There are a lot of people posting here. In most of threads related to sportsbetting, most user just discuss about the match, how player performed, how they could perform etc but very few person discuss about odds, chances of winning a team and other factors related to bet.
Is it possible that most people only discuss here to fulfill their signature requirement? In my case, I don’t play games at casino. I used to play back in the day but not anymore while I'm still having sportsbet on most of the matches.
Be honest and share about you whether you post only for your signature requirement or you post because you are involved in gambling & you want to know or share knowledge.

I think everyone has the potential to become a gambler and people generally tend to overestimate their ability to correctly calculate odds (or understand the context). I used to play some online poker but quickly realized that you are mainly playing with sharks because most little fish quickly empty their bankroll and abandon the game, you have to imagine that it will be true of any game of skill. It's the same with sports betting really, the bookmakers are constantly evolving and working with masses of useful historic information so it is extremely tough to be them - although their are some gamblers out there who profit from pricing discrepancies.
