How long have you been gambling in sports?

[mirakal]

It just came to my mind, and I hope users here will find this topic interesting. This might seem like a simple question, but hopefully it is interesting for some sports bettors, whether we are starting out or have been gambling for years. We will know what makes us continue gambling even if we aren't successful in making money yet, or if we stay because making money in sports betting is very easy.

So please answer this question:

How long have you been gambling, and have you already figured out how to win? If yes or no, please explain.

I don't really understand the question. There are like handful of people who can make a living from gambling, and even that's from skill based games. And those pro gamblers have still great deal of luck involved on their outcome.

Other games, even if you found out how to make a money for a while, there's a risk involved that pretty much guarantees when it hits that you realize that you haven't "figured out how to win". But just that you were lucky, which was the whole point of gambling. It's not a questio of if the system fails, but when it fails. Majority of people who is making the money with gambling owes that to their luck, and they just want to believe they have found the way, instead of accepting it was luck.

I have been gambling for quite long years until I realized that winning in gambling does happen not because you are good or skillful enough in a certain game, but because you are betting in its perfect timing, and that luck is there with you. Because in all honesty, gambling is always based on luck and chances, it’s only seldom to happen that you win because you have master the game.

Even in sports betting, it’s always been luck as the primary reason to win, good team work and coordination is only secondary. Know that everything in gambling is about probability, so you have to get lucky and be smart so you can bring home your profits.

I think it was around eight years ago when I use money that I earned doing physical job for other people and then just betting with other people with sports. I have always Gambled before with NBA Because that is the sport, which Is popular in my place. I haven’t been even acquainted with online Gambling sites. It has been a long time.

In our country, before online sportsbooks was introduced, we were already gambling, but it was on a limited basis, just gambling with friends and people we knew. When we were introduced to online sports betting, bettors became more clever as it helped us become well aware of the odds.

Sports betting has been in the gambling industry for a while, but without crypto, I would not have been able to gamble easily. It was really my interest in crypto that made me find a way to easily gamble on sports. I think this is one of the best types of gambling as we never get tired of it. Imagine, some gamblers have been at it for more or less 10 years and are still doing it now.

A few years using bitcoin casinos. Before that I used to gamble using cash, betting on sports usually on my way to the pub to watch it and have a cold one. 

I haven't figured how to win yet, so I won't be able top help you. I tend to bet on things I like like UFC and sometimes you can predict these fights. Bet on really uneven matches, because many of them end the way you think they will. I remember betting on People who I saw were extraordinary, for instance in 2013 and later I'd always bet on Jon Jones and after the first 2 wins I'd only bet the money that I won previously. I haven't made a ton of money on that but that was always a good call to bet money on him. Wish I had more balls to bet $10k+ that could've been something.

There is absolutely no reliable figure to what would guarantee my bets on gambling because I have been predicting in the sport games but mostly does not produce results as I expected so then, I loses more than I wins but I could condone with it because I can always afford those looses.

So as, I still keep to gamble because I feel the funs while gambling with the potential hopefulness that I may be lucky to profit from it somedays.

For Bitcoin casinos, most likely 5 years ago, and it was really fun to bet on the sports that you really like and then have some fun betting on your teams. So it makes more fun watching the game. But I it's really difficult to know if you are winning or not, I guess not everyone is tracking their wins and most likely playing for fun and entertainment.

But for those who are winning, you're either good at that sports and that you are very luck as well. 

There could be some games that we didn't expect to lose because we bet on the favorites, but that is gambling, still very hard to predict even in the sports that we have been following for years.

For me I have been in gambling for over 7 years now but not a regular betor. I wouldn't really say I have figured out a way to win regularly because gambling is a game of luck. Sometimes I win sometime I also loose so it's vise versa meaning gambling win is not sure. Gambling is just like heredity, almost everyone grew up knowing gambling but it all started from watching games like football, wrestling/ boxing, NBA and many others which have not been mentioned. From there we meet friends that watch them and we get along and know more and started betting gradually till we fully know what gambling works.

I have been gambling for years now and if am comparing how I was gambling back then to now, I was much active with gambling before than now and the change is due to multiple engagements into other more meaningful things of life.

As a sports bettor, gambling has been able to expose me to unpopular football leagues that are not commonly discussed. By gambling experience I can sincerely say there's a figured out way of winning. If there was, we all would have been rich gamblers and none would have bothered about gambling vices. Maintaining a responsible gambling lifestyle should be at the core for winning, anything order than that for me I just believe it's gonna lead to extra losses trying to figure out strategies upon strategies.

Gambling for me started with making bets against friends in our own schoolyard games. Winner gets this or loser has to do this dare, etc. I assume this is how most people get started making bets, but who knows. Eventually it turns into money and card games, but the fun of those schoolyard bets can never be matched again…

The longer it has been, the more you realize that it's all about luck and not skill. A lot of people will talk about their skill, a lot of people will claim that they can make a living out of it, and for a moment they are right, could be as long as a few years, but you know that it will fail eventually one day.

This is why if you have been gambling like me for many years, like over a decade now, getting closer to two decades even, then you know that it's something to do as fun and if you are having fun then you are on the right path but if you are doing to make some money then you are doing wrong, you shouldn't do that. I believe that we could make a good return from this if we know what we are doing but not a living income .

Sports are loved by more or less everyone and I think almost all gamblers start their betting journey by betting on sports.  So I think all gamblers have this experience. Bets from spots can be won if one has good knowledge about sports. By having a good knowledge of how the players of the team you are betting on will perform, you will be able to make a possible prediction. otherwise you won't be able to make predictions on sports and chances of losing will be high.

I basically like football the most because I lose the most by betting on my favorite team. I bet on the Copa America this season, but all the teams I trust lose and I face losses on my bets. But even though I can win some bets, I lose most of the time, so this season I start trusting the unique team directly, leaving my favorite team.

The same football betting has been a favorite for a long time, not only the Copa America you can see how the EURO 2024 tournament is so difficult here I also lost a lot because some favorite teams did not win or the results were drawn even though some other bets were won.
This is part of the excitement of the two ongoing tournaments together Copa America and EURO 2024 the excitement continues so some of the forum earnings are always allocated every week for betting.

6 years starting from 2018, betting on the sport that interests me the most is soccer betting. and other sports such as basketball, only a few clubs are interested so it is rare to bet on these and other sports. I have loved the sport of football since I was little, and I have become a favorite because I watch updates and developments on the sport of football almost every day. like now the euro is trending from the start of matches every day betting for several countries that I like

Sports betting is my favorite gamble and I've been into it for fairly a long time now, lets say 12 years. its very entertaining  predicting it because I play too and I fell as though I am really immersed and feel a sense of belonging predicting it.

There are no formulars buddy, one time some patterns seems to be working and the next minute the teams you played to score will just deal you a big blow by playing goalless, sometimes we resorted to predicting numbers of corner kicks which converted for a while, but was not constant as some games are really dull without much corners. In a nut shell, there are no real consistent patterns. All are predictions and  none is 100% sure. Just have fun on the go.

[irhact]

it’s difficult to pinpoint a specific time because as kids we used to bet on each other and win a few prizes even if it were little ones. growing up sports was definitely something me and fellow kids watched and enjoyed and predicting who will was even more enjoyable

Betting as kids can be harmful if we have been betting very competitively but if we were betting just for entertainment then there is nothing wrong in that as I think everybody here had few bets when they were kids. For sport betting, I have been doing that since I can remember that I became an adult. I bet on almost every game that I go to watch. As the Euros is going on, there is no game that goes by that I don't gamble on. Some of the games are live games and others I make my prediction before hand. When you're gambling and enjoying it with some limit that prevents you from getting addicted, I think that is fine. Sport is something everybody grew up watching and loved it that is why they have so many individuals gambling on sport events. If I notice that my participation on sport betting is getting out of hand, I'll have to stop but for now I'm enjoying every bit of my bets

I can’t say how long I’ve been playing since I have no problem taking a break or even forgetting about sports betting for a long time. At the moment, my gaming “session” probably lasts about three years, but during this period there were many pauses lasting several months.
As for the question of whether I learned how to win, it’s naive - no one admits it haha. As always, profit is in value bets and now it’s most likely live bets, but I can’t tell you a specific recipe.

Sport betting is one of the most popular bet which everyone partake on because they grew up with it in fact during stage schools inter house sport people plays football across the houses or across the classes making sport game to be mostly valued by pupils. Even in some tertiary institution there are also departmental matches boost the way people shows interest in sport betting than any other games out there is mostly common within the Africans including me myself loves sports betting but I don't gamble to an extent were I can no longer control my gambling habits.

I can't remember the exact date, but perhaps the first bets I made were between the years 2005-2006 on football matches in the national championship in my country. I was never lucky to win because I had to predict the outcome of 13 matches combined, which makes winning almost impossible for the majority. I then succeeded in achieving my first profits by taking advantage of digital gambling platforms, where you can bet on even one match, and the option is available in all sports (not just football).

Personally, I consider that real gambling is sports betting and nothing else, since this depends on choice and luck. In my opinion, slot games are the perfect choice for those who do not know how these games are programmed.

[PX-Z]

I remember myself gambles for very long time now like since 2009, if i consider my high school time for gambling like betting in basketball, boxing and billiards (pool) against my fellow locals. If its about the online gambling i guess i just started way back 2021. Figuring about how to win or choose what to bet always depends on my personal choice, known player in a team, etc. of course its not always got a win.

I have been interested in sports games for a long time, but I only started devoting a lot of time to them a few years ago.
Some sports have always interested me, for example tennis. This game has interesting rules, it is most often played by 2 players and what has always attracted me is that there are no draws in this game. In addition, this game is very popular among bookmakers. Along with football, hockey and basketball, you will almost always see bets on tennis. Tennis has several major tournaments throughout the year. This allows you to track games evenly. The only thing I don't like is that often there is no such thing as "home matches". In football this is the most clear-cut phenomenon, but not in tennis.

I have been gambling for approximately 15yrs now if I'm not mistaken, of which I must say, it's actually been obe of the best experiences I ever heard, as I was able to make mistakes, learn from the mistakes and develop new principles that now help me to gamble responsibly today. And I can't remember how many times back in college that I fell victim to telegram fixed Football matches scam, due to the fact that I was still a novice and wanted to make mama proud by getting rich quick, not knowing that was my biggest mistake ever, of which I'm proud of, because it was the mistakes I made yesterday that has made me vigilant and a good gambler today.
