where to buy dvds on making money from sports betting, ie football, golf, horses, darts, etc

Category: Tennis betting news

i am looking to find dvd,s on how to make money from pro-sports betting, ie golf, football, tennis, snooker, darts, etc.

can anyone help, instructional dvds, on basically how to bet like the pros, on these sports

Only about 1% of the people who bet on sports do so profitably. You are not one of them, nor will you ever be. There is no “easy” money out there for you, and as long as you think there is, you are going to be a TARGET for scammers.

You don’t need DVD’s you need exceptional knowledge (or at least better knowledge than the bookmaker) of the sporting event. All you need to do is estimate the odds of the outcomes of an event, if the bookmaker is offering a higher price than you have estimated the odds to be you bet. Its called a value bet. If your predictions are correct long term you will win. Some people may never explicitly make calculations, but any successful gambler will at least have a feeling or inclination that an outcome is overpriced.

If your plan is to do it like a job, or professionally, You need to look into sports arbitrage betting. Its when you bet at multiple sportsbooks, no matter what the game, (same bets win/loss so they cancel out) then you make a small percent on the difference of odds between the sportsbooks

Tomorrow in the US Open it’s Dolgopolov vs Djokovic, who hopes Dolgo whips Nole

Category: Tennis betting news

Wow that would be a dream come true for many a tennis fan. I’d love to see Alexandr Dolgopolov wipe the court with ole Novak da dumb Djoker but that’s too good to be true …yet. I bet by next year at the Open or maybe the one a year after that, Dolgo will have gotten his game down to be a serious threat to Djoko.

Don’t really care. I haven’t been a fan since McEnroe-Conners-Borg

Wishful thinking my friend. I have seen Djoker play and nobody is any match for him at this point.

i dont really care as long as murray win the us open

Nope… But if Dolgopolov can make the match intense for like 3-4 hours, then the Djoker could lose to Ferrero or Tipsarevic.

It would be brilliant to see Nole beaten by Dolgo although I don’t think it will happen.
But I agree with another answerer, if Dolgo can push him into a longer match then maybe a more experienced and better skilled player can beat him in the next round.
But I dont care really because my favourite is out (Verdasco) so now I want Nadal to win so as long as he gets it Nole can do whatever he wants! :)

I’d love to see Djokovic lose, but only if Nadal loses as well.

Sorry But I hope djokovic wins….he is amazing
but dolgopolov is becoming a great player……next year should be good for him….

But Siara the most attractive rich black men Like Denzel Washinton and Will Smith and rich Jay-z OBAMA are with black women so NO they don’t choose you either.

Why are so many black women dating white men?

Because why the hell not?

Because men date women.

you guys with your lists

No

why are BLACK WOMEN starting to date whtie men..not white men starting to date them

First off the only time a black chick will get with a white guy is if she is desperate or if she is using him for money

97% of all White people date within their race. I’ve only seen a mixed race baby in the pram to a White mother twice in my whole life, and I live in London.

Why would Whites want to contaiminate their gene pool?

http://cdn.necolebitchie.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/paul-wall-and-his-wife-crystal.jpg

Rejected white men settle for black women, are typical unattractive, ugly, ghetto, uneducated. The ones that no white woman would want.

Now you want to speak Hollywood?

Did you know that Kelly Rowland is single now?

Did you know that half the people on your list white men aren’t even attractive? The Men or the Women are neither famous so it’s some obvious goldigging going around.

Why is it when black men in hollywood date outside their race they usually get models or well known women everyone know.

But black women get old white men that are retired and ugly nobody wants, so black women not only get ghetto thug white men in the real world, but in hollywood get ugly retired men that they can get, them are the only men you can get to get back at your,”BROTHAS” for not being attracted to you obviously black women haven o standards when they date white men.

More than half of the list consist of ugly old white men. That’s the funny thing about.

Outside hollywood it’s ghetto ugly white men, not a big achievement you got there.

I agree with I’m white lol.

The most attractive white men and most white generally are with white women. Paul Walker and Johny Depp are the most attractive white men in my opinion isn’t Johnny Depp like 2% black? Doesn’t even like black girls. Neither of them have ever dated a black women.

Just because a mans rich and famous doesn’t make him special to a black woman if he’s white she see’s that as something special to get at black men for the rich and attractive ones marrying and dating other races of women.

Heck even the most richest and educated black men marry us over you.

+Songbird-

You must be seriously blind. Jay Z is the most ugliest man on earth, he has a underbite, saggy lip, a big huge lip, and looks like a monkey. Denzel Washington is also ugly, he’s way to black and has very thick nappy hair he’s not attractive. Will Smith is average nothing Special.

Obama is probably going to lose the election coming up, Edward Brooke, and all the other mixed men in the white house are married to white women and the black men are split 50% with them.

Marcus Patrick, Sheemar Moore, Michael Lee Chin, Edward Brooke, are more attractive than them all of them are married to white or non-black women but S.Moore he’s dating a white woman right now.

All the white men on your list are ugly btw lol.

Omg um black and I say stop it already

Since when is Carlos Santana White?

He’s a Mexican mestizo.

A lot of white girls are just plain mean.When getting a divorce,they try to take the guy for everything hes worth.Not to mention trying to take away parental right of the husband to get even more money,chii.They dont want handsome guys,they want hot guys(picky eh).Once they find out your rich the flock to you,laughing at your dumb jokes,ect.

Most of them dudes are rejects and aren’t even white, most of them are divorced now and aren’t together.

I’m white and will take a white woman over a chimp any day. Black Women have highest AIDS more than white women, more likely to be overweight, and white women are more attractive diverse with more than just bootyclaping to offer, black women are sick. You try to make white women jealous or something? Most white women aren’t insecure like black women, they already know most white men like myself marry them and stay with them, if we date interracial it’s Hispanic or Asian, Hispanics who are white are somewhat hot, Asians aren’t but just saying… black women aren’t on the list for most of us unless you have serious issues with self hate and are a white trash and talk like a black person.

How can I meet some new people

Category: Tennis betting news

Ok, so I’m 14 year old girl and I have plenty of friends in school that I hang round with etc, but to be honest, when I think about it, I don’t actually like any of them, I know it sounds stupid but the thing is I’m quite clever and I like to do lots of different things and id love some friends that I could do things I actually enjoy with. In school I know pretty much everyone but don’t particularly like any of them, I used to go to tennis club but you don’t really get to talk to anyone much there, I go to guitar lessons, but there’s no one there to talk to apart from the teacher, I went to bridge club for a bit (as in the card game) but everyone there was too geeky. Call me fussy, bet seriously, I just want to meet some nice people who I can get on with, I’m popular in school and I never have problems introducing myself to people and stuff like that. I’m just really bored these days, I don’t enjoy things like playing in the street and going out shopping in groups like my friends do and I never have anything to do, so yeah.
Sorry it’s so long :/.
Does anyone have any ideas on how and where I can meet new people that I’ll like?

You are looking for the perfect person. Not gonna happen.

Join groups or clubs or something that you;re very interested in, become friends with the people in those clubs because they will share the same interests as you so you can get along :)

I know how you feel.
I’m 14, too.
I recently realized I don’t like many of my friends.
Just simply talk to people.
At school when you need to work in groups,
polietly avoid your friends and work with new people?
good luckk!

Well I guess it’s time to meet some new people! Try being friends with new kids at your school. They will be more then happy they at least have 1 friend!

why did he delete me on facebook

Category: Tennis betting news

ok theres this guy that i play tennis with and at 1st he wuz really nice te me nd all. so i added him on facebook and he accepted like 2 minutes later. and then ikept beating him at tennis and he deleted me but he is still nice to me and all so im thinking maybe he deleted me by mistake r something. shud i add him again. or should i approach him about it or shud i just leave it. im so confused and i dont understand why he wud do this its so immature just cuz i bet him at a GAME he deletes me i mean hes like 15 for gods sake!! please answer

This is a personal question and cannot be backed up with facts, only opinions so there’s no official answer

However, In my opinion, Always loose to keep him happy

I understand you are upset about this, my guess is that he got angry/upset beacause you beated him in the game. Maybe as you said it was an mistake. If I where you i would try and add him again ( maybe it was just temporarly ) and see if he accepts. If not you might wanna ask him why he does not add you. There can be hundreds of reasons why he deleted you but only he knows the answer :) hopes this helps

Just casually talk to him next time and just bring up how he deleted you and laugh. then he might talk back and say why

I guess it hurts men’s egos to lose to a girl.

hm, yeah…
He could be just annoyed that you beat him at tennis because all guys get annoyed if girls (you are a girl right?) beat them at something and i suppose he’s probably just embarrassed about it.
But if its really starting to get on your nerves that he’s nice to you yet you’re not friends on facebook then you should like take a picture or something or just be casually taking pictures and say ‘ooh i’ll tag you in this!’ see if he replies with anything. If he doesnt then the next time you see him mention the picture and say that for some reason you couldn’t tag you in it! If he still doesnt own up to it and just plays along with it and acts suprised and says he doesnt know why its not working, then add him on facebook and see if he accepts… If he doesnt explain to him at tennis that the reason it wouldnt let you tag him was because you’re not friends with him on facebook, see what his answer is for that;)
You could also do the same thing but tagging him in a status etc.
Hope that helps;D

What good sites are there that allow you to online bet on sports

Category: Tennis betting news

I am looking for the best sites to online bet on sports e.g. football, tennis and so on. Is there any sites that allow online sports betting. Also is there any sites that offer promotional bonus codes for these sites. I tried looking at a few but did not find any good ones for betting. I would appreciate any help, thank you.

  • Try centsports.com
    You start off with a dime and work yourself up
  • I find http://www.Unibet.com is the best as they stream lots of the sports live. 888 sport, paddy power, and gamebookers are also good. http://www.Sportsride.com and http://sosopoker.com are good for the sports betting bonus codes nad also casino and poker bonus codes.
  • You dont need promotional codes unless its said so, all the sites have promos, like 20$ when you deposit. You can find reviews of online bookmakers here http://www.gamblingsafe.net/online-bookmaker-reviews.html
    Bet365 is one of the worlds biggest if not the biggest…
  • You can check this optimal guide to bet online bookmakers and betting exchanges

    Over 30 of them

  • Hello, you will find certified independent reviews of the best sites for sports betting at http://www.Sportsbook-Ratings.net Some offer bonus codes, but all of them are very reputable and PAY with you win! That is the key. Many sites offer you great sounding bonus packages, but never intend to actually pay you if you win.
  • In my opinion the best are bodog and betonline. Since Bodog will leave the US market in december I probably choose betonline. I have reviews of the best sport sites here

I placed a bet on a tennis player in a match but my player retired, do i get my money back for the bet

Category: Tennis betting news

No, it isn’t Murray’s fault that Djokovic either ran out of gas or got injured and retired at 3-0 in the second set.

If you go to the horse races and your horse pulls up lame, do you think the track would refund your bet? I have a feeling you lost the money. Bad luck.

However, Djokovic has a full week to recover from this, so I would still believe that he has a good shot at winning the US Open. Just don’t bet your car or your house on him, OK?

EDIT: Found out that Novak has a shoulder injury. That might be “fixable” in a week, or he could be out for a few months. Don’t know the details yet.

I see another Answerer who says you *can* get a refund with some bookies, so maybe I shouldn’t have responded to a question about betting, when tennis is more of what I know about. Guess we learn something new every day :-)

I dont think so, If the player you put the bet on, retires, then he is the loser – i dont think you will get your money back, sometimes om william hill, they offer refunds if a horse doesn’t run…

But i dont think it is the same in tennis.

Depends which company you bet with. I bet with WilliamHill and Bet365 and when a retirement occurs I get the money back.

i dont think so

How I am I supposed to tell my stubborn dad I don’t want to join tennis club

Category: Tennis betting news

I was in the Tennis Club and Tennis Varsity for the past 2 school years. But lately my coach has been really annoying and I hate him now. So, I asked him if I can still join the varsity without joining the club (to decrease time with him) but he said the club is priority to be able to join the varsity. I don’t know if he said that just to get money out of me (club and varsity both cost money) or it’s the truth, but either or, I really don’t want to be in the same club this school year. It’s because I’m gonna be learning the same thing anyways, so why waste the money (I can use the money for other things)? Plus, I bet my coach is going to make me president of the club, which is really great, but a bad thing if it’s in his club because he’s going to order you around and then sometimes he’ll get mad for no reason… I also want to focus on my studies, and not sports, this school year. Don’t get me wrong but I love tennis but how am I suppose to tell my stubborn dad (he plays the same sport and the idea of me playing tennis came from him) that I don’t want to be in the same club? I don’t want him getting the wrong idea and I also don’t want to hurt his feelings. I want him to know that I’ll gladly join the varsity only if club wasn’t a priority. What am I suppose to do? Please help. I want your honest opinions. One more thing, when it comes to decisions, he always want it his way, I want to tell him, respectively, that this time, I want it my way…

  • Tell him it is your life and that you aren’t cut out for this. You have no desire to do it.
  • I quit soccer after my 9th grade year because of my coach and it was the largest regret i have of my life. But if your Truly willing to do it, i’ve found that being straight forward is the best way to do it. If he argues just say dad, your supposed to support me, i understand your looking out for my best interest and for fun but i just dont want to deal with my coach as much.

    Just tell him the truth and thats all you can do.

    Tennis is great because it takes alot of school stress away because your doing something, and as i said if you like the sport then you may regret it later. But honesty is the best thing to always have.

Novak Djokovic level of play, what is the point of watching the US Open

Category: Tennis betting news

How long will Djokovic be able to keep up this level of play. This has been for me (a Nadal fan) the most sickening, frustrating, awful year of tennis. It does not help that I feel Djoker has the least class of any of the top ten players on tour. He is the only male player I do not like. I hate how he is so predictable with what he will do. It ALWAYS goes to 4-4 first set, then he wins the final two games, and blows away the second set. He ALWAYS serves first, every set! I hate it. So much. When will he dip in play. Idc if he remains number one, I just want him to lose. Is there any point in watching the US Open? He’s going to win, I’ll bet my car.

OMG, I just wrote the same exact question!!!!!! I’m a Rafa fan, too but I don’t want him to lose for Rafa’s sake, I just want to see more players having confidence against him and being able to play better vs him. Nadal hasn’t had such a bad year, 5 masters finals before Rogers Cup, 2 GS Finals, and Barca but Djokovic has been killing him. I like him and his personality, but sometimes he can be annoying in a way. I just want other players to step up, and Rafa could really do that with his confidence. Roger has a great chance at Cincy provided he gets past JMDP, and I think he could be able to beat Djokovic. Rafa has an easy draw, too, so hopefully he bounces back:) And I agree with the whole 6-4 7-5 thing in the 1st set. Always happens. And he always wins because he’s 101-1 when winning the first set since last year. Duh. It sucks yeah, and I really see no point now in watching tennis like you said, unless something happens that brings life into the other players. They just need confidence. As a Nadal fan, I fully believe Rafa has a better chance vs Novak on HC, and his backhand is better there. It’s just the whole confidence issues. I think Rafa will bounce back though:) But If Djokovic wins Cincy,too. I’m done for the year. No point :(

As the saying goes: “Past performance is no guarantee of future success.”

Sure, Djokovic is the favorite at the moment. But actually putting it all together on the court is what people pay money to see. As Yogi Berra said: “It ain’t over ’til it’s over.”

We used to get tired of seeing Borg win every time he played [uh-oh, dating myself], and then, almost suddenly, he quit. Injuries happen. Guys play brilliantly and upset players you’d never expect them to. You never really know when big changes will come along.

The point of watching would be to see great tennis and to see who wins. Djokovic has won 1 grand slam this year out of 3. That doesn’t sound like he’s a slam dunk to win the US Open.

1. Yes Novak used to be quite arrogant but for the past 2 years or so he has been nothing but class. Gracious in winning and defeat, as hard as it is to remember what he’s like when he loses because he hasn’t been doing much of it lately =-).
2. Lol. A Rafa fan calling another player predictable. As much as i like Rafa as a person and a player, he is much more predictable than Novak is. His game his basically defend until he gets the chance to hit a big forehand down the line or crosscourt.
3. So what if he always serves first? He has that much confidence in his serve when he wins the coin toss that of course he is going to choose to serve first. And if that is the case then other players must always choose to receive against him right?
4. Nadal isn’t having a bad year at all. He can and has beat everyone else, except Djokovic. Now you know how Djokovic fans felt every time Nadal beat him. Can you believe that Nadal used to lead their H2H 14-4?
5. Of course you should watch. Even though Novak is the heavy favourite, nothing is set in stone. Maybe Nadal can repeat and salvage whats left of his “sickening, frustrating, awful” year..lol? Or maybe Federer can prove all the doubters wrong? Just don’t bet your car..

OMG I knowww!!! I totally agree with you. I am sick of him winning every single tournament he plays. I am also extremely annoyed with his on court behavior- screaming and shouting really loud whenever things go his way and he is really arrogant. It’s so hard to watch. And just to see im all happy on facebook & twitter all the time and having fun makes it even worse(lol, weird I know…).

He screwed Rafa’s head big time and I wonder how long will it take Rafa to recover from all of this, it’s really too much for anyone to handle.
I am also a Rafa fan and I am really disappointed with this year. Overall it’s a really great year if you look at it I mean he has reached 8 finals(all in very important tournaments) and I’m sure he would have won more titles if it hadn’t been for Novak…It was really frustrating to watch him lose 5 times in 5 finals :’(
I cannot remember I was ever THIS frustrated about tennis since I started watching it. I obviously still have a lot of hope and expectations, but none of them will come true if Novak keeps playing like this.

I really have high hopes for 2012, but I am definitely worried. If Novak wins the AO he will gain momentum again and that’s the last thing that I want. I don’t care anymore about the No.1 spot, I just want rafa to be happy & healthy and to win Slams(the French Open, Wimbledon and the Olympics are my priorities, I think you agree).
So fingers crossed, I hope 2012 will be a good year. If the same thing happens next year I will stop watching mens tennis.

he looks quite fit , so i hope it lasts for long

All of you idiots saying aww poor Rafa being beaten everytime by Djokovic. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT NADAL IS DOING TO FEDERER FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS!
You guys can’t even take it for less than a year. Nadal even won a friggin Grand Slam title this year ( Thank Fed for taking Djokovic out :)
Geez.

I’m enjoying every second of it. I love Nole more than anything and it’s so nice to see him win all the time. I have a lot of belief in him and I know he will win the US Open. Ajde Noleee!

Do you think a year is long enough to make your dog loose weight

Category: Tennis betting news

Well in March I saw my vet and he told me that both of my dogs had to loose weight, I told him that I wasn’t really able to take them out for walks since I got hurt at work and had Plantar Fasciitis, he said I bet that hurts. I told him yup, well he then told me I had a year to get the weight off my dogs because of my foot. My Lab had to loose at least 2 pounds because she can’t be over 60 pounds her body can’t carry the weight. And then my Mix had to loose 3.5 pounds because he has hip displysa and a knee that keeps popping in and out. The Vet said my mix’s whole life he can’t be over 55 pounds at all. And the reason why he had me have my mix loose weight is because he said that way when he gets old he has a little bit of weight to gain. So do you think it is enough time to get dogs to loose weight in a year. My husband and I are very active in the summer, when my foot is better I am going to be playing Tennis, playing base ball, walking 1 hour to 3 hours every day and going back to work. My husband will be playing tennis, base ball, riding his bike and roller blading with me.
I am not a bike person but a good half hour is good for me lol.
Some info the base ball is only my husband, the dogs and I. The dogs love to go after the balls but the ones they don’t get I go get and bring them back. We love the base ball fields.
We also play tennis with the dogs on the court, they get the balls I send out in left field lol. Some info I have been trying to walk and I can only walk 3/4 of a block right now but my dogs are loosing weight since the vet also told me to cut their food down by a half a cup. And my husband has been running them with the bike. I am trying to get myself up for roller blades so my dogs will have another way to get their engery out. Thanks for the answers:D
My lab plays fetch and Frisbee and comes back with both of them. Training a dog to fetch for me is the easiest thing to do. My mix loves to play fetch just he likes to chew on the ball on the way back to me lol. But he is learning Frisbee. I do have several things to throw balls with but my mix loves to chew up tennis balls, so we use soft balls. I walk every day for 3/4 of a block I am every 3 to 4 day adding a 1/4 of a block to my walk so I can be back to what I was :D

I think a year is definitely plenty of time. As for food, make sure you’re feeding them the best stuff you can afford, as you can usually feed them a bit less volume of food if the food you give them is full of more nutrients than fillers. You could hire a dogwalker to do regular walks every day? I’m sure some neighbourhood kid would be happy to do it for cheap, and this would get the dogs doing very regular exercise (instead of kind of random exercise depending on the season, your schedule and your foot.) If you can train them to fetch all the time then that’s great for getting them running without having to move around much yourself, especially if you buy a chuckit and take the dogs out to a big field to throw the ball extra far. I haven’t yet managed to get my dog to come back with the ball myself but I’m hoping it will happen soon…

I have never known it to take an entire year to get a dog down to normal weight.

The overweight dogs I have fostered have lost a significant amount of weight in weeks or months. One foster dog I had should have been about 30 lbs, but weighted 63 pounds when she came to me. She lost 23 pounds in just three months, without any extreme exercise.

Its more about what you feed them, and since they cant reach the food, dieting is relatively easy for a dog.

Two pounds on a 60 pound dog is a very small percentage. If the dog is getting the correct amount of food, it should be gone in a week or two.
