I think regardless of whether you bet against the public or with other options the most important thing is one thing that understand the dangers that always lurk you at all times, because in any case defeat will always be part of the game, but I also agree with you that most likely the gamblers who are able to control themselves and their emotions are those who are already experienced enough because of course they have gone through various situations and maybe make it a lesson so they can be better as a gambler.
Regardless of any gambler's experience, everyone has different approach to auditory, vision and sensational actions. When the public are on the side of a team, they consist of both the experts and the newbies. Only a player who doesn't get moved or respond to things he's heard others say about the game would follow his decisions. Other than that, experience helps but in most vital cases state of mind controls how money is wagered on a game.
Experienced mostly the basis even gambler take side against the public with how they manage to experienced the outcome they will insist on that position hoping that both luck and the knowledge will help them to win, like what you said, there are different approachand there are different perspectives in terms of placing your bets.

Sports gambling consist of different understanding either you pick side thinking that the favorite will lessen the chance of losing or you are aiming for bigger percentage of winning, all up to your own decision and how you view the possible outcome.
That is normal when a gambler take side against the public because they think realistic about what they will pick. If they see public choose the team, they will analyze first before they join with public. But they must still remember that public can not always win so they must not use too big money even if the public believes they can win.

No one will know what will be the result so when we can be wise treating gambling as an entertainment, we can prevents the big lose. They don't have to think about other people because they must responsible to themselves and always avoids the big lose. That is why they must control themselves and not in rush to take side against the public before they analyze first and thinks much.

No accurate prediction even how deep your knowledge and how deal with all the analysis and research in terms of gambling nothing is for sure, like you mentioned you can go and bet with the public or you can go ahead and bet against the public, it's more on your own assessment and how you think you analyze everything, what is important, you did your own research and you use the amount that you are willing to let just in case the result is against you.
I agree, you'd only determine whether you did the right thing to go against the crowd favorite or not, once the game is over. Just because majority is in favor of a particular team, doesn't mean it will guarantee winning unless it is obvious perhaps the opponent's team is at disadvantage in terms of player match up. Much better to place a bet not considering whether to oppose the crowd favorite or to go along with them, but to choose depending on your analysis about the match. Everything will still fall under your luck but atleast you could minimize the risk of losing if you know your actions. Consider checking on statistics of the team or a player or if superstars are present during the game if it is a team sports. Or if you're being unsure of the possible outcome, just sit and enjoy watching. I do skip some games than to suffer from huge loss in order to avoid stress as well.
