Don't know how to put this but I'll try. So lets say your fav club is about playing against a tougher club which on paper they're far better than your club but in your inner most mind you want your club to win therefore, when it comes to placing a bet, which club will you go far. Will you risk losing the bet to back your team winning that match, when you know the chances of them succeeding are almost impossible but since it's football anything is possible or will you bet against you club winning that match but while the match is ongoing you'll be routing for your club to win (in other words routing for yourself to lose your bet)?

How do you balance the emotion of wanting your club to win but not ready to lose your bet in the toughest of games.

You don't have to mix business and pleasure, you need to separate the two when needed. Your aim is to make money out of the situation, if it's very obvious that the team in question can beat your favourite team then there is no reason betting against them because you'll lose the bet and that's not what you want. Keep emotions aside and do the business.

In gambling field there is the big chance to loose the fund but if you are cautious and make the betting odds pick on the time right time with the correct team means there is no chance to loose maximum.
Sometime you will find the lose but at that time we should be panic and sad because of that.
Play the party without unwanted emotion to hit the big jackpot.

If you are betting for fun then you can go ahead and bet for your favorite club against the favorite to win, but if you are not comfortable betting against your team then don't do it all, there will be times when your favorite team will be up against a weaker team and that is the best opportunity to bet for your team and cheer at the same time.
Don't betray yourself and your team just because of money if you are very loyal to your team, if they find out they will think your support is not all out.

I don't think any loyal fan will ever play against his team no matter the desperation for money that is in them, That would be considered the height of betrayal and definitely desperation of highest order. I found myself in this kind of situation some time ago and I knew right there that my team had very little chances of winning that game.

Well, the majority of all gamblers acting like this. No one gamblers to be called a loyal fan, I noticed that most of them want to earn money and seeking a team that to be consider for them in a win-win situation. Sounds like a betrayal if you had a team and you support the opponent but the fact you pick and bet the team that it is not a weak team and chasing a profit.

Selfish thing in my opinion. But if you believe your favorite team wins, it doesn't hurt. If you bet to get a profit in advance and take advantage of the situation in the bet. Then you will choose the team with a greater chance of winning.

In short, in betting sports team there is no club favoritism at all. If where is the team for you that having a good potential to place then, you go. Because that does not matter how you will die-hard fan to them, the main reason for betting is to choose which team we're going to win and earn profit by them by placing your bet. You will bet even the team you have chosen is weak and that is because of your emotion.

I believe also in a soccer match for example, everything can happen in the field. But the fact is it's hard to happen, a great team will win and a weak team will lose.

I truly needed to make money on that day so desperately and I had no choice than to play in favor of my team and stand the risk of losing my money, But as God would have it, we miraculously won that game and that was how I got back my money with profit. I could only imagine how I would be looked at on that day If I betrayed my team or backed off out of fear.

I don't see a point in risking your money on the team which you already know that would lose the fight?
You are betting to gain money and your club should also know about it since you also know that the opponent have a greater chance of winning so it shouldn't hurt their feelings.
Back when DOTA 1 was so popular and it is being used to gamble my friends would also try to win some but if I know that their opponent is much stronger then I would just bet my money on the opponent,
It shouldn't really be a problem unless you are also playing in the game.

do what you think is good and better, if you are confident and comfortable go ahead and place your bet on it. Then, if you're not comfortable very simple
just don't do it. Never make a decision were in the end you will no be happy with it or you will regret it, just simple as that.

You are totally right my buddy when you think you are ready to face what is wrong gona happen unfortunately then you can gamble again but I guess it’s worst thing is to let your emotions effect your earning from gambling. Just relax think and try to gamble with all your effort never be so quick to win in seconds keep calm, your money so decision will be yours.

Emotions have always been harmful in business no matter which business it is. People who mix their emotions of greed & fear with their gambling often end up losing everything. May it be trading, may it be gambling or may it be any other business emotions make you lose a lot of money. So, now it comes to favoritism. Basically best thing to do when your favorite club is playing is not to gamble at all. because you will always be inclined towards your favourites no matter how bad your team looks on paper. Infact in every scenario related to money whenever emotions begin to kick in try to drop the whole decision.

Quote from: TheCoinGrabber on September 28, 2019, 10:07:59 AM

If you are really after making money, then you bet against your favorites if you know they are outmatched. Betting for your losing club won't do you NOR they any favor.

You just "feel" you are supporting them but there's no substance to that feeling. Now, if your fave seems poised to win, then that's fine if you bet on them.

It's easier said than done people do gambling & football for fun and one can never enjoy fun if you are betting against your favourite team.

Support your favorite club but place your bet on the other club that you think that is going to win, simple as that. Your favorite club won't give you any money either they win or lose, it is all on you, so choose which club or team that has the potential to win, it is all about being practical. Balance your wants and needs, you want to cheer you favorite team but bet on the team that will help you to earn money because you need it, we all need money.

Forget about your pride and go always for the right decision that would benefit you.

Gambling is about winning. If you are sure that a team is winning why would you still bet on your favorite team if uou know that you can surely win betting on the other side. There's no sense betting on your favorite team just to have a peace of mind that you have supported them till the end. Gambling is about money, nothing else.

There is no such thing as a sure thing in sports betting, yes, you have your favorite team but you can either pass when you think your team will not be able to win because its your favorite team, sometimes it will cause your a problem if you cannot balance well your analysis and your emotion.

The fact that you put your bet on your favorite team, you believe that they will win and that will also give you much enjoyment while watching the game as you will surely cheer for you team to win, it's different case for those who are professional sports bettor as they have a professional approach.

For me, my club is main one, when you have a favorite club, you can't help but have to trust your favorite club completely. I often bet with my friends, I know that my favorite club is fighting a club that is far more resilient, but I have very high confidence in my favorite club so I don't care about anything except my trust in my favorite club. The point is if you support something, you have to support it wholeheartedly. A quote that can make you more confident about your favorite club "If you don't support us when we lose, then don't support us when we win"

Only for greedy people who only gamble for money, I understand that all gambling players here have a goal about money but when can we enjoy this gambling game when we only focus on money? This is what makes a lot of threads about greed because they only focus on money. And maybe you say it like that because you never support your favorite team with all your heart, and remember also gambling is not just a matter of strength but luck.

In sports betting I dont have favorite team so everytime I place my bet im looking for the odds on which is likely to win the game. But in this situation if ever I have to choose between my favorite team and the stronger one I think I have to set aside my emotions. Sports betting is gambling therefore whats on my mindset is to win.

But just like what I said I dont have favorite team so its easy for me to decide if ever I was put in the situation.

This was just an example,lets take boxing as sport to bet one player is your most favourite and another one is most strongest on paper so who is the person you will bet on.

Literally we have to pick the strong one to win since we are gambling for win.Or just skip betting and cheer your favourite player even if he lose it won't hurt you financially.

Well, in business world, patronizing quality and expensive essential products instead of the cheap and poorly made ones is not really betrayal. It'd still be difficult to patronize the poorly made ones even if your favorite company is making them. I guess this should be the mindset of a good gambler. He does not allow emotions becloud his judgment. He can only love and support his club but when it comes to judging the two opponents with his money, he must judge right.

Oh this is actually tough... It actually depends if the gap between my favorite team and the opposing team is significantly large then I might consider betting on the latter.

To give you an actual example, in Dota 2, I used to love this specific team and I bet most of my resources in every game that they have. Despite having their roster change making them relatively weaker than their original form, I still bet on the team. But there was one instance where the stakes and gap were really large (at that time they were the number 7 team vs the number 1 team), so I did not hesitate to vote on the latter.
