Football is also my area of gambling but not that I win that much sometimes I just play based on my team am supporting and because of this I always use funds that even if my prediction goes wrong it won't kinda affect me although sometimes I do enjoy a little of virtual games but mind you it can be really frustrating some times especially for the gambler that think they can actually earn from it
I also gamble on football and fighting sports, I will choose a favorite club or fighter when my analysis determines that they have the potential to win, although sometimes I don't bet on my favorite team when I doubt they won't win against a star class club, So betting is not an obligation but I like to enjoy all the gameplay of my favorite team even if the results don't match my expectations of winning. If we bet using a low budget to enjoy the match then it won't be frustrating because even if we lose we won't experience high losses from that bet, but we have to record some analysis of the match results for reference analysis in future sports betting.
