According to a study which was reported by the American Gaming Association, also known as AGA:

• 1 in 5 basketball fans, who are adults, will place bets on the NCAA men’s basketball tournament.
• Around $10 Billion is being wagered on March Madness (inclusive of all the legal and illegal tournament pools).
• In 2019, March Madness reported a total bet of $495 million from the Nevada region only.

The first round of March Madness will kick off from 17th March and will have the championship game on 6th April. This gives you plenty of time to get your research done on the teams and become more knowledgeable for when the games take place. Now, let’s explore three of the most successful strategies that can be acknowledged to win the bets:

Handicapped betting

For this strategy to work, the match must have a clear favorite team with odds above 1.35, which loses at the end of the first two quarters. Although a team is a favorite and the chances of it winning are high, there are chances (less) of it getting reversed.

The task for you is to bet during the break between the second and the third quarter of the match. This time is referred to as the positive handicap of the original favorite. Usually, at this moment, the odds for the outcome are highest. Optimally, you can choose the odds ranging from 1.82 to 1.85.

In most cases of this betting strategy, the losing team begins to catch up, reducing the gap to the minimum. Accordingly, the stake on a positive handicap of the team holds an excellent chance to be a success.

Victorious with a strong will

For this nba betting strategy, you’ll have to place a bet on a live match (just as in most of the other strategies). You’ll have to choose a match that’s almost over or is somewhere in the middle of the fourth quarter.

The gap in the points of both teams should be as minimal as possible. That means the competition is neck to neck and fierce. The odd for winning one of them is must be 3-3.5. And now, as you must have already guessed! You’ll bet on the victory of a team.

The success of this strategy is mostly dependent on the fact that at the end of such close matches, a reliable outcome is rarely predictable. Additionally, with a minimum gap of points, the possibilities of winning are nearly equal for both teams.

However, it must be noted that this basketball betting system can bring tangible benefits only over the long run.

Be an underdog

Statistics can be a stubborn thing to go for, mostly in the games the favorites are denoted by odds 1.5-1.8, and not all quarters end with the victory of these favorites.

So, next time when you take up the challenge in winning the basketball betting system, choose a match and then bet on the victory of an underdog quarter wise. This means you’ll be beginning with your strategy from the first quarter, and if the team loses, bet in the second quarter, etc. In such cases, the odds on the outsider victory would be above 2.0 or even 2.2.

If you want to make it big, then you switch matches. For example, if your stake on one of the quarters wins, then you can change the game and similarly begin from scratch.

Use a mix of the above strategies in this March Madness and let us know if it worked for you!

Good Luck!
