If
you are a normal recreational punter, Smartgambler
advises against gambling. The odds are stacked against
you. Occasional recreation for affordable stakes is
fine, but gambling must be recognised as a losing
proposition unless you are prepared to research your
chosen area or get information from experts.
Australians are gambling away somewhere in the vicinity
of $20 billion per year, with massive poker machine
losses leading the way. This is far too much! Gambling
losses in Australia have risen much faster than inflation
over the past decade, so we are betting more as the
avenues for gambling increase. Clearly though, we
are not betting smarter!
If
you do want to punt, Smartgambler will show you how
to bet to win.
Smartgambler provides information that can improve
your rate of return in your gaming pastime of choice
or convince you to switch to a better value form of
gaming. We provide mathematical comparisons of the
different types of gambling with statistics, information
and advice from our experts to help you do better.
Smartgambler features news, articles, useful gambling
tools, special new account bonuses for punters and
lively discussion on our popular gambling
forums. Browse the menu, top left, to find
the sections of most interest to you.
Smartgambler
betting philosophy
This
was nicely summed up by one of our first clients.
'Personally
I adopt a gambling philosophy similar to that supported
by blackjack expert Arnold Snyder. He calls it the
Zen of Blackjack and it basically states that winning
or losing is not important, in fact it's completely
irrelevant. All that matters is making perfect bets
and playing perfect hands, time after time after time.
Alternatively you could use the train of thought popular
in sales, where they work the numbers and consider
that every call is making them money, whether they
get rejected or not. They know that over time, they'll
earn x dollars per call, therefore every phone call
is worth x dollars. Similarly, every positive expectation
bet you make is earning you money, win or lose.'
