Why do you favor betting on spesific sport?

[piebeyb]

Sports betting is not solely based on luck, unlike games in the casino like roulette and dice. Keep in mind that sports bettors are people who love sports and tend to focus only on the sports they know well.

Personally, I find it unwise to bet on sports that you're not familiar with and rely solely on luck. Not only will you not enjoy the game, but your chances of losing are also very high. It doesn't make sense to waste your money on something like that.

Usually, because people just want to make more money, sometimes people often bet on sports that they don't recognize, either the strength of the athlete or the sports team, I agree with choosing a particular sport, let alone betting on what we know, both the strength of the athlete and the team, so we don't losing money on our bets.

After all, why make extra money by choosing sports bets that we don't know and are good at, that's the same as adding risk to our bets as gamblers, don't waste money to get more money than what we don't know because that's just hoping for luck completely without do research and analysis.

I am just curious to know why people favor one Sport over another, when it comes to betting? Is there specific Sport that increase your win chance or do you bet on those Sport for other reasons?

I know most people will favor certain Sport, because they know more about the players or the teams and information is power, when it comes to betting... but some Sport are 50/50 when it comes to the outcome of the match. (One lucky punch or kick can make a underdog a champion)

One of the keys to avoiding losses in betting is to bet based on what you know and really like, I don't like cricket, so should I bet in it? of course not because that would make me blind to my bet

I love football, UFC or boxing, apart from betting on these three, I have no interest in betting on other sports

I agree with you man. It's just like we're choosing the way home from work, which we always use. We prefer what we have experienced and known before because we do not want to be faced with surprises or questions because we feel happy and safe in our comfort zone. When we place a bet, we put our money on the table. Why make a risky choice? Naturally, we make choices that we consider less risky. I think everything is based on a simple cause and effect relationship as it seems.

As a bettor in sports betting, we tend to always choose the sports we know the best because I think any bettors will definitely not want to bet on such sports or games where they do not have any personal knowledge or know how about the game nor know the characteristics of the players or fighters. I mean, how can we increase our odds to win if we're just literally guessing the outcome.

Exactly. Betting in a game that you don’t even know how it’ll be going is like a suicidal, you only bet just to lose. The reason why I keep betting on boxing and in NBA since I always watched those games and I know definitely the potentials of those players that I am actually following. Though there are undeniably some games that are purely luck based, but I mostly don’t bet games like that. I still go with games that can be win through skills more than luck knowing it will always increase my chances for winning.

I am just curious to know why people favor one Sport over another, when it comes to betting?

In my point of view, I think one of the reasons behind this is that each region has one type of sports popularity, and I think most people prefer specific sports betting because of these differences. In my case, cricket is very popular in our local area. In my case cricket is very popular and known in our local area, although football is the second most popular game after cricket, and most of the people in my area tend to bet more on these specific sports.

Is there specific Sport that increase your win chance or do you bet on those Sport for other reasons?

In my case the above reason is one of the big cause for choosing that sports for betting, Also, there are other reasons, one of which is that I understand a bit more about cricket than football or other sports, and most of the time feel more comfortable betting on cricket because of this. Moreover, there is another reason that I am not yet familiar with other sports. And yes this is another reason that a person who knows more about sports or who likes sports more will have an idea about the players and teams as well as their strengths and that helps them to gamble on that.

Why not? I'm sure there are bettors who don't know much about sports, like soccer, but cheer for their national team and bet for the company at the world championships. At least I know a few people who bet for fun. They rather see it as a kind of ritual to support the team. Sort of like how fans wear scarves and draw team flags on their faces while watching matches. And I don't think there are very few people like that.

Regardless if it's a 50/50 chance of winning or not, it's still good to stick with the sports we have known.

We are also doing gambling here, therefore, expect the unexpected like an underdog might pull a win and upset the favorites. But keep in mind that it's not always the case where upset always happened. Of course, even with the support of a well-detailed analysis, it's not that it's a sure win already.

Sports betting is already tough, why add risks to consider betting on other sports that we don't know or are familiar with?

One of the main attractions of sports betting is that with the right knowledge about a particular sport and the odds you could at least decrease the house edge the casino has over you, but that possibly disappears as soon as you decide to make a bet on a sport you know nothing about.

And while there is nothing inherently wrong with such a decision, as each person can decide in which way they may like to use their money, at the same time anyone doing this may as well just play a different gambling game, as they are refusing to take advantage of the knowledge they have accumulated as fans over the years.

As for the cheering for your own country that's already given. You can do whatever you can just to support your own people, but as far as betting goes, It will depends on whether or not your country has that enough capacity and skills to win against their competitor. I'll take it for example our Ph basketball team who almost cannot win against majority of the FIBA worldcup qualifiers, let along winning in their group bracket. I cannot risk a money line betting no matter how huge the winning profit is coz I know the chances are too low to win against a much stronger team. I  can place a bet in a different way but that's not gonna be an act of support for my country, that's just betting to win money lol.

[AicecreaME]

It's normal if people will bet in the specific sports they are knowledgeable of. Having enough knowledge on the sports gives you an edge over other bettors from winning. If you have relevant and updated information needed to predict the course of the game progression, then you have a higher probability of making a calculated prediction of the game outcome. Especially if you know the strengths and weaknesses of the team players and the team itself, it will be a less challenging analysis on your end. But of course, analyzing the situation should still be done with caution since no matter how confident and sure you are on the capabilities of your choice, sometimes fate has other plans.

Some like to bet on ball games because they know so much about it and they have fun watching it. So I guess it's really to each his own. Sometimes people also have this some sort of belief that pushes us to do something because of the charm or luck aside from being well-informed.

yes, it is true that there are people who bet on sports who really don't know much about certain sports and there are lots of people who bet just for fun on sports that are foreign to them. sometimes there is also someone who often bets on football but doesn't know anything about the NBA, but he wants to try his luck from other people's tips.
so there are still many people who bet on sports that are completely foreign to them just for the fun of trying their luck.

There are very few cases of someone placing a bet on a sport they don't like or don't know very well about the teams in a particular sport. In terms of placing bets based on favorite sports, we have studied the performance of the best teams and weak teams.
I prefer to bet on soccer because of all the sports I know, soccer is my favorite sport. At certain times I choose to watch without placing any bets, I don't want to take risks in the Big Match, where the outcome is difficult to predict.

Well, there is basically no house edge in sports betting but it's your own choices that make you win or lose, the house has zero influence on the results of a sports game. It depends on how much research you can do and how you analyse both sides and choose the best one, if your guess or prediction turns out to be right, that's great, if not, the house wins.

It's definitely better to play a gambling game than betting on a team or a sport that you have no knowledge about, it's just placing a bet on a Hi-Lo game with a 2x multiplier where there are 50-50 chances of you either winning or losing the bet.

Placing a bet on a match that you know nothing about or a sport that you've never liked or watched in your entire life is just like wasting your money or gambling them away at a hi-lo game where you have 50% chances of winning only while sports betting is supposed to give you better chances of winning since it requires experience and knowledge just a little bit of luck.

Maybe those people who like taking risks or those who have a lot of money and don't care about losing a couple of matches by placing bets on sports they don't know much about or selecting teams they don't know anything about.

It’s not just normal, it’s the norm. It’s what’s logically acceptable and is what makes sense given the premise. Yes there are a couple of people who bet on games they don’t even know the mechanics of, but at the same time there’s really no fun in not knowing how you won, so you’ll see people betting in games that they at least have surface-level knowledge of. As for sports betting, it’s less common since most players, especially when it comes to basketball and football all seem to automatically favor their home team over others, regardless if whether the team players of their home team are good or bad. Which is why there are still Cubs fans even to this day lmao.

[Slow death]

this made me remember last year, well last year when the premier league, the la liga, the serie A, the bundesliga, the portuguese league ended, there was only the brazilian league left for me to place bets, so i thought why I didn't start placing bets on other leagues, like the China League, the Japan League, the Chile League, there was also the US League, the South Korea League... on the first day I analyze the games, well they were scenarios that seemed like the mission would be very easy, because I saw a game between a strong team that was at the top playing against a team that was in the last position, the odds were excellent then, I was already excited

I saw them being easy wins, so I made a bet, rested and 2 hours later I went there to see the result of the game and my bet, and to my shock, I lost, I'm thinking at the time how it was possible. so I see another match in the china league and bet, everything was on paper for me to win the bet, the team I bet on was the top against a team from the relegation zone, everything was going well because the top team was already winning, until I'm going to rest, when I come back to see the result, I get upset, I lost again, the game ended in a draw, I lost for 2 months and when the main leagues came back I stopped betting on leagues I don't know

I guess it will be more odd if you just bet even if you don’t know the whole thing about that sport, it’s like putting yourself at its losing end even if the betting has not yet started. That’s why most of us here would only want to bet on the games that we are also familiar of, on the game that we have certain favorites that are most likely to win and manipulate the game. You know, it’s useless to bet and put your money at risk when you don’t have any idea of the game you played, you are increasing your risk of losing, even though some games like this would still end up uncertainly.

You are right, personally, as I have said before, I am quite good at making some predictions about who can win in soccer, especially in the Leagues, but in the World Cup in Qatar I cannot deny that I was very wrong because there were certain results that surprised me now if on the Contrary I go to make bets on sports that I did not practice, such as basketball or baseball, that would be how I enter a casino to gamble, because basically it would be Giving myself over to luck and I consider that in sports betting the Things are handled with Knowledge and logic, then it would be an option to lose very easily.

People bet on sports they don't know much about out of curiosity and just want to have fun, especially when their friends ask them to place bets on that sport. And after placing the bet, he just forgot about it but oddly enough, some can win from that bet. Maybe it was beginner's luck or for an unknowing person.

It's better for us to only bet on sports we know well to analyze the teams or players who will compete. That is to minimize the risk of losing in betting so that we really only place bets on our favorite sports.

It was our advantage to a sport that we support because we are already familiar with their team performance as we are following them the whole season. It is quite different and difficult to just speculate and rely on luck compared to a bet that we are really sure of ourselves that it was right (even tough the result is lose). As for me, I was preferred on basketball and I neglect to bet other sports because I know and just like what you are saying above, it just like i gamble in casino that only rely on luck.

There are many factors, for example, if the bettor prefers a big random, then he will choose women's tennis - here the odds change dramatically during the game. And by the way, the structure of the match itself implies a constant change in the odds from serve to serve. Women's tennis bets are loved by those who make live bets, and by the way, bookmakers know all this, so here their margin is higher than in football and is approximately 8% (while in football it is from 4% to 6%).
It all depends on the better and what kind of bets he likes to make.

Personally I just like some sports better than others and that is my entire reason for betting on that sport instead of some other sport, that I do not like.

I think its just that some people feel more connected to one sport than another. A football fan is not really going to care about women's basketball, no matter how good or how much better the odds are. It just does not feel right, you know?

Also I think it may make people more nervous, betting on sports to which they do not know the rules or whose players they are not familiar with.

If gambling was only about the best odds, then people would just play dice all the time.
