A typical weekend in sport betting-Why do gamblers still do sport bets?

[darewaller]

I feel like sports bets are the only bets where you can be sure that everything is on the up and up. It’s honestly the only betting I do with any level of seriousness. I like being able to use my knowledge of sports to try and beat the odds, plus you get to watch more sports. Why wouldn’t someone want to bet on sporting events?

Maybe to you yes and maybe you are much focused on it, because there are also non-sports betting games which skills can matter. But, no matter how confident and sure we are about our picking or ability, there will always be a time that we can lose. When you are exposed in one game, there were recommendations of other games and we can get tempted to click and try them.

If you ask on why someone doesn't want to bet on the game that you like, well because not all people are the same. Like me for example, I have no idea how to place a bet in a sports betting platform lol. I find it too complicated and not user-friendly as the casino games.

What is the reason that sport bettors still continue to place sport bets?

Some gamblers find sports betting more entertaining and they might've been following sports before they started betting. A big favorite losing or conceding points against weaker teams doesn't mean sports betting isn't worth it. There are leagues with more competitive teams and you have to include other factors when betting because some sports might be entirely different from the other even though they look similar on paper. As you've said, luck is still involved and it's why you can't always trust the odds coming from the sportsbooks because even the best players can't avoid underperforming and mistakes all the time.

I am checking that in every single league of the big ones we have seen at least some surprise result and this is the typical weekend of many of the sport bettors.I wonder why do people still place sport bets because in slot machines I can understand,they run after the maximum payout and they know it is a game of pure luck,yet in here in sport betting it is not only pure luck,there is also skill involved and seeing many of the stronger teams lose their game today means that it is not worth doing anymore sport betting.

What is the reason that sport bettors still continue to place sport bets?

The reasons are

- Quite easy to predict
- It's not always relying upon my luck
- My analyzation matters a lot to predict which team that has bigger chance to win.

It sounds nonsense if you were saying sportsbetting has no same chance to make a lot of money. If you follow Stake's Twitter account, you would see that they regularly post about sports bettors who have won big prizes from betting on sports..

Sportbetting is proving to be much more entertaining for me.

I'm a sports bettor, and I love football.
Every day I read news about football, watch programs about this sport on TV, I'm always looking on the internet for news about it and it's also one of my main topics among my friends.
So I'm the one who asks you: Why wouldn't I also bet on football?
It's not just about making money, even if some results are totally contradictory to the statistics.... it's about betting on something I love. Why not?

I am hopeful that there are still many bettors who do this for the love of the sport and not just for the money.

I would venture to say that this is the main reason fans gamble on sports at all, when I think of all the people that I know that make sports bets none of them care about games like poker, dice or slots, so it is not as if they like gambling itself, what they like is the feeling of having more at stake when their team wins or losses.

So in a way gambling in sports bets is simply an extension of the passion they have for a particular sport, this is also similar to what I see with video games, in which people play a video game that is about the sport they love but otherwise they do not care at all about any other video game.

But some gamblers gamble on sports and play casino games like poker, craps, or slots. I also sometimes gamble on sports, and I also play slots. So gamblers will choose gambling games that they like, and there may be gamblers who like all gambling games even though they don't play them very often.

And what makes gamblers return to gambling is winning some money even though not many can. When gamblers have found a gambling game they like, they will return to the casino, and it doesn't take long for them to return to the casino. Besides that, gamblers who gamble on sports betting place their bets again because their favorite team will compete or they really want to use their free time by betting. But some really want to bet at the end of the week.

To feel normal I guess. Gamblers will gamble, that's normal to them. They can't  take their eyes off the odds they see on matches in order to make money, they bet especially on the sport they follow the most.

There are just casino games as well that doesn't need learning at all. You don't even need to be a fan of the game to play it. And if there is no matches during the week, casino games will do to make the day normal.

And gamblers will still gamble whenever they want and not gamble on the weekend, especially if it is an ongoing event like the World Cup. And when the event is taking place, they may place bets more than usual because that is the time for them to have a greater chance of winning.

Yes, people will turn to casino games if there are no interesting games they can gamble on. But some choose to rest and recover or reduce yesterday's tension. But real gamblers will still gamble, especially if they already have their favorite casino. The presence or absence of matches from their favorite sport does not make them stop gambling for a while because there are many casino games they can play while waiting for the moment when betting on their favorite sport starts again.

Gambling is broad, we have to learn about the system thoroughly before anticipating in these gambling activities. There's numerous categories that would be either favours us and there are some that would scrambled upon us. Sport betting is actually a simple task if a gambler is acquainted with the whole gambling system. We choose a sector we would find easier to wager, and definitely not going into a more complicated side that we have no knowledge or clue about. Odds are another thing that fueled up our returns on games, more serving as a leverage in trading.

Maybe for a worker who is busy on weekdays like me, weekends are the time to relax and play gambling to just have fun and relax in the evening. It's true that sometimes if there are no interesting sports bets, I usually play some casino games, but sometimes I just play casino games. to fill the void while waiting for the match event to start so there is no harm in playing casino.

But sometimes it all depends on how people use their weekends, but most sporting events are always on weekends where everyone can take part in the available sports betting and also play casinos, I think maybe some of those who bet on sports bets, some like to make extra money also or just for fun as a hobby because they watch football for their favorite team.

I was thinking that the question is a rhetorical one but we can still give an answer. In football leagues which is played in weekend in most time because of the public workers who would have chanced to watch the games in the weekend make the matches to be fixed for the weekends. And if you look at it, you will discovered that, people play sports bet more than slot machine games. And people bet on sport for fun and partial income.

One thing in gambling is faith. When you bet a sport game, you will have the faith that you will win the game and no gambler would agree that he would loss the game. The faith of winning the game is always there until it is obvious that the side he is supporting is losing out then he would loss hope to win the game. People use sport betting because it is more easier to predict and bet on.

The reason why you are interested in the sport of football is that it makes sense. What is that, those who are interested in sports definitely understand the game of each team, making it easier for them to analyze who is stronger between team A and team B.

To be precise in sports betting it is 80% skill and 20% luck. This is because they know that behind their skill in analyzing a team, there will be results that are wrong even though the quality of the team that has been analyzed has quite good quality and a series of achievements.
When you play slots, it is full of temptations that are difficult to resist.

That is why many bet on sports instead of playing slots.
