…pay no attention to this article, it’s frankly rubbish. Of the ten tips, 2/3 make some sense, the rest show a massive lack of understanding. My pick of the most misleading:
“1. Use the power of multi bets. Often joining two heavy favourites in a multi bet gives the same odds as an outsider. It pays very well.”
This is to put it mildly, utter rubbish… unless you know what you are doing, having multibets actually reduces the value you are getting as the bookies edge gets multiplied the more selections you add.
“9. Use common sense and pick a winner before looking at the odds.”
This made me laugh heartily. Never, ever dismiss the odds, I don’t care how many winners you are picking, if the odds aren’t better than the probability of those winners then you are losing.
