Alright, let’s dive into this—pun intended. I’ve been messing around with betting on diving for a while now, and I’m still not sold on most bookmakers knowing what they’re doing with it. The odds I see on platforms like Bet365 or Pinnacle often feel off, like they’re just throwing numbers at the wall and seeing what sticks. Diving’s tricky—form, execution, degree of difficulty—it’s not like football where stats tell half the story. You’d think they’d figure out how to price a clean 3.5 somersault tuck versus some newbie splashing the pool, but nah, it’s a coin toss half the time.
Take last month’s FINA event. I was eyeing a few divers with solid consistency, but the lines were all over the place. One bookie had a guy at +200 who barely nails his entries, while another had the favorite at -150 despite a shaky track record on high-DD dives. It’s like they’re not even watching the same sport. Newbies jumping into this, here’s the deal: don’t just chase the shiny odds. Dig into recent comps, check who’s hitting their dives clean, and maybe even watch a stream or two. Most of these sites aren’t doing the homework for you.
Anyone got a bookie they actually trust for diving? I’m on the fence with the usual suspects and not seeing much that screams “they get it.” Prove me wrong if you can.
