A gambler must be realistic so that he can apply his money properly and have alternative sources of income along with entertainment and hobbies while betting.
That's right, that's why I always advise thinking about some other hobbies. After all, the most important thing is that even in case of failure it would be possible to gain valuable experience that will help in the future to move success closer to you. For example, in business or self-employment. But in gambling and betting it is almost impossible to draw conclusions after failure, on the contrary, after failure you want to play with increased force, and it is very difficult to force yourself not to think about the loss. I am talking about tilt, which overtakes many gambling lovers.
Hobby are positive activities and usually have good impact on each individual, it is unimaginable whether gambling will be worthy of being called hobby even though some people also consider them to gamble because of hobby and this is quite funny, I agree with you that everyone even those who like to gamble should have another hobby that can really entertain and provide refreshment to the mind and mood.
Sometimes those who have hobbies such as several types of sports will be able to make it an escape, as an illustration when someone experiences failure then they can switch to doing what they like such as playing golf, or football and so on to entertain themselves and keep them from continuing in gambling when there is series of failures.

Long term betting or short term betting are two completely different things. Whether you bet long-term or short-term depends entirely on your conscience. You will achieve success in betting, there is no specific reason and it can be seen that you are able to earn a good profit due to various analytical reasons. I think short term anything is volatile so you have a better chance of succeeding or making more profit with long term bets.

Betting success depends on various factors as well as our own constructive planning.
You are right that both are different long-term and short-term. Constructive planning may work for the short term but for the long term, no plan can work. Especially when anyone plays in a casino there is no way to maintain loss/profit on gambling and there is no alternative way against it.

Indeed, if you can allocate spare money for gambling just to satisfied your lust as part of your entertainment then it will not harm you in terms of your finances, though just like what you said, there are gamblers who think differently hoping for some luck to back them up and treat gambling as their financial means, which most of the time lead them suffering from huge loses, if you can change that perceptions and continue to use gambling as means of enjoyment then there's no issue or whatsoever.

Either you are betting with the public/favorite or you are against as long as you use money that you can afford to let go, it won't hurt you and will not build any problem for you.

In gambling, you can bypass this idea that losses must necessarily lead to big losses. If there is a need for gambling, then you can clearly define the budget that you can use for gambling, let it be $50 per month, and spending more than this amount per month is prohibited. And even better, try to set yourself a goal to double this deposit, so that you focus on winning, not just on spending this money, then perhaps you will not have to spend $50 every month.

The public here mainly consists of bettors who tend to bet on the favorites, whether it’s point spread or moneyline. Most suggestions we see online emphasize that to be considered a smart bettor, you should bet against the public. But what if we don’t bet against ourselves? Can we still find success in sports betting?

When we talk about success, it should be viewed as a long-term process. Some of us may not see ourselves betting long-term, which makes it hard for them to relate to this concept. If someone is just betting for fun, they likely won’t be well-versed in the terminology of sports betting, as their interest is quite limited. In contrast, those who genuinely want to win will study the sports betting market and seek ways to succeed, even if the chances are slim.

It seems to me that the best approach would be to not have time to understand bets well, to do them in small portions and just enjoy the process, without thinking that you can and should make money from this. I literally describe my style of play in gambling and betting and I am glad that I do it this way! Life is full of ways to make money and trying to make money in betting, abandoning all other activities is a really bad decision, I really think so. You need to be realistic and perceive gambling and betting as a hobby and nothing more.
I completely agree with you. Gambling is a form of entertainment through which we spend our free time but some people present it differently. They choose gambling as their means of earning. This is one of the most misconceptions for them and they should return from that attitude. It shows a great way to manage our finances by dividing ourselves into small portions for betting which can keep our chances of winning alive and at random. Adding big meaningful words in short lines in your description style can especially impress any gambler.

Despite betting against the public or not, gamblers should always bet following the guidelines you mentioned above. It doesn't matter if you are going for the favorite or underdog, as long as you apply bankroll management strategies, while enjoying the process of placing bets and watching the matches. After all, that is what gambling is about for those who really play it for the right reason: which goes beyond aiming financial rewards, but also emotional ones.

After all, it's not different from other hobbies. Every hobbies demand money to be practiced, and are only worthy when the individual feels rewarded by practing that activity in the end of the day.
Definitely, the emotional component of gambling is generally the most important thing that gambling itself gives to the player. Of course, everyone likes to win and the emotions from such events probably even exceed those disappointments and self-pity in case of loss. Well, as a rule, this is so. Therefore, players are usually gambling, but also positive people, for whom positive emotions are much more important than any negative.

Even with the players personality, it's just a matter of time and some players may get tired of loosing and wishing to win at some point because there's a joy that comes with winning which only winners gets to experience first hand but away from that they may be enjoying at the early stage but later have their fun cut short when they begin to realize how heavy he amount they have lost is without them actually really benefiting directly from such.
Yeah. This is true in life. However, perhaps you shouldn't be discouraged even in the case of a protracted series of losses, because statistically, a streak of luck will come anyway. But to ease the psychological acceptance of a long series of losses, I think it's worth just constantly remembering that the game itself still brought pleasure because you were always expecting to win, but lost.
We might experience massive emotional distress due to losing but you should always be able to bounce right back. If gambling and losing is causing you to fall deeply into depression, you should seek help. It is normal to feel disappointed but if your entire life and mood revolves now with gambling and you will only be happy if you win then I would suggest for you to try and find other sources of happiness.

It is not fun to lose but it should not cause you intense depression to the point that is concerning and harmful to your well-being. At the end of the day, gambling should be enjoyed and should bring enjoyment more than levels of distress.
This is definitely the best option for your gambling style. Of course, the disappointment of losing happens to all players, but the transition to a depressive state from such a loss does not happen to everyone. And if we talk about the question on the topic of this topic, then in principle it turns out that even sometimes a player gets such a blissful state in how he makes bets that he begins to make them randomly, for example, simply by tossing a coin and seeing if heads or tails come up. In this case, of course, some of the bets will be against the public. And all this will turn out to be just a time of fun entertainment. And sometimes even such random bets will win. But, of course, for such an experiment you need to have a very blissful and kind mood and, in principle, the attitude that you will quickly lose everything, but only the money that you can afford to lose.

If I get you clearly you are saying that if the club we fan let me say I'm a Real Madrid fan and when betting I don't bet against Real Madrid if I can still find success, well the question will depend on the team or club my fan club is playing with and whether my club or team is inform or not because I can't bet against my club when I know the chance of them wining is very big and I can't also bet my club to win when I know the chance of them winning is very small so these are things I will have to consider before betting against myself or not and sometimes even when we bet against ourselves we won't still win and also sometimes when we don't bet against ourselves we won't win also because we are just predicting the possible outcome that is not certain.
Predicting the outcome is generally a complex and extremely confusing matter. This process involves logic, knowledge of the history of previous matches and their outcome, intuition, advice from outsiders, and the mystical component of prediction also has an impact. So it is generally impossible to say who and how makes the decision on bets on some next matches. By the way, bets are always made on two opposite results. And this means that someone made a decision opposite to yours. And his decision was somehow motivated and justified by himself.
It is very difficult for everyone to predict the next match where in a match there is always a decision that is the opposite of the instinct that already exists in him. Even so, the predictions that have been designed will be contrary to motivation,
For some reason it happens to someone, Well in this situation and circumstances it will become complicated in making decisions about a match, ultimately betting in the opposite direction, predictions and motivations will become confusing.

Apparently, the perception of such a game as just entertainment depends very much on the player's personality type. If a person is an optimist in life, then he thinks that he wins all the time, either money or the pleasure of his favorite team winning. If he is a pessimist, then of course, no matter how he bets, he will still think that he lost. But I think that there are still many more optimists than pessimists with such an entertaining style of play.

Such emotional swings are generally an integral part of life, and the time spent on getting such emotions should under no circumstances be considered time of life, wasted senselessly and in vain.

There is an exhilaration that comes with winning although it won't make up for the losses we've made along the way, every decision we make in gambling there is a huge risk involved, so many of us may enjoy the initial thrill but over time, we can start to feel the negative impact of losing streaks both financially and emotionally.

Yeah, but the thing is that you can lose your entire wealth on a single night at the casino...

It's hard to try to keep winning all the time, until you realize that you have lost everything.

Some people never recover from that, ever...
Those who gamble often forget that gambling is like a wormhole that is ready to suck everything we have, in fact when we forget the limits that exist in gambling not only will our wealth run out but it can also destroy our lives.

Honestly, there are many strategies out there that provide theories that can help us make a profit. For me, a strategy is meaningless if it can't give us real results. Betting doesn't have to follow the public, the main thing is to have experience and be consistent in looking for strong information.

For me, the only strategy there is to be versatile in sports activities and that's how you can strongly and confidently make a prediction that is likely to win despite that luck will still play it's role but if you know and follow up with sport updates and watch matches, you can tell which team is fit to win in a match. You can not be right in prediction all the time but with such approach, you can still win your bets quite often. Most times, if I bet on more than 5 accumulated games, it's usually one game that do burst it.
You are absolutely right and I completely agree with you, knowledge in sports is what we need to increase and better our chances of always ensuring that our predictions stands the better chance of coming out just as we said it would.
And such knowledge comes from one staying up to date with things that has to do with sports, and not just any sports, but the type of sports the person love to bet on.

One can not always be watching UFC(for example), and always reading news on UFC matches and expect to win most of his bets on football matches, it is commonly said that the seed a person plants is the same fruit the tree will bear when it grows and starts production, you don't plant mango and expect to pluck or her best rice.
A lover of football who gives himself to news highlights, watching football match in the league of interest, will do well as a sports bettor in that same league.
