Most probable reason is they beleive that they know that game much better and also about the team they are going against so it's most likely they will bet on the sports they are watching most often. Anyway 50/50 chances games look like easy chance but its not cause one small move from the least favourite can make them to move in a comfortable position. But the reason is simple we believe we know the game deeper than most people out there.

Yes, you are right, sports betting is actually easier for people who know how to play and even know about the strength of the team or athlete we are choosing to bet on, while we can get wins easier because we can guess than playing sports, which is difficult for us to guess how to play, let alone to win. the game is also difficult to predict that's why most people prefer certain sports betting.

I also prefer betting on certain sports, for example football, because why do I bet on sports that I don't know how to play and also don't recognize the strength of the team or athlete we choose, to be honest, I have tried betting on UFC bets but I don't know the strength of the opponent, so I have lost. on that bet. lol

I am just curious to know why people favor one Sport over another, when it comes to betting? Is there specific Sport that increase your win chance or do you bet on those Sport for other reasons?

I know most people will favor certain Sport, because they know more about the players or the teams and information is power, when it comes to betting... but some Sport are 50/50 when it comes to the outcome of the match. (One lucky punch or kick can make a underdog a champion)

Gamblers have a tendency to bet on certain games. Because they can use both their skills and knowledge. Having a good idea about the team players in particular is able to have a deep understanding of the team statistics. Gamblers can be ahead if they place bets with these factors in mind. Moreover, many gamblers may have a personal attraction to certain teams. Where they feel comfortable for betting. When a gambler has a good knowledge of all aspects of a team, he can easily bet on that team. But it is true that those gamblers do not always win in betting. Because there will be risk in gambling, moreover, it is not always expected to win or lose based on information and data because at present the number of fixed matches are not less.

We believe that once we identify the sports that are no longer a 50/50 chance, we can gain an advantage, and focusing on just a few sports in sports betting increases our chances of success. The reality is, the majority of sports bettors are losing money, which is enough for sportsbooks to stay in operation for a long period. If we are one of the few who can make a living in sports, then we can live a wonderful life as a successful professional sports bettor.

Those who are serious in sports betting are dreaming of making a living in sports betting, that's my ultimate goal as well.

I couldn't agree more! I once made the mistake of betting on a sport that I knew absolutely nothing about. I thought I was feeling lucky that day, so I decided to take a chance. Well, let's just say that luck wasn't on my side that day. I ended up losing a significant amount, and it was a tough lesson to learn.

That experience taught me to never bet on anything unless I knew what I was doing. It's not worth betting on a sport if you don't know the rules, strategies, and players involved. The same goes for making any kind of wager, if you don't know who or what you're betting on, then there's no way it can end well!

As long as that was a one-time thing then I do not really see anything wrong with that, after all we are talking about gambling here, a hobby in which we take risks just to have a good time.

But I do agree that when it comes to sports betting it is better for you to do so in a sport you know very well, or that at least you like to watch, this way you can significantly increase the fun you get when watching the different matches, as now you are watching your favorite sport not only because you like it but now you have something at stake, increasing your fun manyfold.

I guess it will be more odd if you just bet even if you don’t know the whole thing about that sport, it’s like putting yourself at its losing end even if the betting has not yet started. That’s why most of us here would only want to bet on the games that we are also familiar of, on the game that we have certain favorites that are most likely to win and manipulate the game. You know, it’s useless to bet and put your money at risk when you don’t have any idea of the game you played, you are increasing your risk of losing, even though some games like this would still end up uncertainly.

Some gambler bet on someone else sports bet tips though. Its kind of leap of faith upon seeing the tipsters or those who offer fixed matches thread which a gambler will just dive into it.

I have some experience in this from baseball to soccer. I know how the game is played once upon a time when were kids we were influenced to watch events in school but national or international teams is out of my league. Didn't stop me from betting the sports though.

Of course it would really be that something that interesting on betting on sports
which is something that you do have the idea on how its been played and you do know on a certain team or player compared when you do make out bets
which you dont even know on who they are or on whats the complete mechanics of a certain game.

in my opinion, the ideal is always to bet on the games of teams that the person knows very well, for example in the Spanish league ( la liga ), the ideal is always to bet on real madrid and barcelona because it is easier to get a lot of information about each player of the team, in the Italian league (serie A), the ideal is to bet on games involving Inter, Milan, Napoli, Juventus, Roma and Lazio, because it is easier to know how each player plays in these teams, in Franca PSG, in Germany Dortmund and bayern, in premier league liverpool, tottenham, chelsea, manchester city and united, arsenal and now newcastle. that's because when the person focuses on knowing everything about the top teams then it becomes easier for the person to bet

when people start placing bets on many teams and they don't do it constantly, something for example today they bet on aston villa against everton, 5 days later they will bet on wolves against wes ham so that person has very little time to analyze and knowing everything about the teams he is going to bet on, is very different from always choosing only the games in which the big teams are involved against other teams, for example in an arsenal game against wolves, the person already knows all the arsenal players, its strengths and weaknesses and with that you only need to do a little analysis about wolves

I kinda like betting on eSports like Fifa as the games are much shorter and the odds can be much greater, however you really have to get a feel for the skills of each player and get the bet timing correct. If one player is able to get a couple goals ahead then it gives them a huge advantage (much like regular football) and the price is much better than you'd get in a real world match. Surprisingly not many sites have them and I've found that the ones that do can be a bit erratic - not always having them on a regular basis or stopping them for long periods, the logistics of these games must be difficult to manage? If you follow the teams and players outside of the betting site, sometimes you can make strong picks.

I suppose the reason esports are not being offered by casinos with the same urgency than traditional sports has to do with two main reasons.

The first one is that right now they are not as popular as their regular counterparts, but the second reason is that the game itself and the controls change with each iteration of the video game, so casinos do not really have enough information to give precise odds to those matches, meaning that even the casinos are taking a risk by offering those bets, as it could turn out they are severally underestimating some players or not giving enough weight to some of the mechanics of the game and this could cause them to lose money over the long run.

Certainly, there are specific sports that people love for their entertainment, or because they love it so much doing it at the same time, and sometimes because of popularity and some because it is easy understanding it, and sometimes there are certain aspects of sports to be likable for them to gamble in it, for me I have certain sports that I am betting on I can give certain sports and a betting style that I am doing with it

NBA - surely many are familiar with the NBA and everyone loves the sport of basketball well if you are knowledgeable about most teams in the league certainly for those teams that are entering a certain seed and for me the play-offs is a perfect opportunity for you to enter in betting in it, and right now because the teams are now set to take on familiar teams and if you have certain knowledge about the teams then this will be effective,

Esports - for this certain kind of field there are many to choose from we have Dota, Dota 2, CSGO, Counter-Strike, and many more I think this will also require certain knowledge about the game, then looking at the rankings and picking a side in this one you just have to pick certain teams that have a certain chance of winning,

Boxing - Certainly asking many people in the field about a certain fighter you can get information about it this certain sport we all know many well-known fighters which is why this is certainly the easy one to be the favorite for many gamblers they also put as much money on certain fighters that can show potential in winning,

For sure this would really be that where it does have huge fan base plus having that huge numbers of bettors considering about the popularity but somewhat it does have different
numbers if we do speak about esports but its not something that wont really be falling behind if we do speak about numbers. Of course it would really be that something that interesting on betting on sports
which is something that you do have the idea on how its been played and you do know on a certain team or player compared when you do make out bets
which you dont even know on who they are or on whats the complete mechanics of a certain game.

So its better you do bet on someone you do know and something you've been aware on what it is rather than on betting on games which you arent
even knowing on what it is.It does make sense but if you do come after for the money then you would be probably going into other side of things.

I think all our choices about life are determined by psychological factors. My childhood years were spent among people who were interested in football. That's why I'm interested in football. That's why I bet on football matches. If I had had a different childhood, I would have had different tendencies and orientations. Of course, I also like to follow other sports. But none of them can take the place of football. So if I was born in India, I would probably like cricket more. Some sports and teams are like religion. Cheesy

I like the last thing that you said but the only difference about religion is that some of them are strict and won't allow you to play gambling. Imagine if you are born as a Muslim, do you think you can enjoy football as whole (100%)? No, because you can't place a bet on your favourite teams however the actual sports can still be allowed so you still can enjoy it at 80 to 90% level. In south east countries , cricket is the most famous game but in other countries they also have their own favourite game. Pretty interesting, isn't it?

But like you said, we can still have an extra favourite and there are people who are not into the mainstream. Like me, basketball is famous in our country but I am not addicted to it.

I agree with everyone, we like to bet on the games we enjoy. There is a big collaration between which games you watch even if you wouldn't bet on it and the games you wager on as well. I like to bet on soccer, baskeball and f1, those are my three vices and I watch all of them.

I watch soccer anytime I can when they are available, I watch NBA a lot later than that because it's after midnight here anyway, and I watch f1 when it happens which is only 23 times a year so it's not really that much of a race. All of which combined means that they do not really get on top of each other that commonly neither. Not that it never happens, but I prefer the rarer one in that case to watch so I would be able to go back and watch the highlights of the other one. I bet on them that way most of the time.

You bet on what you know. As many people are watching football and also prefer it, there are more people that prefer football betting. As for me, I personally prefer football betting because I am more exposed to football and it is what we mostly talked and argue about.

It is what you know that you will bet on. People that know much about other sport also bet on it. If you know about tennis, you will find yourself betting on it too. So is basketball too and others.

Right. You know there are high chances to win if you bet on the game you really know and the game you have high background on it. Otherwise, when you bet randomly, it’s like you only bet to lose and nothing more. But if you think you know every game in sports betting, so there’s no need to bet in a single game specifically. You can just bet in all of them, rest assured that you have your favorite player or team in every game so you can make your best bet and with luck aside, you can win on what you bet.

People gamble on sports they have the most knowledge on, I don’t think there’s much more to it than that. Obviously you have a much better chance of winning money betting on sports that you know a lot about.
Sometimes we look too deeply for answers but they’re really quite obvious.

Exactly! why do we need to choose different sports if we are already comfortable for one. As long as we can get profit from it it doesn't matter if we need another sports. Also, it will be a waste of time we all have a work or other activity and it is better to make a bet when you know more about the team or a person you are betting with. It is a waste of time trying to learn new things when you are comfortable with one.

I totally agree with that, Mahanton. I think a lot of people bet on sports for the entertainment value as well. It adds excitement to the game and makes it more engaging to watch. And if you happen to win some money along the way, that's just a bonus. Wink

And, it's not uncommon for people to make bets based solely on the team that's heavily favored, without considering the odds or potential for an upset. Especially newbies. But in reality, there's always a risk involved and that's why it's important to do proper research before placing any bets. It can definitely increase your chances.

Not only having that adding up chances or odds of winning but also it do really adds up the entertainment and enjoyment you do seek on which it would really be just sensible on having that kind of dealing instead
of doing or choosing up some sports picks which you arent that even aware on what it is. Although there are people who do really jump into other sports and make bet on it because they would be simply sticking out
to those heavily favorite and believe that they could really be able to make money or wins on high chances which its not proven out but for sure this is one of the main reasons
on why people do really love on having that crossed sports selection despite of lacking that knowledge.

The most probable reason is obviously what you described yourself, a person tends to bet on a sport that he understands pretty well, has been following for years, knows how the teams perform, who are the best players in each team, etc. That definitely makes your chances higher of winning a bet since you will probably have knowledge about both teams involved.

I think sports where a single thing can influence the whole result are based on your luck but even those sports can be mastered like boxing, I know its a sport where as you said, a single kick or a punch can change the game, but it doesn't happen all the time, and experienced boxers will probably win most of the times again novices.
