I let my instincts dictate my analysis is different, I can analyze how much I want the outcome of a match or who could advance a group in the case of the World Cup, but then I will still play what my instincts suggest.
Every time I play by calculating the percentages and then lose the bet I get sick, every time I play instinctively if I lose I don't get angry, it's a psychological issue and I mislead my mind.

If analysis can make someone win then experts in the game analysis would be rich and sportbookies will be bleeding their money and it is nto the case so no matter how good you are at your analysis you can still lose, the same way as you can win. Instinct is unpredictable but if you get the feel that they are winning then I wouldn't say no to that, because that is all the gambling is all about, dare to take the risk and see if you make it.

At times it do happen, I don't know if everyone experiences it but it actually do happen, where you would just decide to follow your instinct and before you even stake on it, your mind would start to reply the previous scenes where you also ignored your instincts and then posts your bet and after you remember that, you will just decide to follow your instincts on that one and end up still losing the bet. It has happened to me and it still happen at times except for some situations where I will have to bet on the game in different bookies and different options.

There are times when I let my instincts do the work because analysis isn't enough once you see the lines stay the same, even though the expected winner of the match looks obvious. These past few days of the World Cup, i've been placing bets on markets that I wouldn't normally touch, but it somehow works.

As much as analysis could give you the better chances of winning, it's not bad to listen to your gut feeling once in a while and go against the grain.

Yea I think analysis should always come first because it's based on data and statistics, while your instincts are like ften influenced by emotions or your favorite teams. If your analysis consistently points in one direction but you switch your prediction because of a feeling, you will probably end up regretting it more often than not, I usually trust my analysis over my instincts more and if my instincts are strongly disagreeing, I take it as a signal to recheck to just pause, i have come to the realization that you must not play everyhere match you see. So if you do your analysis and its not matching, you can always take break or just reexamine your research.

I had some few matches selected yesterday and during my analysis I was so sure that Netherland would win Tunisia but my instincts were very biased that the game would be draw, but even as that I didn’t care I had to give Netherland direct winning and they won. Moved to the next match, Japan and Sweden same thing happened to me where I was lost. Apparently, I knew it would be Draw game but was carried away that by instinct that Japan would win, then I had to give winning to Japan but guess what? The result was Draw.

As the title suggests, do you let your instincts disrupt your analysis?
The outcome of the games in this World Cup has been unpredictable. So many underdogs have put up some exceptional performances that have affected many bettors. So it is not out of place for gamblers to depend on their instincts instead of following analysis.

Tunisia has performed poorly in this competition so I would have paced bet on the Netherlands to win. Based on FIFA ranking, Japan is highly ranked over Sweden. And the Asian side has not recorded any loss. So I would have given Japan a win.

Yes, there were a lot of times of mine that I did disrupted my own analysis and followed the what if of my instincts.

The results were mixed but I have not regret them all because before betting, I've already accepted the risk and any possible outcome of it.

That's part of gambling and we shouldn't be surprised by that when that happens to us. Just follow what you think is right whether it's with your analysis or instincts. It's still your decision no matter what and just be ready for both possible results.

I don't have instincts or may be my brain too clouded to see 'em. But, I don't do any kind of analysis either, I watch games of the league I am betting on, and I let the knowledge gained work out spontaneously while making bets — there is no concious effort for the most part.
I can hardly believe anyone would bet on soccer without using analysis. Perhaps you have extensive knowledge and consider it normal, but there's actually something you believe in that's driving you to place that bet.

I believe analysis and instinct are used differently, as some forms of gambling rely solely on instinct, while others require analysis, such as soccer betting.

Believe what you want to believe, gambling will still end up humbling you, with your perfect strategy, great analysis or very good instincts, gambling doesn't care about them all, luck plays not a small role in gambling.

You can get lucky with your instinct today, and get lucky with a strategy tomorrow but that's the end, you can't even use your instinct twice and be right about it, that's when you will know that gambling is a game of luck.

I don't want to take a side, I can place bet on my instinct but it is not a must, most of the time I just place bet anyhow I feel about it, I have had my losses and also my wins.

I can't say that we will be free from instincts when selecting games to bet on, no matter what kind of analysis we have done. This is because our analysis cannot always give us the kind of results we need. Due to that, we can never be fully sure that the options predicted by our analysis will happen exactly as expected. That is what always gives instincts a role to play sometimes, it is even those instincts that help some gambler to win their bets. In fact, there are games where someone may do a very thorough analysis, but when it comes to selecting the game, they mistakenly choose the wrong option. I have experienced this myself. I wanted to pick the option for the home team to win both halves, but I mistakenly selected the option for the home team to win the first half. In the end, the home team won the match, and things happened that way.On the other hand, many of the games where I didn't make any mistakes in my selections ended up losing, especially since I was placing a parlay bet. So, let understand that winning bets depends a lot on luck and sometimes our instincts are what lead us to those winning selections.

We can be biased based on our own strategy, but we cannot deny that we still fail to achieve profitability in sports betting. Like you, I also have my wins and losses, but I know my losses are more than my wins. So even if I say I would choose instinct over analysis, or analysis over instinct, I still cannot deny that I am still losing overall.

So my point is, whatever makes us happy and gives us the thrill, that is something we should follow, as long as we can still control ourselves.

In a game of stats? There is no way my instinct will disrupt my game play, the only time I leave my choices to my instincts are when i really don't know what else to do, at that point my instincts become my only source but with this world cup so far slot of games have shown good predictablilty from their stats and while some games have deviated from ending the ideal way most still work under certain predictable outcomes, instincts are good when there are no other options but before then I would prefer the option provided by stats that my instincts.

The problem is gambling can be funny especially if you looked at a previous result or different game that had a draw, and what actually happened here is you were looking for patterns not that your gut feeling was guiding you  Roll Eyes we all have been there.. and trust me don't let instincts be in the driving seat take charge!!!

Otherwise with the worldcup, it's about who wants it more and ready to put up a fight!

For me, this is how I see it.

Instinct = emotion
Analysis = mind

In sports betting, we don’t win by emotion. It should be our mind and how good we are at analyzing the game, because that is what can make us profitable. So we have to be disciplined enough to follow our analysis. Because if most of the time our instinct disrupts our analysis, then it only means we are not strong enough to stick with what we studied.

In betting you can make all the analysis  and and still get it wrong, and that's is why it's based on luck if you had followed your instinct  you can still get it wrong because  it's just a prediction, I have followed my instinct  and won some bet and also lost many, betting  general  doesn't  have to do with you instinct  or your analysis  it's just result  of the game played a lot can happened  during  the course  of the game that may influence  the result.
If you knew  they will draw I don't know how you will be carried  away by your instinct just to pick another  option  this clearly  show you really  do not know they will draw you were just in doubt  and that how it is for every game no body knows the outcome  until after the game is played. Betting results  in general  doesn't  care about your instinct, emotions it just plays.

I don't have instincts or may be my brain too clouded to see 'em. But, I don't do any kind of analysis either, I watch games of the league I am betting on, and I let the knowledge gained work out spontaneously while making bets — there is no concious effort for the most part.
I can hardly believe anyone would bet on soccer without using analysis. Perhaps you have extensive knowledge and consider it normal, but there's actually something you believe in that's driving you to place that bet.

I don't bet on soccer, I only bet on cricket because I come from a region where cricket runs in blood, and I do think that I have extensive knowledge of it, and as I said earlier I let knowledge work itself out while placing bet(s).

I had some few matches selected yesterday and during my analysis I was so sure that Netherland would win Tunisia but my instincts were very biased that the game would be draw, but even as that I didn’t care I had to give Netherland direct winning and they won. Moved to the next match, Japan and Sweden same thing happened to me where I was lost. Apparently, I knew it would be Draw game but was carried away that by instinct that Japan would win, then I had to give winning to Japan but guess what? The result was Draw.

It is normal in many cases for your instincts to override your analysis and influence your judgements, and that happens to me a lot of times. This is because gambling is never assured and the result can come negative to the option you chose, so its not entirely a lose when you don't control the game.

Japan and Sweden are good countries and I predicted that it would be really tough game for both teams. It is wise to avoid games that are likely to end in a draw and bet on more sure games, most times bet on goals or Double Chance. There are other options aside the straight wins, it would be fun to try out some new options that feels a little safe. Don't you think?

It boils down to the saying, ignore your heart and follow your head, it's good you followed the path of good analysis and knowledge and not that of emotional analysis that came from within you and you won. But I must inform you that you just had luck with the games. A time would come when the instincts would be right, don't beat yourself, it's gambling and your luck wasn't just shining that day. Congratulations on your winning though. I like to stake on pure analysis and knowledge too, but sometimes, the counter advise in my head proves correct, that's just gambling and nothing is certain.

In a game of stats? There is no way my instinct will disrupt my game play, the only time I leave my choices to my instincts are when i really don't know what else to do, at that point my instincts become my only source but with this world cup so far slot of games have shown good predictablilty from their stats and while some games have deviated from ending the ideal way most still work under certain predictable outcomes, instincts are good when there are no other options but before then I would prefer the option provided by stats that my instincts.


For me, this is how I see it.

Instinct = emotion
Analysis = mind

In sports betting, we don’t win by emotion. It should be our mind and how good we are at analyzing the game, because that is what can make us profitable. So we have to be disciplined enough to follow our analysis. Because if most of the time our instinct disrupts our analysis, then it only means we are not strong enough to stick with what we studied.

That's exactly it, sports gambling isn't a game of emotions, anybody who wants to have any chance of winning any bets they place will have to use their heads about it, emotions will drive you astray but cold calculated analysis will show it's results eventually if you are lucky enough, if you know you want a particular team to win but you also know that they are most likely to lose then it's best to not bet on that game at all than to bet on the team you already know will most likely lose, there is absolutely no point in being emotional about sports gambling.

if there's one thing i know, is that. Never doubt your instincts. Instincts are based on mostly experince. But i am not saying they are always right. But they are right 95% of the time. Years of analysis can you trust your instincts if you do use them to bet games and see whether the results are good. Sometimes, you don't even need years. Just trust your guts. What is the highest thing that can happen, you just lose.
