Our first tip to beginners on sports betting is that you need to start slowly. It can be very exciting at the start but it is important to take things slowly and make sure that you know what you are getting yourself into. By doing so, you can easily increase your winning chances and that will take you to our next tip.
Tip #2: Learn the Basics
As stated before, betting on sports can be very simple but that is not enough for you to get started. Understanding the basics before you place a bet will help you increase your winning chances and enjoy the action as well. Although understanding the basics is not the only tip to a profitable bet, it will also show you the right way to get started.
Tip #3: Have Realistic Expectations
Never have unrealistic expectations while betting on sports. Sports betting can be fun and profitable but never put high expectations that you’re going to win big and make a living out of sports betting. We are not saying that you are not going to make money out of sports betting, but for beginners it is important to have the knowledge and right expectation from the start.
Tip #4: Bet with a Clear Mind
Our next tip is very important to beginners as you are advised to only make bets when you have a clear mind. Although having a drink and betting or watching sporting events is said to be fun but it is best to never place your bets under the influence of drugs or alcohol. We strongly suggest that for better and profitable betting decisions you should get your bets done before drinking.
Tip #5: Develop a Bankroll Management Plan
Developing a bankroll management is another important tip on this page. Since you are betting with real money, it is important to set your budget from the start. Remember losing money is more likely than winning it back so it is best advised to set your budget to an affordable amount. You can easily set a weekly budget, monthly or yearly it is totally up to you.
Tip #6: Bet on Sports That You Know Well
If you are new to sports betting, it is always a good idea to start betting on sports that you know well. It can be fun and attractive betting on different types of sport when you are new to betting but it is best advised to start with the ones you know well rather than betting on sports you know little or nothing at all. By doing so it will help you make good and profitable betting decisions.
Tip #7: Remain Disciplined
To remain disciplined is one of the hardest parts for bettors betting on sports. Most bettors, beginners and pros are having troubles to remain disciplined while betting on sports as it is very easy to allow your emotions to take over. If you find it hard to keep your feelings in and remain disciplined, try holding off from betting for a while as this will help you from making unnecessary bets.
Tip #8: Keep Records
Record keeping is an important tool for knowing how much is being spent. If your long term goal is to make a profit, keeping records will also help you find ways succeed. For each bet we recommend to record the following information
Selection
Selection of odds
Stake size
Bet results
Payout received (if wager won)
The above information will help you keep track of everything, it is simple and there’s no excuse for not doing it.
Tip #9: Find a Trusted Betting Site
Choosing a trusted site is an important tip and there’s quite a large number of online betting sites in Tanzania out there that are ready to accept your bet. But since you will be playing with real money, it is important that you make your bets on a trusted site so you don’t end up losing your money or any confidential information to a not trustworthy betting site.
Tip #10: Don’t Pay for Picks
Our final tip on this guide is to never pay for any picks on sports betting. Most people offering the service are said to be fraudsters and scammers and many are not really good at what they do. Not saying they are no excellent tipsters out there, but in most cases they are very few. For beginners, it is better to try and focus on betting with your own knowledge rather than depending on tipsters to help you do it.
