One thing I personally noticed is that watching the games live actually affects my mindset, whether it’s excitement or frustration, it can mess with my decision-making, So one tip I’ve learned for long-term success is this.. analyze the game beforehand, but avoid watching it live. It helps keep your emotions in check.
I am really surprised on this your statement of not being able to analyze better while watching a live game. For me its the opposite, I really like to watch live matches whenever I have the opportunity, because it helps me analyze the game better and it also helps on how to gamble on such teams. Although analyzing statistics is very good too, but I think watching the match make me analyze better. I would have agreed with your statement if you had said you don't like watching a match you gambled on because of the tension, but aside from this reason, I think watching the match helps me analyze better.
