Topic: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? - page 16. (Read 3208 times)

I definitely prefer to watch sports game where I have a stake in it. Placing a bet on my favourite team before a big match makes me even more hyped and enjoy the game. Becoming stressful during a game because of a bet, usually means for me that I bet too much money and are not comfortable anymore. Which is why I try to bet smaller sizes on a larger number of bets than to focus just on a few games where I would bet a lot of money. Usually I watch football, some basketball and of course some esport games like CSGO and Dota2. For me it’s fun to watch all those games, and if I had no more fun from one particular sport, I would start looking for an alternative. Losing bets is part of the game and I stopped to worry so much about losing a single bet, it’s all about the law of large numbers and making sure on average to 55-60% of the bets. Nobody can achieve a 100%-win rate in sports betting, there will always be surprises and we need to live with them. If there is no more fun for you in betting and watching the gamers, you should maybe try to change things up and make it more interesting again for you.

When you have your mind focused on the games you bet on, that's when you find it stressful watching how the games you bet on lost but so far as you have less focus on the game bet, you feel less stress on how the games played out(either win or lost).

The major mistake many bettors make is to carry their whole mind and focus on their bets made. Whereas they are supposed to take each of the betting games made with little worry of whether they win or lose, they will be fine and they won't allow their loss game to deny or take away their joy of gambling.

The watching of match is not stress for us until the betting person is our close friends or relatives.Many people use to watch the game in the YouTube video who use to play in online by doing Vlog.By this the gambler can easily learn the game in the gambling site,this was the strategy of the gambler who was new to the gambling site.It was the advantage for the gambler of this generation,before it was hard to learn the game from the gambling site.Even the gambling site was not accessible to the all gamblers.Some gamblers also do the gambling on betting on the gamblers who may win in the playing gamblers.

Sports betting certainly stirs emotions. Bets involve money, hopes, and expectations. Our wager is on the line, so watching the game is an emotional roller coaster. Pressure might be high, especially with a large sum. Humans feel the heat when our predictions are precarious.

This is when wisdom comes in. Remember that betting is a chance, not a certainty. Expectations and emotions must be managed. Detachment isnt just advised and survival technique in wagering. Those who master this can experience the excitement without emotional distress. Betting should be fun, not stressful. If watching the game is nerve-wracking, we should rethink our strategy. Betting is a game of chance, so we must stay calm and steady.

You enjoy while you are watching the game and it will be worth it to put a bet since you are hoping to profit from your cheering. This is certainly what is going on in my mind while I watch a local match actually and there are people also betting in the audience so betting is not really a taboo in every society.

FFor me it's more fun to bet while watching. I feel more connected to the people around me who are also watching the game.

It is very natural for us to feel that way because what is with our mind that we wanted to happen goes the opposite. We won't feel upset when we treat gambling as an entertainment but we may sometimes feel a slight sense of loss or regret.

The line between winning and losing becomes an endless source of inspiration for those watching, which is what I realized when standing near a crowd excitedly participating in an activity, once people become too happy, they often lose their usual vigilance. Besides, refusing to bet does not mean we ignore it, but somewhere, we are muttering and calculating the odds, our instincts will tell us that victory is present and needs us to actualize, of course, illusions and intuition are deceiving us but that's okay, if it's just a low stakes

I think this mindset is only reason watching a match can be stressful. Most people just hate to lose money, I also don't like, but anyways when I put a bet on something I tend to forget it later. I love to reset my mind right after I completed my sports bet. Most people I know can't do this because its actually skill. But anyways when you bet on a game and check it when it was already alive, observing your bet is going through is very fun. It becomes nervous but joyable at that point as you are so close to winning.

The way you do it is quite good in finding which team is better and better to choose by waiting for the match to finish and seeing which team is more likely to be chosen in the next bet by looking at the depth statistics of the two teams, that's good but do you think that it's not possible that in the next bet you lose even though you have got references from replays by choosing a better team? of course, the top class team is still very likely to be defeated by a medium or below average team, the point is that any result can happen and including for results that we never expected.

On the other hand I don't blame you with the way you choose because it is indeed quite good and effective to minimize the possibility of losing by choosing a team that is expected to have a greater chance of winning. The other thing is that it is quite clear that everyone bets with the aim of winning, I'm not hypocritical because I'm one of them too, but certainly don't focus too much on winning because that's the same as raising your hopes and expectations which will certainly make your disappointment even higher if the final result is not appropriate. Betting to win and not racing too much for fun but not feeling sorry when the final result loses, from this I can conclude a little that it looks like you put a budget that you can be responsible for.

Nice advice, but there is no way anyone would be able to clear their mind if they are watching the match they bet on and the team is losing or the condition is working against his prediction. It's blood that flows in our veins, so it's not easy and I am certain that the pressure on the person can be proportional to the amount of money used to bet the game. Also, think about it, someone that permutated his games where about 9 out of 10 games have already been won, but the last one is about to ruin the whole ticket. Would you expect the person to play nice, especially when the money to be won is high, having betted with a small amount of money to make such a huge amount? This is why in this category, I like to keep my mute because it depends on the individual. This is the situation where you will talk anyhow to the person and the person could break your head simply due to needless aggression. I can only urge anyone who is betting to be wise, it's not a must that you watch the match you bet on, and if you know you can handle it, go for it. Yet, a mature person will always know that betting is not a do-or-die thing, you can win or lose, so you don't have to be entirely sentimental simply because you have some preference. As it's difficult to practice, we can still try and it will help us over the change in attitude at that time.

Same here, i find it very stressful watching a game when you have a bet on either team. Most of the time, i won't watch it live, i will just watch the replay so i can see how the players were doing on that particular game as a reference for my next bet on them.

I bet to win, not for fun lol, but if my bet loses, i don't have regrets because that's my choice and i just put it in my mind that we will not always win in gambling, we win some we lose some.

Their reminder is only "gamble responsibly", they don't state a certain amount on how much you would gamble, or even state gamble what you can afford to lose only. Gambling sites would love their bettors to gamble more as they don't use emotion in running the business, they follow the rules or the law and they are operating to be profitable, and as much as possible they want to maximize it. Therefore, it's up to us on how to interpret the words "gamble responsibly".

The point of betting should be an amount someone can afford to lose. It should not be a big deal, as these betting sites always remind the bettors to be responsible gamblers. Someone who gambles irresponsibly means that person has problems that need to be fixed because he will be irresponsible even outside of gambling.

It indeed feels more relaxed without a bet. But that is nothing compared to the feeling when winning a bet even if it's just in small amounts. Like yesterday, I won around $30 during the Mobile Legends finals while hanging out with my friends. And there's so much thrill and excitement especially when the games are much closer.

Most people are not interested in the game all they are interested is the amount they will make from the amount they stake. Which is probably either ways. Either they gain or they lose the amount they stake. While some people enjoy watching the game but when there's bet they will be more tense than watching normal game. I think most people just prefer checking the game online to see who's winning than watching due to that tense and fear of losing their funds. That just my opinions

Watching all the matches will of course be a waste of time and when betting on sports there will usually be a lot of matches. For example today's match there are a total of 10 matches in different leagues and of course you don't just bet on 1 match but on several matches which makes you not it's difficult to predict and among these matches there will definitely be several matches that have the same time when the match has started and of course you are confused if you want to watch the live broadcast of the match, because coincidentally your favorite clubs are all playing if we watch the match live or watch the live score and coincidentally there are several clubs that we bet on lose. I mean they have conceded first and you are starting to have doubts about the result you expect, so we can Cash Out before the match ends so we can minimize losses. But of course we have to watch the match without missing it which is different from the previous one if you don't see the live score or only see the results after the match is over you won't be able to Cash Out. There are indeed benefits if we place bets while watching, but it's true that it's quite a waste of time, I myself sometimes watch while betting when I'm enjoying my free time, but If I'm busy I just place a bet and see the end result.

That sense of risk free when watching people gamble, the feeling has no match like other, but if those who are gambling on a match wins you will feel like you missed out,  it is better not to get closer to anyone that is into gambling or else you will start feeling like you are missing out.

You will feel more relaxed if you don't place a bet on a match but as a gambler you can still feel relaxed if you risk a very small amount on the match, the reason why people feel like they aren't having fun is because they use money they can't afford to lose on the match or game.

 
I don't have to place a bet on a match because it is not a must for me to bet on a game sometimes I just feel the need like I need to enjoy the game without placing a bet on the game.

I know right that sometimes we watch people gambling is also fun but when they win big is something a little bit envy in my mind  . My friend also like soccer betting than other game like slot, plinko or casino. He made a win and he buys me a drink  when he does that I just like it.

Though, I believe some of the problems with betting on sports and the management of the bankroll also comes because people who want to partake on it does not quite tell the difference between fun and thrill, you know.
Some of them may increase their wager more and more for the sake of seeking more thrill and getting stressed when they start to see the match going in an opposite direction they planned. The fun of the sport betting comes when there is no attachment to the money, so one can focus on other things about the match and the performance of the teams. If one is having the company of friends while watching the match is even easier to have fun, in my opinion.

If even after decreasing the wager one cannot enjoy and have fun while watching the match, then it would better not to follow the match on live and just wait for the results of it. In the end, if there is no fun while gambling or betting then there is no reason to continue to partake on it...

I guess stress is already part of gambling, you get mix emotions when gambling, you fee happy and you feel sad, but you wish to end up happy all the time. Thats' how gambler think, however, if we could not move on from losses, that's the real problem since we would make sure we will come back with a bigger bet, and with that, principles are to be broken  since we will start gambling what we cannot afford to lose.

Casinos always remind us to have fun, and that could only be achieve if we gamble responsibly. In any kind of games actually, may it be a luck based on skilled based like sports betting.
