Being hesitant could make or break you.

[Sandra_hakeem]

An event from the European football championships final - Spain vs England was almost turning into a disaster for three young men on their youth corp service program/camp , just about half a mile away from where I reside.. " I heard people screaming terribly and I had to look below from my balcony". It was an intense argument about one of them being too hesitant in wagering a bigger amount, and the rest being too afraid to make any bookings at all. It was a 2.98 odds on Spain and 3.69 odds on England at around the time of booking.
He managed to win 100k from the little he was able to summon up courage with.

Are you saying it is good that he did not click on cash out? Cash out has been a terrible idea for me. It is betting then why cash out. Just choose the club that you think would win and do not go for cash out even if the match go against your plan. I have won many games before when it was just amount some seconds or some minutes to the end of the match. England equalized but Spain later scored the second goal just some minutes during the 5 minutes extra time and won the match. It was an interesting match, especially for those that chose Spain to win.

You are worried or cautious on betting specific amount because you are betting what you can’t afford to lose which is a right feeling to manage risk. You don’t meed to overcome this feeling because it’s your body way to limit yourself on betting an amount that you will regret when lost.

The only way to overcome this dilemma is by having a huge bankroll itself so that you will not feel uneasy betting huge amount since you have a lot of money to spare. Building your bankroll will make you increase the amount that you can afford to lose.

Don’t think about betting high or something if you are hesitant to do it because it simply you can’t afford to lose that money.

Regardless if the wagering amount is too high or not, the fact that you're still in a state of hesitation or confusion, then I suggest to never start betting at all. Being hesitant could only break you in the end, that's proven a lot of times. Bet only when you are certain and confident enough, so that whatever will be the result of the amount you wager, you won't end up regretting on yourself. Although the betting outcome is always uncertain, but at least you do it with no hesitation on your part. And also, bet on what you can afford to lose, that's the best tip when gambling.

Always keep in mind that you cannot guarantee a win. Winning in sports betting is determined by having more wins than losses overall, so not every bet is crucial, and you shouldn't be heavily invested in a single outcome. This would only indicate that you aren't managing your bankroll well.

Betting large amounts of money is likely to lead to addiction. You might start winning, but once you experience losing, you'll easily become overwhelmed because of the high pressure and the emotions you invest in the game. What I have learned from sports gambling is that whether I'm confident or not, the outcome is still 50/50. Therefore, I should be disciplined in following my bankroll management every time.

I don't know what you're talking about... Where did you get that from? One of them was regretting for not wagering atleast a reasonable amount that could have fetched them much more than the 100k, which the others were damned for being hesitant ..

The pressure and everything was already too much on them just like they explained... They all tried to analyze and bet on a single ticket each for that game alone just about 15 minutes before the game had begun... How sick is that?

In my life, 'doubt and retreat' is a principle that I instill in myself, I don't only use this trait in the gambling arena, it also applies in my real life, If I hesitate in doing something I will choose to retreat, so that people say I am a coward, but behind that there is a sequence that will happen.

This is not much different from yesterday's Europa League match between Spain vs England, I was hesitant to bet, initially I chose Spain to be 1 ahead of England, even though that actually happened on the field with a score of (2-1), So there were five of my friends who asked me to bet, because I was doubtful from the start, I chose to back off, even though I failed this time in the Spain vs England match, I might convince myself that in the next match it would still be in Europe.

There is no more story for me Odds 2.98 x 3.69 if you have any doubts, shut up and watch.

so I'm wondering what your own case was.

In no case, as I said, my doubts peaked during Spain vs. England, I saw my friend 50/for Spain and 50/for England, so I withdrew, I wasn't sure my score myself, whether it happens to be 2-1, this often happens when we don't place a bet, our prediction is correct.

It's the same as the lottery, the ticket you buy is 66 but it comes out with 99, hmmm why don't I buy the second ticket, it's 66 and 99, that's gambling, testing emotional levels.

Such a situation itis better to follow your mind and not the public. Such argument always happens in football betting halls and football watching centers. And if you want to play games like it is also better to gamble in a quiet place and probably in your phone so that nobody would come and make noise again.

Doubt or hesitant are part of gambling life and it is the hesitant that make gambling a prediction event. So you predict against the odd or the opposite and whatever result you have is the out.

It's not about being a coward... Your friends actually played their own part in trying to convince you to gamble; they weren't going say that to just anyone. They told you cause they knew you'd pick up an interest innit, but you didn't. You're not different from your friends anyway so I'm wondering what your own case was.

There is no more story for me Odds 2.98 x 3.69 if you have any doubts, shut up and watch.

There's always a level of peace you'd enjoy just by watching the games without playing on them. But, whatever, a win is a win!

What I have learned from sports gambling is that whether I'm confident or not, the outcome is still 50/50.

A game runs from 1 to 90 minutes and doesn't include extra time and penalties... Nobody would have the heart to risk his funds on that game, predicting it to be a draw.

In sports betting, if both teams are in the final, or meaning playing in a match that will determine who will be the champion in that season then that is a situation where it can be said that both teams are equally strong at that time so they were able to reach the final, meaning it is quite natural for someone to feel doubtful in choosing which team to bet on to win, I understand that in terms of choosing this also depends on each individual's favorite team.

But if we talk about how much should be bet? I think of course allocating an amount that is beyond our limits will always be a mistake, it doesn't mean that you will lose but what we have to pay attention to is what if it turns out the match ends with a result that doesn't match your expectations in terms of the team you choose for at risk of losing. Therefore I think it is very clear that the best thing is to only risk an amount that does not exceed the limits of your ability, at any time and in any situation that is the best approach in gambling.

[Yatsan]

Never let the hype get you. You won't hesitate in the first place if you really want to do a particular thing. Hesitation means doubt, doubt is already a sign that you aren't sure. First of all, it is you who would take the burden if ever you'll lose the game. If they are really into adding the amount or promoting assurance to push you, they should just do it for themselves instead. One reason why they don't is because they aren't really sure of the outcome or they just want others to have the courage they don't have. Never listen to people around you whenever you are gambling. Think of it this way; if you lose by your own decision, then it would be easier to accept than to let others decide for you and regret it afterwards. Accept the idea that if it is not your day, then it's not.

[Frankolala]

For such arguments and noise making from the corpers shows that they are greedy and are not contented with their win. This is what lead gamblers toosing more than what they can afford to lose, and I believe that next time if these corper gamblers want to stake their bet, they will increase the amount so that they will make more profit.

Using an amount that you can afford to lose is the best amount in which one can use to wager and this amount differs from gamblers to gamblers because our income are not the same.

I think I understood you just now. Betting should not be about this. People that wants to bet should use the money that they can afford to lose to bet. I am not the type of person that will bet on a match and win and be happy like I have won something great. This is because I go for low odds with little amount of money. Less than 3 odd is still not an odd that I consider high in this regard. Also if I do not go for a bet and it come up that I would have won the bet, that has become past that I can not think about. I guess the person you are talking about used his monthly allowance to gamble and which is not appropriate although he was lucky but what if he lost the money.

[mamesso]

I think it is natural that the young man was hesitant to place a bigger bet because this is a bet, something that we believe may not necessarily give positive results even though the chances of Spain winning the match are very large. In my opinion, the fight should not have happened, the young man had done the right thing, he was able to think more clearly than his friend who wanted him to place a bigger bet.

If you ask "Being hesitant could make or break you." So the most appropriate answer in my opinion is that it will make you successful, if you press the cash out button when placing a bet, all your money will be used up if England succeeds in beating Spain. The young man had that mindset, he deliberately left his money in anticipation if Spain lost to England, if that was the reality, his friends would be very grateful to him because they would still have some money to meet other needs.
Before doing anything, I always consider the worst possibility, so feeling doubt will never make me feel broken.

[yahoo62278]

If you are hesitating or worried about the money that bad, you probably don't need to be wagering at all. If you have done your research and feel confident in the team you are considering, then bet an amount of money that will not matter if you lose. It's not rocket science.

[Rruchi man]

These kinds of stories can be encouraging for some people to wager more money than they can afford to lose. The only reason why the decision of uncertainty is considered is because his bets did not lose. If he had lost the bet instead of winning the small amount of money, we would have celebrated his uncertainty and hesitation in wagering a higher amount.

Instead of randomly determining the amount of money you should use to wager in each game you want to play, have a fixed amount that you wager.

The argument was just so unnecessary as they failed to take a bold step while one of them had the courage to do it. It's gambling so they shouldn't make such noise to create awareness in the neighborhood. It only shows more of how irresponsible they are or addicted. Though I won't call the one who took the risk as wise or smart , because as a responsible gambler you should be able to minimize your risk.
Taking such huge risk would only lead one to bigger loss. Image his reaction if he had lost the bet. He would be frustrated. I won't say for sure because for him to risk that bit then he might just be having enough to risk.
To overcome uncertainty you just have to know you game and be good at it. Don't place a bet because someone said so. If you aren't sure about the game just let it be. Even though it later turns out well don't have regrets.

This here is exactly what differentiates a calm gambler with an addict of a gambler. Once someone is hesitant on what to bet they don’t actually trust the game, it is actually ok not to trust any game to bet on, but without proper risk management you might end up just paying more than you can afford to lose.

Things like people cashing out early from their win, putting an amount that they can’t afford to lose is all without proper risk management. From the OP’s narration you can easily see that the the three men are definitely in a path to greed which is definitely bad. Once there is a proper risk management there is no need to be hesitant on what to bet on, just risk what you can afford to lose

Gambling is risk, you just have to look beyond your hesitation and stake what you can afford to lose, the rest of the two guys that weren't as courageous as him will only standby and watch him celebrate his win or celebrate along with him, because if they had taken the same risk as the winner did, they would have all been celebrating their wins together.

Opportunities like this don't always present themselves in the gambling world, so if you see an opportunity, just grab it, some person's go as far as sharing their money into two places just to stake on the both teams to win on different slips, whichever that enters is a win-win for them.
