Do you have a sports that you keep betting on even though you don’t watch this sports live or you don’t know the full specifications of this game?

I believe this is the literal definition of “gamble what you can afford to lose”.  Grin
Yes I have a sports like that and that sports is formula 1. I honestly have no idea what the reason game is all about. And I always bit on Louis Hamilton's. I rarely watch them race or even participate but I love to bet on them before really being that I just like it. I am going to take my time to start learning about this sports. My second option will be to bet on Verstappen or Alonso.

Everytime I have spared funds after placing a bet on my preferred match, those remaining funds are risks on a football match parlay.

Mostly on football games that I don't even know or am familiar with, and my parlay is composed of several underdog odds and draw odds. Just a random pick as personally, I don't watch football games as it's not hyped here in our country. Til now, I haven't managed yet to hit my parlay bets as I understand that it's hard to win it all. Sometimes out of 6 bets, only 3-4 were being predicted correctly and no improvement til now. Cheesy Not serious about that so it's fine.

Actually we do have on the same behavior when it comes to this manner on which on the time that i have already that have some spare money after betting on the preferred match then i do really look for something
which it could get in line or together with my current betting choices. Yes, its not something that worth because people would really be saying, why not to bet it all on that preferred match? We do know that when it comes to capital handling or betting amount then there's always that kind of fixed amount that i have been able to set not unless if you are on the time that you are that too emotional or having that stirred up kind of thinking
then you would really be making that all in but if you are on the moment that you are following your gambling rules and discipline then you would really be doing this.

Speaking about betting on sports that i dont watch but keeping on making up some bets? This is only on secondary ones and not on the main ones. NBA is something i do always look and watch
compared when betting on Football but i dont watch the game but only knows the result after the game.

It's so funny actually thinking that I do this quite some times and very often, there was this channel I belong to that mostly gave codes to games for us to stake, one of this games where ice hockey and mba basketball that I did not even have any idea about, If I were asked on why grounds that I feel the predictions would work out I had none, yet I would always place my bet like it was as sure banker, I did lose some times and won some times, I was a fun experience untill I lost my account that I was joined on the channel and since then I have not had such opportunity again.

i don't have bets where i don't understand the game myself, because i think that if a gambler wants to bet then he must first understand the bet he wants to take. because how could he possibly analyze the match and get the best results from it if he didn't know the sport? it's just a waste of money if a bettor bets on a sport he doesn't understand.

I was frequently watching football in the past but now I'm not watching matches often these days. However I still don't see it as an obstacle for me to bet on them.  Smiley  I have won many times despite not watching the match I bet on. Because even if I don't watch it I still have a good level knowledge about the teams I bet on.

The reason is that I'm still keeping myself up-to-date about the last conditions of teams by reading recent data about them. If I don't have any knowledge about a sports branch then I would never bet on it.  Grin  Because it doesn't look fun to me to tell the truth. However I understand people who are doing it anyway just for some excitement of course.

Including I also often do soccer betting without seeing the match, for reasons of time and busyness that make me not have time to watch the team I bet into, but I still bet.



I have done this same thing but in soccer teams, more than anything when I support Real Madrid because I do it with a closed eye, for the simple fact that things can be very good for me, I trust in my favorite team, and it is something that I take as a risk, but this is something that I could always take that attribution only with that team, the rest I have many things to consider if I bet on other teams, I have to see what the lineup is like, how the bench is positioned, the Subsequently, see how the team is doing, for example in the PL I make bets that are well established and analyzed, when I see a team that is missing two or three key players, I have to think about whether to make the bet or not.

But in the case of Madrid with a closed eye, I like to trust in the analysis and vision of the game that Ancelott has in the team, although that sometimes means that he loses on occasion, which I must accept with total integrity.


Yes, of course, everyone has a team that he trusts to bet on, it can be said that it is a favorite team that we trust to bet on, and of course you see the opponent first before deciding to bet and leave it. I do this kind of thing on the current English league and Bundesliga teams that I can trust without seeing many factors that must be analyzed so that we are confident in betting.

Whether it's fun or not sometimes I personally want to keep betting, I don't know if it's beyond logic if you look at the benefits but I personally feel it's better to bet and leave it on a team that we already trust, yes although as you said sometimes losing and sometimes winning is a risk, but what makes me believe is the win rate and I'm quite familiar with it.

Yes, there are always possibilities to do things right with the bets, on a personal level, right now betting in favor of Leverkusen is equivalent to a sure win, because really that team is giving everything in the Bundesliga, so this type of are things that we must take care to do, to put into practice in order to generate more confidence, what we want is to make money, and with football it is a very nice way to make money, the English League is a bit complicated, because Actually my favorite is Liverpool, but Arsenal and City are about to go up, however I like Liverpool more so there is Luis Diaz and Salah, apart from the fact that they are under the direction of a Klopp who wants to leave, So it would be great if they could close on a high note if they could win the PL.

Do you have a sports that you keep betting on even though you don’t watch this sports live or you don’t know the full specifications of this game?

In my case, I keep betting on tennis whenever I have spare money on my casino balance from my VIP rewards(Rakeback) after my long game session on live games. I’m not really a fan of sports betting in general but I do place bet randomly on tennis especially the Asian Handicap on live match. I’m always betting on the underdog that already has 1 set advantage to the favorite players. I do this bet just for fun no string attached.

I believe this is the literal definition of “gamble what you can afford to lose”.  Grin
I think I am absolutely the same with you, I actually don't watch any other sports matches aside from football, car or motorcycle race, wrestling like WWE, UFC and so on,  but amazingly, the only sports games I know I watch that I actually do bet on is football, and when it comes to other sports games I bet on, I bet alot of on table tennis, volleyball, hockey, this are games I don't actually watch, and neither do I have any idea what their specification are, I don't even know the team and neither do I have any idea how they play, but I just bet on which ever team I feel is winning (for live bets) or any team I feel in my spirit will win.

Actually, sometimes, I do follow other gamblers bets, like on stake, it's very easy to view or see other users betting tickets and actually copy the bets very easily if you want, so, most of the time when I have no idea what or who or which team to bet on, I just go to stake betting log, find betting tickets in table tennis, or volley ball, or hockey, of other games gamblers, and copy the bet of any gambler I feel his or her ticket stand a better chance of winning, and amazing, sometimes I do win, while other times, I lose, but the good thing is, l always have fun doing it, and most importantly, I never bet any money above what I can afford to lose, in fact, I alway try this type of betting with amounts way lower than what I can actually afford to lose, so that, even I lost at the end, it won't or I won't feel like a lost anything.

It's unusual for me to bet on any sports or even leagues from my favorite sports that I not closely following. I spells disaster for a bettor to do this. It's irresponsible gambling even in small amounts if this is done regularly.

But there were times where I tried to multi bet on very low odds. Like 10 to 30 games on my multi-bet, all of them have very low odds. But I also do this with small amounts only. And even with low odds it is still not sure to win especially when you are betting on a sport or a league where you have zero to little knowledge.

I don't see any problem in this. I don’t watch 99% of the games on which I place bets (at most I check the text broadcast and only if I make a live bet, if it’s not a live bet then I just wait for the result). I am an adult with a family and spending 2 hours of my life watching just one football match (while I am interested in at least 10 games in each round) is simply unrealistic. Watching a game on tape has no emotional meaning, and football games rarely fit into your schedule, so I study (at my own time, which I choose) statistics, game information, etc. but I watch the game itself only on rare occasions.

I bet in different sports ranging from football, Ice Hockey and Table Tennis but I only watch some games in football. Ever since I started gambling, I haven't watched any game in Ice Hockey that I placed. In fact, most of the teams I don't even know them. I go to a prediction site and then make selections based on what they have predicted. This is similar to what I do when I make selections on Table Tennis. But as for football, the scenario is different for me. I watch football games and so I am knowledgeable in football predictions and so I know where to get my data to make informed decision.

However, I don't think if it's possible to watch all the games in a ticket. Even though I watch football, I still find it difficult to watch all the games in a multibet, reason being that some games can start the same time making it impossible to follow all the games live.

There are some sports that I don't know specifically about, but I know about them in general terms. And I used to bet on those sports. Of course I don't always bet on those sports but I think it's fun when betting on sports you don't know much about. I have bet on tennis, badminton and basketball. I only know a few names of players who often play in Grand Slams or in Open Tournaments 1000 series. I only know some famous NBA teams like Warriors, Pelican, Lakers, Hornets, but I don't know which one is the strongest in that season. Sometimes I get to know some more specific things when I try to bet on the sport.

Sometimes It's okay to explore in order for us to learn new things about gambling activities. It's kinda challenging for us knowing that we have no any idea on the team that we support and it is giving us an excitement to know if we have a good choice or not, If we are lucky or not. Just like you, there was a time that I've placed a bet on some sports that I didn't know or I didn't like, someone asked me why I'm still placing a bet even if I don't have any Idea? the only thing that I answered is "For fun and excitement only"

Good numbers of gambling don’t really watch the game they are betting on, they just understand the online view of the betting and just going straight to gambling, a lot of people are usually do that frequently and it works for them, it not really necessary people are betting steady and they don’t even have time to watch the games because the  gamble in different games, I’m a number one example. The only thing I do is to check the strength of the team and the odd and continue with my prediction, it happens to good numbers of gamblers. To me the kind of game i Usually gambled I won’t have all the time to watch it and it will be more easier and understanding.
So I don’t really see any challenges in betting in a support that you don’t, But watching the support before betting is more better because you will physically experience the both team and pressure between them.
Yes, I often see my friends who bet on sports betting, they don't watch the match that is taking place, but they have a good understanding of the team they are betting on and before they place a bet of course they will analyze the history of the match they are betting on. Indeed, some people who place bets on several matches certainly don't have time to watch the match and they prefer to see online the results of the match whether they can win or not.

In the event that you're a fan of the sport, then you'll want to make sure that you've got a good understanding of the game, and that you've got a good understanding of the game, and that you've got a good understanding of the game, and that you've got a good understanding of the game. This is the advantage of sports betting in addition to the outcome of the bet between winning and losing, which means that if for example you have a fairly broad understanding and insight into a team that can help you in terms of making decisions that have a high probability of winning then you don't need to bet while watching the match if you don't have enough time to watch it or because you are very busy with other things.

So I think it's actually not a problem even if you bet but not by watching the match of a team that you bet on because this is sports betting which is different from other types of bets such as bets that cannot be left like slot machines, dice or others that require your presence to play.

Risking gives them the thrills. It always does and the bigger the money the more exciting for them.
But I don't think they are seriously wagering large amounts of money for a sport they know nothing about. This is like suicide. I like boxing but there's no event every week for boxing. I wouldn't go bet on Cricket all because there is no boxing event, I would rather wait for weeks.

Bettors risk money but they are also finding ways to win which is where the thrills are and it always feels good to know the strategy used works. It's a vindication when a bettor's team wins the match.
Gamblers love the thrill of risk-taking and the satisfaction that comes from successful wagering. Indeed, for many bettors, the excitement of placing bets and the potential rewards that come with them can be a significant draw. Some may wager larger amounts of money for the added thrill, but they would surely not do so on sports they know little about. Sports betting often involves a degree of knowledge and understanding of the sport being wagered on, as well as the teams and players involved. Betting blindly on unfamiliar sports would indeed be akin to gambling recklessly, which most bettors seek to avoid.

It's important to have familiarity and personal interest in sports betting decisions. Bettors are more likely to wager on sports they are knowledgeable about and passionate about, because this allows them to make more informed decisions and increases their enjoyment of the betting experience. The satisfaction derived from successful betting goes beyond mere financial gains, it's also about the validation of the knowledge and strategies.

Yes, of course, we are sure of the analysis we have done before so that we dare to bet without watching the match, one of the things I do is like in parlay betting, it is quite time-consuming if we have to watch every match and it is quite sure that people who bet soccer with parlay on average from them do not watch every match.

Do you have a sports that you keep betting on even though you don’t watch this sports live or you don’t know the full specifications of this game?
No I don’t have any sport that I don’t watch and I do gamble on it. The only sport which I do gamble on is football, and it’s what I watch mostly, I don’t gamble on any other sport, maybe because am not interested in them or maybe one of the most popular sport in my country is football, you will hardly hear about any other sport, so I gamble on football alone. If you are gambling on sport which you don’t follow up, or sport which you have no knowledge about, then I will say you are just wasting your money, because their is higher chances that you are going to lose after placing bet on sports like that, and I don’t know the fun which you will be deriving from that.

Most of the people that I know which are gambling on sport which they have no knowledge about, most of them are the once which are always depending on people making predictions so they do follow their predictions, because how will you randomly gamble on sport which you have zero knowledge about.
I understand the point you are making but from where am standing something tells me you are not that much of a gambler because I believe if you are then you would understand that there is actually nothing like wasting your money because no one is ever certain of their winning because if they are then the whole gambling thing will have another whole twist to it and moreover before going to gamble, you must have isolated the particular funds so that even if or when you lose it, it won't be as if you actually wasted your money.
You are absolutely correct; I am a gambler myself, and I have multiple personal encounters with it. In addition, I conducted extensive research on the topic and read about the experiences of numerous other gamblers. I recognize that part of the appeal of gambling is the excitement of the unknown, and that no one can guarantee a win. I also understand that for many people, financial loss may be heartbreaking, particularly if they are gambling with money they cannot afford to lose. I understand that some people can gamble without jeopardizing their financial security, but this does not appear to be the case for everyone. In fact, it appears that the majority of gamblers find the risk of financial loss appealing.
I also recognize that it can be a complicated and tough experience. But, in whatever you do, remember that gambling has both positive and negative sides, and that it can be a tough habit to overcome.

Risking gives them the thrills. It always does and the bigger the money the more exciting for them.
But I don't think they are seriously wagering large amounts of money for a sport they know nothing about. This is like suicide. I like boxing but there's no event every week for boxing. I wouldn't go bet on Cricket all because there is no boxing event, I would rather wait for weeks.
