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

[Poker Player]

Even though your friend got away with a big win through Man United's comeback, it's always a bad idea to put too much trust in a team based on your feelings because comebacks mostly depend on luck and more factors could be involved behind their win.

You don't simply go all in on the team you follow, if you do go that route you'll later learn the reality and fade your favorite team when it matters.

As we would say in poker, he made a bad move that worked out well. Gambling everything on his team for emotional reasons when the odds were against him by 7 to 1 is clearly a bad play. Also, from what the OP describes I imagine that that 5k he bet was money he needed, probably all he had in savings, not extra money you can afford to lose, which is how it should be done.

I tell you how those kinds of stories end up, with the OP's friend repeating the play and losing it all. And the next time probably borrowing to lose it all. Badly, they usually end very badly.

It simply matters to be on the winning sides this season. Currently, my favorite team doesn't have the strong balance of enabling winnings but it becomes obvious to place wager on them once they're not having weaknesses and unable to humbled their opponents. Everyone wants winnings for their clubs because most of them have pushed the trigger to place wager on them due to the love and support they have for the club. Over confidence in a club, probably the pointed club is having their best performance and they don't relent from making the long good moves.

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?

I can tell if this that yes alot of people usually do this and it's not like they aren't matured or responsible enough to do so but they did that because,they had so much passion and love for their Fans and also they do that cause they can as well afford to loose that said amount.
But this is the reality of life that you should be discipline in your dealings so it's not advisable to put over confidence to this as most times it might results in something not confidential anymore.By the way ,me I don't see it as a foolish move,but hehad so much faith in his Fans which has led him stake such amount .

I bet for my favorite club but not too big I bet as much as I can afford to lose because I can never guarantee which team will win I like a club but there is no guarantee that the team will win. so we should always be sensitive when it comes to gambling so that we can accept losses very easily otherwise they keep giving us mental pressure. so i wll tell that it is really foolish to bet big amount for fan club with confidence

That particular game between Manchester United and Liverpool result was so unpredictable, if you're friend had placed a bet in favour of Manchester United to win that game then he must be a genius to come to that conclusion. When people become too emotionally attached to the club they are fanning, they do things without emotional intelligence and that they say is the beauty of the game. For me that was not too much of a wise decision your friend took, but however this is gambling, the higher the risk the higher the reward, and so far he has benefited from the risk he took.

I mean a lot of people lost money on that game for sure, there is no doubt that people did not expected United to win, and yet they did and that's a great thing to see, I feel like that's important for a lot of people. I believe that we are going to see a lot of results similar to that, and in the meantime we should be probably expecting to not have that type of games all that commonly.

I do not really put it all in, never have, not going to do it for any game at all, doesn't matter how big or small the chances are. Just this season, we have seen Bayern lose to a third division team, and beat a bundesliga team 8-1, no idea how they could do it on the same season but it happens and we should be not really all that interested in how that works.

Yes, I believe that their are many gamblers out there that can do that, as long as they have confidence in the team they are supporting to win the game, but the major problem attached to taking such risk is that, mostly, when you stake such huge amount of money like that, it's always a money you can't afford to lose, so if it goes wrong, like the results doesn't goes your way, it's affect you as a person psychologically, so it's very important you stake with an amount you can afford to lose, so that psychologically, even though it doesn't goes your way it wouldn't affect you.

Not really, I am not a big fan of placing large bets on a single game. Betting 5k is a lot of money and there is no certainty that our bet is actually going to pay off. In this position I would always prefer to bet 1k each on 5 different matches instead of putting it all on one game. Spreading out my bets helps me a lot to reduce my overall risk and I think that it made me more money in the long run. I can understand your friend that has a strong conviction about a game and wants to profit from it. But when it comes to my hometown, I always feel a bit biased and don't know if I fully evaluate all the risks correctly. When placing most of our money on one single bet, it only takes one failed match to wipe out our bankroll. In the end this is something everybody needs to decide for himself, you are either comfortable taking these high risks or not. For me, the risks are bit too high and I prefer to accept lower returns with also lower chances of losing my bankroll.

Your friend is lucky because he is not ashamed in front of you and many people, as you can see? just because he wants to prove to other people what team will going to win, He's going to bet such a huge amount? Imagine the risk of what he did, one wrong move could have lost his money in just a seconds but it looks like he's lucky because he won, he's proven to you that the team he's proud of is right,
But if the team he is proud of loses, your friend will face a big problem, because of his overconfident, he will lose a lot of money and he will be ashamed of you and the other people who are waiting for him to win or not.

[slapper]

Betting on your team just cuz you love 'em? Ok, gutsy move, but let's be real - that's more like walking into a hurricane hoping for sunshine.  Your buddy dropping 5k on Man U down 0:2 to Liverpool? Was that a smart gamble, or just blind luck?

Look, we all love a good underdog story. Believing in your team is part of being a fan. But betting the house on it? That's not strategy, that's chasing a thrill. That rush when an insane bet actually somehow pays out...it's addictive. It's NOT about being some tactical genius

Of course, some folks have money to burn, and if they get that high from the risk, power to 'em. In the bigger picture, betting is all about that unpredictable chaos we crave as fans, just concentrated into a ridiculously risky moment. Was it foolish? Probably, but hey, sometimes football (and life) makes zero sense, right?

[teamsherry]

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.

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.

Yeah he is not a core gambler, he just did that out of pure support and confidence in his team which normally would be against professional gambling ethics that would say you shouldn't gamble with over confidence cause you can as well lose your funds and over confidence can cause you to stake higher than you are normally supposed to, but yeah in his case its just a matter of little cash 5000 in my currency woidl just be around 5$ or close to that. So I think think he wasn't notorious at all just over confident and sraked to prove himself.

I have a message for your friend, let him know that is is lucky this time around, if he try to use this same strategy again he will lose his money, people tend to get used to a strategy that worked for them once, they always believe that it could work again.
In fact, there is no such thing as strategy in gambling, if you can believe this then you will be a smart gambler, what are you strategizing on? Luck? Who can? There is no man that has total control on luck, such power never exists.
All you have to do is your best and leave the rest, and thats by risking what you can afford to lose, do not rely on any strategy because none existed in this gambling space, all you have to count on is your luck and you can lose, thats why you need to risk very small amount.

[GiftedMAN]

Personally I will say that the only reason that will make me to stake very high for my team to win is their performance in their previous games, your friend was lucky not to have lost his bet because the performance of Manchester United isn't good at the moment and the top three teams in the EPL is very ready to beat any team they come across because none of the teams want to drop points nor lose out of the title race. I am a Manchester United fan but I would rather bet on Liverpool to win if it was a league match than Manchester United because they have a better squad and a better performance this season than Manchester United. Just a moment op, did your friend actually place a bet on Manchester United to win the game or his bet was for Manchester United to qualify to the next round because the game ended in a 2:2 draw before they went for extra time.

Yes, taking such risk that can't be accepted by many gamblers because some of them aren't managed the risk and place a bet for a big money. They thinks that if that is their team, they should gives a big portion to bets so that's why some of them place a higher bet than before. That will be okay if they can accepts the risk and not complain to anyone if their team lost but most of them can't do that and will be angry seeing their team lost. It's all about how you can prevent the big lose by always limiting your money to place bet and only use the money you can afford. That's what you must do if you want to playing gambling, especially in the sports betting because the tempting to win big will always be there. If you can be careful, you will lose much money that you can't imagine.

0:2 and putting up 5k on that point? Thats suicide for sure and even if you do say that you are really that a fan of Man U but it wouldnt really be ideal that you would really be making out such kind of bets. Its never been worth and its never been wise unless if you are really that having an intent on burning that 5k in thin air without worrying then its just fine but if you are expecting something
a win and you do go all in because of soo much trust then this would really be a problem. If it turns out for you to win then thats lucky but if not then you would really be ended up on great disappointment and frustration on which these emotions will really be the main thing that you would really be able to feel out instantly.

Risking it all or staking it all in gambling is a bad idea.

I don't want to know what you are risking all your money on, either on yoit favourite club or sports, its a bad idea to risk everything you have, most importantly on something you dont have total control over.

Gambling is all about luck, I dont know why anyone will risk all they have on such thing, its obvious that losing is going to be way more easier in this than winning, all the signs are written over gambling but stupid people still think otherwise.

I will never do such a thing for the love of any sports or team, I crave for gambling entertainment and that shouldn't cost me or anyone too much money, I don't gamble to have a life changing opportunity, I gamble to make few bucks and also have some great time.

May be your friend was just lucky and won the round. It doesn't always happen like that.
May be your friend knew something about the match that others didn't know.
May be your friend is an expert when it comes to sports betting.
It can be anything but one thing that is firm is that the odds are not in our favor all the time.

Your friend is a crazy man; no sane person will do that unless he is really that confident that his favorite team will win. Personally, I would not do that since it is very risky. Even if the opponent of my favorite team or club is the lowest seed, I still wouldn't do that. Maybe for a lower bet, I would, but with that amount of money? I would probably just keep the money. I think that is the essence of gambling; you do not know what the outcome of your bet will be; you just need to keep faith and hope that your bet will hit. This gives us the thrill and nervousness since a lot of money is on the line, and that is how some of the gamblers view gambling as fun. 

Anyway, congrats to your friend for winning. I hope that he won't be greedy and do it again  . Just be careful next time. If that bet did not hit, he might be depressed right now. Lucky for him, the team won.

Always gamble by utilising your head, not your heart. Your club doesn’t give a damn about you so don’t risk your finances betting on them to win.

Sure, support your team, be passionate but don’t regularly bet on them to win just because of your love for them, it’s a guaranteed way to lose money.

No buddy, actually this has never happened to me, but it has happened many times in which I have full confidence in the matches, even though I won the betting with very small odds. Because most of those results can be predicted in advance, like an weak team against with a best team. Moreover, I have never given such a big risk due to my overconfidence, due to overconfidence I took risks but it was with small funds, and lost them.
Now let's talk about your friend. Even then your friend was win that bet I will not gonna say it is a good Idea, Overconfidence is never be good things and of course, in the sector of gambling, its becomes more dangerous.

There is something that I want to let us know especially way that is into gambling because when you are a gambler you will know that gambling is unpredictable that is why there is no Club that you can betfully that they will win their match with the confidence without having that fear of losing because you know that you may have the full confidence that this particular Club will win the match at the end of the match another club who you think that we lose win the match that is why it is called prediction because nobody knows what the match will result out at the ending
