This discussion is mostly about sporting events, for instance, football.

Do you consider gamblers who bet on fewer games that they can watch to be gambling more for fun than to make money?

My answer
It is a yes for me, because fun is not just in betting on these games, but following up with these games by watching them contributes to the fun you intend to have. If you bet on so many games across many leagues that have kick-off times clashing, then you are obviously betting with more intention to make money than have fun because there is no way you are going to watch all these games at the same time.

What do you think? Is it possible for a gambler with a long bet slip to be gambling for fun?

Yes! Many people, like me, were already passionate about the sport they follow before they started betting, so betting on them is just a complement to the fun, because rooting for a team you like and winning money is much better.

There are also people who bet online, so watching the game live on television, for example, gives them much more information about the outcome of the game and a team's potential to win, which can help them make a better bet before the game ends.

There are also those who bet in favor of one result, but root for the other... I know a friend who has done this. According to him, the reason is simple: Either he wins money or his favorite team wins the match, in both scenarios he ends the game happy.

There is a second intention as a gambler, when there is a better chance then they will enter into their multi bet.

For fun and also to make money if betting more.

Maybe there is a thought... We watch the game watching + betting then it is called having fun... If we bet more on a clashing match then that's money-making intent? Depending on their clear goals every bettor wants to make money even when losing this is just fun.

So I bet more even though the matches are aired together, it doesn't matter what I see at the end.

To start with, in general, I don't believe people gamble for the fun of it. I think they do so as a means of increasing their earnings/income. As for a gambler with a long bet slip, it's obvious they're super determined to win something out of their activities and that's what informs many to expand their picks. They just want more out of little. So, for these ones there's nothing like gambling being fun or leisure. It's all business
I gamble for fun because I prefer to gamble for fun. I lost $10 last week and that made me increased my betting amount this week to $20. I have not done this since many months ago. In fact I have not done such this year. Luckily I won today's game and I earn $7 in profit. I can afford to risk and lose up to $30 weekly, but the highest I have gone for this year is $20 which is today. I do go for $10 if it is not parley. But if it is parley, I can reduce it to $2 to $5. I gamble because of my presence on this forum also, to have more knowledge about casinos and sport betting. The experience that can let me post better on this forum but I see it also as fun. But casinos are more entertaining than sport betting. I do not like to lose while betting but it is still fun if I do not go beyond my gambling budget.

Having long picks in one bet slip doesn't guarantee their success in gambling Whether they are determined or not, an ambler might be lucky, or they might not be in the log slip. In the right sense what should push a gambler to include more games in his slip should be the fact that they are not satisfied with low adds and want a big win instead of a small win. Determination shouldn't be forced to do that. In this context, determination feels like assurance and certainty of their games in gambling. Let them not be disappointed out of 10 bets none would they win if they continued with long betting slips.

Do you consider gamblers who bet on fewer games that they can watch to be gambling more for fun than to make money?

I think you are right, since myself I bet on the games and event that I can observe only and most of the time, football and my favorite teams. It’s not that much complicated to have more fun rather than getting addicted to games of luck while setting a bet on every possible high odds without really knowing for sure that thing would ever happen or if it’s possible to happen.
I also believe that gamblers who are betting against their favorite teams just for the sake of odds, better returns and to make money are the gamblers who never enjoyed gambling in the right way, sooner or later they will fall in a bad addiction without understanding the main meaning of sports betting which is having more fun while watching your favorite team plays.

Having a very long slip is an obvious sign that you are definitely not gambling for the fun of it because that's a clear indication of selected picks for the purpose of winning and making some money off it but then if you aren't gambling for such but for fun, it will be a few or a single pick which u are interested in and want to make fun of but multiple picks is obviously an accumulation of several games to accumulate a good number of odd to expect a certain amount after a certain stake in the picks.

Some persons may want to claim otherwise but I know for sure they aren't saying the truth otherwise why else will they be always when the game eventually turns against them and not in their favour if they were playing for just fun.

There's a thrill that watching the games you bet on comes with but this are for active gamblers that stake very high in most cases, this makes it more enjoyable for them to watch. I remember the match between ivory coast and Nigeria a lot of Nigerians bet their last card on the game due to the fact that it was their country playing at the finals coupled with the expectations they had due to the performance level of the team..some people staked above 200k and they watched the game, this was an enjoyable moment for those that gambled but the result didn't have a favourable outcome because Nigeria lost the game. Even if you decide to gamble and watch the games you bet on ensure you gamble responsibly

Most likely for me they are gambling for fun as someone who bets to win money tries to minimize the time they wait for betting and honestly these guys putting a parlay of 25 games spanning from September to December I don't get what they want with such bet, trying their luck in the long run, it is plain stupid in my opinion. People who watch the games on TV I think are the ones who bet on a few games on different time schedule and most of the time they usually do it during weekends or Champions League events, I have done it personally and I have won several times doing so, betting on 3-4 games for a weekend and watching those games, too bad I don't have the patience anymore, my patience has gone and I now want instant results like slot machines.

fun can be a very private and personal topic... Roll Eyes it is certain that watching the event you have bet on is pleasant. probably also a multibet has the same effet.
Playing single event however allow an operational advantage... since you can "adjust" your strategy and limit the damages.
There are few crypto casinos that offer live streaming but it is truly a significant advantage...

It's same with me, because watching the match is fun itself and enjoying the thrill and anxiety os another fun.

One thing with watching the match is that you are also learning more about the two clubs current performance. I don't bet on long slip but just on few game.

However, there are some games that must clash and there is nothing one can do about it because both games are big matches, if I bet on both games playing at the same time or 15-30 mins later, I go to view center to watch but if I am watching the match at home, I do change the TV stations from time to time.

There are some questions that I read on this forum discussion board that there is no one fits all answer based on the fact that it is multifaceted and multidimensional. A person can have a long bet slip and still be gambling for fun while another player can bet on few games and is gambling for the money. This could go both ways. We have to consider the socioeconomic statues of both players. We have to bring into play other factors like experience and all of that thing. In all, at the end of the day the entertainment value and the money making intentions are all involved it is just that one may be higher than the other.

I don't know the relevance of what you are trying to bring up in the debate in terms of the result of making a profit. I have bet on leagues in which I have never watched a match, for example in the Saudi league. I have bet on that league a +100 times and I have never watched a match, and in fact I didn't even notice if my bet won. Now that doesn't happen with the top leagues, that's where my time is o up.

I believe you are right. This is because if you observe, gamblers that tend to win more often in sports betting are actually those that are fan of those sports especially soccer. Some one who doesn't watch soccer matches often would likely place bets by blindly only looking at the odds on the different team, and if he ends up losing the bet he won't find it fun.(Besides no one sees losing a bet as fun.)

On the other hand soccer fans are able to evaluate their games properly and also predict closely a majority of the time how those games would turn out and as a result they usually win more often and thus find it fun too. In addition to that watching the match just like you said is more fun because it actually shows that you are willing to see the outcome of them game rather than being solely concerned about winning the bet only.

If you are somewhat a fan then you will definitely be having that kind of fun with your bets on which you arent just that having the chance on making profits but also having that chance to have fun
because you are really that enjoying your team that it is playing or some sort considered to be part of fun on which this one matter the most. There are indeed people who cant be able to watch up the games
on which they had bet on but we do know that there's always that replay but i do really prefer on seeing games live whenever i do make bets but there are really instances or times that you cant be able
to do so. This is why it would really be that situational on this aspect.

There will always be a different feeling when you bet on your favorite team that you also watch the match live. it's fun if your favorite team wins and the bet will win too. but if you lose there are emotions that we will feel.
I will only follow and watch the match from my bet for a team that is indeed popular. while for those who I don't really follow but have a good chance of betting, I usually leave it and come back to see the betting results.

I can say watching one of the sports tournaments for example football, yes that is one of someone's hobbies or fun, but not in betting or gambling, that's another understanding for me.

Many football/sports fans don't bet, they just watch, if a gambler watches or gambles he is still gambling, regardless of whether they are having fun or not, it is common for us to see gamblers having fun not only when watching or gambling.

There are things that are interesting when people see sporting events being played, so that they are happy and there are certain things when they gambl

What do you think? Is it possible for a gambler with a long bet slip to be gambling for fun?

It is possible, because there are people who really loves to bet on every event they are aware of even it means they cannot watch it all at the same time. It's like they are enjoying about whether or not they made a good analysis on the odds and teams they put their bets on. Plus, they get a chance to get a good amount of win if most of the bets gets a good W. That's were excitement kicks in.
However, in my point of view, it is more enjoyable to watch your favourite team play while placing a bet as well.

If you are somewhat a fan then you will definitely be having that kind of fun with your bets on which you arent just that having the chance on making profits but also having that chance to have fun

Yes I quite agree with your opinion OP, gamblers who bet on fewer matches are more likely to just gamble for fun than other gamblers who order more tickets, but I think in the end it all depends on whether they watch the matches they bet on or not, regardless of how many tickets they order.
Watching the matches you bet on is certainly part of the fun, but I think it can't be denied that there are also some gamblers who order a few tickets when betting but don't watch the matches at all, meaning can't it also be assumed that they bet to make money? I think it's very possible.

So I think for this problem it is still not known for sure especially for those who order a few tickets but don't watch the matches they bet on at all, only they themselves know, and sometimes there is also the possibility for someone to gamble with the intention and purpose of making money even though they only order one ticket.

If you know, you know!
Placing bets on the matches that we watch certainly gives a different sensation than not placing bets by placing bets, of course we will always pay attention to the game of the team we place bets on, and when they make ridiculous mistakes, of course it will be very disappointing and could be the result of these mistakes making us lose money in betting and it is true as you said when they bet on many teams, of course they Not only looking for entertainment but they hope that luck will be able to win the bets placed and by analyzing the team that we will bet on, of course this will be very important to get luck in the bets we place.

Yes, that's of course true, watching the matches we bet on is definitely more exciting than just sitting still and watching how the teams attack and defend each other. So, what's your point here, do you just want to say that you agree with my opinion but by repeating the narrative in your words?

In general, If gamblers bet only on games they watch, it will stop players from accumulating bets, because watching more than 3 matches a day can be very exhausting. But, it'll as well increase the amount of money the bettor would place on those few matches. Hence, the profit and risk would be higher, compared to betting smaller cash on multiple games.

However, watching a game with your money on their victory, is always challenging and incurs tension. It leaves the gambler tensed, until the game ends with a victory. Bearing in mind the number of days that goes by, for the player to forget the story behind a lost game, it's always beneficial to view random competitions, including the ones that didn't cost money.
