Single Bet Slips or Multiple Game SL Slip

[pawanjain]

This thread is dedicated for a week analysis of sport betting,  using my current on-going sigle game selection of 2.0 odds bets, this is a test of the risks between single games selections vs multiple game's  selections.

Their risks and advantages,.

Let me know what your views is on two betting patterns.

Personally, I prefer to bet on single games rather than placing bets on multiple bets.
The reason is because I often end up losing few of the bets and end up in a net loss.
In single games though, I do win some of the times and hence get a feeling of winning occasionally rather than frequent losses.
So its better to place single bets instead.

How are you testing single games selection vs multiple games selection if you are only betting on single game? Didn't you need to do both to compare later the risks and which one was more profitable for you?

I have being on multiple bet for a while now and i dont like the results i won a few but the total loses recorded by me is higher than the winnings.

Update the first single bet above didn't end well i was heading towards losing when i cashed out the balance and to stake the next Manchester United games,  let see how this one goes i share some images as we progresses.

All today bet done on Betpanda, tomorrow games will be on BC.games casino let see what i get from both of them.

Multiple bets, like many of us do refer to as parleys always carry a much higher risk of losing than single bets, though the profitability or profit potential is also significantly higher than that of single bets, but also depends on how many legs one include in a ticket.

On the norm, the higher the legs, the higher the profitability but that also significantly increases the chances of ending up losing.

For me, I don't think it's even wise to compare this two betting patterns because in the end, single bets generally have better chances of winning more.

So, OP, are you saying that a single-bet strategy is more profitable than placing multiple bets? I’m asking this because I haven’t seen any comparison, or maybe I just missed it. For me, it’s hard to justify that a single-bet strategy is more profitable, since there’s no guarantee of winning anyway. The same applies to a multiple-bet strategy.
...

It's just how some gamblers assume it about single bets over multiple bets but the reality of it is that non of these strategy makes the bet a guarantee to win because we still can have losing streaks with a single bet strategy while someone with a multiple bet just got lucky to hit a huge profit in one bet which a 3 times single bet profit can't be compared. I think there's nothing much to justify about the two except that the risk difference is in the stakes.

No type is easier. With both the signal and the parlay, it's really not easy to choose a straight-winning team; no matter how strong they appear, they could still lose to a smaller team. That's what makes it a game of skill. No matter the type of data we have in our hand, we can only predict, but the real result lies in how those people play that very day, like Man United always seems to surprise us with their outcome.

Yeah even it's a heavy favorite upset can happen and it will ruin your bet, what we can do is to wait and see for the outcome, similar to what you said even how good is your research and how great in form of papers and actual performance but when bad game happen or any affecting injuries take place you still can't avoid losing your bet.

The very reason why bookies able to provide the types of odd offers as they knew that there's always a chance of getting upset or those handicaps will never be covered.

Bookies just always do their part; they don't really have the overall control of how the game will end. Sometimes we see a team with an injured player in the second half in football end up equalising and winning a game as if they were never under any shortage. Sports betting doesn't just have a perfect way to boast of constant winning.

Every bet we do and either single bets or multiple bets, there is no guarantee in any of them. But it depends on the gambler's perspective which of which is a better choice. If it increases the chance of winning, a gambler should their best preference in any of the two. Many here says that they're totally okay doing single bets which can't be changed if that's the preference that have proven them to apply their better strategy and won't be problematic with each of those single bets they make to lose. We know how multiple bets can go bad with a single drawn of loss.

Because that’s normal with parlays, I think that’s what the OP was referring to. It’s basically parlay vs single bets. No one really survives long-term using only parlays. With single bets, at least you’re dealing with one game at a time. That lets you focus more, analyze better, and slightly improve your chances.

But in reality, since most of us are losing players anyway, the real question is which option helps us lose less.
And 99% of the time, the answer is single bets.

[Peanutswar]

When it comes to the multiple bet slip I just do that when im confident with the other games such as the scores and match winners, the higher the number of games in the slip the higher the mutiplier of my bet but also you need to consider the other teams by that so tooks too much effort to deal with this multiple bets just one mistake of your bet you ended up lossing the slip already. Now in single bet you just need to focus with the single game also you can watch that without any consideration with the happenings on the same time matches.

[Questat]

When it comes to the multiple bet slip I just do that when im confident,,,,

I think we need to correct the terms first so it’s clear. It’s not about multiple bet slips. Based on the OP’s title, it’s about a multiple game slip. That means one bet slip with multiple games, which is a parlay, versus a single game on one bet slip.

Clarifying this is important so people who didn’t fully read the OP won’t get misled.

Definitely there's no guarantee for a win in any and it's just a matter of preference, however for a gambler to pick single bet over multiple bets they must be that gambler that has a high staking power because that's the only way to win something big when your bet plays, and you also be ready to lose big funds when your bet fails. Connecting the dots in the two I don't think any can be said to be the best choice.

Of course for single game selection there is every tendency that you could have about 50 percent winning ratio, and when comparing with the parlay bet I believe there could be a little slow down or breakage along the line as think that parlay bet is that very difficult to handle when it comes of making winning on your projection. Like the famous drake who usually stakes higher while gambling with just at least 1.5 odds, 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, and maximum on 2.0 odds he would stake with $500k, to $1m and when he loses he won't act as if he loses anything and I haven't seen him sharing multiple legs games or parlay bet.
So, I think with that he makes more profits than those who are gambling on parlay or multiple legs games.

I see multiple bets more like entertainment than strategy, if you’re betting small money just for fun, multis are fine, but if you’re testing risk and trying to grow a bankroll, single slips make more sense.

Yes I agree, bookies just do their part no control at all just like what you have said, though by providing odds they always have an insight though not a guarantee or whatsoever but their offer always connected to what will going to happen, especially those handicap, they provide that to have an option for the gamblers chooisng between lower odd or decent odd with extra risk because of certain circumtances that needed to take if you want to have better or higher amount of proftis.

I think some bettors sometimes choose both at the same time, because they may genuinely just want to have fun within the gambling budget they have. Personally, I tend to prefer single bets, because the chances of winning are slightly higher, and the risk we take is fairly commensurate to the amount we might win.

Of course, it’s not a problem to occasionally choose multi bets with small amounts, selecting several matches that you think make sense. I think those who have successfully won multi bets, even if the payout was not large, will still like them. The reason may be that they believe their skills are above average and want to keep testing themselves.

Single bet slip or multiple bet slip both have risks but for me I feel like the risk is more when you have multiple games. Sometimes you may  realize how risky a multiple bet slip can be especially when they tend to have not to much of odds on the several games but single bet slips is more like a direct win or lose when the game is played it's usually very easier to know if you have won or lost because you can just see the outcome already.  Sometimes is better to go round through a couple of games rather than just a single bet slip.

[Questat]

Single bet slip or multiple bet slip both have risks but for me ....

Again, that’s another misunderstanding of the OP. He didn’t mention multiple bet slips. It’s multiple games, but all on one bet slip.

I feel like the risk is more when you have multiple games. Sometimes you may  realize how risky a multiple bet slip can be especially when they tend to have not to much of odds on the several games but single bet slips is more like a direct win or lose when the game is played it's usually very easier to know if you have won or lost because you can just see the outcome already.  Sometimes is better to go round through a couple of games rather than just a single bet slip.

I think you shouldn’t focus too much on the risk, but more on the chances. With multiple games on one bet slip (a parlay), the chances are lower.

Just look at how the probability is computed.

Playing a single bet slip doesn't mean that your bet would always be successful, the advantage is that it's far less riskier than playing a multiple bet slip. Although you still need luck to be successful in both but playing a single bet is much more preferable since the risk factor is lesser compared to the other. Well people's urge for risk taking differs, I've seen people who prefer playing multiple games than single ones, they feel the higher the risk the greater the reward, it's their choice anyway.

[Orpichukwu]

I see multiple bets more like entertainment than strategy, if you’re betting small money just for fun, multis are fine, but if you’re testing risk and trying to grow a bankroll, single slips make more sense.

But how is betting on multiple games – more than you can follow up and watch – really playing for fun? I consider any form of bet which I place that's more than 5 games to be merely for profit and not just gambling for fun again.

[rachael9385]

If you are seeking for opinion about the one you will make your favorite, single bet should be your top choice, the risk of betting is there because the outcome are never known to your until the game comes to an end, but having multiple game on a slip and one game there didn't play as predicted, it will cause you to lose the bet even if all the other games were successful, so you can see the risk of betting on a multiple games in one slip is wide than single bet.

The only problem with single betting is that stake amount, since you are betting on a low value odd would have to bet with a reasonable amount of money  otherwise you would not get anything substantial. The chances of winning multiple games are very low but I think they re safe compared to single bet slips. But if you keep on staking high amounts you might lose a lot in the long run

The thing is, people who bet on multiple games often choose events with lower odds, while betting on a single match means choosing higher odds. In this case, it's difficult to say where the risks are higher and where they're lower. I understand that the more teams, the lower the probability of winning because you're dependent on many matches, but a single bet doesn't guarantee a win, and betting on low odds is also an unjustified risk.

[JeffBrad12]

Just as updated already,  there have been recorded loses in my single bets slips lately since this experiment started, this shows that asides from the lower risks of losing much often with multiple bets, single bet still have all the other aspects that comes aloong with multiple bet selected games and the noticeable differences i have noticed is this.

Single bets lower your risks of losing often to at least 20% but with a low percentage payout in winning since you be betting on single odd.

But multiple bets increases your rewards if you win you get up to 50% increase because you combine the odds of various game's and so your reward get accumulated.
Risk defines everything.

That's enough to proves single bet's reliability over the parlay. Winning like 30% - 100% steadily is far better instead of getting like a few hundreds % or more from parlay, but you have very low RW. That's the reason i consider parlay pretty much the same like lottery.
It's easy to find the real value from betting onto the single bet instead of doing parlay. However, parlay is good when  you have expected good games that offer greater probability to win.
