As a Gambler and a Die-Hard Fan of a Club Would you Bet Against your Club

[maydna]

I think it will depend on our fanaticism for the club because if we want to use the moment to our advantage, we will probably bet against your club, especially if our club's opponents are better than ours. It would be a loss if we chose our club when the opponent was stronger.

But some people will stay loyal and not bet against them. And some just watch the game and don't gamble because they don't want to see that loss. I don't know about people, but if it were me, I would rather not bet and not watch it because it hurts to see our club lose.

If you're an avid fan you'd more likely go with a do-or-die but if you are just into gambling and winning, you'd be biased with the other team if they have the bigger chance to win. It all depenxs to the gambler's mindset.

Neither are wrong to do so. Not all gamblers are just seeking for profit and some are just supporting their biased teams regarless of the outcome. On my end, whenever I am not assure of the odds of winning, I tend to just watch and avoid betting. Indeed profit is important but being a fan is another thing. Atleast entertainment will be fulfilled but if you are interested to gamble, then selecting a team would be fine to do so even if it contrasts with your initial expectations.

As a gambler and a die-hard fan of a club that has been having a terrible season, would you bet against your club, knowing that their loss would be your financial gain? Or would you stay loyal and not bet against them?

I am not a very fanatical, but I watch some matches of my favorite team with a beer for pleasure. Naturally, I also have an idea about the current situation of the team. If the team I'm supporting is performing bad and I stumble upon a really good odds opportunity, it's often the case that I bet on the opposing team's odds of winning. Considering that I do not support this team fanatically, it is not very sad for me to lose that match in situations like these, because I earn snacks and beer money for the next match. In summary, if my favorite team is performing bad and has a potentially losing match, I don't hesitate to bet on the opposing team's victory. Also, if the team I support loses this match, I'm not too upset.

...would you bet against your club, knowing that their loss would be your financial gain? Or would you stay loyal and not bet against them?

I typically place my bets based on the odds rather than my personal preference for a certain team. After all, gambling is a separate realm from fandom. However, there are occasions where I do bet on my favorite team even if the odds are not in their favor. This is because having a deeper understanding of my favorite team can pay off in the end. The more I know about my favorite team, the better chance I have of predicting their success. The odds of winning are better when you bet on the underdog. And if you are a fan of your favorite team, then it makes sense to root for them even if they do not have the best chance of winning.

It is true that we are always passionate about our clubs and always want them to win but gambling is all about the money. We play gambling for fun but nobody wants to lose his bet also. There is no way I will keep betting on a team that is underperforming and is likely to make me lose my stake. In the case of Chelsea, I will never be driven by club loyalty when placing my bets because the club is out of shape and needs help. But it is usually more interesting to bet on your club that is doing well and willing is always exciting.

Yeah I think I always put my bet in my favorite team or fighter even though the chance to beat the other team or fighter is low, but it doesn't matter because I will not regret when my favorite team or fighter is lose. Why we need to bet against our favorite team or fighter? I would be very sad and regret in the same time. But if my favorite team or fighter is almost has no chance to beat it's opponent, I would skip it.

I guess you will not continue betting on a team like Chelsea, who has become a cheap team to every team in the English Premier League. It will mean that you will keep wasting your money. It is better to endure their losses alone than to combine them with the loss of your money.

In my case, here in my country we do not have a very successful national selection on football. So it would be likely they would lose against any other team of world fame, like Argentina, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, etc..

I would rather not to bet against my own team, I would skip the match or I would bet on my teams favor, but with a modest amount of money, so in case of them losing, it would not hurt my pocket very much. Here in Venezuela, we can be quite proud of our team when it manages to give small victories to us from time to time. 

[demonica]

I'm not really a die hard type of fan so I just bet on whoever I think will win the game. I bet for the purpose of winning and not by whom I like. But if I'm in a situation where I'm a die hard fan of a club and it seems that they are not performing well against the opponent, I'd either won't bet or will still bet for my favorite club. Cause a die hard fan is different from a casual fan so it would be hard on you to vote for someone against your favorite. I'd probably have a hard time with my emotions whether I'll be happy that I won the bet or sad for my favorite team losing.

Would betting that they would lose count as not against your club? You know like putting money on your favorite club plus some handicap? I do that sometimes and I personally have no guilt whatsoever if I win even though they lost hehe.

I have nothing against those extremely loyal fans but they should probably stay out of gambling when their team sucks. They can still support the team by buying tickets or team apparels.

[ryzaadit]

Odds and activity should be the reason.

Unless, I have a good odds and want to do stupid things or YOLO. Even my team underdogs, we are still gonna to bet anyway but most of "Sportbet" user are quite being neutral for the topic of  betting.

That's why, they have more advantage rather than casino player.

Same with me. As a sign of respect to my favorite team. I’d rather skip betting than bet against them since it’s really painful to watch the game while wishing your favorite team lose just to win your bet.

There’s a lot of available matches that we can bet. We can always skip on bets that we don’t like rather than keep betting even on the match that we are uncomfortable due to our favorite team is the underdog. I rarely play on sportsbook but if our national team will play against strong team, I will just watch the game without any bet placed to enjoy and support at the same time.

There are two options, one is putting the money first and betting against them if the money and the odds is something good, that is if you do not care much for your club. It will be foolish to bet on your team to win, when you clearly know they are doing badly. The next option is to just completely avoiding any game that your team is playing if you love them too much and feel like you will be betraying your loyalty to them betting against them, no need to bet, so you do not have to make a choice. You can bet on other teams and still make your money.

[dothebeats]

My support has its limits - I may support a particular club or team but if it might cause me to lose money in the long run then I might as well just watch on the sidelines and not bet at all. You can still support your club/team by not betting on them and just be there when they have games or buy their merch. But if you really want to make money and you know that your club is really up to no good when it comes to the match-up, you can be a degen and make money off of it. The question is, can your conscience do it? I guess not.

[Frankolala]

Yes of course, my club isn't giving me anything in return,I just like their football pattern and enjoy watching my club football doesn't mean that if my club is in a poor form I will still foolishly stake for them to win a game that I know is impossible for them to win at that moment.

Gambling is fun but no gambler will love to stake on a game that he is very sure that he will not win. I don't become biased or sentimental when it comes to football. Some persons can go to any length to defend their club even in their poor form. This reminds me of a friend that is a Chelsea, this season that Chelsea is weak in their games,he also brag that Chelsea will win their matches. Yesterday,when Chelsea was losing 2-0 to Manchester united,he almost bet with someone that Chelsea will equalise the two goals. If not for me that discouraged him,he wanted to bet with that person on his conclusion.

We are fans of different football clubs, and whenever there is football banter, we never fail to take sides with our respective clubs. We stand by them no matter what because that's what being a fan of a football club is all about - unwavering loyalty. However, not all of our favorite clubs perform well. A typical case study is Chelsea, who have had one of their worst performances this season, currently occupying the 11th position. The challenges they have faced this season are unlike any other. Just last night, they were brutally defeated by Manchester United, who showed them no mercy, to the extent that they didn't even celebrate one of their goals.

C'mon man only a sentimental fool wouldn't bet against his club on knowing that he is going to gain from them losing. Well I cant speak for everyone but for my stand I definitely do that almost all the time when my club is actually experiencing a losing spree and I call it a reverse bet so I can't feel it because I know how it feels for your team to lose a match so I actually stake two different ticket with different option on the selected games. I have had series of loses so I have even decided to go neutral on the supporting of any teams so now I bet only on stats of the current forms of the teams I want put my money on.

As long as you are comfortable with what you are going to lose, it's ok to bet because you are a die-hard fan but it's better to cheer for them and not bet if you knew all along that your team has no chance of winning.

A die-hard fan will always hope for his team to win whatever the odds, but you can't be losing money when they are losing,  your team will not give your money back if ever you lose.

I seldom against my favorite team it's like hoping that they lose and you do not represent yourself as a die-hard fan if you wish your favorite to lose.

There are other ways or chances to make money from sports betting but not at the expense of your favorite team.

True. It’s okay to lose as long as you can manage the amount you lose, after all betting does not assure winning on your favorite club the whole time. However, if asked if I’ll gonna bet against my favorite club, that’s seldom to happen. I always bet on my favorite team, and if ever the chances of losing is high, then it’s better not to bet at all and just support them in their games. It’s not a die-hard fan anymore if you bet on the other team for the sake of money. Sometimes, satisfaction counts more than simply winning money.

[slapper]

As a neutral football fan who appreciates the underdog (although I do have a soft spot for Real Madrid), let me present a different perspective. When you wager against your club, you're not necessarily betraying them, right? Rather, you're acknowledging the unpredictability of the game, the fickle nature of fate. Isn't that part of the charm?

Look at Chelsea's recent downturn. Wouldn't a rational bettor see this as an opportunity to make some money, all club allegiances aside? I mean, loyalty to a football club shouldn't mean turning a blind eye to their potential shortcomings. Who's to say pragmatism and passion can't coexist?

[DaNNy001]

I think it will depend on our fanaticism for the club because if we want to use the moment to our advantage, we will probably bet against your club, especially if our club's opponents are better than ours. It would be a loss if we chose our club when the opponent was stronger.

But some people will stay loyal and not bet against them. And some just watch the game and don't gamble because they don't want to see that loss. I don't know about people, but if it were me, I would rather not bet and not watch it because it hurts to see our club lose.

Well I don't like seeing my team lose and definitely hate to see them on my coupon and I predicted them to lose so when my team is experiencing such hard times I just skip them from any of my bets and I do this because I don't gamble because of the money I want to win just for the fun of it and it won't be any fun for me to see my team am supporting losing even though I know if I predict to lose it will be of financial benefit to me .

[Zilon]

I don't let emotions get in the way. I go for the odds and also checking previous history of the club i fan and their opponents then make my bet based on whom i feel can make it through the 90' strong. If the performance of my club isn't satisfactory in a particular season i don't mind betting against them till the end of that season the interest is the money and not the fan title.

There's no word fanaticism in my gambling, fanatical people will be losers (most cases), I'm a big fan of Atletico Madrid, do you remember when they were beaten 1 - 0 by Barcelona recently?  I didn't bet on that match because I was sure that Atletico Madrid would lose, that's how I did it, even though I don't support them from gambling, at least I still support them and hope they can beat Barcelona at that time. My way of thinking like this didn't just come to me, I have this kind of thinking because I was let down by them and at that time I made a big bet (lost).  In conclusion, it's okay for you to be a fanatic of the club you like, but don't always bring it into gambling, because that will really kill you.

In as much as I always wish my team to win in every game they play, it will be a good opportunity to win big betting against my team especially when the team is in a poor state. Personally I have won several times betting against my team Manchester United when they were in poor form last season, there was a particular season when they will play straight three draws in three matches will I continue to be loyal and keep losing funds just because I support them I guess no is the answer, I will always want the good of my team but when they can't win a match due to their terrible season I will surely increase my financial gain betting against them.
