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.

It's never been easy because the pressure is in your hands. It is also difficult to get passed through that emotions and betting against the majority will increase the pressure further. But if you gonna ask me, I will choose what I want even though it is against everyone else's bet. You need to learn how to deal differently those two things are. Like, do your best as a fan of your fave club but as a gambler, you can wish your inner self that the other team will win.

Yes. I do it for my favorite team. I'm not making or losing a fortune with sports betting so I bet the way I want.

That is the wrong thing to do. I dont understand if you are posting this for the sake of posting, because if someone would take your words for granted they would likely go to the wrong methods of gambling which is relying on emotions. If you bet on your favorite team then you will lose at least 50% of the time - just like a random coin toss. Its not the best team and neither would they remain the best. Many small matches are also fixed to trap people like you, where the win or loss would not matter but the gamblers will lose because the underdog will win.

All these things need to be kept in mind, sports betting is not so easy. Cool

Though betting on the opposing team of your favorite team is also a good strategy to keep you happy. i.e. if you win the bet, you'll have money even though your favorite team loses. And if your favorite team wins, you'll be happy even if you lose your money. But mostly, I think my favorite team are always capable to win against any teams.

Not just your friends, I already saw my friends too. Their losses their win money because they cannot control the emotion although I already told them to quit the game. But they won't listen to me because I think, at that time, they are too greedy to chase more winning. I cannot do anything while I stay beside them and after they lose, they regret it.

I have to be very frank and blunt on this issue, supporting another team that's not your favorite regardless how strong it might be is not that easy to do. When you see your friends that do that, I think you shouldn't consider their actions as stupidity but strength. I can't imagine myself supporting another team because I know my team is on the weaker end, I might rather stand a chance of losing the money or not participating at all but to support an opposition team all in the name of looking for money.

I have been in a situation like this in the past and just like your friend I lost a very huge sum of money that was meant for something important. We must definitely regret but then, life goes on as its worth it either way.

Perhaps, they are smart to see the situations. When they see which team is stronger than the other team, they will choose it regardless that team is their favorite or not. But they still give support to their teams.

It happens to my friends in the soccer game. If they see their favorite team doesn't have a chance to win, they will change their bet to the opposite. But sometimes, they don't place any bets, and they don't watch the match too because that will be sad to see their favorite teams will lose at the end of the game.

It is always a bad idea to bet with your heart rather than with your head.If your team is worse than their opponent and everyone know that I think it is quite stupid to bet on your team.The only people that would do that are fans that are extremely addicted to their team and they follow them day and night,only talk about them most of the day,these kind of fans would surely bet always on their team but reasonable person would not do so.

As what you have said, typical gamblers will bet to what they've known who have advantages. They will not follow their undying support with the teams that they've loved since they are here to gamble and wanted to win. Only die-hard fans and stupid people will take the risk even they've known that the chance of winning is too little.

Nonsense at all if you will proceed just to support your favorite team and cry after suffering from loses that you've got.

I think that betting and supporting are two mutually exclusive things. Heart and brain shouldn't come in pairs while wagering your money on sports events.

In my opinion with betting, you have to turn of heart and turn on the brain. That's the only option if you want to be successful.

Ok but the second question haven't been answered, don't understand why the repliers have intentionally avoided answering the question. I said if you bet against your club to win due to the other team are favorite, now when the match is ongoing and you start routing for your team to win isn't that like wishing yourself to fail? Now in a situation you start routing for your team to lose just for the bet you placed isn't that been a bad club fan.

Anyway you picture this, you would be at the receiving end being the bad guy either by wanting your club to lose or supporting your club while end up losing your bet. I experience this myself during the Chelsea vs Liverpool game that's why I'm trying to understand the solution. The avoidance solution is the best so far but I consider anything that has to do with running away from a problem to be the last solution.

Crazy as it would seem, I have been guilty of playing this trick, I sometimes worry so much about my team not winning a game so I indeed bet against my preferred team (usually a small or average bet that could bring quite a huge profit of at least x20 odds). It's just like me hedging my bet with what would make me happy. At least I wouldn't mind loosing a few bucks to see my team win a very important match, but sometimes even tough I win my bet, it hurts that my team lost and the financial gain doesn't make up for how I truly feel, as it would have been the case if I placed a bet on Liverpool to qualify after my team winning in Nou Camp during last season's UCL quarter finals.

After sportsbet partnered with Watford i've been following their matches and really want to support them but I can't to afford betting on every match knowing they're against better teams. I always take the favorite whenever odds are close to even but if it's not close I go for asian totals. On the sportsbook sub i've seen tons of comments saying they're fans who support their teams (baseball,basketball,etc) and wouldn't think twice betting against them if it means making profits.

Yep,,,that's the perfect mind setup and for successful betting every gambler should follow this way to make handsome profits. When its a matter of losing funds then its not gonna be wise decision to take risks for emotions. In this case following the way of making profits is always should get higher priority rather than being emotional for favorite team. Maybe sometime its hard to support opposite team for making money but that's a different taste

.

Mostly our emotions bring us troubles, it usually eating our good mind into having in wrong decision. How it badly affecting our plan and as well as our strategy and this will be an opportunity of the others to rob us. Thus, it is not all about how'd we feel but also we have to think about it wisely. All the losses we have to experience is not because we don't have skills and strategy but most likely because of our emotions who controlled us.

In this case, I shouldn't let my emotion to take over. It's the worst thing that most gamblers does until now, resulted into losses. Gambling is about money and I wouldn't bet on a club where in the first place I know they have no chance. Moral support would be the best thing to do since it's your own club. But I won't also bet into opposing club for the sake of money, even if I know they are going to win. If you did such thing, it's a sign that you are greed in money and will do whatever the consequences are.

^ Good thing there are more people like this. Moral support whether it will lose or win is a great attitude that you had shown a solid and die-hard fan to them. These kinds of people are not gamblers, they are loyal fans of what club they had supported. Because gamblers are always thinking of money, they want to win and chase money. They are willing to betray their club supported before just for sake of money. Nevertheless, we can't blame them because each of us has a different perspective regarding that matter.

Gamble who followed their emotion in gambling will likely to fail because this kind of game is played by strategy which its your mind that will think of the strategy. Also, you are vulnerable of losing since you are weak in controlling your emotion, you might not be able to follow your strategy strictly.

I like to site some example in bankroll management, and will be this kind of scenario.

You are original plan is to bet using flat betting in any game, regardless if you are so confident or not, and then you experience a cold losing streak, so you decide to chase your loses and ended up losing,... so we see its not effectively as we can't accept loses which are normal in gambling.

It's very difficult to answer but for me in my opinion its a bad idea as weto have a second option because you know no one know what will happen after the game. What i mean who will win after the fight . So much better to focus on where you are comfortable and forget your emotions. Be smart enough when choosing a team because that's the most important .

That means you have some doubt that you might be wrong, if that's what you think better not gamble in a certain game.
Actually in sports betting, there are a lot of games to choose from, even if you are just focus in one league and has only limited games but if you are not sure, you should have the discipline to pass, that will determine that you are matured enough and you how to control your emotion.

Without discipline, you will end up experiencing a lot of loses in gambling,, that's based on my experience.

What you have stated is not the reality with the common men and women. People support their own country, but they will think twice before placing a bet. Here if one is going based on his favorite team and not on other information then he is not meant to be a gambler.

From my view we can support our team, but when it comes to odd selection we need to do the proper analysis and pick the odd that has got increased winning probability.

You don't have to mix business and pleasure, you need to separate the two when needed.

Keep emotions aside and do the business.

Right, dont' waste our money if we think our favourite club is not play good. I think bet or not bet, we still can support our favourite team. It is better than suffer in 2 things, our fav club lose and our money gone. Maybe with totally support them although they lose without pick they on bet already good because some fans usually leave their fav team when the team not play good anymore.

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 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.

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.

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, 11:07:59 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.

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.

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.

I also felt the hardship in choosing between two polar ideas. I want to bet on my favorite team and choose the highest possibility of winning at the same time but it seems impossible. Hence, you must choose if you will still go for your desire team or go for profit. If you want a profit then you must be practical and go for the team that is leading. Favoritism and instinct must be separated.

Some people cannot control the feeling in a long time because if they see their club team don't have a chance to win, they will piss off and some of them will leave the match.

thats true and i witnessed some of my friends do this . some didnt even bother to watch the begining of the match just to avoid being emotional but they shouldnt think negative because the match didnt ended yet . there is still a chance that thier fav team can win .

Not just your friends, I already saw my friends too. Their losses their win money because they cannot control the emotion although I already told them to quit the game. But they won't listen to me because I think, at that time, they are too greedy to chase more winning. I cannot do anything while I stay beside them and after they lose, they regret it.

when you're betting you always bet for the team or player to win so it's more of supporting the other team subconsciously.

Some people will support the strong team than to support the favorite team or player, and that is not because they don't have a favorite team. But that is because of they the chance for the strong team to win. And after all, they want to make money from the game. I see some supporters of the soccer in my city and yes, no matter their favorite team win or lose, and they still support it.

Same mindset but if you are heavily a fun you will surely bet for them but if we do have some real talks on here then no dumb person will make and lose up some money yet its clear on whose gonna won.If you do see your club is on the line but the opponent stats is much more way better then we cant deny that our brains do know on where to bet but as mentioned when emotion sets in sometimes its really hard to control it up.It will vary on which one would you prefer to follow.

If you don't value anything on that club then you might wanna choose to bet on the other club because you know they could win prior to their statistics record compared to your favorite club. Your reasoning will depend on your emotions and thinking, you will then balance everything to choose the right choice. Actually, there's no right or wrong choices here since it is just a battle of your heart and mind.

Or simply a battle of money making and simply being a fanatic because if you do hardly support a club then you dont mind on betting on them even if you lose
but if you do play or make bets to make money then your analysis and guts would tell you on which way you should go.You are right this will depend on emotions and thinking
because not all people do have the same mindsets.Case to Case basis for short.

As they say, people can always do anything for soccer, especially for their club but does that also include losing money intentionally.

I only bet for fun and especially when my favorite team plays I like to place a wager just to increase my "skin in the game" if you know what I mean. There is no better way to spend an evening than placing a wager on your team and going to cheer for them on the stadium! Grin

I don't rely too much on betting on my favorite team because I think it will still lose against a stronger team. I prefer teams that have potential to win I don't want to risk my money just because of that, it will make me confused to bet. Sometimes we have to give up our beloved team to lose compared to having to lose money but I'm still a fan.

Well, that is a good decision in a wise move. Pick a team that has the potential to win, no just because it is your favorite team but what if there is another team much better than them. Losing money is just because of emotion is not the right thing to do. Be practical, not just feel pitty to them. You are betting with someone else and I don't risk my fund just either.

Frankly speaking, emotions overrule judgement in my case. My favorite club is Barcelona and whenever, wherever and against whomsoever they play, I always bet on Barcelona FC. To make it simplified, I bet only on W-D-L full-time in the case of Barcelona matches. To be honest, it adds too much thrill while actually watching the game.

This is hard to decide on which club you are going to place a bet and you know that your had choosen club is weak and you know that it is the underdog team. If you are not sure don't place to much big amount in placing a bet, just spend that you can afford to lose. Or else if you can cheer the team that you don't like but you are placing a bet just for wanting a profit. But for me, I personally support my club, winner or lose I will be there.

I don't have a club that is really favored so I've never had a problem about it. But when we talk about emotions when betting then of course it will make a mess in bets, because emotions can come from anywhere and not always from the team in betting. So basically, make a safe bet for you, it doesn't matter if it's the favorite team or not but when the opponent that has to fight is a stronger opponent and we realize that, then I don't think we need to continue betting and another option is to make another bet that might be an easy winning for you.

Being emotional in betting is normal. The important thing is not to carry on with emotion. In betting I will choose clubs that have a higher chance of winning. If my favorite club has a small chance of winning then I will choose another club. Because I don't want to lose my funds. But even if it turns out that I lost, I have to be ready. In betting, winning or losing is normal. It is impossible if we always win without lose.

It's hard to say that. If your favorite team is playing and it is underdog, will you surely be betting on the opposing team? That is really hard to tell. You tell me, can you imagine yourself watching your favorite team play, and you cannot cheer for them, and you are deep inside wishing for them to lose because you are betting on the opponent? That's unbelievable!

Or do you have a favorite team or player? I mean one that you truly consider yourself a die-hard fan of?

Being emotional in betting is normal.

As long as you can handle your emotion properly then we call that normal.
We are human to feel happy and upset with our bet but with proper discipline, we will be able to do the right thing every time we are in a situation.

Quote from: Deborah Christine on September 27, 2019, 09:05:51 AM

The important thing is not to carry on with emotion. In betting I will choose clubs that have a higher chance of winning. If my favorite club has a small chance of winning then I will choose another club. Because I don't want to lose my funds. But even if it turns out that I lost, I have to be ready. In betting, winning or losing is normal. It is impossible if we always win without lose.

That's true, what's only important is that you will win most of the time so you will result at a profitable rate.
You also need to learn how to manage your bankroll as even if you have a good winning percentage but with lack of discipline, you might be able to lose everything in one bet only, that's being emotional is too risky when gambling.

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.

I don't rely too much on betting on my favorite team because I think it will still lose against a stronger team. I prefer teams that have potential to win I don't want to risk my money just because of that, it will make me confused to bet. Sometimes we have to give up our beloved team to lose compared to having to lose money but I'm still a fan.

Anyone who wants be a successful gambler in the art of sports, needs to be able to separate wishes from reality and this is one thing successful stock brokers and traders have imbibed. A company that they have been part of even helped their stock got listed and they will short against that same company despite the love and attraction they have to it and its owners especially if its being floated by an entrepreneur. Its nothing personal, its purely business and nothing else.

People who tend to be emotional about a particular club should not even move towards gambling except they stay away from that match where their favorite club is playing. I have seen guys gets dejected after the end of a match not because their favorite teams loses but because they have lost money when they quite know that their team does not have a chance in the tournament.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)

Using your emotions to make yourself "back" your favorite club/team/player is the wrong approach to betting. You will almost always end up losing your money if you follow this road. You have to be impartial in your decision and analysis and place bets in a calculated manner to profit. Casinos encash your money from emotions so dont let them do so.

You never know when a goal might turn the tide of the game and you will end up worried that your team will lose and this may force you to make a counter bet to get back some win. But then your team scores again and the older bet is winning making the counter bet useless. Dont fall for such situations.

It's easy to do the easy way and this is not betting against your favorite team and let your friend bet for you, make it half between you and your friend so even if your team loses you still have a consolation by getting half of your friend's winnings, we should not be emotional when betting.

Personally, if it's about money, i won't let emotions get in the way. If the chances are overwhelmingly on other side, most of the time I'd bet on them. Consider it as a consolation for the team that you're rooting for getting beaten. In case my team wins, then I won't mind losing a few bucks for the exultation that i'll get for the win.

In betting market it is definitely not a match that gets the attention of bettors, because one of the clubs is almost certainly impossible to win or is not a big match.

I emotionally will definitely choose my fav club even though it is difficult to win, I still choose them and my choosen is based on loyalty and trust that there will be different things that can happen beyond the prediction.

With the hope that; they will win the game, why not?. Life is precious as money to me personally, having to place a bet on my team which I know will not win a game against the giant is a total waste of fund and energy. As a die fan of FCB in Laliga; am always cautious of the team play against my team and if the against team will take the lead, I will never be in support of my team even though am a die
hard fan.

Reason be that, they all play for their money and not mine even though am a fan of the club. They have or will not sort out my financial needs as they have their respective families to care for. They haven't heard about me and not possible to do.

Many years ago my Juventus played against Deportivo La Coruna in the UEFA CL in Spain. That was the first and only time I bet against my team. It felt really wrong watching the match and see Depotivo taking the lead and also scoring a 2nd goal but not being happy about it. I needed Deportivo to win to win my bet but I didn't want the team I support lose. The match ended 2:2, I lost my bet and my team didn't win. A double loss Grin

You want to earn profit from gambling so if I get to decide in your place I would choose the team that has a higher chance of winning. If you really support your favorite team you will bet your money without thinking of any returns. You trust them whatever team they will face.

Sample of this is Manny Pacquiao vs any of his opponent before. Many still bet on pacquiao because he has a higher chance of winning. Even the fans of his opponent bet on him.

I make it a rule not to bet against my team. I support one of the best teams in the world, so there is a little chance that any other team would be far favorites against them.

And if I must ever go against that, I'll just place the bet and go ahead and support my team, if we do win, it's lovely, though I'll lose my bet, if we lose, bad day, but I've earned a little to make me smile despite the loss. Anyway it goes it's not going to be any disaster, since I never bet with what I cannot afford to lose.

Emotions are the devil that will lead us to regrettable decisions in gambling, if we are not good in controlling our emotion, then gambling for you would be a high risk activity. The fact that majority of gamblers are losers of there's only a small chance of winning int he long run, we might end our journey very early if we get aggressive and failed to control our emotion.

Remember that we are dealing with money here, one little mistake might cost us big money, and its proven that when you are emotional, you make wrong judgement most of the time.

Inability to control your emotion will show your lack of skills and knowledge in gambling and if you keep doing the same mistakes over and over, you should get out in gambling as it will only make you bankrupt in the long run, I'm just talking of the worst case scenario here as its possible.

That's true you should have the ability to control your emotion if you gamble and you have an attachment you are likely going to lose not on money but on emotion, just go to what you feel will win you base on your analysis and observation and you will be ok.

Very emotional gambler here when it comes to my club, and I've really enjoyed the experience. I didn't bet much on my actual home team as I supported them throughout my childhood and late teens until I moved away and couldn't watch them. I don't bet on them at all now because I don't even really know enough to make educated bets.

But betting on Liverpool since the 2000s (noughties is it?)? Very good outcomes. Especially during european campaigns, we've more than done enough to dent the giants of football... and when underdogs take on giants? The unfancied Smicers, Riises, Dudeks and Carraghers fending off the mighty Kakas, Maldinis, Pirlos and Shevchenkos...

I also did really well in recent years, as Liverpool were underdogs in Europa and Champions League till last season.

I won a lot of money when we reached the finals in Europa and CL, betting on progress all the way.

The most was last season. Won 9/1 on Liverpool winning CL, and 20/1 qualifying after a 0-3 hammering at Camp Nou;)

So yeah. Bet on your team if you're an underdog but have spirit!

It's going to be depressing, so free yourself from this situation by not betting against your team, I have never done that in my sports betting when my team is facing a very strong team I just don't bet and cheer for my team unless I am comfortable betting against my favorite team.

Of course this is very sad, I have experienced this when my favorite team played, When Liverpool coach are Brendan rodgers, kenny dalglish, and some coaches. at that time liverpool did not have a good season, did not have a good game, often lost and draw, and of course It will be very risky if you remain determined to gamble for Liverpool to win. yeah its better not to gamble when you see your favorite team doesn't have a big chance of win.

I usually don’t bet whenever my favorite team is going against a team that is on a roll lately, and whenever I do, I only do that on finals matches or elimination matches where I can take the result whatever it is, be it my loss or my profit. This has happened to me many times in esports bets, particularly CS:GO and Dota 2 matches. What I usually do instead of betting is just actually playing the game while their match is on and just watch the replay later. Saves me the drama and the anxiety build-up during the match.

Maybe choosing the best team will be better to prevent losing money. We can support them and bet for them, but if you think you want to bet for your favorite team, then that will be okay too. You need to prevent the emotion come to you and destroy everything because once you lose control, then the next thing that you can get is losing the money while you will hard to recover. But sometimes, we need to take a break to hold the emotion, and we can stay calm for a while.

You are in a gambling activities so it's important to know the factors that will lead you to win, there's no room for emotions if you afraid of losing your money, the lesser the risk in terms of stats the better to place your money. Though most of the time it's really tempting to bet with your favorite club
and try your luck as most of the time the odds is higher if the opponents is tough to defeat. but if you're done with your homework and you are convince that advantage are favoring the opposing team, better to bet against your will.

This is interesting. I've been in this situation several times. And, honestly, you've put it quite well. Wink

Let me put it this way. Sometimes, gambling to me is purely money matters. But there are times when I cannot just exchange money for pride or for the intense cheering and support that I will give to my favorite team or player. There are games, for example, in which the nation's pride is at stake like when Manny Pacquiao is the one inside the ring, or when TNC (Dota 2) is battling against Team Liquid at The International 2019. Or my alma mater is playing against another university's team in a collegiate match.

In situations like this, I'd rather not bet at all or if I do, I will bet an amount I could not care if lost; rather than torn between your favorite team or player and money.

This is the feeling when your team is one of the smallest club in a league and you are emotionally invested in them. With regards to betting, it's a case to case basis I guess. If the odds are that good, putting a small bet on your team as the heavy underdog would not be that bad.

Practically speaking, if I want to gain money, I would bet for the team who's most likely to win although it's against whom I'm actually rooting. But if you really want to bet for your team, then go. But with only small amount 'cause you said it yourself already that there's only a low chance of them winning against their opponent.
I know it's really hard to bet the opponent of your team, so you can still decide whether to place a bet or not. But you can still root for your team even if you bet on the other team.

I also experienced this before on eSports scene, especially in Dota 2 but I believe this is also can be experienced in all sports especially when gambling.
My experienced with this, especially if you are a fanboy you are really confident with your team for sure, like even the odds are on favor on the enemy but you are still over confident.
The best thing to do with this emotion is, do "SMALL BET", why small bet?

RISKY
Odds are favour on the enemy, so when you bet on your team you have huge rewards.
Just show your support on your team, by betting a small amount, you can already show your support and can enjoy watching the game.

I'm not a huge fan of any team thus I don't have any favorites. When I want to place a bet, I will somehow depend on the odds or on what I see or feel about the competing teams or my gut feeling. With that, there are no emotions involved so that either win or lose, there will be no negative feelings. I mean, if I lose, I will feel sad but will get over it easily because I bet objectively rather than subjectively.

In all aspects of life, whether gambling or other things, I think it's helpful to be objective and not let our emotions take over so that we can come up on a better decision.

In this scenario, I would rather not to bet/risk my money than to bet against my will since it's difficult to bet against your favorite team for me. If ever I bet on the tougher team and they won, I'll be happy as a gambler but sad as a fan. On the other hand, if I bet on a team which is my favorite who's my favorit yet I know has less chances of winning then it has no difference in throwing your money. There's nothing wrong in not placing bet for every game you are interested in.

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

I think you shouldn't mix fun and investment money.

If you are having fun betting in favor, or even against your team, that's ok. Take some money, mark it as fun money, and spend it there in gambling. If you make more money, buy some beers.

But do not gamble trying to make money. And if you do, do not bet in the team you love. This could have disastrous consequences, imo. Gamble money that you ca afford to lose, and have fun doing so.

It is plain and simple, I just won't bet so that I can cheer for my favorite team without worrying of losing money if the stronger team win.

Already done this thing where if I'm heavily a fan a certain team and I do compare the winning chances where I do skip out on make any bets and with that
you will able to enjoy the essence or thrill while your favorite team is playing without any doubts or getting disturbed that you had make a bet with them.

Body and emotion will normally react if you do know that you do have a bet behind that tends to lose 100% in the end which will get the thrill on watching the game because you already being stressed out.

From my view, it is our inbuilt emotion to support our nation's team or our team. When it comes to gambling I don't get into any kind of emotion, because once the teams makes a winning we don't get anything beneficial. If we had a friend who supports the opponent, we can show off that we won defeating yours.

I just look for the winning chances, so that I'll get something out of it. This is how almost everyone will think, very few could go emotional for some reasons of getting much attached to the team.

Most certainly when it comes to sports, we always wanted our favorite team to win but when it comes to betting, rationality must take the lead. We must separate favoritism and gambling instinct/choices. It is kinda hard but to those who favors logical thinking than being fanatic will surely get their bet straight to what the facts they have in that game.

It is plain and simple, I just won't bet so that I can cheer for my favorite team without worrying of losing money if the stronger team win.

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)?

Supporting your favorite team helps the boost the confidence level of the team and this might help them give their best to play and win. That is why even an underdog team goes against a highly favorite team to win the match, if the game will be played in their home town, that's a different story for the favorite team because they are playing against the crowd. Imagine the distractions the crowd will give to the visitors. furthermore, if you are a die hard fan, no matter what happens to your club, you will stick with them and will not join the band wagon team.

I'd still bet for the team that's favored to win even if I detest the team that's favored and my favorite one's on the underdog side unless the odds happened to be extremely good. I've made plenty of profit from betting on underdogs when odds are extremely tilted towards one side, and that might just be the thing that moves me to bet on my personal favorite team in this instance. It's normal to be emotional with activites like these, but I typically let reality override whatever bias I have in most cases.

I believe that people should separate things:

1- like something

2- make money

They are two different things.

If you know that the team you like has no chance of winning then you should not bet on the team you like, and this is not wrong or bad. People are in the betting world to make money, and it's your precious money that you are betting on, in the club you like, the players get salaries, the coaches get salaries... they are all making money and making their living. And you must also do the same thing (make money).

It will vary because each people do have different level or ways on how they do tolerate their emotions when it comes to decision making.
Some will neglect the reality of winning chance and some will have changes in mind later on if they are really aiming to win the bet.
We arent dumb enough not to choose on whose clearly the winner when we do just base up on stat but as said anything can happen on we least expected.
On my side, decisions will vary from time to time since it will also tagged up according to my mood. Cheesy
