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

Usually on esports on which there are really indeed games on which i do skip out on watching and do focus into those main events but it would really be that depending into certain conditions on which
there are really moments that i cant be able to watch because im busy or there's something that i do but if possible then i would really be that tending to watch specially if its finals.
The only important thing on here is that you should really be that knowledgeable into the bets that you are really that making. There would really be no point on making up
bets on games or sports on which you dont even know on what it is or simply into those bets that you dont even know on what it is. Also, there's no fun on betting
on sports that you dont even know.

Have had so much love for basketball back then buy I don't find myself watching it, don't know why probably I would have not placed my mind to explore this game aside having love for it.
Weeks ago I had to make some findings of our betting in the site works and I also place a bet which is an amount I can afford to lose , and I don't seem to regret it cause deep down I so much love this game and want to explore the inner part of it,so with time I believe it will definitely turn out positive.
Nevertheless I'm aware it's not like football,so every rules concerning the game should be learnt in other to enjoy it.so I'm just trying a little bit to place bets sometimes and see how it unfolds.

Makes no sense to me, I would get like maybe someone betting on super bowl or world cup finals, because they are so huge, but still it is not that easy to bet on those without watching. I did bet on super bowl, and I do not watch nfl, but I do watch super bowl every year, many people are like me, we do not watch nfl, the sport itself is not "that" entertaining for us, to be fair it is not huge outside of USA but it is literally the biggest thing in all of USA, so I get that but that doesn't mean that we are going to be getting easy results.

So, I think it is only fair to say that I still watch what I bet on at least, and I do not get why people would bet on what they do not wager on, that still doesn't make sense to me at all.

I'm a sports fan and not really into sports but I casually bet on soccer and basketball sometimes. I do not have much time to watch the games due to work. And I cannot control my emotions if ever I'm going to watch the games. So, instead, I regularly check the sports webpages and check on the sports social media to get updates.

That will work. You just need to get updated so that you are not blindly betting. I mean, you will still have the idea of what is happening in the league and even if it's just a 1 percent increase in the chance to win, then it's okay.
Some gamblers don't even read those, they just go for the favorite or whatever they like. I can say because I also have been there. I lost the whole 5 lines that I made for the day so I need to chase my losses. Went to the table tennis matches because they are fast games but I had no clue about whoever was playing, I just relied on the favorites. It's not easy to win, in 10 games I can only get 2-3 wins and I just increased my losses after that. After that, I stopped that type of guessing bet, I controlled my urge and just waited for the next game on the sport that I preferred and had knowledge about.
We can still place our bets even if we do not watch, as long as we do have an idea about that sport, especially the players or teams.

There's no need to be upset

I tried some bets on soccer and its fun even without watching the games
But for other sports I think you have to know a little bit about it so it makes not a lot of sense for me to bet on it using only the stats

Interesting to read other answers here to check different opinions

In my personal case, I experienced something similar when I didn't watch sports but dared to place a bet, namely boxing. Actually, I don't like boxing, but at that time the players who appeared were players who were quite familiar. among the people so I dare to place a bet there. and what happened in the end was that the player I bet on won, even though initially I only dared to bet a little, the results were not bad, but the most important thing was that I was happy because my supporting player had won.

I have a bit different approach towards sports betting and gambling in general. When I place bet or gamble, I do it not to earn money, but do it for entertainment, to add a little bit spiciness to watching the game. Those who place bets and dont watch, I think are those who use gambling to earn and physically cant watch all the events they have placed bet on. I prefer to get maximum emotions for the money I have spent on a bet.

Thats how it's supposed to be but to be fair, I think maybe 5% or less of bettors see it the same way.
Almost everybody want's to make money with it, and most of them lose while doing so.
There are a fey lucky winners but the house always wins, as usual.

I have high respect for people that just see and use the entertainment factor of betting and gambling in general, that's the safest and most fun way for sure!

Well, that's true and I admit that I bet because I just want to win or I just want to see if my instincts will be right on the possible number that will appear, but when it comes to sports, I don't really want to watch, especially when it's NBA, Maybe I really don't like men sports that's why, but it doesn't mean that if you don't watch it, you don't enjoy it. I also enjoy it somehow because I challenge myself when it comes to the outcome of what I predicted.

I also have that one sport (rugby, cricket, darts, esports) where it becomes the flavor of the week/month and I would continue betting on it due to sheer luck that keeps going even though I don't research as much about the players and their opponents.

I keep betting on Mobile Legends matches, but I never played it. I understand the game a little because I used to play DOTA II and there are a lot of similarities, but I really don't understand the specific rules, skills, characters, strategies, and so on.

For me, it's League of Legends instead of Mobile Legends. Grin

I would only try to understand the mechanics through the commentators and quickly learn their points because it resembles another game I used to play.

I have many sports that I can gamble on even though I don't watch the sports and that's boxing, I love gambling on this sport as if I win I'll be happy and when I lose and I know that the individual that made me lose would have received the beating of his life. Boxing is very physical sport and the feelings that comes from knowing that the winner would have beaten up his opponents is what makes me to place a bet on the matches when I have free spare cash left in my gambling account.

I don't have it in mind to bet on boxing match but when I come across them I'll do some research on the both boxers then pick the boxer that I think has more chances to win through knockout. I don't place big bets on boxing matches but just the amount that I'll be okay losing as boxing aren't always predictable. A boxer that we all will be thinking is going to win can end up getting beaten with knockout.

But since it is a popular game here and I love betting, I ended up betting on it. I make bets on both big Mobile Legends tournaments and local matches in the neighborhood. As a matter of fact, just the other day I lost my bet when my friends challenged players from another village.

Although I don't usually do it, I have also done this several times in the past. I sometimes tail other bets even in sports that I don't actually watch. Of course I assume that those bets are analyzed by their bettors. They probably think they are the winning bets. Knowing this makes me feel a little safe. Although I don't know the teams or players and I don't know how they play, I still believe that my bets are winning. Most often I tail the bets of my friends.

I think most persons just pick based on odds, they would make decisions that if the odds are smaller then it would have a higher chance of happening and even without knowing the clubs or sport they might well end up picking rightly than someone else that knows them and makes a wrong Decision, I cases like this it's all about luck even tho gambling is all about luck but I guess you have to be luckier to win bets like this one.

In the past I placed bets on MMA fights and tennis games and NBA games and I didn't watch the games, as I analyzed the games before placing my bets so I didn't see any problem with that, but over time I stopped placing bets on these sports but I still follow them and watch the highlights and the reason I stopped betting on them and not watching the games is because they are games that are held at a time when I am sleeping so I didn't have any good conditions for I watch the games. That's why I only bet on football games, but not all the football games I bet on are games I watch. But even if I don't watch it, I still just need to watch the highlights

because they are teams that I have followed for many years, I know the players and I know how they play, so there is no problem in not watching the football games that I place bets on. I often even think it's good to be this way because it avoids stress. when a person bets on a game and watches that game, the person starts to think a lot about what will happen if that game ends with a negative result, while watching a game in which the person did not place a bet, the person pays more attention to the players and watches no pressure

Many times I placed a bet but I didn't see the match. Some reasons are due to broadcast time and health condition. Often EPL and UCL matches are broadcast at 1 or 2 pm here. It's really beyond my ability to watch it because sometimes I have things to do in the morning.

Usually I reduce the bet amount for these matches that I don't see.

We have what we called tension in the system, anytime you're in a position to place wager on either your favorite team, you start feeling nervous and that alone will trigger you to missed out on the game that holds such significant odds. Gambling doesn't go most times as planned, I've witnessed how these games played out, it's just time to calmly settled down and observed the game. I can be fully prepared to watch the game but due to the reasons I've already place bets on this particular game, I sensed threats and the best way to avoid them is simply sleep and wake up after the end of the game.

Actually, your approach and mindset towards gambling is good that you come only for fun and maybe I believe that you are one of the gamblers who are quite responsible with whatever results will occur later at the end of the session. On the other hand there is one thing that I question about whether you are able to think responsibly and say that playing just for fun is because you are using the bonus balance from being a VIP user (rakeback) or whether you can also put this kind of responsibility when you bet with a budget that you spend from your personal pocket? This is enough to question me.

On the other hand if you do have a little knowledge about the world of sports then I think do well and according to the knowledge you have in terms of choosing a team, make sure it is a team that is pretty good at that time compared to some other teams, I understand that you are gambling responsibly and can afford to lose but it is a wise decision if you are able to consider everything well in terms of choosing a team that has a greater potential to win because after all we all like the name victory even though basically earning is not our goal.

By health condition, I suppose you mean sick here but it's impressive on how you still manage to place a bet despite having that kind of condition. I still think it can affect our decisions or picks, and most of all our bodies.

So, it's better to just refrain from doing it and let your body lest/recover first. That way, you can enjoy betting at its fullest, and you can also do other good things in life if you are not sick, but this is also one of the good things about sports betting, I mean we can place a bet and leave it and come back only later on to know the result if we win or not, but on other forms of gambling, they may need a constant monitoring. For those matches that you missed to watch, I guess you can still watch their replays in your vacant time?

I do agree that the smart way to go would be making sure that you are gambling on something you are aware of and not something you do not watch. I rarely ever do this, even if I do not watch THAT game, it's a sport that I normally watch. It has happened many many many times before when I watch the sport itself, but just happen to miss that specific game, it happens almost every week.

But I rarely, if ever, gamble on anything that I would never watch, it has to be a game where I would watch if I have the time and enjoy the game. Football, Basketball and Formula 1, these are my main trio and I will keep on betting into these games and I guess it would probably not be all that confusing neither, it will be something to watch for without a doubt.

I have 3 rules actually.
First, I never bet on sports I don't know. Meaning I only bet games where I made some information gathering before the match. Also I must know the sport, league and current situation of both teams/players involved.
Second, I only make bets with 2 way results ( like tennis, basketball, volleyball ), meaning football or hockey and so on that might result in a draw are gone from my list.

Third, I almost never watch the games I bet on live. Sure, I follow the live ticker but watching the actual game is something I never do because seeing my team making too many mistakes or misses annoys me too much, haha.

Point #1- I agree with this on which it would be always best that you shouldnt really be making out some bets on the games or sports that you dont even know. There's no point on doing that.
Point #2- When it come to bet limitation then it would really be that just that depending because if we do see some good opportunity bets on which you do know then numbers
cant really be known.
Point #3- Watching it live? This is where excitement comes up but if you are that someone whose really that becoming that impulsive then it would really be just that wise
that you would really be skipping on watching on.

In overall, it would really be always best that you should really be having that kind of consideration that you shouldn't really be betting on games on which you dont know
The odds or chance of winning would really be just that less in compared into those games which you do know on what it is.
