Betting on major competitions

[laspol65]

I like to bet on sports the most, football is one of them, in football I bet more on these seasonal games because the World Cup is held every four years, which is why I don't sit around during this time. I bet patiently with small amounts of money and like to bet more often. I don't save money for this World Cup football match on a weekly or monthly basis.
But I save some of my income annually, which I will use later. From there I bet on World Cup matches.

It's more or less the same for me, but I do remember taking unusual bets like outrights aside from the common markets because there were a bunch of good promotions that might not happen again until the next one

I don't separate my bankrolls for specific events, so that's an easy no. Instead of a separate bankroll, I always have a bunch of coins spread around a few sportsbooks in case I can get better odds or offers from their promotions.

If you ask a Premier League fan that question, they'll tell you they hate the World Cup or any national team tournament. In fact, the only international tournament they accept is the Champions League, and if their team loses there, the magic is gone; they lose interest.

However, the world is completely captivated by the World Cup. It's a time when fans and non-fans alike follow the tournament. Even if their country isn't in the World Cup, people adopt teams as their own, and that's unique. No other sport or event does it. The world literally unites for football, and this, in turn, brings with it one of the most deeply ingrained aspects of modern society: betting. There are people who may have never placed a bet themselves, but they participate in football pools at work, with family, and so on. And it might not be a traditional bet, but it's in a way a "bet" for fun, or for the thrill of saying, "I bet on team X or Y to be world champions."

Now, the reality is that it's an event with a lot of variance to bet on, so in reality, entertainment is paramount.

And even today, I still enjoy betting more and even set aside more money just for these competitions

I can understand that feeling, because world cup is an event which happens only once every 4 years, while gathering many national teams from different countries in the world together. During world cup, hardly ever people pay attention to another sports and competitions, because all their focus is directed to this global championship, and consequently, bets will be also focused on that.

[Cantsay]

Hmmm.. I don't really fancy betting on a national team tournament. I just don't feel that pull towards that space, I prefer betting on unknown teams and leagues rather than betting on the World Cup.

So, there really isn't any increased bet for me or separate allocation. If for any reason any game catches my attention I just stake the same amount I would stake on my favourite league and I won't take it as an extra but rather as my entire bet. Meaning, I won't stake on the World cup and still look for something else to stake on. I treat it as a normal bet and not a joke.

It really depends on the bettor's preference here. And of course, the sports he is more comfortable betting with. That is why, every bettor has his own niche, where he can bet at his own pace. And with such variations, we can't really generalize the preference of bettors.

[tabas]

Not really and I will only do that if my mind tells me so. So, it's usually a random pick of mine to bet on these competitions. If there's something that catches my eye with it and that made me interested in it, I might do it. As for the bankroll, I set some fixed amount for the bets that I make and that becomes the whole budget that I'll spend for gambling either with these important competitions or just with some casual games that I like to pick and bet in it. But it doesn't change anymore the reason why I bet these days, to have fun but I am not denying that I hope to get some profits.

I actually make more profitable bets during world cup competitions because it seems I understand the teams and their strengths without much need for team history stats but for star players and the managers that handle the teams instead. It's just more easier than the EPL or champions League unless in the early on stages and final stages where things are hotter for the top spot.

Everyone bettor has their own favorite competition to bet on but the bottom line is that when it comes to your favorite the cash is always available.

And that is your strength. Continue to bet on the world cup if you have that strength to know the teams and you can make good analysis from within. Because those who just known to the world cup and lacks of understanding in the participating teams, they'll have a hard time in making almost winning bets. This how sports betting should be, not to do it randomly but to prove ourselves that we're knowledgeable towards the sport and the teams per se. We're betting to make some wins and not just to support and have some fun.

You can call it that way, like a niche or something. But still up to anyone which one they wanted to bet. There are some that loves games like slots. But for us we followed certain sports and that's where we are good are.

Sports betting is massive in most countries, and I do estimate that roughly billions are betting transacted in crypto base and others like fiat specially in big major sports and the numbers are going to grow every year

On the look of it, gambling increases during major competitions like the World cup, many spectators who don't get involved in league footballs, attend or watch the world cup to support their nation. This has to do with patriotism for most bettors, no longer about winning, but to show how well they think their nation would win against another country.

[POPOLUV]

I do not bet on World Cup and Continental Cups.

I bet just on matches in Leagues like English Premier League and other top leagues like La Liga, French Lique 1, Bundesliga, Eredivisie and Portuguese Primeira Liga.

I can also go for some leagues in Asia and Africa and also United States MLS.

I prefer to only go for casinos games when countries are competing.

Same here, i don't really bet on world cups based on say i don't find favour of winning once i predict on world cups and i do by pass any period they are playing world cups, and better still i do go for a break if there are no reasonable leagues to risk my money on, and since the Leagues are ending their season gradually by gradually, that is how i will be reducing my budget on gambling to be able not to waste more money since the English League, Turkish League, Spanish league, Ukraine league and Netherlands, there are still many more leagues that i place my betting, and mostly on weekends like this.

Well, you are right but the thing is that there is also disadvantage because if they bet on the team they love and eventually they lose, it will hit them emotional which will even ruined their lives because they can be pushed to engage in careless gambling and this will really not help them in any way. That is why they are to treat gambling as the same, every single time they gamble to avoid being hurt or be in trouble.

A few years ago, I started betting because of the World Cup
At the time, I didn’t even know what BTC was, and if my memory serves me correctly, it was during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa

And even today, I still enjoy betting more and even set aside more money just for these competitions

Do you guys also place more bets during the World Cup, for example?
Do you set aside a separate bankroll for this competition?

Oh, I remembered the 2010 World Cup in South Africa one of the best memories I have was the quarter finals between Ghana and Uruguay. I am yet to forgive Luis Suárez.

Well, I do not place more bets during World Cup matches. I think what attracts most bettors are the Quarter, Semi, and Finals. That's where heavy bets are made. And in this forth coming World Cup tournament, it is not going to be any different.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Well, I think my pattern of betting is always the same no matter the event I'm betting on, that's because I do follow my intuition most of the time, depending on the urge I'm having for the competition that is currently on going. If season is on, I don't keep more money to use for betting, I will still stake just with the available funds I can afford, same behavior I always observe even during wolrd cup, I do not stake more than what I can not lose or what I think is too much for me to put in gambling. For me, the major competition doesn't change the fact that the outcome is still understand probability, so I don't push myself to the deep.

[shawonngp]

Yes, the World Cup is always a special competition to me. I think many are eagerly waiting for it when it starts. Because it is held every four years, it is a big excitement for many. I especially enjoy the World Cup a lot, and for this competition, I plan to at least double the gambling budget, because I can gamble with my favorite team. But I like to do responsible gambling, so I don't bet such large amounts in any game with enthusiasm, which I can't afford to lose, even though I think the matches in the World Cup are very unpredictable, because a big team can lose to a small team. So there is no guarantee that your favorite team will always win.

[Findingnemo]

The viewership will increase for the world cup because of less soccer playing nations will also be a part of the big stage but it is something that happens once in a while so even regulars might treat it as special occasion for their nation but the leagues are more popular and games are more often so a regular soccer better might spend more money in the leagues than the world cup. I am not really a sports bettor, so I treat every game as equal when it comes to betting because the betting itself happens on social occasinos.

I don`t make classical bets during such competitions. But we make bets with fixed bet size with my colleagues and my family. If someone predicted score - he get the bank. If someone predicted the winner - he get a half of bank. We have a special copybook, where we record all our bets and results.

PS. Sometimes i bet on my favorite teams, but it is rare enough and it is always a small bet, so i don`t care about profit. Just some kind of support(in my mind).

[Grace333]

I personally don't like to bet on the World cup games because unlike the club group these individuals players coming together from different team may not understand themselves like they do with their team mates in their respective clubs however the opposite of what I said might also happen. Having some key players in your national team can also motivate other to put on their best performance with the aim of wining the competition so the unexpected is likely to happen and that is why I dont like to bet on national team competition.

Well you know world cup doesn't come often like the league games. I do bet on world cup when the time has reached but it cant be tested because getting analysis correctly may not be possible or easily like the regular league game. I prefer normal game to world cup game but it doesn't mean that I don't bet on world cup.

[Doan9269]

Betting a major competition does not make the difference or create the chances for us to win, it could come as a major league or other form of competition in betting as long as we are taking the risk to gamble and stand the chance of winning or to lose, it is more likely that they choose any of their preferred competition or league to bet, this ensures that they utilize the opportunity well for fun and their own individual benefits of winning if the luck comes.

I will be betting on the world cup, which is the same as the previous world cup but I don't place many bets, unlike when betting on club competitions, because honestly it is very difficult to predict matches in the world cup, there are quite a lot of countries that I don't know in terms of strength.
And regarding the allocation of betting funds, no I don't have a special fund for this event.
