Topic: Tension that comes on the last game/s. - page 9. (Read 3621 times)

The problem with cashout is that it is very unprofitable, it is not a "return of the bet" but a return of approximately 70% of what is at stake. Moreover, 70% is still a very good level. I remember someone showed a multi-bet on the forum where there was only one outcome left to win and asked - is it worth making a cashout? So, the math was something like this (the numbers are just to show the proportions): he could win a million if the 2.0 odds worked. It's logical to assume that the cashout should be 500k right? But he was offered to take something like 250k (which was already a big Xs for him).

For me, if you are not very sure about the last game, better cash out rather push your luck up until the end. But I can understand if some people will continue especially if they have very good feelings about their lineup. As long as you can accept the results afterwards, win or lose, it is on you, as it is your money in the first place.

Whether you gamble for fun or not, the joy of gambling is winning and I know the tension that comes when you are about winning a bet and it's remaining just the last event in your ticket, like you will be monitoring the event from beginning to the end and that is how your heart will be beating very serious especially when it involves a huge winning. But I don't like the idea of monitoring the event I've accumulated what I mostly do is that I will check the time the last event will end then after which I will check the whole events at once except if I have the feeling of cashing out on events that has already played accordingly.

There's one thing I believe in gambling and that is luck, if you will win a bet you gonna win whether you cash out or not because I have placed bets that I was scared of the whole events playing accordingly and after I did a cash out, all the events still played according to predictions. Before the features of cash out was introduced in betting more especially in sports, people were still winning without cash outs so gambling is just luck as I said earlier but if you wish to be checking up on the events as they're playing one after another then I suggest betting same ticket twice such that one of the ticket will be for cash out while the other would be allowed to run through the last event on the ticket.

Most cashout are like a temptation (yes temptation). Let's say you bet to win a potential amount of $1,000,000,000 and just 2 games were remaining, then they gave you a cashout of $50,000. Will you cash out the game?
Well to me, cashing out the game depends on the team I played, if I noticed that the team will not perform well to make me win the full money I will cashout but if my instincts tell me to keep the games then I will not cashout. And that's risky because of by any chance you lost the bet, you might regret your actions . However, if you were given cash out and you refused to take it, it means you already know the risks you are about to take (whichmeans, winning is not guaranteed).

What if the last games comes unexpectedly... alright just kidding  , you have the chance to take  the cashout (if it's really  worth it) then just take it and move on with trying your lucks with other games it's better to have part of profits than loosing everything to a single bet, It's not about risking, its about maximizing your profit( with the profit you could try tens of other lucks which might yield much more than what you anticipated).
Hence, I know someone might talk about risking, forget about risking   the moment you placed that bat you already risk something but if you aren't bother and you have a positive feeling about the remaining game either last or second to last(whichever...), you can let it be who knows it might be your lucky day . Its actually a hard choice but it's good to always stay on the safer side.

Can clarify this statement because I don’t get what you are trying to express here. Why you feel tension on bets that you place didn’t place successfully or some sort(confusing) compared to all-in bet.

Typically, all-in bet is always the most nerve wrecking bets among all bets unless your bankroll is just a penny when you do all-in but assuming you will bet all your bankroll immediately then this is more intense than the one you are describing.

Can you clarify whether the bet you are describing is a mistake bet which you place significant amount?

I think many of us have made all-in bets and that is something that is very Scary , but I Really do it when I know I'm going to lose and that I have no other option , that is, I do it when I am already resigned, it would not Surprise me at all , but sometimes when I am like that I win , and wow that is where I say that in the game one is under any type of Possibility of doing things right and doing them the way they have to happen , sometimes the casino, its house advantage is not so bad , we Know that they can and will win but we have a very good option even if we are resigned.

Last bet on normal game usually doesn’t provide a lot of tension because it usually just waste bet however all-in bet when player is already at huge loss can give a tension too but not the same tension on the topic because there’s already a choice to take profit or continue risking.

Nope. It's completely opposite   I may be wrong but most players try to reduce the risk and therefore it hits their winnings hard. Most choose the favorite and make a "safe" bet (with such bets they only remove themselves from even a simple doubling) instead of at least taking the favorite's victory with a handicap of -1.
Roughly speaking, to achieve x100 it is much more realistic to make two successful bets with a coefficient of 10.0 than many bets with a coefficient of 1.2.-1.4. It's just mathematics.

I have experienced this numerous times and still don't understand this...
it's it's usually between the first or last game that spoil the parlays maybe because of pressure of how you will start the parlay or how you will end it...maybe just bad luck at play

But I have come to a conclusion that the reason for this first/last game failure is usually greed!! We are always trying to fatten the odds when we already have enough but still push our luck till nothing is left.

To me it all depend on the amount of money being staked, most time may feel more tensed when they know that the amount they staked is not something can afford to lose . Because they know that getting that amount of money back will be hard , so they will be tensed. But is natural for one to feel tensed when something that is valuable to you is at stake.

The tension that I notice I get from gambling is when I mistakenly did not make a significant bet (did not click or instead of bet cancel bet that I have already placed or run out of time to place a bet), my potential bets loses, I did not lose money, but realise that easily would have lost and was a second away from it. That is the moment when my heart starts to beat faster, cheeks starts to turn red. Last bet, all-in did not give me any noticeable feeling, but when I was one step close to losing and by miracle had my money saved, that is when I feel tension and emotions.

If you tend to gamble for entertainment but gambling depends on your losing or winning but the tendency to earn extra money in the meantime increases, then the fear of losing money starts working in you and you keep losing. In luck-controlled gambling, it is very unusual to win continuously and it is also unusual to lose, but you should control yourself while playing and refrain from over-gambling. When you feel stress while gambling, chances of losing can increase so you should gamble with a combination of particular time and limited amount of money and keep yourself from getting more chances of winning to keep yourself tension free.

Even for a gambler who is playing to have fun, they get their fun when they are winning, it's only in almost impossible cases we see a gambler loosing and yet still having fun while loosing, basically almost every Gambler wishes to win at almost every time except for a few times when they loose they become agitated. It's never been the wish of a gambler to loose their games but it's an inevitable experience which causes the gamblers to experience too many moods almost at one because their money is involved and they are loosing it. If a gambler is having wins in a row you se that at that point it turns out a different games and they are in a very different and happy mood from the former.
