Instincts are full of emotions that’s why I don’t let my instincts rule over my critical thinking, that will only lead me to greater losses based on my personal experience. However, there are also times that we are already betting based on the command of our instincts unconsciously, something that we can’t do nothing about it. But as much as possible, if you want to bet and maximize your profits, it’s better to bet based on your real analysis and deep assessment on the game, most particularly in sports betting.
When we gamble, whether it is following our instincts or not, we must be able to protect ourselves by preventing emotions that can make things even more messy later. I am sure you yourself know what will happen when you gamble with unstable emotions, of course the results will only make things worse, right? Therefore, as much as possible when gambling, we must protect ourselves to stay in a safe condition.
I agree with you, if indeed to find something safer, then maybe it is better for us to gamble with real analysis such as in sports betting which does require sufficient skills and knowledge to increase the chances of winning.
Emotion handling is something that must be need up to be controlled specially when dealing up with gambling because on the time that you do find yourself being emotional then same goes on having those non planned spending or adding up even more gambling capital then this is where things get messy because loses will really be keeping on piling up. Listening to your instincts on which you will really be basing up
into the things on which you are really that trying out to follow then it will really be that up to you whether you will be betting according into that or will really be following into your common strategy.
There are really moments or times on which you will really be having this kind of hesitation at the moment that those intuition and guts do really kicks in. It will really be just that up to you on how you will
really be handling yourself.
