TIPS FOR BETTING IN KENYA, BEGINNERS

How do these winners do it? What's the secret? Is there a science (or the art) behind success in betting?
First of all, as previously mentioned, it can take some time to master the skill of making money on betting. If you're a beginner, don't be in a rush. As easy and simple as sports betting looks, you aren't likely to get things right at the start. If you do it the wrong way, you won't enjoy sports betting and you won't make money.Take your time to learn.
Here are the top tips for beginners
1. Understand as much as you can about the sport that you're betting on
An experienced player will tell you that it isn't just about how many wins the team has had during their last six or eight games. Rather, it's about how well they've been playing offensively or defensively. Have there been fights internally? Has the coach been replaced? Is the team good at home or away?
These details will help you place a good bet and predict an outcome that is as accurate as possible.
2. The one that's favorite doesn't always win
An unwritten rule that is worth considering. It however can be difficult to ignore because of the odds given.
A good example is was when Leicester City won the Premier League during the 2015/16 season. The odds of them doing it were 5000 / 1 and the favorites were Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Spurs.
Leicester City did it against all odds and yes, a lot of Kenyans made good money betting on Leicester's games, especially when they played at home during that season. The odds weren't always in their favor until towards the end of the season. They did so simply because of how Leicester was playing.
3. Don't bet emotionally. Don't bet with your heart
You love your team. You want them to win. It makes sense that they should. They are up against strong opposition but then you are convinced that because you love them, they must win. You go ahead and put a huge amount of money on them to win. Then they lose. You are depressed or even angry at yourself.
This has been the scenario of many Kenyans who didn't take their time to do their homework. Avoid betting with your heart. Use your head. You've got the Internet so have no excuse about searching for as much information as possible about the teams playing. It's all out there and it's free. Basically yours for the taking.
If you can master this, then you'll be careful and purposeful about your betting. This also includes tricky fixtures such as derby games where people tend to place bets passionately without having a wholesome look at the possible outcomes.
4. Bet with what you can afford to lose
Betting should be fun. Don't make it a matter of life and death. It's not a good idea to play with your rent or your children's school fees or other people's money. That's another sign of someone who hasn't done their homework.
Once you've sorted your expenses and aligned your budget, then you can have some fun and place your bet. This also ensures that you won't be chasing your losses.
It will also automatically answer the question, "how much should I bet?"

5. Keep good records of how you're betting
Do you want to experience betting success, long term? Then it should be wise for you to keep records of your betting.
Track the bets you're making - the odds, the result and any comments you could want to add on that particular bet.
If you keep records of your bets, it will make you more disciplined and less random. It will also assist you in keeping track of your betting profits and losses and you'll be wiser. Each result will increase your discipline in betting.
6. Think long-term and give yourself time
We're deliberately mentioning this again because it sits right up there with Oxygen when it comes to betting. Time works magic
The temptation to get rich quick is strong and people tend to think it's a real possibility. It simply doesn't happen.
Think long term. Start small and build up as you slowly increase the amount you bet on each game. Soon you'll find you're making some good money on the side and perhaps, if you persist long enough, you could hit the jackpot or make a living out of betting at the very least. A few Kenyans are doing so but they are very careful about it.
Bottom line, be responsible about your betting. Avoid trying to 'make things interesting' as that ends up being a losing strategy. With betting, you'll sometimes have good days and sometimes you'll have bad days. However, if you follow these tips, you should be able to find the best bets that give you value for your money and make a profit more often than not.

SENIOR KENYAN POLICE OFFICER DITCHES WIFE FOR "CLANDE'

a policewoman confronted her husband, the twice-married area OCS, over an affair with a freshly recruited cop.
Victor Oduor, who has been the Embakasi OCS for six years, has allegedly been in a relationship with a fresh recruit, Elizabeth Rimba. His wife, Irene Matangala, also a police officer based in Embakasi, caused a scene as fellow officers watched from a distance.
Irene accuses Oduor of transferring her to Mukuru so that he could have time with his new squeeze.
Irene burst into Oduor’s office and beat up Elizabeth, the kurutu, who managed to bolt to safety. Irene then turned her wrath on her hubby who has since denied that Irene is his wife. Oduor says they only had a fling which ended last year.
“She was not in uniform, but had been hiding, waiting for the new recruit to come in before accosting her. She got her chance when she saw the recruit walk into Oduor’s office where she kicked the door open and started a fight,” said a police source within the station.
“We couldn’t get into the fight because we know they had a relationship and we all felt they should sort out their issues as adults,” added the police officer who witnessed the daytime drama.
Irene says she met Oduor in 2012 when she was a fresh recruit from Kiganjo. “We came to Embakasi and he looked very troubled. I came to learn that he had been having problems with his wife and was always unhappy. Fellow officers asked me to take care of him and that’s how I became his girlfriend and eventually his wife,” narrated Irene. She says they have been living together on and off, as Oduor still occasionally goes back to his first wife.
“We had a baby and life has been good. He was paying rent and other expenses until he got a new girlfriend in April. He then suddenly turned his back on us and stopped paying rent and caring about us. I am very bitter with him,” laments Irene.
She even insists that Oduor transferred her to Mukuru so that he could get some quality time with his
mpango wa kando.
Oduor told The Nairobian that he had an affair with Irene, but she has never been his wife. “When you work closely with someone, you can sometimes fall in love. We are all human, it happened to me and we had a baby. I later came to realise she isn’t a straightforward woman and I decided to end the relationship. She threatened me that she will go to the media with our story, but unlike her, I don’t want to go into details and expose to the public what she did to me and the reason why I ended the relationship. Being a single man, I eventually found love again, but she has refused to let go.”
The OCS says he has been catering for his daughter and even supports Irene’s child from an earlier marriage.
“There is so much going on between us, and only a few friends know how I have suffered. I am a man. All I know is that I am doing the best I can to take care of the child I had with Irene,” said Oduor.

JOYCE AKINYI CHARGED FOR DRUG TRAFFICKING

Controversial businesswoman Joyce Akinyi was
on Monday charged afresh at the Kibera law
courts with trafficking narcotic drugs.
The prosecution amended a charge sheet in a
case she pleaded not guilty last year to include a
count of possession of narcotic drugs.
She was charged that on March 25 last year at
Dam Two estate in Langata Nairobi, jointly with
John Alex, Rush Auma and Kelvin Odour, they
were found in possession of heroin valued at
Sh4.2 million.
In another count, she is accused together with
John Alex of trafficking heroin at her Deep West
Resort in Langata, Nairobi on March 25 last year.
According to the charge sheet, the alleged
narcotic drug had a value of Sh94,000.
Court documents indicate that she was found
with a substance that preliminary tests
established was heroin.
In a separate count on the same charge sheet,
John Alex Otieno, Risper Auma and Kelvin Oduor
were charged with trafficking 1833.6 grams of
cocaine valued at Sh4.6 million.
The three were allegedly found at a house in
Dam estate, Langata, with sachets containing the
proscribed drug on March 25 moments after Ms
Akinyi was arrested at Deep West Resort.
Ms Akinyi is out on Sh500,000 bond. The case is
set to proceed before Kibera principal magistrate
Benard Ochoi Monday.

GOOGLE ADDS IT WEIGHT IN HELPING NAIROBI TRAFFIC

Executives said at a media briefing in Nairobi on Thursday that the application dubbed "Traffic Alerts" will be hosted on Google Maps and will be available on smart phones.
Charles Muritu, Kenyan Country Manager for Google said the innovative mobile application will provide real time traffic alerts to motorists and commuters in Nairobi.
"Any individual with a smart phone will be able to download Google maps and install the Traffic Alerts application. It will alert private motorists, drivers of public service vehicles and commuters on traffic flows in different parts of Nairobi," said Muritu.
He clarified the mobile app is user friendly and will complement ongoing efforts by Nairobi county government and key stakeholders to tackle traffic gridlock.
"Our goal is to harness the power of technology to help address an endemic challenge in the city of Nairobi. The next step is to raise awareness on the benefits of Traffic Alerts to the public," Muritu said.
He decried unethical behavior by motorists and lax regulations that are to blame for traffic snarl ups in Nairobi.
"By using Traffic Alerts to access information on vehicular flow in Nairobi's roads and highways, we will be able to save time, reduce stress, gas consumption and pollution," said Muritu.
He said a partnership with key stakeholders like telecommunication giants will help raise awareness on the Traffic Alerts mobile app to the public. Google has developed a range of products to promote sanity in Kenyan roads.
