In sports betting specifically football is your decision to cash out or wait it out until the end of the game based on the opinions of other people if you shared your bet slip with them while the game is on?

Some people after they have placed their bets on several games may be so excited to share their bet slip with their gambling community who helps to monitor if games they bet on are winning or they are losing. In some cases if all the other games were a win and it remains like two more games on the slip, they may feel pressured to cash out based on the opinions of their friends. In this case do you give in or hold out based on their opinions?
Speaking from my own personal experience.  I do not need a gambling community, friends or family to help me monitor my bets. If they do that on my behalf,  it still won't take away the pressure I would feel while the games are still on. I usually gamble with amounts i can afford to lose so, i do  not feel that much pressure that will make me give out my betting slips to other people to monitor if i am winning or not. My decision on whether to cashout or hold longer depends on my mood for that day and that decision is solely mine and not influenced by other people's opinion.
