Have anyone ever had confidence in any match that he was willing to be huge amounts to back up the confidence in a match that features his club. A friend of mine recently shocked me with how much passion and confidence he had in his club, man u vs liverpool  that happened on Sunday I guess was a very hard match cause Liverpool was already stomping 0:2 to man United but my friend was telling that man United won't lose the match, so I told him that if he has much confidence that he should stake life, shocking to me he went on and staked 5k on man United win to qualify which was about 7 odds at that time, and yeah it turned out right for him. Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

Foolish move in most cases but in the case of your friend is one of the rare cases with that saying that goes fortune favors the bold.By the way the game was never 0-2,was 1-2 for a long time and Manchester United only equalized near the end of the game so that was truly a fortune favors the bold thing.

In most other cases though people lose a lot of money and that damage their life rather than improving it like in the case of your friend.So it is a foolish move in 99% of the cases and I have never done that.

... shocking to me he went on and staked 5k on man United win to qualify which was about 7 odds at that time, and yeah it turned out right for him. Can any one do this or was it a foolish move?

There's nothing wrong with that as long as he is comfortable with the outcome and his loss did an analysis and he is not betting out of blind loyalty.
In my case I would not bet a huge amount of money out of pure loyalty, I prefer to lose making an effort on my analysis at least I put an effort and that effort will convert to experience in analysis rather than blind loyalty, there should be a line dividing loyalty and betting the right way.

Betting based up on blind loyalty then even if this bet would really be turning out to be a loss then this one would really be easily that be moving on because they would really be having in mind that they are betting for showing up on the support for the team and not for the money on which we cant be able to tell whether this one would really be true or not, because usually these kind of excuses are really just that covering up their extreme disappointment when it comes to that condition on which you would really be having those reasons on which you would really be telling into yourself if you are ready on what are the things that you would really be able to encounter.

When it comes betting on your club on which you've been supporting then its up to your choice because each one of us would really be having that own perspective
when it comes to the teams that we are betting into. Some for pure support and some do really just stick into whose the favorite.

It's definitely not a good idea to take such risk on your team not minding how confident you are in their ability you still have to be cautious and apply caution because if you don't, you are definitely going to loose more than you can afford to loose.

Gambling responsibly is very important and that includes not keeping any bias for your team or another trying to exercise too much confidence because just at the verg of victory you could still loose and then you may be crying because you had expected another out come and not that which you got.
You are wrong. Gambling responsibly does not mean you should not gamble on your team to win. Gambling responsibly is about using the money that you can afford to lose to gamble. If you are gambling and you see a odd that you think can not be won and you gamble with it with just small amount of money and you are thinking that you will lose it but not affecting your emotion, financial life and other things, you are gambling responsibly. If you can not control yourself, gambling with huge amount and also gambling taking your time than necessary is when you do not gamble responsibly.

Just like the case of drake recently, although he's very wealthy and would recover I'm days but then it was actually such a huge amount to just stake on a team just like that even if you happen to be too confident, make sure to still apply caution a d gamble responsibly so you don't end up in regrets.

It happened sometimes. A situation where I get too excited or over confident and place a bet because I have favorite team playing or player in the match. But what I've come to notice is that most times it just doesn't play out well. I fell most times that it's better to calculate the upper hand than just betting on whom you like the most or favorite as some will say. I've lost some couple of bet due to this and I learnt not to always play favorite out of confidence because it's still gamble and gamble is about luck.
When your luck runs out, your game cuts but if you have enough luck, you get to win. Still your friend was so lucky. Because I too had placed a bet on that match and lost. It nice to hear that someone got to play for his favorite team and got lucky.

A lot of gamblers more especially the football lovers have so much passion for the team they support that is why no matter the team they have as opponents, such gambler can never bet against his team though I see it as just passion for the club they support so being too confident about your club is still accompanied with luck because until the final whistle a team cannot be declared winner yet, so it's not a bad thing to stand strong with the team you support to the extent of betting on their behalf so it's normal but what is always advised is responsible gambling so that if it turns the other way round it will not affect your psychological well-being as a result from the shock of loss.

OP, confidence in the bet because "it's your club" doesn't change the probability of winning towards the gambler's favor. I'm very confident that if your friend makes the same "confident" bet everytime his club has a game, he would lose all the betting capital he has because the odds are already made to give the edge towards the sports betting service/casino. There might be some mistakes sometimes, but that doesn't happen often. Why do casinos and sports betting services continue to exist? Because they make money from plebs like us. It's a good business.

I cannot stake my on my club because I bet from a place of knowledge and informed decision. If I know that my club has been preforming poorly lately in the league and have been on a losing streak it would be foolishness to bet on them when I know that their opponents are better and are most likely to win.

Your friend made a very wrong decision even though the outcome was in his favour. It was just a chance occurrence that whose probability of repetition is 1 in a 100 cases.

First off. That thing you friend did was quite reckless, in my opinion.
I would never be that reckless or trust that much on a football team, never.
One must be a bettor who has some logic behind the bets and also keeping in mind one cannot bet only based on the raw feelings of passion one could have for an specific team.
If your friend continues a long that path, I am afraid it could be just matter of time before he starts to lose important amounts of money to the sport book and other gamblers with a better common sense than his.
Also, my national team does not have as much cache and good curriculum as many otherd around the world, so I would not trust them with much money if I decided to bet on their favor. All of thst goes against my common sense.

Every gambler, especially those who like sports betting, definitely has favorite team that they really rely on and no matter who the match will take place with, the belief in winning on the team they like will always be there.
But not many can really have success with full confidence like that because many strong and big teams fail to win matches and many draws occur which makes gamblers lose their bets.
I also have favorite team that I always believe will win in every match, but betting doesn't always mean winning because draw is also often an option when betting money.
Bet if only rely on faith and trust, then in the end defeat cannot be avoided.

From what you said regarding you friend, I think he was really lucky because it is clear that Manchester United won only because they were lucky and this is the surprise in football match.
I sure there will be many football fans who are shocked and can't believe the victory that Manchester United got over Liverpool.

I won’t consider this a foolish move if he confident that his bet will win despite the odds and the result becomes in favor of him. It only shows that he made the right decision on trusting his money to his team due to his analysis skills towards the club he made.

The only thing I find it foolish is the amount he bet on a gambling. No one should be all-in especially if the amount involved is life savings. On gambling like this which is analysis is involved I’m not surprised that people will usually have a solid confidence on their bet because they their own reason that backed it.

Yeah! your friend just did it and there are still a few who'd do it. We've seen a lot of crazy news about gambling addictions and stuff like this in the internet, so this is nothing new though and again anyone can do it. Regardless of the outcome this kind of move is a foolish one. I mean, who would want to get broke in an instant just because he got provoked by someone to go ahead and put his life savings if he really trust the team he's betting with.
Your friend might gonna do it again and on the next or a couple of try guaranteed he'd get broke in an instant. So, if you really care for your friend, don't provoke his confidence again.

There could be more to him than meets the eye, some people are gifted and they can sometimes predict very right, I am not a huge fan of gambling but outside of gambling my beliefs have gotten me to the state that I am in right now.

I have people around me that are now scared of my will and beliefs, because everything I turned out to be was something I used to tell them when I had nothing, I mean I ended up doing it like I said I would.

It's hard for things to go your way when you have nothing to show for it, even people around you won't believe it until you prove them wrong.

I just happen to believe that gambling will never go the way I wanted, because I see gambling as a way of the fools, its easy to be an idiot in gambling than anything else, I like real things and outcome than something that relies on total luck.

When it comes to gambling, you have to have mind if not, you won't be able to survive a lot of things. you need to believe in yourself, and any decision you are making concerning any game, you have to have positive attitude towards it and understand what you are saying There are some clubs that you will have so much confidence to bet on, and that happens to me, especially when Manchester City is playing. I am also full of confidence that they will win. And that is when you will get tempted to stake and most times it works because some clubs like Manchester City are good and I can attest to how Manchester City has given me a lot of wins. and there are games I don't even try because predicting them will be difficult. especially Manchester United vs. Liverpool. I was surprised to have seen Manchester United win. I don't enjoy staking games like this. I don't recommend people move while gambling.

It is a blind trust for some supporters of some teams, while to some others it is from the success rate of their club and from the results that they have delivered before, that is what has borne that believe. If the team I support has had a series of successful games, winning many and not losing, I'll be very confident to stake lots of money on them to win the next game to play because I believe that the players have the mentality to win and are serious about it and even when they are losing they can turn things around and still end up either winning the game or worst case scenario ending the game in a draw. If the team I support has shown performance that is not consistent, I will not take such a risk on them.

I think we have all seen that it also cannot be separated from luck, don't be too confident that the team we love will win, especially against a strong team, don't bet all the money just because of love for the team itself, I also have a team that I like Even other people too, but you have to see which team they play against and how strong their strength is, Liverpool is not an easy opponent, so even though Manchester United won yesterday, they also won narrowly and this cannot be separated from their luck and enthusiasm.

So your friend was just lucky to get it, even though if on the other hand Manchester United didn't play that hard, maybe they wouldn't have succeeded in winning it. You need to work hard until the end of the match so that Manchester United deserves to win it, but that doesn't mean we have to be confident that the team we love will win, especially in important quarter-final or semi-final round, I prefer to bet safely rather than looking for risks just because I love the team I like, don't like the football club team too much, the main thing is that as long as we are still gamblers, look at the opportunities, not just love the team. I personally wouldn't do something stupid like that

I can not place such bet in such unexcited period when the match has already started and if by means of referee decides to blow the final whistle then it is assumed game over that that just seems my loosing.

I would neither not say that your friend is a foolish one. Gambling is risky game and it is usually said that no risk no rewards and do away with your fears now and face the dividend of the joy tomorrow.
If you realizes the lucky guesture in gambling then you OP would under that just 5 minutes especially in a sport game is enough to do wonders that 1 hour can not perform.
So I will say your guy was just a risk bearer, not that he believed his team will win but he believed that nothing is impossible to achieve if only you understand your potential capacities.

Thats what gambling is on which you should really be having that fun and this is something that would really be the main thing on why we do gamble or make bets on having the thrill. When it comes on supporting on a particular team then it is really that something that will depend on a certain individual on which not all would really be the same when it comes to someones insight and belief. Just let him be on which its his money
not yours and if he does believe that his club would be winning then its a normal approach. We do have our own choices and this is why we do make a bet.

It would really be just only having two possible outcomes which it would neither be that a win or lose. Its impossible that they arent aware about on the amount that they've been betting into.
If it loses then move on and if it wins then that would really be putting up a smile in your face.

I agree with you, gambling should be done for fun so that undesirable things don't happen, such as emotional outbursts or loss of self-control when gambling. It's true what you said when it comes to supporting it, it depends on each individual, and if we really idolize a team and have full confidence in that team then there's no harm in placing a bet because I think maybe that includes self-appreciation, as long as we're ready to lose. because if you are not prepared to lose then the possibility of something bad happening will happen.

Even though I have a team that I believe in and am a champion for, I don't dare to risk it all, maybe that will be done by those who really have complete trust and because of their love for the team they are champions for, I hope they can take the risk. what will happen when you risk everything and what happens is defeat. I don't dare to take risks myself.

         -    Honestly, I can't do what your friend referred to, but I can't deny that he has the guts to do it, and it's amazing, to be honest. But I won't really do that. For me, punching the moon is
like jumping into a sea with deep water, and yet I don't know how to swim. It's like if I did what he did.

The way he did it seems very reckless; I just don't know if this is what they noticed in accordance with OP's story or narrative on the subject he did.
Because my heart is weak when it comes to such things, honestly speaking.
