In sports betting this usually happens. Sometimes I checked first the team and had quick research before having a bet. Picking odds that against the majority of high pickers for me it's like having a low chance of winning. But sometimes we need to stand our decision in having our own odds based on our research on the team that we pick. If we feel that the team we pick has a great potential to win even it has against the majority, then, go on.

But sometimes we need to stand our decision in having our own odds based on our research on the team that we pick.
I also do a quick research sometimes before placing a bet. Though I see and hear analysts say that this team will win, and even those people around me bet on such, there's something inside me that says not to bet on the majority. I don't know but maybe it's just my attitude not to go with the flow always. If we feel that the team we pick has a great potential to win even it has against the majority, then, go on.
Just follow your gut, right? Who knows, it might be the one that'll lead you to the jackpot.

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.
And I believe that a human instinct mate?that we always go against the majority or we go for the minority’s to have thrill and to help boost their ego Just like what you’ve said that don’t care if win or loose?of course we tend to in but we are also ready to lose

I once made a bad decision wayback in our local basketball
I am confident to bet in the top ranking team but since all of my friends bets in the same I decided to go against them and in the end?im the only loser in the group lol
Same happens with my best friend when the fight of Manny Pacquiao and Mayweather happens,he bet towards Pacquiao while we the rest for Mayweather and boom,he’s the only loser 😂

I usually picks the odds before the game starts and I equally bet both at the proportional profitable odds. When the game changes towards the unexpected team, that time we need to choose the other team also with odds which can equalize the profit ratio st least to avoid the heavy loss with it. Always i wish to bet on cricket and tennis games which is very much easy to predict the winning side.
Sometimes reversing positions often occur in matches, don't easily change your gambling options when you see the underdogs still dominate. it's better to stay with the big teams that dominate the match, because they can score goals at any time, and reverse the position. that's what I do when against majority If you are a wise gambler, you'll definitely choose team who can be in the top. Putting into bets into sportbetting isn't about the names of a certain player but as of a team in general cause isn't only one person could win the game but with everyone's cooperation unless it is an individual games. That research is very important as it helps us to find which one deserves our bets.

If someone is going to bet on a underdog then they are going against the majority since the favorites are expected to win

Not sure if this is counted but remember when Manny Pacquiao fought Thurman last July this year? He was the underdog and placing a bet under Manny Pacquiao would be going against the majority but this case was a bit different because if you bet on Manny Pacquiao 3 tp 4 weeks before the event, he was the underdog but a week before the fight, tables turned and he became the favorite to win the match against Thurman.

I don't believe there's any reason to hesitate when one is sure of your option. I understand it can be quite tensing and confusing knowing that majority are for one point but before you can choose to stand against the crowd, you should have been very good at analyzing and predicting a game.
The few times I stood against the crowns, it favored me because most times I see based on why is present. I analyses my games both based on past and present results and I am always very glad when it turns out positive because I stand to gain respect in the eyes of my fellow bettors and that gives me a great self-gambling confidence and additionally, I do not have a lot of people to share with me.
I think that the ability to build that confidence is where the problem really lies for most people. It is very hard to be so sure you’re of your point when it is contrary to what majority of people are in support of. I have had several times I would want to make a decision and looking at the number of people against it, I am left with no choice than to follow the crowd and to be honest, I believe majority always rules the game and one must have really reached the point of being a good expert to be able to stay alone on gambling. So my answer to the Op is this, in all honesty, I have never played against majority and I never intend to do so because I cannot stand the risk and do not have the resources to waste.

Was there ever a point then when he was the underdog? As far as i know, when the fight was still weeks away, the odds were a bit close but pacquiao was never an underdog then. People knew the disparity between the two boxers' skills and i don't think many will gamble on thurman when betting on pacquiao is sure money.

Some people overlook Manny at first because of the age gap but what it changes the situation is that Manny still has the strength and could have a chance to dominate inside the ring. But we can't deny also some underdog wins just like what it happens to Ruiz and Joshua.

Just follow your gut, right? Who knows, it might be the one that'll lead you to the jackpot. There are sometimes that the majority of having huge picks in odds will usually win the match. If you had a strong feeling that the team you had pick will good you can probably against the majority picks. There is a high percentage like sports betting is based on luck because still, this is unpredictable during the match. It is a good move if you have research first the team before having a bet and decide which better team and not only relying on the majorities choice.

There's also instances that favorites lose and if you have that knowledge it can be an advantage picking against the majorities.

Most recent one for me is Toronto Raptors. I have gambled them on every game and I lost a bit but the overall total winnings was bigger so I won more than I lost.
It was too obvious that warriors weren't on their 100% and the fact that Durant wasn't around meant that raptors actually had a shot at it, I was just not sure about what would happen when Durant returns from injury and that meant a big risk (plus Klay as well) and then both got injured and went so on the last game I was super relaxed knowing that if I lost that one, I would win the next one for sure and raptors would get it. It wasn't really "going against the majority" because many people started to think like me after couple of injuries so it wasn't majority but it was still a risky bet.

One notable bet that comes to mind is the last match up between PSG and Barcelona in the round of 16 of the UCL. After the first leg trashing by PSG almost everyone thought Barcelona we're already out and needed a miracle to make it into the next round. I went against the majority and bet on the Catalans to qualify. Which was much higher that the odds for them to win the match on the night. They left it late but won the match and the tie.

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.
I don't believe there's any reason to hesitate when one is sure of your option. I understand it can be quite tensing and confusing knowing that majority are for one point but before you can choose to stand against the crowd, you should have been very good at analyzing and predicting a game. snip This is right, it can be quite confusing when you have an opinion about the outcome about a particular game but the odds do not seem to reflect that reality, however if you have experience in sports betting then that gut feeling is a very strong signal that the odds for that particular sporting event are wrong, remember casinos are in the business of making money and even if they also disagree with the odds if people keep betting in one direction then they will modify the odds so the match becomes profitable for them and it could be an explanation for the discrepancy between your opinion and the odds the casino gives.

So your own analysis says always go against with the crowd or just bet on strong team no matter of how much odds they are having? Bookies will likely fix the match but depends on what sport we are betting.

Whenever I bet, I never actually look at the odds. I stick to my own analysis and knowledge on a certain sport. If you know a sport and the teams pretty well, whether the odds are on you or against you, you would stay on your own choice when picking which team to bet on.

You need a lot of dare to bet against the odds thinking a miracle can happen.

I must clarify that i stopped betting at the moment, that doesn't mean that my greedy sould is dead, lol. I do remember doing what you mentioned in the thread, i sometimes fell that "following the sheeps is foolish" , i had couple of times when i changed my mind and didn't follow the majority but it is usually going to be a lose because the majority of my friends are experts in analysis, lol, they would die having their phones in their hands watching live bets on Bet365 or Bwin. I did it a couple of time but the result is a loss normally but that didn't mean that i lost all the times, i sometimes smile at the bank, lmfao.
