by EXACTLY 1. (Hence a Draw - 1) You will win 15 for every 2 you bet. So if you bet 20, you will win 150 profit, plus your 20 back.

  You bet Real Madrid +1. (The game can actually end in a draw, or Real Madrid can win. Either of those 2 ways you will win your bet.) In this wager, you must bet 12 for every 1 you win. So if you wager 120, you will only win 10 profit, plus your 120 back for a total return of 130.

  Betis (-2.0) 17/1 Handicap Draw (-2.0) 15/2 Real Madrid (+2.0) 1/12

  Here are your possible bets and outcomes:

  You bet Betis -2 and win. (Betis needs to win by 3 or more for you to win this bet.) For every 1 you bet, you win 66 profit. So bet 10 and win 660, plus your 10 back.

  You bet that the game will end with Betis winning by EXACTLY 2. (Hence a Draw - 2) You will win 22 for every 1 you bet. So if you bet 10, you will win 220 profit, plus your 10 back.

  You bet Real Madrid +2. (The game can actually end in a draw, OR Real Madrid can win, OR Real Madrid can lose by exactly 1. Any of those 3 ways you will win your bet.) In this wager, you must bet 80 for every 1 you win. So if you wager 800, you will only win 10 profit, plus your 800 back for a total return of 810.

Hi,

I never tried betting on soccer matches before so I have no experience in it but I have few questions.

I saw a soccer match with odds of 1: 2.15 / X: 3.25 / 2: 3.25
(1: home team wins, X: Draw, 2: away team wins)

Lets say I bet $10 on 1, $10 on X, and $10 on 2.
If home team wins, I get $21.5 and lose $20 where net profit would be $1.50
If both teams draw, I get $32.5 and lose $20 where net profit would be $12.50
If away team wins, I get same as above.

so in worst case scenario, I get total of $1.5 , and in best case scenario I get total of $12.50
and if I bet $100 on each 3 possibilities I would be either getting $15 plus my initial $100 or $125 plus my initial $100

Are my calculations correct? or is there anything I didn’t take into consideration?

gambling is for fags

except for the fact that you are spend $30 not $20

you can get some answers here, lots of info on that stuff. all the best.

You are totally wrong.

Your total investment is 30$ (10$ for ) (10$ for ) (10$ for )

If Team 1 WON => your cashback is 21.5 => you LOST 8.5$ overall (21.5-30=-8.5)
If Team 2 WON => your cashback is 32.5 => you WON 2.5$ overall (32.5-30=+2.5)
If the result is DRAW => your cashback is 32.5 => you WON 2.5$ overall (32.5-30=+2.5)

In best scenario you WON: +2.5 US$ (means WON of 8.3% from your total investment)
In worts scenario you LOST: 8.5 US$ (means LOST of 28.3% from your total investment)

Soccer Betting players looking at the English Premier League can see that we’re just getting down to the business end of the season, where the big money is made as teams are either fighting at the top for a Champions League spot, or battling to secure their place in the top tier for next season.

There are 11 games left in the season for most teams, although one of the teams with a game in hand will be in action this weekend as Everton hosts a struggling Tottenham side that needs to get their act together quickly before the bottom falls out on their season. Meanwhile, Chelsea heads to Stoke City after firing their manager, while the league leaders from Manchester City travel to Swansea.

Stoke City Chelsea Odds – Saturday, 10:00 AM ET

If ninth-place Stoke is going to earn their first win against Chelsea after six losses and a pair of draws, they may not find a better time than the present as the Blues sacked Andre Villas-Boas after just eight months. Roberto Di Matteo began his role as caretaker manager with a 2-0 win over Birmingham in the FA Cup, but the Premier League is the most important priority as the Blues are in fifth, just three points behind Arsenal.

Stoke has won three of their last five matches overall, and the two losses came in the Europa League competition against Spain’s Valencia, but they have a real chance to challenge the top teams with a few breaks as they’re 10 points behind Chelsea. They’re going to have a tough road ahead of them on Saturday at Stamford Bridge as Stoke has four wins and seven losses in 13 away games, while Chelsea has won eight and lost three of their 13 home games.

The first meeting was a 0-0 draw at Stoke on August 14th, but we’re leaning towards the home side in this contest, although it will be a tight match.

Soccer Betting Pick: Chelsea

Tottenham Everton Odds – Saturday, 12:30 PM ET

It isn’t a stretch to say that this is Spurs’ biggest match of the season, as they’ve been crushed in their last two games, a 5-2 loss at rival Arsenal and then a 3-1 loss at home to Manchester United, whom they were dominating for the first half, but they failed to take their chances. United scored just at the end of the first half and that deflated Spurs, whose defense has been atrocious as of late. They’re only four points ahead of Arsenal in third place, and holding onto that spot is the only thing they have to worry about now.

Everton hasn’t lost in six matches, earning four draws and a pair of wins in that time to sit in 13th place, and they have a game in hand, along with their rivals Liverpool, who they will face next week. The Toffees haven’t been as solid at Goodison Park as usual with five wins, five losses and three draws at home this season, while Spurs have won six, drawn three and lost four on the road.

The last 10 matches between these two have been even with three wins and four draws apiece, while each has scored 11 goals. Spurs have been terrible since the “Harry Redknapp for England manager” rumors have started. The edge has to go to Everton to avenge a 2-0 loss at White Hart Lane from January 11th.

Soccer Betting Pick: Everton

Manchester City Swansea Odds – Sunday, 10:00 AM ET

The league leaders have to take care of business as their rivals from Manchester United are two points behind and will be hosting West Brom at the same time; you have to assume they’ll win, so City can’t afford to drop points. They haven’t even allowed a goal in four games, but all three of their losses this season have come on the road, although they also have seven wins and three draws as well.

Swansea sit on 33 points, good for 14th in the Premiership and they’re relatively solid at home at Liberty Stadium with five wins, six draws and two losses, and they snapped a two-game skid with a 2-0 win at Wigan in their last match. They’re the first team from Wales to ever compete in the Premiership, and they’re almost assured of a second season unless something goes terribly wrong.

Their first meeting with Manchester City was a 4-0 drubbing away from home, but it was their first-ever match in the Premiership and to be fair, they held City scoreless for the first half before the wheels blew off in the second. This match will be much closer with their fans support them, and we’re going with a draw in our sports betting picks.

I am gay

Lol…No Im not…..Im just kiddin….Sorry to dissapoint you kalambre lmfao…I still lubz you

What I really want to say is: Next time you see some racist sht posted by a INDIVIDUAL person….its from that INDIVIDUAL alright….it dosent reflect on his whole race….so can we stop with this stupid race wars forreal…Its getting annoying

I know Whites usually have that "oh look its a minority…act natural and act like you dont notice his race" attitude….and Blacks usually have that "what u lookin at me fuh u aint seen a black man before" attitude as a by product of the slavery days….and Asians also usually have that "lock the car doors its a black" attitude from watching too many BET videos and not meeting enough actual inteligent and courteous blacks

BUT

we are boxing fans….fans of the greatest sport on earth where competitors rise above with great determination and heart…So boxing forum….rise above this sht and be true to your sport

Leave the racism for those soccer hooligans
@ ewwd

lol its aight…I dont want to be liked by people like you

I aint wasting my time with you no mo…so you dont exist to me…Last thing Im ever gonna say to you is - get laid bruh….go out in the sunshine….go for a walk in the beach….In 100 years time everyone on this planet will be dust replaced by new people….nothing (including race) is so important that you have to be so bitter about it

I understand that the world is full of B/S and everyone gets their fare share of it….Thats exactly why you cant sweat the small stuff like wasting time being racist online…because theres already enough B/S to sweat over in real life

Aight peace

• Only idiots are wastin their time and lives like Jhnjizzm Pacalaka Hater.
• I see where you’re coming from and I agree with you Ignorance is individual. I wanna bring to the attention this MMA vs Boxing thing also. I am a huge MMA fan to get that off, but I have a thing that I follow is respect ALL sports. This whole MMA vs boxing shit is stupid if you ask me. They are both similar sports, but MMA is more than just boxing and wrestling. I know this was a different topic than what you were talking about, but that’s just me trying to clear up the MMA vs Boxing “rivalry”.
• Ur a damn fool Hawk

  no wonder i never liked you…..and your gay too!!

  boxing IS about racism….we’re just too politically correct nowadays….nowadays everyone is frontin

  Boxing has always been about race, and nationalism….

  from Jack Johnson and The Great White Hopes, to the regular ring battles between Jews, Irish, and Italians in the 20s, 30s , and 40s…..
  From Louis vs Scmelling all the way to Holmes vs Cooney and the great rivalry between Mexicans and Puerta Ricans, and now the Manny Packeow following wich is 97% racially motivated

  Race, racism, and fighting go hand in hand

  would you rather we all sit in a circle and hold hands you f@ggot?!

when I start betting, I alway choose the team that are in a Great form and usually strong. But finally they lose. Could you tell me the stragy to win the soccer-betting tonight? Eg. Newcastle vs Sunderland. Plz……

There is no sure strategy. If this would exist, there would no be any betting company.
I can give you some advices. Decision should be yours with all consequences.
If you select a game where you like to bet on, gather as many information as you can from locals (newspapers, radio, inside information etc.) Never stake all your bank. Maximum 20% of your bank, no matter what. Follow the odds movements and make your own theory why odds are moving up or down, why handicap or totals has changed or in numbers or is up or down in a particular time interval.

For example for your match, (Newcastle United vs Sunderland 2012-03-04 12:00 GMT) the DRAW has decreased from a maximum of 3.48 to 3.18 within two hours of start time. The odd for Newcastle United to win the match has rise from 2.12 to 2.35 and the odd for Sunderland to win the match has decreased from 3.84 to 3.56 in the same interval. That makes me feel that X or (Suderland +Handicap) could be a good choise. (http://www.oddsarchive.com/soccer/england-premier-league/2012/03/04/newcastle-united-vs-sunderland/233727500/

The final score was 1-1.

The theroy worked. Remember: not always will be as easy as this one, but can give you a technical source of making decision.

for the record, were both girls.

im not going to give you all the details but explain just a bit.
erin is the most aggravating & bipolar person ive ever met.
when were alone i love her to death & she acts like herself.
but, when shes exposed to different people, she changes her personality. & im not talking two sides. theres like 15 different sides of her.
& she does a lot of alluding that can hurt a persons feelings !

now this is my problem.
when we started basketball for high school this year, she kissed complete ass to coach & it got her on varsity. coach said it came down to us two & she picked her over me because of the ass kissing & i got stuck on junior varsity, which wouldnt be a big deal if my number one best friend was their with me, but she too made varsity .
& im not a quitter, so i stuck with it but it was pretty miserable considering the coach chose varsity over everything even though everyone was a freshman in both jv & varsity. except 3 juniors & two sophomores.
regardless, i stuck it out.

but now, soccer season is coming up, & guess what shes doing to the new coach ? KISSING ASS. & it pisses me off so much because im not the type of person to do that. so i know if she gets on the team & i get cut i will be super mad & super jealous.

being her best friend, i should not feel this way.

& im pretty sure if i got on the team & she didnt, i bet the evil part of me would feel good about it !
but id also feel sad that we dont get to experience together.

my other #1 bff im praying she gets on it with me & even if she made it, id be happy for her .

so what am i suppose to do about erin ? i feel like im crazy or something for feeling like this. like does it make me a bad friend ?
what are your thoughts ?

Play the dumb game and kiss ass and do it better

You have every right to be angry I think. I have a few friends like that and if they aren’t themselves then I tend to not hang out with them. I’m glad your not the ass kissing type… Because that has nothing to do with skill let alone anything! Please don’t feel discouraged that she gets on a higher level team the you if she does… Because being an athlete isn’t about ass kissing… It’s about hard work. Good luck dear

Your defiantly not wrong about the whole problem. I would feel the exact same thing. What I would do is go to the coach and say what yu feel. Dot get all up in his grill just ask them why. Then go up to your friend and ask her why she does tht. That it makes you mad and it’s not fair. If you says shes not going to stop then she isn’t a true friend.

Wow that’s not fair. Even though it sucks focus on other things important to you also. is she really even that good of a friend to you? If not, drop her. Crap like that happens sometimes, but in a few years it won’t matter to you anymore. Pratice hard, be a good sport and leader, keep your gpa up, and make good friends. Good luck(:

So I just turned 18, I’ve made 3 bets already and 2 have lost. Any tips out there to bet smarter and more efficiently. (I don’t bet on horse racing, mainly league, union, soccer, basketball etc) BTW don’t give me some BS rant about gambling help, I only bet $10 max each week.

No one can give you the perfect answer. I can only suggest to make some research before you are taking bets. In my opinion is better to find out local information and lay your bets on local teams. You may find out some critical information which are unknown to bookies (some injuries, disease, last minute player retired etc.). It will take some time until book-maker change the odds or lines.

I may suggest you a site where you can see and follow the pre-game odds in graphical layout and take a cold opinion what the people are betting on, how the sport market is moved by sharps bettors or mass bettors.

Good luck!

Soccer Betting players who are early risers should turn their attention to the English Premier League this weekend as four of the top seven teams will go head-to-head, while another edition of the Tyne-Wear Derby goes off in the northeast part of England.

Arsenal Liverpool Odds – Saturday, 7:45 AM ET, Anfield

The action starts at Liverpool, where the Reds are haven’t lost yet during the league season, but they also have eight draws in 12 matches there and that means a lot of dropped points for Liverpool, who are seventh in the league table. However, they won the Carling Cup over Queens Park Rangers in a penalty shootout and that could carry over to the league.

The Gunners are coming off a massive 5-2 win over their rivals from Tottenham, but they still have a lot of injuries at the back and they only beat Spurs because of a ton of defensive mistakes Tottenham don’t usually make. Arsenal has a Champions League game against AC Milan next week, but they’ll throw all their resources into this game as they’re down 4-0 to the Italians and Arsenal desperately needs to hang onto fourth in the Premiership.

Six of the last 10 meetings between these two have ended in a draw, with Liverpool holding a 16-14 edge in goals scored after a 2-0 win at Arsenal in the second match of the season. The Reds will be favored at home, but this could be a wide-open affair and it will likely end up in a draw as Arsenal does just enough to snatch a crucial point and pile more pressure on the Reds at Anfield.

Soccer Betting Pick: Draw

Sunderland Newcastle Odds – Sunday, 7:00 AM ET, St. James Park

These two clubs are only 10 miles apart, so there is obviously a massive rivalry and it’s been very even with Newcastle claiming 53 wins, while Sunderland has taken 45 matches and there have been 45 ties. Newcastle has had the upper hand as of late, winning six and drawing three of the last 10 meetings while outscoring their rivals 20-9 after a 1-0 win at Sunderland in August.

Sunderland were thumped 4-0 at West Bromwich in their last match, and they’re in a logjam of teams in the Premiership, where seven points separates seventh to 13th place. Ninth-place Sunderland can’t afford to drop points here because a loss can send them down the pecking order as we prepare for the stretch run.

Newcastle drew 2-2 at home to Wolves, but they really should have come away with all three points, which would have put them one point behind fifth-place Chelsea, and they’ll be up for this match as they know how much it means to their supporters. Many soccer betting players didn’t expect a season like this out of Newcastle, but here they are and a Champions League spot isn’t out of the question as they’re only three points behind Arsenal.

Look for the Magpies to be the favorites at St. James Park, and they’ll come away with the victory after giving one away last week.

Soccer Betting Pick: Newcastle 

Manchester United Tottenham Odds – Sunday, 11:10 AM ET, White Hart Lane

In the finale of the weekend, Spurs are the hosts after their awful performance at Arsenal, and it was strange because Tottenham has been one of the best defensive teams in the league for most of the year. If they aren’t careful and they play like they did against the Gunners, it’s going to be a long day at White Hart Lane for Spurs, who are in third place heading into the weekend.

United came away with a tough 2-1 win at Norwich City to stay two points behind first-place Manchester City, and they’ve dominated Spurs with seven wins and three draws in their last 10 meetings, holding a 21-6 edge in goals scored. Tottenham hasn’t beaten United since May 2001, and they were throttled 3-0 at Old Trafford earlier in the season.

If Tottenham is going to have a chance against Manchester United, they’ll have to do it at White Hart Lane, where they have won 10 and drawn two of their 13 games, but United is also very good away from home with nine wins and three draws in their 13 matches away from Old Trafford. This has the potential to be the match of the week as both teams love to attack, and this should be a draw in your sports betting book.

Soccer Betting Pick: Draw

Hey everyone,
I want to buy a new pair of cleats but everytime I do buy a pair on my own, I always buy the wrong ones for my position. I play goalkeeper on my high schools varsity soccer team, as well as kicker on the varsity football team. What is the best pair of cleats that would be great for both these positions? I want a pair that gives me power, control, and confort. I’ve heard that the Nike T90 III are a good safe bet but I wanted to find out for sure. If you can post links to the websites that sell the cleats along with a little "review" on them. Thank you, I really appreciate it!

Before you put a bunch of effort into finding the perfect boot realize that a fancy shoe won’t make you better, what makes you better is your dedication to improvement and those countless hours of training you put in with your team and more importantly on your own time.

I would recommend Adidas Coppa. It’s simple, reliable, durable and has been on the market for over 20 years. You can’t deny that type of quality. Fancy boots are for players who can’t grab attention with their ability. Black is the way to go.

Most importantly you need to be working to become a better Soccer player each and every single day. If you think you’re “good enough” you’re wrong. Make a commitment to improve in some way every day and you will be on the road to Soccer success.
If you want to become better you should be looking to improve all areas of your game not just a select few: Technical Skill, Physical Fitness, Mental Toughness, and Tactical Understanding.

First of all you need to start training on your own - work to improve the basic ball skills, dribbling, shooting, passing, and ball control. Example: Dribble a ball around the house, practice your passing and shooting on a wall for 10 minutes a day.

Work to improve your fitness: strength, power, speed, acceleration, endurance, and flexibility. Example: every second day do 50 push ups, 100 squats, and 50 sit ups …. go for a run every morning, gradually increasing your speed each time.

Next you need to always give your best effort on the field. Remember you only have one chance to play that game so leave it all out there. Make a promise to yourself to be the hardest working player on the field, every time you step on the field.

You should also start watching professional Soccer at least 1 game per week, you can learn so much from pros. Don’t just watch the ball, watch specific players and watch what they do both on and off the ball.

If you’re really serious about seeing those improvements your talking about pick up my Free Training Guide and complete the Beginner training program at the end of the book. I promise if you stick to it and give your best effort each day you will see changes in your game. You can get that Free Training Guide as well as weekly tips and updates by filling out the form on the right side bar of my website, I will post the link in the resource box.

I want you to write back after you have completed the program and tell me about your improvements. Best of luck and keep me posted on your progress.

I could not stop thinking about the fact that I USED TO date super HOT guys i.e. varsity hunks, basketball jockeys, a soccer player, a tennis player, swimmer. I mean very very athletic guys from high school and college. I am very adventurous, i’m a BIG sports fan and had gone on all of their games for support and sometimes they ask for my opinion about their stats. I watch a lot of basketball games. YOU NAME IT! I know the game by heart and soul. I used to be a SCHOOL VARSITY myself before I got into the medical field.

One time, I saw D.ROSE’s game and made a bet in favor of the BULLS which I won. He is really good. It’s like he was born with it. I have a BIG CRUSH on him esp on the time I found out that we have the same age. I even dreamed for almost every night now that we dated and even married. WAHHHH!

That’s why maybe, JUST WHAT IF? Nothing is impossible. Although I’m just an ordinary girl, i think I’m cool enough to handle the pressure of dating the guy. He seems to be a very respectable guy. Down to earth. So the chances of US dating would not be impossible. I just need to meet him personally first. I’m such a GAGA. hahahaha

I must handle the pressure. Although a lot of girls would hate me. HE’s really worth it. hahaha Hey I’m not a groupie and I don’t just have SEX with anyone.
You all think I’m a hoe well bad for all of you, you think of that way.
I just don’t sleep with anybody excuse me.
Some of the guys I date are my closest friends who I think are cool.
I’m choosy. SEX and KISSING and etc is a SPECIAL THING for me that I dont usually do.
I don’t kiss and tell as well.
I’m in for TRUE companionship. So what if we date cause we agree on things (SPORTS) its not like we will have sex right away. It’s not my fault if I love sports and get hooked to guys like these. SPORTS is my life.

That’s why maybe people don’t respect you cause you lack the quality yourself.
SORRY I’m just venting out a possibility here ’cause he is my crush.

WELL, I’m not born to please all of you. and I pray for your GREEN DIRTY minds.

God ur so obsessed! Have u ever thought that maybe he has a girlfriend? Or a wife for that matter!!

F*cking Dirty Azz Hoe.

#IHateHoez

LOL - give up the day dreams -you are all used up and hagged out from all these jocks and studs that have been through you
