I would say there is quite better outcome when I am gambling with my good friends and share common betting interest. They open up their own betting predictions and I also share my own, and end up collaborating with them which creates more wise bets compared when I’m betting all alone.
However, I have my own skills and strategies in gambling, but it creates a bigger opportunity to win when more heads are actually working for the win.
Not every time but yes betting with friends who also understand the game got some upper hands, though not a guarantee but like the saying 2 heads are better than one, those shared info and shared strategy can come up with the best outcome, but there's always a reserve that you can use for your own game time.
It's all about balancing your gambling and your relationship to whoever that shares the same passion.
