Do you prefer being on your own with your matches and bets or do you like to take part in various tournament to boost the competitive spirit of it all?

It's not that I preferred one over one but there will really be a time wherein we want to get out to our usual way of betting and try something new. As always, if that certain tournament catches my attention, there's a chance that I might participate in it depending on the tournament structure and obviously, if I know I can manage it well along the way.

Being involved in a tournament is not new to my vocabulary and there are already lots of times I've taken part in it.

Engaging in competition betting kind of take your prediction skills to a whole new level. The desire to win kind of pushes you to the edge of prediction, now you no longer bet just for the fun as most persons do or just to win the bet but, to be as accurate on your predictions as possible. You tend to consider every statistics that exists including other peoples bets and the reason behind there predictions. This is what your likely not to consider when being a lone bettor, your choice of game and your interest on what option to bet on becomes your limitation. But in competitive betting, you are challenge a more tasking betting and wager for which you try to be as accurate as possible and it gives you a sense of pride each time you actually get it right.

I prefer to stay on my own and bet on my own but I'm not closing my door of joining one soon. I want to feel what others feel when they're part of the tournament.

Personally, I like to participate in the group competition as it is so much fun and you know where you are on ranking. What strategy is working and what not and then you put you think caps on in each and every match in order to get the best of the points in that coming matches and also to move ahead in the contest. It’s challenging but you feel good when you see your improving at the end of the overall contest.

With the ranking, I'm sure that I won't be good at it that's why I don't want to join for now but in the future, I want to experience it.

I used to avoid competitions and preferred to just place my own bets on sports to see how it goes. I was glad to win and sad to lose, and it was between me and sports. In autumn, however, I entered a Sportsbet EPL prediction competition, and after months of it going on, I must say that I do find it engaging when various people make predictions for the same games, and then I can see how other people are making their decisions and how they are performing as well. At first, I thought I had no chance there, but I'm currently lucky to be in top-10, so now I do care about remaining there

Is about having fun, so for me is more fun when you play with others, whether that is in a competitive league or, my favourite, with friends while watching a game. The key to have fun is too keep it a game and not getting "to hot" in your head. Remember that, after all, they are friends and only momentarily rivals.

For a long time I have liked to join a competition or tournament run here on bitcointalk whether it has full sponsorship or not, because as far as I can remember that tournament initially had no sponsors but this season Sportsbet became a sponsor. So, usually I will only look at what kind of games are used in the competition, because I will only join if it is a game I like, such as sports betting and dice because so far I think those two games are the most often in competitions or tournaments here.
So, as long as it's a bet you like and you are used to doing it, then I don't think you need to hesitate because winning and losing in a competition is a common thing and you have to be aware of that.

That's the good part of it, knowing that in each events you are getting familiarize and sooner or later you'll be able to find yourself building good system to enhance your chances.

It's interesting as there are many competitors who happens to have the same intent in winning the competitions. Very falttering once you able to bring yourself at the top spot.

And much better if you win the entire challenge.

I used to be a competative one back then whenever me and my friends are making bet and I really like how it is.
We could really know and learn some of their point of view why would they pick the team or fighter that they would bet on.
I only bet on the team or fighter that I know and it is good to have those kind of talk so you would learn more.
But due to pandemic we rarely hang out and talk about it we got busy on our own lifes.

Its good to have some friends that have the same interest in gambling because at moments, you can help lift one another and share insights regarding different bets that you have made. In a way, you could try and spice up your friendship by seeing you can make the most winning bets within a month by trusting his gut. Having the ability to bet on it can raise the morale between friendship because everyone will be scared to make a losing bet.

Being a lone bettor can have its consequences because most of the time, you are only relying on the odds that you are seeing and yes you can win but its still better to get some insights by someone you trust.

its not competitive when you are playing on your own .
competitive is in its word to compete or to join a competition , we dont boost our competitive spirit when we play alone but it will get boosted if you join a competition and you try your best .
your journey of being a loner to competitor can inspire other gamblers to try to compete if they start as a loner because the reason why they dont want to try is because they are afraid to fail .

I guess it is much quite exciting playing with other competitors than just playing with your own, on your own matches. I guess from here you can develop your skills and tactics on how to beat them, and also fron here you can learn which strategies you have that need to retain or the one that need to change. For me, playing with your own was enjoyable also but you only limiting yourself from the fact that you can explore more about gambling or betting.

I've been betting for a lot of years I don't remember when I start actually but again its better if we have engaged in the thing we love which is sports betting also I can add e-sports betting because it's the same with the also right now this is the most popular fewer interactions with another player just through the online world.

If I know the team that I would like to get I go for it but sometimes there are no matches that I know the players still it's required to research more information so I can choose wisely the odds but if the game has an underdog this is the chance good for a Yolo bet or a risky bet which can double or nothing your earnings.

When I was new I like to consider the pick of other people but when the time come that I already learned the basic and other things, I already started to trust myself and just analyze by my own. So far so good, at least whatever the outcome, it's all about me and if I lose I have nothing to blame but my self.

If people can still give or share their choice and get a good result, we can still follow them. We can pick our own choice for some time to feel another experience and see if we already improve our skills to analyze the team. If we still pick the wrong team, maybe we need to learn more to improve our skills by learning from other people choose. That can give benefits to us to know how to analyze better from those people.

I try not to be competitive on gambling since it could results to unnecessary losses when you're constantly comparing your results to other people which you don't know them, but as long as you're on the safe side and you're not invested too much in it I think you will be fine either way.

The fact is the more competitive it gets, the more emotional it will be and you don't want to get feelings involved in such an addictive entertainment such as gambling, so at the end it's just a matter of how much money you invested in it and whether you're confident you won't go out of your way and start gambling with the money that was not intended for gambling when you feel you're behind someone else in terms of winnings.

Playing as a competitive one is fun and it satisfies me whenever I got prizes, whenever I and my friends are sports betting then that would makes me a competitive one not just a selfish thing but a competitive one to win the sports betting, it would be more fun if they would win as well. This is a really good thing because I and my friends are sharing ideas and opinions but sometimes whenever they have different points then that would make our bets different from each other.

Quote from: ?? on ??

me either i used to bet alone and avoid competitions thinking that im too small for them but if im not destined to be poor and a small gambler, why not ?

Actually those small ones can also win the game, you may try to be the competitives ones so that you may feel also the same way as ours.

I am definitely a lone bettor now, I used to chat with people and that made me stay in the casino a lot more, back in the day chat places weren't 100 message in 10 seconds type of places and we talked with friends and basically it was the same group every day and we were having fun and this caused me to be there almost every day, this is why I decided not to do it anymore, now I am focusing more on things like just gambling and going away, if I stay there even when I am not gambling that would hurt me a lot more and that is why I do not think that it should be there for now.

This doesn't mean that I would not talk with some people, I would still talk with them if I know them or if they are saying something that gets my interest, but I do not really gamble in group settings that well, not even poker, I just gamble all alone and feel better about it.

Gambling generally deals with 90% luck and 5-10% analysis and emotions.

For casino games that would be an accurate ratio but when it comes to sports betting luck won't be as high as 90% since you can choose the games you bet on.

Quote from: jrrsparkles on March 17, 2021, 12:05:46 PM

Being competitive while betting is actually a very bad thing financially because we may forced to bet more and more beyond our limits when our opposition is doing it but the financial status can be completely different on both the sides.I am also used to bet on my own and never wanted to be competitive with a stranger, sometimes it is acceptable when we are gamble with out friend gang.

While you have a point there, being competitive doesn't always mean you have to bet more since there's several contests that only requires a one time entry fee like the one OP is currently participating.

Gambling generally deals with 90% luck and 5-10% analysis and emotions. You don't know what your fellow bettor might decide to pick that would be the best option at the market, it sometimes encourages one to relate with other bettors to understand many things better. It's actually great relating with some other bettors who reason alike and analyse together.

I'm currently lucky to be in top-10,

Congratulations on your feet, it's actually awesome relating with others who are on the same field with yourself, competition sometimes actually grows one.

I always prefer to play on my own and apply my own strategies in gambling. I used to play against other bettors and compete with them but I ended up being disappointed and uncontested which ended up in certain losses and regrets. If I'm doing it alone, I could concentrate better and I could handle my funds well.

I am avoiding competition as i do think it will put more pressure and i end loosing rather than having a cool time gambling. If you think and you are winning congrats on you and i might join a competition at a later time when i am free off tensions and nothing to worry. Right now i do have a regular job and watching sport and betting is my only pass time, until then i might continue being a lone better.
