Are you a lone Sports Bettor or a Team Sports Bettor?

[alastantiger]

A lone sports bettor, in my opinion, is someone who does not rely on another person to interpret the odds and advise them which sporting event to wager on. Before placing a bet, the lone gambler conducts his own study and analysis.
 
In contrast, a team sports bettor, in my opinion, is a member of a betting community or group on Telegram, Facebook, or Twitter that is led by a self-described expert in sports betting. He or she chooses the game on which to make their wager after conducting the necessary research and analysis on their behalf.

It seems to me that a single player has a better chance of winning relying on his experience and knowledge than those gambling players who are guided by opinions on forums or in communities where one way or another you follow the majority opinion, which does not always turn out to be true.

all of the above? sometimes Love bettor and sometimes team bettor ?

I mean sometimes in games that I fully understand ? i use my own interpretation of Odds , and not even seeking for contribution where and when to bet .


But in other time that I am interesting to bet but does not have a complete understanding of the game? then I visit some groups or ask some friends if whos team/player is best to be part of.

Then, I am a lone sports bettor. I don't rely on others opinion, I do my own research and analysis before making bets though it's not that a regular thing for me. Do lone sports bettor be a team sports bettor too? What's your take on this?

[Wexnident]

Does a discussion with a group of friends count as a team? Nothing fancy about the discussion, just a group of friends talking about their favorite teams as well as their past histories/matches. Most of my sports bets are usually decided after a small discussion like that (since it's much more fun imo), I wouldn't say that they don't influence me, that'd be absolutely bs, but I'd also say that they've never swayed me 100%, I still decide on the bets usually on my own. They're just a source of info so to speak.

[piebeyb]

I prefer to be a single bettor because I prefer to analyze sports matches myself rather than following analysis from certain groups or forums to follow the bet, I think everyone's goals are different, how they want to bet on each match, sometimes some rely on groups or teams while being a bettor single is better because of the risk because of yourself and not blaming others

[dothebeats]

I sometimes tail people here in the forum, or use their analysis and judgment in creating my own. I am also fond of checking reddit every now and then for sports betting tips and some online predictions hub to learn more info that I may have missed in getting my picks. I don't follow blindly, and obviously don't fall into herd mentality, but I do use what I gained from them in order to make my own path. You can say that I'm a mix of both, though with a much more leaning towards being a lone sports bettor.

I think it counts if it leads to you locking bets because you and your mates have discussed the sport. But if it's just a simple discussion then it's just another get together or just one of those conversations that you may have with your friends.

I'm not familiar with team sports bettor because I will assume that anyone who gambled on sports betting rely on his own set of analysis of the game and so he bet on it with his proper knowledge and experience.

And on the second definition it seems to me that you are following a so called experts that give tips on every sports game. I don't see something wrong with it though, it's better if you will do your own analysis and if you follow the sports that you have been betting then for me you are most likely the experts, more that this so called tipster.

[traderethereum]

I am a lone sports bettor and have never tried to play sports betting with friends or other people because it concerns sharing money.
Maybe it will look fun as you analyze the match together and come up with a conclusion to choose the team you choose.
But if you don't have a close relationship, later, it can trigger fights between you, so I prefer to bet alone and not rely on others.
By betting on sports betting a lone, I am responsible with my money and do not follow or use anyone else's analysis.

[Pierre 2]

I feel like team sports betters are more common nowadays because there are many people asking for tips around internet. Especially in telegram, discord and Instagram groups people look for tiny opportunity to do good. For example people tend to not watch lower leagues so team bettors may inform you and help you get better. As individual betting personal I think it can be good to become team.

I think that the best thing to do is to trust yourself for betting events that you are sure that maybe this result will happen.It is different when you are not sure about what to bet,in this case it is advisable to check many sources like those Telegram channels where some self proclaimed experts give you their analysis on why they think that this outcome for that event is most likely to happen.

Even in such events when you are not sure after consulting these information from these tipsters pages in the end trust no one but your inner self,even if you lose your bet you won't have any regrets.

[Plaguedeath]

I'm in lone sport bettor because I don't believe what anyone is saying and if I lose the match, I didn't regret since it's my own choice. I don't see any reason why should someone make a bet from someone opinion, because they're not an expert and just same like us, a speculator. It would be different if the person is a fighter, so we're know his background and how serious he's to prepare before the fight will happen.

[len01]

single betting is one of the right choices and has a higher chance of winning. because of the confidence that has been carried out through self-analysis and independent research without relying on other people or any expert experts.
because for me the predictions of sports betting experts are not necessarily correct and sometimes our own predictions are more accurate.
one example is when we want to bet on a sports match, we just follow from social media predictions, that is clearly very different from our own predictions. because we see the match directly when it takes place and we can find out which chances will win.
when compared to experts on social media, they usually only predict using theory without proper analysis.

and I myself would rather single bet than follow other people's predictions which are not necessarily right.

I guess I would be categorized as a lone sport better.
I think it's better to bet by ones own analysis than to depend on others to do the work for you.
Again being a lone better means you'll be able to make some decisions that others would have neglected but since you're the one calling the shots you can do whatever please you. These are just some of the benefits of being a lone sport better.

[Maslate]

I am a lone sports bettor as I don't need anyone to help me choose the team or the fighter that I will put my bet on.

I trust myself but I need some information that I can use to compute the stats. There are gamblers who relied on tipster, me, I don't trust it because it does not help us grow in case we choose to go this path and try to make a living in sports betting.

[bitbollo]

I don't like these "big groups" full of people that are wasting time posting such useless prediction...
I can have some hints by reading suggestions from some reputable experts about a sport, I can take information everywhere...personally I prefer basic stats... At the end the final decision or "the interpretation" on a bet is only on my own! I will never delegate to anyone this choice

[Yatsan]

Well I am really into both lone and team sports betting but I am most of the time enjoying team sports such as with NBA Leauge. But I do also bet with boxing and UFC fights. I enjoy them both to be honest but I just play the same sports as with NBA so maybe that is why. When it comes on winning bets in sportsbetting, I guess it is harder to predict a winning bet on lone sports such as with UFC and boxing because anything could happen in an instant. There are no underdogs and such 'coz fighter perform differently on every match. Unlike with team sports wherein most of the time (not always) dominant teams are constant with winning over other teams which makes it, I guess, easier to win on.

I also detested group forecast and analysis because of contradicting and divergent views among the group members which often lead to non conclusion and taking a  final decision, I decided to be a lone sport bettor specifically in soccer bet that is my area of specialisation, whatever bet I picked is at my own risk and I only consult other source for more analysis if the need be, I have earning some profits as a lone bettor though I had some bad days too however I well satisfied with decision of betting alone without any external interference.

You can be on both you can do your own analysis and at the same time be part of a telegram group, but in the end, since you are the only one betting, and it's your money and it's your enjoyment, you should decide what you should bet, but it should be based on good logic and analysis, a good analysis should not be bias so the bettor can come out with a good result that is profitable to him.

[Yogee]

What if I am not a member of any betting group but I still use some information provided by some individuals? That's obviously not my "own study and analysis" so does it still count as a lone bettor?

We also have some threads in here like the NBA betting and sometimes I follow other shared bets. That doesn't necessarily make them my leader so does that count as team bettor too?
