Topic: Can you stake it all put of over confidence in your club - page 3. (Read 1437 times)

I completely agree with all that you have said, at most times people tend to become over confident of club without considering the fact that there is possibilities of player to have fatigue, making him to have low psychology in terms of being 80 percent and above fit for the current game. However confident or over confident should never be a reason for backing up a game with huge amount, because a lot can be happening in the pitch that we don't understand, in as much as we needed to have certain believe of possibilities in terms of our club winning a game we shouldn't bet with an amount we can't afford to lose as gambling gives no guarantee.

Though I can't really call it foolish move because gambling is a risk which you either win or lose. Whosoever that is not a risk taker can never gamble, though it was a more risky game because from your explanation man united was already losing 0:2 to Liverpool that is why it was possible for the man united odd to have increased to 7odd otherwise it will have reduced to maybe 1.10 odd if man united was wining. So the higher the risk the higher the amount in return.

Yes I have realized that so many persons are so much confident on the match they have already stake, they always believe that they will win and sometimes it turns out the best for them, it really happens and they do take the action of taking all the risk to wait even some do see cash out in their game and they will because of the faith they have with the club and the energy they put into the club and they always make sure it turns out for good, sometimes it is really good to work with your mind and don’t put hope in other people.

Yeah he is not a core gambler, he just did that out of pure support and confidence in his team which normally would be against professional gambling ethics that would say you shouldn't gamble with over confidence cause you can as well lose your funds and over confidence can cause you to stake higher than you are normally supposed to, but yeah in his case its just a matter of little cash 5000 in my currency woidl just be around 5$ or close to that. So I think think he wasn't notorious at all just over confident and sraked to prove himself.

Oh, I wouldn't say it's rare, actually. I think something like this happens every day on this planet. There are so many people that engage in gambling activity, millions each day, so, I bet some of them doing something similar to OP's friend.


That's very wise of you, mate. I hope this habit of yours will not change even when you'll be able to afford huge stakes. Don't spend on gambling more than you usually spend on going to a movie theatre or a concert.

Most gamblers don't just know what they want in gambling; staking to win and playing for fun is different from fans love and support for their team.
 
Because I like a particular team, that should also be the reason why I should know more about them and be able to determine if they can win or not. Knowing fully well that they can't win in that match, I will either leave to place a bet on them or I will boldly place a bet on them to lose.
 
It's as simple as that: placing a bet against my fan team does not mean that I do not support them again. I just don't know to what level some people take this fan of a thing to which they can even decide to lose money just to show their support for their team.

You said something that many people should listen to and memorize, because during a football game, for example, we have seen fans of football teams fighting each other and even managing to get seriously injured, all because they can't accept that their teams lost. in the game, and those same fans who were fighting among themselves and were seriously injured are trapped for many months, while the fans who fought are trapped for months, the football players of those teams they are fans of, are in their homes winning a lot of money and they continue to travel and stay in luxury hotels, continue to eat the best food, continue to buy the best luxury cars while the fans who fought are in jail, eating poorly, sleeping poorly without being able to go out and without being able to see their relatives. and people still don't realize this, that the only ones who will suffer when things go wrong are them and not the football players



This is an image that shows how people keep expressing excessive feelings during games and end up doing crazy things because they are fans of the teams and don't think that everything needs to have limits, what did they gain from going to fight on the field? They didn't get anything good. on the contrary, they were arrested, while the football players are free and living their lives well because they were not violent towards anyone. This is the same thing that happens in sports betting, it doesn't make any sense for a person to keep betting money on their team's victory even though they see that this team will lose because they don't play well. It is unacceptable for someone to do this. There are already cases where people have reached an extreme level, something very sad. cases like these:

Manchester United Fan Commits Suicide After Weekend Defeat, Says Report

Nigerian Soccer Fan Commits Suicide After Losing Bet On FC Barcelona

I'm shocked to hear that someone keeps betting money on their team that they're a fan of instead of placing sports bets for fun and on teams that have a greater chance of winning, without putting any feelings into it. people should think about themselves

No matter how confident I am about a match, I can never back the confidence with a huge amount of money, which I know is going to affect me if I lose it. I will rather back my confidence with a little amount, which I know in case things go wrong, it’s not really going to affect me. We can't always be right, sometimes we will be wrong, and sometimes gambling is luck. A club that you never expected to win or lose might end up surprising someone. When you are confident about a match, then we should also be smart, don’t gamble blindly.

Nobody expected Manchester United to win the match, the result of the match was just shocking, but you should caution your friend. Next time, he shouldn’t be too confident about a match, luck won’t always happen, he shouldn’t get himself into trouble just because he has confidence in his club. If he loses the bet, I don’t really know what condition your friend will currently be in.

You are right, because good research will make your chances of winning closer and if your friend wins, maybe luck is on his side. However, it is not recommended to continue betting large amounts every time your favorite team plays because it is very risky because anything can happen due to many factors, even if you do very good analysis and research there is no guarantee that you will win again.
I have a favorite team and when my team is going to play against a much better team or my team is in bad form, I will not bet. Because in my opinion we have to know more about the condition of our favorite team, which means we have to think further about betting if the situation is different and not possible, and we also shouldn't force it just because it's our favorite team because that's very risky.

Personally, I see any ganbler that bet on his club because of favourism even when his team is weak, as a biased gambler. He is not gambling to enjoy the fun, but gambling to show that he does not bother to throw his money away on his club just tje show that he loves his club. Or maybe he is doing it to deceive people that he is a die hard fan of his club. The rea8why I said so is that even though, we are gambling for fun, we decided to gamble to see if we can win the casino's money  and not gambling to enrich them. No true gambler would bet on a weak club, because he wants to win and be happy with his bet. Winning brings out the best fun.

Once you do lose that control then it would something that will in result into loses or something that might go ahead further on which it would really be depending up on how well you do really make yourself do handle
when it comes to this aspect. There would really be a couple of factors on which could affect your decision making and just like on what lanatsa said above that if you are getting involvement with your emotions
on which you are ignoring those basic information or facts in between teams then you are just basically doing bets basing up with your emotion and this is something not that ideal.

When betting on sports then we do really have indeed our favorites but just like you said that if you are really that going after for making profits then you wont really be that
making yourself that basically blind on who do have the upperhand and who do have that disadvantage. So it would be always your call at the end.

Gambling that involves emotions is riskier than normal gambling, you have the will to gamble on something that you know will not get results as expected but the emotional factor has forced you to gamble with high stakes, all gamblers have a list of favorite clubs but they also consider the bets to get a win by analyzing the history of the last few matches to ensure their favorite club can win the next match.

However, I am happy that he won that bet but that gambling behavior is not to be imitated because he ignores control in gambling, someone should remind him to keep the winnings and he should gamble carefully before he loses all the winnings he has earned.

Analysis should really be applied and dont make yourself that having that involvement on having such attaching those emotions of yours on the time that you would really be doing some betting.
We do know that we do have our own favorites but doesnt mean that you would really be just making those blind bets or simply trying out to keep it straight into them just because you are a fan.
If you are really that betting on them to show up some support then its up to you but most bettors wouldnt really be attaching any emotions on which betting up blindly even if its
obvious that their team that they do like is really at disadvantage but well when it comes to betting then it would really be something that will be depending on you.
Its none others business on which one you would be betting into or which one you would really be liking on to choose.

When evaluating a decision we must always take into account all the possible scenarios that can occur, sometimes when we see someone doing something crazy and getting away with it, we may be compelled to try to do the same, but once you begin to think about it and you realize how unlikely it was for that person to get that possible outcome, then it is easy to realize that such an action was a mistake and we must not imitate that person as it is unlikely we will be that luckily.

When it comes to reconciling energy with prudent financial decisions in the gambling industry, I believe there are a few things to consider. First and foremost, create and adhere to a schedule. Determine how much money you are willing to lose and do not exceed that amount. Second, do not allow your emotions guide your decisions. It's easy to get caught up in the anticipation of a game and risk more than you are capable of losing. Third, make sure you understand the chances and don't place bets based just on emotional impulses. While emotion and enthusiasm are vital components of sports betting, they should not be the only variables you should consider. You should also utilize logic and reason when making judgments regarding how to bet. If you find yourself becoming overly focused on the money component of betting, it may be time to take a step back and reconsider your objectives.

Let's suppose your friend had lost his bet on that day. Would be coming here and asking whether it was a sensible or a foolish move. For sure, you would have said that it was a foolish move and even your friend would have been regretting on his decision. But since he was lucky to win this one, he must be very confident telling everyone that he has accomplished something extraordinary. So you are also confused on this surprise win and asking if this is a good move.

Remember do not fall for these wins as they come rarely. In most cases, people will just lose these insane bets which can ruin their life on the loss. If you want not to be hurt by gambling and betting, it's important to gamble with the risk management plan and avoid these emotional decisions of going "all in" will make you poorer one day.

I see no reason why i should act being overconfidence for noting all because of my team is hate one playing, i should be able to tell of their strength and weakness before gambling, i cant just intentionally for no reason act being foolish to gamble in support of them even when i know that its not their luck for wining, if any thing should happen to us, none of these supported clubs will pay a visit to us or our family members or even compensate us for something, any action taken by us is at our own risk.

Yes because the problem is that they have entered the addiction phase which is the worst phase in gambling because there are a lot of problems that they will experience when the level of interest in gambling is quite high, but I think giving advice that is suggested or that is neutral depends on the person too, or the point is that maybe the person who will give the advice does not know about the dangers of the bad effects of treating gambling in the wrong way.

I think if for example the situation is that the person giving the advice is someone who doesn't really understand the dangers of gambling if done in an excessive way then of course there is a possibility for them to still advise their friend to bet a high amount and we can conclude that these are two typical people who are too focused on winning and don't have a true understanding of what gambling really is, the impact is that maybe the person who gets the advice will feel like he is fully supported to really bet a large amount. On the other hand I can't really blame his friend because after all their ignorance about the dangers of gambling is the problem, but if the opposite in the sense that you know about the various bad effects that exist in gambling but you advise others to act aggressively then yes clearly you are someone who supports others to get into big trouble.

This is another mistake some gamblers make by playing gamble in working hours, and one of the simplest truth to this matter is that, those who can't resist but to play gamble on working hours are actually addicted. It might not be severe but they are addicted because they no longer have control over their emotions, hence gamble can even make them do certain things that they ought not to do and they just concur just because of the desperation they have in satisfying that inner thought. However I have never tried it before because I know how gamble could change your emotion if you experience too much loss irrespective of using a specific amount for gambling only. My work is currently the only steady source of income and I wouldn't like to mess things for my self by letting gamble change my emotion and action around my working environment.

Truly a lucky day for OP's friend, tho what he did is super risky and it's rare that someone will do that just to prove to their friends that the team he choose is the right one. it's a good thing he won because otherwise, he'll run out of money, his ego will be trampled. Just like you, I would never bet a huge amount even though I have instincts that I will win if I let this team go. First of all, it is difficult to bet all in because it is risky and secondly, I am not an impulsive type of gambler that I can drop any amount if I want to, my allocated gambling money is limited and I am not yet in point that I can afford to spend a large amount because I don't have that much and if I have, I will put it in my savings and not spend it on my vice.
