What category would you classify such bettor?

[coolcoinz]

I'd classify him as stupid
Just think about it for a moment.

You're betting on 7 goals or more, so check how many last matches in the league had 7 goals. I'd say 1 in 50? Probably even less than that.
In the recent Euro qualifiers the highest score was probably Germany -Scotland with 6 goals - still not 7. You just don't get that in high level games.

In as much as we do not know the bettors mind, i can not judge him to say he is greedy but instead I will say that he is a risk bearer in gambling.

Yes and sometimes I go so far to pick games with the highest odds while criticizing myself like... How do you think this highily risk game is going to play? Then I still say to myself that... I am literally out to pick this as a challenge so if it plays, I win and if it does not, I loose.

And because I understand the game is almost 99% impossible to play, I always bet it with a very little amount so that I can just laugh over it after the game fails.
And when it plays, I don't only profit little as my betted amount knowing that if it plays then I am cashing out bigly  due to the high odds.

So to me, the better is just a risk bearer and not greedy.

 I came across a bettors ticket on the media so I decided to raise a discussion with it here in the forum, well some people in the comment section rained abuse on the bettor for making such bet, some think he's greedy there were others who think he's a risk taker, while some still said he's very unlucky. In my own point of view,  judging from the image above it's either the bettor is greedy or lack good strategy, why I think he's greedy is because, if you check the odds properly you'll notice that the bettor is very greedy in selecting very risky odds and seems he wants to cash out very big by all means, well one can still say he's very unlucky, he took risk no doubt but that's a miscalculated risk out of greed to get bigger odds and make more profits. With that being said, what do you think is the perfect categories to classify such bettor?
Greedy
Risk taker
Lacks good strategy
Or he's just an unlucky bettor, give your reasons and why you think so.

I think it's not always easy to tell the difference between a risky player and a greedy one. Very often it can be the same player. Regarding the fact that he lacks a good strategy, then most likely he does not have any strategy at all, he just decided to test his luck. I don’t think that this man is greedy, I think that he decided to enter into all these bets for fun. Because there is a very small chance that all these matches will be played, usually greedy players do not do this. Or he’s just stupid, but if his bet worked out, what would they call him then?!

[btc_angela]

Well it could be a combination of the three, he or she wanted to take that big risk and look for big odds, and and at the same time lady luck didn't smile on him. And it's really hard to categorized any bettors to be honest, because we really don't know what's in their mind.

Usually this kind of bettors, their decision is clouded that they will just go and bet what they feel without looking at the odds or analysis of the game. Nevertheless, it's part of the game, we really don't know what the outcome is, and so we put some money on the line and take that risk.

[Juse14]

 I said the person was too greedy in gambling. But this is a normal thing and often happens among gamblers, especially those who cannot control themselves when gambling.

A person gambles and bets for pleasure, and generally a person will only feel pleasure only when he feels satisfied, and satisfaction in gambling is only when he gets a fairly large number of wins. and this is what makes them quite greedy gamblers. They are not satisfied with the results they have obtained, so they choose to continue the game, and even lose what they have obtained. And if they haven't won a big win, they will go back into their wallets to continue gambling and betting, until in the end they lose all the money they have.

greed can really make them stupid and reckless gamblers.

[Akbarkoe]

I think from the several categories you mentioned, this person falls into the category of gamblers who are greedy and also lack skills or lack a good strategy. it falls into the two categories you mentioned, this is because when someone becomes greedy in gambling, it tends to be quite difficult for them to be able to gamble calmly and be able to make good betting decisions. This person is too focused on achieving bigger profits than before, but because he is too greedy, this makes him crazy, to the point of forgetting and ignoring strategies for playing or betting.

The wins that a gambler has had, whether big or small, can influence someone to be even crazier when gambling or betting. Therefore, so that this doesn't happen in our gambling life, be smart in managing your emotions and don't get carried away easily by the atmosphere, keep acting normal and don't overdo it, because winning and losing in gambling is a normal thing. And one more thing, when you win in gambling, don't ever think that luck is on your side.

Risk taker
Lacks good strategy

This person is not just a risk taker but a high risk taker and a high risk taker like this will lose most of the time and will lose a lot of money. May he is an addict  or maybe he is a beginner who doesn't understand how this works. Or rather this may just be Drake. The ticket matches all of his characteristics - a high risk/high reward bettor and the outcome all ends in a loss. Who else if this isn't drake. Well it is a  risk that I cannot afford to take. I am too informed to do this.  

This kind of bet does not convey that the person is a gambling addict.  I agree with you that this person is somehow a high-risk taker, like those investors who invest on a one-time big-time investment that often results in a loss.  

Since in my opinion, the person is a high-risk taker, I would not take into account that the person is greedy.  Greedy people don't want to lose... all they want is to accumulate more no matter how small the accumulation is so greedy people might bet on a sure-win odds rather than in an odds with a small chance of winning.

Aside from being a high-risk taker, the person probably lack knowledge about the sports or he is betting blindly without taking into account the strength of each participating team.

[GreatArkansas]

Even if I am drunk, I can not be taking this type of odds. The lowest odd there is 5.2 which is very risky in sport betting. I can easily find 3 odd to choose in casinos but in sport betting, any odd getting higher than 2 is very risky. The chance to win just a single bet is small, not to talk of winning the whole bet. It is greediness.

Well, it's just clear this guy is risking small to win big, for sure he knows what he is doing because first the odds, it's more likely impossible but just incase there will be only 1 bet will win here, he probably win more versus the total bets he spent but then again, it's still risky, low chance but high reward.

I would say he is all of that.
I can even "understand" greedy players who have a good strategy, who study the games a lot and bet on a very favorable outcome.
However, what I see there is a very poorly made bet, both in terms of strategy and absurd values.
Certainly the result could not be different from a defeat, it would only be saved if he was, in fact, very lucky.

Anyway, I'm a very conservative bettor, so a betting scenario like this is something very surreal for me... forgive me if I'm exaggerating my opinion. But, in any case, it seems that this is a practically unanimous opinion here.

[ralle14]

Or he's just an unlucky bettor, give your reasons and why you think so.

Maybe he's the type of bettor who goes after value odds because based on that screenshot he can afford to take several losses and stick to his corner range strategy. Without knowing the exact amount he puts down per bet and his/her balance being crossed out it's hard to tell if he's the risk taker or greedy kind of bettor.

If those four are the only choices i'd put him under unlucky because he could've had more losses if he swiped down.

[Darker45]

We don't know what's exactly running in the bettor's mind. It could be greed. It could simply be a way of testing his/her luck. He/she might be a risk-taker. Or perhaps he/she could simply be crazy.

As for me, I generally stick to betting on what will probably win. Whether it is a favorite or an underdog bet, if I think it's going to win, it's worth betting.

If the bettor here thinks that his/her bets are worth betting, there's no problem about it. The problem, however, is if he/she thinks they're all winnable bets even if the odds highly speak otherwise. I hope the bettor bets moderately.

[Julien_Olynpic]

In this case, greed cannot be completely separated from lack of strategy. Although there may be some kind of strategy, although we do not know it. And it is already obvious to us that this strategy is unsuccessful. It is possible that this is not so much a strategy, but simply a desire to play at high odds. I would call this an insufficiently thought out or insufficiently refined strategy. Why should we assume that high rates will always bring us profit? I think that bookmakers are not fools and will not just put high odds on a game for no apparent reason. At the same time, such bets are sometimes worked out, but very rarely. There you need to conduct a very high-quality analysis.

In the recent Euro qualifiers the highest score was probably Germany -Scotland with 6 goals - still not 7. You just don't get that in high level games.

On the other hand, how can we call him stupid, if we dont know neither his balance, nor the amount he has bet. What if he has bet just a dollar with such impossible-to-win bets, while his balance is thousands and thousands of bucks. For such people, loosing a dollar is nothing. But imagine what would be, if he turn that into a hundred bucks Imho it is impossible to tell a lot about this guy, when we are limited with details.

[Kelward]

I will categorize that better as a greedy fellow who has no strategy and believe on his/her luck entirely. In sports betting luck matters but proper research and strategy matter way more than someone's luck. The bettor just depends on his/her luck and I believe such bettors will lose no matter how long they try their luck.

It is not all gamble that totally relies on luck like dice game, others like sports bet requires some levels of expertise to increase chances of winnings. The bettor in the OP can be described as being greedy or he's a newbie in sports bet who doesn't understand strategy and the odds of winning a bet. An experienced sports bettor will understand the chances that each team has and bet reasonably, otherwise the results of very high risk bets are always loses.

For me all the name you listed above, fits into his category because he is greedy, lacks good strategy and he takes unnecessary risk. There is no how such game with  high odd in all the accumulation would have played. Although there are situations where a parson may play high odd game and it plays, but the chances is slim. Meaning it's nearly impossible to win such game. If he has played some low odd possible games and add some high odd games it would have been understandable but this situation is really a difficult one. He is bad risk taker, we need to be realistic in predicting the impossibility . I believe this is the type of bet that most people usually play and lost all the time, and blame gambling for their misfortunes. without considering that they are the reason why they don't often win because of their greed and lack of good betting strategy.

[moneystery]

....
Greedy

i think he is a gambler who is not only greedy, but also stupid, because he does not calculate his bets and only bets according to his greed. if he can think straight, then he should not bet with such high odds, unless he is ready. hopefully he was prepared in the beginning and understood that his chances of losing were very high, if not i bet he is stressed right now.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I wish I could get a link to this post so I can properly understand what comment the bettor made before he posted the image of his bet. Any experienced sportsbettor who is really in the right frame of mind will not make this kind of prediction because they are aware that there is only a 1% chance to win such a bet and a 99% chance to lose the bet. Old-time sports bettors will know that in this kind of prediction, even if they are lucky enough that the first two games are successful, all of them cannot play as predicted. I don't know if I should say the gambler is greedy or a risk-taker, but this can also be a strategy for foolhardy gamblers.

[Jating]

It looks like "Lacks good strategy" in my opinion. I mean why you will go on and bet on those ridiculous odds? Perhaps you can get one and then pair it with a favorite, at least you have a better chance that getting all the underdogs and then hope that you will be lucky to win that?

And it's good that he has been called out by the gamblers themselves, perhaps mocking him and laughing at that kind of bet because they have experience it already that this kind of bet is not that good and most likely you are just donating your money to the sports casino themselves. And specially if he is already a experience bettor and then just putting his bet like this? That's crazy and doesn't make sense at all.

For me I will say that such bettor or gambler is only but greedy reason being that the risk is over doss, such odds for me can only be good when I want to place a single bet and not  a multiple bet of such number, it can only be greed because he or she want to make it big such predictions can hardly have a possible outcome of winning irrespective of how many triers although every one has a different betting strategy or strategies that seems more pleasing and convincing enough of having the possible outcome of winning. However, he or she is quite unlucky that the game didn't play out , in as much as there is no guarantee or certainty of a game playing out to be a winning I could say that the risk attachment to this predictions are very much on the high side.

[Pandu Geddon]

he's a reckless bettor. maybe he believes that if luck is with him, then he will win any bet. even if the risk is too great.
he must have been testing his own luck. normal bettors would not make bets like that. there is a consideration of the chances of winning and losing.
I still can't believe some bettors do it. but the screenshot is real. maybe his wallet was too full of money, so he was having fun with it.
