Despite being relatively unknown among Brazilians, betting on the results of the Brasileirão can turn out to be a good source of extra income, or even livelihood. In the Brazilian Gaming Congress, which took place in 2013, experts estimated that the total volume of money handled by the game amounted to R$ 400 million (US$ 105.5m) per year.
Football betting on foreign sites is not illegal
The Brazilian likes placing bets, it is enough to observe the long queues that form in the lottery stores in the days previous to the draws of popular Mega-Sena to confirm this. Now, when it comes to sports betting, people tend to be more reluctant: since Brazilian legal documents reserve the organization of bets on federal lotteries, there are those who fear that they are committing a crime.
There is, however, a significant legal loophole in this field. For a game to be considered illegal, it must be done in Brazil. And, when someone bets on a foreign site, the transaction is processed in the country where the page is hosted. Therefore, the act is not punishable.
This makes these sites the choice of betting lovers who do not want to be in conflict with the law. One of the great advantages offered by casino sites and betting for beginners is the offer of bonuses. Most of them offer additional credits that allow the player to place more bets without having to spend too much.
Football betting: an investment like any other
Regardless of the way used to gamble and legal issues on the topic, anyone who chooses to enter the game universe should see it as a leisure and, others, also as an investment. This is the advice that experts usually give to beginners.
So the only way to succeed is to be guided by reason, never by emotion. It is essential to analyze the history of each team, player and match, and check other variables that may intervene in the result (clubs with back pay or players with personal problems, for example). Armed with this information, the bettor is much more likely to hit - and thus profit.
In addition, cautious cash management is required. The ideal is to strike a balance: invest part of the returns in more bets and save the rest. So do not get carried away by tides of luck and keep your feet on the ground to be a successful bettor
Gamblers live not only on results
In a football match, there is no shortage of guesses about who wins and who loses, the amount of goals of each team, who will score them and more. For those who are already accustomed to this, the good news is that it is possible to turn all of them into possibilities of financial gain.
This is because, contrary to what many people think, football betting sites allows to invest in much more than in the outcome of a match. There are even combined bets, in which the bettor predicts results of several games. If, on the one hand, the risk is higher (if one of the results does not materialize, the bet is lost), the possibility of financial profits is also, since the return is calculated based on the odds (possibilities) of all the items in question.
Some teams are the most wanted by bettors
Another advice that veteran gamblers always give novices in football betting is to never bet on the heart team. After all, when he wins or loses, it is very easy to get carried away by emotion, and consequently make bad decisions about the cashier.
The good news is that there are still a few lucrative options. Betting site surveys reveal that Corinthians, Vasco, Atlético Mineiro, Criciúma and São Paulo are the favorites of those who invest in football.
Despite this, it is recommended that, in the case of beginners, they start investing in games less targeted by the market, such as the series B and C of Brasileirão. As much as the potential for financial returns is not as great as in the classics, they are an excellent choice for practicing and gaining confidence before setting out for the hottest games.
At the time of betting everybody wants to win. So the tip is to listen to the advice of the most experienced, prepare well and follow good practices.
