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

[Smartvirus]

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.

You are pens dot on this one.
I have done this a few times and it usually isn’t that enjoyable. As well as you just might be playing for leisure, you would be more satisfied if you happen to win and so, while watching a game that you’ve gambled on and it ain’t going according yo your prediction comes with a different level of adrenaline rush.
Maybe you might be that sort of person that is in it for the adrenaline, getting to be in the game, see all the efforts and mistakes that either produced or made you lose your bet and the joys or pain that comes with yo be better felt. I still wouldn’t want to be in that position but, I don’t shy away from it if that’s the case. If it’s a game I so want to watch, I will watch but, it’s not much pleasurable.

Losing is never been that non stressful, doesnt matter if you are making bets with sports betting or would really be just simply doing those casino games stuff on which we dont really like on losing money and this is why it would really be just that a common that people would be sharing up with the same sentiment or emotion when losing money. No one really likes on losing money but there's nothing we can do about it since we are betting money. Gambling does involved betting money on which if you dont really have that money involved then you wont really be able to feel up the thrill
and this is where people do really look out for on which the thrill that gambling gives but we cant deny that everyone would really be playing for the sake of profit.

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.

I can understand what you mean here. It can be stressful watching a game that you’ve placed some good money on a bet and the side you bet on doesn’t seem to want the win that badly and are playing poorly.
I sometimes, think it’s not necessary to get worked up over matches that I’ve placed bets on and skip watching such games. It’s better not to watch such games and just check the outcome later on.
Matches that I placed bets using a considerable amount of money, it’s sometimes much easier for me and my heart not to watch it. It’s not really fun watching the side you bet heavily on play and go on to lose.

[noormcs5]

I am with you on this. Yes, we have our own favorite teams that we are all rooting for.
However, when it comes to betting, I also follow my instincts even if it is not my team.
Because at the end of the day, it is your money at stake. They don't care about your funds, whether you lose it or not.
So you can cheer on your favorite team but your bets may be on the opposite team. For me, that's more than understandable.

I think it is impossible to cheer up your favorite team if you are placing the bet on the opposite team. So now, what will be your preference, would you like that your favourite team win and you to lose your bet (as you were cheering for your favorite team)? Or you may that your favourite team loses so that you can win the bet.

I know this situation is difficult where your mind is with the team you bet and your heart wants your favorite team to win. If this situation comes to me, I will avoid placing a bet on such matches where I am too emotional with my favorite team even though it may be the weaker team out of the two.
There are too many matches out there, where we can bet, so leaving such matches and watching them without betting is a better and stress free option in my opinion.

In the sense that the tension increases when you watch your favorite team play along with putting the amount of budget to bet, there are two disappointments that you or they will feel when the final result really loses, and vice versa there will also be two feelings of joy when your favorite team can really win by any means. I think it comes back to the choice of each individual about whether they want to watch while betting or just watch or bet without watching the match.

Another thing is that I think if you really want to take both, meaning watching while betting then I think there is one thing you should pay attention to if you really don't want to feel significant disappointment if you end up losing, namely putting the smallest amount of budget whether it's 1% or whatever the point is not to upset you and not disturb your financial balance if your favorite team loses. By summarizing what you said about your habits, it seems that you are one of those people who prefer to focus on the final result of your bet rather than looking for fun by watching the game, and you only check or look for the final answer when the match is over, of course, as I said above that everyone has their own choices.

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?

You are indeed right. When I bet on a game, it becomes a more entertaining game for me, but when I lose the bet, the same game becomes a nightmare for me. When we win, it's more fun, but when we lose, it's just as disappointing. I think betting creates a kind of leverage. It increases the amount of fun and disappointment.

It's not good to watch we favorite team play if we don't bet for our team wins, apart from adding enthusiasm to watching, of course winning can be something we hope for apart from the team winning, of course double money is our dream when the match ends, but apart from the fun we get , we also cannot deny that if the team loses, it will of course double our disappointment and it is not uncommon for us to express anger at the defeat.

[Viscore]

I know this situation is difficult where your mind is with the team you bet and your heart wants your favorite team to win.

This is a familiar strategy in sports betting, "bet against yourself". If you are a gambler who constantly record the outcome of your bets and you notice that you have high losing percentage, then betting against yourself is the key to win. However, that will mean you'll have to sacrifice the fun as that gives fun in sports betting is when our emotion are in control, this strategy is to follow our mind and fade our heart.

This is a normal thing experienced by a bettor who watches the match where he also places a bet. He will hope to win from his bet, but often, the reality will not be what we want. We have to be ready for whatever the result is after the match is over, and we can also adjust the bet to the money we have. There is no need to bet a lot of money where we can lose all the money later. I also often feel stressed like other gamblers when I decide to watch the game.

But I also often avoid watching the matches I use to place bets. This prevents me from experiencing stress throughout the match and not being too disappointed with the final result. Apart from that, after placing a bet, I usually do other things that can keep me busy and not think about the match. It can work for me and when I see the results of the bet, if I lose, I won't be too disappointed because it's money I can afford that I'm betting on.

Ofcourse we will feel disappointed because at the end we think of a probability to occur and hope that it happens and when it doesn't then it creates a short term impact on our mind.
But it also depends on us whether we let it affect us or not. We shouldn't bet high amounts which creates huge impact on us.
Betting limited amount so that we can actually have fun watching the game is more preferable.

[BitcoinTurk]

Watching matches without betting you may still feel dissapointed mostly when your team loses. But not compare to you betting and seeing your team lose too. That feeling can be frustrating no doubt most you went all out. In the betting putting most hope on your team so that will double disappointment so it won't be fun it will be tense even seeing the team you bet on taking in goals the tension will be increasing. So watching match without betting feel more satisfying thought because you actually got nothing lose but you still feel some disappointment.

Of course, when you watch your favorite team's match you will be upset if your team loses that match and if you have placed a bet on this match your upset will double if you lose your bet. However, as someone who generally chooses to place sports bets on whether my favorite team will win the match due to my greater excitement, I would like to point out that I watch the matches I bet on with greater pleasure. As someone who has watched the matches of my favorite team before with and without betting I must say that I watch the match more excitedly when I bet regardless of the outcome. Of course, if my favorite team loses the match, I feel twice as sad than usual but this isn't a valid reason for me to deny the fact that I watch more enjoyable and exciting matches when I bet.

[majeed]

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.

[nara1892]

I think for this problem it really comes back to everyone's choice and also with what they want and what their purpose is involved, the logic is clear as you said if indeed they come only for entertainment then the question is why they watch while betting? isn't watching the game running just that entertaining enough? but yes as I said above that all this depends on their choice, maybe they will really be able to feel the pleasure if they watch while betting.

I just hope whoever it is will stay well and be able to maintain their bank balance by only putting the amount they can afford to be responsible for whatever the outcome is, especially losing.

Of course not everyone watches sports for entertainment. Some also enjoy playing for betting results. Moreover, gamblers tend to pay more attention when watching a game than other people. But it is entirely up to one's choice what to do. There are many gamblers who are not motivated to watch the game unless they are betting. But the main thing is that those who are able to control themselves in gambling can enjoy their gambling or else there is a possibility of losing all their money.

The difference in perspective is one of the differences that is quite striking about what they want, whether watching while betting or just watching without betting, as I said earlier that there are also those who can really feel the enjoyment of entertainment when they watch while betting because it is quite involving adrenaline when they worry about potentially losing money involved at the same time.

Yes that's right, for people who choose to watch while betting I would give the same ideas and advice as you said, however if you do put money on the line then obviously this is a risky activity even though they basically want entertainment, because risk cannot always be avoided even if they are very optimistic in determining the team they choose, so one solution to minimize disappointment is to be strict with the limits they have set and by only using enough money as well as minimizing expectations on the final result.

This suggestion of not watching it could be so uncomfortable to many because it might be their favourite game or team that is playing at that time, that is the dilemma part of it. Well, that suggestion might be good at times if the person can indeed let go, but for someone like me, I can't let go, so finding the right solution to the problem instead of depriving myself of the fun is the answer. What I do is to caution myself, after all, it is me and my money, so I speak to myself to comport myself in such a way that I don't react based on the outcome of the game. After all, in this situation, it is not that you will lose every time, there are times you gain and this should be the consolation for the person. In my experience with football, to be specific, I win more than I lose, so when it even comes to the losing one that I bet and I am watching, it is not so hard for me to summon the courage and overlook things. Besides, I always consider emotion as a weakness, and it gets uglier and speaks of how weak the person is when such is letting it out and passing aggression to others or letting it be too obvious in his behaviour afterwards.

Watching a match that you staked can be very stressful and emotional, at this point your expectation will be for the match to favour the option you selected, but when you are watching a match that you didn't stake you mind is always free, if anyone loses you won't be bothered because there is nothing at stake, this is why some gamblers decide not to watch the game they staked because of the stress the past through in watching such game, more especially when this match is approaching due minute and the option they selected has not played yet, this situation can be devastating, I won't advise anyone to watch a match he or she placed bet on because it can tiger someone BP, people always say that bet create excitement, where will the excitement be when you lose, so be wise.

[vs2014]

In fact i don't think losing money is ever fun so losing especially exposes my own attitude and weakness. As you are one before betting and different after betting. even if the outcome of the bet is such that your mind will evolve such as the joy of losing or winning. Bad stressful thoughts will come upon you after repeated gambling losses and your money is at the last moment. However gambling has a lot of attitude and it manifests itself because of the individual's particular reasons such as the amount of money he or she will tolerate.

Watching matches without betting you may still feel dissapointed mostly when your team loses. But not compare to you betting and seeing your team lose too.
That feeling can be frustrating no doubt most you went all out.

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.

[acroman08]

both are fun if you are interested in the match you are watching but if you have put a bet on the match you are watching, there is another layer of anticipation which brings a lot of other emotion when watching a game.

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.

that's normal since you have put a stake in that game. even I would be stressed if the team I bet on is on the verge of losing.

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?

embrace it, there is really nothing you can do about it and there is nothing wrong with feeling disappointed when your bet results in a loss.

It definitely feels like you're more invested in the game when you have a bet on, even more so when you're at a live sport and can feel the extra atmosphere all around you. I'd only ever place very small bets on such events and I know it could definitely have a more emotional impact if you're placing larger amounts down, which can be both good or bad. Personally it feels like there is plenty of entertainment on offer with sports already, without the need to force betting into the equation and you are not forced to place a bet - so just avoid it if it ever becomes a personal problem for you. If your betting ends up making you feel sad if you lose, then you might be betting too much or should just leave it altogether.

It all depends on what we want and how we are being able to make the best opportunity out of it, you can be watching and also holding your bet slip with you to discover the whole thing got ruined and there's nothing you can do about it, that alone is enough to spoil the whole fun, you may also be willing to bet but couldn't meet up due to some personal reasons but have the opportunity of watching live match to discover what you would have played for if you made a bet could have turned a waste as well, gambling remains unpredictable and likewise our feelings when playing bets.

It can work for me and when I see the results of the bet, if I lose, I won't be too disappointed because it's money I can afford that I'm betting on.

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
