Topic: I Am So Done With Betting Until.... - page 5. (Read 1986 times)

There are people who do really believed that ML or Moneyline do always win which they arent really that putting up into their minds that odds or chances is always there if we do talk about upset.
Yes, we can really say that it should really be a sure win but the bad behavior of ours as a gambler is that we do really love to have that all-in bets which is never been that recommendable.
If you dont really like for yourself to get into a situation where you do make yourself fucked up then its better always consider on having that bet which is something that you could
afford to lose or something which your emotion could bare into because if not then you would really be stressing out yourself that much or the worst you would really be in rage.

This is because the sports team sometimes act like a rock paper scissor, where team 1 may be strong against team 2 but weak against team 3 and so on.  In short, each player or team has their own bane.  Just like Wilder, we know he is a great heavyweight boxer but his bane is Fury Tyson.  The same goes with Chokolatito where his bane is Srisaket Sor Rungvisai.   Aside from that as I always said, there is always a variable in any sport that greatly affect the result of the game.  So we must not take these factors for granted and think that because this team is so great, it will definitely win.  Sports sometimes don't go like that, the reason why we have the term upset win inculcated into it.


True it is natural to see draws, defeats, and even the underdog win.  If the favorite is somehow tired, or not in a condition, and the underdog is fully conditioned, there is a huge possibility that the underdog will win.  See there is always a factor, and for a bettor betting in sports betting, it is luck.


But then you can beat him by default because something unexpected happens along the way to the tournament that prevents him from coming.  See, there is always a factor that can greatly affect the outcome of a match.  Besides if you are a grandmaster, you will not be match with a newbie in a tournament.  Remember each sports are separated by Division.

I don't think there is luck here. It's just that when an outsider wins, it's always a surprise, because before that, in similar games, the favorite won many times. But the favorite is not strong enough to win 10 games out of 10 or 100 out of 100. Therefore, draws and defeats of the favorite are natural (when they happen rarely). I think if we transfer the analogy to chess, then any grandmaster has a chance to beat Carlsen in one of 10 games, but for example, I don’t have a single chance even in 1000 games. It's a matter of balance of power. When the favorite wins, it is natural, but it cannot always win, because outsiders can do something too.

Betting games especially sports betting can really surprise you because even though the game's odd are all laid off and there's already a predicted winner, tables might turn near the end of the game. It's not something someone can really tell because there's always a slightest chance of winning to those behind.

The underdog might be able to take home the title without anyone really expecting. It's a mix of luck and strategy for the team and a matter of possessing the right knowledge and odds favor for you. It will depend on how you will assess and analyze their record and the game itself and how the team will lift themselves to make it to their goal.

People should be careful with this world cup group stage, club prediction is far better for me, we thought some stronger countries teams would win but they lost, see Japan that won Germany lost to Costa Rica that was flawlessly won by Spain. Everyone would think Belgium would win too, but won 2 by Moroccan players without no goal from Belgium at all. But as for betting, people should bet in a way they should alo be expecting losses.

The distance between Belgium and Morocco is something that can't be measured. This match is even close to predictable.

That's why I don't blame others if they put money into Belgium that end up losing horribly.

With the series of upsets that happened since Day 1, bettors can't now rely on the dominance of these considered favorite countries as underdogs before now improved. However, these upsets might give these favorites to now become more serious and expect that they will bounce back next event.

I was to mention it, this World Cup is full of surprises. Morocco beating Belgium that too without a goal from Belgium.

Whether it is sports betting or casino games, if we're lucky we'll be able to make a win. Just think of going with the underdog and making a win. We enjoy it, same as that when the much expected result goes against our selection it is time to move on and take a break than thinking of recovering the losses.

And guess what, there might be another bettor who experienced the same with OP.

There's another upsetting game that shocks the whole world and that is Morocco beating Belgium.

This year's World Cup is really full of surprising upsets. Should be a good reference on our next betting journey in the next World Cup.

This is one thing about gambling I know it's very painful because after putting all mind and energy thinking it would go according to predicted and in return turns to be a total lose is really something that is so disheartening and if time is not taken it might leads to frustration. I guess with such assurance most bettor may likely go into loan to bet and win big which is not too pleasing because whenever it doesn't go as planned then something unbelievable might happen to the user.

You have to be sure that there is no 100% exact accuracy to predict in sports betting so make sure we gamble as much as we can because of the risk of losing funds after you place funds for bets. So many people lost their funds from Argentina's defeat in the early rounds of the world cup match, so if the gambler remains consistent with his fan country's team then he will be optimistic about supporting Argentina so that he wins bets in the second session of the Argentina match.

True I also learned this kind of lesson the hard way.  That was when we are playing card and I was confident that I am very lucky that time since I am winning, then in one of the gameplay of the session, I bet half of my winning thinking that since I am lucky probably I will also win that time.  But the result is different from what I am expecting.  So in an instant, my bankroll went half considering I accumulated the money from many hours of winning.


True people quit when they win big or lost big.  But one thing I observed is that these people keep on coming back to gambling, either to try their luck again or chase losses.  I think they just paused for a while to reflect on how things have gone wrong or accumulate funds to have a longer playing session.


True we must only gamble we can afford to lose to avoid the scenario OP has.  Gambling is called gambling for a reason and there is no 100% sure win if we wagered our money.  I hope @OP will accept things that happen and move on.  And I also wish you all the luck @OP if you ever decided to come back to betting again.  I hope you can recover your losses with an interest to make up for all the frustration you experienced. 

I agree to this, do not spend too much if you are not ready for the outcomes, everyone should know that it is not always winning in gambling. Sports Betting is not my thing because of these sudden changes in their play. Sometimes people only bet where the odds are larger we should learn to make a research of course and also again do not spend too much because if we do we will be disappoint too much too.

Yes, losses are really part of the journey when it comes to gambling because your chances are high that will mostly experience more losses than what you've win throughout the process and I think that is natural. Casinos and gambling platforms won't be around and be standing tall if they aren't getting good profits out of the bettors expense. It's just a matter of perspective on how you will look at your gambling activities but if you will quit, make sure that you will do it for good.

Although what the OP experienced is not that new because apart from him, I'm sure that there's a lot of bettors who also lost their bets that day because an unbelievable thing happened where the Saudi Arabia defeated Argentina. The OP's mistake is he poured all of his winnings in that specific bet because he thought that his chance was guaranteed, the OP mistakenly forgot that there's no such thing as guaranteed wins in the world of gambling.

By the way, I heard that the players received a brand new Rolls Royce as a gift because they managed to defeat the Argentina.

Loses do happen in gambling and one should accept it. No gambler will win each and every game and this is a fact. But the problem is how much we allocate funds to each game. If we are betting, how much funds should be spent in each match?
If there is a plan, then i am sure we will not face the situation where we lose money. Going all in means that we are not disciplined in gambling, or we are too much greedy. Gambling will never let you win if we play with emotions. If we only follow the money management, i am sure we can make good money out of betting and gambling.

I've never considered stopping betting or halting any of gambling activities on small bets so most probably the OP decided to bet a large sum of money since he went all-in on the game. It is always the big bets that hurt a lot as those are mostly something that we cannot afford to lose or even if we do so, it will still affect us much harder. Also, I don't think that the OP was not in the right state of mind but rather he was too confident of the match thinking that it was a sure win. Unfortunately, he did not play safe and lost, that's all.

I've felt the same thing when I thought of a strategy for playing dice by betting larger amounts on a low multiplier thinking that I'll be able to get a profit from it however after only a few bets, I lost.

Small amount or big, maybe that money is the amount he cannot afford to lose that is why he is so disappointed in losing and decided to stop betting altogether. That is a good decision because he should not be betting if he is not in the right state of mind. Maybe someday he will come back and will share something successful next time.


This is a good advice. Alas, not every gamble is able to follow it though. Sometimes, we are tempted to bet even the money that we really needed because we have a very good odd or the team is almost unbeatable. But like you said, nothing is 100% sure in gambling. Sometimes, even the most favorite loses due to turn of events in the game. Sometimes the underdogs get some lucky breaks that put them the win. It is just unpredictable sometimes. SO, gamblers much strictly follow this advice.

Actually ever gamblers will face the situation as like you did. Even I had loss some money in gambling last week, but the hidden fact is we can get the money. Where we had loss the funds, because losing funds is like devil and deep sea. We had a good way of approaching towards gambling will make us to regain the money we lost. You should build the new strategy on certain game for a week. Because the strategy of gambling will be changed often. The experience gamblers will choose the big risks in the gambling. As like you, I had loss some money from the gambling in some games. But I will create a strategy to gain all loss in two to three games. Every time my strategy had make me regain the funds back and making to add some more profit from it.

This is the world of gambling that you have entered Sir, maybe you know at least the consequences if we lose here, right? As far as I can see, many people favored Argentina against Saudi, which means that many of you who bet did not expect that your chosen country would lose.

By the way Sir, you mentioned that you quit after that experience, this currently happening, are there other things you are planning to do after your bitter loss in your last gambling? I'm just asking.

You must have bet/staked a lot of money for you to be this upset and angry, but that is the drawback of gambling. I must admit, I was shocked by the result of Argentina vs. Saudi Arabia. Many bettors had high hopes and faith that Argentina would finish that game admirably despite the short odds, but the bookmakers said not today. However, it doesn't change my stand for Argentina, Keep trying as you never know the day of celebration, but bet responsibly.

Gamble what you can afford to lose. There was no 100% winning rate in gambling, whether in casinos or sports betting. As always, I am saying this, no matter how weak the team is, if they can play, then they still have a percentage to win a game. I am not really fun with football, but that match made a noise again on social media and the game I played (they had an event to bet on a specific team and win a reward). You just need to rest and stay away first from gambling so that you can move on from your loss, so next time when you are good, try to only bet the money that is okay with you if you lost that game so it won't hurt you that much.
