New Fight News Unlimited Sponsor ODDSJAM Helps Make Sports Betting More Profitable

De: Bogat Bergeron

Fight News Unlimited is on a new quest to recruit sponsors, and we just landed a very important one to bolster our upcoming Weekly Combat Sports Wager Report column. That column will be debuting this coming Thursday, so stay tuned.

Cote is a sophisticated software suite that helps users get the best odds and take advantage of profitable betting strategies. The software combs just about every sportsbook you can think of and can easily be tailored to search only the books in your particular area for the best betting opportunities.

I was recently introduced to the concepts ofarbitrage betting” și “middle betting.Both of these strategies specifically target inconsistent odds and varying prop bet offerings on different sportsbooks and sportsbook-adjacent apps like Underdog Fantasy, Prize Picks and Betr.

Cote can literally help you make sure you never lose money on sports betting again. Arbitrage betting and middle betting strategies can’t work without the ability to find and capitalize on the best information out there, care Cote provides. Doing a manual search for the info they provide instantly in real time would take forever.

Keep in mind, you need a bankroll of $2,000 or more to make the best of these two strategies for earning a guaranteed profit. You can also get limited or banned by sportsbooks that are able to detect what you’re doing to generate that profit.

Here’s a great tutorial that shows you exactly how Cote works, how to avoid getting limited or banned for using it, and why it’s worth the monthly or yearly subscription fees:

Cote is truly the best tool available for sports betting. You can also use their software to find which sportsbooks offer the best lines for different events. I have been a dedicated user for about a year now, and I love the ease of use and amazing features they offer.

I am by no means a professional gambler. I needed all the help I could get when I first signed up for Cote. One way I limit my losses is by only betting $5 on each wager and trying to stick to sports I know well. Although most professional gamblers with huge bankrolls advise staying away from parlays, that’s how I capitalize on my $5 personal bet limit. Here are just a few of my biggest wins since I started using Oddsjam:

I do my own research in addition to utilizing software like Cote, and one tip I can offer is to watch fights as much as possible to get to know the fighters you are putting your money on.

I also use Sherdog.com to comb through records of each fighter to see how long they’ve been fighting and where they’ve fought. Chances are if Fighter A has 17 fights in the UFC and is facing Fighter B who is making his UFC debut on a week’s notice, Fighter A is typically the best one to put your money behind.

Sportsbooks also often allow for betting on what I callfeeder leagueslike LFA, which is one of the UFC’s deepest recruiting pools. The favored fighters usually win on those cards, so finding an underdog winner to parlay into a profitable bet can be very challenging.

Dana White’s Contender Seriescan also provide winning opportunities if you are capable of a little deep research. The prospects who appear on these cards might have long winning streaks, but it’s important to find out who their opponents really were. Sometimes you might see an undefeated fighter on there against a journeyman and think the smart bet is the guy with no losses. Look deeper and you could find the undefeated guy fought his whole career against tomato cans with no wins of their own.

Inside information is also crucial. Sometimes that type of intel goes public, like a couple weeks ago when UFC fighter and commentator Michael Church hyped up Juliana Miller on the pre-fight show for UFC on ESPN 67. Her opponent Ivana Petrovic was a decent favorite, and Miller came into the fight with a record that did not look all that impressive.

Chiesa reported that Miller was looking like a beast in training at the same gym he calls home. Sure enough, Miller won handily as the underdog against a game and formidable opponent. It pays to keep your ears open for these kinds of tips.

Many times in the post-fight interview a winning male fighter will also cite the fact that he is a new father. I call it the Baby Daddy factor. If you know before the fight that a particular fighter is making a new commitment to the sport after the birth of a child, that kind of inspiration can be key.

A death of someone close to a fighter can also have a huge effect on the outcome of a fight. Consider one of the greatest upsets of all time: James “BusterDouglas beating “Fier” Mike Tyson. Buster’s mother tragically died just 23 days before the fight. Douglas promised her before she died that he would beat Tyson. După cum știm cu toții, he kept that promise and shocked the world in the process. Imagine what it must have felt like to have a winning bet on that fight.

Former UFC Fighter and Coach James Krause literally made a living betting on UFC fights with insider information. Most of us among the average betting public don’t have access to that kind of knowledge, deși. Așa, instead of banking on hunches, we should take advantage of every useful tool we can find to beat the books.

No matter what sport you like to bet on, Cote is a tool you should have in your toolbox if you need a little help finding success. Take advantage of their free trial and give it a month to work to your ultimate benefit. Your bank account will thank you for it.

If you are interested in a formal sponsorship with Fight News Unlimited, email Rich Bergeron at rich.bergeron@gmail.com for more information.
