Paper Betting- Would You Consider it if you Were to Start Sports betting Again

[Fivestar4everMVP]

If you were to restart sports betting again, would consider learning first by betting on paper. This involves selecting 1 to 2 games daily and tracking the outcomes of your picks without wagering real money on a sportsbookie platform.

Paper betting refers to participating in sports gambling without fronting any money. The idea is to learn the ropes without actually risking real money.

Well, having to spend time to learn something before doing it is always an advantage to a person or people, but to be honest with you, I see no way betting on paper actually helps a gambler, because there are no technicalities in sports betting, so what exactly is there to learn?

You either risk the money or you are not betting, it's as simple as that, paper betting does not help a gambler learn anything, because that someone won several bets on paper doesn't mean that he or she will also win several bets when money gets involved, I personally remember that most of the time when a sports match is on, or there is a game coming up, I usually in my head choose who my favorite team is, and hope for them to win the game, and sometimes, it does happen that the team I loved and hoped for them to win actually end up winning, and some other times, it turns out that I was wrong, as the team I believed would win end up losing, if I had betted money on this games, It would have been the same, some wins and some losses.
So, of what essence is betting on paper before actually betting real money? When in reality, I don't see how it helps a gambler?.

Naturally before one goes into gambling there is always a force that drives that person into gambling which is called "Desire" and this eagerness will caused you to go learn lot of things about gambling in order to start playing gamble. In nutshell we don't going back paper betting before going in the real betting but however, gambling is a game of interest and likeness if someone do not develop interest she will never gamble no matter how hard you tried to push that person.
With the look out of things there are people who might not want to go back to paper bet because they always want to start it straight that will be better for them than going through those long processes.

But OP I did not remember talking about how I have quit gambling to restart up again or you mean to say assuming I am to begin betting as a beginner?

I will take it from the above. Lol.
As a beginner at all costs, one would always stand that chance to resolve with its financial potentials looses especially when you engages on some demonstrative exercises towards your endivoirs so, betting on a paper shit as a beginner without staking a fund and could keep my prediction results on track is a buyable and acceptable suggestion OP, I understand that gambling is a game of luck that even a beginner can make a straight winning while the experienced gamblers could be doomed and loosing.  But that does not make a change of illiciting that you do not need to study the gambling networks and its formations on how the games are picked with some strategeous analysis because that lies your confidence even though the game did not countered as predicted.
So playing a demo or playing on the paper and keeping your games on track at which you don't need to loose or win any stake can enhance your gambling experiences after which spending much practical times on a realistic gaming but only that there was no stakes involved.

Hence and afterwards you must have learnt some lessons on what could cause your winning and what you bring you to fail. I love demo practitioner.

If a starting gambler knows his sport then I bet he will jump the gun and start betting with money at risk. Plus, the best part of today's sports bookies is they are not expensive. You can bet to as low as $0.09 in one sport and you can even boost the odds by making a parlay if there's a feature added to boost it.
I don't think this will work out in today's era considering how cheap the minimum bet is. I mean, for me I'd rather take my chances on that and spice up the game because I put money on the line.
Also, the ease of access to all the information about sports is out on the internet so making the winning chances higher is easy. But, maybe I want to try those kinds of things just for experience. I mean, that's old school and it could be fun.

I would love to print out previous results and do a thorough research and do some analysis on past performance, past results, how many goals achieve in each match and summarise them to give me atleast %90 accurate predictions despite I know that gambling is a game of luck but chances of winning will be higher than chances of loosing.

For me, no. But I'll recommend it for beginners. It would help beginners to understand the basics of sports betting with the financial risk. Track picks, analyze outcomes, refine your strategies, and gain confidence before wagering real money. All in all it still depends on an individuals personal choice if paper betting or use real money. Take time to learn and practice.

The importance of paper betting just like paper trading should be limited to helping the gambler master the gambling environment, the rules and various gambling options. It should never be used as the real gambling experience because gambling with real money is totally different from paper gambling. The simple proof is that in paper gambling, emotions are not engaged, the gambler is scared of losses because it is not real money. But in real gambling, emotions are active, the feeling of fear alone can result to mistakes and eventually losses. In demo trading, almost all traders make profits and find trading so easy but when real capital is involved, everything changes, the once winning strategy will start to give losing streak. This will not be any different from gambling the reason I suggest any newbie gambler should fund small amount of money and test gambling with it rather than using paper gambling.

I preferred to learn through my experience on gambling because it’s just a based on luck even if I do some analysis on a game. There’s a lot of unknown variables that affect a game such as star player not performing well, injury and other unforeseen event. I just use small amount whenever I’m still on this learning phase and increase gradually when the result is looking good until I hit a bumps of lose which means I start again from scratch.

I usually watch a lot of matches on a same league before I place a bet and enter to my learning phase of actual betting. Nothing is wrong when playing using paper bet but there’s really no fun if there’s no money involved.

Yeah, there's still a part where you can win based on luck, but the thing is, analysing and formulating a strategy to formulate your decision is a must even in sports betting, and it gives those sports bets more chances of winning if you carefully analyse the game or the two opposing teams or players. That's why being updated on the sports you are betting on is important, so you can know or have an idea who will win or not. 

I like sports betting, and it makes up my whole gambling career, meaning I mostly do sports betting rather than gambling, such as relying on luck. Sports betting is my number one gambling game, and second is card game-based gambling because it does not rely on luck more. So I'd rather play sports betting than every other gambling game, and if I have to start playing paper-based betting, then I'm open to exploring it.

It is a waste of time. It is not even games that I do not know about but sport betting. I bet on sports that I know. That is why I prefer to just go for football. I know everything and what I need to go for without any demo. Demo is used by people that wants to know something but do not want to use their money to learn the thing. I know about sport betting and I can not go for paper betting.

[Lida93]

It is an alternative to which those who do not have experience and would like more than to earn money to be entertained should go, in my case I would not do it, I can assume at sports betting losses without problems.

Not just you mate, many other gamblers won't do it and it could be considered to be a waste of time in doing that when the game gambling is not about how much time you take to learn about it that determines how often or consistently your winnings will be coming in but basically  determined by chance if you will win or lose.

Furthermore, sports betting shouldn't be that had for a pure beginning in as much as he has some ideas about the team's and the rules of play in that particular sport he's interested in making his predictions on for a bet. Football for instance, as a football fan you don't need be told a team like Manchester City is with high chances of winning a team like Aston Villa in a match, it's just for you to go ahead with a straight win for Man. City and that's how it begins down to other gambling options as you proceed. Right?

It is a good way to practice for the newbies and a good way to analyze your decision making skills. When you are doing this on paper try to write out the reasoning as to why you thought a specific event outcome to come or not come. That way when the event happens you can look back at where you went wrong or right.

However sports betting still carries a luck factor in it so you might not be able to do justice with your predictions. If that happens, dont bother because it betting and is supposed to be like that.

[passwordnow]

Although I don't need this to start somewhere again if I'm going to get into sports betting since I don't need some refresher. But I do see those that want to try it for their first times like having a play money, this is just for fun and might helpful for them. If you are fearing of losing your money and just want to test how good you are then you can always get into paper betting or any of these play money just to have fun. Because if you don't have anything to do and yet you don't have money to gamble and bet some with your favorite sports and the casino that you use have this or you know a platform that supports this kind of feature then you can simply enjoy.

But in return, you are not expecting real money to come to you because you're playing to have fun with those paper betting or play money and that's not convertible to cash but I think of it as a way like a training ground for someone who's training himself to have some good experience in betting. You can improve your skills doing this and you'd get to see how well you're doing on it.

I do not see why not, in my case I paper traded for months before doing so for real, so that kind of experience will not be odd to me at all, the only difference is that I do not really have any hopes of making any money while gambling, so making such an effort for months seems like a waste, as I could do something else with my time.

That being said, those that have hopes of turning professional gamblers through sport bets, will do well to try this and see if their strategy holds up when used on the real world.

Rules though or sports betting are very easy, if you are a beginner, you can just bet on the teams that you think who will win that's it. And then as you go along, you might see options like handicap or multi-betting which makes it more exciting.

And for sure majority of gamblers didn't started this way, they go bet online or even with others to see who will win, that's it. Very easy to understand. Getting into this kind of demo mode will just delay the inevitable in my opinion. That you're going to fall in love with it and become addicted.

I've tried but I don't find it fun... What I did is just I bet a small amount only so I could still somehow feel the thrill, a little one.  The plan was to increase the bet once I can already see the consistency, meaning I should have a good winning percentage. Actually the real challenge here is on setting up a decent bankroll and managing it.

[Solosanz]

Imagine if they're actually profit in paper betting, but they're in loss when they bet using real money. They might don't believe what have they done and they're keep thinking they will able to make money because they might be unlucky before.

There's difference between paper betting and real betting, in paper betting you don't care with analysis and emotion, while in real betting you could easily change your picks because you're worried if you lose.

Demo is a good thing, it helps you get accustomed to the gambling patterns before going into the real thing and is essential for proper understanding and reduction of the complications people face while gamboling, especially when they're new to it. During my early days in gambling, there was nothing like a demo and I struggled terribly, lost  a lot of funds before getting accustomed to the offline gambling patterns, sometimes I was even a laughing stock among my peers when I ask for clarifications from them about betting patterns I'm yet to fully understand.

All these difficulties I experienced could be averted if I simply had a demo to work with properly before actually engaging in it. So I'll go for paper gambling before diving into the real thing.

[bitbollo]

Short answer Is no.
I don't think it's a good strategy.
When you don't risk money, you play differently. And moneymanagement is an essential part of Gambling.
More over if you play without money ... Its like to drink a glass of wine without alcohol..if you don't have fun and better let it go and have another hobbie.

[Strongkored]

I would prefer to gamble with the real thing, and if the reason is to be able to learn then we can use real money but with a small amount so that we can immediately feel the pressure of the bet, because only using a demo account there will be no pressure felt, just like a demo trading account, unless what is offered from the gambling site is a very different thing or still gives a prize when players reach a certain rank.
