Many times, I do this whenever I'm in the mood and had a small amount to bet and doesn't care whether it will win or lose. I just want to feel the thrill.

And I believe that a human instinct mate?that we always go against the majority or we go for the minority’s to have thrill and to help boost their ego
Just like what you’ve said that don’t care if win or loose?of course we tend to in but we are also ready to lose

In sports betting this usually happens. Sometimes I checked first the team and had quick research before having a bet. Picking odds that against the majority of high pickers for me it's like having a low chance of winning. But sometimes we need to stand our decision in having our own odds based on our research on the team that we pick.

I also do a quick research sometimes before placing a bet. Though I see and hear analysts say that this team will win, and even those people around me bet on such, there's something inside me that says not to bet on the majority. I don't know but maybe it's just my attitude not to go with the flow always.

If we feel that the team we pick has a great potential to win even it has against the majority, then, go on.

Just follow your gut, right? Who knows, it might be the one that'll lead you to the jackpot. Grin

Sport betting is strange when it wants to be, it never a sure fact the impossibility can turn possible.
When booking a bet many bets on what the majority had placed before hand.
What am I saying betting site releases games for betting and gives an option where you see what others has selected and very often it's the one with the lower odd that people place bet on.

Last week Saturday was a Turing point for me as I refused to bet with majority(31-8-2019) and placed a draw on the match between osasuna and FC Barcelona. Most people would see it as an unwise decision but that's soccer the foolish thing can turn out to be wise.

I don't do sports betting. At least I used to. But I don't see anything foolish over here. What is wrong with placing a bet on something with high payout? I used to place such weird bets because it is actually fun and more thrilling to do so. Place a bet on a team that has high chance of losing but in the end they somehow manages to win. Just look how exciting that is. And the payout is also usually extremely high in such cases. I have done it numerous time, after all betting is all about taking risks.

Its just really a matter of risk though because majority wont go to those selections without any basis.Most of the times this would vary on their own guts and intuition.
Some would depend on their own way of entertaining or thrilling out theirselves on having this kind of betting habit where to put up money on least favorite.
We have seen lots of circumstances that these hits do really happen.I do even regret when theres a time that my selections being altered nor being changed because of doubts
and eventually able to hit.

I usually picks the odds before the game starts and I equally bet both at the proportional profitable odds. When the game changes towards the unexpected team, that time we need to choose the other team also with odds which can equalize the profit ratio st least to avoid the heavy loss with it.
Always i wish to bet on cricket and tennis games which is very much easy to predict the winning side.

I follow different strategy because when you don't go with the majority you get bigger odds and as a result bigger profits. It's like that sportsbookers give less odds to the majority.

Its true that we can make better odds but we also need to analyse about the winner and the bet based on it,simply going against the majority will not work multiple times.

If you're a risk-taker, you're always going against the majority, because you know that the stakes are high and although there is a little chance to win, you can win big time if there is an upset, upsets seldom happen but when it happens it's a huge reward for every loss that you've gone in the past.

That will help you if you know more info about the match and they don't know what you know, so you will have a chance to win. But it is hard to against the majority if they know who will be the winner and especially if they can play with the result. I think risk-taker or not, you should be careful if you want to against them because that will not be good if you don't know the more signs.

Hesitance would really be there because you do know in mind that majority do knows on where to bet and if you do make oppositions then
it would really be a risky one yet you know which one is favored to win.I agree that there were really come circumstances that you will really bet into the
other side sometimes intuition do pushes you on or simply you do believe on what you do analyze on such fight or game.

I don't believe there's any reason to hesitate when one is sure of your option. I understand it can be quite tensing and confusing knowing that majority are for one point but before you can choose to stand against the crowd, you should have been very good at analyzing and predicting a game.

The few times I stood against the crowns, it favored me because most times I see based on why is present. I analyses my games both based on past and present results and I am always very glad when it turns out positive because I stand to gain respect in the eyes of my fellow bettors and that gives me a great self-gambling confidence and additionally, I do not have a lot of people to share with me.

Sometimes it works if the chance is comparable so you could choose the minority as the bet. The odds will be the same in both teams, and that will depend on how luck each team can get in the match. If the situations are like that, I think it will better if we don't bet anything and we could only watch the match because we don't know how good the chance for every team. But you could still choose your team if you are sure that they can win.

Betting against the favorite is always worth it.
Matches can go not normal many times. Sportmakers provide low odds for the favorites in order to make you believe that it is an easy bet to win. Thus the majority goes with that. You have to go the other way if you want to make some profit.

For me, most of my bets in esports/sports betting is against to majority, especially when it comes to underdogs vs. to the great teams on the group-stage. I usually bet on the underdogs because I like the odds and also, I'm not that kind of gambler that bet too much money. I just want to enjoy watching the supports. But when it comes to my favorite teams vs. to undercards, I’m admittedly bet to my favorite team.

This is why some people keep betting against the majority, the odds can be so good that it is very tempting to go against the majority even if you know that there is very little chance that you are going to win your bet, but when a small bet of just 10 dollars can win you hundreds of dollars I do not see anything wrong with going against the majority in those cases, you are making a very low bet and you are not really losing a huge amount of money if you lose.

The few times I made a sports bet I just played safe and chose the expected winner. People who are more experienced with sports betting can get away with betting against the majority since they likely already developed a good gut instinct when reviewing match ups.

If you do get lucky it is indeed very rewarding since there are fewer bettors to split the prize.

Only those with very good experience can make a decision to stand against the crowd otherwise those who choose to be greedy and stand a chance of risking their hard earned money.

I think sometimes some gamblers want to avoid sharing money with other gamblers especially when they both agreed on the same course, so they prefer to do it alone so they won't be entitled to sharing with anyone at the end of the game but I call this greed because it's pays more to play on the safe side and get little than to take risk of losing it all?? I understand myself quiet alright that am not very good at gambling so in most cases I stay with the majority and I honestly have no regrets doing this.

So what is your percentage of winning or losing when you go against the majority ? I tried it few time but failed most of the times. The Majority of the bets are placed on the ones gamblers think will win based upon the past performances, and it is very rare the upsets happen and the less favorite team wins.
Unless you are the one who like to take the risks, it is better to stick with the decision of the majorities.

I think he lost a lot betting on that.

I did try that and most of the time I lost.

I did win and that really satisfied me but I did not do that again. Taking higher risk really give you higher rewards gives higher thrill and excitement but that is still high risk and you will usually lose because of that.

Right, most of the time when I do this kind of strategy of going against the majority, I lose.

I have this on my mind with e-sports because when I'm betting before on small tournaments and the best teams are playing, sometimes they lose too to unknown teams so I have that courage to do that but most of my bets lose but sometimes there's also a win.

Me, I don't follow my instinct when I bet on a game where my favorite team is playing, I just observed that I lose most of the time if I'm too confident with my team, so I rather stay away or just bet a very small amount that I cannot consider as a regular bet.

Going against the favorites does not mean going against the public, because not all the time, the team or fighter than they like will always be the favorites.
Just like the match that I bet and won last year, it's Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov where I believe Conor is the crowd favorite but in the betting sites, it's Khabib who is the favorite.
