Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet?

[8rch7]

Yes, no doubt such a feeling can be frustrating, but what could be more frustrating is if the game you were watching was the last game on your betting slip, and the team you gambled on were winning not until 89 minutes before an equalizing goal scored made by the opposite team, which resulted to you losing your entire betting slip. Then that's what could be more frustrating.
But however, when we gamble and watch the same game, it puts us into a state of panic, simply because our money has been tied to a certain club/team who we anticipate to perform better, for us to reap a reward, unlike when we just watch a game we do not gamble on, as it places us im a free state of mind.

Have advantage with watching the match game betting get the opportunity with teams performance and make early cash out or waiting until the end of match, usually with sport betting in Stake I have optional to cash out early before end the game match and watching teams bet potential for winning or not depend their performance. Get more under pressure such as manager when looking our team bet on frustrated position get conceded early or opponent teams keep pressure and more offensive. Likely push up our adrenaline when watching teams bet and need to get right choose later after watching the match will our team bet has chance for winning or not?

For single bet is easily for watching the match with bet team but for multiple bet its difficult exactly when match play in the same time which one team have to watch.

I would prepare to watch matches I have bets on so that I can determine what will be the outcome of the match. Gambling is more of risks that profits. Once I am watching the matching I bet on, I am always careful next time on the way I bet on that kind of match and staying guarded avoiding further loses if I finally lose on the bet. There are people that don't find it funny watching match they bet on. Sometimes this might make them emotions to an extent. Which over ways we prefer, it is good for us to be careful and make proper plans on which one is best for us to consider.

Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.

Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?

Feeling stressed and disappointed if we lose a bet is normal, especially when we are watching, of course our mood will be ruined when watching a match. I also often do that, if I lose a bet, I feel lazy to watch the match. Being disappointed doesn't mean we are not ready to lose money in betting, but because we no longer have the passion to watch and for me that is a normal thing.

That's why now I usually won't bet anymore if my favorite team is playing, not without reason because I'm afraid of being disappointed. The favorite team loses, the bet also loses, so you are disappointed twice.
Moreover, when we bet on our favorite teams, we sometimes go against the grain, betting not based on analysis but based on feelings.

[passwordnow]

It only becomes stressful when the amount staked is quite high and you're unsure about that bet but still you've just placed it. Regardless of whether I bet or not, if I really like the match I'd definitely going to enjoy watching it but it's more of course thrilling when I have bet on it. That sums up the joy that you have when you do it and you bet for it. That's why if you think that you cannot attain to watch a match that you bet for, simply don't watch it. And there are bettors that have rituals for themselves that they don't have to watch their matches because they believe that they're going to lose if ever they do, so they choose not to.

Well, all of these are for entertainment if it is with these sports but when my money is on it, it changes everything and becomes more than an entertainment and I believe that most of us are the same on it, right?
So, if your main purpose is to have fun. Do all your bets and never mind whether you win it or not because you choose to watch it and just enjoy the game. Otherwise, you're adding pressure to yourself because you are thinking of your bet and setting aside to enjoy the seat and the game.

Mindset matters. Don't let betting's risk-reward nature fool you. Remember to never bet more than you can lose. This is prudent gambling's first rule. This is a marathon, so keep stakes low.

About game enjoyment. Bets create excitement, but don't let them eclipse sports' true joy. Stop betting if your heart is racing and palms are sweating. A bright, flashing neon sign indicates overdoing it. Sports are about emotion, excitement, and sometimes just watching great athletes.

Final thing: rituals and superstitions. They're human coping mechanisms for unknown consequences. They shouldn't control your behavior. Bets should be calculated, not based on fear or irrational assumptions. Stay calm, clever, and remember that it's all about enjoying the game, regardless of your bet.

We can't stop those gamblers no matter how many times we give a reminder about them gambling only with what they can afford to lose. They're still moving on a lot from what they can afford to what they can't afford to lose because they think that the ratio should be like that. That the more capital or bankroll they have, the more chance of winning. They are not wrong with that but that doesn't give them the guarantee that it's going to happen just because they've got a lot.

There's so much to learn from those people that have learned with gambling. Those that have lost that much because they're too hyper with their decisions and never stopped to have a second thought whether they're going to continue it or not. Basically, those gamblers that are enjoying while they bet or not are the ones that can control themselves and at the same time, they've got money but are aware of what they're doing and before making a decision.

Well, we definitely don't feel the same way, that is, you and I, for me watching a match I have a bet on is always very exciting, even when my team of losing, I still feel excitements though in a different way which I can't refer to as stressful, maybe I don't know what actually to call it, but I honestly know what I feel.

All it takes to enjoy watching a game you have a bet on, is to make sure you do not over bet, and by that, I mean that, you should not bet more than you are ready or can afford to loose, what I usually do is consider my money lost even before I place a bet, this way, I don't feel very bad when the team I have my bet on is losing their game, I just consider it all fun and exciting most especially when I am watching the game  with friends or family who are into sports as well.

Everyone has different views about this, to be honest, I'm a big fan of Chelsea, but because currently their performance is very inconsistent, I'm too lazy to place bets when they play, I prefer to bet on the matches they play. by Man City or other big teams, just like you I also don't want to lose twice (lose feelings and also betting money lol)
in sports betting, those who often win are those who use analysis (not feelings) when placing bets, because using feelings in betting will only have a bad impact on the results of the bet, so never bet with feelings, always use analysis.

I think that a true and loyal fan of his team does not need to bet on the match. This is completely unnecessary. A bet causes a skew of feelings between sincere ones, coming from the heart, and gambling ones, coming from a bet on a gambling site. If we make a big bet, it will cloud our mind, we will only want the result and the process of playing our favorite team may lose interest. It’s better not to experience this and just enjoy the game, enjoy every moment, worry, grab your head, applaud, thank the team, this is better than any bets. It's like a little life, it's priceless if you truly love your team. At least that's how I see it.

Yes, that is a double shot on the chest, a double frustration you would have to swallow. Personally, I cheer for Botafogo brazilian club. Thankfully I didn't place a bet for them this year, even though I considered doing this for a while when the team was still winning their matches. But imagine if I did, besides losing my bet on Botafogo as champion of Brasileirão 2023, I would have also suffered seeing the team I most like going from top 1 position, and remaining there for a long time of the championship, to fifth position in the end, only losing and tying matches from a certain moment of the championship on.

I know many people have faced this situation, because they placed bets for Botafogo, trusting the club with all their hopes. And now I'm pretty sure they are never going to do this again on their lives, because this specific event wasn't just frustrating, it was traumatizing!

[ethereumhunter]

maybe everyone has different thoughts but for me it all depends on how you consider your bet to make a profit or just to try your luck in the match. If a bettor hopes for a profit that has been targeted, he will definitely bet a large amount and when watching a match and losing, most bettors who are looking for a profit will experience the same thing. but for bettors who think this is just to try their luck with a small amount of $1 with high odds I dont think they will feel regret or stress if the match is lost because $1 is just a small amount and worth losing.

I understand the situation you have experienced, even I myself have also experienced this, but from mistakes in the past I have become better without feeling disappointed if my bet loses because I enjoy watching the match more and if I lose I will not regret it because I watched my match. to be entertained and my betting amount was not too big involving only $1

Betting with an amount of $1 will not give bettors any regrets because usually, they will bet with a larger amount of money because they want to win a lot of money. It is normal that they want to watch the match, and if he is a wise person, he will learn the match from watching the match so that it can improve his abilities and also his knowledge, which can be useful at other times. Each bettor's goals will differ. Some people want to win the match and some want to have fun by betting on their favorite team. So every bettor can decide whether to watch the match or just place a bet because they feel it will be too emotional.

Yes, I agree with you because learning from past mistakes can give us an understanding of what we should do, making us wiser in responding to them. We will choose whether to watch the match or not, and if we can accept whatever final result of the match can give us any betting results, we can still watch the match. If we lose, it will not disappoint us because we are already aware of the consequences we will face.

I agree that people will learn from their past mistakes but sometimes even if they experienced worst cases, they still continue doing it, repeatedly.

Which over ways we prefer, it is good for us to be careful and make proper plans on which one is best for us to consider.

That's the purpose of betting on a match, to get the emotions out. To get excited, to get angry, frustrated, and joyful if it's a win. I don't like putting bets on games that I don't have any idea about but I did try it before betting on table tennis matches from Russian tournaments if I remember right. In the end, I still watched the games, (thanks to the stream offered by Stake.com) because I was curious if I could hit my parlay. It was a long parlay which is why I was forced to do so and I am trying to determine where I could cash it out. Thankfully, it was a successful one and I got an x50 on that parlay with 12 matches. I just didn't continue and cashed it out early.
Did I have fun watching the table tennis games that I know nothing about? I did. And it's because I have some money which is on the line that made me do it. While watching those games I can still remember I was cheering for one dude just so my parlay won't be broken and it worked out fine.

[Kelward]

Watching the game that you bet on can be a distraction, you'll always have a tense feeling when the game is going against your bet, you might even experience many mood swings during the game, excited when it's in the favor of your bet and sad if it's not. Although you can still experience this mood swings when your favorite team is playing, because you don't want them to loose, but I believe that the feeling will be more intense when your money is at stake.

Some Will argue that afterall we gamble for fun, not really to make money, so why should losing our bet bother us?
But the fact is that nobody likes to loose, whether money is involved or not, winning gives a feeling of fulfilment, while loses makes us to feel sad, no matter how slightly it might be.

I got your point mate but in order to have closure on your bet, whether you or you lose, you must check the final score. Yeah, you can't concentrate on your work or whatever you are doing if you have bets going on but you will learn to adjust so as to not get distracted by the thoughts of having a bet, I mean you will get used to it.

I think it depends on how much they allocate to the bet, if it's a small amount or even just 1% which is not too valuable to them then I think they won't worry  too much about losing. From what you've said, I think I've come to the conclusion that you're referring to gamblers who can't take responsibility for the outcome of their bets, so they feel anxious and instead of watching the game with a sense of excitement, they focus on the final result, whether  they win or lose.

About whether they will be able to learn from their past mistakes I think that is still a possibility, the fact is that not a few are still doing the same thing that ends up getting  stuck in the same hole as you said that sometimes they still make the same mistakes. Not being able to resist temptation is one of the initial causes in my opinion, so they return to the same beliefs and hopes which eventually regret as before again.

Feelings of anxiety and loss of concentration when the team that is favored in betting is under pressure or is behind by the opposing team. The excitement of watching when placing a bet when the underdog team manages to make a dramatic comeback, when bettors think there is no hope anymore, but the result of the match can change before the end of the match.
This excitement will give a different feel after the match is over, they start to feel sluggish and not enthusiastic because they think they will lose, but luck is still on their side because the team they support turns ahead in the final minutes.

[Kavelj22]

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?

This can be explained by many reasons, depending on the psychological state of each person, and it is most likely to be enthusiastic. Everyone will want to raise the challenge by betting on the favorite leagues.  

Considering that those watching the matches are not regular gamblers, placing a bet will be a way to raise the challenge and have more fun.  When your bet loses, it means that your favorite choice in sports games has lost, and for this reason you will be sad.

If you are a gambler, the situation will certainly be different.

Emotions would really be just that the same or something that could really be that progressive on which thrill,excitement,anger,disappointment etc. would really be there.
Speaking about fun and excitement then having those bets or money involved thing will really be adding spice on the thing you are dealing with which it would really be that comparable if we do speak
without having any bets or money involved on which you wont really be having care whether the bet would really be a win or lose since you do know that you wont really be losing something.
This is their main difference if we do speak about those betting with money or not. If you could be able to bare up the risks on losing just for the sake of making some leisure and entertainment
then it isnt bad to have some engagement with this one.

If I have succeeded in understanding your position well, I would like to point out that the example given by the OP is that it is possible that the person is following one of the matches passionately, and his initial intention is not to place bets for the purpose of profit. The question in the title explains this and makes the picture clearer by asking how much fun a match follower might feel if he placed a bet on one of the chances, which assumes that the viewer may not always be a gambler by nature.

An addicted gambler will not hesitate to place one or more bets on several odds in a match, while sports enthusiasts may find pleasure (not addictive) in placing a bet on the odds of their favorite teams.

I watch this with curiosity and concern. Botafogo's ascent and fall surprise fans and bettors. The emotional rollercoaster of sports fandom is amplified by betting. Loyalty and hope are tested in this dynamic, merciless environment. Healthy gambling is everything. The trajectory of Botafogo illustrates this. Sports are unpredictable, therefore betting should reflect that. Not only is winning exciting, but so is knowing the odds and probable loss. Responsible gamblers accept ambiguity.

Though discouraging, this event can change you. Gambling resilience and detachment are taught. It urges fans and bettors to mix emotion and prudence. The emotional investment in a team is normal, but betting must be done wisely due of sports' unpredictability.

In conclusion, watching while putting the amount of money to bet will trigger more adrenaline, the situation will be more tense than we just watch and without betting, the anxiety of losing the team we favor is one thing but the anxiety of losing the money we bet is another thing which of course thinks people who watch while betting will focus more on the money they bet, or that means the tension that occurs there as a result of the fear of losing the money they bet.

So if they feel a very tense sensation like that I think it's likely that they put an amount that they can't afford to lose, because it looks like the pressure reaction they feel when watching it already reflects the fear of losing the money they bet, in the sense that they come not for pleasure but hope for a victory.

Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?

I consider it consoling to watch a match that I've placed a bet on. Following it up makes me understand better and serves as a soothing calm to my anxiety towards the bet.

If the bet is not won, I understand why it didn't as I was following up on it but when not watching it, you are left refreshing the Web pages and expecting, building anxiety which is not a good approach to betting (in my opinion).

In my opinion, it's natural for us to feel disappointed when we fail, it's not a matter of whether we had fun watching it or not, no one wants to lose, so if you win continuously you will definitely get bored, so losing is an art and you need to follow up.
