    I’m curious about how bookmakers make consistent profits. Is it mostly through the margin they add to odds, or are there other ways they ensure they always come out ahead?

    Bookmakers earn money primarily by setting odds in a way that ensures they have an edge, often called the "margin" or "vig." This margin means that over time, the bookmaker will make a profit regardless of the outcome. They balance the bets on each side so they can pay winners with the losing bets while keeping the margin. Also, with apps like the 1xbet nigeria app, it's easier for bookmakers to reach more users and manage bets efficiently, which helps maintain their profitability.
