Sports betting is currently one of the most popular online activities in Denmark. That’s why it’s safe to say that the majority of online punters are already aware of various betting strategies and know how to use them to their advantage. But people who are just entering the online betting scene usually find themselves confused with so many options.

That’s precisely what leaves most of them wondering which type of bets they should place. Luckily, many reputable sportsbooks offer detailed picks against the spread which help new bettors make decisions more easily. So, aside from learning how to read picks, odds and predictions, here are just some other things you need to keep in mind if you’re only entering the world of sports betting.

Make sure you understand the sport
The first and arguably the most important thing you need to do is learn as much as you can about the sport you’re betting on. Betting on a sport you know nothing about is not only unwise but it can turn out to be simply boring. One of the biggest appeals of sports betting is having fun watching the match you placed the bet on in the first place. Besides, the more you know about the sport you’re betting on, the easier it will be to understand different types of bets and determine which ones you should go with.

Do plenty of research
Additionally, do know that the more prior research you do, the more chances of success you can expect to have. In sports betting, it’s really important to research and learn how various teams or players have performed in the past, so you can get a general idea of what you can expect from them in the future. But it’s also worth mentioning that, sometimes, no matter how well you do your research and no matter what the statistics is showing, things may still end up taking a surprising term. So, don’t end up feeling discouraged if your bet fails through, even though you’ve done your research.

Don’t get carried away
In the end, sports betting is super fun and it can be really easy to get carried away. The thrill of the game and the overall excitement may leave you wanting to place even more bets than you originally did. But betting on high emotions is not really the best way to approach this activity. So, make sure you think your bets through and try to keep your head cool as much as possible. Good luck!

A survey carried out by Megafon for TV2 has found that 71 percent of parents have handed over children to daycare in spite of them being sick.

Moreover, 21 percent of those surveyed admitted to medicating their kids with paracetamol, such as Panodil, before sending them to school.

The FOLA parents’ organisation is shocked by the findings.

“I think it is absolutely crazy. It simply cannot be that a child goes to school sick and plays with lots of other children. Then we are faced with the fact that they will infect the whole institution,” said FOLA chair Signe Nielsen.

Pill pushers
At the Børnehuset daycare institution in Silkeborg a meeting was called where parents were implored not to bring their sick children to school.

At Børnehuset there are fears that parents prefer to pack their kids off with a pill without informing teachers.

“We occasionally have children who that they have had a pill for breakfast,” said headteacher Susanne Bødker. “You might think that it is a Panodil more than a vitamin pill, if it is a child who has just been sick, for example.”

Parents sick and tired
Parents, when confronted, often cite pressure at work as a reason for not being able to stay at home with their children.

Many declare that they simply cannot take another day off, as they are afraid of being fired.

Allan Randrup Thomsen, a professor of virology at KU, has heavily criticised the parents’ actions, describing the current situation as a “vicious circle”.

“It promotes the spread of viruses, and it adds momentum to a cycle where parents are pressured by high levels of sick-leave. If they then choose to send the children to daycare while they are still recovering, they keep the epidemic going in daycares, and this in turn puts a greater burden on the parents.”
