Default Re: Botting the WNBA Season...

I'm a noob as it comes to soccer betting, so by saying to bet Houston even you mean the three-way bet right, where you will only win if Houston wins outright and the match is not a draw?

That's correct - the bet is on Houston to win outright. And you have to factor in the odds you're being given. For example if it predicts Houston to win 52% of the time, if you're betting at, approx. -103, thats going to be a breakeven bet over time(Assuming my bot was 100% correct in it's assumptions). Or to make it simpler - if it predicts Red Bull to win 25% of the time, the break even bet would be +300 or 3-1 on Red Bull to win outright. (And obviously we don't want to break even [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) So it's good to go line shopping. Like as I posted above, 10/11 at Ladbrokes isn't a good bet for the Houston prediction, while I managed to get 2.12 at Betfair which was a good bet.
