Die-hard fan. I've been there. Betting for them even though the odds are too obvious that they are not going to win. It actually satisfies my need because I love betting for underdogs a lot of times. But, there are times that we need to stop ourselves when we are losing money at the same time.
We can always just pretend that we made a bet for them, enjoy watching the game and cheer for them as if we are part of the team.
It's not wrong but we need to be responsible with our bets. Try arguing with a die-hard fan and you won't win. Their minds are closed and they will protect the team they are rooting whatever the argument could be.

hmph..
Maybe for some people betting on a team they love, even though it has the potential to lose, is a gambler's mistake. However, football fans tend to have loyalty to the club in difficult conditions. This is makes many people continue to bet on the team even though it has the potential to lose. It's not just about higher odd for lower team or potentially lose. His feelings and love for the club made him choose to bet on his team, no matter the results. Others are people who don't love the club, but want to take a chance on the bet. well, in the end, this is a world of gambling, sometimes to be strange to accept.

Question: Can you have so much love for your team to behave like this guy that even when you know your love fans team would loose a match, would you still further stake on the match against your team?
Remember that we are catching funs here and whoever chasing after profits is at its own will.

This will have to depend on two things, if he is betting on the team only for the reason of love he had on them then i think such gambler is yet to know what is at stake for him because he is just wasting his time, money and efforts on nothing, but on a contrary reason, someone can decide on taking risk on the bet to go for the small losing team for a win, i have seen a lot of scenarios where a small team beats up a big one by chance of luck which if he does that on such purpose is never a bad idea, he is taking high risk and could earn big odds through such, even though not all cases of bets or games happens that way.

Actually, you don't have to bet money just because we as supporters bet on the team we love, for example I am very happy with a team like Manchester City, I know that they are a strong team and last season they could win the treble, but this season they are not as strong. last season and I admit it consciously so it's not because I love this team that I continue to bet on them, actually there are other options betting on other teams and not betting on this team. for example, when Manchester City played Liverpool yesterday where I chose to bet on a draw.

I don't doubt the strength of the team that I love, it's just that I know that it's difficult to win at Anfield so I prefer to bet on a draw even though Manchester City won at the start but it didn't last long. Liverpool was able to score a goal and the result was a draw, sometimes we don't have to either. betting on the team we love, there are many other options that you can bet on and it doesn't always have to be your favorite team either, after all it is enough to be a supporter who is not too excessive and just normal, so betting doesn't have to be betting on your favorite team, betting on the team you really have. The mentality to win is not to have the mentality to lose.  Grin

While in a football view centre last night, some of the football fans were arguing with the opposite football fans strongly defending their teams.

There one of the team guy said... Yes we loosed the match but that does not mean I will deny my team for that because the nature of football is that you would win somedays and you looses somedays too.
So he say... I love my team to the core that I will always stand by them and even if it is obvious that they were going to loose a match, I will still bet in support that they would win the match.

Question: Can you have so much love for your team to behave like this guy that even when you know your love fans team would loose a match, would you still further stake on the match against your team?

When it comes to gambling, it's entirely a different environment. That your bragging right as football fan changes to a business mindset, if the opponent club is going to obviously win my team and i know that deep down in me, i will definitely play against my team, this is business and shouldn't be emotionally attached with mere football fantasy, this can only happen in a case where i decide to play a bet against my team, but if its on neutral ground and me not involving my money, i will the ordinary want my team to win.

Just because I'm a die-hard fan of a certain team doesn't really mean that I should bet on them to always win, I'll be falling victim of what is called fan bias, which is a tendency for a fan to make decisions based on their emotions rather than objective information.

This involves me betting on my team to win even when the odds are against them, gambling is unpredictable and you can't just expect that particular team will always win simply because you want to see them win, such sentiments should only come in play when a fan is merely being supportive to his team but not to extend it to gambling, because the result would be very fatal.

Soccer fans are a movement that not only supports their favorite team, but also follows them no matter how far to play. I love soccer, but I've never been an avid fan. Although when I was in high school, some people I knew were so into soccer that they traveled all over the country with their team to support them. Each of us chooses how to spend his leisure time, the main thing is that it does not overstep the boundaries of what is allowed and does not violate the laws.

If we talk about betting, I do not see anything wrong when a bettor bets against his team. Such a bettor knows better than anyone what condition the players of the team are in, so why should he not make money if he is sure that the team is not at its best.

No one can predict the outcome of a game correctly and that is why it called is called gamble. A team that you think will not win due to their poor performance can disappoint you later after the match by winning. The guy can bet on his club even in their weak state, is because he is a die hard fan of his club.

Sometimes, even the weak club can win a string club, football is unpredictable. However, we all have our choices on how to spend our funds, and we can bet on whatever club we fill like betting on. Personally, I will not bet on my club in their weak state, rather I will be on the other club that is stronger than them. I am gambling does not mean that I should intentionally throw my funds away, even though I am gambling with the amount that I can afford to lose.

Yes why not? that indicate that person is real supporter of that team and not a bandwagon which if he's team lose then he go away then support the team who became champion this year and then again cycle repeat once there's new champion.

That guy don't care if they win or lose since what's important for them is to have fun watching his favorite team performs. Chasing profit maybe not the real case here and maybe we can say that is the main intention of the fan or sports bettor if he always go on the teams which have more chance to win.

Looking at the content of your story it seems that I will conclude that the person you told is a true supporter who always defends and supports his team regardless of the circumstances, and his understanding of soccer is about winning and losing it is clear because that is how the game cycle runs in every season.

On the other hand I have several teams that I favor but I am not too totality in terms of supporting and maybe I can be said not to be a true supporter, but I think this does not matter because everyone has their own choices in any case, and if you ask me if I will be willing to risk money even though I know that my team will lose because of something like the performance of my favorite team is lower than the opposing team then obviously the answer is I will not risk anything and I am not more than just giving them support. On the other hand, I don't think it makes sense to bet when you know in advance that your team is likely to lose for some reason, and it doesn't matter if you're a true fan or not, it's still a wise decision to make because it's a matter of money and if you don't bet then you're not going to lose any money, right? Yes, favoring and supporting a team doesn't always have to mean betting.

This should be the actually meaning of gambling for fun that so many people talk about. I know a number of gamblers that do this especially in sports betting when their favorite team is playing. They think they are standing in solidarity with their team and that is one way of showing loyalty. On the contrary, there are also people that avoid playing their favorite team so they don't get their emotions involved in the gambling decision making process.

I do not gamble with my emotions attached because I see gambling as business so I will not place bet on a team I support. It does not even make sense to play a team you know is weak and cannot win, unless perhaps you just want to throw the money away.

I'm not a team fanatic and I believe in the saying gamble with money that you can afford to lose and will not hurt your pocket, but if there's a chance of upset I'll bet a small amount an amount that I'm good in losing but if there's zero chance of winning like my favorite team facing a powerhouse team like US in basketball, I prefer not to bet, you have to be practical and realistic in your bet and you don't have to bet blindly.

It happens. This is why hardcore fans cannot gamble especially when their bets are only for their team most of the time.
I understand the feelings because I have these mistakes too. I have been a fan of two teams in the NBA and sometimes it hurts my feelings when I bet against them.
There's a solution though, don't bet at all. Especially if you knew that the losing chance is way higher than the winning chance. Sure, the profits will be high because it's a high-risk bet for the underdog but still, it's not wise to just waste away money for the love of the team. You love them, but I doubt they love you back.
If a gambler's aim is to win but being a fan is a wall to that winning chance then just forget about betting. A big fan can still enjoy the game without the money on the line.

First of all, I don't have a team yet, all teams are mine or none of them are mine. Let's say if I were on place of that guy then I would also do the same but I would bet minimum amount that may not cause any trouble for me even if I lose it. I'm very sure if the guy thinks like me then he would also bet with lowest amount possible in order to avoid facing huge losses because of favoring a weak team.

There is an option to not bet and just support the team you love. you don't have to lose money out of support, I'm not a rich guy to bet blindly out of loyalty, and I can still have fun watching and cheering for my team I'm not a risk taker I want to bet where I have a chance to win.
I am a fanatic on some of my favorite teams I will just hope and cheer that they win, my reasoning is I'm just a regular worker and every bet for me is important if it's not worth betting, then go for it, I'm sure they understand it.

I can Support my team in every other ways but I can not  bet on them when it's already obvious that they will not win the game, it is considered foolishness to do such and not love for the team. You can not do anything to displease your self while pleasing your team meanwhile those football players are receiving salary but the gambler or team supports are not getting paid for their support, so while will I throw away the opportunity to win a game just to gamble against my team. I will not hesitate to gamble against my team if I know that they will lose the match.

There’s no such thing asan obvious lose in sports. The odds is just placed based on statistics of the team as reference but doesn’t mean that team with higher odds will surely lose.

You are betting on sportsbook because you like to support the team you are betting to win the game not just because you place bet on it. Regardless of the odds, I usually place bet to my favorite team as way to enjoy the game. My priority is for my team to win and not about my bet. Anything can happened on sports and your team will not be in lose no matter how high the odds until the game end. There’s a lot of bet with 1.01 odds that still resulted to lose.

This is the very definition of fanatics.

But in sports betting, we should not used our emotions, we should used statistics and numbers to see who has the "potential" to win in a game, and not that because we love one team we will always bet on them. So for me I wouldn't stake if I know that my team is going to lose, it's not smart in my opinion. And we all know that gamblers make money because they know where to put their bet, that is the team that will likely to win.

It all depends on how the team is doing, right, if the opponent is better I wouldn't mind betting on my team's opponent, after all, we're talking about money lol. Betting against doesn't mean you stop liking or following your favorite club, in my opinion if you don't mix games with passion you can make good money betting.

This is not love it is either a low level of intelligence.

Better not bet than to bet on a team when you know they'll eventually lose because of strong fanaticism.

A display of high intelligence is to bet on your team to win and the other team to win. In the end even if your team losses, you end up with a heart break but with money in your pocket.

I think this is Arbitrage Betting which I discussed in one of my [ DO NOT POST SESC LINKS ]OP's[/url]
