My favorite loser

[alani123]

I'd like to introduce you to Stefanos Tsitsipas.

He's a top tennis player from Greece. He has been praised for achieving high ranking spots in international competitions at a fairly young age. 
Funnily enough after his rise to stardom many issues arose also. Mr. Tsitsipas became notorious for one of his dogs injuring a child and him never acknowledging it or offering compensation, instead only battling the charge in court...

In the field Mr. Tsitsipas has been characterized as arrogant. Often seen throwing fits of rage, with his parents even being targets sometimes while attending his matches as part of the audience. Some in Greece have come to call him a textbook example of an arrogant rich boy. Because aside of his won rewards, through his upbringing his family was already quite wealthy.

Well, in terms of sport performance, while Tsitsipas is able to enter into top competitions, he almost always shies away from a top spot. Usually losing in semifinals or one of the steps close before reaching the final. For some reason he usually has bombastic performance when starting a match, but ends up losing in the end. I've been tracking his matches and betting against him. The odds are usually very favorable if you bet against him live, because he usually wins at the start only to lose the final sets.

Who knows, maybe one day Mr Tsitsipas will be able to calm his nerves, improve his attitude and finally conquer at least one tournament. But until then, betting against him can be quite profitable, and perhaps even pleasurable given his arrogance. I don't say this in a bad way by the way, I truly wish him well, but it's sad to see a young man shout at his parents for simply being angry.

Here's my most recent bet with him:



Do you also have any favorite losers to bet against for profit?

If that's the behavior of the loser being so arrogant I wouldn't bet him as my favorite, and never in my gambling activities got favoritism on particular player who lose badly.
When I bet for sports betting, it's only for the game and not for specific individual who performs the sports. I care about their emotions, they're same humam like us, a special being who strive harder in their career.
So here in gambling it's more like sportsmanship, if win then you're lucky them if not well we should accept the reality that it's not our time of fortune.

Stefanos Tsitsipas, He stands out as one of Greece's finest in tennis and attaining such a notable rank at his age is no mean feat. While Tsitsipas demonstrates exceptional skill by reaching the top levels of competition, his inability to clinch victory in the final stages might point towards psychological hurdles. Indeed, going against him in bets, as you suggested, could be a lucrative move owing to this inconsistency in performance that he portrays.

I hope Tsitsipas can control his emotions,, changing his mindset, and eventually winning a grand slam. It's always gratifying when young sportsmen find success in their personal and professional lives; however, until that happens, it seems quite sensible to bet against him given his erratic play. Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding Tsitsipas, much appreciated.

If you can capitalize on that arrogance that leads to a midrange up to end game poor performance, I don't think that it's going to be worth disregarding that fact, I mean OP already said it in the thread that it's a good thing to bet against him because you know that he will eventually make a really poor performance before the game ends thus netting you an easy win, if I know that for a fact, I would love that person that is making me a lot of money, that's it. Regarding his behavior, he doesn't even know that we exist and any kind of anger or ire in his arrogance isn't going to change his behavior towards the people that's around him and the society that he belongs into, I guess some people are really just like that and that they hate being a good person or they weren't raised in a good environment, only way that they can change is if they want to do the changes themselves.

There is money to be made here, the odds are always better on such people but it is a smart move betting on this tennis player, I can't help but do the same, it is not as if i will be rewarded for choosing some who is cool headed, when it comes to money you need to be smart.

If someone's temper or anger issue is how I can make money then why not? It was never meant to be easy anyway, and knowing his to be this arrogant is good for my money, who cares? We are all humans, I don't expect everyone to be cool-headed, some will surely be arrogant.

I don't have a favorite loser to bet on like OP because I don't have the time to dig into someone else's life and behaviour, I am more of a casino game gambler I like slots and few others and the only sports game i like is football.

[swogerino]

In tennis there is no favorite loser,in fact in tennis we have quite a very long story of odds like that of this guy that have lost a lot of people bets,personally I have lost huge amounts as I usually copy bets of high rollers and I also try to emulate the maximum I can bet and as such I keep losing.Smart guys are people like you who get to bet on the underdog and if one underdog wins it can save you about 10 other bets with small bets,even more than that,yet the reality is that very few people keep on betting on the underdogs and seeing this bet of yours why not trying to bet on all underdogs since most of the games come not as expected and maybe we can win big with this strategy,I am going to try all the weekly bonus betting on heavy underdogs in tennis and see how it goes.

That was Chelsea, though I won't denote them to be a favourite losing team for me but in this just about to be concluded EPL season Chelsea was one of those team's I find ease to bet against in the beginning and some parts of the mid season in the EPL, cause they had a very poor start and it was as though they've already lost a match before it begun, but thanks to the improvement they have recorded recently.

In the case of Mr Tsitsipas it is what any gambler will be more than glad to take advantage of in getting a bet win as nobody really loves losing their bets even under fun. I am beginning to have the hunch that sports men with attitudinal problems finds difficulty in reaching to the top of their games in all competitions in their career. Not that they lack the connoisseur needed to excel excellently in that field but they for no just unexplainable reason struggle to reach the peak.

Maybe, Mr Tsitsipas needs to see this op about him here and make some redresses to his lifestyle as I would be more than glad to see him succeed beyond his standing records, because from what have read about him he's a fine tennis player.

[traderethereum]

I don't have any favorite losers to bet but maybe I will pick randomly for the player to select for my bet. That's fun as I just select that player and see my lucky comes or not without thinks about wins or lose.
If I lose, I can accepts that as I realizes that's my fault not to analyze the match before but that's enough for me. But if I wins, I considers that's because my luck helps me to wins.
I don't thinks about many things and just pick what my hearts say and lets it happens. After all, I just spend my free time by doing that so that will no needs to takes too long to place a bet

[Assface16678]

Well that's a smart way of betting, I mean you bet in a matches and pick the winner or the side that you think will win based on your analysis to a certain person or player, and one of the example of that is what you have said in your topic, that you are betting in the opposite player that will up against the loser you are saying, you make a smart bet for that, and for that you have earn quite an amount which proves that a better could have any useful information of either the team or the players, by using statistics, news or analysis to a specific player or teams you can have the hint of who will most likely to win in a match and I think that is the smartest and strategic way of betting, not just betting just because it is your favorite team or what, bet according to your information's and data's.

[Sunderland]

My favorite loser is a club from England in the Championship div now, the club name is Sunderland, yep that is my username.
Many people ask why your username is Sunderland and not another big and famous club from England? because this club has often given me money by betting against them since 2013 lol.

They rarely win in a row (Asian Handicap) and their performance has always been unstable since 10 years ago.
Betting against a favorite loser like this must use the Martingale system and not with the Money Line but always use Asian Handicap.

He needs a behavioural coach if he wants to pursue his dream of becoming a champion. He will eventually learn this when he has too many losses and people close to him tell him what's wrong with his game. However, there are some players who are very hyped about what they do, so they become very temperamental. They cannot play without being hyped; they like to play angry, and they want to be notorious for this.

A few years ago, I had a boxer who was my favourite loser, and I kept betting on him because of his temperament. That boxer was Mayorga. He is notorious for trash-talking his opponents, and he ends up losing the fight; he is one of boxing's bad boys.

We may try to see it from the aspect of making profits from it, but there is no one who would have been known for being a loser and you discover that such player is still being used continuously in a match, no one will like to go for a poor performance in gambling even though they know that such player would fail, then everyone will bet same and we already know the outcome to such game already, even the best professional players do make mistakes and fail to deliver up to expectations, yet we bet on either winning or loosing on them because of the certain level of confidence we have developed on them.

[pawanjain]

That's very wicked of you to track a player just so that you can bet against him and profit out of it.
It's funny and wise at the same time. So far I haven't known any such kind of a loser because I haven't had such a perspective yet.
But yes, this looks good from profit making point of view.

[Eternad]

Any NBA team with Lebron is my favorite losers. I’m not a hater of Lebron but I love betting against his teams since there’s a lot of cry baby supporters and bandwagon whenever they enter on playoffs.

His team usually valued more that makes opponents team have higher odds that is perfect for betting. Lebron team always which is perfect to capitalize especially when they are facing teams that low key solid team.

I have never noticed Stefanos Tsitsipas maybe because I am not a fan of tennis and he has not also won a major competition that would have brought his name to the spotlight in my location. But I assume that he becomes furious when he is losing or not having a good game. This means his anger issue will not show up if he is winning. Then the solution is for him to have a straight win or learn how to control his anger. His arrogance might not also be the reason for his misfortune because many great players were also proud. But in my culture, if you disrespect your parents, it is believed that it could bring bad luck, maybe it might be the reason for his near-win syndrome. And there is a verse in the holy Bible which states that pride leads to fall.

Chelsea and Manchester United were my best losers because they have been very inconsistent but the former has improved greatly. United still remains on my list.

I don't see it as wicked or wishing the player bad, it's just a betting strategy that has been working for him.

[SamReomo]

Personally I don't have a favorite loser but the concept seems too good to me, and I might pick someone as my favorite loser in coming times.

I place my bets by doing research on teams, of course I prefer to bet against the weak teams because they most probably lose against better teams unless there's hidden match fixing behind the scenes.

Most of the times I bet on cricket matches as those can give very good wins if you do your research well, but if you don't do research and pick a team as your favorite then chances of losing may be higher.

Very often when it comes to those at the very top of the performance curve, the difference between athletes is not dictated by physical ability but by their mentality, so this athlete with his behavior is showing very clearly that while he may have what it is necessary to become a great player, he keeps sabotaging himself, and until he is open enough to admit fault, he will never change and will become a target for skilled gamblers like you, which has found out this tendency of his to keep accumulating profits by betting against him.

It's not the money actually, what I mean his attitude that I don't want to consider him as my favorite. But for the sake of winning streak, betting would be potential for wins upon seeing this guy loses along the way. That's purely gambling, so I don't really take it so serious on him and what's important to me is the amount to be won for my bets.

[Frankolala]

I don't have a permanent favorite loser, what I do is that in every season, I do observe the weakest club that always finds it difficult to win their games and bets against them because there is a high probability that they will lose the match. Initially when this season started after watching Chelsea's performance with bad results, I always bet against them, but that stopped after they started winning.

I decided to start betting on Manchester united as my favorite loser but I lost in their last match because they won the game. I am a football fan and loves strong football clubs.

[BABY SHOES]

Chelsea and Manchester United as the favorite team of losers sometimes this team is always promising but what we saw some time before is even losing and we lost the bet while Chelsea is now better when this team is bet in the last 3 matches it won but for Manchester United not yesterday's match missed to bet because it knew the results would be bad it was not.

Many people ask why your username is Sunderland and not another big and famous club from England? because this club has often given me money by betting against them since 2013 lol.

Finally can also calm down to hear your story why bitcointalk username Sunderland is a small team but you have an interesting impression first.
