Gotta say, your take on diving comps is sparking some serious thoughts! The way you’re breaking down those 3-meter patterns is spot-on—reverse and inward dives are where the magic happens when divers nail the execution. I’ve been digging into Asian bookmakers lately, and their markets for diving are wild. They often offer tighter odds on qualifiers and even prop bets on things like degree of difficulty or specific dive scores, which can be a goldmine if you’ve done the homework.
I’m with you on keeping it responsible—single bets on consistent divers are my go-to as well. But I’ve been experimenting with Asian handicap-style bets on diving events. Some books adjust the “spread” based on expected scores, so you can bet on an underdog to outperform their projected total without needing them to win outright. It’s a nice way to back those dark horses you mentioned without going all-in. For the upcoming events, I’m keeping an eye on a couple of Chinese divers who’ve been quietly racking up high-difficulty scores in regional comps. They’re not getting much buzz yet, but the data’s hinting at a breakout.
What’s your take on live betting for diving? I’ve noticed some Asian platforms let you wager mid-event, like after the first couple of dives. It’s tempting when you see a diver wobble early, but I’m still figuring out if the odds shift fast enough to make it worth it. Anyway, love the combo bet spice you’re throwing in—might steal that for my next ticket! Who’re your underdog picks? I’m curious to see if our radars are pinging the same names.
