基础体育赛事
一个适当的体育博彩战略结合许多不同的元素，创造一个整体系统，通过精选的游戏，保存资金，从长期来看还可以赚钱。一整本书都可以写关于游戏赌博的 - 但现在，我们就简略的叙述一些基本的知识。此外，如果你不遵循这些体育博彩基础知识，不管你的技术有多好，你最终都会输掉钱。
进行资金管理
您的资金在您的体育博彩生活中显然是最重要的一部分。如果你不善于管理您的体育博彩资金，你就算不上是一个有经验的体育投注者。一般的经验法则是使每次下注的资金都不会超过你所有资金的1-2％。大的赌注将很快用你全部的资金。记住，没有任何一件事情比体育投注这样的事情简单。
我知道1％的投注确实比较小，但如果你遵循这些准则和很好的将其运用在进行游戏选择的过程中，您的资金将会以惊人的速度增长。您的投注大小会增加，这反过来使您的资金增长得更快，接着也使您的赌注大小增加，就这样的循环往复。
您需要把您的资金看成是一个企业的库存。作为一个体育投注者，你是在进行自己的业务 - 无论你是全职或兼职都不要紧，要紧的是要将精力放在商业上，并想着怎样转向盈利。好了，如果你正在消耗你的资金，冒着不必要的风险，然后失去了这一切，你将不会有任何资金再来赚取利润。
长远的眼光
为了让自己保持清醒，在体育博彩上你要将自己的目光放长远。如果你能保持54％的优势（一个非常可观的优势），你必须得像扑克玩家那样做一些调整。这也是为什么要保持拥有如此庞大资金的原因。
在过去的一年中，即使你有一个60％的优势，你也可能在所有时间中会遇到为期一周的时段失去优势。您还极有可能在某些地方一整个月都会处于低潮。不过没关系，因为你有雄厚的资金，你得看长远。您将有很大机会赢会所有下注和一星期你所失去的金钱。不要被短期的结果将你愚弄。
如果你开始时像大多数人那样下小额资金，从长远看就很容易分心。如果你有$ 1,000，并放置10元至20元的赌注，可以赢得其中的60％。在这里的，关键在于思考其中的百分比，而不是绝对的金额。

Learning The In’s and Out’s of Sports Wagering
Sports Betting Basics
A proper sports betting strategy combines many different elements to create an overall system that picks games, preserves the bankroll and wins money in the long run. An entire book could be written on picking games – but for now we’ll just stick to the basics. Besides, if you don’t follow these sports betting basics, you’ll lose all your money no matter how good you are.
Bankroll Management
Your bankroll is obviously the most important part of your sports betting life. If you mismanage your sports betting bankroll, you won’t be a sports bettor for long. The general rule of thumb is to make each bet no larger than 1-2% of your entire bankroll. Big bets will kill your bankroll faster than anything else. Remember, there is no such thing as a sure thing when it comes to even the simplest of sports wagers!
I know 1% sounds tiny but if you follow these guidelines and practice good game selection, your bankroll will grow at a surprising rate. Your bet sizes will increase, which will in turn make your bankroll grow faster, which will in turn make your bet sizes increase – and so on and so forth.
You need to treat your bankroll as seriously as a business treats its inventory. As a sports bettor, you’re in business for yourself – whether you’re full-time or part-time doesn’t matter. What matters is staying in business and turning a profit. Well if you spend your cash, risk it unnecessarily and lose it all, you’re not going to have any inventory left to make a profit.
The Long Term View
To keep yourself sane, you need to take a long term view on sports betting. If you can maintain a 54% advantage （a very respectable advantage）， you’re going to experience some sick swings just like poker players do. That’s also why it’s important to keep such a massive bankroll.
Even if you have a 60% advantage over the course of a year, you’ll run into week long losing streaks all the time. You’ll also most likely have a losing month in there somewhere. But that’s ok because you have a deep bankroll and you look to the long term. You’ll have great weeks where you win all your bets and terrible weeks where you lose them all but in the end it all averages out. Don’t let short term results fool you.
It’s easy to get distracted from the long term view if you’re starting out on a small bankroll like most people do. If you have $1,000 to work with and are placing $10 to $20 bets and winning 60% of them, it’s going to feel like you’re taking forever to get anywhere. The key here is to think in terms of percentages, not absolute dollar amounts.
