I used to be a fan before a gambler, but now I am a gambler before a fan. I enjoy betting more than I enjoy watching & analyzing every game, I let others do that job... but I like to watch their stats and draw my own conclusions.

I watch an interesting game sometimes, but for that to happen I need to be free that evening (from work and family obligations) when there are some interesting games, which doesn't happen very often.

I am not so much into the money as I am into searching for good bets while I watch stats... if I win it's great, but that doesn't happen all the time.

this leads me to thinking whether do people bet on sports they do not enjoy or are not a fan of? maybe there are people out there who are just really in for the money and they would bet on sports that are popular and they have a bigger chance on winning at even if they do not particularly enjoy them
You asked the question and gave the right answer to it. There are people who care about their favorite team and sports but they still bet against them or for them. Being passionate do not put food or pay our bills. We can be passionate on our favorite sports at the same time we can also be passionate about making money through them. What i have noticed recently is people give more attention to the sports they bet on. A football fan bet mostly on football games, a basketball fan would rather choose to bet mostly on basketball games instead of football. And we all know the reasons why it is so. We put our mind where our money comes from. That is just human nature and many persons are dancing to the tune.

i am of the view that it is not right to bet on games you don't enjoy and this view is based on several obvious reason ranging from the fact that, any sports you do not enjoy will give you the most of the losses because you might end up selecting games you know literally nothing about or inconvenient yourself into learning games you are not interested in just because you want to include them in the list of games you will be betting at a time.

if it is difficult to watch games you don't enjoy, it is going to be more difficult gambling on them because all your prediction is going to be completely void of any form of thorough analysis.

i am a sports fan before i am a gambler i watch sports and i bet on my predictions to amplify the entertainment and enjoyment i get from that sports i could not bet while watching a sport but it is always much more fun to look forward to the results knowing especially that you might win in the end so if your favorite team wins you are happy as a fan but you can be happier if you also win some money from betting on them
Money is emotion Money is energy. When you can earn money in some way it will make you happy and when you get money without any effort it will make you even more happy.  But the easier money comes from there, the easier it is to lose money.  Gambling is a bad addiction that will make you emotional very quickly due to which you will make various financial decisions very quickly which you will regret later.  We all love to enjoy sports because we love sports but losing money by betting on these sports is enough to spoil our enjoyment.

personally i can't imagine having to sit and watch and analyze countless of matches of a sport i do not enjoy watching just to bet on them

what about you?
I can't drop the sport that I didn't enjoy but I have question, why the sport you don't like but as soon as you place a bet on it, you enjoy it? Know why? lol because betting makes sports more exciting, even for people who don’t usually follow them. It gives games or tournaments more meaning and makes every moment feel thrilling. Even small bets can make someone cheer for team or player like a dedicated fan. It’s fun way to connect with the sport you didn't enjoy, even if just for while..

It's too strange how a person can bet on a game he doesn't even like. I completely agree with you, this will only increase money with zero happiness, and maybe at that time, he was just so bored. I think when a sports gambler engages in gambling, he bets on the game he really likes because he is an expert in that game and knows everything about his team players. He will make good bets on the right things, not only earning money but also gaining real happiness. On one side, he wins his bet, and on the other, he watches the whole match. In contrast, if you just place your bet and wait for the end of the match or the end of the bet, you get nothing but boredom and a waste of time, in my view, because being present in a place you don't like is likely a waste of time.

This your topic is some how complex because it's all depends on the individual involved and different people has different reasons when gambling because for those who see gambling basically for the sole purpose of making money as far as they are sure about making money from the particular gambling events they will definitely bet on sports that they don't even like because to them it's all about making money

And we also have the second category of people who are not too particular about money when it comes to gambling and see gambling basically from the point of leisure and entertainment so this sets of people will only gamble on games that they fancy to be exciting and fun while gambling or watching

Like many have said already, some gamblers gambles for the money and those are the ones who might want to analyze too many sports and place bets on them without even having them as their favorite. Everyone loves soccer and loves betting on soccer but I'm not a fan of basketball I still bet on it. I only enjoy when I make wins that the fun part but making loss bring regret that when I realize they I should only bet on sports I enjoy. Though every gambler have their own preference for different sports.

But you at least watch the commentaries and summaries. Basketball is so popular that I feel that it is next to football and if you are betting on it, you should have some likeness for the star players like Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kevin Durant, and some others who are popular.
As much as I don't fan basketball, I still have some teams and players that I voted for in the 2024 NBA rankings, and the top on my list of best players are Minnesota Timberwolves, Kelvin Durant and some others, but my vote was strongly for the two mentioned player's, on few abd as for games commentary I follow up a lot to feed my information that I need to make my analysis, just that I don't watch the game the way I watch football because I enjoy football More compared to basketball.

Only for the teams I like that I wait for even when I should be sleeping. In general, football is the sport I like the most and I have a good knowledge of myself when I bet on it.
I bet on the teams I like if I think my favorite team has a good chance of winning. I know that every team that I like as a fan doesn't have to bet on them to win. If the odds are in my favor I would bet on another outcome, I would not miss it while enjoying the game.

If your approach on bet is somewhat related to your habits or what you like probably you're not doing well.
this can lead to bet on sympthy and not based on real events. Personally I don't like some sports/players but they help me with "making money".
Even if you don't enjoy it, treat your gambling activity like a real job. You are here for earning purpose. Otherwise treat your gambling activity as any other hobby...
Try to follow items that you like and no more.

I can bet on a sport that I'm not familiar with but I can't bet on a sport that I don't like. People who gamble for fun don't need to bet on sports that they don't like or have interest in, there won't be any entertainment in it. One of the fun of sports bet is knowing the current forms of teams and their players to be able to make reasonable analysis. Maybe it's professional gamblers that can bet on different types of sports whether they like them or not. With a sport like football I don't need to know much about every country's league, I can get information about a league and make my bets. But for sports that doesn't interest me I wouldn't be motivated to follow their news.

When you are doing it for the money then you can, the most important thing for a gambler is to win so if he has the assurance of winning the bet he will risk it, and mind you, you can bet on a game you don't watch and is not a must to follow up with the games if you don't enjoy the game. For example, I bet on basketball despite the fact that I don't watch it, all that I need is information about the team and players.
What are the chances of you finding an unbiased and complete detailed analysis of a team or an athlete from the internet? Surely you won’t get it from fans who have their own favorites. Some media outlets also are sometimes biased or maybe just lack the whole picture of the match when reporting.

You need to know how a team or an athlete plays so you know how will they fare with a specific opponent or in a specific match. Details like this would be found if you watch the matches. Because there might be some talents that are going unnoticed because only the popular ones are reported by big media outlets that you may miss.

what about you?
This question is similar to analyzing football matches in unpopular leagues that you do not watch just because you heard that if you bet on those leagues, your chances of winning is high. Some people do it and they don't mind. They bet for the profit and not for entertainment purpose.

For example, I bet on basketball despite the fact that I don't watch it, all that I need is information about the team and players.
But you at least watch the commentaries and summaries. Basketball is so popular that I feel that it is next to football and if you are betting on it, you should have some likeness for the star players like Stephen Curry, LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kevin Durant, and some others who are popular.

Football sports - others are never bet on because they are not favorites while in sports betting even non-favorite teams are bet on such as minor league matches to make a profit.

So football betting will always be enjoyed even though sometimes upset is always there where the team that is bet on loses, but this is what I can do not only the favorite team of the minor league team sometimes I look for opportunities there.

Yes people do bets on  matches they do not enjoy - for example I have bet on hockey and cricket so many times despite not knowing any shit about the game and I have managed to win several of my bets there.

Whenever I want to run a parlay and I want to make a very long lists of bets I usually just pick random games both from sports like football, basketball and some other ones that I have never watched before but do know how they work; those type of parlay I usually stake the lowest amount allowed by the casino and just watch the ticket run and if at some point I’m satisfied with the cashout option I’m being offered I’ll end the game there.

That's a stupid act, if I did that I wouldn't gamble or make bets on sports that I don't like and for sports that I don't enjoy, we're not talking about favorite clubs, we're talking about a sport we don't like, so it's no use putting a needle in the sand, if we're looking for a prick ourselves.

Sports gambling requires some information before placing a bet, it is not the same as playing slots, so gamble on sports betting that we like to get enjoyment and good results.

I hate watching a club match that I do not fan sometimes I may have bet on them because of the analysis of their preview matches of the past, and at that, I may not enjoy watching them play but I still bet on such a club, so when I get bored watching such a team play I switch to another match or program until the total time play out.

So in essence, there is no need to watch those games and all that you will need is the luck and analysis of the clubs or teams you bet on.

Most of us will bet on sports we like to watch and enjoy the sport whoever wins. I do not like soccer but I always like good successful goal. I see those athletes hug each other as they celebrate achieving one point. Somehow betting on the favorite team makes sense to me but it's the Cricket sport that I have no patience in watching.

There are lots of people loving Cricket Sport, I don't mind how they like the game but it's none of my business. If they spend all their money wagering who wins a match, they must love gbetting and the sport.
