Personally, I never put a team or some to my blacklists. Moreover, if it is about under-performance of the team playing in certain seasons. Because sometimes, there will be a change after all. A team may play badly at that time but they may take the evaluation to get better performance in the next game. In this case, we can see the differences. But if it is about always playing bad, I think I really don't like one of the football teams in my country because of the performance and also how they play sometimes only putting forward the emotion, playing bad, and supporters are often out of control  Sad

Personally I think there are some arguments to be made about having a blacklist of teams or players, I know that the first impression is that it doesn't really make a lot of sense especially since most people lose over the long term when they make sports bets, however I think it makes sense especially when we see a lot of volatility in the performance of a particular team or player to the point it becomes impossible to predict what it is going to be their performance against a particular opponent, so it is better to avoid teams or players like that.

If you see that there's no point of following or betting to players or teams that you usually follow better start to understand that it's your money that's more important, with a lots of available team or players to select you don't need to tie yourself and keep losing your bets, there are teams that really hard to predict even you completed your assessment, you still ends up messing with your money.

A good sign to sort things out and forget about following those kind of team/player.
Also while we are talking about blacklisting teams there are also some conditions to be reached if you are planning to place sports bet on a professional level, for example if you think the odds that a team are being given are better than the odds you calculate on your own but if the difference is small then it is not a good idea to make a bet there even if you have an edge, after all the money we have at our disposal is limited and it is better to wait for better opportunities where to put our money.

There are some circumstances that cant really be avoided specially if you are really a fan of a certain team or player but as years goes by where roster or performance had changed
which is the reason on why they do able to commit such continous lose and as a bettor and having that common sense then you will normally be switching up on other
teams which would really be giving out those winning chances.I dont really believe about on being a die hard fan to be a die hard bettor.You wont really be
putting up your money into something that you do know that high likely lose compared to other teams that it would fought.

I don't have a personal blacklist teams, and I just take down notes all of my favorite teams on different sports since I believe, every team work hard so they can compete, its just that better teams are blocking their way on winnings, so I have to go with the best and the winners there's no need to blacklist those who are on the bottom list.
That is good. At least, you can know if that team in your notes change their performance in the next match, so you can consider choosing that team for placing your bet. Maybe they have a bad performance in the last match and the other match, but I believe that the team will want to change their performance by using the other strategy that will help them to win. Who knows, in the next month, that team can really change and have a big chance to win and lift their position.

I always avoid to place a bet on Lucas Lacko (tennis player) this year 2021.
He is in blacklist Cheesy at least for this year but sometimes I have gambled against him...

https://www.atptour.com/en/players/lukas-lacko/l797/overview Just have a look on this season.
He has lost like 90% of tournaments at first match, and the other 9% after the second match.

That is definitely someone that you do not want to bet for but it seems like a great bet you can make against him, that kind of regularity is great, obviously casinos must know this as well and they surely offer low odds for the opponent of that player, but a sure win is always welcome especially when it is so difficult to make money with sport bets thanks to the house edge the casino gives themselves on each game especially when we talk about games or players that are not really well known.

Eventhough we know how bad the players is we cannot still assure to have sure win since there are sudden unexpected win every game since sometimes player had a lucky moment so maybe try to see the condition of a player if you want to bet them since if you are not sure at that time since you didn't know his opponent better pass and bet on another player to minimize the risk of lossing.

when it comes to the team, maybe I don't have a blacklist.

But I have a blacklist of football leagues you should avoid.

1. Bosnian Premier League
Reason: Too many matches are beyond reason, even if an analyst is asked to analyze.

They will be confused because the matches in the league are very difficult for us to predict

2. Hong Kong Premier League & Hong Kong First Division
Reason: Lots of bookies have already arranged matches even before the game is running (you will feel that if you gamble in this league)

Decided to not bet this whole fking Australian Basketball league anymore.
Whats happening there is absolute rigged bs.

In back to back games I have the pre game favourite leading middle of the 3rd quarter just to catch a monster run.

3 days ago, leading by 3 and in the next 6 min there is a 3:34 run, 31 point difference in 6 minutes, yeah right. Now different game/teams leading by 1 and in the next 5 minutes a 0:24 run. Winning the 1st 25:15 just to lose the next 3 quarters 13:24 , 8:30 and 17:26 .
So 38:80 in 3 quarters after starting 25:15, as the favourite.


Hard to believe this happens on a normal game to the favourite (playing at home).

I don't have many teams on my blacklist but recently when I was betting on CBA, which is basically the Chinese version of NBA, I felt like a few games were rigged and after I googled I saw some articles which actually stated about match-fixing in some matches in past so I decided that I am not going to bet on any CBA match. No particular team I want to point but some strange things happen in those games and honestly, the best value is to bet on underdog and cash before 4th quarter where a comeback almost every time happens.

I would say that the league is good but some referees might be involved in these match-fixing scandals, still I am only speculating and this is based on my own observation. Apart from CBA, I usually avoid table tennis betting because of how explosive the games are, and favorites lose more matches in table tennis than any other sport.

Maybe we add one team or more to our personal blacklist because the team can not perform good or we do not like the player or the coach. But somehow, if the team can make a change for their player and overhauled the lineup, whether we still add them on our list or remove the team from our blacklist.
Yes and adding to your blacklist means two things, either you think that the teams or players are just not worth betting on which then actually opens the opportunity to bet against them and get value. The other reason might be because you think some teams tank matches which is actually a concern in e-sports more than anywhere else and I have seen some pity games myself. I don't have a blacklist of my own but there are few teams I just avoid betting on or against them.

Also, at times, a single player in a team could make the whole team look unprofessional or bad players. So instead, I place them on scrutiny and in most cases, I don't bet on them.
Indeed because a single player tanking a game can bring the value of the whole team down. I mostly bet on tennis though apart from e-sports and I feel like tennis is actually one of the cleanest sport.

A lot of Asian eSports teams are on my blacklist. Its just weird to watch them under perform from time to time(especially DOTA2) so many random new teams just show up out of no where and beat the top teams like it was childs play. I avoid betting on NBA regular season as well. So much random stuff happens. You just never know if your team will just go in a turnover frenzy and gift the opponents free points. It is mind boggling sometimes.
You are spot on there! I don't think only Asian teams do that though because I have seen some of the NA teams performing below average and most of the games are played on almost beginners level. I remember watching Mad Lions vs Rogue warriors in League of Legends, LEC and I could not believe my eyes how Rogue can lose a game being 6k gold ahead with a composition that scales well and having 3 dragons on their side.

Esports are still lacking behind in terms of exposure and quality in some games, although there are some good teams you know will always perform well. I will list a few good teams whom you can bet on without being worried about the level of gameplay, these are top-tier teams according to me.

DOTA2: Nigma, OG, VG, PSG LGD and sometimes Liquid.
LOL: Damwon, IG, Top Sports, T1 and Gen.G
CSGO: Na'vi, Astralis and I personally like EG

It's always that way, even we select or pick blacklisted team or players within our list, but once that team got re-grouped and have a much

better chances it will surely removed from the list and start following the team/player again.

Maybe we add one team or more to our personal blacklist because the team can not perform good or we do not like the player or the coach. But somehow, if the team can make a change for their player and overhauled the lineup, whether we still add them on our list or remove the team from our blacklist. I think it can make the blacklist team that we have will be changed from time to time.



I haven't for once decided to blacklist any team because I believe they have the chances of doing better in another game.

Also, at times, a single player in a team could make the whole team look unprofessional or bad players. So instead, I place them on scrutiny and in most cases, I don't bet on them.

Giving them another chance if you do follow their stats is quite a wise move, there are chances that the team will bounce back and bring you

the win that you are aiming.

Not just a single game but there are many to come just make sure to keep doing your research finding the right info about the team/players that you are following.

This year both Juventus and Leverkusen deserve a special mention in my up-to-date personal blacklist: I think I lost at least 10 bets because of these two teams combined! Worst lost bet happened on March 21st when I was hoping to go for the jackpot but Leverkusen lost 3-0 with Hertha and smashed a bet where I picked 9 results out of ten correctly!

With blacklisted teams I meant teams that do fishy stuff, like strange odds pregame, strange results, strange runs in-game.

Next add to my list: Taiwanese basketball in general

Right now the best team ( 27:1 record) loses at home vs last place (5:24 record) .

Such things happen but 1st place had 1,45 or more in odds pregame. That is ultra fishy, especially when the other team (Pauian) also played 24 hours ago.

Those teams played 1 week ago with odds of 1.08 for 1.place team (as away team).

Everything is random and sometime when I do remember that it isn't really worth to make out some bets on a particular player or team then I wouldn't tend to go ahead.
I don't have personal blacklist but I do have some hunch anytime if these players do suck or not because you can always check out numbers and about its performances.
Those who do lose everytime will somewhat be included on that list but not literally.You can just point out when you do already see the selection.

I'm just not sure about continuing to blacklist a team. Indeed, there are many sports teams from many sports that exist at least to make me disappointed but that is only a moment of emotion or anger, because for the bet of the next match I could just select it again hoping for developments to occur. But yes, even that sometimes continues to upset me but I'm not really sure not to bet on that team sometime in the future. Because in fact, every team has players who change every season, it makes me believe a team will definitely change and I shouldn't blacklist it.

Most players have gone through a lot just to build a strong foundation to put up a team so I don't think it's a good idea to blacklist some of them. It's fine if we'll not bet on them but I think it would be too much to blacklist them. Let's give chance to those who are trying to prove their capability and stand out in their careers. Avoid them but don't drag them down.

It might seem inappropriate to blacklist a team as, the resources avail to a team and the quality of players go a long  way I determining how they perform in certain games but, it becomes a necessary guide and pointer to  point you a direction in what to avoid or do when placing bets on certain teams. Thats why I took out a few minutes to scam through some of the replies to build up a feeling about some replies on some teams.

Well, for me, I generally avoid most of the France league 2 teams. They are just filled with average teams and make predictions very difficult for me. So, the France league 2 teams are generally out of place for me in gambling.

Even though I personally don't have a blacklist I get your point as I know there are some teams that gambling on them is too risky since they are pretty bad in one game and in the other game they just play extremely good which makes it almost impossible to place any safer bets unless you like losing bets/money.

I don't have a blacklist because I don't place any bets on the teams/sports that I don't know or follow them, and it's just around 4-5 teams on every league and I totally disregard any other team that I'm unfamiliar with, so in a way you could say I have a whitelist of teams that I use to place bet on sports.
I have not really thought about it but you are right, teams that have too much volatility on their performance are a pain to bet on as one game they could play great and it seems like they must win their next match and then they play horribly the next match, then you think they will lose their next game against a good team and then they play brilliantly, that is the kind of team you do not want to bet for or against as you have no way to predict the results accurately.
i havent been into sports but i can imagine the anoyance of that team your guys are talking .
the quality of the team is acceptable if this is crypto trading but it isnt and volatility is not needed here but stability are .
the next time we came across to this type of team we know what to do , blacklist them as soon as possible to prevent more looses .

If it's professional sports then none.
Remember, they are there hired from being licensed professional of that certain game and they can still win a game that may surprise the betting system.
For example, the Houston Rockets just days ago.
I've tried to dig deep the internet to look for analysts that can explain a winning chance for them from 20 losing streak but found nothing.
All of them are betting against the Rockets. Did my research about who will play and their opponent which also has 8 losing streak.
I took the risk and bet for them and it won.

There's a lesson there.
High stakes, high profits.

I know is not a team, is more like a whole martial art or sport if you will. Unless of course you decide to bet that the "right thing" will happen. This was described on Freakonomics.

Since the pandemic, the results of football matches are unpredictable, many weak teams have managed to beat the strong teams.
Therefore, there are several teams that I blacklisted for a while, especially the team from the Bundesliga, which made me lose a lot of money.
There are often draw results in the Bundesliga, even in recent weeks the team from the relegation zone has managed to beat a strong team.
Only Bayern have predicted the outcome until now, the rest of the other teams in the Bundesliga for me are very difficult to predict.

Everything in which I'm not pro, is on my blacklist. I'm betting only soccer and baseball, because I know what I'm doing, now players and teams, so the probability to get lost because of my poor knowledge is minimal.

There is no reason to separate some teams in football, for example. Just some sport activities, like volleyball and so on.

The way the Broncos entered the New South Wales competition reducing the Queensland Cup to a poor mans second string competition has always left a sour taste in my mouth.

Manchester United is just too big a brand name - same with its players.

So this goes for any game I bet in right? If that's so then I would like to place my blacklist on perhaps... CLG's League of Legends team. They are a bunch of chokers and compared to the giants of NA, they are nothing but boogers. They had a fairly equal chance at becoming great when they had Doublelift in the team and it could've stayed that way if it weren't for the weak-minds that thought it's much better to drop him off.

When it comes to chokers when it comes to E-sports then in dota2 then i would really be always crossing out those chinese team.They are only good at initial rounds or qualifying rounds but when it comes to
elimination on where choke gaming is mostly happening.For real physical sports then im not much of on setting those personal blacklist.

There's legitimately too many losses for me to name, but I remember one instance when I had a 1.2x bet for Clippers ML and they choked a 10 point lead at halftime.

It's not the Clippers' fault but on how you placed your bet.

1.2x Bet? Even with star-studded players or dream team players, I don't think some will place a bet for them on that odds.

Risking an amount for a few bucks in return. Maybe change the way you bet and keep in mind that low odds don't mean you are safe.

I really hate betting on the Clippers.

They are simply so inconsistent, but they are good enough that the moneyline odds offered on them are very low.

There's legitimately too many losses for me to name, but I remember one instance when I had a 1.2x bet for Clippers ML and they choked a 10 point lead at halftime.

But still, nothing close to a blacklist - just a team that I would avoid as much as possible if the odds aren't fantastic.

I don't have blacklisted teams, but there is some teams that I avoid betting on. For example in EPL, I rarely bet on Arsenal or Man Utd games. I don't trust in them because they already cost me too much money.
I'm not sure that such blacklist is good idea. Personally, I prefer to follow recent result and performance of team insteadvof blaclisting them for whole season. If recently team play inconsistent, suffered few losses,I avoid bet on them even if they are considered as favorites. Like recently, it wasn't smartest idea to bet on Liverpool.
Any way, even if I don't trust in certain team, I still bet on other markets like under/over, spread and etc.
Im avoiding ML kind of bets most of the time and same as yours im a bit fan of betting with those under/over etc. which i do find it more interesting than on just simply to choose on whose gonna win on a certain game.

When it comes to blacklist then i dont have one but i do have teams in mind that should really be avoided but doesnt mean that they would really be excluded for my selection on the entire season.

Changes and performances will really be different from time to time this is why keeping yourself updated would really be that crucial but there are really some situations which you can really make
out or excluding a certain team.Most of the time it do really involves emotion in part of the selection.

All of Bundesliga. I love watching Bundesliga and it is a great league and I like it, but please go ahead and try to put 3 games in a multi and try to win that, in Bundesliga if you do that every week, you will maybe end up winning 3 or 4 times the whole season, probably maybe once. That is why I do not play there at all.

Go ahead and play on Serie A for example, play on Milan, Inter and Juventus to win on the same week, you will win many times, play on Real Madrid and Barcelona to win, you will win many times, there are many leagues like that but when you do it on Bundesliga each team wins on a different week and you barely ever get to win a multi when you combine games. That is why I have deleted all of Bundesliga from my bets, I haven't gambled on them for a while now, and I think I will keep doing that, even when I do not gamble and look at scores I realize I should continue.

I do not have teams or athletes on my blacklist as I do not watch the sports very often. If I do not know about the team or the sportsmen, I will skip it and change the channel to watch the other entertainment. But I guess that will be difficult to choose as we need to be a fan of one type of sports or watch that sports, so we know which team or athletes do not have better skills. Maybe you do not have to watch the sports if you do not like the teams or athletes.
LOL Michellee I think you didn't understand what Hydrogen was talking about. He wasn't talking about watching sports LOL but about betting on them... There are some teams which are highly inconstant in their results and some of them could even be suspected of deliberately doing that to cheat and to get money from opposite bets.
I understand what Hydrogen was talking. Let me explain for a little.
If you place the bet for the team or athletes, you will want to watch them perform in the match, and you will not miss that. That is the first.
Second, if I do not have a blacklist team or athletes, I can watch or bet on any of them, but I will not watch them play and place the bet for them if I do not like them.
Third, I do not know much about sports betting, so if I place the bet or watch the match, I will watch or place the bet for the team or athletes I knew before.
So when you want to watch that match or place a bet, you should have knowledge or at least you know about that team or athletes because that is what you should have before you bet on them or watch them.
I hope you understand.

And besides i enjoy having a cool bets in crucial games.
I dont blacklist any teams, but I usually prevent tennis and hockey for my bets. As even the lowest odds can always be changed on this game especially with tennis that it can turn the table. However, bear in mind that those teams that has low performance can be change and win too depends on which opponent will be their match.

easy penalty for the home team. The second and third division is where the most match-fixing happens. too much drama in the Indonesian football league.

Blacklist? Even the worst possible team shouldn't be treated that way.

Come on. We can only see great odds if there's the worst team involved. A good opportunity for those risk-takers or always playing with great odds (above @3 for example).

I already won several times in @5 odds and above in a Moneyline so no way I will treat any teams, on any sports, as a blacklisted team. But obviously, I'll take high odds depends on my analysis of the match.
Absolutely, I may agree with you on this, sometimes the lower team often win with higher odds surprisingly, so basically saying they are not good is not inappropriate. Sometimes, they win with the big club while playing in a professional way, the major problem with them is consecutive inconsistent winnings, meanwhile the others only slags maybe once or twice.

I don't quite get the rationale behind blacklisting a team. In sport betting, you just analyze the odds and each player and team's statistics, performance, and so on. It seems to me personally blacklisting a team is not an objective way to do betting. After all, a team is just a name or a franchise or company. The players, coaches, staff, managers, and even owners could change anytime. Some leave, some enter, some switch to other teams, and so forth.

As regards your personal experiences, perhaps you're just disappointed that you lost your bets on them on such terms. Get over them.
The reason that OP put there is that the odds are inconsistent which meant that there is a possibility that there is a rigging in the bets and the players are throwing the game. Or maybe the quote above is right, that OP was just bitter at his/her losses that he/she blacklisted the team. Blacklisting might make you miss out on some good bets in the future in that team or against that team.

Whether there is actually match fixing or throwing in those games is beyond our knowledge. What is certain is that actual game results do not always agree with our predictions. Even a huge favorite with as low as 1.01 odds could lose. Sports bettors are always aware of that.

If OP is this onion-skinned as far as game results vis-à-vis his/her analysis, prediction, or bet are concerned, he/she might end up blacklisting each and every team in his/her chosen sports. After all, every team and player have their disappointing moments.

Here you can share teams who are on your personal backlist.

I just added Hungkuk womans volleyball team (Korean Volleyball).

Even odds pregame, 1st set going from 3:1 to 6:25 and next set down 12:5 already again, total throw/fix.
2 days ago Hungkuk won against the same team 3:1 while dominating most sets.

Even worse is Kopenhagen basketball team. I once had them +40 points pregame, middle of the 3rd quarter down by 3 points and at the end losing by 44. -41 in 15 minutes, just wow.


On my black list is also the American woman basketball team. Last world cup or something they played China and I had China +49 .
After 3 quarter the game was 20-25 points and USW crushed China the last quarter.
Up 47 points with 15sec to play USA got a rebound and instead of dribbling down the clock they shot again, of course a 3.
That was the worst sportsmanship I have ever seen., leading by 47 and attending 1 more shot.

"Yay, we beat them by 50 instead of only 47".



I have some,the one that comes immediately to mind is Forest Green from lower English divisions.They needed a win to stay on top and were playing against the team last in the standings and they lost 3-1 in that game.I am totally amazed how a team which had barely scored 20 goals in more than 20 games played scored easily 3 in just one game and against one of the teams leading the table at that time.

There are favorites that I can't ignore betting for even if the odds of winning are low.

Even though I personally don't have a blacklist I get your point as I know there are some teams that gambling on them is too risky since they are pretty bad in one game and in the other game they just play extremely good which makes it almost impossible to place any safer bets unless you like losing bets/money.

I don't have a blacklist because I don't place any bets on the teams/sports that I don't know or follow them, and it's just around 4-5 teams on every league and I totally disregard any other team that I'm unfamiliar with, so in a way you could say I have a whitelist of teams that I use to place bet on sports.

I don't have a personal list. But maybe I have teams that I don't like to beat because they are very inconsistent.

I know that some of the games might be fix, but if there are no proof then we can't say for certain that a certain team has thrown the game itself. Maybe the team are just unlucky. Last time I bet on basketball, I have my team leading by 23 points, but they lost in the end. But I don't see them throwing the game. Anyhow, let's hear more experience sports bettor here.
There are different types of blacklists, what the OP is asking is for blacklists of teams you do not bet for, but more than that I have a list of people or teams I never bet against, those are the kind of people or teams that no matter what happens and how bad they have played a particular match they can always make a comeback, I have lost too many times when betting against them so while I could or not bet on their favour I make sure to never be against them because I know losing money is almost a sure thing.

There's tons of favorites that let me down recently in the NBA but I don't have plans in putting them in a blacklist since they gave me a lot of wins before and could just be having a bad shooting day. I think the reason why I don't put them in the list is because sometimes I find a bit of value on those teams as bookies slowly shift the odds close to a 50-50.

Are we really just have to stick at those best-performing teams when betting? Their odds aren't even worth placing a bet. 1.2, 1.5. 1.7? Is this your preferred lines or odds OP in ML?
Handicap is probably his preferred markets since he had two underdog handicaps out of the three bets that he shared.

I don't have a blacklisted team, because when making a bet I focus more on the odds offered by the bookies and even if there is an inconsistent team that often loses results on bets, I will prefer the opposing team in betting.
Liverpool was included in the list where I would choose their opposing team because of their inconsistency in several matches and some defeats actually happened at Anfield.
But this will change when you see the team start to show better performance, I think in sports it will be like that it could be that they are bad in an appearance today but their next match is improving, so making a blacklist team is not the way to get out of losing in choosing bets.

I lose a bunch of money from that match-fixing. I've lost my trust in that team, branding especially on the players of that team because of that. Besides Mineski I don't have any teams on my blacklist, It's just they tainted my very good expectation for them on that series as they climb up.
your anger are double because you are betting for that team with real money but for those that are just a fan of that team but are not into betting they will also feel bad because they see that their idols are not doing thier best , it was like they wasted the support given for all of those years of following them  just because of that one single match  . that teams deserve a place on our black list but for those teams that we support and yet loose but didnt throw a game , we can give them a few more chance and see if they will improve thier plays or not  .

I don't have a blacklist but whitelisted some underdog teams that are delivering great results. I placed bets on Portland Trail Blazers and they have won 3 'in a row' out of 4 last matches. I never had faith in them when they always lost whenever I placed a bet on them (may be my bad luck) but their recent performance left me speechless and I decided to whitelist them. If you whitelist a team and it performs good with a 7 or 8:10 ratio where 7 to 8 wins every 10 matches becomes possible, then the odds are good enough to cover the losses and pay us good profits too.

Basically I have blacklisted these two clubs from my agenda because of some inappropriate losses, these two clubs sometimes receive an unexpected lost at home ground repeatedly in sportbet.

Arsenal Tula of Russian league usually loose a game against the lower clubs in Russia while still performing poorly during the game,

Naxxar Lion on the other hand is a Maltan league loosing mercilessly with same underdogs, currently now the club is situated at the relegation level in Malta division II still performing poorly.

These two clubs are currently on my blacklist for those reasons above.

I don't set any personal blacklist but I do have some least priority or not really that on my list for me to bet on but though there are times which things could be changed

depending on several factors that's why I don't really put them on complete ignore list because even these teams would really have the chance.

Just like on NBA where I do have several teams which I don't consider on betting up because of those common reasons.

No teams blacklisted ATM.   Smiley

I do have a few gyms and trainers borderline blacklisted for the sport of mixed martial arts however.

JacksonWink  They failed to evolve and maintain pace with progress. Most of their fighters left for other gyms and trainers. The ones who didn't are racking up impressive losing streaks. Aside from their core group of approximately 4 athletes still competing successfully, their win loss record is very bad.

Team Alpha Male  Gym owner Urijah Faber preaches fighters don't need good coaches, they only need to believe in themselves. This flawed mentality has led to their gym declining. Going from one of the most successful and respected in the sport, to the opposite.

These observations can be useful in gambling. Example.

Kenan Song (team jacksonwink) lost by KO in round 1 last saturday at UFC on ESPN 21 Derek Brunson vs Kevin Holland.

Yadong Song (team alpha male) lost by decision on march 6th 2021 at UFC 259 Blachowicz vs Adesanya.

Gym affiliations won't determine the outcome of 100% of fights but some of them do have lopsided win loss records which can be useful in determining the outcome.

It's a personal grudge just because I used to support this player and wherever team he's at. This is from NBA, and we all know that James Harden is one of the most famous superstar in NBA from 2015 to now. Used to really root for the guy but his attitude and weak defense and team play made me avoid any team that he's at just because. Though he is a great offensive player no doubt, that's not only what this game needs in order for a team to win. I've had lots of bets on Rockets when he's still on that team, and man on occasions that I bet for them, it's always a loss due to the guy not doing good decisions on the court.

That was the worst sportsmanship I have ever seen., leading by 47 and attending 1 more shot.

Thats not a reason to blacklist that I'd really rate, the team themselves might see it as negligent not to provide the audience with that shot and action right up until the last moment of the game.     Also not playing fully could be taken as a negative, some bets rely on score difference or very specific bets on score changing at the game end.     Main reason I think teams dont just play safe is to give a feeling theres nothing left in this game, a bored audience is really bad for the sport overall and in theory both teams want to avoid overall damage from poorly played games.

My blacklist is just erratic results, most obvious candidate is highly rated teams falling apart in unexplained ways.   An underdog team who drop out is normal, the odds reflect that but the best teams who fail without warning is a disaster as people bet more usually.

For teams in the NBA, the team that is in my personal blacklist is the Houston Rockets. They are in a long losing streak, there's no way I would bet on them even at handicap as they are too inconsistent, but that blacklist shouldn't be forever as even how bad the team is, they can still improve in the long run.

I am talking about teams with repeatedly strange outcomes/results or odds.
Okay, I get what you are saying, that is why I said that it will be difficult to make a blacklist. But what seems to be the problem with teams that have strange outcomes/results? I mean there must be a pattern to that and the odds you can just bet smaller amount if you feel like the odds are going to be big or bet a little bigger when the odds are smaller.

I would never put a team in my blacklist, what I do if I don't like them is I just bet against them, simple as that.
I hope we are talking about gambling here since we are in the gambling section.

When we bet, we just bet on the better team to win against a weaker team, so if we know that a certain team is weak, then it will give us an advantage if we bet against them. For me, this is purely entertainment and business, I'm not a kind of a die hard fan or a consistent hater of a certain team.

It is difficult to put a team on a blacklist especially if you are not that familiar in the game not to mention that almost all teams can get some points and there is no consistent losers. But if I were to put an blacklist, maybe I would put teams that are consistently on the lower end of the season.

I don't really have any tbh. I mostly bet on eSports and I've never really experienced much of an issue that I'd blacklist a team so that I won't ever bet on them. I mean, yes, I've seen throws here and there plus k/d's that could've honestly gone better but I don't really see that enough as a reason for me to blacklist a team. Might actually be a bit different of an issue in irl sports though. Had my fair share of them, but didn't really concentrate much on others and just bet on who won/lost the match. I just choose my team on whether they're strong or weak and play around that, and that's about it.

I don't have a personal list. But maybe I have teams that I don't like to beat because they are very inconsistent.

I know that some of the games might be fix, but if there are no proof then we can't say for certain that a certain team has thrown the game itself. Maybe the team are just unlucky. Last time I bet on basketball, I have my team leading by 23 points, but they lost in the end. But I don't see them throwing the game. Anyhow, let's hear more experience sports bettor here.

Here you can share teams who are on your personal backlist.

I just added Hungkuk womans volleyball team (Korean Volleyball).

Even odds pregame, 1st set going from 3:1 to 6:25 and next set down 12:5 already again, total throw/fix.
2 days ago Hungkuk won against the same team 3:1 while dominating most sets.

Even worse is Kopenhagen basketball team. I once had them +40 points pregame, middle of the 3rd quarter down by 3 points and at the end losing by 44. -41 in 15 minutes, just wow.


On my black list is also the American woman basketball team. Last world cup or something they played China and I had China +49 .
After 3 quarter the game was 20-25 points and USW crushed China the last quarter.
Up 47 points with 15sec to play USA got a rebound and instead of dribbling down the clock they shot again, of course a 3.
That was the worst sportsmanship I have ever seen., leading by 47 and attending 1 more shot.

"Yay, we beat them by 50 instead of only 47".
