Bookmakers biography

I do not consider myself a gambling and watching sports programs on television is not fond of. Therefore, with bookmakers, it had never intersected before. In order not to get lost in this world, excitement took the accompanying person - friends introduced me to him. The accompanying person introduced himself to Zhenya Friends call him Jackson. Eugene says about himself that once he went to the simplest office, where the bets begin with 20 rubles.

I just went in for the sake of interest and won. Then he looked again and won again. As a result, you lose much more than you win. Soon after the first visit to the bookmakers, Eugene threw a permanent job and lived for some time at the expense of the wins. So far, it does not work out. Zhenya brings to the meeting another expert in excitement - Gennady. Gena -Broker, or otherwise - a correspondent of one of the Rostov bookmakers.

Which one, he does not say. But not the one that we outlined to visit. The Gennady-Broker must monitor one or another event and report on the phone by telephone-after all, the bets are taken in all details of the event. If we are talking about football, then you can put it on the first goal, which team will score it, on the last, at the time of the first goal, on the expense, on whether there will be a penalty.

And so on. Total - 13 points. The gene does not work every day, but according to the schedule, depending on what sporting events they offer him to comment and how often. Eugene and Gennady are friends. Both are tall, about the same age - about thirty years, they have almost the same voices and manner of speaking. Dressed in sporting and constantly smoke. They always have a topic for conversations.

Such players are not worried about whether he will win or lose, it is enough for him to just enjoy the game. It is these customers who are striving to get bookmakers. I am interested in: - Do I need to be a fan of sports? Eugene explains: - It’s just that a fan is not necessary. Many lose precisely because of their emotions. The office that we head to is located in the CGB area, hiding between the eatery with hot dogs and stalls.

Eugene says that our office is considered one of the most decent in Rostov. Two men are sitting on the steps of the office, smoking thoughtfully. How are you? We go into the room. The situation resembles an operating room of a bank, a management company or passport table: the same windows with tired girls, a small queue, tables, behind which visitors tensely fill some sheets.

Unlike the bank, instead of pensioners - middle -aged men and older. Half of them are Caucasians, they are more exciting natives. There are no women here. Another difference from banks is television screens on the walls. Some offices have a bar. You can bet and, sitting at the table and drinking something alcohol-containing, watch the television screen. In the office where we came, there is no bar.

For my interlocutors, his presence does not play any role. Bar - for lovers to sit. Eugene and Gennady of those who, having made a bet, usually leave. I look at the screen. The score is conducted by Del Potro. Many cannot understand that they are not playing the office, but of other players who were less successful. How to bet. Eugene takes at the window, behind which girls are sitting, a thick pack of papers, each sheet of which is solid tables with forecasts.

We sit at the far table. What players do not put on! Here is the European football championship, and the Russian football championship among women, as well as local championships of Italy, Spain, Argentina, Australia, Iceland, there is still basketball. I would never have thought that someone in Rostov would be interested in the outcome of the basketball tournament in the distant Puerto Rico.

In the table, I found regular baseball championships in the USA, Rugby, Australian football, women's volleyball, handball, tennis tournaments in Paris. I look at them as something outlandish, lost in numbers. The lines, as they explain to me, are essentially collections of coefficients. Match of the European Championship Poland - Greece. In case Poland wins, a coefficient of 1 is provided, if Greece is 2, if no one is clogged - 7.

This means that if you put rubles and guessed to the victory of Poland, then you will receive a ruble. Zhenya writes out an event number on a sheet of paper, a team that, in his opinion, should win, and the coefficient. He puts it on everything: on basketball, and tennis, and football. It turns out that in football the most popular is the outcome - for the victory of a particular team or a draw.

The coefficients - they are installed by analysts of the bookmaker - usually reflect the opinion of the majority: the higher the probability of the event, the lower the coefficient. However, analysts may not understand, for example, in Japanese volleyball.

You have a chance to delve into Japanese volleyball and beat the bookmakers. Combined bets on the outcome of several independent events are called express. In this case, the coefficients of events change, and at a small bet you can make good money. But it will not be crazy money.Insurance allows you to put on the opposite outcome of the event, if you are not sure of the initial rate.

I do not understand sports to put on some basketball or football championship. On the last pages of the lines, finally, I find Eurovision. These lines are not so horrified. And besides, at least I will know who I put on. They exist only to attract new customers. And what are the forecasts? Who is promised to win? Eugene tries to explain: - Well, take the semifinals of Eurovision.

You can put on semi -finalists, on finalists, you can make forecasts like which country will perform better - Sweden or Norway. If you put a thousand rubles to Sweden and guess, you will get if you put our “grandmothers” rubles to the victory of our “grandmothers”, and they will win, then you will receive but they will hardly become winners, I think. I put on the victory of the "Buranovsky grandmothers." I write on a piece of paper an event number - “”, then I write “Russia”, “yes”, “rubles”.

Then I go to the cashier, give her a piece of paper with information, I get a check in return. Suddenly, Eugene also shows knowledge in the field of Eurovision: - In the first semifinals of the office, they put an inflated coefficient on the musician who played for Hungary. They decided that he was unlikely to go to the finals. And the guy performed well and passed. How not to remain deceived.

We go out into the street. People are sitting on the steps again, but already different. Eugene explains that all visitors can be divided into two categories. There are those who carefully analyze the strategies and control their every step, and there are those who are in a state of nervous breakdown, lose, but still continues to put in the hope of recouping.

In other words, fools. When you worry, you are nervous, the team loses. This is a law.
