I follow this simple rule:
1st - Think win, draw or lose. (Think of a likely score 1st)
If think is a DRAW,
Fun bet with a score (30 ~ 50% of DRAW bet $), because DRAW ODDS is
mostly above 3.
That's how I win A LOT if DRAW & JP if score correct.
Dont' bother with H-T-F-T etc, PTS (unless DRAW).
This way, you spend lesser time staring or thinking what else to
buy. Do you know all the extras are there to confuse you? If you
can't even think of a likely score, you want to predict say Team A
score 1st half, then Team B DRAW? Then why don't buy DRAW?
Pro punter don't
bother how many goals, HT-FT, who score, PTS
etc.
That's how we make a living. K-I-S-S.
I only win 65% of the time, but can win about 30% of my
"investment" on a monthly basis. You must believe in the system and
keep cool when losing. Don't any how chase bet or bet every single
match.
As to how to think of a likely score, if you believe me, see my
posting before the match. (Me as Author, not fun post & I don't
bet every match!)
Cheers.
