Topic: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? - page 13. (Read 3095 times)
In fact i don't think losing money is ever fun so losing especially exposes my own attitude and weakness. As you are one before betting and different after betting. even if the outcome of the bet is such that your mind will evolve such as the joy of losing or winning. Bad stressful thoughts will come upon you after repeated gambling losses and your money is at the last moment. However gambling has a lot of attitude and it manifests itself because of the individual's particular reasons such as the amount of money he or she will tolerate.
Watching a match that you staked can be very stressful and emotional, at this point your expectation will be for the match to favour the option you selected, but when you are watching a match that you didn't stake you mind is always free, if anyone loses you won't be bothered because there is nothing at stake, this is why some gamblers decide not to watch the game they staked because of the stress the past through in watching such game, more especially when this match is approaching due minute and the option they selected has not played yet, this situation can be devastating, I won't advise anyone to watch a match he or she placed bet on because it can tiger someone BP, people always say that bet create excitement, where will the excitement be when you lose, so be wise.
Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.
I can understand what you mean here. It can be stressful watching a game that you’ve placed some good money on a bet and the side you bet on doesn’t seem to want the win that badly and are playing poorly.
I sometimes, think it’s not necessary to get worked up over matches that I’ve placed bets on and skip watching such games. It’s better not to watch such games and just check the outcome later on.
Matches that I placed bets using a considerable amount of money, it’s sometimes much easier for me and my heart not to watch it. It’s not really fun watching the side you bet heavily on play and go on to lose.
I think for this problem it really comes back to everyone's choice and also with what they want and what their purpose is involved, the logic is clear as you said if indeed they come only for entertainment then the question is why they watch while betting? isn't watching the game running just that entertaining enough? but yes as I said above that all this depends on their choice, maybe they will really be able to feel the pleasure if they watch while betting.
I just hope whoever it is will stay well and be able to maintain their bank balance by only putting the amount they can afford to be responsible for whatever the outcome is, especially losing.
Yes that's right, for people who choose to watch while betting I would give the same ideas and advice as you said, however if you do put money on the line then obviously this is a risky activity even though they basically want entertainment, because risk cannot always be avoided even if they are very optimistic in determining the team they choose, so one solution to minimize disappointment is to be strict with the limits they have set and by only using enough money as well as minimizing expectations on the final result.
It only becomes stressful when the amount staked is quite high and you're unsure about that bet but still you've just placed it. Regardless of whether I bet or not, if I really like the match I'd definitely going to enjoy watching it but it's more of course thrilling when I have bet on it. That sums up the joy that you have when you do it and you bet for it. That's why if you think that you cannot attain to watch a match that you bet for, simply don't watch it. And there are bettors that have rituals for themselves that they don't have to watch their matches because they believe that they're going to lose if ever they do, so they choose not to.
Well, all of these are for entertainment if it is with these sports but when my money is on it, it changes everything and becomes more than an entertainment and I believe that most of us are the same on it, right?
So, if your main purpose is to have fun. Do all your bets and never mind whether you win it or not because you choose to watch it and just enjoy the game. Otherwise, you're adding pressure to yourself because you are thinking of your bet and setting aside to enjoy the seat and the game.
Mindset matters. Don't let betting's risk-reward nature fool you. Remember to never bet more than you can lose. This is prudent gambling's first rule. This is a marathon, so keep stakes low.Well, all of these are for entertainment if it is with these sports but when my money is on it, it changes everything and becomes more than an entertainment and I believe that most of us are the same on it, right?

About game enjoyment. Bets create excitement, but don't let them eclipse sports' true joy. Stop betting if your heart is racing and palms are sweating. A bright, flashing neon sign indicates overdoing it. Sports are about emotion, excitement, and sometimes just watching great athletes.
Final thing: rituals and superstitions. They're human coping mechanisms for unknown consequences. They shouldn't control your behavior. Bets should be calculated, not based on fear or irrational assumptions. Stay calm, clever, and remember that it's all about enjoying the game, regardless of your bet.
Watching matches without betting you may still feel dissapointed mostly when your team loses. But not compare to you betting and seeing your team lose too. That feeling can be frustrating no doubt most you went all out. In the betting putting most hope on your team so that will double disappointment so it won't be fun it will be tense even seeing the team you bet on taking in goals the tension will be increasing. So watching match without betting feel more satisfying thought because you actually got nothing lose but you still feel some disappointment.
Of course, when you watch your favorite team's match you will be upset if your team loses that match and if you have placed a bet on this match your upset will double if you lose your bet. However, as someone who generally chooses to place sports bets on whether my favorite team will win the match due to my greater excitement, I would like to point out that I watch the matches I bet on with greater pleasure. As someone who has watched the matches of my favorite team before with and without betting I must say that I watch the match more excitedly when I bet regardless of the outcome. Of course, if my favorite team loses the match, I feel twice as sad than usual but this isn't a valid reason for me to deny the fact that I watch more enjoyable and exciting matches when I bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?

Ofcourse we will feel disappointed because at the end we think of a probability to occur and hope that it happens and when it doesn't then it creates a short term impact on our mind.
But it also depends on us whether we let it affect us or not. We shouldn't bet high amounts which creates huge impact on us.
Betting limited amount so that we can actually have fun watching the game is more preferable.

I can understand what you mean here. It can be stressful watching a game that you’ve placed some good money on a bet and the side you bet on doesn’t seem to want the win that badly and are playing poorly. I sometimes, think it’s not necessary to get worked up over matches that I’ve placed bets on and skip watching such games. It’s better not to watch such games and just check the outcome later on.
Matches that I placed bets using a considerable amount of money, it’s sometimes much easier for me and my heart not to watch it. It’s not really fun watching the side you bet heavily on play and go on to lose.
But I also often avoid watching the matches I use to place bets. This prevents me from experiencing stress throughout the match and not being too disappointed with the final result. Apart from that, after placing a bet, I usually do other things that can keep me busy and not think about the match. It can work for me and when I see the results of the bet, if I lose, I won't be too disappointed because it's money I can afford that I'm betting on.
I know this situation is difficult where your mind is with the team you bet and your heart wants your favorite team to win.
This is a familiar strategy in sports betting, "bet against yourself". If you are a gambler who constantly record the outcome of your bets and you notice that you have high losing percentage, then betting against yourself is the key to win. However, that will mean you'll have to sacrifice the fun as that gives fun in sports betting is when our emotion are in control, this strategy is to follow our mind and fade our heart.

You are indeed right. When I bet on a game, it becomes a more entertaining game for me, but when I lose the bet, the same game becomes a nightmare for me. When we win, it's more fun, but when we lose, it's just as disappointing. I think betting creates a kind of leverage. It increases the amount of fun and disappointment.

Another thing is that I think if you really want to take both, meaning watching while betting then I think there is one thing you should pay attention to if you really don't want to feel significant disappointment if you end up losing, namely putting the smallest amount of budget whether it's 1% or whatever the point is not to upset you and not disturb your financial balance if your favorite team loses. By summarizing what you said about your habits, it seems that you are one of those people who prefer to focus on the final result of your bet rather than looking for fun by watching the game, and you only check or look for the final answer when the match is over, of course, as I said above that everyone has their own choices.
I am with you on this. Yes, we have our own favorite teams that we are all rooting for.
However, when it comes to betting, I also follow my instincts even if it is not my team.
Because at the end of the day, it is your money at stake. They don't care about your funds, whether you lose it or not.
So you can cheer on your favorite team but your bets may be on the opposite team. For me, that's more than understandable.

I think it is impossible to cheer up your favorite team if you are placing the bet on the opposite team. So now, what will be your preference, would you like that your favourite team win and you to lose your bet (as you were cheering for your favorite team)? Or you may that your favourite team loses so that you can win the bet.
I know this situation is difficult where your mind is with the team you bet and your heart wants your favorite team to win. If this situation comes to me, I will avoid placing a bet on such matches where I am too emotional with my favorite team even though it may be the weaker team out of the two.
There are too many matches out there, where we can bet, so leaving such matches and watching them without betting is a better and stress free option in my opinion.

You are pens dot on this one.I have done this a few times and it usually isn’t that enjoyable. As well as you just might be playing for leisure, you would be more satisfied if you happen to win and so, while watching a game that you’ve gambled on and it ain’t going according yo your prediction comes with a different level of adrenaline rush.
Maybe you might be that sort of person that is in it for the adrenaline, getting to be in the game, see all the efforts and mistakes that either produced or made you lose your bet and the joys or pain that comes with yo be better felt. I still wouldn’t want to be in that position but, I don’t shy away from it if that’s the case. If it’s a game I so want to watch, I will watch but, it’s not much pleasurable.
and this is where people do really look out for on which the thrill that gambling gives but we cant deny that everyone would really be playing for the sake of profit.

If I can bed a particular match and decided to watch the match at the end of the day if the team that I predicted will win is leading, I will be very happy and also be confident even if the match turns out to go against what I predicted I will not be very much pained, but if from the beginning of the match what I predicted begins to happen opposite, I will not be happy throughout the match even if it is not about the money, but for my prediction to be wrong.
But there is another scenario that makes me very happy, that is if I did not gamble at all and I eventually meet people that gambled and their prediction is going wrong. I will simply be happy and laughing throughout the match. Not really I wanted them to lose their money, but just for fun.

If you can't watch the game you are betting on then it's time to stop betting on those sports. Gambling should be fun and at the point that it's not you should look for something else to do. I always say to myself once I can't deal with the loss it's time to stop and bet on something else or reduce my bet a little to where I can watch.
I might intend to watch but not have time, I only have the time in the end to watch brief highlights and get the results. Alongside a bet maybe the very brief interaction I have with that game is the best option I have at that point hence the bet enhances my limited involvement for which Im grateful. If Iam able to watch the entire game then the bet is more of an option, sometimes I must watch the game in order that I may bet in future otherwise Im just guessing having never seen the performances in person.
It is true that not everyone watches sports matches for entertainment or to see the games being played, for those who place bets of course they want victory on the team they place a bet on to be able to win their bet and this depends on each person.
Yes, for some people who like betting on sports, of course they will be more interested in watching it and when they don't bet, they don't like watching the match, but for those who like sports, of course they will still watch their favorite team's match even though they don't place a bet.
Yes. Everyone has their own purpose to watch sports matches. Some people watch because they love the sports, other people may be the fanatic fans of some teams, and other may watch because they have a certain business like betting. People who love the sports and the fans, must enjoy the matches although they get nothing from the matches. It is very different with people who bet on the matches, they only can enjoy it when they win on their betting. In this matter, I can't categorize people who bet on the matches to get fun from the matches. Their main purpose is for money, they don't watch for fun. So, we can't compare the bettors the same as the fans and sports lovers. If they are real fans or sports lovers, it won't be a big problem to lose or win the betting as long as their favorite teams win the matches.Yes, for some people who like betting on sports, of course they will be more interested in watching it and when they don't bet, they don't like watching the match, but for those who like sports, of course they will still watch their favorite team's match even though they don't place a bet.
