That’s how you win. I haven’t been betting this year but in the past I did well if I just picked games I thought were pretty much sure things.

I did bad when I would try to string together a parlay or make a ton of smaller bets with big payoffs.

From what I’ve read and witnessed, larger bets on individual games is the way to go and how most professional gamblers that ac to actually make money do it.
