I’d sticking to options or markets I’m familiar with where I understand the mechanics which for me the safer approach cause experimenting with unfamiliar options adds even more uncertainty. We should bet that aligns with what comfortable to us and knowledgeable about. We know that sports betting is gambling with skill or analysis not by chance we should not bet with unfamiliar options.
It is true that it is not right to bet on unknown options. I should bet on what I can analyze and predict because I can manage a match with my own analysis and prediction. In fact, if you are not experienced in sports, you cannot analyze sports betting very well and if you cannot analyze very well, it creates a lot of difficulties in betting and you have to lose bets. In my gambling experience, I bet on sports betting but I cannot arrange many options there. I bet on a small amount of options. Moreover, I do not bet on many famous clubs. I bet very little. Even then, I bet on all the matches where my prediction gives hundred percent confidence.

When we bet on a game or match, we must immediately analyze the match. Because we should not bet until the match is completely researched, an experienced gambler usually considers the odds of the two teams and the performance of each player in the competition. When I bet on a game or match, I immediately feel the performance of the two teams and the strategies, then I participate in the bet.
Not all bets can be won, some bets are lost and experience is gained, for example, if he loses this match, he will definitely gain experience and will not make this mistake in the next match. If he wants to bet on the next game, then he will definitely bet on his strategies and I think he will definitely be able to win later.

Okay my title state it all, I wouldn't want to go further ranting much but would like to share a screenshot because while booking the game today in a local casino there are some options I came across which I am not used to it but I just feels like to test running those option to see how it works and, it went the other way which made me losing the entire bet. That is, if that I didn't chose that option I could have end up winning today's game but that option which I don't know very well ended up cutting off my game, this led me to share here to know whether you picked unfamiliar options while gambling or you just stick to those options which you knows very well. Below are my screenshots..
I’ve got confused just to check the betting option that you made. It’s a betting combo on a particular match outcome which is equivalent to parlay already but on a single pick.
Bookmaker is now being creative on betting options just to offer higher odds on single bet without the need of parlay while in reality it’s a simplified parlay betting option. I’m always terrible when it comes to parlay that’s why I’m always not creative and exploring when it comes to new bet.
As they say, there's no harm in trying. But since it's something you aren't familiar with, don't risk too much on it. In your case, you're risking your entire bet with that single bet you don't even know. I guess that's where you're wrong.
Most of the time, I stick with those options that are already familiar to me, those that I've grown comfortable with, although it's also interesting to try something new every once in a while. But, again, since that's only trying something new, bets should be minimal. And also it's a prerequisite that you at least understand that which you're risking money on.

When the results are different of course you say that gamblers should also try things that have never been chosen before. So this is a lesson whatever the choice we might win or vice versa, and the defeat because of trying to choose something different from before gives a new experience and is treated normally
this led me to share here to know whether you picked unfamiliar options while gambling or you just stick to those options which you knows very well.
I usually stick with my usual choices, sometimes I choose differently, but that's when I see a chance of winning, but of course it's not a guarantee of winning. 
When I have certain analysis or strategy that I really believe in to win, then will clearly use the option that is usually always used, choosing and trying other options that have never been used before maybe I will only do it to try it out with lower betting capital so that if I lose it is not so disappointing and can still find out and learn how it works to get more suitable strategy or analysis in the future when want to try it again.
Would be very risky to switch to other options that have never been tried when playing or betting with larger amount of capital, I consider it reckless act to do so.

Yes, stick with the recipe. Don't add spices that are not meant for that dish or else you will ruin the food.
I know a lot of members in this forum who gamble and are good at different options. One can almost perfectly predict the stats of a player, (player props) while others can over and under too.
What happened to your whole parlay really sucks, I hate that kind of loss, one out of many. It happened to me a lot of times and that's why I understand. Same as you, I also bet with over and under and then the team winner and I am sticking with that. I did player props multi-bet before and all I do is lose so I rarely do it now. You are right, we should stick at where we are good at.

Obviously, choosing a known option means that it is easy to do, while an unknown option if the bet loses, especially if the bet is not known in the odds, you may feel sorry for choosing it.
In sports betting there are so many odds options including myself not understanding all of them, so whatever I bet is all that is known in the odds.
The problem is that I have tried several times with unknown odds and even lost more than this option.

Personally, I wouldn't use my regular bets to unfamiliar options. Doesn't mean I wouldn't try it sometimes though just to test things out. From your instance OP it seems like you just suddenly chose that unfamiliar option with no regard to how knowledgeable you are to it, so I guess a loss was rather obvious (or more apparent at least, compared to using your usual option). It ain't bad to try out options you don't know, but still, if your goal was to win, don't experiment lol. Those are two contradicting ideas after all. You can still win yes, but you probably wouldn't even know wtf happened even if you did.
I am only stick to the ones that I know. But I have noticed that the more I used a gambling site, the more I know about the different odds there. The one that was difficult to know for me was handicap which I know some years ago. They are all simple terms but which may differ from casino to casino as some can be called different things there. Do not let me deviates from the topic. If you are unsure of the odd type, best not to choose it. Go for only the ones that you know.
This is where I have to blame myself because already my instinct didn't want me to pick that but I just said since is gambling then what more? Today I have seen how that option works, though if that I followed my instinct I could have won a total of 7,000 plus but since it's a test run I was doing I wouldn't pick it next time rather go for the options (Market) that I knows more better.
Yes you are right, the reason why I actually choose this local site is that it let me see their past 5 matches so, from there I can know how to book and do my prediction but on few sites I do used doesn't have that feature. I wasn't actually going for the odds rather to explore the options to know how they works, even though the amount used to stake is not that huge I have learnt.
I’d sticking to options or markets I’m familiar with where I understand the mechanics which for me the safer approach cause experimenting with unfamiliar options adds even more uncertainty. We should bet that aligns with what comfortable to us and knowledgeable about. We know that sports betting is gambling with skill or analysis not by chance we should not bet with unfamiliar options.

No, I will not trying some options that I don't know before I research and will stick to the usual thing that I always did before. It is curiosity that makes us want to try the new option but it is better we learn before we apply it. We never know how it works if we are not research and makes us lose while we can actually win all betting. Maybe that is a new feature that the casino apply but we don't have to use it because we risk our money in that bet and we don't know what is the outcome. But some gamblers will try that option because of curiosity but they must accept the risk.
So far I have never chosen a new option or an option that I have never known before about how the scenario works, but that does not mean it is impossible for me to try it but it is also just to be used as an experiment regardless of the results.
I rarely get involved in sports betting and prefer to play on online casino sites because for me it is more fun, for me trying a new option is the same as trying a type of game that I have never played before or that I never know about how the game works, but in my opinion when you try a new option that you have never known before then from the start you should be really ready to lose money, that's all. Besides, in my opinion regardless of whether you try a new option or not, when it's time for you to lose then you will also lose, losing is not a big deal for me.

If you never tested it since then and not proven why would you choose a different option?
That's simple it depends in your analysis without analyzing it when choosing that option that's a totally gamble because you are not using your skills to analyze the game first. Unless you are following something to stick with your strategy?
If that's the case that's totally a gamble because you are not analyzing the game but it seems you got more wins than 1 lose based in your screenshot with 2 ongoing.
There's no bad to stick with your old option you know if its proven gives you positive result then stick with your option you know.

Well sometimes even the most familia options get our bet slip destroyed while the new options end up with wining results. It can happen anyhow it chooses to because gamble doesn't have a fixed pattern, and that is why it is basically a game of luck. Though I agree that sticking to options you understand is better than trying a new option which you have no clue of, I've tried exploring new option other than the popular win, handicap, goals,corners etc and trust me the result hasn't been more favorable, though I have also won by trying an entirely different selection from my usual and it felt good.
This is definitely the kind of mistake I don't make, because when I analyze the games before I place bets I check what market options the bookmaker is offering and then I do research on the advantages and disadvantages of that market. For example, if I analyze the game and see that the Asian handicap market has higher odds, then I research more about each option in the Asian market and only after that do I place a bet. Now, if someone is betting on an option that they don't know, then that person is not placing sports bets correctly.
If I’m betting and most of my games are games I know very well and I carried out my analysis on them before I went on to select them I usually don’t risk that game by including random games or things I’m not sure of.
But in situations where I’m just randomly selecting games, that’s where I get to learn what those other options are - I don’t dare to put them in my main game but one that I just pick some random games amounting to a very large odds and then put a very little amount expecting to cashout something even if it’s not yet completed.

With huge odds, I'd definitely go with the options that I am familiar with and won't add a gamble to an actual gamble.
How OP supposed to know he might choose something wrong is the huge odd. Odd of 3.6 is very high in sport betting and will most likely lead to loss. I do not think a club can easily win PSG in French leagues. It is possible but the odd is low. If an odd is getting more than 2 odds, I prefer to check the match very well before I can bet with it. 
We learn every day either from our mistakes or from others own. What I normally do if I see an unusual option or an option I'm not aware of is either contact someone for a better explanation or use my Google I don't just like placing bets blindly again; that enables me to follow up my games properly and cash out if the tune of the game wants to change.
This type of ends result is the reason why I like using the cut one option each time I'm playing more than 6 games in one bet slip; the only disadvantage is that the potential winning amount will reduce.

I have to zoom the image wholly so that I am able to see what those bets are and that's so close for you OP. I think every regret that we get in betting with uncommon strategies that we use, if it has given us some nice results we'd be happy. If the normal strategies that we know that we are very familiar with gives us some good wins, we'd also be happy and vice versa. Since you're thinking about the normal strategy that you should have used, you should stick to it because of that loss that you've made. With huge odds, I'd definitely go with the options that I am familiar with and won't add a gamble to an actual gamble.
