I just had a really bad day gambling today with Roma losing a ticket for me and their odd was 1.20 and they were playing against the last place of Italian Serie A. I thought a bad day and move on and played another ticket this time I choose Brondby as they were playing at home against a team they had beaten almost always and the odd was 1.35. This was even worse as Brondby lost 2-4 at home to a team quoted from the bookies at 8.5

Now I am not an expert in gambling but this day was a really eye opener for me, you can never win in gambling. Imagine when you can't win in lotto , soccer betting or whatever you call it, you don't have a chance in slots.

I feel you bro. I actually could not contain the grin on my face with how I was picturing the excitement on your face when you were placing the bet and the disappointment in your face when you were writing this. It is gambling, you can only try to play safe and get lucky, but that is all it is about, it is certainly luck. This is the reason why it should never be a thing for anyone to expect so much from gambling. As far as I am concerned, nature will always do its thing in as much as we try to predict the future based on past events. The only thing is to just accept your losses and move on.

It doesn't mean you cannot win in gambling mate, i know what that feels, when a favourite team with low odds lose. Of course all sports bettors will know that and experienced that.

That means you have been frustrated and pessimistic. Even I often experience this and I don't stop and continue playing or gambling on the same sportsbetting. This is natural, because each team has a different density of match schedules and team strength as well as different stamina for each team even per individual. So if you have been disappointed because the team you picked played poorly and did not match expectations then it was natural, I just believed that was a bad factor that was very far from the luck factor. Therefore, I often say that luck in any gambling factor is needed in addition to strategy. Make the incident as your learning and experience when betting or picking a team in a match.

It happens some time in sports gambling some matches give upsets but if you play with same budget in all matches then in long run you will be in profit. This is just a good experience for you that low odd dont mean that the team will win surely. Do some more analyses of the matches you are going to bet and get more better odds to bet.

Yeah, it's better.
Good analyses generally results with winnings if you made it correctly.

Well its just not your day, it's possible to win gambling but it need a good strategy and luck, in long run you can't win but for short term there are possibilities, in this case OP is just really unlucky, sportbetting is the type of bet, that have a high chance of winning, there are people make a living using sport betting, although the outcome of the game is not 100% predictable, but with data and analysing skill, the odd of winning from sport betting supposed to be high

So true. Gambling is never about winning but luck or chance or a combination of both. So many people waste not only their precious time but huge amounts of money for almost insignificant gambling gains. Gambling is a bad habit.

Actually, you can win in gambling, there are a lot of people that do it regularly, it's called being lucky. However, there are also opportunities in betting where you simply cannot lose (matched betting). Sometimes websites will have heavily mismatched odds which allows you to bet on both sides and the draw, and still come out positive. Obviously, these opportunities are few and far between but with a keen eye they can be spotted.

You will never regretting your losses as big lost if you realize the risk from gambling and depend on your luck even though you pick low odds but there is no guarantee the results will be according to your predictions but that mean you still can able to win gamble but indeed luck will be main factor to do so because if you don't have it then whatever predictions or method would you use then it will be so useless

Well the best odds you'll get would be 50/50 or something with better odds but almost no profit when you win. So you really only win if you enjoyed your play time regardless of the result. Well winning money is a big bonus of course.

You can still win, you just did the wrong move of just betting according to your choice.

I know its hard to say that you can still win after all of those losses that you've come with. But that's how gambling works, you can expect the unexpected and not all the time the game is with you. Should I say, gambling isn't for everyone.

I completely agree with this statement. Gambling's not going to make you money in the long term due to house edges, as I'm sure you're aware of, but it is indeed possible to win in the short term; I'm currently overall positive in eSports betting and a little bit in dice. You just happened to be unlucky today.

I've been dicing and its giving me some wins though I don't fully rely and dependent to those wins because I only dice for fun when I've got a time to waste and really bored at my sit.

Depends on what you mean by "winning".

I think what he meant by that is to be ever successful in gambling.

Depends on what you mean by "winning". You can't win money if you play god of war neither but you will have fun if you like those sort of games or even in games like pubg or fortnite you probably can't "win" unless you are in esports or twitch because even if you win a round its still provides you with nothing of value (maybe some boxes you can sell).

Moreover, when it is about gambling people keep thinking that you can't "win" money, you do not have to win money, the point of casino was to have fun and entertain yourself and with a slight chance of winning money of course, if you gamble for fun and not for making money than you can "win".

You don't have to rely too much on gambling to get money. In that game gambling is a 50-50 chance of winning or losing. Enjoying the game do not carry lust, concentration, and focus that will make us better and maybe that victory will come to us.

I know how it feels! I experienced such similar bad betting day too. But, lets move on! We just unlucky by choosing the wrong games. And to be honest, odds, looks better team, etc don't always give us the expected result. Sometimes, big teams can play worsely too against the weaker's one and it happens frequently.

1.10 to around 1.20 are normal odds for when a big favorite team is expected to win.

When odds drift lower to around 1.35 it sometimes means an underdog team has a better chance to win than normal.

I do not follow soccer(football in europe). What you describe often happens in american team sports NBA, NFL, MLB. Books and oddsmakers have contacts which feed them inside information. If teams are having drama issues or personality clashes behind the scenes. Or if they're simply being lazy and not taking games seriously, oddsmakers are aware of it and it can be reflected in the opening odds rising or decreasing.

I think it is possible to win in gambling but a person may have to spend time analyzing odds and conditions which lead to teams winning/losing to make accurate predictions from available data. Sometimes it could come down an underdog team that wants to win very badly going up against a favorite team that doesn't care if they win or lose and simply wanting it more could make the difference.

I have to deny your statement, I won so much on slots that you can`t imagine. Slots were so good to me, yes I had loses, in slots you can have a long losing streak, but if you are aggressive gambler like I am, when you rise your bets and you hit some bonus on higher bet with couple mBTC bets you get bitcoins. Nothing can beat big win on slots, when you win you can win huge! Sports betting on other hand is totally different from slots. Favorites doesn`t win all the time, if you think they do you are wrong. 15 years ago and probably more when I started with sports betting I thought I can make a parlay with favorites and win every week, I was wrong, every week some favorite lose. Be strong and when you lose next time make some higher bet, push the limits, that`s why bankroll management is so important, you need to know how much you have, to be prepared to lose couple times and to have money again to push.

I'm a Roma Fan, sorry my team made you lost, we have serious mental issues, mainly because of our coach.

Anyway the problem you have is the odd, do you think betting on favorites will bring you to success? it doesn't. The odds are studied such way, in the long term you will loss because they pay you less then what statistically you deserve. If you will ever want to get back in INVESTING IN SPORTs (AND NOT GAMBLING), here you can find a guide i've wrote on how to be a profitable contrarian bettor!

You know, what's funny? Yesterday I was doing exactly the opposite, was betting with high odds: 3.30, 2.52 and 4.50, and I lost all those bets too.

It's not that you don't have a chance, though. You can lose even with low odds in your unlucky day, and you can win more than expected when you are lucky. It's a game. We, me and you, were just unlucky yesterday. What we can learn from it is that as long as such things happen, we should never risk more money than we can afford to lose, because we never know when this unlucky streak hits us.

The match result between AS Roma and Chievo is indeed unexpected, the players of AS Roma have managed to score two goals in the first half of the match, and I guess many people will think there is little hope left for Chievo to get any points from this match, but surprisingly Chievo was able to score two goals against AS Roma in the second half and the match ended in a 2-2 draw.

You should not try to chase back your losses and make more bets on another match, as the final result in sports betting can be quite unpredictable sometimes, so it is better to take gambling as a form of entertainment and just gamble with the amount of money that you can afford to lose.

If someone plays only to win or just to make money then answer is yes their are higher chances that you will end up losing in the long run. But for those who want to play for enjoying their time or relaxing then they would not bother much if they lose or win.
