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.
