Part three of the wagering series will continue to have football as a focal point to get a betting edge. However, as stated in parts one and two, the betting edge strategies can be applied to the other major sports. This article will deal with the next or opposite wager and the betting rule of three. Part three deals with betting probabilities. For example, in craps, the best probabilities are that 6, 7, or 8 will come up on the rollout. Therefore, you want your wagers to be focused on those betting odds.
Opposite or Next
Bear with me on this; I need to set the table. In the popular card game of Euchre, the name of the game is to be in control of what is Trump. For example, when your opponents have a red jack showing and neither one orders the card up, you have to assume they have blackjacks in their hand. The betting rule in euchre would be for you or your partner to call clubs or spades. This would be a playing or betting strategy of the next or opposite. This betting edge strategy was studied and found to be 81-82 % successful.
This theory can be used when betting on any of the major sports, but it would work this way in football. Let us use an NFL example: The Steelers and Ravens play each other two times a year. In the first meeting, the game goes under the posted game total. In the rematch later in the season, the next or opposite wager would be to bet the over.
This strategy gives us a betting edge. We are using betting probabilities in our favor. You can use the same betting edge strategy in the NBA or NHL, where you see back-to-back games versus the same opponent. If the first leg of the back-to-back goes over the total, you wager the under in the second leg. It is all about finding a way to get the betting edge.
Rule of Three System Play
The rule of three system play in wagering is pretty straightforward. We will bet the opposite in the fourth if you see a trend of three straight outcomes in a side or total wager. To clarify more in-depth, let’s use the betting scenario of the Steelers and Ravens.
The last three games went under the betting total; therefore, in the fourth game, we would bet on the posted total. This system play uses betting probabilities to give us a betting edge. System bets can be safer for sports bettors, as explained in more depth here. The rule of three betting system was taught to me a long time ago by this successful handicapper. I have found this to, without a doubt, give a betting edge.
Final Thoughts/Conclusion
We want to keep reiterating in our wagering series that, yes, we want to win every wager, but the magic number for the average sports bettor is a 52.4 percent win rate. The betting edge is written to aid you in achieving this wagering goal.
For reference, the best professional sports bettors have an approximate win rate of 55 percent. Be aware a sports handicapper or tout claiming to nail more than 60 % of their wages is not sustainable. Use the next and rule three betting strategies to get that betting edge to be a profitable sports bettor.
