I used to be more active in betting on football, but then it became boring to watch with my league and I took a break. Now I prefer boxing more because spectacular fights happen less often, I have more time to prepare for the event and look for the information I need for analysis, and I also want to watch the fight. And for me, boxing is somehow easier than football, because you can choose fewer options and guess more events.
Soccer can be very intense to bet on sometimes based on the tension you may feel because of the teams involved especially if your support team is involved. Nevertheless I noticed most sport bettors place bets mostly because they will be actively watching the match because that Is basically where most of the fun actually lies.
Betting on a sport you don't understand is simply an extension of playing blindly besides you have zero strategy in mind since you have no understanding of how good the teams would be and hence how tough the match would be too.
I had an experience that I was going to watch several matches on different days in hockey, one team that I followed and previously supported. I knew what form they were in, namely, terrible. I just started betting against them every match, and there were almost equal odds against their opponents. In general, I started winning and I won several matches in a row, which made me very happy. Maybe it was luck, but I think it was exactly what I assumed - their terrible form. Generally speaking, I think that a player will win more often if he bets on a sport that he understands than on one in which he understands absolutely nothing.

I don't bet on games that I don't know much about, but the main rule is that I don't bet on games that I don't watch.

I have a friend who bets on football but he doesn't even watch matches and he bets on foreign leagues that he doesn't know much about. He just goes with his gut feeling and bets on the over/under score.
It's hard for me to understand his motives, because I always watch games and I know a lot about teams or fighters that I put my money on. I think that he's only betting for the sake of it, so that he's got something to check while at work. He likes to get distracted from his work and check if the matches are going his way, but he doesn't enjoy it.


Too hard to imagine that kind of gambling behavior and difficult to assume what his intention was, as nobody put their bets in and just checked it later to know the results. I don't think it was a good idea unless we are just gambling and relying solely on luck.

Because for me, a real gambler doesn't just bet but also watches the entire game to fuel excitement and thrill. I believe this is how sports betting was and a smart thing to do, for this can be used in future bets. 

Adding that kind of enjoyment after placing your bet not just for the money but also for that additional excitement while watching the game, if you watch the game and you understand well how it works you'll anticipate some advantages of the team or a player that you are supporting, it's true that knowing the game and the those who's playing it then place your bets gives you confidence and an edge though not a guarantee as there's no such like that when we talk about gambling.

The thread all about focusing on what you know that works for you or yields result, there variety of games to play try your hand in different games observe which one result is more profitable than stay focus on it, that's it, there is no big deal, for among all the games the one that works for me most is the sports betting and the dice game and that's why I stick to it. When you focus on something, you get better at doing it over time, than jumping from this game to the other without any positive result in the end.

I prefer to play sports betting because I'm familiar with football more than any other type of gambling.over the years I've come to figure out that knowing a particular sports can give you a little advantage or leverage over the sportsbook, although this does doesn't guarantee hundred percent win but it would definitely reduce the losses you incur. It's better to familiarize yourself with an aspect of betting than just trying to stick to instincts only, this is almost the same thing as relying on luck, working on mitigating your losses by focusing on the skill based aspect of betting.

Every gamblers know what's bets for them and it's good we bet on games that will be profitable for us instead of just trying luck randomly. This could work for some people especially those ones that work with different strategies. It is hood we gamble on games that will be quite profitable for us even though it's going to take longer time for us to do the necessary research before we can gamble on the games.
Those that know what really work for them will buy be bothered about betting because they always have different ways to make sure that they get close to the meeting line. It is also good gamblers ask questions and share betting ideas to learn more strategies and gambling patterns that will increase the rate of individual winning.

Sports betting is a game of knowledge and luck, and the row that knowledge plays is that it greatly increases our chances of winning our bets, while luck on the other hand plays a roll of making us winners indeed.

You don’t have to mix luck and skills, maybe just focus on what you can control, because luck is unpredictable.

Keep a record of your performance if you want to go "PRO". This will help you see if you’re profitable in the long term. In sports betting, a 53% win rate is already enough to be considered successful. At that point, it’s not about being lucky anymore but it’s about having the skills to hit that passing grade.

Luck only plays a role in the short term. For a long-term approach, you need to be realistic and base your strategy on consistent effort and analysis.
Are you aware that luck is an opportunity? When you don't do things right, luck will come and then you won't be lucky.  Skills and luck can work hand in hand, but I'd rather replace skill with research/analysis/experience. If there is a general name to categorize it that will be better. When all of this meets opportunity that's when a gambler can be lucky. Imagine when you do research before betting, and you place the bet. Eventually, you will think of it if you had not done that research would you have won?

In as much as people can be extremely lucky when they do not put in any effort. It is necessary that will should always do things the right way, we will be lucky in winning our bet many times than the times we will lose.

Any sport you know very well, you can  gamble on those sport and avoid gambling on sports you know nothing about, one of the reasons why some set of people lose money a lot when it comes to gambling is because they gamble on sports they know nothing about with the slogan " gambling is all about luck" yes gambling involves luck but that those not mean skill and knowledge is not involve
How are people always comfortable placing bets on sports which they have little or no knowledge? That’s really bad, I do place bets on only sports that I have proper knowledge about, since the only sport that I am interested in is football, so I do place bets on only football. I don’t even try to bet on other sports, because I know I will be losing most of my money, and I do gamble for fun, so immediately I start placing bets on sports that I have no knowledge about, and I don’t think I will be having any fun. People gambling on sports that they have no knowledge about are just gambling for the sake of money, and they are hoping to be lucky.

Gamblers with a different intention act in such manner always wanting to play multiple games surprisingly they end up with lose while sometimes a win. It’s more risky going all when a gambler is not yet knowledgeable about the multiple sports listed, firstly they get tempted with the amount stated secondly the odds might be a little tempting. I actually stated the fact concerning gambling honestly I will never force myself researching about sports games I find less interesting.
In short, don't force it. It's more entertaining when we are watching sports games that we really love and then putting some money on it just to see how lucky we are or how good we are at guessing the results of the game. This is actually a fun thing to do but some would take it seriously and sometimes they make mistakes by trying another sport they know nothing about just to see how good they are at predicting games. It's a waste of money if you ask me because I have done this before just for a trial with cents on each bet and I can say most of them just lost and others won maybe because they are the favorites.
It's still better if really know something about the game, we somehow have the projected results in our mind and that will help to increase our chance to win.

Sports betting might be a game of luck and skills, but skill is more than crucial for a long-term success. That’s why we often see skilled bettors last longer in sports betting, not because they’re lucky enough, but because they make reliable data analysis and they understand the odds well and turn the favors on their side.

However, despite all of these, skilled bettors still cannot guarantee secured profits in some of their bets. Of course, they sometimes make wrong decisions and experience losing streaks, and that’s where luck should play its role in gambling when skill isn’t sufficient enough.

Is always advisable to bet on the sports we know too well maybe even when you decide to look at other sports first you need to take your time to learn so as to have the knowledge about how that very sport works before betting on such sport, you can't just bet on a sport you know nothing about. just like I'm now I don't play any other sport apart from football,  other sports like basketball, volleyball, table tennis, and others. Among This above mentioned sports if I tell you that i have an idea about how this sports work just know that I'm telling lies, I don't even understand those thier options, But in football I can make a very good prediction and I also understand those thier options very well.

You have better chance of winning if you know the sports very well. If not, it is like you are just betting blindly and you will likely lose your bet. Ask yourself, what is your goal why you are betting? Is it just to pass your time or at least get something out of it? Because if you are just randomly placing bet on sports, it means, win or lose, it doesn't matter and the funds should be your extra extra as you don't care if you lose it or not.

You don't need to have great knowledge on a sport before you can bet on it. There are so many groups we can get sport bet signals on telegram and other social media, even for free without going too far. We can make money on sports that we don't even have idea about.
 What is important is to know how to place the bet because things are becoming easier day by day. We can always ask questions and get answers on some certain games we don't have good ideas about.
The most important thing is to have the luck that will keep us going, than looking for a better strategy than can increase our winning rate. Some newbies are even making money than some gamblers that had been gambling for years because they have groups and communities they look to for signals.

Of course because the basis of the possibility of betting is knowledge and if we know more about a sport then it is better to bet on that sport, yes this is subsatanical because you will make the right betting decision because you know the sport you are betting on.

Many gamblers who bet on sports they don't know end up failing more because their analytical power is less than perfect even though they try to find out more before doing it, but people who are used to it will be much easier to do analysis and special studies to make good predictions if they are very familiar with all certain sports, or it can be said that the chances of winning are far greater than others.

I'm a big supporter of betting on sports you are familiar with, this isn't the same as exploring new options this is way different because your knowledge on certain games would go a long way...if you are good with football and can predict football games very well there's absolutely no need to bet on other sports, focus on what you already know and build more on it but if you feel like you want to make a change then you should take some time to make proper research of the sports that you are switching to, you can just be knowledgeable about a sport in a day, you need to put in some time.
Initially, it all comes from interest, even often in adolescence. For example, I often played football on the street, and after that I watched the Champions League and my friends too. We absorbed this love from early years, and only then did betting begin. Therefore, many tried themselves as experts who play for money, and everyone had a goal to earn money, no one wanted to play for relaxation. At that time, few people knew this and fell for this hook of their self-confidence. I also thought to win on this, and it's good that I did not lose much, but now I already know many things. For example, now I will never chase profit and perceive bets completely differently, which will not allow me to lose too much.

Easy. Because bookmakers have already though about who is strong and who is weak, who is winnings and who is loosing, even though score dont show that. Odds are out helpers. You dont have to be an expert to say that anyone with odds like +5 is a huge underdog. You dont have to be an expert, if you see player or team has 1.01-1.05 odds to win. You are right that you say those who are not familiar with sports, place bets only for sake of money, but we must admit that there gamblers like that, whos goal is to end with a profit no matter how, no matter what they bet on.

This is a good thing to do when you're trying to bet on a sport you really like and I agree with this because after all, we bet not randomly but sometimes have more understanding so that we know how the game works and we don't mess around with the odds.

That's not to say we shouldn't do random bets because it comes back to the choice you have and it's up to you in the end but as a bettor it's certainly not recommended but if you really want to force the will then it comes back to yourself in the end.

But it will indeed be more worth it to bet where we know what is done because in the end gambling randomly is the same as we play on slots that only make instinct and luck more than everything whereas for sports betting it is actually still very much possible to do with analysis so that the probability of winning becomes greater.
Also, you can really be able to enjoy on what you had bet specially you do have that knowledge about it and this is something that you will really be needing up to consider when making up some betting so that you will really be able to enjoy at least in comparing into those people who do make out bets that they dont really even know on what sport that they are really that doing into. Lets say that you do bet on a sport that you dont even know on what it is and just simply sticking into those favorites but it will be that not assuring that you will be able to win on just simply sticking into those favorites. There would really be those moments or times that you will be excited on winning up something on which you dont even know and this do sparks out that kind of impulsiveness when it comes into your bets.

We do know that there are people who do make bets into sports on which they dont really know on what sport it is which i dont really have that idea on how they will be having those considerations on making up some bets with those unknown. Just like been said that its not really that totally enjoyable on betting on sports which you dont know in compared into those sports that you are really that fond or interest into. Its impossible that you cant be able to distinguish on which one is really that viable for you but if we do speak about personal preference then there are those people who are really that making up this kind of choice when it comes into this matter.

That will be what we do when we want to place a bet. We will choose the sport that we know so we will have a chance to win although that will not be a big chance. If we wants to place on a sport that we don't know, we must know that we can lose anytime and we should accept the loss by not trying to recovering our losses. We can not risks to bet on the sport that we don't know because that can make us loss our money. But if you willing to do that and no problem with the loss that you can get, you can still place a bet on the unknown sports and see what is the result.

Some people love and knows everything about soccer why some people love and knows everything about basketball, so also table tennis, volleyball, baseball, horse racing, handball, snooker, boxing, cricket, golf etc. Any sport you know very well, you can  gamble on those sport and avoid gambling on sports you know nothing about, one of the reasons why some set of people lose money a lot when it comes to gambling is because they gamble on sports they know nothing about with the slogan " gambling is all about luck" yes gambling involves luck but that those not mean skill and knowledge is not involve, if you gamble on sports you know nothing about then you are gambling blinding and your chance of winning are very small compared to when you know everything about that particular sport, when you know a lot about a particular sport prediction will be easy for you.

Just because you know everything about a particular sport does not mean that you will be successful when gambling on that sport too. Gambling is still a game or luck but you should not leave everything to luck to do it for you. You have to put in some efforts while you still wait on luck to help you win. Knowing things about the sport that you are gambling on will help increase your chances of winning by you not picking the wrong team but for an individual that do not have any clue what he is doing, he will pick an underdog to win a bigger team and then he loses. Although at times, it might work in his favour and he wins since in some games, the underdogs win and their odds are always bigger, making your reward to be very big.
