Basketball, along with hockey, belongs to the category of the most unpredictable sports games. Perhaps this is what he attracts viewers around the world. But just watching the game and enjoying it is one thing. To guess the outcome of the match, you need a certain system. In this article, we will look at the most popular and effective basketball betting strategies. So let's get started.

Strategy for total in basketball

Is the most popular. In the painting of the match of any office there are at least three different totals. That is, players can bet “under” and “over” on several different outcomes. For example, that both teams will score from 170 to 190 points in a match. In addition, totals are accepted for fouls in quarters, free throws, three-pointers, etc. In the largest offices, there is even a “total market” for basketball players. That is, you can bet on three-pointers, fouls and free throws of each of the members of both teams.

Total calculation

Forcalculation, you need to analyze the five previous games of the teams in question. No less important are the statistics of personal meetings.

1. To begin with, we calculate the sum of points that each team received in the last 5 games. The result is divided by five. As a result, we get the arithmetic mean.

2. Now that we have this indicator, we can calculate further. We add three points to the sum of the points of the home team, as well as one point for each game won from the last five. One and a half points are deducted for a loss. We do the same with the visiting team. The only thing is that you don't need to add three points at the beginning.

3. The next step is the analysis of personal meetings. Again, you need to calculate the arithmetic mean for each team. Then they are added to the results obtained in point No. 1, and divided by two. The resulting number will be the most likely total of the match. Comparing it with the line of bookmakers, we can draw certain conclusions. If the amount you received is less than the total in the line of the office, then you need to choose the total less. And vice versa.

Betting on basketball is not limited to just one total. There are other strategies as well. Let's move on.

Oscar Grind Strategy

This is practically the only strategy that has a specific goal, namely, to increase the bankroll by one unit. This unit is the rate itself. Everything is simple. You don't even need any basketball betting software.

For example, your bank is 100 rubles. You bet 10 rubles. The goal is to increase assets by these 10 rubles. That is, you need to increase the bank to 110 rubles. If the bet does not pass, then its size increases to 20 rubles. If passed, the goal is reached. This strategy is also suitable for playing betting basketball. But common sense is required for its successful application. Bet with minimum risk and maximum odds.

Quarter Betting (Basketball)

This can be both the indicators of individual teams and the total value. Players are offered to bet on which quarter the given indicator will be higher or which value will be the highest in the entire match. In fact, the outcome of the quarter is very difficult to predict. Therefore, this strategy is mostly based on intuition and superficial analysis of the teams' previous games.

Corridor

All existing strategies for betting on basketball cannot match the profitability of the corridor. This is the most profitable tactic. The middle is the difference between opposing bets on a particular event. For example, two teams are playing and they have the following bets:

• F2 (0).
• F1 (–5, 5).
• TM 166.
• TB 160.

As you can see, there is a difference of exactly six points between TM and TB. This is the corridor. If both teams can earn between 161 and 165 points together, then both bets will pass. If the number of points scored is less than 161, only TM will pass. If more, then TB.

The same principle applies to handicaps. Here the corridor is a difference of 7 points. Bothbets will stand if the first team beats the second by 6 points (or more).

Corridors for odds are in different offices, because each of them has its own opinion regarding the game of teams. But the corridors for the total exist only at one bookmaker.

Time match

As mentioned above, there is no more profitable basketball betting strategy than a middle. But if you master well such tactics as a time match, then the winnings can even exceed the income from the game along the "corridors". The essence of a time match is that the player bets on the outcome of the entire event or its first half. For example, team 1 and team 2 play football. You think that the first team will win in the first half, but the second team will win in the end. You are betting on it. Moreover, you can choose outcomes for two teams at once.

No basketball betting strategy gives such high odds as a half-time match. Despite the clear underdog or favorite, the odds rarely drop below two. Therefore, you can earn decent money, even betting in two halves of the meeting on one winning team.

LIVE bets

Recently, betting on basketball in LIVE mode is gaining momentum significantly. In this case, there are several strategies, but we will talk about the most popular. These are half-time bets when the bookmakers are preparing a new line for the 2nd half of the game. And they have very little time for this.

How can you make such bets? Everything is simple. You don't even need any betting softwarebasketball. They can be done directly from the site of the bookmaker itself by selecting the appropriate menu item. So, what is the essence of the strategy itself?

The line in this type of bets is available to the player only for a few minutes, before changing the odds. As a result, he has very little time for analysis. But the bookmaker is in a similar position. Analysts need to quickly make adjustments based on the results of the first half of the game. And here they can make a mistake by giving an overestimated coefficient for the event.

Take team motivation into account

In LIVE betting, this is one of the most important factors. At the opening of the game, the betting line reflects exclusively pre-match handouts. The line in the break can differ significantly from it. And here it is important to understand the motivation of the teams. How focused is the favorite on the game? Can he come out relaxed in the 2nd half and let the outsider pull up?

It often happens that, having gained leadership, the team loses motivation, despite the support of the coach and fans. This could be a good opportunity for you. On the other hand, the team can work out the first half poorly and use the second half to win back. To successfully put LIVE on the second half of the event, you need to be not only a capper, but also partly a psychologist, correctly assessing the habits of the team and its character.

Choose multiple matches to bet on

In the evening at EuroBasket or at night in the NBA, there may be several interesting events for you at onceevents. All of them need to be kept in mind. After all, it may be necessary to move from one event to another in the absence of suitable rates. Therefore, ideally, you should watch several games at once and have information on them by analyzing the pre-match handouts.

Search for the cause

The break is a good opportunity to think carefully about what you saw and find out why everything happened the way it did in the first half and not otherwise. Did the opponent’s favorite underestimate or just have a bad day, what is the situation with fouls of key players, were there any injuries that significantly affect the game, etc. If the pre-match handouts do not correspond to what happened in the first half of the game, then you need to find the reason for this. Otherwise, you may not even hope for success in LIVE betting.
