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?

It's also fun to watch gambling, but for me it's more fun if you're the one playing, you're the one gambling. It's normal to lose in gambling, it's also normal to be disappointed there are times because we make strategies and we predict that we will win but in the end we don't, we always lose. That's normal because you're thinking of a way to win but you're really unlucky. Just don't spend your money gambling if you know you're unlucky, because there's something like that when you know you're unlucky today so don't continue.

Either way is fun.

If you are stressed when you see the game and your bet losing, you can just use some techniques that are not going to hurt you and, how?

Simple, don't watch the game and don't let yourself absorb that stress that you don't deserve. Life is too short and all you have to do is make yourself comfortable with that bet and wait.  Tongue

We also need to consider, do we bet on the games we love, or do we just bet? That's the thing that matters too, not enough is being talked about that. I mean if you are ending up with a win, that is always good, does it matter if it is a sport that you like? I don't watch tennis at all, but if I bet on a tennis game and win, does that mean anything different? I would personally be equally having fun with that.

So, the question OP is asking, for games that we should be enjoying normally as well, if we bet and have more fun, that should be on games that we would have fun anyway without betting too. Betting may enhance the fun we gain from watching it, and it really does, but if we do not care about that sport, then its unlikely betting would change that.
Without a doubt winning a bet in a sport that you like feels very different than winning a bet on a sport that you do not care about, and this is because winning a bet on a random sport does not feel like much of a win, and while you will be happy, as winning is better than losing obviously, this is a feeling that will disappear rather quickly, however when you win a bet on a sport that you love, you will feel vindicated, you will feel as if you really know what you are doing and that this is the result of your expertise on that sport, and as such the excitement coming from that win will be felt for a longer period of time.

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?

Personally, I've never seen it as a problem. Putting a wager on a sports event makes it much more enjoyable for me. Having a stake in a game is completely different than watching it without any investments (be it money or emotions, i.e. watching your national team etc).
It can be stressful, but not all feelings of stress are the same. This one is more of an excitement than a negative stress. Something like watching a horror movie when you're a kid, you're scared but don't want to stop watching.

It could be fun or it could be stressful to watch, depends on the game situation. Of course when it's a lopsided game against your team, obviously that could be very stressful to watch considering that you've also put a bet on your favorite team. But when it's in favor of your team, then it's not gonna be exciting to watch as you'd probably feel comfortable for an upcoming win. What is exciting for me to watch and place bet is when it is a close game, like for example the finals of the NBA. However, sometimes when I don't feel like placing a bet to any team because I don't like the odds, I could still actually enjoy the game, especially again if it's a close game with both team exchanging leads.
A very normal human being reaction on which it is really just that typical on the emotions that we are showing on which it would be getting in line with the things that we are currently dealing with.
We do know that it wont really be something that cant be avoided but if you are making out some choices but doesnt have that getting involved with some amounts then you wont really be able to
feel any emotion because there's no money involved on which we know that this do really add up the spice when making betting. This is why if you are a gambler whose really that a fan on
making up bets then you would be always preferring that having money would at at stake.So it would be a normal approach on where you would really be preferring into.
You can have fun watching others gamble but not bet yourself but it won't be much but if you bet yourself then your emotions will work which will give you more fun and also you will feel sad if you are more than you can afford to lose. Bet the amount and lose It. So I think you will have more fun when you gamble yourself and bet an amount instead of just watching others gamble. You won't have fun just watching others gamble. It will only attract you to gamble.
Gambling gives more pleasure than watching gambling. I think gambling is a bad addiction for me because I am more addicted to gambling than before. I feel happy when I win but when I lose  It's very difficult because in gambling I only hope to win because of which I get upset when I lose in gambling. At first I thought gambling depended on luck but now I think luck is needed along with good experience in gambling.

when you place a bet, it can disrupt your focus on the game, because when betting, only the result, the outcome, is important: winning or losing. Because of this, you may start betting but stop watching the game and instead start checking only the outcome. If excitement takes over you, then this will happen constantly and for various types of games in which the player does not even understand anything. This can happen if the player wants to win back. This is one of the options.

If you look in general, it all depends on the size of the bet; if the bet is too large, then the interest of the game can completely evaporate. I still prefer, if I bet, to make a small bet and fully enjoy watching it.
That's a way to look at things but you have to understand that it's not black and white when it comes to this, there's some people out there that can bet a huge amount of money without having any shred of anxiety that they might lose all of that money but at the same time they're enjoying the game as much as those that are betting small amounts so they can still enjoy the game without being worried that they're losing a lot of money in case the team that they've placed their bet on loses. But still, it's a matter of personal preference and the way we take things, it's so different so we disagree on some things.

I agree with you. Money really amplifies our emotions. Not just a gambler's story - its embedded in our psychology. Besides money, we bet our ego, decision-making skills, and fate.

I must emphasize responsible gambling. Know that gambling should be fun, not a financial strategy. The pleasure of betting, the rush of winning, and the pain of losing are powerful emotions, but not more important than financial security and mental health. Setting limits, recognizing the chances, and never letting the risks threaten your health are all part of healthy gambling.

While I agree that money makes gambling exciting, I prefer a balanced approach. Gambling might be exciting, but we must be responsible. Finding the sweet spot where the thrill of the bet increases the experience without harmful consequences is key.

Putting bet on a game you watch is having more waves of adrenaline. Some people find excitement in watching the betted game, others say the real fun lies in the unpredictability of the outcome. The stakes feel higher, and every twist and turn in the game becomes more thrilling. It provides the feeling of more involvement that can contribute to a more enjoyable experience. The emotional wave of wins and losses during the game can be a significant part of the excitement.
Sometimes watching the match that we choose as a bet will make us focus more on the score than the progress of the match so we don't really enjoy the progress of the match and that makes us very curious about the final result of the match.

Some people would say that being involved in watching the game allows for better decision to make during live betting. Observing the flow of the game can provide insights that might not be apparent before it starts. Some people prefer not to watch the game they've bet on, because it can be less stressful. The outcome of a bet is uncertain, and avoiding the emotional thrill associated with watching the game can lead to a more joyful gambling experience.
You are right, sometimes I do it when I see something interesting to choose after seeing a team or athlete that will achieve certain things because when we only choose bets on live betting but not see the match will not have a completely correct picture of what is happening in the arena but the results can still be wrong.

Actually watching game you bet is what makes it to be fun but some of you will choose that is not going to be fun when you bet without watching,  what I really want us to know concerning gambling is that you don't need to bother yourself since you know what to do and what not do, sometimes I do go and watch when something that doesn't relate with in gambling is happening and secondly people catch more fun when they did bot bet in gambling because they are watching the gambling because they fan such particular gambling and that is while they watch without more concentration

I am one of the fans of soccer and I quite often watch matches in almost all major competitions such as EPL, I am a fan of soccer and I quite often watch matches in almost all major competitions such as EPL, La Liga and Serie A although I mostly watch EPL and La Liga and of course there is always betting that I do to make this more exciting but when talking about watching matches and betting that i do. I personally don't pay much attention to that because I just watch what I want to watch regardless of whether I bet on other matches (if there are conflicting schedules) I think in the end it's still the same because I really like soccer and the betting that is done is only as a support for my gambling needs every week because I can't give it up.

If you want to enjoy the game you are watching, make sure you did not bet on it. Because when you watch it, you may start getting frustrated even before the game ends. Normally, if you lose, you simple lose, but when watching the game, you may be tempted to nag, complain and this can put you off mood, Making you sad even before it’s all over. Also, for most people, they could be anxious multiple times in between the match. Best thing to do is, watch another match while the one you staked on is ongoing, so you at least take your mind off it because it isn’t your mind or wish that determines the score… you’ll still see what it was meant to be anyway.

Yes if you're watching a game to chill, maybe skip betting on it. Otherwise, you might find yourself in a frustrated mood, complaining about every play. It's cool to catch another match or do something else while your bet game is happening. After all, the score's gonna be what it is, and stressing won't change that  Cheesy

We should think of gambling like once it's gone, it's gone. Treat wins as a bonus, not a paycheck. If a bet doesn't go your way, shake it off by doing stuff you love. It's all about keeping it light and remembering there's more to life than just the bets.
Someone with that kind of mentality could most likely watch a game in which they made a bet and not get frustrated if things do not go their way, and if anything they may enjoy watching the game even more as now they have something at stake other than their personal feelings about which team they may like to win, however I am not going to deny there are a lot of people that are very passionate for sports that take everything to heart, and losing a bet while watching the game in question will probably ruin their day.

I don’t think this is true. Because you will definitely be worried if the team you bet to win isn’t winning. Or maybe something else that could be done is that you could just watch a couple minutes of the match, and if your preferred team isn’t winning then you find something else doing, but if they are winning or have a really good probability from their current gameplay then it’s safe to watch. That’s when I can agree that it’s interesting to watch as you’ll be filled with smiles and joy because you know what is coming your way.

I love to watch most matches I bet on. It gives me hope that my prediction can still be right especially when the team I bet on is playing well. Also it help me to make a live prediction on that same game. This live prediction may later be the one that will win and give me back the money I have actually bet on the game before the match.
Each bettor must have his own way, some see completely what is being bet there is also with the final result only.
I myself tend to leave what I have bet because my psychology is still not enough if I see the whole match every minute. so I decided to put a bet and leave it. if I'm lucky maybe I can win and if not, I don't bet also for my mental health.

    It is naturally to feel some kind of way when you are watching the game you place bet in lose. Generally nobody likes to lose especially when money is involve. Gambling being a thing for fun still gat people feeling sad when they lose money, because when they think about the different things they would have spend the money it’s saddens the heart. I believe that what’s meant to be will be, for you sanity it’s is best to stay off watching the match you place bet on. Because expectations will be so high and once they are not delivering as usual it’s becomes an emotional game.
    As a game chance, it should be known that any thing can happen and the game can go against you, and if you are a person that can control his/her emotions you see your actions reacting to the game. What’s meant to be will be like I said earlier, you don’t necessarily have to follow up games, trust your intuition because that is what will take you far. Free your mind off games do something different, watch other games for your peace of mind.

Well, each person sees things in different ways, when we are in one place we have to see it whether we want to or not, of course if it is a physical casino , because obviously things are like that, but if it is an online digital Casino, then we can close it , or look for Another page and be Looking at something else other than that one , but in reality it is good to See why so it is better if what we do is good, no, this does not stress me out Much, what can cause me some Anxiety is when I trade and I see how the graph has Moved and if my movie I Made or my prediction is correct and it happens a lot that I don't see it then I lose, but when I don't see it and I don't pay much Attention to it I can sometimes Win , it's like a mental question where We must learn to see things in other ways, where they do not imply that our emotions feel and are Made to the Surface in order to have good Profits, it is Something that is not good to take it as if it were a good Practice because we have to be Prepared for Everything to gain or lose.

In the casino it can be fun , in Fact when I play the Slots,  I like to see what I'm doing, it's incredible, because it's something that amuses me and since I don 't have an associated fear of Losing money there because as I've said before in other Opportunities , I'm not looking to win in the slots , but what I'm looking for is basically to Roast the time, to see it as a Service , I think many can Say that this is not something normal and that it is not good , but that's how I have fun I think we all Should have the right to have fun as we Want , because at the end of the day it is our money that we are Putting in not the money of the rest, we are responsible people and when we Decided to be in a casino it is because we want to do it Well and we Cannot stop or do Something for which We want to be Better , then in this order of ideas things will be Superior in that sense, they will Always be done better if we Assume our goals with Responsibility.
