Club loyalty or winning bet?

[lienfaye]

I am also a fan of a club that I love, but I would prefer to win a $500 bet than to see them win the UCL. My loyalty doesn't supersede my quest for gambling wins. What's your view?

We have different perspective regarding this and it's not surprising if someone is willing to lose the bet just to show support to their chosen club. But is worth it? If they win will they even recognize you as their fan? Well, it's better to be wise than to act as a fool. Because if that's your stance, then placing bet is unnecessary since you can support them by just watching their game. In gambling, aside from entertaining yourself, money is more important than loyalty, therefore I will go for the club with the high chance to win.

Nothing is more important in gambling than to see your bet winning, even if means betting against your club. We need to know that gambling promotes sportsmanship, so whatever you think will give you higher probability to win, then go for it, not sticking to the club just to show your loyalty. Otherwise, if they will call out your attention because you are betting on the opposite one, which I guess they don’t even care doing, they don’t promote being sports when it comes to betting decisions of an individual. Loyalty these days could be underrated, but we can’t do nothing about it because for us, money is more important as much as gambling is concern.

well for fan recognition there's a way that is been handled but there I'm not sure if there's any monetary reward and that alone gives me the better reason to think that its not worth loosing your funds that you wanted to use for something else and the gamble to loose because there are certain losses that you can foresee even before you think of placing a bet so it will be better to make adjustments than trying to be a fanatics.

I agree with the second friend who pointed out that the first one was being stupid for wanting to lose a bet that’s up to $500 just because he’s a fan of the team playing.

We don't know, maybe he was only playing as a way of showing a support to his favourite team? I think this can also be considered as playing for fun even though the outcome of our bet is a loss. Lastly, maybe the guy was filthy rich and he don't care at all losing an amount like that.

There are games which after analyzing I discovered that there’s a slight chance of my prediction being correct

This is the good thing about sports betting because our analysis can matter a lot, however if we are only playing for fun or to show our warm support to our favourite teams, then I think it's obvious that there is no need to do an analysis because if we do, we might get tempted to bet on the other team if we found out that they have a better chances of winning.

I also have a favorite club. And I think I am a loyal fan. But winning a bet and betting on your favorite club are two different things. I also prefer to win $ 500 than "hope" my favorite club will win even though facing a tough opponent. I will be realistic for every bet. I think we can show our loyalty in a better way. I like to collect my favorite club's jersey every season. I also try to follow every match. I know the history of the club and know the club's legend. Loyalty is not in your bet, but in your knowledge of your favorite club.

It's true, we should know that our favorite club is make their money and we have to make ours, so any of the game which we know that they won't win, we should avoid to play them but we should endeavor to watch the game. If I bet a multiple bet and include my favorite cloud and the rest of the games I played did absolutely well but only my favorite club spoiled the whole thing I will definitely dislike them for a while because they spoiled the whole games. So for me to avoid those kind of scenarios I prefer not to bet on my favorite club anytime my instincts tells me that they won't win the game.

That is a way better way to show your support to your favorite team than betting on their favor, after all whether you win your bet or not, the club will not get anything out of it, however by buying some of their products you are directly supporting your favorite team, so those that claim that in order to show your support you have to bet on favor of your favorite team are way off base, since if you think about it there is no relationship between those two factors at all.

When it comes to gambling then of course the hope is to win, this is no longer about choosing the team you love, but about choosing a team that basically has a chance of winning. After all, even if you love a club but at certain times you play against a team that you can be sure of winning, then at least you can still provide support by watching the match. But after all, at least you can know about betting yourself and no one else knows your choices and so, I think it's still fine if this is done.

But indeed, maybe if you feel that this is not true or refers to an act of defection, then you can avoid betting at moments like that. After all, supporting your favorite team can also be done in many ways and not always by betting. But of course, when you still want to place a bet, you have to accept the risk, whether it's choosing your favorite team but has the possibility of losing, or betting by choosing the opposing team because it has a good chance of winning, that's a choice and you're free to choose with risk that you are ready to bear.

Some people take this fan support too seriously, to the extent that you will think that they are being paid for the support that they are giving to the club. They can go to any length just to prove that they support a particular team, even if it takes for them to place a bet against their own kind of odds.
 
Even if the game ends up losing, they will not still accept defeat and will claim that it's all gambling and the result is not sure, when from the very beginning they were sure that the game wouldn't end in favour of their own club.

Sports betting is a very passionate type of gambling. This is because some gamblers are supporters of a team or contestant before even placing bets on them. Some fans are so passionate about a club that they can risk betting on them even when they know that they lack the quality to win the game. They don't care if they win because they want to show their loyalty or support for their favorite clubs or teams.

A few days ago, two friends who were gamblers were discussing, and one of them said that he would be willing to lose a bet that would make him cash out $500 so that the club he supports could win the UEFA Champions League this season. The other one, who is also a fan of the same club, said his friend was stupid. He said he prefers to win the bet and doesn't care if the club wins the Champions League. The other diehard fan told him that he was not loyal to the club and was not worthy to be a fan.

Well, I personally see it as being absolutely stupid when I see some gamblers place bets on their favorite football club and are willing to lose the money they used to place the bet, that is, they bet on their favorite football club even when they know that their opponent have a better chance of winning the match, people honestly will never cease to amaze me.

I am a die hard fan of Arsenal, but my fanship for this football club does not extend to where money is, after all, the club is not paying me to be their fan, why should I willingly lose my hard earned money for their sake? This is something I would never try, I will always prefer I win my bet than I lose and my favorite club win the title of that season, it's stupid to prefer anything otherwise.

What sort of stupidity is this? How can you gamble away your funds on a team and, the major criteria for that was just about being your favourite team?? Are you - in anyway paying it directly to the club that so you love, or the casinos? Who's benefiting at the end?...

The other diehard fan told him that he was not loyal to the club and was not worthy to be a fan.

It's also not entirely strange that people can do crazy things for the something they're passionate about. What's gonna be more crazier than a man on a 165 stories - a skyscraper!!!! I'm definitely going to to acrophobic afterwards and someone, out of passion crimbs to such a height?.. that's how crazy a soccer fan could be atimes.
