Basketball tips for a quarter or a half-time

When it comes to betting on basketball games, most of you associate it with guessing the final result of the match. And while many people probably are really good in making such basketball predictions, predictions for the quarter or half-time outcome should not be ignored for an opportunity for profit. The odds for a quarter and a half give you some additional options for earnings:

• Although not all bookmakers offer bets for each quarter separately, there is always a chance to bet on the first quarter and a half-time (including the first and the second halves). If the match is included in the so-called live score betting section, then your options are limitless. Read carefully the rules of the bookmaker to make sure whether the added time is included in the last quarter and the second half (usually it is not). Here are some interesting features, which are not available in the full game bets:

• Cover losses – when you watch the basketball game live stream, you can see if the things are going badly for the team, which you have decided to bet on. Then you can play against them, so you will cover the majority of losses. Of course, there is always the possibility to lose that bet;

• Additional profit – after you are satisfied that everything is going well for you or in other words that the team on which you bet, fully controls the situation, you can afford playing with more money for the next part or directly for the final outcome;

• Use NBA trends – usually the team that loses at the half-time with a big difference becomes much more motivated and wins the third quarter. Another interesting fact is that almost never one team is a winner of all four parts of the game. However keep in mind that your bookie is also aware of those tendencies and will update the odds accordingly to them;

• Use specific gaming moments – let us assume that the team star has played quite aggressively and accumulated three or four fouls before half-time. So you can also assume that he will make even more fouls and will be limited to the playing time in the second part of the game. So keep those factors in mind when you make your basketball tips.

Sometimes, of course, it's all a matter of fortune when it comes to winning bets. You can find many different tips at BestPaidTips.com
