A lone sports bettor, in my opinion, is someone who does not rely on another person to interpret the odds and advise them which sporting event to wager on. Before placing a bet, the lone gambler conducts his own study and analysis.

Even a so-called lone bettor will look at other opinions to validate his predictions, its part of the analysis in sports betting checking if he overlooks something and needs to double-check or re-analyze

Quote

In contrast, a team sports bettor, in my opinion, is a member of a betting community or group on Telegram, Facebook, or Twitter that is led by a self-described expert in sports betting. He or she chooses the game on which to make their wager after conducting the necessary research and analysis on their behalf.

Sports bettors usually start in a group but after some time do their own analysis because they usually learn how to analyze and how to analyze, this is how I start I used to be a member of a group until I left the group because the subscription is going up now I prefer to do my analysis but look on other people's predictions to see if I miss or overlook something.

why push your own prediction when there are lot of sharer here that you can lean on? though we are need to prepare for losing or winning at least there are others that we can go along , if we lose they are also loser lol.

No lol, you didn't understand how this world work.

When an influencer share his prediction on Youtube, he didn't actually bet on that's match! he get a money from people including you who watch him. This mean when you're lose your bet, the influencer is make money either he predict A or B, his purpose is to get views.

Even he's not share it in Youtube, he share on his own website and when his site become big, he can get money by rent some part for gambling ads, easy money.

Lol I am not referring to those BS Influencer , i was telling those friend of mine or those I have in Groups that gives me their predictions and I believe they are also betting on , that is why I said we are together winner or losers Grin

.

but it is correct that those influencer are only taking their commissions and payments and cares nothing about the bettors .

A team sports bettor is similar to someone who influences you on who or what to bet on, which leads to losses and misunderstandings after the outcome of the bet because if you are the type of person who blames others, it is a huge problem because you will undoubtedly begin blaming others. Though the majority of what I know is that they are lone sports bettors, they are sometimes seeking predictions from others in order to compare them to their own decisions and determine which analysis is better. I am also a lone sports bettor, and I mostly rely on my knowledge over others' unless they give predictions that are better than mine.

Lone. When you make your own analysis there is no one to blame except yourself whereas otherwise there could be blame game.

This is equivalent to those crypto prediction groups, they will likely be making money of you than for you.

I am a bettor by myself but sometimes I bet with my friends. It feels very tense and exciting to place bets with friends and feel the results together. And if we place bets together, I usually leave the analysis to my friends because some of them are very good at analyzing each other who will compete. That has reduced my time analyzing and following what they get from the analysis results. And when we win, we celebrate together by buying food and drinks and partying all night long Grin

and it is more enjoyable playing with friends , but I think what OP asks here is that if we are believing or asking other opinion to where to bet? or which team or players?

but like you , I also love playing with friends most of the time specially when younger years , and till now with office mates? we gamble together at least once a month for bonding.

Most of the gamblers will be lone bettors. Myself used to take the suggestion from the sporting enthusiasts as well as from articles that give better information about the game in which I've plans to bet. Most of the time my bets will be on the underdog, and the bet value will be low. When I go with the winning odds I prefer placing it on live Betting. A combined team betting will be interesting if one has placed over a team and the other have placed bet on the opponent.

I'm a single bettor and have never joined a group or anything like that to get a reference for the odds that will be chosen when betting, and feel more comfortable with current conditions, but that doesn't mean I have never read or seen every prediction made by other forum members especially if he is a member who has proven to be quite accurate in every analysis, for example in tennis there are several members who is quite good at predicting the outcome.

I wager by myself. I choose which matches to bet, how much and which team or athlete to pick, but I like to watch the matches with other people and share with them I'm betting on it, so we cheer on together for the desired result. I think it's more exciting when we are with other people around.

On the aspect OP pointed out I'm a lone bettor, but at same time I don't consider myself a lone one, because you can't be lonely when you are surrounded by others, while talking to them about the bets you have made on the game you are watching. It really depends on what you consider a lone gambler.

I'm a little bit of both...

To base my bet, I end up being quite influenced by the opinion of other people, whether on sports analysis sites, in Telegram groups and even opinions and other bets made by bettors here at bitcointalk.

However, I always bet individually making my own choice.
Obviously I do my own analysis before betting on a certain outcome, sometimes I'm stubborn in going against the odds or what others are saying, sometimes I also prefer to bet on my favorite team, and other times I like to play against all the odds just because I believe that something "very unlikely" can happen so that I win a bigger prize.

I have never placed bets together with a team or a partner, I like the freedom to make my own choices.

It seems to me that a single player has a better chance of winning relying on his experience and knowledge than those gambling players who are guided by opinions on forums or in communities where one way or another you follow the majority opinion, which does not always turn out to be true.

To hard to listen up on someones opinion and solely believe on what they say because we cannot figure out for ourselves if we can really have a better chances to win and also if they gone well maybe we struggle to continue what we like since the guys we rely on are gone totally. So much better learn a skill and be a single player since this is much better, we can avoid unnecessary conflict that might happen if unexpected came happen to our bets.

Learn for yourself and this would be the best way rather than trying out to make yourself that relying into those groups or other people in towards your bet.Nothing beats out if you are the ones who do make out such analysis and would really be finding out that you are really making such decision on your own.Its not bad to snip out some ideas on other people but it would be still your final decision
on where you would really make your own decision based up on your own analysis and there's no other good feeling if you do able to do such thing
rather than on being relying into others.

Mixed.
Mostly lone bettor but whenever I see good picks I will tail them.
In NBA 2020-2021 betting thread we have a lot of good members who share their analysis, picks, props, parlays, and other types of bets on the said league so if I feel like it's something good then I will bet the same or more.
Sometimes, I do overlook some of the games so it's always better to have some group with other gamblers sharing their picks. Many times we have the same choices but I also like those who try to take the risk and I do follow them too if I feel like it can win.
I do appreciate this kind of group and I wish it will last longer.

Even Sports professional analytics aren't always 100% reliable but honestly, I do both alone and team sports betting. I always do my own research and analysis by reading ideas and opinions from other sports bettors in pages and groups and I always choose the choice of the majority. It's risky but at least I would have confidence in my bet. The result is still unpredictable because we all know that sports betting is full of surprises.

It doesn't matter if we read some other references to strengthen our own analysis, but we have to know the match history and the odds that the opponent can win if the opponent will dominate the match, but nothing can be predicted exactly as we want. So when you are ready to place sports bets for the team of your choice, you are ready to risk defeat, because even big teams can sometimes be beaten by low-skilled teams when luck is on their side.

and such situation we had seen during the world cup. some results were unexpected even bookies made a mistake of giving high odds to the winner. and that is true to most sports. you can never be sure about your winning up until the game is over. though i can consider myself as a lone sports bettor, but i do read blogs, discussions about the sports i want to place my bet with. you know, just to get a gist of what's happening and some tips.

Like many things in life that revolve around finances and money, those who go with the crowd might get lucky but often times they just end up getting burned. While you should definitely take elements, copy and try to figure out the strategy in use by the most successful people - you really need to make your own path to be the most successful. It also involves long term analysis and self reflection because it is very easy to win a few times then think you have some extra special idea, but in reality you just had natural variance momentarily swing in your favor and it most often swings back. If you are always just copying people blindly and never learning your own path, then you are destined for failure. You should also remember that successful and wise people often keep their strategies well hidden because it will make them the most money in the long run.

Relying on your own instinct and analysis as a gambler is far richer as it makes you self reliant and builds your sense of judgement about the outcome of certain odds you would want to place a bet on. A team sport bettor will always stand on the fence towards taking a decision on prediction of any odd by himself except it comes from the group or team which his a member. And this drains and keeps you handicap as a gambler in relying on yourself to making rights predictions when your group or community has nothing more to offer.

I have been a lone sport bettor for long now after realizing that I make better predictions on odds than most of the groups or community of before betting tips claiming to be run by experts as most of them are just making prediction based on luck then a win might come through just like every other lone bettor does.

I like to bet alone. But if my defeating rate get higher, then i try to look at the group betting. I realize that there are some mistakes in my strategy. I have gap with the strategy of the winner. Gambling strategy won't be same with others so one can be confused with his betting after losing too constantly. When the ratio comes on continuously, you should consult others. Group Betting has some benefits when I am betting with the same stress with my acquaintance, I can stay in the high position in the direction of confidence. If luck is good, then it is possible to get something good alone or from the group.

Actually there are no tips to win everything even expert analysis cannot be trusted because sports betting sometimes results beyond expectations even though we are confident that the favorite team will win against a low reputation team, so there is no need to place big bets in your chosen team match, just pair low stakes so that you are excited to support your favorite team in that match. But single sports odds or fighters have high chances of winning the fight based on proper expert analysis.

By no means i am not looking for only winning bets, but if the total of wins would be over 50% (i am guessing this is wishful thinking), then it would be way higher then my current success rate. But I am guessing there's no such place because then everyone would be supposedly making money and that's just unsustainable and defeats the point of gambling. Money has to come from somewhere for the winners.
