The key to winning at MMA betting is to find a betting strategy that is based on a combination of factors. These include the fight’s over/under totals, grouping of rounds, and methods of victory. These bets can be used on a wide range of events. While it can be challenging to predict over/under totals, there are opportunities in every major MMA event.
Grouped round betting
Grouped round betting in MMA is a popular type of betting on the sport. These types of bets are much less expensive than betting on individual rounds. You can place bets on whether a fighter will win a single round or the entire fight. You can even wager on which fighter will last the longest.
The first step to winning at grouping round betting is to be familiar with the rules of the sport. For instance, in MMA, rounds are five minutes long. A fight with a fight length of three minutes is considered to be halfway through the round. On the other hand, women’s rounds are typically two minutes long. If the fight goes beyond the set amount of time, the bet is graded as No Action.
Method-of-victory bets
One of the easiest bets to place on MMA fights is a method of victory bet. This is a simple wager that involves picking the type of fight that will end in a knockout, submission, or a decision by a judge. Different sportsbooks will have different odds for each type of method of victory. You can also choose which fighter will win and place a bet on who will be the first to be KOed in a fight.
Method-of-victory bets are similar to bets on the outcome of a boxing match. You must predict correctly the way the fight will end, like a knockout or a submission. The bets will be paid out if either fighter submits the other.
Over/Under totals
In MMA betting, the Over/Under total is a popular way to bet on a match. These totals are set by oddsmakers and are calculated by considering how long the bout is expected to last. Most UFC fights are three rounds, but the main event can go up to five rounds. Each round lasts about five minutes, so the number of rounds is important.
Over/Under totals in MMA betting are similar to those used in football. They are determined by a number of factors, including the number of rounds. If the fight lasts three rounds, the Over/Under total is 1.5. If it lasts five rounds, the Over/Under total is 3.5.
MMA betting odds
Betting odds for MMA matches can be tricky to decipher. Unlike traditional sports betting, they are based on implied probabilities. The oddsmakers determine these probabilities by creating an Over/Under line. The total number of rounds in a fight is also calculated. The MMA betting odds for each fighter’s fight are then multiplied by a percentage called the vig.
