A GAME OF SKILL

Placing a sportsbet is a game of skill. The challenge is to gather and analyze as much information as you can about a game, weigh the probabilities of each team winning, and subsequently compare your opinion to the oddsmaker's.

While luck may be a deciding factor in the outcome of any single game, and will inevitably go against the bettor on occasion, it will balance out in the long run.

Being a consistent winner in sports betting is not about luck but whether the bettor is prepared to invest the time and effort to become knowledgeable about the sports he bets on, whether he can weigh all the factors in a cool, objective fashion, and whether he adopts a consistent, disciplined, long-term approach to betting.

The bookmaker is simply a middle-man who operates on a small profit margin and, ideally likes to see half the money wagered on one team and half on the other, assuring a profit.

If too much of the money goes on one team, the bookmaker will move the line or point spread to encourage bets on the other team in an effort to balance his book. The person the bettor is attempting to beat is the oddsmaker, and the oddsmaker's views on each team's chances.

Just by flipping a coin, bettors will be right 50% of the time. At odds of 10/11, only 52.4% of the bettor's bets have to win for him to overcome the bookmaker's profit and break even, so he only needs a very small edge to become a winner.

So bettors must do their homework and bet selectively. 55% winning bets is definitely achievable and 60-65% is a realistic target. At those levels, the sports bettor will have an extremely profitable and enjoyable hobby.

2024 NBA Western Conference Semifinals Game 2 Preview - Dallas vs. Oklahoma:
Can the Mavericks steal a road win against the Thunder?

2024 NBA Western Conference Semifinals Game 2 Preview - Dallas vs. Oklahoma: Can the Mavericks steal a road win against the Thunder?

May 9, 2024 by Marc Jerbs

On Thursday, May 9, the Oklahoma City Thunder will face the Dallas Mavericks in Game 2 of the 2024 NBA Western Conference Semifinals. Game time is set 9:30PM EDT at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, OK. The Thunder leads the series, 1-0.

As the NBA Western Conference Semifinals heated up, all eyes were on the electrifying matchup between the Mavericks and the Thunder as Game 2 promised to be a clash of titans, with Dallas hoping to even the series and the Thunder eyeing a 2-0 lead.

The Mavericks, led by their dynamic duo of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, enter Game 2 with confidence after losing in the series opener. Doncic, the maestro of the Mavericks' offense, shot poorly throughout the game as he was physically defended by an array of Thunder’s players and he is playing injured which hampered his movement throughout the game. Expect Dallas to play differently this time around as they want to steal one road win to even the series before they return home to Dallas for Games 3 and 4.

On the other side, the Thunder are determined to extend the series lead, 2-0 after routing the Maverick in Game. Led by All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who continues to elevate his game on the playoff stage, the Thunder boast a young but seasoned group of players. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has established himself as the leader of the pack and has enjoyed impactful contributions from his teammates such as Che Holmgren, Luguentz Dort and Jalen Williams. Oklahoma City have the depth and talent to challenge Dallas and win again at home.
