Bet365 Bet Builder Tips

If this is your first time using a Bet Builder, then fear not! Read on for our Bet365 Bet Builder tips.

Do Your Research

As with any bet, you should always do your research before placing a Bet Builder bet. Research the teams' or players' current and past performances, the history between the two, and any current news regarding injuries or disruption between manager and teams/players. All of these things will have an impact on the outcome of the event, so take time to gain as much information as you can.

Be Selective

When considering the different markets that can potentially make up your Bet Builder bet, be selective. While there are often a vast range of options available, be sure to choose those that have the most realistic chances of happening, in order to improve the chances of success for your wager.

Check Odds

The Bet Builder will always display the odds for each selection, but take time to check that they are good value, before adding them to your Bet Builder. This might mean visiting other bookmakers to compare and contrast the odds on offer, before you commit to adding a selection to your Bet Builder.

Budget

As with all gambling, it is important to set yourself a budget for your Bet Builders, and stick to it. Gambling is more fun when you gamble responsibly.
