What does 1.15, 2.60 etc. mean? So if I bet one dollar on Bayern defeating Hertha, I would have gotten $1.15 back or sonething? And if they defeat Lerverkusen I would get $2.60 back for my one dollar placed in the bet?

Yes, it's how much you get for every 1$ you bet.

EDIT : nnao beat me to it lol and yes the amount you get includes the $1 you put in, so $1.15 would be $0.15 of profit.

Yeah, not at all. I guess I should take up betting on Bayern's games then, starting with like 100 bucks. Might even beat my index funds. :lol:

Any legit and good places to place bets on Bayern games?

You wont make money backing any top team every game...not Barca, Bayern, PSG.

Better waiting for games where you think they are value to win or lose or to win by a few goals.

Yeah thats right, but you cant win money from betting anyway. I mean you can win sometimes, but in most cases you will lose your money.

Thanks! Is betting on football matches universally legal by the way? Or varies country to country?

If you decide to bet, on barça at least, I would advise you follow pacp_96's score predictions hehe that's as close as it gets apparently ^^

Of course you can, i'm winning all of the time

I won £400 from £5 betting on Atletico to win the league

I started from £5 a few months ago and i'm sitting on near £700 and going strong.

Not particularly difficult, few both teams to score, better team to win at HT for better odds. A few accumulators.

Just keep on playing and you will lose them eventually..It's always like this. If you bet rarely its ok, but if you do this all them time, you will always lose more money than you win, guaranteed.

I bet every week and am betting with my winnings, i started from £5

I'm losing nothing. Albeit it was difficult to kickstart with low money, but now it's easier.

You can win if you bet on value. Not many can. Vast majority of that minority lose out too because they can't handle few losses and can't follow their money management.
