Therefore, the forecast for one match during the day can change several times if the behavior of the odds changes. Therefore, the forecast that you see 10-15 minutes before the match will be more reliable; it will not change.

It is also important to understand that forecasts based only on the behavior of the coefficient are not a panacea. It is best to use hot odds predictions as an addition to your existing opinion about the match, and if you bet primarily on Betfair exchange, then it is better to give preference to the service.

To do this, you just need to go to the official website of the office, choose the outcome you like and evaluate the odds offered by the bookmaker. What it is and how the odds are calculated and determined will be discussed in more detail in this article.

What is a bookmaker's odds

Before understanding the basic concept, let's say a few words about the activities of bookmakers. As you know, they profit from the result of a sports bet concluded between their organization and the player on conditions that are more favorable to them in advance. Bookmakers are entitled to a portion of the money as a margin for mediation plus the bettor’s funds in the event of an incorrectly predicted outcome (which happens quite often).

The office's experts establish the probability coefficient of an event based on own opinion. When forming it, the following nuances are taken into account:

1. The overall place of a team or individual athlete in the world ranking.
2. Previous performances in sports.
3. Individual current form.
4. The importance of the upcoming game and the motivation of each participant.
5. Venue (away or at home).
6. Some other factors that vary depending on the sport.

The bookmaker's odds are often adjusted before the start of the game when new, previously unknown circumstances arise. Attentive bettors notice and monitor such nuances.

Bookmaker odds and their types

There are many types of bookmaker odds in the world, but only three are considered generally accepted calculation systems:

1. English - has become widespread throughout the world due to its simplicity and convenience in calculations. It is written as a fraction, where the first digit means the winning amount, and the second - the bet amount.

Example: 20/5 – the player’s bet is 5 conventional units. In case of a successful outcome, his winnings will be 20 conventional units.

5/(20+5)*100 = 20%

1. European – a coefficient more familiar to us, which is used in bookmakers in our country as the main one. It looks like decimal, for example, 1.91. To calculate the winnings by the odds, you need to multiply it with the bet amount.

Example:

The player placed a bet of 100 conventional units on the event with odds of 1.91. If the prediction turns out to be correct, his winnings will be:

100*1.91 = 191 USD

As a percentage, net profit is equal to:

(01,91-1)/100 = 91%

1. American - mainly distributed in the USA and is rarely used on our continent. The coefficient formation system is more complex than those presented above, important criterion calculation is the status of the athlete or team. If there is a “-” in front of the number, the opponent is the favorite of the game, and the number itself indicates the amount that must be bet to make a profit of $100. "+" indicates an outsider. The number placed after the sign indicates the possible winnings with a bet of $100.

Why compare bookmaker odds?

Today in the territory Russian Federation There are about a dozen legal bookmakers operating there. Each of them sets its own odds for the same event. In some cases, they differ significantly, and choosing the largest of them can significantly increase your profit in the event of a winning outcome. Therefore, it makes sense to ask about the quotes from different bookmakers before placing a bet.

Comparing odds is a fairly scrupulous and time-consuming job that requires a lot of time and attention. For those who have neither the opportunity nor the desire to spend hours on the Internet, comparing posted events and the probability of outcomes in different bookmakers, special programs have been created.

Services for comparing bookmaker odds can be found freely available on the Internet. Using them will allow you to find the most profitable option and get the maximum profit for the correct forecast, as well as save valuable time searching for the best odds manually.

In addition, such programs will be useful to fans of the arb system for searching biggest difference in figures issued by different offices.

Comparing bookmaker odds is one of the surest ways to increase profits, which is always present in the arsenal of a professional better.

Comparison of bookmaker quotes using the example of BC 888 RU and Betcity

If automated programs are not your thing, then you can learn how to quickly compare quotes in different bookmakers. We analyze the upcoming match based on statistical data and determine the likely outcome on which we will bet. Naturally, accounts have already been created in several offices (how to register with TsUPIS and reviews of legal bookmakers).

In order not to wander through categories, we’ll use a search or a filter (strangely, both are missing in). All modern sites provide this opportunity. Difficulties can only arise with finding little-known non-Russian names of teams or athletes, whose names may be spelled differently in different bookmakers. For others this method always works.

We are waiting for the NBA match between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers. We will search by the simplest name “Cleveland”. Different services provide information to the bettor in their own way, but this is not as important as the clarity of the result. immediately displays a pop-up window with a quick transition to the betting page.

We immediately see odds of 1.55 on the Golden State and 2.8 on Cleveland

There are no tips on Betcity; information can only be obtained by clicking the magnifying glass icon or pressing the Enter key.

They often announce plans to enter the international market, and some companies have already successfully conquered it (at least in words). The ambitions of domestic bookmakers have always been great, but they are rarely supported by deeds.

By domestic bookmakers we mean not only Russian offices, but also offices from the CIS countries. They are very similar to each other, although sometimes they are aimed at different markets. Let's try to compare foreign bookmakers with our companies working in this area. For this purpose, we have selected 10 main evaluation criteria.

Experience

Is the oldest office Russia, which has been operating since 1994. It's pretty long term, but in comparison with some foreign companies, the company looks like just a baby. founded in 1934, and back in 1886. Naturally, there are other examples, the same one appeared only in 2000, but bookmakers abroad try to learn from each other’s experience, and our offices always follow their own unique path.

Line and painting

Some domestic bookmakers offer a good line (,), but in general the offers of European and Asian bookmakers are much better. At the same time, the lower Russian leagues are better represented by our offices. , for example, even accepts bets on championships of individual Russian cities.

Odds

Quotes in foreign offices are always higher, although recent years good example serves . The office not only surpasses all domestic bookmakers in terms of odds, but can also give a head start to most foreign bookmakers.

Reliability

If tomorrow he declares himself bankrupt and refuses to return the money to the players, then this will of course cause a shock at first, but over time all the players will agree that everything was going that way. It is simply impossible to imagine the same situation.

Among foreign bookmakers there are also many companies with an unscrupulous reputation, but their best representatives are role models. Say the same thing about , and you won’t mind. Each of these offices will receive hundreds of negative reviews from offended players. The very fact that these offices can cut the maximum bet only because successful game, says a lot.

Language support

Just 10 years ago, domestic players preferred bookmakers from the CIS only because of the Russian-language interface, but now every second large foreign office has a Russian-language version of the site.

Resource functionality

Previously, Russian bookmakers lagged far behind in this indicator, but now the functionality of the websites of domestic bookmakers is practically not inferior to foreign bookmakers.

Help Desk

All European companies are distinguished by the fact that they always meet their customers halfway. In this regard, domestic bookmakers have a lot to learn from them. Often when uncomfortable questions The support of many Russian bookmakers simply ignores the players.

Betting limits

You may think that the betting limits at any bookmaker are quite satisfactory, but this is only as long as you bet on popular football markets. Professionals have to bet on the lower divisions of unpopular markets, and there betting limits come to the fore. Not a single Russian bookmaker can offer such limits as other large foreign offices.

Payment methods

Work with an account in foreign bookmakers is carried out accessible ways, but still in Russian offices the player will feel more relaxed. Not every European office works with payment systems Qiwi, Yandex-Money and carries out transactions using a Maestro card.

Charity

Many foreign companies donate part of their income to charity. They support children's and youth competitions in various types sports, act as sponsors of individual tournaments and teams. Russian bookmakers behave in a completely different way. It only sponsors a few clubs, but they all represent foreign championships.

Although some Russian bookmakers also have something to praise for, in general they are inferior to foreign bookmakers. Yes, you can bet on lower Russian divisions in them, but everyone knows that in such tournaments, like nowhere else, there is a high probability of match-fixing.

Russian bookmakers will suit you just as long as you play for small amounts and lose more often than you win. Only you will go out to professional level and you will immediately understand that serious players have nothing to do in Russian bookmakers, but fortunately there are foreign bookmakers with a reliable reputation that treat both losing players and successful bettors equally well.

Legal bookmakers, no matter how much anyone wants it, will still enter the lives of sports bettors sooner or later. This is not an assumption, but a real inevitability. That is why in the summer I decided to register with all the bookmakers that had received legal status that I could get my hands on. Currently there are only 4 of them:

• BC "Liga Stavok"

I'll be honest: the legal side has problems sports betting in Russia there are a huge number. In my subjective opinion, this is due to the fact that it is more profitable for bookmakers to develop a shadow business than to start investing with a licensed option. I also have the answer to the question “why” in the subcortex of my brain, but I won’t voice it, since my opinion sharply does not coincide with the public one.

Anyway, BC "Liga Stavok"(albeit out of competition) gets into my poor hit parade. I'm trying to compare the main parameters for most players: line, pattern and odds.

Naturally, for some these criteria are not the most important, so write in the comments what else is worth comparing and telling?

Once upon a time there was a comparison that...

Line

The bookmaker's line is an important component of the work of any bookmaker

If I need to find something interesting regarding sports betting options, the first thing I do is go to the “1xBet” website

But the site developers included something exotic for Russian players, such as betting on virtual football.

Now about the main loser of my first rating of legal ones - "888.ru". I am deeply convinced that “whatever you call a ship, that’s how it will sail.” A raft with that name floats in the ocean of bookmaking, and no one would be interested in it if it had not become one of the first to discover ONLY legal site. As for me, such an announcement only adds responsibility to the bookmaker, but, apparently, not in this case. The bookmaker offers a very large line - more than 40 sporting and other events. Is it true, 39 of them are hidden under the heading “other sports”, and if you look closely, there is too much repetition. For example, you can create a separate betting directory for virtual games or combine all fights (boxing, MMA, UFC) into one pile.
BUT!

In August, when I wrote my negative review about the bookmaker, there was practically nothing on the line except the most significant sporting events.

It looks like 888.ru is developing and perhaps deserves a second chance to be tested. So, completely unexpected bets appeared in the office, like positions on the series “ The Walking Dead"or the same Gaelic football. There is even such a unique sport as netball, and there are two competitions for it.

That is , if I click “football”, then before the Champions League and the German Bundesliga I have to skip a whole bunch of other competitions.

painting

Painting for a player is like a buffet at an all-inclusive hotel

As for me personally, I like the selection of individual totals for basketball players - you can find not only points, but also assists and rebounds.

If we again take basketball as a starting point, then Winlinebet is completely weak here - even such simple bets, such as totals or handicaps, are presented in some cut-down versions; you cannot deviate either to the right or to the left from the standard.

There is one the main problem at BC “888.ru” - for some reason, the office regularly makes the choice of certain bets unavailable.

Painting in BC "Liga Stavok" not even worth a separate mention. One hundred variations of approximately the same bets related to the goals of a particular team, their timing and final outcome. And this is for football. About basketball - the picture is approximately the same as in the bookmaker Winlinebet - terribly meager, no departure from the standard options, maximum 1-2 points.

Odds

The coefficient cannot be too high

BC "1xBet" is in no way inferior to these mastodons, and sometimes greatly superior.

For comparison, just go to BC Winlinebet, and see the example of the same basketball. 1,84/1,84 . That is, the bookmaker took 16% of your future profit. Robbery, and that's all.

Bookmaker "888.ru" ready to compete in greed with bookmaker Winlinebet. Here the coefficient options look approximately the same: 1,85/1,85 . In both cases (bookmaker Winlinebet and bookmaker 888.ru), however, the odds are specifically for basketball.

If you rummage through the big ones football matches, then you can find 10% or in some places even 9%.

Z.Y.: despite the fact that BC "1xBet" took unconditional first place in the ranking in terms of line, painting and coefficients, to exalt legal bookmaker not worth it. It is very important that the bookmaker’s office is developed comprehensively, and not only from one side. Therefore, once again I suggest you choose criteria for further analysis of bookmakers.

Odds are a sacred word for every betting fan. Profit and chances of winning depend on these numbers. But few people think about how this very coefficient is formed, and what are the reasons for the frequent changes in numbers as the event approaches. After all, not everything is so simple in betting - I chose the most high coefficient and earned money - for this you need to gain experience, and you can’t get very rich on small numbers, so each player has to carefully study the odds in order to increase his bet several times over.

Bookmakers have special analytical departments that monitor odds and make appropriate adjustments until the end of the event. Calculations of indicators are made taking into account many parameters: the current form of the team, overall results, individual factors, the importance of the match for both sides. There are no accidents in this area.

For the common man and betting enthusiast, this is just a figure that the bookmaker offers, but for a bookmaker, this is a figure that gives him a guarantee of success.

How are bookmaker odds calculated?

Let's give an example.

Let's take the match "Bavaria" - "Borussia" D, where the favorite is pre-determined. The bookmaker gives a 60% chance for the first team to win - 30% for a draw - 10% for the visiting team to win.
We divide the 100% probability by the percentage of the teams' chances and get odds of 100/60 = 1.66, 100/30 = 3.33 and for the visiting team to win 100/10 = 10.

Types of odds

On at the moment There are several main types:

• European;
• English;
• American.

The type of odds used by a bookmaker depends on the geography of its location. But the most reputable bookmakers (they are presented in our rating) give their clients the opportunity to place bets in any of the main types of odds.

So what do they mean? You need to understand the difference between the payment to the account and the profit received. When your bet wins, the bet amount and winnings are credited to your account - all together this is called pay. If we subtract the amount of your bet from the payment, then we get what we are betting for - profit.

European odds (decimal)

The most common type. On the bookmaker’s website they look like this: 1.73, 2.10, 1.22, etc. To understand what payout you will receive based on the European odds, you need to multiply the bet amount by it.

For example, if you bet $100 at odds of 1.90, you will receive payment$100 x 1.90 = $190.

Profit from this bet (you remember what the differences are?) will be equal to $190 - $100 = $90.

English odds (fractions)

Typical for British offices. On the bookmaker’s website they look like this: 2/7, 3/5, 7/9, etc. To understand what payout you will receive from a bet using English odds, you need to divide the first number (up to the line) by the second, add one, and multiply the resulting number by the bet amount.
If you arm yourself with a calculator, then everything is much simpler than it sounds.

So, you decided that there is an excellent ointment, it has the English odds of 4/7, and you need to load $100 into it.
In case of inevitable success, your pay will be:
(4: 7) + 1 = 1.57 and multiply by the bet amount 1.57 x $100 = $157. For calculation profits subtract the bet amount from the payout and get 157$ - 100$ = 57$.
If you are specifically interested in profit, then it can be calculated faster. To do this, you need to divide the first number (up to the line) by the second and multiply by the bet amount (4: 7) x $100 = $57.

The easiest way to choose the right bookmaker is to refer to our rating. It exclusively presents honest offices who will never deceive clients, because their reputation is the basis of business.

American odds

They look very unusual and can be positive or negative.

• Positive- show how much you can earn with a bet of 100 units. On the website, the offices look like this: +150, +200, + 350, etc.
  

  If you decide to deposit $150 on the American odds +200, then to determine your payments you need to divide the odds (+200) by the number 100 and add one (200: 100) + 1 = 3. Now let’s multiply what we got by the bet amount: 3 x $150 = $450. This is your payment.
  To immediately calculate profit, you need to divide the American odds (+200) by the number 100 and multiply by the bet amount (200: 100) x $150 = $300.

• Negative American odds show how much you need to bet to get 100 units. On the bookmaker’s website they look like this: -150, -200, -350, etc.
  

  If you bet $150 on an American odds of -200, then to determine your payout you need to divide the number 100 by the odds and add one. For our example (100: 200) + 1 = 1.5. Now let's find out the size payments: multiply the resulting number by the bet amount 1.5 x $150 = $225.
  To immediately calculate profit, you need to divide the number 100 by the odds and multiply by the bet amount (100: 200) x $150 = $75.

The variety of bookmakers is so great that players have an excellent choice, especially when a person places bets online - he can compare several companies at once. It is better to have several accounts, while choosing best odds on the predicted outcome of the event. This allows you to earn maximum possible amount. At the same time, it is very important to register with the most famous bookmakers, which have been working in the betting market for several years. They make regular payouts of winnings, hold forecasting competitions and give substantial bonuses for new players. Bookmakers have proven themselves to be excellent 1X And Vinline. They have been in the market for a long time and are famous for their honesty and fairness towards their clients.

Why do bookmaker odds change?

Another advantage of betting on similar online services serves as an opportunity to make your choice when the odds are most beneficial for the player. After all, from the start of accepting bets on an event until its end, the odds are subject to serious changes, as they depend on many factors.

There are several strategies for bookmakers. The main ones: gradual demotion coefficient for the favorite of the event, and for others - promotion betting on the favorite. Both systems are quite effective for both bookmakers and players - they can catch the highest bets on the outcome of a particular event.

There are also more mundane factors besides strategic ones that influence changes in odds - player injuries, disqualifications, weather conditions, the arrival of newcomers - all this is taken into account when changes are made.

Large bookmakers (1X, Winlinebet, Leon) have analytical departments. Thanks to analysts, such bookmakers instantly respond to any changes in the balance of power and provide players with updated odds instantly. Smaller bookmakers cannot afford to maintain such analytical departments, collaborating one-time with such firms and receiving stable lines for all events in sports. However experienced players They do not pay much attention to changes in odds, but analyze the games themselves.

Odds are the most important factor in betting. They excite the imagination of players and increase the contents of the wallets of experienced bookmakers. It is thanks to the coefficients that we have modern world betting, which tickles our nerves and gives us the opportunity to make money on sports betting!
