I think I am one of the unluckiest gambler/bettor out here, today is one of my worst days again and I think I should quit betting.

I went all in on Argentina thinking their match against Saudi Arabia would be an easy win for them, and the fact that the odds were so far away against Saudi Arabia winning while it was in huge favor of Argentina caused me to be so sure that Argentina was going to win the match, and then, I went all in, hoping to make some big wins just like yesterday, but now, everything is gone, in just a twinkle of an eye...
Argentina is a big disappointment, It's still hard to believe, I quit betting until I am able to forget this experience entirely.

Oh, well, I think everyone thinks exactly the same as you do with the next loss, imagine how many millions of people who bet on Argentina experienced similar experiences, but there are also those who bet on Saudi Arabia or, for example, Iran in the match with Wales. You just need to calm down and not blame yourself for what happened and try to just stay in the role of a fan, well, or do something else.

I'm sorry for your loss, that's part of gambling. It happens to everyone when you are all confident about your bet and betting all-in. Sometimes it takes a big loss for us to realize to stop gambling, I am sure you'll recover from it soon, and I would take that you had a huge bet. Even with good odds your favored team can still lose, there are cases the underdogs win which could really be disappointing for those who are really expecting that their favored team has an advantage.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

I'm sure you're aware that every gambler that showcases his wins, on the net, in the club house, anyway else -- always keep their loses as a secret?
The thing is; nobody talks about their loses so for that reason, you shouldn't feel other gamblers don't lose too, as much as you do.
It's part of the rules of the game; when you get a big win, always expect a big loss too, it's that simple. I'd advise that you look out for the things/decisions you made wrongly, -- that made you loss, just so you won't do the repeat the same, next time. I believe there is a way to curtail losses, but you can't avoid them totally though so, just watch out for that.

Upsets happen in most sporting events and even in the esports, they do happen. I've experienced it before when I bet for the favorite team and didn't consider the odds for the underdog team.

And for FIFA, fans and bettors it is no brainer to bet on Argentina if the opponent is Saudi Arabia. But well, what happen has happened and that's gambling on our end that things can be sometimes upsetting if the unexpected thing occurs.

Well that's what i mean to prefer betting against the odds always better ... the hurt feeling when you know that you are losing the bet on a 1.1xx even worst below that odds , it hurts ... really hurts i knew it especially if you do it in full confidence and allin! The trauma will be there for sure.

But when you do the opposite ... betting on the underdogs in hope to get 3x or even 8x return ... you do it in nothing to lose style and when you won it , the feeling way much better than anything, satisfying.

It really hurts and it's all about the feeling that you're confident and at the same time the odds that you've trusted that much.

As you do the opposite, it's not also that guaranteed at all because those odds are most of the times correct if it's on the winning side. As I've said, upsets do happen and when they do, it's hell of an upset.

Yeah, moments like that remind us all that anything can happen in sports betting just like in the casino and betting big amounts is very risky. We all knew Argentina would win this match, but for reasons beyond our control, the outcome was staggering for all of us. I hope that OP is able to cope with this loss.

People only just like to fool themselves with sport betting, if they play it very often will be when they will know that it is gambling and it is nothing more or less than casinos, but if you discipline yourself and play it less often with good analysis, it is different from casinos because more profit is possible. Argentina lost, I also played the match and I lost, but I had won than lost while betting with sport.

That is good that you have won more than you lost in sport betting but that is also a very difficult thing to do no matter how good your analysis is there will be times when it will destroy your balance.We have a very clear example with this Argentinian game which made everyone of us losing money,that game did not need a thorough analysis because team quality was much in favor of Argentina compared to Saudi Arabia yet Argentina lost.This shows us that it is luck that decides very much also in sport betting.

We should never put too much hope in gambling. I'm betting that the amount he bet was too big for his budget, firstly because of the disappointment he had that led him to give it up for a season and secondly because when you are sure of a bet, you tend to bet more heavily. The fact is that if he had bet 5 dollars, like someone who bets a beer with a friend on the result of the match, he would not have been so disappointed.

The best thing he can do now is to stick to what he said, and not bet for a while.

I understand your standpoint and I am hoping for your holistic recovery soon. Losses like this is a lot to take and will take a while to sink in. For now, distract yourself from things that reminds you of the loss and reinvest your time to something else that would be beneficial to you, like picking up a new hobby, or meeting friends and family that you may have grown apart with over the years. I also believe that most gamblers do not stop gambling even after tanking a big loss, so if you find yourself gambling again, this time create a foolproof plan that could help you mitigate your losses as much as possible.

If he didn't think about staying away from gambling for a while, he could be stuck again in his previous state and this time, he might suffer an even bigger loss than before. Yes, I agree with the advice you gave him because doing something else can distract us from what we already got. But to stop gambling is not as easy as it is said because the temptation to gamble will be stronger than the desire to stop it. And only learning to exercise strong self-restraint can help us stop gambling. And always be patient to continue learning to refrain from gambling so that we can control ourselves.

Excel is fun

Things like these happen all the time. One minute you're sure that the one you bet is the one that's going to win due to the odds and H2H then all of a sudden, you will be surprised that the underdog gets the upper hand on their match. IMO odds aren't everything that you have to consider when taking a bet. If 2 teams haven't fought against each other in a long time and it's their first time playing together again, chances are the ones generally considered to be an underdog against any other teams might not be the case when they are against this particular team.

That's one way to build up your gambling anxiety, but you can still take some W's you just have to do a lot more research.

Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅

Gambling isn't meant to be cheap and too simple though... Even the prediction process is hard and needs extra carefulness and focus. I personally believe that this whole gaming ordeal is just all about being lucky; I don't think there's anything like EXPERIENCE, that could help you predict which club to loose or win, as the case might be.
I've seen several times and those dudes; the call themselves "bet lord" -- will predict games for others and refuse to bet 'em.... They'll be like 'pay for the game first before getting 'em' ....like WTF am I gonna pay for something you're not even sure of?
Sorry for your loss dude... That's what you get during play seasons like this.

Going all in for Argentina is a common thing, because they're one among the team predicted to be the winner of the tournament. 99% believed Argentina to win the match, but the reality varied at the end. There is nothing wrong with our prediction. It is time to move on than just worrying about the loss.

More matches gonna end with unexpected results. This season of FIFA is gonna be the days for the underdog. Japan winning against Germany is another big event. Most expected match of Brazil against Serbia have ended as predicted. 2-0 win.

you don't have to think too hard about this because I'm sure the majority of the bettors all chose Argentina but lost, me too. apart from Argentina, I was also annoyed by the final results of Germany vs japan and Poland vs Mexico.
So far there are only 3 teams that have scored more than 3 goals, that is England, France, and Spain - it seems that one of them will win the world cup this time.

Heads up, bro. I understand your feeling since even upset is usual to happen, the match between Argentina and Saudi Arabia is something really unexpected as even looking at all sides, Argentina has everything to win that match. Saudi Arabia, despite football/soccer being the most popular sport in their country, doesn't even have a good history playing at the FIFA World Cup that's why they are always the heavy underdog in the majority of their match here.

If you want to chase your losses on that match, it's your decision.

It's not totally wrong to chase losses as long as you clearly understand what you are doing. Maybe you just decided to quit betting because of the frustration but if you really want to push on that and the same feeling still emerges after you moved on to that loss, then good for you.

You would really be able to cope up easily if you dont treat gambling as some sort of living.Things do becomes shit and since we are dealing with something unpredictable then odds or chances for different outcomes

could really happen this is why its always been suggested that you do make yourself prepared for these situations so that you wont really be having that regret and blaming out yourself on the bottom.

Lots had already anticipated that this is a one sided game where people do make full bets or all in for Argentina which even myself do see the same thing.
We could make out comparison but things do happen unexpectedly.

If you are not addicted to gambling you can quit betting but if you addicted forget about quitting it,you can only say it but hard to do. Just know the chance of winning in gambling is 50 to 50 no matter how the odd small like. And again don't always use odd to pick games whenever you want to bet, always do your own research by checking the statistics and the current performance the team at that particular time.

This is something I must admit that I am guilty of, and that is using odd at times to pick games, I do this mostly when I am confused on which team to pick, but you would also agree with me that, if a gambler did their own research on this Argentina vs Saudi Arabia match for example, it clear that the gambler will pick Argentina to win the match, but then, look what happened ? this shows that even research, we can still be wrong at times, and this is where luck comes in.

And for the records, am not an addict gambler, I've not gambled or placed any bet since I created this thread, and I don't have any plan of gambling or placing any bet anytime soon, until I recover from this loss which I must admit have affected my business significantly.

Every gambler out there should learn from this and never risk more than they can afford to loose no matter how sure the game looks, it my biggest mistake so far..

Expect the unexpected is a thumb rule in sports, it maybe fixing or just happened as coincidence which is the reason why we should not be relied too much into the favorites in sport betting.

I don't think this was match fixing because Argentina didn't play like a team that wanted to lose that game. They played very well and if it was any other day they would had won that game but it wasn't just their day as all their open play goals got cancelled for offside. There was even a goal that was meant to stand as the player been used to determine the offside wasn't meant to be used since there was another playing keeping the Argentina player on side.
The Saudi Arabia team also tried their best as their defense was quality keeping Messi out of possession and not allowing him time on the ball to carryout match winning passes as he usually does.

They lost it means they are still not good enough in this match. Talking about Offside is clearly something that deserves to be discussed, especially when their 3 goals were annulled in this case. but indeed what i see is the opposite they know the saudi arabia players apply this scheme but they never even see anything else even they are always hit by this trap again and again even 10 times they are hit by the same trap.

On the other hand, I am quite aware that there will still be some surprises, and one of them is this match, which made most people who bet have to lose their bets.

So many gamblers betting on the world cup matches should calm down and study the games played by a country before placing your bet on them because I see this world cup as a game that is unpredictable since the football big countries are losing to the small countries which is quite shocking.

Argentina and Germany has made gamblers to loss their money due to betting for them.
OP you should go for a break in gambling as you said so that this will make you come to conclusion if you will be gambling again or not. Don't use money made for other important purpose to gamble instead gamble with the money that you can afford to loss
