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 actually have a plan for this, basically they bet against the team they want to win.

Therefore, they will be happy because their team won, or they would be happy because they earned some money.

Win/Win.

It's the best feeling when you are about to watch your favorite sports and you're also putting a bet on them whichever is they are against with. I'm doing this mostly in esports/sports and it's so fun to watch when I know that I have bet on the right time. But if things go south and they're not performing well then it's easy to accept defeat for me and all I have to do is bet better on the next matches or games that I am also going to watch. The attitude is like that, move on when done and don't be too bitter with all of your losses because whether you like it or not, all of us will have that.
Yes it is much more fun when one is enjoying his favorite game while placing bets for that game. Even if you don't bet, you get pleasure, but when you do, it brings extra pleasure. now it will depend on everyone's personality and financial situation. Gambling is a lot of fun and besides, if luck is good, big wins from it are very profitable.  So betting for pleasure according to your ability to lose is not a problem.  However, you should not bet more than you can afford
And you'd include some cold drinks or hot beverages that you like to drink of, best feeling indeed. Well, as a fan, you get to support your team with or without the bet but it's just more thrilling when you'd always put some bet on it and it has become like a tradition when a gambler supports a team or club that's been part of his entire life. The idea of betting pleasure is much better than you go and chase your losses and some profits.
When people drink, they are freed from their normal thoughts and spend that time enjoying the world anew. one can enjoy the match of one's favorite team with alcohol and it will be a lot of fun but if one wants to bet at this time then it will be a wrong decision.  Because at this time no one can think of the potential. Because he will be drunk then they will be out of control and will place huge bets and this will have a huge impact on his financial situation.

I only do this on my favorite team when I play. so I bet and watched it. If you say it's fun, of course, it's fun when you bet and watch the team you support. As for other teams, I usually just bet and leave it. I looked at it the next day and checked the results of some of the bets I made.
Unfortunately, when we bet on a team that we like, we tend not to be objective in analyzing the odds. If you are a fan, you will bet on your favorite team.
It's even more fun when the team you bet and support had won, right? For the other teams that you don't support but you've got some good analysis, it's fine that you just bet and leave and wait until the results come. And as for your favorite team, there might be some instances that you'd leave them as well when you've got a hectic schedule but with the comfort of having gadgets nowadays and internet connection, you can watch them wherever we are.

Moreover, feeling disappointment too deeply will not be able to change anything and will only leave sadness which might make us do stupid things such as trying to get another win and betting carelessly.

As for me: when my bet loses in gambling, I feel a little upset. But I try not to lose heart and not to lose hope. It is important to remember that there is always a risk of losing in gambling, but this is not a reason to despair. I just accept defeat as part of the game and learn from my mistakes. The main thing is not to go into a deep negative and not to lose control of your emotions.

One thing that's certain in gambling is the possibility of losing so before someone will go into betting they should have it in mind that the betting could go sideways so that they will prepare there mind and also control on there emotions, is obvious that nobody will be happy losing there bet but that doesn't mean that they will allow there emotions get the better part of them because whenever most people lose there bet there emotions becomes uncontrollable and they will keep gambling in other to get back there money they lose and from there they will go home with nothing.

Usually, watching a football match is actually for fun, especially when you have your preferred team on the pitch, But for me, it either ways, But kind of prefer watching without a bet on because this sometimes puts me on the pressure side, particularly if it happened to be that it is my preferred team that is on the field playing. However, more of on the fun side if you have the game actually going in your favor because you would have in mind that in the end you could win some amount of money.

I can enjoy watching a sporting even with or without a bet for sure.  Gambling isn't a necessity when watching sports.  Just last weekend I was watching Spring Training games and didn't have any money on the line but also had no problem staying interested (partly because I had first row seats and didn't want to catch a foul ball to the face and partly because ballpark nachos).  I will say when watching long games at home though I do have a tendency to feel like naptime towards the end of the game, where having money on the line usually keeps me somewhat engaged and interested in the outcome.

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

You know what mate we felt disappointed cause we were aiming for the win and that's the reason why we felt angry, sad, and disappointed. Actually  in reality gambling is for fun only but we can't deny the fact that once we overthink in gambling we can make those things such us angry.
Anyways to answer for the title above that's which is must better watching with bet or without bet? Actually watching with bet cause The thrill is there once you put a bet there's a challenge when you are watching and once your favorite team will win then also we will be the winner too.

Basically yes gambling as a whole is just for fun when you have boring free time and that means it doesn't matter if you watch the game without betting or even while betting but as you said that watching while betting is more prioritized just to make the atmosphere more exciting because of the adrenaline rush and not to fully pursue victory, but sometimes there are some people who are even too serious in responding to betting which means that when they lose they experience emotions that are sometimes difficult to control and that can make the situation much worse because emotions have the potential to trigger more losses.

Unlike when you gamble without the goal of earning in the sense of gambling for entertainment, for me watching the game while betting is just to trigger adrenaline and as you said that it is true that it is more challenging but without too much hope of winning, or meaning that losing money is not a painful thing because I realize that it is a consequence of my decision which is watching while betting.

The main thing is not to go into a deep negative and not to lose control of your emotions. Next time I will make more deliberate bets and hope for luck!

I have also had to learn from my mistakes, I swear, because if I have played and lost, I have made the mistake of betting with more money to recover the previous one and I don't achieve it at all, on the contrary, if I achieve it, I would lose, that's why The thing is that now when I play and place my bets what I do is limit my money and I can't go overboard because that would be falling into the same mistakes as always, so I have had to learn based on my mistakes and that is something that is True, we feel disappointment, sadness, among other things, but it is something very necessary for all of us as players.

The best learning is achieved when we lose, and when we lose a lot of money we learn much more, because I enter a moment of reflection and that for me represents recreating each of the moments when I was losing, that is when I learned the most.

I think you use too much of your money to bet so you are stressed and can't enjoy the game. Of course, I have also bet large amounts when my favorite team plays. And it really kept me from enjoying the game because I really wanted to win that bet. I couldn't enjoy the whole match. And I was really disappointed with myself. Therefore I no longer try to bet beyond my limits. I will only bet with money that I am willing to risk losing. So I can really enjoy the match, and it's even more exciting because you have bets on the match.

I believe you've hit the nail on the head; gambling is very much appreciated when done within what you can afford and with the proper attitude. Unfortunately, there's nothing bad with experiencing fun through placing a bet, so long as you are able to afford losing the money and do so safely and responsibly. In reality, study have shown that gambling can be good for our psychological well-being if done in control.
It's the best feeling when you are about to watch your favorite sports and you're also putting a bet on them whichever is they are against with. I'm doing this mostly in esports/sports and it's so fun to watch when I know that I have bet on the right time. But if things go south and they're not performing well then it's easy to accept defeat for me and all I have to do is bet better on the next matches or games that I am also going to watch. The attitude is like that, move on when done and don't be too bitter with all of your losses because whether you like it or not, all of us will have that.

Of course, that is the very essence of being a sports fan, you put some money on your team and then watch how the games will unfold. It will be double fun if your team wins, and so you will have good money and maybe you can celebrate your winnings with some of your friends that is also a fan of that ball club. As compare to being a fan and watch the game but you didn't pull any bets. Still there is fun and adrenaline rush, but it can't be compare when you risk and you will be emotionally involved specially if the games are very close and you don't know if your bets are going to win in the last minute.

We will get pleasure, satisfaction and feeling of pride when we watch and bet on team that we really like or make as favorite, especially if we win then all the feelings I mentioned will really be felt perfectly.
However, the most important thing is that we must be able to accept that if failure occurs or the final result does not match what we expected, because the favorite team is not always able to achieve victory.
As gamblers, sports fans, we must be aware that there are many unexpected events such as surprises, which occasionally appear and make many people feel disappointed, but everything must be accepted well.
If what is bet on wins and always wins then there will be no poor people and there will be no bookies because in betting or matches there are wins and losses and all this happens according to the ability of the competing teams.

Moreover, feeling disappointment too deeply will not be able to change anything and will only leave sadness which might make us do stupid things such as trying to get another win and betting carelessly.

Every gambler has a different experience when it comes to live gambling. There is a lot of excitement among gamblers about where they are in that bet, whether they have a chance or what mistakes his team has made, etc. They don't even make any other decisions until that bet is over. And for those who bet but don't watch live, gambling is enjoyable, they may lose or win bets but they don't have much excitement because they don't understand the conditions of gambling.

There are some gamblers who especially love sports who definitely enjoy watching sports live. Here some people bet for the enjoyment of the game so that there is excitement but many can't take that excitement.

I think this generally has to do with individual preference or interest. The decision to watch or not watch the games you bet on solely depends on individual level of comfort and emotional control. It's actually fun to watch the game unfold in your presence and see whether you win or not but not everyone can withstand seeing their money fleeing away right in front of them. Your emotion will not even allow you to concentrate on the game to enjoy the fun and judge fairly. Personally I don't like watching games that I bet on because the pain of a loss is more intense when you watch the game than when you don't watch it.

It's just like watching your own team playing and watching another team playing. You feel relaxed and less tense when other teams are playing than when your team is playing because you don't care about the outcome of the game as far is not your team playing. Any team that win is fine by you but when your team is playing, you always want them to win. That's exactly how the feeling is when you are watching the game you bet on.

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?

I find it stressful as well to watch a game or an event that I have bet on. I have mostly stopped betting on sports because it was not an enjoyable experience to be constantly anxious. I only bet significant amounts on a few big events each year and that’s it. Everything else is just small wagers just for fun between friends or in other casino games where the outcome is instant and I don’t have to sit around a few hours stressing out.

I understand that. Sometimes it is frustrating watching the game where you have money on the line. Well, don't put too much money on it. That's my only way to make it more acceptable at the end of the game, win or lose.
There are times I would seek a higher multiplier by making a parlay. I will make sure that the teams I will add are winning teams or if it is in the same game multi, I will also make sure that the player props that I will be adding are players who are consistent with their statistics.
Bet low, win high. High risk but could be profitable if you get it right. Just today my player props parlay was broken thanks to one player. Well, he is having a rough night and that happens so there's no one to blame.

It's your choice if you will continue or not, I guess I can still find fun betting and watching because I still win sometimes and those can cover my losses in the past.

Watching while having a bet is giving you more excitement and a little bit of nervous because of the money that you've risk on that game that's why whenever you watch betting game, It will give you a roller coaster emotion that you can't explain if you are supposed to be happy, sad, nervous etc. I agree to you, placing too much bet money that you can't afford to loose will give you a problem and stress, so do not pressure yourself to placed larger bet just because other people doing it, You have to follow your own instincts as well.
the main reason I bet is when I have a game of interest, and place a bet on the game am watching I will be so excited, and also the same time I will have high hopes, if I notice the game is not going in my favor I will see if I can make cash-out the most painful thing will be that you cashed out and you latter won as predicted, you will defiantly be pained, that is gambling for you and that is why it is based on prediction. and the annoying thing about betting and watching is that you will be so frustrated that you will just want things to go your way, gambling is not like that it's pure luck even if you know that this club is good. and sometimes you might not even see yourself winning and that is when you will win.  and there should be a limit to the kind of money you use in placing a bet. wasting too much with this hard economy now is not wise.

very well said, so it's better not to expect to win when we gamble because sometimes, when we don't think or worry too much about winning, that's when we get luckier. I'm not sure if others have experienced the same or is it just me? but that always happens so when I place a bet, I don't think about anything, I just let luck move for me.
Watching others gamble might be fun, but not much. But you will have more fun if you gamble and bet yourself so it is always better to bet yourself if you can afford to lose that bet. Because gambling is a very risky thing, if you gamble there, you have to accept losses  So it is not bad to have fun by betting the amount as per your ability. Because it can give a lot of fun. so spending some money for entertainment is not bad
I believe you've hit the nail on the head; gambling is very much appreciated when done within what you can afford and with the proper attitude. Unfortunately, there's nothing bad with experiencing fun through placing a bet, so long as you are able to afford losing the money and do so safely and responsibly.

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?
You are having this feeling because you are expecting too much ,each bet you delivered you are looking for the highest winning this is why each time you felt that way while the truth is you know that most of bets will lose if not all.

There are several people that I met in which having different strategy that they are closing their eyes before the results comes out so they will be surprised if win comes and just a little disappointed when lose.

There could be other ways, one of the biggest reason is probably he is gambling with an amount he can't afford to lose, something that we can't say we are just gambling for fun because if we lose we will consider it as a significant loss. If we are serious that's when we start risking bigger money, and we will only do that because we trust our skills to make us profitable, but unable to control our emotion or afraid to watch game we are betting, most likely that bankroll will not last as we might sooner or later panic and make stupid bets.
Yups as I am not also a believer of gambling for fun because I find that stupid pretending to be happy when you lose? or accepting losses just like that? nope that is not reality in gambling and I know real gamblers knows that long ago.risking is part of gambling and admitting that we are a loser today means we are a loser forever because there is luck that might favor us sometime.
