How many times have you gone against majority

[Distinctin]

I did it a few times but most of the time, i’ll go with the majority because it is a little safer unlike when you bet in an underdog and risk you money. But sometimes going with majority becomes a little boring so it’s nice to go against them at time and it’s just amazing when a time will cone that you won because you go against the majority.

Going against the majority is not boring as most of the time you will win if you bet against the public.
This is the technique I use when I bet on sports, however it's not easy, you need to carefully analyze the line because sometimes, you think you go against the public, but you are wrong.

Sportsbetting is also quite the same as gambling where it has risk when you bet either with the majority or against them. It just a matter of good decision making and a bit of luck too.

Sportsbetting is not just quite the same because sports betting itself is gambling, the word betting explains why its gambling.
I think you also need to explore so you'll will experience it and better understands it.

^ Not all the time that the majority wins in sports betting, you should be careful on choosing which team and study very well their weakness compared to other opponents. Sometimes I against the majority bets and choose the team that I think they are capable to win the match. Nevertheless, technical and fundamental analyzing is a must because it is always involved risk.

Most of the time majority lose in sports betting as that is normal, when majority loses, sportsbook makes more money, and the fact that they are operating profitably, that would say I'm correct. If majority wins most of the time, we will not see a growing gambling sports betting industry now, they will all be quitting their business.

The famous line that most real gamblers know in sports is always bet against the majority as most of the time, they are wrong as oddsmakers knows how to read how typical gamblers react.

I think I have a... what do they call it... "compulsion"? with going against the majority.
When I see a lot of people doing something, even if it's something I would have chosen as well I'll do something different.

For example I'm the guy who chooses the least played class in MMORPGs, the least played role in Overwatch, the non-meta combinations in different games etc.
Even though I don't gambling-bet, I imagine I would be going for the minority there as well!

And I think this is one of the scenarios where we can say that "You can't blend in when you are born to stand out."
Plus, I think there's more thrill when you go against the flow, right? I mean, there are not so many people that will have the same feeling you're feeling. So it's kinda double the nerves.

Its not always the minority that wins, yes. But hey, its not always the majority, as well.

Before you consider sticking to your own decision or following instinct especially in sports bet, be sure to take the risk and ensure you have the money to waste at that point, because obviously those high number of predictors are always 80% accurate. It is always better to follow them and loose than to go with your judgment and lose at the same time. If you lose following your mind, you will always find yourself to blame because deep down, you know it was avoidable.

I have never gone against majority in gambling, although most majority opinion has led me to failure and I wish I obeyed my mind but thinking back to the times obedience made me win, I never regret staying with the crowd.

I think you should have known by now that gambling is a game of risk and it only takes a risk taker to stick by the game and as succeed, I don’t understand what you mean by the game could by a loss can be avoided, what is meant to happen will always happen in gambling and this has nothing to do with going with the decision made by predictors. I believe you have seen predictions by almighty predicators go wrong.

For me, I have no business with predictions made by majority, I have learnt to be self-independent and I pays me off anyway  but to those who depend on strategies, I advise you always stay with the crowd knowing that majority they say always has the vote.

I've placed a lot of bets against the public lost most of them but taking these risky bets pays off once you start hitting a few of them. Last month I had a bet where i've gone against the public and won, was from a LCK(LOL) match the team's odds were 2.75.

How about the Barcelona and osasuna match? Did it end up a draw or is yet to be played?

The match result was a draw and you can tell from the post that it won since he mentioned that taking the draw was a wise decision.

It is probably riskier to stand alone but very rewarding if you win a bet. I don't know much about how gambling works but I'd guess those betting against the majority have bigger reward than the majority
Thanks for the clarification on Barcelona and osasuna match.

Well i have done it so many times in sports betting. the highest i've won is 10/1 i didn't expectedly the team managed to won against that strong opponent of theirs. This what i like in sports betting you can rely on your team based on statistics but not all the time that team is strong based on wins and stats they can lose too since they are all humans not bots that can decide if the bet is a win or lose.

Sometimes we need to accept that we have an wrong decision during the games is ongoing and that is true human isn't a bot it's only a crowd and support the team to win but not means more supporters are getting win depends on the player determination and team effort of both team.

[Darker45]

I cannot anymore count. What I am certain of is that I've placed bets on teams with odds as high as 5 and beyond. The last time I remembered was placing a bet on FIBA World Cup 2019. I was with Italy with a 4.55 moneyline bet. The game was played against Puerto Rico. And despite the odds, I won!

Unfortunately, particularly in the world of sports predictions, the majority are often right.

No doubt the majority few times getting it wrong in the out come of a bet where the odd difference is very much, but what I was driving at is that we can also depend on our own sense of judgement in games since we the one staking if we should take responsibility for any outcome the game brings

If you never fight majority, you will never be able to learn independently in gambling. Indeed, most important thing is end result, but if you always think of victory when with many people then you will never get experience in gambling. Pro gambler has extraordinary abilities because of his experience, they have gone through various losses and ignored lure of profits from predictor for become independent.

going against the crowd in sports betting is always a mistake because from experience most times they are always right but I have actually made my decision contrary to what the majority believed. I didn’t really do that for any genuine reason anyway, that was about 3 years ago or so, can’t remember precisely, but I just wanted to be funny and I had the money to waste then. But as luck would have me, that match was in my favor and many thought I knew something I didn’t share.

I think sometimes following ones emotions in gambling can go a long way to save one from loses and stress, its one I experience I will not forget in a lifetime.

I always heard there are gamblers that have money to throw around in gambling. Never believed it until I saw this your comment, even though it still sounds weird to me, like you just wanted to waste money, waohh that is interesting. That means you are those players we hear of that play for fun. Well you were lucky that you won and can you please share your feelings when you won?

I feel not following the crowd or majority is only for gamblers that have the money to throw around or those that are willing to take risk. If you are a gambler who does not have enough money, do not follow your instinct. It is better for you to go with majority.

Sportsbetting is also quite the same as gambling where it has risk when you bet either with the majority or against them. It just a matter of good decision making and a bit of luck too.

If you like something high risk against the majority is very challenging you know, in gambling nothing is impossible. Even large teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, or even Man City could be derailed by a black horse club. especially against the majority have high odds of course trying it a few times is not a problem right?

Have done this before. Being kinda hesitant and doubting your choice but I just trust my intuition not minding what's the opinion or bet of the majority. It's a rare case to win against the majority, since the majority won't bet on someone if they don't see the potential. Maybe it's just the fate and luck that would help you win.

Sometime this kind of rollover on odds pick will be happen but that is often only. We do not need to worry about it.

There is the majority odds choice for the betting users to make their profit. To avoid such situation we may bet some funds to the other team also to make the funds stable, since it is not case the OP handled. He need set up such strategy in his games in future.

[TheCoinGrabber]

The few times I made a sports bet I just played safe and chose the expected winner. People who are more experienced with sports betting can get away with betting against the majority since they likely already developed a good gut instinct when reviewing match ups.

If you do get lucky it is indeed very rewarding since there are fewer bettors to split the prize.

Hesitance would really be there because you do know in mind that majority do knows on where to bet and if you do make oppositions then
it would really be a risky one yet you know which one is favored to win.I agree that there were really come circumstances that you will really bet into the
other side sometimes intuition do pushes you on or simply you do believe on what you do analyze on such fight or game.

If you know and realize to fight the majority it is very hard because it requires a strong mentality to do it. Imagine when you bet on a team that is really not a favorite that will at least make you nervous and continue to feel worried. But indeed, when the choice gets good results then it is a big profit to be gained. I also don't often fight the majority because playing it safe is the best if we don't have a strong mentality.

I dont even consider the crowd except that it usually pays better to go against the popular view because the better odds are given to the more unpopular of the choices.   Betting on a draw is the high risk bet though, that was lucky especially.      I decide the actual bet myself before checking to see what most others think, unless they give information you didnt have or good reasoning I dont find it too pervasive.

Betting against the majority if you just followed it blindly will not give you a success.
It also required some careful analysis, or capping of games, regardless of the games we played in sports, this method is very popular for the smart people because usually the public would pound their bet on the favorites or the heavy favorites.

Also, this type of method gives less pressure to you since you will usually get a higher odds and if you will loss, it's easy to convince yourself and if you win, you will enjoy a great return. My game is NBA basketball, I go bet with point spread and ML but when going against the public, I usually bet on the ML so like i said, I will get good return.

Many times, I do this whenever I'm in the mood and had a small amount to bet and doesn't care whether it will win or lose. I just want to feel the thrill.

So what is your percentage of winning or losing when you go against the majority ? I tried it few time but failed most of the times. The Majority of the bets are placed on the ones gamblers think will win based upon the past performances, and it is very rare the upsets happen and the less favorite team wins.
Unless you are the one who like to take the risks, it is better to stick with the decision of the majorities.
