Below I'm going to explain why if you are a regular sports bettor and you DON'T have a Kalshi account you're missing out on HUGE opportunities to grow your bankroll. Plus I'll give you some bets that I have made today for this weekend.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO AGREE WITH MY PICKS OR EVEN BET THEM. THIS IS EXAMPLES OF REAL BETS I HAVE MADE TO SHOW THE EXTRA VALUE BY USING KALSHI. TAIL AT YOUR OWN RISK (but these picks are going to be profitable).

KALSHI ADVANTAGE

Two main reasons I love having a Kalshi account:

1) BETTER ODDS.

-You always hear in sports betting the importance of having "multiple outs', meaning having accounts at multiple sportsbooks to be able to shop the best number. Not many people are willing (or able to) to take the time to set up new accounts and fund them at different sports books all to save 10 cents here or 10 cents there on a bet.

-But on Kalshi you can find MASSIVE edges compared to a traditional sportsbook. My theory on this is these sportsbooks have been doing this for years and tend to trend together. Every now and then you'll find one willing to take a bigger risk on a side, but mainly it's all the same. I don't think the people setting the lines AND the audience that is betting on Kalshi is as familiar with the regular sports betting market as your traditional sportsbook is and that's why we get an advantage on our bets.

2) ABILITY TO SELLOUT OF A POSITION

-Most sportsbooks don't offer the "cash out" option on bets. And if they do you usually get taxed on it heavily for what your true odds should be. On Kalshi you can determine what your target cash out number is and if the market gets there you can sell all or some of your position to guarantee a profit.

-Some may point out the fees you have to pay to deposit, withdraw, and execute a trade (bet). This is true, BUT even calculating the fees you pay the odds MAY STILL BE better than the odds you get at your book PLUS with the option to sell out at any point those fees (to me) are worth it. Imagine you pick a team to win the NCCAM basketball tournament and they reach the Final 4. Your original bet is now valued 10X what you paid. You can choose to cash out and not have to worry about the results. Yet at a sportsbook you have to sweat it out and hope you have an opportunity to hedge out to gain your profit.

SEC MEN'S BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT

BET: TEXAS A&M TO WIN

SPORTSBOOK ODDS: +1400

KALSHI ODDS: 4 CENTS (+2500) [THIS IS WHAT I BET]

As you can see the value on Kalshi is massive compared to my sportsbook. Texas A&M is a good, not great, team but is coming into the tournament off 2 wins against number 1 ranked Auburn and LSU. They get a bye in the first round and will play the winner of Texas vs Vanderbilt and will be favored in that matchup.

If they win that first match I expect to see a slight bump in their odds to win the tournament. But what I love about this is their next opponent which will be Tennessee who will be on rest after having a bye for the first two rounds of the tournament. A&M who have been playing better ball heading into this tournament will have played a game and not be rusty for the Vols. These teams split their matchups this year 1-1. Tennessee should be favored slightly in that matchup, but I would have it a coin flip game. They win that and I'm sitting with a nice bet heading into the semis and a great spot to sell some profit. No guarantees but I calculate these odds to be better value than a mechanical parlay of the two games.

THE PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP

OUTRIGHT WINNER

SCHEFFLER 14 CENTS (+714 VS +550 AT MY BOOK)

MATSUYAMA 3 CENTS (+3300 VS +3000 AT MY BOOK)

JASON DAY 2 CENTS (+5000 VS +5500 AT MY BOOK)

The reason I am willing to take worse odds with Day than my book is the ability to cash out if Day has a great early round 1 or 2. He plays this course well and I like him to place top 10 and expect him to be in the mix from the start.

There's just great value on Scheffler here and it hedges against my other two bets if he comes out and dominates like he has known to do. Afterall, he has won this tournament 2 years in a row. Does make me nervous that last week he did not putt well and only hit his irons average. But even with being a -5 on putting he still finished 11th which is impressive. Expect a bounce back here from him.

Matsuyama always plays this course well and find himself in the top 10 and top 5 regularly for this tournament. The hope is he can be at the top after round 2 and I can cash in a profit.

Love Kalshi for golf bets because you can get better odds for the most part on these golfers and if you one of them starts out HOT your bet could easily triple or more after day 1 and you can cash out that profit.
