I used to avoid competitions and preferred to just place my own bets on sports to see how it goes. I was glad to win and sad to lose, and it was between me and sports. In autumn, however, I entered a Sportsbet EPL prediction competition, and after months of it going on, I must say that I do find it engaging when various people make predictions for the same games, and then I can see how other people are making their decisions and how they are performing as well. At first, I thought I had no chance there, but I'm currently lucky to be in top-10, so now I do care about remaining there

Do you prefer being on your own with your matches and bets or do you like to take part in various tournament to boost the competitive spirit of it all?

I am definitely a lone bettor now, I used to chat with people and that made me stay in the casino a lot more, back in the day chat places weren't 100 message in 10 seconds type of places and we talked with friends and basically it was the same group every day and we were having fun and this caused me to be there almost every day, this is why I decided not to do it anymore, now I am focusing more on things like just gambling and going away, if I stay there even when I am not gambling that would hurt me a lot more and that is why I do not think that it should be there for now.

This doesn't mean that I would not talk with some people, I would still talk with them if I know them or if they are saying something that gets my interest, but I do not really gamble in group settings that well, not even poker, I just gamble all alone and feel better about it.

You can find some really fun people in those chats especially the ones that tell you all the stories and things they have experienced during their gambling journey, but they can be sad places too as you read about all the money those people have lost over the years, however it is good that now you are gambling on your terms, personally I like gambling with others and create our own internal competitions among each other but that is something you can do only with your real friends, when it comes to those people on the chat you can only gamble on the competitions the casino creates and the level of skill may be different among each other generating results that are not interesting.
