Title: spectator fun with betting.
Post by: JasonXG on July 12, 2016, 12:26:50 AM
People like to gamble and bet and play games. Mostly gambling is really fun because you can win money. People watch sport or esport for fun without money.

Does betting on sport make it more fun like it does with gambling.

I tend to lean towards yes.

What about you ?

Personally because of fantasy leagues and gambling it has kind of spoiled normal sports watching for me. Unless I have
some sort of skin in the game its just not that exciting to me.  Olympics I can root for USA and have skin in the game but
a normal basketball game I wouldnt watch unless having money or a fantasy player in it.

I just watch sports or e sports when I bet on the other side it makes more fun and thrilling while your watching that your money was on the line. But on the other side, when your bet is lose that's the saddest part of the game.

Oh ok so you only like some sports and the others you attracted to only if its betting or has a fantasy player in it.

I must agree with you there. Esports are great and lot more pleasable than gambling is that's for sure.

Hehe so you beg against your team ? So if your team loses you win.  :P

Gambling on sports makes it more fun to watch especially if the teams involved are teams/players I don't really care about otherwise. It's also fun to bet with friends if their favorite teams are playing against my favorite teams.

Also when I go to baseball games with a group of friends, we play Moundball: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moundball which adds a little extra gambling fun to watching a live baseball game.

Yes making bets can turn something you dont normally like into something a lot more fun. Betting with friends is always good fun since you can bet online and directly with them like in that game you sent me the link for. Thank you btw that game looks fun. Now I'm just need all my friends here at once ^^ but maybe they working now so I just wait. Have a great day !

I actually like to watch others gamble as well. I believe that is pretty fun.

It is almost as if you are thrown into the situation. However, you can only get something out of watching others gamble, and you can't lose any of your own money, which is good.

True, the gambling should be based on of pleasure and pastime. Because without it I think every game will get done defeat. Indeed gambling sports is absolutely more fun than the other, for gambling gambling sports is very real and not get the cheating, but it also depends on the person. So lucky you use gambling is good enough

Well,i have to say that i like to watch when people gamble too,but in some bitcoin dice-sites.
I know i should not enjoy this,but for some reason i like watching people losing ( or winning ) huge amount's of money.
I like it even more when i have invested some into bitcoin casino bankroll,so watching people lose actually feels like you are making profit,after
every lose they do haha :)

Yes its fun, sometimes I put small bet just watching to be more interesting. No matter if I don't have favorites, I will play something on goals. I mostly bet on soccer and we all know that we can bet on goals, or many other things and for me that makes watching much more interesting in many ways.
Sometimes I don't watch game if I didn't put some nice bet, for me its much more fun and I have favorites in each league that I like to follow with bets.

gambling is indeed extremely dangerous when we are gambling in a way that is not good or not efficient. You know that gamblers who do extreme way gambling only a small percentage (1%) that will get the victory. Self control is the way that must be done to avoid a defeat that is high enough

Gambling can add excitement to a specific event you are watching on TV but it can also drastically make you really really sad for something which is not in your control. Let me make an example for that. I bet on Formula 1 Rosberg to win without Hamilton counting in the race. I watched it on TV and was really excited that Rosberg overtook Verstappen as if he can't then he doesn't deserve the Mercedes car. Yet the stewards thought just because he got a little hint from the team to not use the 7th gear, they penalized him and I lost my bet. This is an example when gambling can make you very sad as although you win , there are other people who can ruin it for you.

i prefer just watch the sport on television without make any bet because i do not have much money to do. better watch sport like football with cold drinking and eat some snack. nothing to lose for me if one of the player is not win.

but i think for myself, maybe its fun to make betting on sport if once again if i have more money, just for first time with small amount  ;D who knows i can win  ;D

I'm on your side it adds a little fun when theres money on the line and doesn't hurt betting on your favorite team as long as you can afford to lose the amount. Others will say no because there could be a match fixing involve.

Well in think if you bet the same amount each time like 0.01btc then u just need more wins than loses to be in profit. I'm less worries about match fixing as I am about dodgy casinos that may cheat.

I'm not very interested in sports (playing or watching), but every year I go to a Super Bowl party to watch the game.  I mainly go for the food and friends, but if I have placed a bet on the game it makes watching a lot more fun!  If it wasn't for gambling, sports in general would be pretty boring to me.  So yes, I would say gambling on sports makes a world of different in entertainment value.

Lmao I'm also like that. Really not into sports. To me sports is football and rugy and baseball I dont really consider esports and motorsports in the same league. If not for betting it would be increadably boring.
