I will now put this puppy to bed with one article i found just now by googling DO CHASE SYSTEMS WORK in sports Betting !
With the advent of computers, it seems like there are thousands of
sports betting systems sprinkled all over the internet today. And, as
you may or may not know, most are basically a get rich scam promising
you of riches in no time (This is not a reality in any business, let alone sports betting).
A
system may be a good starting point, but you'll always need to look
more into it from a subjective side. The reason why is because they're
typically based on historical trends which may be relevant or absolutely
meaningless.
Most of the more well known sports betting systems (Sports Betting Champ, Sports Betting Professor...etc)
also utilize what's called a chase...which can be detrimental to your
bankroll if you lose one of the chases. Typically they utilize a three
game chase system.
Here is an example of a three game chase
system: You would bet $110 to win $100 on Game 1. If you win then you
won that chase. If you lose, then you bet what you lost plus what you
were trying to win originally. So for Game 2, you would bet $231 to win
$210
(originally trying to win $100 plus the $110 that you lost in Game
1 and also -110 juice equals the $231 to win $210 for Game 2).
If you win, then that chase series of bets is over, however if you
lose, you then have to add up everything you've lost and add what you
where originally trying to win ($100 plus the $110 lost in Game 1 plus
the $231 that you lost in Game 2 and also -110 juice equals $486 to win
$441).
So for Game 3 you would now wager $486 to win $441. If
you win that, all is great, but if you lose then that's one heck of a
chunk out of your bankroll (plus a lot of these systems being sold
require to buy points or lay a lot more juice than the typical -110).
You can see how it adds up quickly if you're losing.
Sports Betting System RealityI
know a lot of these so called sports sports betting systems claim to
have 80%-97% winners but that's just not realistic. In reality they may
be winning 80%-97% of their three games series' bets, but if you lose
2-3 of those Game three bets, that can wipe out a lot of your bankroll.
It
certainly reads as if they're winning 80%-97% (which is mathematically
impossible over the long run unless of course you have some kind of
inside information) of every single bet they make, but in actuality it's
only 80%-97% of there three game chases that they're winning.
It's
basically a marketing ploy to get you to buy into what they're
selling...and by the the success of this marketing these sports betting
systems are touted everywhere on the internet.
With all of that
said, I'm not trying to bash on them. I just want you to be aware of
how they work and what to expect if you're to purchase one. You need to
have a very strict money management strategy in place if you're to
follow any of these systems (typically 1/4 to 1/2 of your normal unit
size but I'll go into more detail with each system I review).
With
so many people promoting them (extremely biased because they're getting
paid), don't believe the hype that you're going to get rich quick.
Every time I read a website that's touting how rich you're going to get
from using such system, it just pisses me off.
Trust me, IT'S NOT REALITY.
There's no such thing as a get rich quick sports betting system. Now,
they can be another arrow in your sports betting quiver, but by no
means should you rely solely on them.
Most range anywhere from $50
to $200 for a lifetime subscription. Some are good, some are ok, and
some you just need to stay away from. Don't believe everything you read
on their website because, obviously, they're just trying to sell you
their service or product (and sometimes it's not the most ethical way to
do it).
Like I said, there are some truly good sports betting
systems out there today, but it's up to you to put in the time to
validate the system as well as tweak it for factors that it can't
account for i.e. injuries, weather...etc.
