How to Become a Successful Capper and Win at a Distance?

Pros in sports betting, handicappers (cappers) are players who recommend betting forecasts. They themselves may not put in the bookmakers, avoiding the pressure of potential financial losses, and their main goal is the positive statistics of forecasts.

Accurate forecast is not a guarantee of success

Probably, a newcomer to the betting sooner or later the question arises: “Why did I, who so often guessed the results of football matches before I began to make bets, lose the game again and again in the bookmaker’s shop?” The answer is: the ability to predict the outcome of sports events is not a guarantee of success in bookmakers. Psychology and financial management are becoming important aspects — the ability to control emotions under pressure, to play according to a clear system, without chaotic bets.

If you really noticed that you are able to make accurate forecasts, but you do not know how to manage emotions and the bank — there is an option to try yourself as a professional forecaster or capper.

Most customers of bookmakers do not really want financial gain, but recognition of their expertise in the field of sports by other players, and everyone who earns his accurate predictions will take off his hat in front of a successful capper.

How to become a capper?

How to become a capper? The first and most important point is to learn how to make accurate predictions.

We recommend choosing a narrow niche where you feel yourself an expert — a sport, or even a championship where you are better oriented. Next — try to give predictions for a certain period of time (for example, a month) for yourself, testing your own knowledge and skills. If there are more accurate predictions than losing ones, try yourself as a capper. Otherwise, you risk being ridiculed by the public.

In itself, the fact that the forecaster makes accurate forecasts more often than inaccurate ones does not mean anything — you can win three times in a row by a factor of 1.2, fail one forecast and, as a result, remain in the red. Therefore, the capper is obliged to calculate the total balance of bets over the entire time that he is engaged in forecasting. When he shows a stable “plus” over a long distance, he will be listened to.

The ideal option is to take a virtual bank of 1000 conventional units and set a limit for yourself — allocate 5% of the bank for one rate. This strategy of sports betting is called flat and is ideal for demonstrating your skills with a handicaper.

Platform for forecasts: a blog or a website of forecasters?

To read you, and the forecasts noticed — you need a platform for the publication of forecasts. There are several options and solutions — use special resources for professional forecasts or create a blog and start its promotion.

Both options have advantages and disadvantages, and it is difficult to name one of them as ideal and only true.

Specialized resources already have readers ready to estimate forecasts, but the owner of this site, and not you, will mainly earn money from your work. The option is good for the initial promotion of a proper name and a set of authority, or if the goal is to get into the team of privateers of some well-known bookmaker information resource. Then you really can’t bother searching readers — if you are successful, they will come to you.

Creating your own blog is a matter of five minutes, and its promotion in social networks takes place gradually and depends primarily on luck in the forecasts.

The core of regular readers will grow in proportion to good forecasts, even without advertising, and if you are in the long run in the black, this “capital” will bring revenue from advertising or selling forecasts.

Bookmakers want to pay successful forecasters

Surprised, but bookmakers are ready to cooperate with cappers — people who give tools to beat them. They are interested in the audience of readers of forecasts, in which 99% of people are potential clients of BS.

Cooperation can take place in the framework of an affiliate program or exclusive offers. It will not be difficult for the predictor to switch to the odds of the recommended bookmaker in his predictions at the right time. In parallel, the capper can offer an exclusive bonus from the bookmaker, with which it cooperates with its regular readers.

On paper, everything looks beautiful — create your blog, learn to make accurate predictions and monetize your own popularity.

But in fact, it turns out that everything is not so simple and the main problem is to stay in the plus rating for a long period of time.

Only really talented forecasters are able to maintain their rating for months, or even years — most of them sooner or later get into the staff of stellar cappers of well-known information resources from the world of sports betting, but 95-98% of forecasters are marginalized with all rate statistics disappointing.

Beware of scams!

Now we have talked about an honest way to earn on our own knowledge and authority, but there are also a lot of other options that are used by numerous scammers who pretend to be successful mappers. The most common way is to fake a successful betting history, pay for positive feedback from people who win on the predictions of such a “Nostradamus” or create them yourself and continue to catch naive people with this “bait”.

We categorically do not recommend keeping to offers where the phrases “promotion of bills”, “match-fixing”, “paid subscription” are used, because in 99% of cases this is pure fraud. Trust can only professional forecasters on reputable resources and those whom you know personally or follow forecasts for a long time.

If you see that a person is trying to embellish their own results — this is not a professional capper, but a professional crook. Alas, it is much easier to earn money by deceiving people in this area than by selling your own knowledge, so there is nothing surprising in the fact that the world of professional forecasters is teeming with easy money lovers who pretend to be professionals.

We offer a number of useful x counsel s that will help you become a successful capper and build a career as a professional player.

Value Betting

Do you know how to look for an edge over the line? If the answer is no, you better betting. Often you can hear from the players “This team will definitely win”, “They will lose 100%.” Yes, if the favorite is involved, then you can expect a victory from him, but the forecast without taking into account the odds in many respects resembles the purchase of goods that you liked, at an unreasonably high price.

In short, Value Betting is an oddity over the line, a situation in which the estimated probability of an event is higher than the probability in a line of bookmakers. A professional bettor only bets when he sees such an advantage. This simple concept is often ignored, but those lucky ones who follow this principle win.

Basics of Mathematics

With a professional approach, event bets are a game of numbers and self-discipline. Understanding of sport, though important, is not to such an extent. Many players bet on emotions, trusting intuitions. But to succeed in the long term, you need to have strong mathematical knowledge.

Formation of the betting line

The formation of the bookmaker line largely depends on how popular the event is, and is not relevant for tar-markets (unpopular events). However, in most cases, the odds are a reflection of the expectations of the public in a particular event, and not the actual chances of the opponents.

Of course, everything is somewhat more complicated, but bookmakers give a line for two purposes: either to balance the flow of money to generate income at the expense of the margin for any event resulting, or to attract players’ money to a “non-profitable” result. Since public expectations and reality often have nothing in common with each other, it is possible to find an advantage in very popular matches on the lines based on where most players bet.

“Forget the past”

Sometimes everything that prevents a player from becoming a professional is in his emotional desire to win. This desire leads to the risk of large sums of money, rash rates. However, a player’s great winning streak can relax, and he will begin to overestimate his abilities and take a lot of reckless risks. Therefore, regardless of what the results of previous bets are, you cannot move away from financial management and the game scheme. It’s almost impossible to stay in the black, if your goal is to get bright emotions.

Immediate and Big Win

You can’t strive to win a large amount of money immediately. This is an overbetting, when a single-bet player puts too much of a pot, and bets on expresses that have high odds. The concept of “professional betting” does not imply a jackpot breakdown, but daily hard work.

Long-term perspectives

Betting and winning the lottery are two completely different things. Every day, the player needs to work on himself and his discipline, to understand new sports subtleties and concepts, to work out the betting system. After all, if you won today, this does not mean that it will be so tomorrow — betting is extremely dynamic. Every professional player goes a long way.

Decent game bank

If you do not have enough gambling bank (the amount of money for betting), then you can’t avoid ruin. Professional players and experts advise to bet up to 2% on the bet from the game bank. A newcomer, whose gambling bank is 10 thousand dollars, is unlikely to bet on the rate of $200, because this is unlikely to win much. As a result, unnecessary risk in most cases leads to the loss and disappearance of the existing bank.

Therefore, it is much better to grow with a small bank and a slow pace. If you are sure that your game is positive, try to find money for the bank from other financial sources. Capper is a professional in sports betting, i.e. in making profit with the help of bets on the results of sporting events.
