Every international break to me is an opportunity to take a break not because I can't place bets but I always use that opportunity to take a break and analyze for the next run...betting consistently without reevaluating your strategies isn't really advised, the international break gives me that opportunity to do that..But this is my approach it doesn't mean that applying it going to work for another bettor
International breaks are not very interesting to bet on, especially if your country is in the world cup, of course it would be great to watch it and bet on it.
My country failed to get a ticket and yes the world cup is not that interesting even though I definitely watch it / sometimes (only countries that are interesting to see) or matches that I think will be impressive to watch and bet on, I also haven't bet on international matches, maybe if it goes into the knockout stages it will follow it so that when watching it has a higher adrenaline and there is hope for a match.
