Betting On Horse Racing – The Mindset Of The Betting Pro

In this final article in my series on judi bola online On Horse Racing I examine the importance of adopting the mindset of the betting pro. What is that mindset and how do we adopt it? The winning mentality or mindset of the Betting Pro is one of the hardest things to adopt day in and day out, but it is critical if you are to achieve any level of success and, more importantly, make a consistent income from your betting on horse racing.

I truly believe that this is the one thing that sets the top 1% of elite betting pro’s apart from the rest of the “punter” and “gamblers” who aspire to make money from betting on horses. The fact is that you can teach people the skills required to be successful at betting, how to set up their betting bank, how to set their stakes, how to read form and make selections. All this can be learnt.

However, each one of us naturally has different levels of risk we are willing to take, a different level of loss we are comfortable with, different levels of patience and of course discipline to stick to our rules. We are all naturally different in our character and this makes up what I call our “mindset”.

We can all learn the same skills but each of us will apply them slightly differently. I know this from personal experience with my members and subscribers. I can teach 30 people the same fundamental skills and even supply them all with the same selections and yet each one will come back with different results. So how do we change our mindset? The first thing we must do is look at what characteristics the Betting Pro has as his mindset.

Decisive – I think the first thing I always notice about the Bettors who are successful, is how decisive they are, they make decisions and stick to them, whereas the average punter is unsure about things and constantly flitting from one system to the next.

Patient – They are also very patient and realise that they make profits month by month and season by season – not necessarily day by day or race by race. Most punters are quite the opposite, always trying to push things and chase their losses if they have a losing bet – they have a very short term approach.
