So, I'm sure many of you have seen tipsters on this section, in your Twitter, in chatrooms and some other places - it's the people who suggest you to place bets on certain picks in sports. And maybe some of you have asked yourself a question - why they are doing it? Why they are giving us advises how to win money absolutely for free - and by doing this they decrease their own profit, since the winning pool grows bigger as people follow their tips. Can anyone explain this?
Easy answer really is there no sure tip. My own self interest in sharing my tip is that someone might also give honest feedback or at least insult my poor choice correctly, say you are totally wrong and point how I have assumed something incorrect. Then I save some money, of course thats the ideal and there is a ton of noise and fan logic!
Part of why people post a tip or just their bet is to confirm they are certain in their thinking.
Scientifically, when one makes things happen, some grandiose feelings set in. You feel you are the boss, and that you are in control and this phenomenon subconsciously helps you to win more by making better predictions. So as you give more tips and you help people win, you also get motivated to make more better predictions the next time.
Yes I agree. Also just the simple form of writing down readible text for others, its a form of revision. Juggle everything in your head and you can take silly risks, writing things down kinda alters matters
