Do you have a team or player on which you keep losing bets no matter what?

[sunsilk]

I have this thought that if ever I keep on losing to the team that I have bet for thrice or more then I'd stop. But if that team can make me win and break that record, I'd still keep on going with them.

I guess that we've got this way of understanding these superstitious beliefs and we think that the right thing to do is to do some actions based on what we think should be done.

It's all a matter of what we're up to with these bets and to any games that we bet on, sometimes it's really applied regardless even if people think that we're crazy and odd.

It is rather an anecdote from my part, but our national football/soccer team used to be as bad as one can only imagine and it was considered from my part a cursed thing to bet in favor of them in general. Things have changed a bit lately, we have getting better performance and better players, thanks to better training, but there was a time nobody held any hope on our team reaching any significant level in high leagues.
And since I did not like to bet against my own national team, I was reluctant to bet on matches in which they were involved directly.

It is not so ething as hard and explicit as other cases of "gambling/betting curses", but it definitely affected how I have viewed football betting and the way my cousin used to bet during those matches.

Luckily no. only, if it was a sports bet, then I would not only support 1 club, or I would never support any club, no. I would much rather choose a club that has the potential to win, based on H2H, previous competition analysis, or predictions from various odds.

So, after reading this, I'm curious, is such a curse really true? Or have I experienced it so far but am not aware of it? Haha
I don't think so, if I lose, then I really am bad luck or my analysis is bad.  
It's all about bad or good luck for me

So, has anyone been experiencing something similar, like never betting on a tennis player, never betting if his team is playing against San Antonio Spurs or Villarreal, or avoiding completely a league like the Belgian Pro League because overall you always lose on those matches?

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

Certainly my favorite team, of which I am a devoted and fanatical supporter.

Even when they are not doing very well in the national championship, I bet on them, knowing that the odds are low.

Besides, I have no other reason to bet against the odds, I believe that chasing losses or betting on something unlikely is a losing strategy. It is better to bet on another sport, still uncertain, to learn how it works, than to continue betting on something you know and that you know will not give you any more profits.

It is possible to eventually make a lot of money betting on the unlikely, but... how much money will you lose until that lucky moment arrives? I believe that this type of bet does not pay off in the long run.

I'll update it tomorrow with the results.

And here we go:

19:05  Scylla  - 2 places   > Lost
19:38  Hock Eye The Noo - win  > Lost
20:08  Snooker Mccrew - 3 places  > Lost
20:38 - no bet
21:08 Big Bard - win  >Lost
21:38 So Sleepy  - win >Lost

It's even worse because even if I had taken two places instead of win I would have lost and even spreading from 2 places to 3 in the other bets I would have still lost, again a race where one favorite won out of 6 and even if you would have placed placing bets on them you would still have been $3 lost for $6 bet.
Neah, no way I would ever break even with this racecourse.

What I does is that I completely avoid some team that doesn't score to my expectation like if making selections and I noticed that particular has matched to play I wouldn't include them in my selection to avoid further lose,

But that's the whole thing, in order for them to get on your blacklist you must have already had a bad experience with them, so they are your black sheep, they must disappoint first in order to make you avoid them.

I wouldn't say that I have a cursed team, but I vividly remember this one in NBA, Chris Paul breaks infamous losing streak vs. referee Scott Foster as Suns top Clippers in Game 2.

So for sure NBA fans are going to remember this losing streak or the feud between CP3 and Scott Foster, and it become too personal. So if there are games that CP3 are going to play and Foster is the referee, even if Paul's team is the favorite, you should avoid betting on them at all cost,  .

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

Mine was Conor Macgregor, i had fade on that fighter because i followed all his career, and he lost all his past fights, and that's really sad because he used to be a man with the power to knock down any opponent in the first minute, and see him lose again and again and again feels terrible, it makes me think his motivation is gone, maybe he already made enough money to focus on winning or i don't know what's his problem, but on the next fight i will bet against him to try to recover what he makes me lose.

It's both luck and experience but you are right, sometimes one outweighs the other, and it's luck for most of us there, in my opinion

[Odohu]

I don't gamble with emotions because gambling is strictly business for me and I have most of my fun when I win. I might be supporting a team but that does not stop me from playing against them if they meet my condition for selection. This is why I cannot continue to playing a bet that will fail simply because I support the team or player, I won't do that and I can't do it. I know a few friends that bet in favour of their team every time they have match. I also know sole gamblers that bet in favour if certain individual simply because they are their fans or from the same country. I don't consider this a good way to go about gamble.

[Pandu Geddon]

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

this season has not been seen whether luck will be lost when I bet on United and Munich matches. last season I was always unlucky when betting on United and Munich. or when both teams played. whether betting on both winning or losing, I was always unlucky.
it seems that the beginning of this season is quite good. I bet on Munich and United and I didn't lose the bet. however, when I want to bet on both teams, there is a doubt that bothers my mind.

[Porfirii]

I think that we all know cases of people who are real fans of local sports teams and will bet for them no matter the chances of winning (and consistently lose time after time).

In my case I currently know several people who bet for Athletic of Bilbao, which is considered almost a religion for many (San Mames stadium is called "The Cathedral" for some reason). I have also known people who bet hundreds of dollars for Real Madrid, with better odds in comparison

[danherbias07]

I had one back in the last season of the NBA and I thought they could really win games because my perspective on them was they are a strong team.

I was mistaken, most of my bets were losses and I had a hard time recovering them all using other teams to win games. Next year, I mean in 2 months, maybe they will be a better team and I may bet for them again.
It's not like they didn't let me win some, they also had their good times and they won some of their match. I think the only trouble there was me being hard-headed to believe that they can win most of their games.

[YOSHIE]

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

For teams or players that always make me unlucky in betting, if analyzed for me personally there may not be any, because I bet based on the team's assessment and strength of previous matches, You could say that based on ranking or score provisions, you could say that I don't have a team or player that can be used as a curse for gambling.

If you lose or win in a game, maybe that's normal, but it's not always to lose, you could say 2 loses 3 wins, I don't think that's a curse for my bets, that's my basis for considering teams or players for my bets, you can said the AS Roma teamincluding my favorite team.

[Frankolala]

I no longer bet on Manchester united anymore because of the bad lucks that they have brought to me making me to lose my bet. Last season taught me a lesson not to be so confident on a team because of the love you have for them.

This season I will not put any bet on United because they have started it again. Their last match was a lost to me because I thought thay they have improved with the recent development in the club but they still cut my slip last weekend.

[Hatchy]

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

I won't want to mention the name of a team, I don't know if it's someones favorite. But then I don have a team which I can never bet on no matter how good they later become in the future. They have ruined so many of my games in the past and cut all my hopes short. It's a normal thing to avoid such a team because our goal for placing a bet is to make profits from our wins. Any team that might end up ruining our goals should be avoided. I just bet on my favorite team  most times and those I know have a better chance or good players to avoid losing my bets.

[Jating]

I don't have any curse team or what, but from what I have been observing lately, let's say I want to bet on a certain team and then when I bet on them they are going to lose. On the contrary, if I say that I'm going to bet on the next game with another team, but didn't pull the trigger, that team is going to win.

So I guess that is just a case of bad luck in my end. And when I hesitate, I usually take the L and then said to myself that I won't do that again. But when the time comes and I go and bet right away, it usually lose to me even though I bet on the favorite. I guess that is the very definition or risk and the unknown.

[Awaklara]

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

I have several teams that I favor in every league that I follow. but I will not immediately bet on the victory of my favorite team. because of seeing the condition of the opponent or the readiness of the team itself.
I do not feel that there is a curse like that in my gambling. because I know that I don't always have to be very obsessed with the team I support and my bets. although I am sometimes very annoyed when betting on a team that is very certain to win and the results are not as expected.
I also do not expect to get a curse like that. hopefully not.

[Oluwa-btc]

Which one is your cursed team when it comes to gambling?

Chelsea has been a curse to me and I think my friends too in school.

No matter how we place the bet we will surely get disappointed for real. There has been times where I placed for Chelsea to lose because they have been losing all the times I wished they will win but they keep losing just the day I decided to put Chelsea on the losing side that day they won, I don't know what is it with me when it comes to Chelsea on gambling am always losing, i usually use to feel I'm the only one who experiences this until i broke it out with my friends in school and they too shared their experience on the same team/club although others had theirs on other teams but a few of us was just chelsea.

NB: this not an arguement on favourite clubs, so Chelsea fans skip the thought.  

Just having my thoughts on this, honestly speaking it's fustrating seeing your best team loosing the match whereas you have put so much faith in then winning the match and alongside you have betted for their win but they end up loosing. What a mess.
I think this things happen on daily basis most especially when they are to be your best team.

Few days back a friend visited me with an angry face and was complaining as well, and I was like what's the issue he started spilling out what's wrong, before then I saw from his countenance and said you lose your bets? And he replied not really but can you imagine what Manchester is playing and I was like sometimes are like that.
But it didn't end there, tho he said he played for them to lose in the bets but watching them lose the match entirely it's what got him so annoyed.

[hyudien]

The "cursed" team in gambling, hmmmm
Actually this happened last season or before, at which time I often made parlay or multibet bets for several teams. Usually almost every week I make bets and include one big team in the Premier League, namely Manchester United. And do you know what happened? yes I always lose when I include them in the list of teams to bet on. On the other hand, if I avoid them, they can actually win. Lol
That was one of the experiences that I myself felt was strange, was this a coincidence or did they not want to be bet on, so they didn't let me win. One more thing, I was also surprised when I bet on my support team always lost, so I also avoided them so they could win.
