Topic: sports you do not enjoy - page 5. (Read 2258 times)

Football is the most popular sport that gamblers bet on, because football is more popular than other sport, since majority of people in different countries enjoy playing football. I bet on basketball but more on football since it is easier for my to analyze the game without too much effort. Also I watch the match and enjoy the fun making it more of interest to me than other sports.

In the aspect of not wanting to lose, this is inevitable, losing is part of gambling and we should accept it in good fate if such occurs.
Yea you're right, some people gamble but with carefulness so despite how they gamble they try as much as possible not to get extreme in the activity but though this is only achievable by those gamblers that are very disciplined and always in control of the game, losing ordinarily discourages many gamblers but some gamblers see it as a starting point for them to start chasing loss, they believe that relenting is a form of weakness and in reality this is where addiction comes in unknowingly to them.
As a gambler knowing when to give a break and when to continue helps you to control unexpected events that would have triggered you to become an irresponsible gambler.

People have different reasons for gambling so the reasons will determine whether they'll stick to betting on the perticular sports that they love or include the ones that they don't have interests in. I want to believe that gamblers that bets on sports that they're not familiar with are either in gambling to make money or they like to explore different types of sports to try their lucks on. On the other hand there are gamblers that likes to stick to the sports that they love and are familiar with the leagues, they can easily analyze the players and teams because they know their current forms. I don't explore much in sports bet so I mostly stick to football bets that I'm familiar with.

I honestly honestly the only sport among all i dont like it is the boxing. I just don't go down the fact that two people fight
Obviously also all the variants i don't know where they beat, excluding martial arts that have an romantic arts
clearly it is a subjective thing

Anytime I have a bet on a game it makes it more interesting no matter what sport the bet was placed on. I automatically take interest and try to familiarize myself with the rules if I plan on making a bet on a particular sport that I am not a big watcher of. Never know if I may become a huge fan of the sport.

Cricket, Rugby, Hockey, Table Tennis are a few sports that come to mind that currently I am not a big fan of and know very little about, but like I said above, if I ever planned to bet on these I would try to learn the rules before betting on them.

If you gonna ask me which sports is boring for me! i will definitely tell you that its Gymnasatics.
I know its art and sports in just one event but its for me.


Let me tell you this, One factor at the start is from which country you are!
Influence is a very big factor on this topic, for me where basketball is a big sports of the nation! boxing is one pride for our contrymen.
this is most enjoyable sports for me, add to it the taekwondo which my children is playing now.

Chess is one of the most boring sports in the world where 2 players are just sitting and reading each moves of hteir opponent.
But I cant, coz its my sports.

Sports i do not enjoy is the sport the other one enjoy the most

This is a difficult yet interesting question.

It is a fact, you have to be first passionate about the sport on which you scomemte and then place your scomemsse, if I had to play a game that I know nothing, it would be impossible for me to take any type of play but it is a normal thing , for this reason I never bet on tennis, a game that I don't know and that I do not paice to follow, that's why I'm away

I also think that analyzing your bets is necessary simply to get an idea of ​​how much money you can allocate for your game in the future. Simply because the manner and style of play, including the bet sizes, most likely become approximately the same or grow relatively slowly as the player gains experience. In my opinion, it is rare for anyone to play at a bookmaker with a gradual decrease in the bet size. But there are probably players whose life circumstances simply force them to reduce bets, or even just stop playing.

Well maybe because they treat it as a job and not something to have fun with. Maybe they are not enjoying and relaxed. Maybe they just know enough now to be invested in the sport without actually being interested genuinely. Eventually though, would they not just end up liking the sport? I can imagine that it would be difficult to keep emotions at bay when you are betting on a sports or on a specific team and then their performance is where your profit depends.

what are some of the things you do to protect yourself from betting to much?
are you profitable over the long run or you end up losing more often and in bigger amounts than winning?

besides analysis I'd say that keeping track of your bets with a diary is definitely help, this way you have reliable data to check your progress over time

I bet regularly and I must say that there are not many scometors who are attentive to their scomemsse, indeed they have fun playing gambling in the real term of the word, but I must say that the analysis helps to take results, or at least you It gives help more, which is good, there are those who bet on visual dogs for example, you must be insane to do such a thing

A sports bettor could try and experiment with doing that by spending a little bit of money and the results will show that it is not recommended to copy a bet from another person from a game that he have no knowledge at all. The most frustrating part here is if the results end up losing in a difference that is too big which could mean that he copied someone who might've also copied it from another.
There are very rare sports bettors now who really check the records and histories of the games and rely on them as their basis for why a team or a player will win that match. Most of the time they will just use the favorite odds that had been given by the sports bookie that they use. Let's not forget, that there's no assurance in betting for the favorite, especially in professional sports where every team or player can be as good as the other on a given day or night.

This is exactly the kind of gaming behavior of a player who considers himself experienced, in my opinion, is wrong. To rely on someone else's opinion in those sports that you do not understand, this is a manifestation of an irresponsible attitude to your game. I do not think that truly experienced players place bets simply after reading or watching content on games that they do not understand from some third-party experts or forecasters. This somehow suppresses your own game and does not bring such pleasure. But this is how it is in my opinion. However, there may be another point of view, I admit it.

Not much different from what you said, I am also a fan of one type of sport. in every bet I do not always watch it, especially the match schedule is broadcast early in the morning and I certainly can't watch all of them. well, so most of the matches that I observe or that are included in the betting list I can only wait for the final results of some of these matches.


IMO, not a few gamblers bet on several types of sports even though they don't really like / enjoy them or teams that are not favored. in some cases, we can bet on the underdog because one of the opposing teams is a rival of our favorite team. there are also those who don't care at all whatever type of sport it is, the most important thing is that they understand, are experienced and have insight into the sport, the most important thing is that they can get money from the team or sport that they are involved in their bets. finally, I'm sure it's the same with you. as I said at the beginning, of course not all matches or sports will be watched live. just imagine, you will lose a lot of time especially in football which has a normal duration of 2 × 45 minutes. if we watch 3 or 4 matches, how tired we are to spare time let alone try to analyze it. in conclusion, at least what you discussed in this thread has at least some similarities with me personally.

There are many gamblers that are vast in sports betting and they bet on different kids of sports games and that's also how often they are devoted in watching, reading and learning about the events and fixtures of those games. Although you are right that making guess on sports that one doesn't have knowledge about could lead to lose of more funds but some player are betting on those sports by using other players prediction.

That'll be an amazing experience,but my question is how do they get to fit in so well and adapt to almost every of the process involved in it.I usually see betting on sports that you don't know to be a stressful routine but it's looks enjoyable and relaxing to other gamblers.People give room to new methods of gaming/gambling patterns.They're literally different from each other but the excitement and  relaxation is gives is relatively unmatched.But it's best you concentrate and focus ahead on either of them.

But for me personally, I would rather avoid doing something like that because when I fail, I might be upset or disappointed, it better to try it myself even though there are many things I don't know about the sport, but at least I tried it myself and can evaluate it when I fail later.
This not about winning but about knowledge and experience, it impossible for us to just keep relying on the people around us when we want to bet on sport that we don't like, it should be noted that experience means lot.

Maybe that's the way you see it but that's not the way everybody will see it, even me. I see it differently because at times I purposely move to some sports I have a little knowledge about with no serious interest for fun but just to make the money from them. It happens if I realise that the odds in my favourite sports are averagely too low for me to be tying my money down, which prompts me to get the possible information of the team and balance things out to make an informed bet. The good part is that the result has not been so different from the ones I have interest in. Tell me, what's gross in that?

As they say, it's all about the interests of an individual, which will make them hate or dislike something that the majority loves. Football, or soccer for some, is the most famous and widely liked sport in the world, but some people find it boring just like you, and to be honest, to some extent, I agree with you. A football game where there aren't any star players playing, or there isn't much happening kinda gets boring at some point because you only see the players passing the ball here and there, and there aren't any good shots or corners, etc.

Being a sports lover and a person who has always loved watching and playing any sport, I don't particularly dislike any sport. However, there are some that I don't watch much because as @OgNasty said, they somehow bore me, and one of such sports is F1. I just can't watch a whole F1 race because I don't find it entertaining enough, for some reason.

I think sharing a booking code with your friend is a different case, of course most people always do this probably when they see their friends or love ones wining from a particular sport mean why they have no idea about how the sport works. you can actually decide to give it a trial maybe whenever time your friend makes prediction then you can ask him to share his booking code with you, is a normal thing you know not everyone that likes watching the event They played in their ticket. because not everyone that can withstand the pressure maybe if the game is not going the way you expected of course the pressure will be very much for you to withstand that's for those gamblers that always have the intention of making Money through gamble.
