I also support what you say, and well, what better example than the bets that Qatar lost in the World Cup, and surely in the match between Argentina and Saudi Arabia many bet in favor of Argentina, and what was the surprise, that Argentina lost and that is something that nobody expected, but soccer gave us that surprise, well that and many more, so sometimes knowledge in sports betting also fails, but because we do not have direct interaction with the players, we really do not know how to they feel when they go to play, we only know the information from the interviews and what the media do, as well as what they themselves declare.
Sports betting has a lot to do with the knowledge of the person to bet on, it is not random, it is known that what influences here is knowledge because it is what is known, for me it is the most important thing, but our emotions and it has happened to me, I know that my team is not doing very well, and that it has the majority of players on the bench to play, and they are the ones that are going to put their faces there the most, so even so knowing that they can lose Because that is how the probability indicates it, I bet in favor of them and of course sometimes I end up losing, that is something that I have not yet been able to control.
Emotions are something that is difficult to control, we do not have the coldness that a robot does and that makes us lose money, but when it is lost, at least I feel that I did not do it wrong and only with that feeling is that one consoles himself.
It's true that even if we have good knowledge about a particular sport, chances are we might lose the bet.
We think that we might win the bet we are placing on the match but sometimes the luck doesn't favor us.
Also, knowing the player personally won't do any good in matches where a team is required.
That's right, but we also have to emphasize something, when we see that a match is safe, things can also be thrown at us from behind, making us lose a lot of money, that's something that happened to me, especially when it was the Madrid vs Barcelona classic, I always bet on Madrid and I lost them, so that kind of thing can happen, because especially emotionally, sometimes they play against each other, I also had many surprises in Qatar, especially with Argentina, you see who lost with saudi arabia, that was clearly a bump at the time, so sometimes reason can work against you, luck is in everything...
Sometimes in sports anything can happen, it is not known what state the players are in, if they are at 100% or if they are really in good spirits, or they are fighting with each other, sometimes this type of problem can cause that the team does not understand each other and loses with any team, I have seen some teams that are not very well with their coach and do not pay attention to the things that they direct, therefore I think that sometimes they lose due to those differences.
I have seen many surprises in soccer matches that are certain, or that we think are certain to win, and we are surprised enough to realize that not everything is certain, there are always many things that we can be wrong about, in sports we can always take surprises.
On top of all this, some of the biggest rollers who bet big have lost huge amounts of money, remember that Drake made a big bet on the World Cup and lost it? The amount of money was excessive, I really couldn't do something like that.
