sports betting, skilled base or luck base?

[Accardo]

Focusing on winning back is always bad, past losses should be assessed only as experience gained, lessons for which you paid, and further play should be focused on skill, but without blind desire to win back, then you can hope for a profit, otherwise it will all be useless. Playing for luck is also a game without hope of winning, maybe once, but no more.

Gamblers at a greater amount have unique intentions that revolves around winning. The major question is what players regard as success in gaming. Being able to save up bankrolls could be considered a win, there exist numerous ways to make profits in gambling, including withholding mental stability.

Unfortunately, false information circulates amongst new players, who assume winning must be monetary inclined, that's why they fail so much. On a simpler notion, gamers need to forgo whatever has been lost and focus on managing what's left in the bankroll.

I doubt there are many ways to win at gambling, although yes there are, but it will not guarantee that we can win, because as far as I know, winning at gambling depends on luck and yes, all types of gambling are like this, whether it is pure or requires skills and knowledge like sports betting. I believe sports betting is a game that requires skill to do it, but this is also inseparable from luck.
It's better if we don't have to think about what we've lost in gambling (money), when we lose and think about the money we've lost, what can happen is that we will only experience an uneasy heart and yes, the urge to chase that loss will be there.

I totally agree with you when you Said that we shouldn't think about our lost, of course thinking about our lost can lead us into depression and from there you can start having negative thoughts.  However, I think this was the reason why most gamblers always find it very difficult to withdraw from playing gamble.  Because whenever time they think about their lost, at this point even if you advice them to quite from gambling they won't even say a word. Though is always very difficult to let go off those loses, but since we have not been wining from gambling I think the best thing to do is just to withdraw from it so as to avoid having more losing record.

It seems to me that the most important thing is to work out the system, then it can be used with any amounts, if it works with small stakes, then it should also work with larger stakes. But if you can’t achieve victory with lower stakes, it means that there is no point in starting the game with higher ones, because this will only lead to bigger losses. When it comes to money, we should rely only on our skill and not rely on luck.

I would say that sports betting is both skill based and luck based. It depends on how much time you put into researching teams, players, coaches etc. You need to know the sport inside out in order for it to be successful. The more research you do before placing bets, the better chance of winning.

Gambling guarantees nothing, but at least doing research is a little bit advantageous in sports betting. This is how sports betting attracts many gamblers, especially those who are fans of sports, as they are not just reliant on luck but also on their analysis. Of course, we can never say this will give us a lot of money, but at least it gives us a chance to win more than lose. If we are not greedy, I'm certain that many sports bettors can get a lot of money. Unfortunately, we usually get carried away with such greed, and instead of withdrawing our money, we continue gambling and lose it all.

That's true. It will be a lot of work but it can be fruitful. Researching the game + pure knowledge about it can really help us increase the chance of winning our bets instead of just betting blindly without even having any knowledge about the game itself. Almost all the records are already out on the internet from player stats to their status before the game. i.e. injuries.
When we use all that information that is scattered on the internet, we can actually try to predict the results of the game in almost the perfect direction. I mean, if the oddsmakers can do it, why not us? They seem to know how much the spreads that should be input or who is the favorite and they are also relying on stats just like us.

If betting is a skill, it would have make many gamblers a millionaire today, and many gamblers would have like to be using any amount of money to  gamble because they know they are going to win anytime they play. If you are skillful on a particular thing, you will not be afraid of losing because you have the skill to know the final result before the end of the betting.

I guess betting is a luck, what you are not expecting  from your betting can come to you to be happy or sad at the moment, which is the reason gamblers should gamble wisely for them not to be addicted to gambling.

Good research will increase the chances of winning, but in many cases, even after good research, it is not possible to win there. If you have to lose to a relatively weak team even if you are on top of the points table, then no matter how good the research is, it is not effective. That is why neither experience nor good research is effective if luck does not favor it properly. Luck should be given priority not only in sports betting but in any gambling. However, although research is effective in sports, in casino gambling you have to rely on luck.

Someone who have skill doesn't mean they will never make mistake, let's say in Mbappe in football, even though we know he's currently the best player, it doesn't mean if he play, he will at least score a goal.

We know Mbappe has a very good skill, far above than average football players, but there's always a luck will play. Like, the ball hit crossbar, woodwork, his teammates sucks, or the opponent goalkeeper is as good as him.

Thinking about the losses we have been making from gambling would only increase our emotions of becoming prone to gambling losses as time goes on. It is better we keep taking the usual risks that are necessary to keep trying our luck to make money from gambling.
Every gambler need to calm down and focus on doubling their portfolio and if the wirse comes, we can take a rest from gambling and put the effort in other things that can fetch us money. One you have other sources of income, you will not be always bothered about gambling losses because you have other sources of income.

Understand the system in question, what is the game system?
In sports betting, the most important thing is that we can know the development of each team as whole with the correct information such as who are the injured players or players who will play in the match, so that we can make predictions that are likely to win the bet.
In my opinion, sports betting is not like casino game that has working system that has been designed by the game provider, this will be purely how each team or player plays in match.

[Muba20]

Based on your experience, is it primarily luck, or do you still believe it’s skill-based, even if you haven't proven yourself yet?

There is no possibility of winning in gambling depending on skill. If someone depends on luck, then he may be able to win. But my advice as a gambler is to gain skill. If someone gambles after observing well with his own skill, then he can win, but whatever we call skill or luck in gambling, we cannot be sure from any aspect that there is such an aspect in gambling where luck or skill is most effective. The gambler has to understand the situation and decide where skill is needed and where luck is needed. Although everyone will give priority to luck because without luck, the chances of winning in gambling are very low. Personally, I consider both luck and skill in my gambling, sometimes I get the opposite result and sometimes I win. This is natural in gambling.

If you believe in luck you ought to play casino games.
Sport betting is the only kind of gambling where you can decrease random. And you prefer to believe in luck - increasing random. It is silly as for me - to play predictable game and believe in luck the same time.
In sport betting the main problem is high quality analyze and discipline. You have to control your bets, odds, the size of bet, bankroll - it is serious job that common gambler don`t like. That`s why you don`t see millionaires around you.

The thing that comes to my mind when we think about defeat is the intention to pursue victory or recover losses which of course leads to one action, namely gambling continuously, and others as you said can make us depressed or stressed which will eventually affect our mental health sooner or later. It's really bad if we think too much about the defeat that occurs, as much as possible we must be able to accept the fact of defeat that occurs with the bets we make. Withdrawing can be done and is easy to do for those who do gamble wisely, but for those who have the goal of winning in gambling, withdrawing is a problem that is indeed difficult to do. I myself feel this every now and then where I can't pull myself out of gambling with a profit.

There are two basic ways to approach sports betting with skill.

Top down betting
Also known as "Steam Chasing". Finding the leading sportsbooks where very smart bettors bet and that move the market.
Betting at a sportsbook that is slow enough to change the odds and getting the odds before they move there. This also includes arbitrage, you basicly do the same thing as the arbitrage window is closed quickly.

Bottom up betting
Also known as "Originating" this means making your own odds using some kind of model based on data that you have collected. Then you compare the odds that you have created to the bookmakers odds and finding places where you get better odds than your model. This can also include elements of qualitive data which means watching teams, knowing about sithuations ect.

Sport betting is skill based, if you really want to win more than you lose then you have to know a lot of thing about that particular sport you always gamble and if you want to lose more than you win gamble base on luck, right now Liverpool are the strongest team right now in the English premier league and they are topping there league table with a very good point and the team following them in the back are arsenal and Liverpool is gapping arsenal with 13 point and we know how inconsistent arsenal is and how determine Liverpool is in lifting the premier league trophy and the league is coming to an end can you bet on arsenal in lifting the premier league title this season I believe you won't because that will result to a waste of funds, I'm just using this as an example to explain to you that if you gamble base on luck you will lose more, some people don't do research before they predict and place a bet because they believe gambling is base on luck, gambling is not base on luck is base on skill and research, there are teams that are stronger than the other and those stronger team wins the weaker one's 80% each time they meet so why will anyone say gambling is base on luck.

Yes but still not that easy for some gamblers who are that desperate to recover what they have lose while gambling, and if they can forget about their past history and focused on managing their current bankroll of course it would be more better than chasing after lose. Gambling is not something that you must have winning at all time because it's not certain so, when gambling they should try as much as possible to lower their expectations because when it ends up the other way round they could feel so disappointed and devastated.

You are right, the success in sports betting is not only based on one but on both factors (skill and luck) and without them both, a gambler will have a low win rate compare to someone that has a great skill in analysis for good prediction.

You have a good point about mental stability, which I like to encapsulate into a balanced gambling psychology. Well, it would have been fair and fitting when the context is different, but in the context like skills, the point on psychology is an extra that everyone needs. Because ordinarily, no one can succeed in any business without a good mental state, otherwise, such should be regarded as mad in the bsuiness.
