Binary Betting

[MaxShalamar]

Can you get better value on an event that has only two possible results rather than the old home, away, draw options? Can you make a profit by just backing in these markets (odd/even goals, baseball/basketball moneyline etc) where you can get odds of between 1.85 and 1.91 Surely backing an even chance at 1.85 is a lot easier than backing a home win at 1.85 (50% easier?) I know that backing an even chance at 1.85 is not really value for money but could it work with the right staking plan? Not talking Martingale her but something more complex

Re: Binary Betting You'll be backing more winners than if you bet on the 1X2 markets that's for sure, therefore your variance will be smaller. I'm not really sure about the 'value' part of your question. I don't think the market matters when determining where you will find value. If you have 10% edge in a market it doesn't matter what the market is, or the price you're getting it on, it's still 10% value. But as I mentioned earlier, if the variance is smaller in a handicap market, then yes that should be your choice.
