Just when should you place a bet to win big?

Just when should you place a bet to win big? Should you place that important bet a few days before a game, or just before the first whistle? This is one question many bettors are grappling with.

Here is what you need to do.

They say time is money, and the phrase couldn’t have been truer in betting. You need time to conduct your personal analysis before placing a bet, but you must be careful when choosing the best time to bet.

Depending on the types of options, you can bet either very early, very late or when the game is on.

My advise to bettors is place jackpot wagers and other longer-period bets as late as possible, then wait for the outcome. This is because you need time to analyse the games using information available online, as well as advice from more experienced punters.

You should also wait a bit longer before placing a jackpot bet because their odds tend to remain constant throughout. Just falling short of on one match will bring the entire bet collapsing like a house of cards!

For those who place bets on daily matches, be it single games or multi-bets, betting as early as possible is the best option.

This is because betting companies adjust the value of their odds towards kick-off - odds are bigger in the mornings than the afternoons or evenings, depending on kick-off times. Place your odds in the morning and win big. In this case, don’t wait!
