While in a football view centre last night, some of the football fans were arguing with the opposite football fans strongly defending their teams.

There one of the team guy said... Yes we loosed the match but that does not mean I will deny my team for that because the nature of football is that you would win somedays and you looses somedays too.
So he say... I love my team to the core that I will always stand by them and even if it is obvious that they were going to loose a match, I will still bet in support that they would win the match.

Question: Can you have so much love for your team to behave like this guy that even when you know your love fans team would loose a match, would you still further stake on the match against your team?
Remember that we are catching funs here and whoever chasing after profits is at its own will.

My buddy has a different view from you on this. He calls it the "happiness hedge." Basically, he bets against the team he's rooting for (at small amounts). If they lose, he's happy because he wins some money. If they win, he's happy because his team won. Feels like some gambler's logic to me lol but for him it works. I guess the main principle he follows is that he never puts in too much money to the point where he'd be sad if he lost.
