From NCAA brackets to the Kentucky Derby, sports betting occupies a special place in American culture. Even in states where gambling is strictly illegal, police turn a blind eye to small stakes sports bets because they realize that there is a big difference between putting a few bucks on the home team and spending all weekend at a slot machine.

But most people lose money betting on games because they make decisions emotionally, backing either their favorite team or the underdog. As Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros shows you, it’s possible to make money at sports betting, but most people don’t even try.

And when they do, people too often get suckered by ‘systems’ that treat sports as if they were blackjack or poker, subject to rudimentary statistics. Sports advisory services aren’t much better, giving people weekly picks based on some opaque system that is never adequately explained – for a recurring fee, of course.

But sports aren’t like blackjack. It’s impossible to crunch all the data and come up with the perfect system. There’s too much information out there, and most of it probably isn’t even important.

If you want to beat the bookies, you need a system that combines the predictive power of mathematics with your intuition about how the game works and what variables really determine who will win. There’s almost no way you are going to find out something the bookies don’t already know, so instead you need something that can cut through all the noise and give you deeper insights into your favorite games.

ULTIMATE SPORTS BETTING STRATEGIES: BET LIKE THE PROS teaches a system based on the same stochastic models that meteorologists use to predict the weather and stock brokers use to analyze the market. These powerful techniques use feedback from games to continually improve their own performance.

But don’t feel intimidated. ULTIMATE SPORTS BETTING STRATEGIES: BET LIKE THE PROS does all the heavy lifting, explaining how to put these principles into practice with a step-by-step guide on how to construct your own iterative prediction system. You don’t need to deal with all the complicated mathematics, we’ve already done that and boiled it down into a process that you can put into action.

Even if you’ve never placed a bet before in your life, Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros explains how odds work, and the different systems that are used by bookies to represent those odds. It also covers all the standard bets (and not-so-standard bets) that are available to you.

Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros gives in-depth information on how to apply the iterative prediction system to baseball, basketball, football, mixed martial arts, and horse/dog racing. These sections point how which variables are worth paying attention to, what can safely be ignored, and what traps other bettors are likely to fall into.

Reading through these sections will help you understand the mindset behind the iterative prediction system when approaching novel bets or games that aren’t covered in the book.

A fully worked example walks you through the process so that you have something concrete to follow when you first get started, but before long you’ll be able to branch out on your own using the principles that are explained in this book.

Instead of offering gimmicks or overly simplistic platitudes about sports, Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros gives you a powerful system that will improve over time. Instead of making irrational bets that you have to justify later, Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros will teach you how to eliminate bias from the betting process so that you can find the best value bets and bring in steady profits week after week and year after year.

Finally, Ultimate Sports Betting Strategies: Bet Like the Pros covers the psychological aspects of betting that other systems would rather ignore. Bankroll management and a solid plan.
