Sports betting for reality not club affection

[Sim_card]

Most times we are caught in between placing our bets on our favourite teams to win and not there present form, this action according to analysis shows that it's one of the reasons some persons don't win a sport bet, no matter how hard they try, a team that's not in form or getting the results shouldn't be on your sports betting slip, because they might continue the poor run of form and hurt your ticket, a friend once adviced me never to put my favourite team on my ticket, unless they are in form, am a Manchester United fan but most times I bet against them as long as my ticket is concerned I don't have a favourite team.

I agree with you that when it comes to betting, one should not bet because his favorite team is playing, when he knows that they are in a poor form, believing that they can win the game. That is a wrong bet, and this is where some gamblers go wrong, and they will bet on their team that is weak to win a strong team. This is why you need to be real by following up the teams current records and past results on head to head of the two teams involved, and the current form of the players and clubs, to avoid you from making a blind bet.

There are ways to support your team but not to the point that you need to lose money.

I cannot allow passion lead me astray. Betting is about practicality and not passion for the team.

If there is a crowdfunding for the team to fix buy new players, pay the coach, renovate the stadium, buy some equipment, I will wholehearted be involved in it. I will champion that cause but when it comes to sports betting, I won't put my money on my team when their performance have been abysmal.

I will always put my money where my mouth is and not where my heart it. My heart will lie to me and fail me as it has done many times. I don't trust it .

I do agree that if you are looking for something for your own club and you wish that they win and you bet that, but they lose, that is a bit your own mistake, doesn't matter if they were the favourites or not, that is not the point here at all. I think it is quite obvious that you need to end up with something much better with time by trying your best, and you would only be able to do that if you know what you are doing, and the best that we could do at this point would be just focusing on other teams.

I think it is clear that we are not going to end up with anything that will take time, and we shouldn't really consider the situation changing all that much, we just need to focus on what we could do on the long run without a doubt.

There’s a lot of bettor who are loyal to their favorite team regardless of their current status and we cannot blame them for betting with they as they have more confidence with their team even if its not in a good condition. Personally, I will not compromise my money with my favorite team especially if they are at the lower standing and if they are going against the stronger team, though I will still support them but placing a bet might not be an option for me.

I mean there's some bias but definitely not because of me loving the team one-sidedly, it's just that their performance has been so dominating in the past tournaments that I always bet for them regardless of their opponent. Honestly, if all you're going about when sports betting is because you want to "support" your team, then that's the complete opposite of what you're supposed to do. Heck, they're not even related at all even.

If you're going to bet on something, think about it and not feel about it lol. Even guessing might be a lot better than just letting your emotions get the best of you.

Any gambler who is gambling on club is just wasting his or her time. As far as I know gambling is all about making wright choice between possibilities and capabilities and not just gambling on sentiment. Whenever you want to secure more winnings you must totally remove your mind from your club otherwise you run out of lost in several occasions. I myself don't even put my club in my ticket except for the one am very sure they will deliver

People betting on sports based on emotion are perhaps the most major source of income for casinos. If fans of a team that know alot about their team were also betting against their team if they knew there was a weakness or for example were betting just on goals instead of their team's win, then they would have been having much better chances to win. Instead I know many people that just bet on their team winning whenever they have a good feeling. Well, it's not realistic to always expect your team to win.

The realistic outcomes is to also expect losses sometimes, especially against other teams that are bigger. But people too biased towards their team will often not consider this option, much to their determent though because it only just puts them to a disadvantage compared to other gamblers especially also as the odds are against their favor.

This discussion keeps coming up in the gambling board, although it is worded differently but the question remains the same.
As a Gambler and a Die-Hard Fan of a Club Would you Bet Against your Club
Feelings on losing the match and the bet
Can you stake it all put of over confidence in your club

Bet with your head and not your heart. The latter is never reliable and will fail you. Prediction in sports betting are made from detailed analysis. If your club does not seem to be the better side of that fixture, its not betrayal to bet against them. If you’re a emotional person and can’t bet against your club even though it’s obvious they are the losing side, I suggest you avoid staking those games.

This is very true. Emotions can very easily creep into our decisions in betting. I'm currently in a English Premier League pool and I'm an Arsenal fan. I do not think I've ever bet against Arsenal since the beginning of the season, but I have repeatedly predicted City or Liverpool to lose or draw even when all the odds suggested the will not.

Best option will be to not get on your favorite team or their rivals.

Emotions are everywhere but I think they are more triggered when something which is adrenaline rush is involved like for example in betting. Odds in gambling can sometimes be deceiving, so it's fine to not follow them sometimes and go instead on what our heart says. I didn't say mind because it's more science-based and the result of our research will likely be matched by the odds that are shown on our screens. Can't understand the last thing that you said there.

So, if we won't bet on them, then to whom we will place our bet? I think it's telling that we won't play gambling at all. Gambling is still about taking risks. This is the only way for us to earn a profit if we are lucky or knowledgeable.

Betting on your favorite team when they are underperformed will only make you loss money, in terms of betting you wanna win so still betting on  your favorite even in terms of them losing doesn't make any sense, you loss or win the players get paid while you become disturbed. In essence let be free and open minded while betting or gambling.

Emotions control our actions sync with our minds. The heart has no role to play when it comes to our actions or thoughts, it an illusion. If we wanna have control of our emotions so it doesn't lead us then  train and build your minds. Emotional people don't build anything always work in stance of decision.

Honestly being sentimental won't favour one in gambling. When playing gambling one needs to be real and predict accordingly base on the performance of the teams. When supporting a team to win in gambling just because it a favourite team and not by the performance of the team it just an easy way to lose and with this character it means the person is not just ready to win gamble.  I know gambling is unpredicted but betting accordingly their are high  chances of winning because the knowledge that people have about a team is a good advantage for winning.

When playing a game it is important to have a better understanding by knowing the stronger  team , though it my not a guarantee to win a   game but predicting based on the performance for the team matters so much.

Exactly, that's why I dont believe in betting in your favorite or idolized team, I get it everyone has its own favoritism and fan when it comes to sports but I think those feelings should be separated when it comes to betting, because the topic here is money idolizing your team even seeing that they are at disadvantage is not a good thing, if you will only going to support the team you idolize then you shouldn't even place a bet if you know they are disadvantage, be rational when it comes to gambling, step aside your feelings because it may sounds bad, but money is money you risk your money to bet on a team then atleast pick or bet on the team or player that has the higher chances of winning so that you will be able to win the bet, imagine you bet in a several match where the team you idolize has the low chance of winning then you are just wasting your money.

That would be a crazy action you do since not all the time our favorite team would have great chance to win since for sure there are more better than them. Also there are instances needed to consider since there are a lot of factors need to watch especially the teams stats and rosters condition. That's why before betting I always try to get some news about the team since for this we can get the good insights about which team is good to bet since for this we could able to get more higher chance to win. Although we can't guarantee to win at least we use our brains or critical thinking to do good bets rather than being a fanatic which gives us huge risk to lose our money and also which doesn't give anything good experience especially if we don't learn for those mistakes we made.

ThIs is a very realistic view of how gambling should be at times, the biases we do apply to Gambling sometimes ends up to our own detriment because we neglected reality and followed our emotions, I mean a team that's weak is weak not minding how much you love them, your love for your team shouldn't blind you from seeing the reality in the fact thst they can sometimes be too weak to handle a particular team except you are Gambling for fun and you are sure you are not going to have any emotional attachment then you can make such choices not minding the form and strength of the team.

Loosing your bet because of such will definitely be a reoccurrence until you accept the fact that your biases shouldn't be your stands for which you will make your predictions less you may end up loosing more funds or better still when gambling avoid your favourite team totally that way you will be able to avoid certain losses due to the picks on your bet slip.

Sometimes we are faced with a choice where we have to bet on our favorite club or not at all, especially when the condition of our favorite team is not as optimal as we expected, it will be a difficult choice, where do we need to bet against them? or not at all.
I myself think that if my favorite team is not performing well and I see that there is potential that the team will lose, I will skip the bet and choose to bet on another match. Because in my personal opinion, it's just uncomfortable if you bet against your own favorite team (even though I've done it before) but as much as possible I will avoid betting on it. It's true that when betting we need to separate feelings and logic, but that's just my personal preference.

In situations like this, a serious gambler will keep his emotions aside and still place his bets irrespective who is involved. OP is right, many gamblers complain of not winning their bets because they attach their emotions to virtually every games they play. Let me ask you a question. What if there is a very high chance that you are going to win your bet on the  game you are avoiding to place bets on simply because you cannot bet against your favourite team, when it is already clear that your favourite team was going to lose?
What if the chances of winning this one bet are higher than other bets?

There are many ways to show support for your club and betting against them will not stop them from losing. I have learnt a long time ago to always separate my emotions from business. I do not gamble often, but when I set out to gamble,  I mean business and I will not allow club affection ruin my chances.

[YOSHIE]

am a Manchester United fan but most times I bet against them as long as my ticket is concerned I don't have a favourite team.

Of course we all have a favorite football club, that's for sure, but the club as a support is not used as a source of income in gambling, for example fans of the Man United and Arsenal clubs, If we stick to our favorite club, of course it could be fatal, our club could lose, unless it's possible against a club that doesn't have any weight.

I often place bets on sports, especially football, of course I have a favorite club, but I have never been fanatical about betting my money on my favorite club, I have to assess the strength of the opposing club, because it is gambling, not bigotry, consideration and professionalism in gambling is better, rather than having to rely on a blunt knife.

[coin-investor]

... a friend once adviced me never to put my favourite team on my ticket, unless they are in form, am a Manchester United fan but most times I bet against them as long as my ticket is concerned I don't have a favourite team.

You can bet on your favorite team if your team is capable of pulling an upset I have done this on my favorite basketball team and they sometimes upset a strong team, the only time that I do not bet on my favorite team is when they have a very slim chance of beating the opposing team, like if their strong or star players are out of the game.
But there are blind followers of a team and they will bet even a small amount as a show of support, I don't think I can do that even if I have excess money if there's no chance of winning then I let it pass, I have no obligation to bet and lose money I'm not that rich.

If your favorite team is not in their best performs, you will not have a chance to wins and that can makes you wastes your money. If you see that conditions, it's better you leave that match and just watch it so you don't lose your money. No matter if you are fan or not, you must be wise when you wants placing the bet so you can place a bet in the right team. That's why you must analyze every time you want to place a bet so you don't pick the wrong team and have a chance to wins. The team that is under perform can't gives you the chance to wins instead will lose your money so you don't have force yourself to place the bet for that team. You can wait for a while and checks the other match and maybe you will gets other team that's on their best perform. If we can be wise when selecting the team, we will gets a chance to wins.

This is the mistake most people make in betting, don't bet with such emotion that your club that your that's not in their peak will win when you already know that it is impossible for such to happen as you planned, gambling should not be a game of favouritism, being a fan of a particular football team does not matter, what matters is current form the team you are selecting to win a bet.
That's why I don't bet on my team, I only bet on other teams, even though am convinced that my favourite team will win, I wouldn't still bet on them because it will look like am supporting a team at the same time waiting for my bet to end as I expected it and thats not bet in reality, as a gambler there are things you should avoid doing and those things are chosing a team based on you affiliation with them, lookout for current performance, league position, number of games won before you can bet.
