Topic: Can you stake on a potential(obvious) loosing team just for love? - page 5. (Read 958 times)

To be sincere I can't do no such thing with my money all in the name of the love of my football club. I can always give that moral support even when it's obvious they are going to lose the game but it won't go beyond moral to financial in my gambling for or against them.

Loving my favourite team so much would either mean I don't bet against them at all, instead of me betting in their favour in game's I know they are going to lose. The whole idea is that it's going to be a wasteful of funds and no one that has value for money will be comfortable wasting it knowingly.

Sometimes, I still do bet on Ferrari to have a podium for example, doesn't mean that they are not going to get it, they may actually have a car at the podium but it is also not guaranteed, so I can say that I am not betting on something I know it will fail, but I am betting on something with low odds at times.

Secondly, I do bet on my own team to win as well, and usually they don't these days, not that they lose all the time, but they are midtable so that means they win sometimes but not that commonly and the odds are not even that good. All in all I could say that it does happen, not that often but it does happen and it is not really something to worry about, we see these type of things, as long as you do not bet big, it's fine.

Yeah! You speaks as a gambler who is after multiplication or your stakes. I have no problem with that as much gambling aim is of individuals.
So then, you must always be sentimental with your team if they have always played cutting off your bets which you cares no fun about in the game but to win and addy to your pocket.

Definitely in a scenero like this @author=criptoevangelista you will always be against your team because you should always be at the edges that could give you winnings according to your Predictions so as you can just make more cash and doesn't care who the hell teams are.

Here you would never be a team lover maybe you could consider only that team (s) that plays and gives you winnings. Lol.
You: No profits and no funs. 😂

That sounds incredible and at this cost, you are determined to catch up with the funs and not about chasing profits otherwise you would not make such bet. That does not really require analysis to make the right predictions in order to secure your winning.
But this is just something obvious that you already know what the outcome of the game would be and yet you sticked to bet on it. Such is indeed fun and a die hard fan of your team.

In this case, there is absolutely no way you would regret your looses if only gambling is being a game of fun like this. And it would as well encourage staking with what is affordable to loose because you can not ignore to stake valuable fund at at a 100% sure of going to loose it.
This is just going to be like... Yeah, I am doing a giveaway to the gamble this time. Have funs 👍✌️

Being a fan is one thing and gambling for fun is another thing.  I will never let my being a fan blind  my judgement when it comes to sportbetting.  The reason for sports betting is not to have be a loyal person but rather to have fun betting on what we think would be the outcome of the game or getting profit out of our knowledge on how the team will perform.

I think I am sane enough to know that my favorite team won't even know whether I am sacrificing my money for them or reward me for being loyal to them.  I doubt they can even gift me a free lunch during their match day. So for me,  I am not ready to sacrifice my chance of getting profit in the name of being loyal to my favorite team.

Yes, why not?

It's pure support for the team that you truly like even if it means losing you money. That money won't even have limitations or minimum amounts, as long as you're okay to do that and you understand any result is possible then that doesn't mean anything to be honest.

But just you're showing what kind of a fan you are. That's not chasing money and losses but if you truly want to do something for the support of your beloved team, even in the slightest move of betting, you'd do that.

I don't think I would cause I already have a principal not to stake on my favourite club cause it often affects my judgement and I have lost so many times cause of such.

Whe  it comes yo betting I do keep emotions aside, so if its so obvious that they woudl lose I won't pick them, but that doesn't mean I wont support them still or maybe deny them cause they lost.

Fanning a club goes far deeper than betting on them, so people can get into fight just for the sake of their clubs, so yes most people would not because they do t know the obvious truth, but just to put hope that they might win and surely would end up with a heart break.

I know plenty of sports fans that always bet on their team. I think it’s pretty normal behavior. Sure, you might not win very often, but when you do win and the joy of your team winning is combined with the excitement of beating the odds and making a bag, it’s all suddenly worth it. I actually love this type of gambler.

Is this question even arguable? This is just like knowing fully well that if you throw your phone into a deep sea with your eyes closed, you don't know the direction you send it. The possibility of getting that device back is very slim, but yet you went ahead and did that anyway. 
 
Truth be told, there is no gambler who, in his right sense, be you a die-hard fan or whatever you might classify that love to be, will bet for their team to win in a game in which everyone is fully sure that the team will lose.
 
It's just equal to making a free donation to the casino because, at the end of the day, they will get richer and you will be the one to lose, and with or without your beg to support your fans club, they will still be or get to wherever they want to be.

I am also on this one, because at the end of the day, the team won't care for your loses or your money spent on them. The situation here is, yes, I do love my team but when it comes to betting, I will bet on the team that I think will be the winner. The main aim of betting is to win, right? So it is ridiculous if you will bet on an obvious losing team. But of course, it doesn't stop you from cheering or supporting your favourite team.


This quote, I believe, should be taken into consideration by bettors. But in any case, it is up to them how they manage their funds. Do take note that your favourite teams don't care about your money at all. For sure, they don't even know you exist as a fan. So better take care of yourselves.

I can't do such a thing I can only bet a club I know will deliver to take the goodiegabs. Gambling may be for fun but but not when it comes loosing money to your club in the name of fan.  I can never do that. I will still maintain my name as a fan but not to the extent of loosing money to my club when I know They might disappoint me.

Will the money I am staking on my favourite team go to my favourite team's account? no. Obviously i will be losing to the casinos, what then is the essence of this love and support for the team i love? There are many other ways I can show support to my favourite team and staking money on them even when I know that they are obviously losing isn't one of them. The essence of gambling is to give accurate predictions on a particular game. If I decide to let my emotions influence my decisions while  gambling,  then that's not gambling but something entirely different. I will not deliberately enrich the casinos at my own expense and call is 'support ' or 'love' for my favourite team. Whenever I am gambling, I try as much as possible to give accurate predictions, therefore I will not let my emotions ruin my effort.

It will be very stupid of me to know that my team is going to lose in a particular match, and yet I insist and place a bet for them to win. This is just like willingly wasting money on something that is not worth it.
 
If the love I have for my team cannot allow me to place a bet against them, the best thing the person should do is to avoid such a bet entirely and move over to the next game. I don't take some kind of blind decision. Just because I love the team and support them does not mean I will place a bet for them to win, even when I'm sure of what the outcome of the game will be.

As a long-time of that said team, yes I will put my trust on them regardless if they are up against a much better team.

About the profits, I will see to it that I will find a better betting option for me so that while I support my team, I'm also having a chance to get profits by betting with them. Sometimes, I want my favorite team as an underdog so that I will have the chance to take a high and goods since after all, there's no way I will bet on the opposing team.

you made it explicit that you're having fun by Staking on games and wagering your funds right? If that's the case, you can possibly bet on any team you'd wish to...Some people can go as far as doing that just as you said... I know of someone that'll be so furious and refuse his meals Should his team lose any match at all.

For the love and support --why not?
For the sake of making money, bettor will never choose to let their love control but rather choose the purpose of winning. That is why we can't expect their fans to be loyal and will stay with them until the end because some of them will go away. Well, we can't force them to be loyal, it was their money and they are free to choose where to bet. We might say they support the team but when it comes to gambling, it's too hard to expect such a thing.
In fact, some bettors blame the team they supported for their losses, how much more if they have insights that they will lose the game.

We must consider that there's a pure bettor, a pure fan, and both at any sport.

As to my preference, as a bettor and as a fan, I can behave like that guy in your story but still, it depends on some situations.

Of course, I will stake on my favorite team, but if the odds are not that interesting, I'd rather skip that betting or find ways to take advantage of betting on my favorite team that will also give me a good profit in return - like betting against a person or something along those lines.

There's one rule that I always follow, come what may. Never bet on my favourite team, irrespective of how irresistible the odds might look. I can never be truly objective on my favourite team. Will always have some bias or the other, hence, its better to just let it go instead of betting and potentially landing in the world of hurt.

I have made bets like this with my country, I have also done it in the World Cups with the Teams that I like, and I do not do it to lose money, it is more Exciting when you win a bet because you follow your taste and your instinct, that is something It should not be taken as a good example, I know that, but I have made those types of exceptions when they are soccer games where almost all people seek to have entertainment and fun Watching it , there is nothing better than doing it while enjoying yourself in a cafe And healthily, sports bettors do things and research to reach their conclusions, they consider many aspects that are more about the Sport , I don't know, so since I make few bets , I take advantage of them.

Those who Dedicate themselves to this can have a life where it is easier to do things this way for them, much better, but I have always sought to place bets in that sense respecting what I like, even if I know that I am going to lose, for that Reason I don't bet much.

I always say that it is necessary to separate feelings when a person makes sports bets, in sports betting you should not place bets based on feelings. If a person is making sports bets based on feelings then that person will not get anything right, then they will start chasing losses, they will start taking out loans to continue playing and they will think about winning to recover all the losses and they will not be able to do that. Betting on a team means that that person took a lot of time to analyze both teams and after much analysis came to the conclusion that team x is better than team x, which is why he bet on team x. This has nothing to do with feelings

If the person loves or is a fan of team z, there's no problem. because even betting on team x to win, this person who is a fan of team z may still be rooting for team z at the time of the game, but only because of the feeling. because rationally, after a lot of analysis carried out by him, team x will have a greater chance of beating team z and with this victory he will make a profit. and profiting in this fair and honest way is no problem. so much so that whenever the games end, players from both teams greet each other to show that what happened on the field was a game in which there would be a winner and a loser, there is no hate or fighting, after the game everyone should be friends. and the same reasoning
