Do you know this about betting on the underdogs? ‎

[Crypto_Timothy]

‎Betting on the underdogs either knowingly or by slight of finger can make them become top dog overnight. It’s the idea that betting volume doesn’t just reflect reality, but it can actually create a new reality for a team or sport.
‎ This is a scenario where an unpopular team or sport in any league division, suddenly becomes popular according to odds, stats on an increased fanbase, more picks and inclusion in more betting sites and also in their league division competitions.
‎
‎* Have you ever noticed this or have examples of actual teams, that became top dogs from being underdogs for a long time?
‎* How often do you bet on underdogs and most importantly, have you ever regretted doing so?

First off, it depends on if the underdogs are good, i mean if they are winning matches then we are talking business but if they are not wining, it will become pointless to bet on them everytime unless that is your favorite team or loyalty something, i mean not like betting on the underdogs will suddenly make them better you get, so unless the team is actually good and they win matches, i mean their performance is the only thing that will increase real stats for them, fan base is just one of the stats to have amongst many others.

The  fact that under dogs do win a match doesn't mean their name has changed no, the name will only change to top dog in that particular match that they won and been under dogs doesn't also mean a team can not win a match and this is why football becomes hard or difficult to forecast sometimes because of this thing, you can be undermining a team not knowing they are going to win, let's take Real Madrid game as a reference case, no one believed they will loss 2:1 against Osasuna that is not strong but yet they are under dog compare to Real Madrid. I only bet on under dog when I want to take risk because their odds are always high and I don't regret because I do it intensional.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I don't frequently bet on underdogs to observe the changes but like every other options in sports betting which is not consistent, that's also these underdogs can be, sometimes the bookies could be wrong in their ratings since after the team must have improved but if you follow the option always, always redo your analysis on the team you are betting on.

I dont see a lot of that team suddenly getting popular just because of betting, I mean, there are some times where weak teams are suddenly able to go beast mode and beat most of the top teams, surprisingly able to go to the top 5, etc. Then doing a decent job compared to their past records, making them popular easily and becoming a huge underdog. After a few games there are a lot of bets already that is going to be favor on that teams, since they suddenly prove that they can do a good job, plus getting a lot of fans because of the sudden wins and betting a great team, I guess getting popular is going to give them some kind of boost and confident to up there games.

Maybe the Jazz, when they suddenly do a record on the NBA, on most wins, I think.

I mean to be honest, I mostly do bets on the underdog teams just especially on the final games, where we could see a lot of that coming, For sure most of the time I regret doing that because I just end up losing, and that happened to me a lot, but it just a great feeling when you are able to break the odds of the game, being able to win or betting on the underdog, and knowing that the team is going to somehow win.

Underdogs is a situation were a team with the smaller odds of winning goes ahead and cause an upset by winning the team with the most popular odds.Betting an underdog team is risk because usually it involves a team that is usually struggling or is coming from a Lowe division to the main league.This types of cases is seen in cup games were teams from a lower league is grouped with teams that, are playing above them in a league.


Those who take the risk of betting in underdog are risk takers, and one thing that should be noted about underdog games is that, anyone betting on them will be losing money because, it's not everyday that they will win. But when the winning streak of such game starts it usually cause upset as they such teams Make waves a typical example of one underdog team this season is Como in the Italian seria A.

This is reminiscent of the Girona team a few seasons ago where they were the superior team during that season even though they did not win but they managed to attract the attention of many bettors, only after the season ended they sold players and returned to being the underdog team.

I don't often bet on underdogs because the reality is that they tend to lose more than they win, but I don't know about the lower leagues, I only bet on other European leagues.

[rachael9385]

First of all I haven't really noticed that the underdogs can move from being in this category to the top dog just because people bet more on them, I don't think that's how it works. I have placed bets on the underdogs on few occasions and some were profitable and as for the ones that I lost I didn't really have any regrets because my stakes were low. I always stake extremely low amounts of money on big odds.

You let me remember when Leicester City won the English Premier League many years ago. Its team played their last 2 or so of their previous season excellently but it was close to relegation, but not knowing that the club will become something better in the following season. If I remember very well, I remember only Arsenal that won the club that season both home and away while other good clubs like Manchester City were  disciplined by Leicester. I remember something, that when Leicester was playing, the bookies still prefer to give the club high odds but the club was the one winning.

The same happened to Bundes Liga warrior RB Leipzig, who went from lower division league, can't remember and take the Bundes Liga title some years ago, it was really surprising and amazing seeing such undergoes becoming overdog

Leicester City and Leipzig has been the two underdogs who surprised the whole world and became the big boys, Bayer Leverkusen did tried but they weren't underdogs though.

[Churchillvv]

I don’t follow up clubs or sports betting that much to an extent of knowing what club has become favourite after many years of being underdog but of course I know that if a club that is reach enough but is an underdog always signs a good player who is well known for his presence to make a good change, someone like MESSI regardless it’s a teamwork kind of thing but if they succeed in signing such player they can easily become top dogs according to your words.m and this is determined by fan base of the player etc so that is absolutely possible.

Betting the underdogs is not what can be done too often because of the risk we may have to lose the bet than winning, this is why many prevented themselves from such consideration, but the actual fact is that once a while, the opportunity for them to shine also comes and they win and perform well, but this is not just common the same way we do see the big teams win their games more often.

[Agbe]

I think performance is actually what matters than bet volume, a team is determined to be an underdog based on how they perform compared to the other team. personally I don't really bet on the underdogs because I always think that the risks are too but sometimes they end up winning the teams that we think are in a perfect form. The odds can be very misleading that's why a smart bettor shouldn't bejudge only based on the odds set by the bookies.

[Anayochukwu]

I always have this reservation in betting on underdog clubs until recently when Bodø/Glimt won Manchester city in the UEFA champions league. I decided to give them a try when they faced another top European club Atletico Madrid and they delivered by winning. I also banked on them against inter Milan in both legs of the champions league playoffs and they delivered, and that has has really changed my perspective about underdog teams. When you bet on underdogs teams and they win for you the feeling is far more sweeter than when a big team win bets for you.

It's good that you made it through with this underdog team that is a great opportunity for you and I am glad that you utilized the game because sometimes we don't need to be over scared of underdog teams because there's nothing good than seeing yourself in a winning streak with an underdog team, that feeling alone can even trigger you to look for more underdog teams Lol. To be honest I have not bet with such confidence before but I am just happy to see that Bodo/Glimt delivered for you without any mistake because Bodo are really underdog team to them.

It is much closer to the quality of the performance of the team than it is just to examine the amount of transactions on the betting market. Although there exist high chances of selecting an underdog, there are very significant surprises which we tend to see when the performance of the favourite fails to rehearse expectations. We know that the figures of bookmakers are just statistical instruments which occasionally do not reflect the reality on the pitch. By critical and independent analysis, we are likely to stay out of the numbers trap.

‎Betting on the underdogs either knowingly or by slight of finger can make them become top dog overnight.

Do you mean that peoples bet in underdog can influence the team to perform better and become the top dog, is that what you are saying?  Which in another word, you are saying that underdogs team draw motivation from the bets of people and then they will become popular and top dogs, I don't even see how this is possible unless it's just a coincidence, underdogs will not become top dogs unless they stand up for themselves and decide to perform better because it's when they do better that they will become popular, I don't think it's by peoples bet.

‎* Have you ever noticed this or have examples of actual teams, that became top dogs from being underdogs for a long time?
‎* How often do you bet on underdogs and most importantly, have you ever regretted doing so?

I don't think that's possible cause betting on underdogs don't necessarily give  the team a positive appearance cause the bets can't be easily altered cause they are basically unpredictable. But then I don't know how possible and effective the scenario of betting underdogs on your favourite team can be plus I can't risk doing so talk more of regretting it later on.

There is a high cost in terms of psychology and money involved in putting our hopes on an underdog team. In my opinion, the indeterminacy of the result will strongly make any speculative choice so hard to make without profound suspicion. It is necessary to say that it is the future regrets with which we most do not want to deal with when it comes to our personal finances. I do concur that more important is the security of capital than merely scramble on a less than favourable result against the underdog team.

[stadus]

Don’t focus too much on whether a team is the underdog or the favorite. What really matters is the value on the line. Sometimes the value is on the dog, sometimes it’s on the favorite.

If you stay neutral and just evaluate the numbers on the board, you won’t be biased. Look at the line, compare it to how you see the matchup, and ask yourself if there’s real value there. That’s where the bet should be. If you’re just blindly backing underdogs all the time, that’s your heart making the decision, not your mind. And that’s a mistake. In the long run, emotional betting will cost you.

[Odusko]

It does happen in several ways, a good example is if you look at some past experience with a soccer match for instance, a small team can suddenly come to stardom and beat a big team, even though all of us know that this may not be a frequent occurrence, but we can't really deny that it happens once in a while.

Yes even though that small clubs can beat big clubs, this can't be Said that the small team can come to limelight, because their winnings is just based on luck and chances, which means even if they can win, being consistent at it is another thing we should look at in all of this, for you to bet on the underdog, what you should do is that you wait to bet on the live games, this is because those live games record will already give you an insight to the performance of the team already, instead making a pre game selection of underdog that will put your bet at risk.

What you’re saying is true, but that doesn’t mean we should blindly bet on the underdog either.

If we’re just talking about who wins outright based on averages, most of the time it’s the favorites. That’s obvious. But most of us don’t really bet moneyline favorites at heavy odds, we usually look for even money or better, which is why we move to point spreads. That’s where it becomes more realistic if you actually want to test your skills.

Still, automatically betting favorites isn’t the answer either. Laying big juice over and over is not a solid long term strategy. It might work sometimes, but over time it can eat your bankroll. At the end of the day, it’s not about dog or favorite. It’s about whether the line is priced correctly. If there’s value, you take it. If not, you pass. That’s the discipline most bettors struggle with.

I have noticed this thing in league games, especially in the Champions League. An underdog in the champions is becoming a top team due to the number of bettors who predict in favor of them. In the domestic league, an underdog will always be an underdog. Actually, in a case where two underdogs are to face one another in a single game, one will become the favorite while the other will become an underdog. These are the two cases where an underdog can become a top team.
