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.

Not too Fomo with live betting when watching football, I also just watch. But in special sessions when players or clubs that I idolize play, I place a small bet because I am sure that club will win. Watching while betting will provide a different and more challenging atmosphere. If I win it's my luck, but if I lose it doesn't matter. people who make lots of bets and jackpots, they certainly don't just do it once but it has become their job.

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  Grin. My friend also like soccer betting than other game like slot, plinko or casino. He made a win and he buys me a drink  Grin when he does that I just like it.

Gambling should be fun
people stress themselves in gambling because they are pressured that they need to win every round, you want to have fun? don't expect too much, because every time you think of what if this and that, you will be stressed.
Also, you should not spend too much money, because if you lose that's is stressful, instead why spend a few dollars and after that go home, you're goal is to have fun after all

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.

One way to always avoid this, make sure that you stake responsibly and gamble with the amount you can afford to lose, when you go above your power, you will feel uncomfortable watching that match freely. In short, you wouldn't mind entering the TV screen just to make sure your predictions come true. It is better to bet with the amount you have and can lose to avoid stories that touch the heart later.
Another way to avoid it is to not take it too seriously. It is supposed to be fun and not some very serious business. So sit back relax, have some fun. I don't think it is wise thing to count your winnings before the outcome. Counting it, puts you on the edge and  you have nothing on your mind other than that. You become nervous and too focused on the game.

Actually it's not the casino or the final result that makes you disappointed but rather it's your own hopes and expectations that make you finally feel disappointed and sorry, if we take it casually and not too seriously as you suggest then I think you will still be fine even if the final result is not what you expected, which is why putting a small budget is highly recommended because with that the level of disappointment they feel will also not be too significant and can still be accepted properly.

Of course that's true, gambling is not a necessity and anyone has the freedom to bet but it is expected and recommended that it is better to use a small budget because as I said above, and also gambling will be more fun if we come with the intention of not overdoing it and focus only on enjoying every sensation we get, on the other hand too focused on the final results of betting will make us feel a little worried and by using a small budget I think you will not experience the pressure that can make you worry enough.

Which one is fun, watching with a bet or without a bet? Both are fun in my opinion it was really fun if you do bet and win but it will be very upsetting if you lose streak.

and sometimes I just like watching other people bet and I actually spot people who got a jackpot in dice and crash game

Not too Fomo with live betting when watching football, I also just watch. But in special sessions when players or clubs that I idolize play, I place a small bet because I am sure that club will win.

I don't think it is much fun watching with a bet especially when the odds we bet on is not happening and is fun if we are winning.  So the answer to the question is dependent on the situation of our bet.  But I find it more fun watching my favorite team winning the match.  With or without bet, it gives thrills and excitement plus the situation where my favorite team is on the lead.

Regardless of the situation, removing the fun side, I believe it is more of a suspense brought by the waiting on the possible outcome of our placed bet on the match.

I think I prefer to watch a game without a bet. I'm calmer when I don't bet. I analyze and see the game better. When I have a bet on the game, all I care about is my bet, I don't care how they play.
It's just like when I'm watching a game where I'm neutral. I don't care who wins, I just want to enjoy both teams play. The only thing that can go wrong is when that game turns out to be uninteresting.

Sometimes if the game goes exactly how I predicted, I'll start regretting why I didn't bet on the game. It happens to me a lot.
But I also like watching a game I bet on. I like to see how they play so I'll know how to place my bets next time.
You are right, if we don't bet on matches then we will enjoy the game more throughout the match without the burden of thinking about the results of the match because we don't care which team will win the match, but when you bet on a certain team you will fully support it until your team wins and if If your team doesn't win then you lose the bet. Many gamblers also sometimes don't watch all the rounds of the match because they are worried they will lose their bet, but you should not bet high on sports betting because every match is difficult to predict, sometimes popular teams can also lose to lower class teams and many other unpredictable factors in each sports bets that do not meet betting expectations

Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.

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.

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?

Some people will say they like it and that it is fun but their reactions and body language say otherwise when they have an open tickets and still go ahead to watch the same match, they don't look happy if the match doesn't go as expected. As for me, I do watch the games I bet on. Just because I bet on my games doesn't make it hard for me to be entertained by the match, the fact that you bet on that match and you confidently bet on the game gives you the mind to let go of that money but I wouldn't deny it, I do show that reaction if my expectations go below what I expect to happen after the match but it doesn't last up to 5-minute max as I do quickly forget it even happens.

One way to always avoid this, make sure that you stake responsibly and gamble with the amount you can afford to lose, when you go above your power, you will feel uncomfortable watching that match freely. In short, you wouldn't mind entering the TV screen just to make sure your predictions come true. It is better to bet with the amount you have and can lose to avoid stories that touch the heart later.

It's humane if you are disappointed by losing a bet. You just need to play more relaxed, nothing can be predicted precisely in gambling. Limit your losses so you don't get depressed.
The more often you play, the more often you will lose if you don't play with a clear mind.
Gambling is fun, don't make it a pressure. Play moderately, take your money when you win. That will make you calmer.
Many people lose money because they don't enjoy the game, they are quite stressed when it comes to playing.

I think it's not only natural that they feel disappointed but in my opinion it's a result that should be accepted gracefully, this is gambling where there is always no certainty and guarantee for the results that match what you want, so by understanding that they should be able to prepare from the start to accept any risks that will befall them in their gambling involvement. One of the important things that needs to be done is to limit the budget and expectations, so that you will not lose too much money and also with a low level of expectation then obviously you will also not experience significant disappointment.

That's right buddy, the more often they gamble, the more often they will lose, because it is difficult to win because everything always depends on luck, if only luck can be controlled then it seems like many rich people have been born from gambling Cheesy. So of course treating gambling as a place of entertainment is more advisable than you suffer a lot of pressure because of applying excessive behavior for something uncertain.

Yeah I'm not that interested in watching the games I bet on, even when it's my own favorite team. I think that when I watch it and the game doesn't go as expected, I worry that it will ruin my mood during the game.
Each of us has our own preferences, so just follow what you think is good for you, and just don't mind the others if they are doing it differently. But if let say you didn't place a bet for a while, will you now have the courage to watch the games going on, especially if you are very familiar on the team that are playing, like it was your favourite? I think many (if not all) are going to do it. Not only it's fun and exciting but it can also act like a support for them and we can also cheer to them, especially if we are watching live inside a stadium. To feel upset during a bad moment is always there. You can't prevent that because we are only human. But, I guess the feeling won't be as bad as when we placed a bet.

So instead of feeling disturbed, it's better for me to avoid watching the match and use that time to play slots or other activities.
When you play slots and do similar activities, won't it still ruin your mood, when things didn't go well? Better if you use your time on something that you can benefit really well.

There's no such thing about being relaxed and entertaining when it comes to losing money and this is why some people cant really just that afford on trying to test out these things
but there are ones who do really see these things to be that fun and entertaining. Therefore, it would really be just that meaning that each person does have their own
ways on how they would really be able to enjoy things. It might look up not really just that too bad in our side but it is really just that fine on other persons eyes.
When doing gambling then we do really know that having bet or money involved would really be adding some spice things up. It would be a normal approach for those people
who do really want to deal up with gambling.

Watching with bet used to be more enjoyable than just watching a match. When you've placed a bet on a match, it makes us watch the match and gives us the opportunity to avoid loss if things were against our prediction. Apart from the same my preference used to be live betting which lets us predict the outcome in a much closer manner.

Not for me though, when I watch the game and I see my team aren't playing well, everytime I do a live bet, I have experience losing most of the time. So it's not working for me, watching it and thinking of live betting will only make the situation worse, unless you are a professional sports bettor and you have a data to back up your pick, however, if it's "emotion-based" bet, forget it.

We're the same, that's why I don't really watch anymore when I have a bet because I can't focus watching because the other half of my mind is busy thinking about my bet and thinking if I'm going to win or not, seems like being an overthinker can really manifest the thing that they're thinking which somehow results of losing.

I think it's better to keep those two things separate, or I mean if you want to bet then focus on your betting and if you're just there for the fun of the match you're watching then it's better not to put money into the match you're watching, or I mean don't bet at the same time when you're focused on the fun of the match that's going on.

But on the other hand I think it's all about choice, each individual has the freedom to choose whether they will watch while betting or not, and also each gambler has a different level of pleasure, there are also those who can get 100% pleasure by having to bet on their favorite team's match. The point is I think it's better to focus on one thing only and like you said don't let our brains and minds be distracted just because of the worry of losing that could make our money disappear, so it's better to seek pleasure without risking losing.

Losing much time when watching all matches its not good ideas but you will feel how interested and more push your adrenaline exactly in sport betting. You can watch football matches and see how to make it interested exactly with your teams bet have won but with small score and left few minutes before ended your favorite teams on under pressure. I believe you can't wait for referee as soon stop the game and not give many minutes for additional time. Only watching with one teams for betting but I agree with you when watching all matches bet waste and losses our time exactly in football have more than 90 minutes o every match.

Just watching one match only and another matches result waiting from livescore update, its not take more time and return when matches have ended to see our bet win or loss.
Your love for sports betting is obvious, but you must be cautious. A single match enhances the experience but limits one's perspective. Isnt understanding the sport's context exciting? By focusing on one's stake, one risks missing the game's richer tapestry.

Additionally, livescore updates alone can be risky. While saving time, it also removes us from the game's full dynamics. We gain efficiency, but at what cost to our sports knowledge and appreciation?

Finally, responsible betting is crucial. Its about healthy, sustainable sports participation, not just winning. We should enjoy the sport, not simply our bets.

Why do you think gambling should be fun? I don’t know a single person who is interested in gambling and gets pleasure from it. I think this is a wrong point of view. I know more disappointed people who play than those who enjoy it.
Moreover, even when a person wins money, he does not always get pleasure from it. After all, then he begins to think that he should have bet more money on this outcome.
Earning money is not always associated with pleasure

Do the gamblers you know come from gamblers with weak finances? or those who still borrow money from friends when they are on a losing streak to force them to continue playing?
If you are not ready mentally and financially, it is better not to gamble. it will only disrupt the lives of your fellow gamblers.

After all, every gambler must be aware that they may spend more on gambling than they win. but every win they get they have to enjoy it, otherwise they probably won't go back to gambling again.

By using your logic, it's not that gambling can't be fun, but your whole aren't fun too.

When you win in gambling, you're not happy because you still regret to gamble more money. When you lose in gambling, you're not happy because you're not win.

So this is similar to, when you get an achievement you're still jealous with other people achievement or think you're not enough to only get that.
