Analysis based on stats might be useless

[fruktik]

Some gamblers just don't wanna come to the acceptance that the game is built to favour the casinos more than the gamblers, they don't wanna accept the fact that the odds are stacked up against them, so when they eventually begin to experience repeated losses, they often forget that that's just the natural order of gambling and start looking for who or what to blame, and of course the easiest people to blame is the casinos and the also the match fixture and rigging excuses. It's true that stuffs like this do happen, but just like you said, this isn't something we see everyday.

Most people don't want to accept their mistakes as their own. Naturally, it's much easier to blame someone else for their failures. It's so easy and convenient, isn't it? The fear of taking responsibility is incredibly frightening. I myself was once one of those people. Only over the years did I come to the realization that I alone was to blame and suffered the negative consequences.

What's important? Coming to this understanding. Only from this point does a person become wiser. This is the main task. Then comes acceptance and then a decision.

Yea, hoping completely on luck in sports betting, in my opinion, it's a sign of lack of experience and also means that the person is taking sports betting just as every other RNG games which is based only on luck and not skill. Like I have also said before, which is in agreement with what you said, having a good skill in making predictions already gives us an edge to winning more often than a bettor who is completely focused just on luck.

Experience gives us edge during our gambling time and it does boost our chances of winning at times but it all comes down to luck to be honest. Luck is one of the important factors we shouldn’t underestimate when gambling because that what structure the outcome of our gambling not our experience or little knowledge.
 We might not have much knowledge or experience at all in gambling activities but we can start today and win massively if luck is on our side. It doesn’t matter either we have experience or not luck plays the big bad guy here.

 At least I guess you are learning little things about soccer from your coworkers and with time you wi understand more and more if you pick interest or finds it interesting but if you don’t then it fine.

Your skills doesn't make you win, the only thing that skills does for a gambler is to increase their chances, but if there's no luck by your side, there's really nothing your skills can do for you, except of course the game in question isn't luck based but skill based games, then we can say the gambler doesn't actually need luck to win, but if the game is luck based, or a mixture of both luck and skill like in games like sports betting, then you sure need to depend on luck to win.

Skills can only increase the chances of winning but it does not guarantee us to be able to get a victory, even I think that no matter how good the skills are, the results of winning are not determined or not determined by the skills but how strong the luck is in our favor.

Even so I don't think those who use statistics in addition to analyzing are wrong, because even that can be useful but only to increase the chances of winning. After all, all types of games that are said to be gambling definitely require luck but not all require skill.

I trust in my luck, but I don't know much about casino games or sports.,My coworkers talk about soccer all the time, and after hearing them talk about it so much, I've got a pretty good idea of ​​what they know. They talk about everything, but they say a lot of things they know who's injured, who's going to the World Cup, who wasn't called up, which players are doing well or poorly, and they turn on their TVs to watch the games. They don't care about work that whole environment is a great learning experience because they say things that make a lot of sense and that they pick up on during the matches.

So do you think your colleagues make more successful predictions and bets because they stay actively immersed in the context and know the nuances related to matches and players? I think there is some truth to that. I have a similar feeling about Fantasy Premier League, which I take part in, but I understand football very poorly. I know at least something about national teams, but I definitely lack knowledge about English clubs. And it seems to me that all the other participants know much more, which is why they are higher in the standings and generally have excellent results. I am sure this cannot be explained иcключитeльнo by luck alone, although I do not deny the role of luck either

Of course because statistics are the only data we can use to analyze sports that can help us to improve the winning chance. Stats doesn’t lie but the interpretation is the one that sometimes make the analysis less accurate.

Betting wisely with guidelines of the records that happened in the previous match is much better than relying in sheer luck when gambling. Doing an analysis also adds more fun on sports betting because it makes the game proving your point for analysis.

Yep. Analyzing statistics of the teams/players is one of our efforts to improve the chance of winning. Sure, it is the fact, it never lies. However, the condition of the teams/players can change, so we can't solely analyze the data only. We must also need to analyze the change of the teams/players. Well, there is no 100% accuracy because the factor that determines the winning in the match are complex. It also includes the luck factor, too. This is something that we can't analyze.  

Betting wisely with guidelines of the records that happened in the previous match is much better than relying in sheer luck when gambling. Doing an analysis also adds more fun on sports betting because it makes the game proving your point for analysis.

Although the analysis can't guarantee for the winning, but I agree that doing analysis is much better than relying on the luck only. At least, we know which teams/players that have a bigger chance to win the match. So, we can improve the chance to win our bets.

Football lovers know a lot about almost everything, and they talk about it. You will be surprised by some talk as if they were always there with the players. Any game we miss to watch, we read and watch the highlights later to get the information, but there should be a limit to it. Know when to talk about sport, and when you are in your workplace and should be focusing, you can enjoy those stories, but don't allow them to distract you from work.

I myself rarely do sports betting, once I do sports betting it is done when my favorite team plays and I don't do any analysis just bet to add to the excitement of the game.

If we do bet with a type of game that basically has a way to increase the chances of winning then yes it is better to take advantage of the method than to rely entirely on luck. I myself if I really like to bet sports by not only betting on my favorite team then I will do this to increase the chances of winning.

Maybe we think it’s rigged because the outcome didn’t go the way we expected.

This is always how some bettor's normally feel when things didn't go as planned. When the game is not in their favour they start thinking otherwise, but when it favour them everything is fine then . Moreover, that is why gamble is seen as a game of chance, we don't have to be always certain that things must always be in our favour all the time, at least learn to accept it when it didn't fall in your favour to make things easy for you as well. And again, this is the more reasons it's advisable we gamble with what we can afford to lose so that if things didn't go down well with us we wouldn't start digging holes to find out why it didn't happen in a way that will favour us .

It's true, except in this case even the boss is a football fan too. He places bets, but I don't know where he does it. And now with the World Cup, he's already said he's going to put TVs everywhere in the company so everyone can enjoy all the games. So that will be a treat for football lovers. I'll get a double dose of football day and almost night. He'll also go to some US football matches, so that will be quite a party.

[memehunter]

if the result is already controlled, then all that analysis becomes useless.

So you are referring to match fixing here? If you believe that majority of matches are fixed than there there is no way you will be doing enough research as you will not see any value. AFAIK the professional sports bettors aim for 10-12% yearly profit on their investments so you really need to be sports betting scalper to add every odd advantage.

Some bettors put a big emphasis on stats and trends when they make a bet.
The thing is there is so much variance in sports that sometimes all that data you collect doesn't end up favoring your decision.

A lot of bettors overthink and also do a lot of analysis thinking that this actually guarantees that they are actually going to win. No matter how well we analyze our bets we must always remember that betting is a game of probability, you can take out your time to do a lot of analysis and still end up losing. Sports betting Also requires luck to win sometimes, that's the more reason why it's important to always stake responsibly cause nothing is guaranteed.

There is no guaranteed that one will always win in gambling with their analysis and skills because, if gambling happens to work that way, then it means its no longer game of fun but a game of making money, but since its not that way, we have to just accept the fact and move on, rather than putting our lives at stake for something that won't even benefit one in any way instead it will cause one more harm than good in our lives.

In the end, we return to the definition of gambling, which is a probability activity that depends on luck. There must be a strong goal to win behind the hard work in analyzing, and this also means that when the results are not as expected, the disappointment can be more significant. So, it's okay if you want to be more diligent in analyzing, but you must not forget that losing is still part of the game because there is an aspect of luck that cannot be overcome in any way. Your last idea is correct.

Though it's not a guarantee that the team or players will play the same way from thier last performances, but still data and stats will help you to find valid reason why you will going to pick or select the team that you'll going to support for your bets, similar to what you said, it's better than relying completely with luck, in most time you feel the enjoyment when after doing your research you manage to pick the right one that wins, it's adding to the entertaining part of your gambling session.

As long as the game is being played by humans and not robots, all the data we have can't always give us what we want; the result can always change to what we did not expect at any time to show us that not everything can just be decided based on data. In most cases, even the players themselves can't predict the outcome of their game as soon as the match kicks off.

Every game will give us surprises and may not live to our expectations. Of course, we can't say, we know the end game because it is not. Even if we know the performance of every athlete involved, the game inside the arena can change real quick.

You can not always hope on luck for you to be always profitable as a gambler. You need to add your skill so that it can make way for you when luck is not available to help you become profitable. Gambling in sport bet need skill which involves the ability for you to understand the history which can help you to make big money from betting.

Your skills doesn't make you win, the only thing that skills does for a gambler is to increase their chances, but if there's no luck by your side, there's really nothing your skills can do for you, except of course the game in question isn't luck based but skill based games, then we can say the gambler doesn't actually need luck to win, but if the game is luck based, or a mixture of both luck and skill like in games like sports betting, then you sure need to depend on luck to win.

Skills in sport betting can only increase your potential of winning but not a guaranteed for winning because gambler's have the habits of thinking that because they are active in football game's watching and analysing the game make them to believe and trust in they own analysis but in most cases you have to depend only on luck and your risk management to actually make something sensible out of your bets.

In gambling, most things are really unpredictable.

So for me, whichever works best for us then we just have do it.

Analysis are helpful and all sorts of factors that can help us decide which one to bet. It can be validate by each of us based on results or even in mere opinions.
