On the whole, your average weekend sports fan is never going to make a living from betting on sports. Firstly, they don't take betting all that seriously, as it's just a fun part of the whole sporting experience. Then there's the fact that they make the mistake of assuming their sporting knowledge is going to help them win bets. To a degree, sporting knowledge is essential. But equally important is a deep understanding of the betting formats, odds and strategies. Without these, you can't win.

Emotional sports betting is a surefire means of seeing your bank roll go down to a big fat zero. Leave your emotions at the door and only bet with a level head.
