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 feel you. Whenever I have extra funds after placing a bet on my usual sports, I always place a parlay bet on football which in the first place, I don't even know the game rules, game mechanics, and everything about that sport. I'm just depending on pure luck and if I lose it, just move on.

It all started when I luckily won a random bet on a football match way back years ago. It was a parlay bet and most of my selections are DRAW results. The odds on DRAW mostly at football matches are playing from over 3.00 to 5.00, obviously depending on what team is facing. Luckily, I hit those 5 parlay bets. I can't remember the total odds but I take home a big amount.

Since then, I'm hoping I can hit again a random parlay bet with only selecting a DRAW pick.

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

Well, I am one person that is a football lover and literally all my betting is always on football games, but there was a certain time in my life I started placing bet on dog race even though I wasn't fully submerged into it, but however I made some bet on dog race sometime past. I didn't continue because it was not my environment of specialty, so I had to stop and concentrated on football where I understand how it works.

But one thing with betting is the fact that you can actually learn or concentrate on a particular sports and understand how it works then you begin to bet on them even though is not your area of specialty, wether it is hockey, tennis, football, basketball etc. what you just need to do is to give some time of concentration to understand how the game works, once you give your time and dedication to a certain sports and you begin to understand those teams that are likely winners and people that are good at it, then you can begin to place your bet on them.

The complexity and sweetness of gambling can only be enjoyed when you try new things especially out of your comfort zone, at first it might look dangerous but it's worth trying.

Nope. i havent done such thing because it would really be just that a total waste if you do make use of those funds on something that you arent even aware on what sports it is or what
are the rules or doesnt even have the team that you could bet on. Yes, this is gambling but not on the sense that you would really be just that betting so carelessly and this is why i dont really like
on doing that just because it is really just that a waste of money on something on a bet that you wasnt sure off. I would rather be making up some bets which i do know or something that
i do have the chance on winning. Well, i have tested out on making some bets on other teams but im aware of what game it is which is on esports on which there is a certain
game on which im aware a bit but not in overall. I did make some blind bets and do able to stick into favorite but ended up on a loss.

There are many sports I don't watch because of my busy schedule and I mostly beg on them. We could have not choice than to vet in the sport even if we don't watch the bet. I even prefer to bet on a particular sport and later after the match has ended, I could conveniently check the results without too much pressure. This is more better for me that to keep watching for the result and it ended to be the opposite of what I bet on. That can be more emotional than just leaving the bet to play then one can check the end result. I don't like watching and being emotional at the same time. It mostly makes me feel somehow especially when the match ended in the opposite of my bet.

I know don't what the OP really meant, because there are two ways to this

1. betting on matches you won't or don't watch
2. Betting on an entire sport you don't actually watch

Because I believe it's very much possible to bet on games matches that you don't watch and also betting on leagues that you are not familiar with even on TV. But I think some persons are much okay with such bets because it reduces the tension and make something think positively rather than watching the game play out.

When it comes to sports bets, I focus on the sports I enjoy watching. But it is not possible to watch all the games, so you just make your prediction and select the game to want to watch. As I am watching my preferred games, my phone will be in my hands to check the outcomes of other games I placed bets. My most preferred game is football and enjoy betting on games in any football league. Gambling for me is for fun and profit, therefore my target always is to enjoy my games and also win some money. It is easier for me to gamble on the game that I understand. But when most football leagues have ended, my alternative with be slots games on casinos. In some cases, I might be encouraged by some friends to try betting on other sports but I don't get the same level of pleasure. Immediately the league resumes, football bets will be my point of call.

I've done that before when there were some spare amount on my account. It just don't feel right when I see that there's still balance from it and that's why I think that I just bet it randomly.

The journey that I've got from doing this wasn't good. They may be small amounts but they're not really good at all as most of them have been losing. I bet with both small and big odds but never found in doing any of that.

That's why even with small amounts, when done collectively, the amount was still regretful to be seen as just losing money.

After reaching the target/profit, sometimes I bet blindly on Esports and place a bet on the favorite with the odds less than 1.5x.
I even dont know how good or bad the team was, and I never play any of the games in esport such as LoL, Valorant, Crossfire, etc.
Its only for fun, with hope the winning from it can cover the withdrawal fees.

Although my case is different, maybe this will count: Betting on a different league that I don't follow but is still under my favorite sports.

To make it clear, for example, I always bet on basketball as my preferred sport, usually in the NBA and our local basketball league, PBA. But sometimes, when I'm feeling it, extending my betting to other basketball leagues which is not familiar to me, and my knowledge is lacking, like CBA, NCAA, NBL any other basketball league from different countries that was covered by the sportsbook.

My winning rate placing bets from unfamiliar leagues? Not good.

I'm guilty of this too but I think most if not all are guilty of this habit. As a sport gambler, you can't watch all the sports, some are not even fun to watch but for the sake of gambling and precise prediction, you add them to your games and sometimes, it's because there is not available games to pick and instead of forcing picks from a particular games, you go for the other available sports.

I do hockey and Basketball as an additional multiple bets to have a bigger odd most often and I don't watch them but from my experience, I'm familiar with some of them and how some of their players behaves in field and from their last matches, I do put them on my watch list even if I don't play them. That gives me insight about their performance, if they are in form or if they are having difficulty in their respective leagues.

It is not all the time that we would have time to watch all the matches that we bet on, due to some important issues on ground, that is worth handling than watching football for entertainment. I sometimes bet on our local league because there is a club that is the most favorite in the league, so I just place my bet without watching the match. This is because it is always boring, and I am not used to watching boring games. This is why most times I just place my bet and follow up the result online with my phone.

That's cool because i actually do the same thing but mine is different from yours as I bet on baseball and believe I don't even have a clue on how the game is being decided and even the rules involved in the game but the reason I kept playing the game was because anytime I selected some match base on the odd difference the game always come and plays out well for me and that's why I always flip some spare cash on this sports but it's still funny though because I don't know and don't even watch the sport but the urge to bet on it just keeps playing on my head.

yes, most of the time I also bet on tennis without watching the match...the only sport that I really can't bet in this way... are horse races! I must say that compared to classic bookmakers, crypto-bookmakers offer different options for following live matches.

Actually if you ask me like that the sports that I don't watch but keep gambling on them then I have no sports that I do gambling like this. Actually I love to bet on two sports one football and the others one is cricket. I always take my bet on these two sports and always take a look in the middle time on the first time or at the last time of the match. Moreover I have little experience like that if I know that the match teams strength then I place bet on that match without watching. If there is one high voltage match I always love to watch and bet.

Most of the time I place bets on football but never watch the games. To be more specific, I place bets on the Premier League because of the promotions. I never watch football games because for me it's kind of boring and football isn't popular in my country. Most of the casinos have great promotions when it comes to that tournament (the Premier League); even if you look at BitcoinTalk's game and round section most of the contests are about the Premier League. Also, most of the popular gambling websites are sponsored by some of the teams in the Premier League. Thats encourage me to place bet but never watch the game.

Def gambling using the method you say. You realize that some of the pros don't play hard in the 1st set and turn it on in the 2nd and 3rd sets. They try to feel out their opponent. Least that's what I feel is happening.

Back to your question, sometimes I like to bet on the underdog coming back in a basketball game. I have bet the Golden State Warriors many time to come back from down 20 around halftime. Last night some could have won money betting the Lakers to come back and beat the Clippers. Lakers were down 21 and came back to win by 4. Sometimes a longshot gamble pays off.

table tennis, tennis and Ice hockey
these three types of sports are where I usually bet randomly and don't watch the matches because I only try my luck in small amounts and usually I use parlay bets to try my luck with big odds.
the reason I didn't watch the match broadcast is because I don't really like that sport and I'm just saying what I often say here, that I gamble for fun and just try my luck.

I often bet on sports betting but my favorite sport is just football, although sometimes I also bet on the NBA or UFC, but I prefer football, which for me provides more tension for a long time, the sensation of watching a long and satisfying match.
sometimes I also want to watch table tennis or table tennis matches, but when I've only seen 1 set of matches I'm starting to get bored.

NBA is the easiest to bet since there are lots of fans everywhere who can tell which team will win. i can just call my cousins who are always updated about NBA games but most of the time i just visit NBAA threads and look for those posts and see which one they think will win. i don't even have to watch the games. sadly, it's not always a win but there are times that i get 3/3 that wins. if it's a good enough practice, i can continue doing it.

I have been placing bets on horseback riding this period, as I just happened to discover that it's among the options at one of my regular local casinos.

I don't even know how these horses have been performing in the past, but I just fine myself placing bets on them, selecting any of them that I also happen to feel will win the raise, which I have never one day watched a horse raise that I can remember.

Another sport game on which I have also placed a few bets is tennis, and I have not watched it before, but I have copied and edited a few games on them and placed a bet that I accidentally won without even knowing the result of the game could have turned out to be that way.

Football. Well I'm not that familiar with the teams and I don't really play this sport on the actual unlike with boxing and basketball that most of us are aware of how things are going. For me, it is important to know how the game itself works 'coz in such way you'd be able to create a more organized analysis of what team or fighter is more likely to win. On my personal point of view, it is fine to bet with gambling games or teams in sportsbetting you are not that familiar with especially if you're just up with entertainment and not profit. If you are chasing for profit then it would be better to know things to check if you're being read on. The reason why I often bet in these games is to calibrate my luck with the games I actually play with.

I know that many prefer good odds instead of placing a bet on a sport they like. I find it wrong, as I doubt that anyone can be an expert at everything. Such betting might lead to missing good chances or loosing even shen choosing a favourite. I like mma and I mostly bet on there. But sometimes, when casinos offer good odds or a bonus, I look on and try to find luck in football, even though I barely watch the game.

Indeed odd is a factor. Sometimes if you are not familiar with things, then numbers are the main basis of your bettinf division. If it is a premium league then there'll be no need to remind the personnel. I really hope yhat you should be fine fo accept things.
