Let’s say a match is marked as 1.1 odds for favorites while the team is not that strong that he can 100% beat the opponent team. Normally this happened on sports team that a huge fan base.

Fans usually bet on their favorite team regardless how weak they are in reality.

No bookmaker would give that kind of odds (1.10) if the team was not considered strong. Maybe in your own analysis they are not, but for the line provider they are, and that is enough to convince the public that this is the team to bet on.

Now it is your turn to see if there is real value there, because it is your job as a bettor to determine the true probability. If you are right, you get the profit.
Maybe with the odds that the bookies give to the team, for example, 1.50 - 1.70, the team is not too strong but with odds of 1.10 the team is strong and can win easily,
It can be said that with odds of 1.10 it is worth betting because the win rate is almost 90%.
There may be an occasion when betting 1.10 the team loses even though it is sure to win but this rarely happens with small odds.
I wouldn't say 1.1 is good odds, but I'm much more interested in big odds that allow me to find opportunities to bet, rather than events that are likely to happen, but then suddenly the profit evaporates because something unexpected happens and the 1.1 bet doesn't win. So, in my strategy, I see it this way, but I'm not saying it should be done this way; I just like it this way; I see a chance for success, maybe even over the long term if I'm lucky. In any case, it's important to recognize opportunities, not just bet and hope for luck—at least that's what I think.

Actually, a lot depends on the volume here, for example, for those who have a high stakes gambling volume, 1.1 odds are not bad at all, overall they have placed their bets on one kind under dog match. It is true that the outcome of gambling depends on luck and anything can happen, but in most cases if we look at the teams that show 1.1 odds, those teams win.
Considering this aspect, I wouldn't say it's bad, but we all need to remember that our staking amount should limit our ability to lose.

Betting against the public comes with a lot of risks because you are basically going in the opposite direction of what a lot of people are betting on but sometimes i think this is a wise thing to do because the casino or sports book use this to trick a lot of bettors. One thing I have learnt over the years is that it's not always about the odds, just because the favorite has a small odds doesn't mean that winning is guaranteed, it might surprise you that the underdogs given a high value odds will end up winning the match. Sometimes think out of the box.

Odds of 1.10 are not worth the risk, so you need to look for odds that are more appropriate because when 1.10 and not as expected you may be very disappointed because the bet loses even though the odds are small.

Odds that are worth betting in my opinion 1.50 - 1.70 the possibility of winning potential is still greater but choosing the right bet is certainly in your decision, because in sports betting there are many options to choose from.

Betting against the public comes with a lot of risks but sometimes those risks are worth taking, imagine betting on a game that everyone thought is impossible for it to come out as a win then you end up making a huge profit from it because it has a high value odd, I have been in positions like this where I didn't expect to win the bet due to the fact that it wasn't what the public went with but ended up with an unexpected outcome

I know many people who take this kind of risk and it turns out that they sometimes win big. So here it all depends on how gamblers view gambling and how they use their own strategy.

So, I guess it is all just a feeling. However, I think it has something to do with betting against the public, meaning I am going against the public prediction when I place the bet. Cmiiw.
I think the same as you, it's a feeling and sometimes people use Statistics based on the general feeling to make comparisons, but the truth is I'm never aware of this , Except when I bet on boxing, there I do see the trends and the general feeling that they usually don't find, but mind you, it's only in that sport.

It is true that it may be a nice choice to bet against the crowd, though more dangerous. Effectiveness in this kind of gambling usually lies in our capacity to think about the game in a different way and make our choices unaffected by the opinion of the majority. When this is successful consequences can be highly lucrative. Nevertheless, one should realise that determination and bravery is not the only way to win the game as a carefully planned strategy and proper knowledge of the game also play an essential role in success.

To be successful in gambling, you have to keep many things in mind, and even more important in gambling is patience and self-control. Because if you place a bet thinking of a tempting result, you may not get the correct result from it. Basically, gamblers create a strategy so that they can manage their money properly and bet on the right team at the right time. This is a very complicated matter, as a result of which not everyone succeeds here, as a result of which they end their journey with losses.

That's good but you should really have your own calculations well, not just gambling on big odds, we know betting against the public will get a big chance but that doesn't mean you have to act carelessly without a clear reason behind it regarding the bets you make.

I think the opportunity is worth taking despite the big risk, but of course with a clear reason before deciding to bet.

As I said, there is a lot of risk involved here. Those who take this type of bet take the risk knowingly, because here with a small amount of money at risk, a large amount of money can be won if the guess is correct. And that's why experienced gamblers take these bets only when they have a solid reason to think against the public. Gambling is always uncertain, so any decision here must be made carefully, otherwise the amount of losses will continue to increase.
