Is Gor Mahia at her best form?
The first 2016 Mashemeji derby must have signaled a highly unpredictable Kenya’s 1st Sportpesa Premier
League season. On March 5, league titleholders Gor Mahia FC humbly accepted a
one nil defeat, courtesy of their friendly long-time rival, the AFC Leopards.
Gor Mahia’s thrashing at the Safaricom stadium in
Nairobi is a strong indicator that the team is still in a celebratory mood after securing a lucrative Sportpesa sponsorship deal. Judging from the outcome of their most
recent matches and as the season gains momentum, critical football analysts and
ardent fans would agree with the observation that Gor Mahia FC is currently not
at her best form.
Unpredictable 2016
season for Gor Mahia Fans
The fact that Gor Mahia is not at her best is
most likely going to translate the 2016
season to a very unpredictable one for the Gor Mahia fans. It will be more
complicated for those who have accepted sports betting as part of their
contribution to the development of both local and international sports. Gor
Mahia fans will have to think smart before placing a bet on their team or even
including it in a multiple bet.
Gor Mahia fans should not allow their worries
to sink their betting optimism, because there exist ways that they could invest
in to increase their chances of placing successful bets. In a previous post, I
suggested a double chance bet as a way
of increasing one’s chances for a successful bet. I stand to be corrected, but
I have no doubt in my mind that the few who considered my suggestion to place
their bets for the AFC Vs Gor Mahia game had a good field day in the betting
arena over the weekend.
A double chance bet which had anticipated a home or an
away win for this game was much better. This theory is not in any way ignorant to the fact
that AFC fans did not celebrate their win for placing a one way bet in favor
of their team, and to the fact that you are entitled to your choices.
Double Chance bets for
rewarding wins
Although not always, double chance bets can be
promising than one-way bets especially for teams that are somehow tricky to
predict. A person who prays that his/her team wins as he/she hopes for the
opposing team to emerge victorious makes more sense than one who dies hard with
his/her expectation that the team he backs will always win.
My previous post mentioned Elitebetkenya as one
of the available betting companies in Kenya which have an option for placing
double chance bets. There are other ways that you can consider to use for
double chance bets. These options can easily sound suitable only for persons
who hardly take hard-line positions, but never mind because there is nothing to lose in winning but
a lot to lose in unsuccessful bets.
Double winning chances
I can only say that there are no major reasons
why one should not try their luck in using two or several betting companies to
increase their chances of winning. A person who cares about earning more from
their bets and utilizing the opportunity presented by betting companies to make
a profit must be able to see the advantage/s of including double chance bets in
his or her betting strategy.
Unless advised otherwise by rules governing
sports betting, this is how to go about it; I would suggest that open two
accounts for your sports betting business. If say for example you have an
account with Soprtpesa, consider opening an additional account or accounts with
Elitebetkenya or sportsbet.
Sportsbet is international but it is verysimple to open an account with them as it is to open one with betting companies
in your locality. Start placing your double chance bets once your extra account
opened. I am sure with time you will notice the difference. Instead of going
for one way bets some people as you will soon be doing, take advantage of the
availability of the two accounts to place a double chance bet.
If Arsenal is playing at home against a
visiting team in a match that is likely to go either way, one of the best
strategies would be to use one account to place a bet in favour of the home
team and the other account for the away team. It is advisable to go for teams whose odds are placed at above the sum
of the amount you are investing for your bets in the two separate accounts.
If in your bet for Arsenal you have
placed a KES 100 ($1) in one of your accounts and KES 100 ($1) in the other
account for the away team, ensure that your possible win is at least over KES 200
or $ 2.0. A win either way will secure the amount you had place for your bet.
An amount above KES 200 or $ 2.0 is an earning for you. The desire for higher
stakes in betting is tempting; do your calculations wisely before placing a bet
to guard against avoidable losses.
One more example; On 10/03/2016 Chelsea will
host PSG in a UEFA Champions league match. Sportsbet has $2.70 possible win for
a Chelsea win and $2.70 for a PSG win. A
person who considers a double chance bet in this match will most likely be well
placed to secure a win if the match ends up in a win for either of the team.
Companies have different odds; use your diligence to settle for the best figure
for you.
The frequent questions I have been receiving
offline from friends who wish to open a dollar account with Sportsbet are; How
to open an account with betting companies such as Sportsbet, and How to deposit
money with the company. In my next post I will respond to these questions.
