The betting industry keeps coming with new features to bring in new players and give something better to already existing players. A new concept of sports betting has been introduced at various bookies called bet builder. The bet builder feature helps you get better odds for a game by allowing you to build your own bets by letting you choose multiple selections from a wide range of events during a game. Punters who bet on football, basketball, tennis, cricket, ice hockey, UFC and many other sports are loving this feature as it gives a bigger pay-out on a single event by combining their bets. Let’s see how bet builder works by taking an example of the upcoming football match in the EPL this weekend, Manchester city vs Newcastle. During this game you can create a bet on who will win, how many goals will be scored, how many corners and what will be the exact score at the end of the game. After you choose your picks the bet builder feature will calculate odds for all these picks and you give odds where you can place a single wager and if all your picks are correct you win your bet. The downside of a bet builder feature is that all your picks have to be right for you to win your bet. If you pick 4 bets on a bet builder feature and three of them are correct but one is wrong then you lose your entire bet. Some casinos do give you the luxury of early cash out where you can prematurely end your bet and cash out a certain percentage of your winnings. To some it may seem a bit harsh but I believe instead of losing all your profit by one wrong prediction it’s better to leave with profit.

Have you ever bet on a sports event and as soon as the event started you began regretting your decision? Did you ever bet on a certain player for a match and just as the game was about to start you had a feeling that your selected player would not be in the starting line up? After realizing that you are about to lose a bet during halfway mark of a game did you ever wish there was a way to minimize your losses? Well then the cashout feature at casinos is just for you. When you place a bet on sports events certain casinos allow you to apply a feature called 'Cashout' where the casino offers you a certain value of your initial bet before the event ends. There are many scenarios where you can take advantage of this feature, let’s look at a few of them. Beginning of an event- Sometimes we get excited before a game begins and place bets on a certain team or a player and later on realize that it was a bad pick. Some casinos allow you to use a cashout feature where you are given a certain percentage of your original bet back and this is usually more than 50% of your bet. Half way mark cashout feature- We always figure out which way the game is heading during half time break as we have seen the performance of the team or a certain player. In these cases the cashout feature lets you withdraw at least 25% to 30% of your initial bet. In my opinion taking this amount is better than losing all your funds. Underdogs performing good- We all are loyal towards our Home/National teams even if they are weak and in some cases we bet in their favor. Fortunately sometimes even a weak team starts strong and our pick ends up getting an edge. During this time odds in the favor of the weaker team gets better. But we all know that strong teams are capable of making a comeback and this is where the cashout feature comes in handy and its one of the rare cases where ending your bet prematurely can get you a profit. I like to use the cashout feature in football games when a lower ranked team plays against a high ranking team. If the underdog team scores a goal or manages a clean sheet, the odds in their favor get better and the cashout feature ends up giving a profit.

So this year I have been working on a method for sports betting, with lots of work put into it (can't go into the details), some mistakes made here or there and improvements made during development and there. It's flexible and can be used on a wide variety of events but I prefer focusing it to a certain section for certain reasons. The last 4 bets have been successful going for a 5th, most of the bets have been kept less than 3 figs but if this next one goes successfully well it will for certain confirm a lot of things and I am also considering putting the method to work on 4 fig bets. So anyway I will come back here after the game to tell you how this bet went. If it wins, it is 5 wins in a row with this method, yes I will be a little disappointed that I didn't do a 4 fig bet but those 4 figs can wait there's plenty of opportunities. (5 of the last 7 predictions/bets have been correct) if this current bet wins it will be 6 of the last 8. Was considering doing 4 fig bets in the last few bets but for now keeping it less than that to make sure the method is good enough. If it doesn't win then the method needs more fine tuning. Come on 5 wins in a row!
