If you watch any live match without the betting, you will not care much which team should win the match but when you have bet on one team, the level of your interest in the game is super high.
I agree on this but what about the results which are against your expectations ? You will accept that simply or you will get emotionally failed similar to your super high emotions ? I am not in a way to mix my emotions with my money matters. I guess it would be much better to keep these two things separately so that I can lead a life without having gambling as a major controlling part. Gambling is good only when you keep it at distances.
Online betting at boring/repeated things will be having an extra advantage of not risking ourselves into gambling addictions. You can still gamble but you never need to lose yourselves into those super high excitements.
