It is truly enjoyable to be an avid sports fan. Being one gives you something to look forward to like the games you can watch after going home from school or after a long day from work. It is a fantastic way to relax, take away the stress we get from our daily activities and have fun. Rooting for your favorite team and player gives you a good sense of excitement every time they’re up for a game. Of course, there is a more heightened sense of excitement and fun in playing fantasy sports betting. It is just like betting on real sports and the difference is you can bet on your own fantasy team that you own or bet on other teams to win. This gives you more control on who will win, which eventually gets you hooked.One of the popular sports that attract millions of sports fans across the globe is American football. This is considered one, if not THE most popular sports in the US. Famous football players started their journey to reach their dreams when they were still young. They trained and practiced until they are fit to qualify and face the physical, mental and emotional demands of this highly competitive sport.Because we are not blessed with the all the necessary skills and the superior physique needed to play the game, many are happy to just be in the sidelines to watch the game, participate in sports betting, join fantasy leagues or do a combination of both—fantasy sports betting. This endeavor, however, requires serious talent and keen analytical thinking to become successful.The first thing you have to do is familiarize yourself thoroughly with the game and how it works. Know and understand the rules, terms and game jargons both commonly and rarely used. When that has been done, learn the rules of its variations. It could be a bit difficult to decide and strategize at first, but constant practice and participation would give you the hang of it.So when you need assistance in your Super Bowl spread, fantasy football players, and many other concerns, the Internet is a goldmine. It is a good source of information when it comes to football betting and fantasy contests.Take your love of football a notch higher by taking part in fantasy sports betting. Enjoy and take pleasure in it while learning new and exciting things about the world of football! See you and your fantasy team online, and let’s start betting on which team will win.

There are many hardcore sports devotees who are good with sports facts and their numbers aching to try out fantasy betting. After all, with a nice grasp on sports statistics and handicapping it should be easy to win, right? Oddsmakers set betting lines based on what the uninformed betting public knows. How hard can it be to pick winners better than the betting public?Sadly, getting a positive outcome in sports betting is not that easy. All it takes is one person who is a lot better informed than you do and you’re up for a difficult climb. Not only is the best handicapper likely to be betting the maximum amount allowable at any sportsbook they frequent, but differences in the odds from one sportsbook to another are quickly eliminated as line shoppers arbitrage away any significant differences.If you are an expert in sports analysis and want to earn a profit from this knowledge, is there an easy way to do this? Yes, there is, and this new legal form that just came out recently has started to create a buzz in the sorts betting world. A good number of daily fantasy betting sites have emerged, and they all share a number of advantages over traditional sports betting.Here are a few things about fantasy betting to help you get started.• Fantasy betting is legal. It has been specifically excluded from laws that prohibit sports betting, making it entirely legal.• Transactions can be done through credit cards or via PayPal, and money is easily withdrawn via check. There are no hassles and uncertainties when doing money transactions from gambling sites.• Because the games are based on the performance of individual players, a larger variety of games are available.However, don’t get the wrong idea because these are not like your traditional fantasy games. Rather than having your money tied up for a full season, most of these games last just for one day. You pick a team for the day, and results are based on the performance of your players that same day. The games can range from heads up (two players) up to 100 players or more. The sites that host the contests have the look, feel, and the business model of online poker sites.Here are some features that set apart the different fantasy betting sites.• A wide range of user interfaces.• Salary cap format games. Some sites also offer live draft games where player selection follows a traditional fantasy sports draft.• Different rake values, from as high as 20% to less than 10%.• A variety of sports available. Most sites offer baseball, football, and basketball. Some also offer hockey and NASCAR racing.• Chat features that give some fantasy betting sites more of a communal feel than others.

If you have ever purchased a sports betting ticket, you will understand why pro football has got to be the most fiendish invention ever created. It doesn’t matter if you are up-to-date with all the stats or if you receive the most valuable tips, because there is a very fine line between winning and losing, and you are never guaranteed a win even if it is a sure thing to happen.A good example is last season’s NFL wildcard weekend between the defending champions New Orleans Saints versus the horrid Seattle Seahawks (8-9). If you asked anybody that time, they all agreed it was a sure thing, and statistics show that the Seahawks are the first team to come into the playoffs with a record below .500.So if the fabled “sure thing” in sports existed, this definitely had to be it.However, Seattle scored a late fourth quarter touchdown, putting them up by 11 points. This effectively ruined the bet, and essentially destroyed the mythical “sure thing” in sports gambling.This is the lure of sports betting. When you come close to winning, you get sucked into the black hole of betting the week after. Betting on football each week can’t be called an addiction, but it may be habit-forming. That’s why I decided to stop wasting my money away on gambling and start putting money into fantasy betting!Fantasy betting on football involves some of the same principles as traditional sports gambling. Instead of placing your bets on which teams will win each week, you draft a team of players you expect will perform well. You get to select the players you want in your lineup and those in your bench. You then match your fictional team against someone else’s lineup on a weekly basis throughout the entire football season.If your players do well, you should win games, amass a respectable win-loss record, make the playoffs and earn your payoff by taking the league championship. If you make a huge mistake in your lineup one week, it’s not going to cost you any money in the short term. I am not saying you won’t get screwed over in fantasy betting by the unpredictable nature of sports—because you will—but at least when it happens you’ve got some very specific targets to vent your frustrations on: the players who failed you and the opponent who beat you.Fantasy football can be played for free because you’re not required to put any money down to join an online league. However, when your money does become involved, think of it as a long term investment—made over the course of an entire season—requiring you to make weekly “micro-gambles” on the stats players will put up every week.
