Contra in sports betting
| What’s more the gist of this notion is very simple but most of the players do not use the obvious game method of multiplying monetary funds. Let’s think of a situation in which we guessed 4 out of 5 circumstances in the combo coupon and we have the final match left. Often this match closes | our coupon and unfortunately loses. As players say, Sod's law is the main culprit in such cases. This can be avoided with the help of contra which we use when bet on the opposite match result than earlier. The main aim of contra is to get income regardless of the last match’s outcome. |
How to choose bets for contra?to top
A very important factor of a good contra is personal selection of a bet. Using the word “personal” we mean such a bet, thanks to which we get income regardless of the match result. We can think of such a situation as in the example:
|
For the coupon closure only one occasion is left – the match Arsenal – Stoke City. On the coupon we put options that the London club wins by two goals (handicap). If we feel that we are not confident in the outcome of the match or want to use contra considering income we should bet on the opposite outcome of the match: Arsenal – Stoke City (+1.5) for (-2) the odds 1.95 (Arsenal won’t lose by two goals). Then we calculate the bet. To get an optimal income we divide the amount of the winning from the first coupon 1365 £ by the odds put by the bookmaker on Arsenal – Stoke City (+1.5) -2 in our case 1.95. 1365:1.95=700 £. |

In contra we can play up to the amount of a potential win from the first coupon then the difference between the win on the two coupons (1365) and the sum of put stakes on the first and second coupons (100+700 pounds respectively) gives us net profit regardless of the match result. Arsenal – Stoke City (+1.5) 2 |
We paid 100+700= 800£ for the coupons in total, won 1365£. Our net profit equals 1365-800=565£. Easy, isn’t it? |
