Can you stake it all put of over confidence in your club

[teamsherry]

Have anyone ever had confidence in any match that he was willing to be huge amounts to back up the confidence in a match that features his club. A friend of mine recently shocked me with how much passion and confidence he had in his club, man u vs liverpool  that happened on Sunday I guess was a very hard match cause Liverpool was already stomping 0:2 to man United but my friend was telling that man United won't lose the match, so I told him that if he has much confidence that he should stake life, shocking to me he went on and staked 5k on man United win to qualify which was about 7 odds at that time, and yeah it turned out right for him. Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

You friend was just lucky. But what I can deduce from this is that he is an amateur gambler and if he continues in this part he is going to lose a lot of money in the long run.

It looks like he gambles on the whim. No proper analysis, no risk management strategies and all. I am not happy that he won because if he had lost he would have lost a valuable lesson. There is no lesson in winning rather it is going to motivate him to do it again. And lead him eventually to chasing losses.

Tell him to gamble responsibly.

It wasn't over confidence it was reckless.

He did not tell us if he is a core glmaber but he said he staked on his club because they argue who is going to be a winner. Also know that the 5000 may not be $5000 but in local currency that may not have high price like the United States dollar. He can just use the amount of money that he can afford to lose to gamble and which will make him not to be an amateur gambler. Any match can be won. The professional gamblers will go for the best team to win and yet even lose in some matches.

Nah he isn't an armature gambler and I think  I well explained the situation very well, he was just trying to prove his confidence to me which in a way if he continues to do so in many occasions I would say immature but it was a one time thign and 5k isn't any thing to him, besides we used the money to have fun that same day.

Yeah he showed some kind of recklessness in his action to bet because if over confidence, gambling is risky and its based on luck, so he was luck this time.

Whoa, your friend is a true believer! Staking an amount like that on a comeback win is some high-level and serious confidence. But here's the thing... It wasn't the safest bet. While confidence in your club is awesome, that kind of high-stakes wager can be risky. One bad call and things could've gotten rough. Maybe a middle ground? Next time, your friend could put a smaller amount on a crazy high-odds bet and keep the rest on a safer wager. That way, he can enjoy the thrill while also being responsible.

Perhaps he did it just because he could afford to lose the amount, do you think?

Thats what gambling is on which you should really be having that fun and this is something that would really be the main thing on why we do gamble or make bets on having the thrill. When it comes on supporting on a particular team then it is really that something that will depend on a certain individual on which not all would really be the same when it comes to someones insight and belief. Just let him be on which its his money
not yours and if he does believe that his club would be winning then its a normal approach. We do have our own choices and this is why we do make a bet.

It would really be just only having two possible outcomes which it would neither be that a win or lose. Its impossible that they arent aware about on the amount that they've been betting into.
If it loses then move on and if it wins then that would really be putting up a smile in your face.

[SamReomo]

Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

Yes, many gamblers do that because of the pure love and trust on their team but that's a pure sign of foolishness to me. If that 5k was $5k USD then your friend took a huge risk because there was chance of loosing those $5k altogether. If I was on your friend's place then I would never do something like that.

         -    Honestly, I can't do what your friend referred to, but I can't deny that he has the guts to do it, and it's amazing, to be honest. But I won't really do that. For me, punching the moon is
like jumping into a sea with deep water, and yet I don't know how to swim. It's like if I did what he did.

The way he did it seems very reckless; I just don't know if this is what they noticed in accordance with OP's story or narrative on the subject he did.
Because my heart is weak when it comes to such things, honestly speaking.

I agree with you, gambling should be done for fun so that undesirable things don't happen, such as emotional outbursts or loss of self-control when gambling. It's true what you said when it comes to supporting it, it depends on each individual, and if we really idolize a team and have full confidence in that team then there's no harm in placing a bet because I think maybe that includes self-appreciation, as long as we're ready to lose. because if you are not prepared to lose then the possibility of something bad happening will happen.

Even though I have a team that I believe in and am a champion for, I don't dare to risk it all, maybe that will be done by those who really have complete trust and because of their love for the team they are champions for, I hope they can take the risk. what will happen when you risk everything and what happens is defeat. I don't dare to take risks myself.

[EluguHcman]

I can not place such bet in such unexcited period when the match has already started and if by means of referee decides to blow the final whistle then it is assumed game over that that just seems my loosing.

I would neither not say that your friend is a foolish one. Gambling is risky game and it is usually said that no risk no rewards and do away with your fears now and face the dividend of the joy tomorrow.
If you realizes the lucky guesture in gambling then you OP would under that just 5 minutes especially in a sport game is enough to do wonders that 1 hour can not perform.
So I will say your guy was just a risk bearer, not that he believed his team will win but he believed that nothing is impossible to achieve if only you understand your potential capacities.

I think we have all seen that it also cannot be separated from luck, don't be too confident that the team we love will win, especially against a strong team, don't bet all the money just because of love for the team itself, I also have a team that I like Even other people too, but you have to see which team they play against and how strong their strength is, Liverpool is not an easy opponent, so even though Manchester United won yesterday, they also won narrowly and this cannot be separated from their luck and enthusiasm.

So your friend was just lucky to get it, even though if on the other hand Manchester United didn't play that hard, maybe they wouldn't have succeeded in winning it. You need to work hard until the end of the match so that Manchester United deserves to win it, but that doesn't mean we have to be confident that the team we love will win, especially in important quarter-final or semi-final round, I prefer to bet safely rather than looking for risks just because I love the team I like, don't like the football club team too much, the main thing is that as long as we are still gamblers, look at the opportunities, not just love the team. I personally wouldn't do something stupid like that

[Queentoshi]

Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

It is a blind trust for some supporters of some teams, while to some others it is from the success rate of their club and from the results that they have delivered before, that is what has borne that believe. If the team I support has had a series of successful games, winning many and not losing, I'll be very confident to stake lots of money on them to win the next game to play because I believe that the players have the mentality to win and are serious about it and even when they are losing they can turn things around and still end up either winning the game or worst case scenario ending the game in a draw. If the team I support has shown performance that is not consistent, I will not take such a risk on them.

When it comes to gambling, you have to have mind if not, you won't be able to survive a lot of things. you need to believe in yourself, and any decision you are making concerning any game, you have to have positive attitude towards it and understand what you are saying There are some clubs that you will have so much confidence to bet on, and that happens to me, especially when Manchester City is playing. I am also full of confidence that they will win. And that is when you will get tempted to stake and most times it works because some clubs like Manchester City are good and I can attest to how Manchester City has given me a lot of wins. and there are games I don't even try because predicting them will be difficult. especially Manchester United vs. Liverpool. I was surprised to have seen Manchester United win. I don't enjoy staking games like this. I don't recommend people move while gambling.

There could be more to him than meets the eye, some people are gifted and they can sometimes predict very right, I am not a huge fan of gambling but outside of gambling my beliefs have gotten me to the state that I am in right now.

I have people around me that are now scared of my will and beliefs, because everything I turned out to be was something I used to tell them when I had nothing, I mean I ended up doing it like I said I would.

It's hard for things to go your way when you have nothing to show for it, even people around you won't believe it until you prove them wrong.

I just happen to believe that gambling will never go the way I wanted, because I see gambling as a way of the fools, its easy to be an idiot in gambling than anything else, I like real things and outcome than something that relies on total luck.

[Oasisman]

Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

Yeah! your friend just did it and there are still a few who'd do it. We've seen a lot of crazy news about gambling addictions and stuff like this in the internet, so this is nothing new though and again anyone can do it. Regardless of the outcome this kind of move is a foolish one. I mean, who would want to get broke in an instant just because he got provoked by someone to go ahead and put his life savings if he really trust the team he's betting with.
Your friend might gonna do it again and on the next or a couple of try guaranteed he'd get broke in an instant. So, if you really care for your friend, don't provoke his confidence again.

[Coin_trader]

shocking to me he went on and staked 5k on man United win to qualify which was about 7 odds at that time, and yeah it turned out right for him. Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

I won’t consider this a foolish move if he confident that his bet will win despite the odds and the result becomes in favor of him. It only shows that he made the right decision on trusting his money to his team due to his analysis skills towards the club he made.

The only thing I find it foolish is the amount he bet on a gambling. No one should be all-in especially if the amount involved is life savings. On gambling like this which is analysis is involved I’m not surprised that people will usually have a solid confidence on their bet because they their own reason that backed it.

Every gambler, especially those who like sports betting, definitely has favorite team that they really rely on and no matter who the match will take place with, the belief in winning on the team they like will always be there.
But not many can really have success with full confidence like that because many strong and big teams fail to win matches and many draws occur which makes gamblers lose their bets.
I also have favorite team that I always believe will win in every match, but betting doesn't always mean winning because draw is also often an option when betting money.
Bet if only rely on faith and trust, then in the end defeat cannot be avoided.

From what you said regarding you friend, I think he was really lucky because it is clear that Manchester United won only because they were lucky and this is the surprise in football match.
I sure there will be many football fans who are shocked and can't believe the victory that Manchester United got over Liverpool.

[Hispo]

First off. That thing you friend did was quite reckless, in my opinion.
I would never be that reckless or trust that much on a football team, never.
One must be a bettor who has some logic behind the bets and also keeping in mind one cannot bet only based on the raw feelings of passion one could have for an specific team.
If your friend continues a long that path, I am afraid it could be just matter of time before he starts to lose important amounts of money to the sport book and other gamblers with a better common sense than his.
Also, my national team does not have as much cache and good curriculum as many otherd around the world, so I would not trust them with much money if I decided to bet on their favor. All of thst goes against my common sense.

[Davidvictorson]

I cannot stake my on my club because I bet from a place of knowledge and informed decision. If I know that my club has been preforming poorly lately in the league and have been on a losing streak it would be foolishness to bet on them when I know that their opponents are better and are most likely to win.

Your friend made a very wrong decision even though the outcome was in his favour. It was just a chance occurrence that whose probability of repetition is 1 in a 100 cases.

[Wind_FURY]

OP, confidence in the bet because "it's your club" doesn't change the probability of winning towards the gambler's favor. I'm very confident that if your friend makes the same "confident" bet everytime his club has a game, he would lose all the betting capital he has because the odds are already made to give the edge towards the sports betting service/casino. There might be some mistakes sometimes, but that doesn't happen often. Why do casinos and sports betting services continue to exist? Because they make money from plebs like us. It's a good business.
