Of course we will be very disappointed when we bet on our favorite team and lose.
From my personal experience, the most painful thing is losing a bet when betting on the victory of our favorite team against a relatively weaker team.
Instead of winning, they conceded in the early minutes and in the end the match ended in a draw or with the opposing team winning.
And usually there is drama behind the defeat or draw, such as a red card, conceding a goal in the last minute, or even a missed penalty.
When that happens, sometimes I feel like the unluckiest person in the world at that time.
I laughed while reading this comment, because I don't think that any one would want to bet on his favorite team to lose, the reasons why the team is his favorite team is because of their performance, and truth be told that one would not keep any team that is not performing well as his favorite team. Just think about what am saying, if you know that this team is not performing well you can't keep them as one of your favorites, even if the most experienced player is among the team, 1 person (1 player) can not hold the whole positions on the field when the game is being played. Although the experience player will try his best but he can not carry the whole cross alone. And again their are teams that kills the ability of an experienced player, when the other 10 players are not doing well (like assist) you won't be able to perform well. And some clubs that knows your worth will find away to take you in to their own.
I don't know why I have always not been siding the ideas of betting on your favorite team.

Some people here will have some huge trouble detaching from a lot of things.

I may support one team due to their abilities or personalities, but I will never invest too much emotion in them as I know they will not do the same to me. Also, losing a bet on a team I support is normal. We all lose, be it betting for your favorites or not. You will simply get over it, and there's no use glossing over the fact since you will eventually forget the loss, move on, and bet again.

People should really learn to give little to no emotional connection with trivial things such as this in order for them to live be more rational or logical on their decisions. I'm not saying that it's bad, but it affects things a lot.

It is totally normal that your mood changes when something you're interested in goes wrong. Especially when it comes to sport, some people take sport to the heart and go super fanning on them becoming stans. I have a friend who is a big fan of Bayern Munich for example, when this team loses he spends the whole week whining about it his mood changes so bad that he even makes his surroundings wish for this team to win just for him to not ruin their mood lol.

When it comes to putting a bet on a team you love, when this team loses the pain is doubled because not only your team lost but you also lost money.
Good thing is that this feeling of sadness is temporary and doesn't last forever. Thar is why we shouldn't really take sports this seriously because it's not a matted of life and death.

It is expected that one feel a little bad about losses of any kind or when things do not go as we had expected. Sports being an engaging and emotion thing have a way of bringing this feeling of sadness out. But the good thing is that the feeling is just momentary and disappears as fast as they arrive. The only people who allow this feelings to stay longer than it should are the fanatics. Whenever you find yourself feeling so angry and depress over the loss of your favorite team, so much that it stays longer and make you display some funny characters, it is a sign that you are turning into a fanatics which is not in consonance with the requirements of the sports. Even though you place bet on the team of not, with risk management in place, the feeling of loss should just be within a very short interval of time.
This makes me remember when I was at the University, a professor, a Chilean one, he gave me Mathematics II, he said that when the country's team lost in soccer, the majority of students at the university lowered their performance, and that was only for him. football, which did not refer to sports betting or anything like that, just because the team lost, the sadness was so much that the students' spirits were down for everything, and that was reflected in the grades, then if that happened at that level , where it is a higher level of study, and the education was first class, so when we lose in a casino, it is our economy that suffers, it is obvious that we feel sadness, it is something that cannot be dissuaded so easily, it is a feeling based on an emotion, but due to the experience one has in casinos, that sadness about losing is becoming something normal in a casino, since losing and winning are things that are willing to happen.

In this sense, everything is about overcoming things, learning to cope with them and once again it is demonstrated that experience is one of the best lessons that we as humans can have.

Such feeling is just normal. We are only humans and so such feeling of despair will always be there if we lose the bet especially if it is our favourite team to begin with. But do remember, life goes on after the game. So don't take it too much, maybe the next game is yours. Also, it won't be the first time that you will lose. As long as you are betting, the chance of losing is always around the corner.

Isn't it just a normal reaction that when our favorite team loses a match, we will be saddened? Especially if we placed a bet on them, which will add more sadness since our money was put at risk supporting them and later gone too. Part of the game and no choice but to move on.

It's just fine to feel saddened after a loss regardless if we placed a bet or not since that's a normal reaction of our emotion. But we need to move on and try to get back on track on our next bet. There's no 100% smooth road to winning every bet. Consistent wins are hard to achieve but what matters is, that winning is more often to happen than losing.

That is exactly my take on this. There's nothing wrong to feel being broken-hearted. But as I said, don't linger on that pain. Your head will go crazy if you will go back again and again on that unhappy moment of yours. Think positive and move forward.

Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?

because I am part of the fans, feeling sad and disappointed because your favorite team lost is normal. even losing a bet also gives feelings of sadness and disappointment. but that won't make me continue to regret the bet I made.
There is a special pride when you support your favorite team. Even if you lose, you will still appreciate the team's game as a fan. It will be different if you are competing and you are betting on a team that you do not support as a fan.
I guess that’s how a fan should be, that you still manage to appreciate their efforts and hardwork even if they lose in the end. But the feeling of getting sad and depress will always be there, most especially if you are betting a huge amount. But since losing is part of gambling, and its outcome will always be unpredictable, so you have to control your emotions, and just accept that losing is inevitable when betting.

However, it’s not all the time that you will consistently lose from your bets as there are times somehow that you still manage to win and gain profits. So it’s like gambling is a mixed emotions, sometimes you lose and feel so down, while at some point you also win and enjoy your profits.

Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?
From my own end, the problem isn't about my favorite team losing the match or myself losing the bet, instead its about the level of bad mouthing and mockery I'll receive from my friends who are fans of opposing clubs. They will really deal with me vocally and never let me have peace for the day. Some will even go to the extent of uploading my picture on their status claiming that I'm going through a lot RN. Lol.
Good thing is that my time to revenge always come and I return the favor upon  match loss  of their own respective teams.

For the record, I don't bet on my favorite team (Chelsea). It makes me sad when they lose, talk less of having a stake on them, the pain is doubled. I stake on other matches, and even when they're losing and my money draining, the fun I get from cajoling my guys creates a collateral for my lost funds.

That is very true. It doesn't hurt very much if we lose a bet where our favorite team is playing a match and loses it.
We appreciate the efforts put in by the team and let go our losses for the match.
But that is not the case if we are randomly betting on any match or any game.
The fact that we lost the bet and the money hurts more in such case.
We are betting for the fun, and this is something that you should really be having in mind and not really that too pushy when it comes on making money because this would certainly be that making you that desperate
and on the time that you lost then this would really be bringing out that huge disappointment and this is something that would really be that common for most gamblers.
No one likes on losing on which its really that just that common. It is really just that you wont really be that making  yourself that too impulsive if you are really just that accepting it easily
and move on whenever you do experience loses.

Gambling should really be that for fun and you shouldn't really be that making yourself that too desperate or really that anticipating for sure win because we know that this isnt something
possible in gambling and you wouldnt really be able to know on when you would really be lucky. Dont push yourself too much on which it comes into a point that you
are already spending up tons or spending the money which arent supposed to be spend up.

But no matter what we say that gambling should be just for fun, we cannot avoid expecting to earn money from it, especially since there is money involved in it, so the mindset of the rest of us is that you will earn money when you play this, and when you lose, you will be severely disappointed. Because there are people who at first thought gambling was just for fun, but when they experienced winnings, their views about it changed.

Is it hard to stay positive when your team is losing?
I think it is not only hard but infact it is too much hard to be positive because when your team loses a match, it always hurts to be betting on that team.

Also, you can see when your team wins then you feel better and when your team loses then it hurts to most and when it hurts too much when you supported them from the start then it will more hurt even more.
In simple words, it is not easy to be positive but it is a challenge to be positive with your team and always support them at any time when their performance is good or bad.

To hard if we really aim to win badly since it might be so hard for us to watch our team losing since we can also think about the money we are about to lose.

For sure we feel that especially if the money we spend is the last money we have and for sure pure frustrations will be earned after the match end. Its same with out team winning same with our team winning since we feel satisfied and so happy with the result.

Its not really to be positive in this situation so what we can do with this is at least we enjoy the game since this might give us fulfilment after seeing the result.

Are you sad that your team lost or are you actually sad you lost money? I hate losing when I make a bet, but no reason to get upset. You can bet again on the next game assuming you have the funds to make a bet. I think most people are going to be sad on losing the money more than their team losing.
I get equally sad for both the loss of my money and that of my favourite team am fond of, and as a fan it's quite easy to feel the two sides of the loss equally if you gamble responsibly by betting with money that you for anytime can afford to lose.

People mostly feel very sad about their the loss of their money for two reasons maybe, the money they spend on the betting for the team was much for them or it's either they don't really have any feeling of attachment to their supposed favourite team. Perhaps there is a stage in the competition that your favourite team has strived to get to, let say semi-final or finals stage and suddenly your team lost the game, as a fan somehow you will be touched by their loss even if you don't want to.

That sinking feeling, the dawning realization of defeat, is a defining aspect of sports betting.  Imagine a rollercoaster reaching its peak, only to plummet unexpectedly.

But this very risk is what amplifies the joy of victory.  Wins in sports betting are sweeter because they're earned through calculated risk, adding an "extra layer of adrenaline" to the equation.  It's like conquering a challenging climb, the reward even more satisfying because of the effort involved.

However, the emotional toll of a lost bet goes beyond mere disappointment.  You highlight the sting of personal connection, especially during rivalry games.  Losses feel like a betrayal by your team, a violation of that deep-seated loyalty.  It's a manifestation of our desire for control, even in the face of the

Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?

It is part of every sport where a team loses and a team wins the match. A team is happy and a team is sad, not only in cricket but in other sports too like basketball, volleyball and the last best sport Football.

Also, a match isn't considered a loss but if that match is a final, semi final or such a big match for example between two rivalry teams then it will be like this, but at the same time for us, even if the match isn't important in the context of the series but we place the bet and lose it, it's our lost booked and there are no second thoughts about it.

When your team wins you have happiness. Everything goes wrong including your mood and emotions if the team on which we place the bet loses the match unexpectedly.
I think this kind of response is a natural thing, especially if you are a fan who is quite panatic about a team that competes, sad disappointment is definitely there and will be quite upset, plus we put a bet on our favorite team, it's hypocritical to say it's not sad, especially if you get ridiculed by friends who choose the opposite team from our team, it will be much more upset because the ridicule will be there for one week. LOL

Yes, the last two things are different in context, and yes sometimes apathy and don't care even if you lose, yes if the feeling of upset and regret is definitely in my opinion, even though the feeling is as small as in our hearts, but this goes back to the original purpose of betting, if only to make money in my opinion it will be a bigger feeling that will be received by the gambler.

When my favorite team loses, I of course experience negative emotions, although I convince myself that, unlike me, everyone there is a millionaire and everything is fine with them anyway
When I lose a bet, I practically don’t feel any emotions at all because, firstly, the player is initially ready for such an outcome, and secondly, I prefer high odds, so I lose a bet much more often than vice versa. Losing is the norm. The most important thing is the overall balance, and it is important at a distance of a couple of hundred bets and there is no room for emotions (the distance is too long).

I won't be sad because my favourite team lost the match but I will be sad because I lost my money and it's okay since winning and losing is part of being a gambler just like for a team and for the record you don't have the extra pressure called important match, every match you bet is important but for the team some matches they might take it easy and not going with their full power unless every match they play is some form of knockout.

Do you feel sad when your favorite team loses a match and the bet (if you had placed a bet on that match)?

Well yes, and I think we do all feel the same. Reason behind this, is our expectations. We favor a team because we admire them for a reason; could be a player/s or nationality, and the likes. Now, with betting, it is not only because our expectations aren't met whenever we are losing, but also the idea of losing money, affects us. No one wants to lose in the first place, in any field of interest. Losing is indeed part of the game but it's just hard to accept it instantly given that we hope for winning and also we are losing money literally and no one wants that. Emotions of regrets and sadness are normal simply because we're humans.
When the team that I truly support lose a big game I would feel down or sad for some time even if I don't have a bet on it.
But of course losing a bet and seeing your favorite team lose their important match would surely put everyone feeling bad about it.
No one wants to see their team lose on big events.
Losing a favorite team's match will certainly make us feel bad, but it will be very sad when betting on our favorite team and losing the bet will certainly become the object of ridicule from our closest friends and this will make us feel bad and will be worse. Well, when we bet on our favorite team, we first see whether the opponent we are facing is capable of winning or not, and if we are not sure we can win the bet, it is better to just watch the match and not bet on our favorite team.
Indeed, there are times I am betting gainst my favorite team especially if it is on a dosadvantage. I am a fan but I'd choose to be practical. I remember when I counter bet because two of the star players are off on the whole match. Being a fan means I also know how they play without those two. Being a fan doesn't mean favoring the team of your choice at all time, especially in gambling wherein money is involved.
