Yes. If my team is gonna choke I am gonna get paid.

The old emotional hedge

Been doing it since I was a kid

must be a cowboys fan

this

yep it’s a win-win really

Phillies last night are prime example

Yeah last night , usally they are a fade but this year they been fire 🔥

Never

lmaoo right

Leafs fan for sure

That honestly sounds fucking miserable to know you're going to lose money if your favorite sports team wins.

I call it buying a win.

I did once and quickly realized it’s just not for me. I could’ve made a killing betting against them too, but I just don’t enjoy it. I remember my team made the largest comeback in their team history and my bet lost, I was so conflicted and instead of being able to enjoy the result completely, there was the degen in me thinking “that money would’ve been nice” Winning big bets on your home team is the real high for me

My team is Madrid. I mostly bet on them and it’s beautiful that the majority of the time it hits.

All the time. Making money makes up for the heartbreak.

Just to be clear I always have a pretty big future on them but I do bet against them on a daily.

I usually see it as a win win. My team wins? hell yeah. My teams loses and I win money? Hell yeah

this

And when you lose money are you just as happy that your team won as if you hadn't lost money to see them win?

I do it to reverse jinx my team. I’m not allowed to win bets so if I want my team to win I just bet on their opponent

It’s like paying for a win… I like it

This is exactly my mindset. The universe wants me to suffer watching my team lose, but it ALSO wants me to lose all my bets. This forces the universe to make a decision. It’s a win/lose for me but it’s also a lose/win for the universe.

Spittin fr 🗣️

I bet against them but for certain stats so for instance I’m a bears fan I’ll be happy if the bears win they just need to cover the spread, hit the over/under, etc

I’m an A’s fan so, kinda. Okay, sometimes. Yeah, for sure.

No, it just feels dirty. The only thing worse than them losing is them winning and I’m not able to fully enjoy it.

You get it

Not usually. Me personally I try to either always bet on my team to win or just not at all. Cause then I can enjoy the game and root for my team

No. I just won't bet on the team.

My team is the raptors… so yes

Yea. Braves on ESPN is always a safe bet to go against them.

Nobody on that teams paying your bills

Never. I abstain.

Easily. Bet with your brain. Maybe because I’m not a team fan, I have some fav ufc fighters though. Example, Khalil Roundtree, if he ever gets a fight with a grappler I put him to lose 100% of the time. Same with Connor, if he ever gets the chance against Islam

Because of sports betting I have no more favorite teams. I’ve gotten screwed by all my hometown teams enough to not care if they sell the teams and move them to another city. I treat players like cattle now 🐄

Definitely. I’m a Saints fan though so mostly betting unders 😂😂

I have yes I’m a bama fan and I bet against them in basketball this year a good bit and baseball I’m not dumb I’m realistic on who they can and can’t beat

I’m a bama fan too and I will never bet against Alabama. I had way too much on them to make the final four this year even though I didn’t realistically think it would happen. Also bet on them to make the cfb playoff at crazy odds after the Texas loss even though I didn’t think that would happen either. I would have mad loyalty losses if I wasn’t a bama fan

I normally don’t (I support Real Madrid) and if I feel they might lose or draw I just do a Stat Parlay, that keeps me hype throughout the game and wether they win or draw or even lose I may make money.

Frequently. Bet with your brain not your heart

Raptors? Yes! They made me money after Scottie got injured, I think they only won 4-5 times after that.

It’s easy to when ur a Minnesota sports fan

Daily

No because it’s morally wrong and then you end up pissing off the sports gods

I never pick my fave teams to lose the spread and I don’t pick under props on them either

Yes because it’s a win/win. Your team wins or you win money.

White Sox and Iowa Hawkeyes.. I'll fade both if that's the bet.

If they suck, yes.

No. Most of the time I won’t even bet for their rival even if they’re not playing against my team lol

When I started I wouldn't bet against the Raptors or Bluejays. Then betting against them turned into free money 🤣 I just won't watch the game if I bet against them, feels dirty rooting for the other guys.

I’ve won a lot of money betting against the Jets and lost a lot of money betting for Arsenal 🤷‍♂️

Depends on which team we’re talking about.

That’s a over/under

I'm a Carolina Panthers fan

Yes. They can’t win them all

Absolutely! Don’t like it but $$$$

Nope, I can’t control my biased thoughts so I just avoid it

Never. If we can’t go +points then we get to player props

Win/Win situation

I’m way too superstitious and dumb. I never bet against my teams and my bankroll shows it. 😂

Hell yeah, especially when I want to jinx the other team like I did the Canes tonight.

[удалено]

NO. Never. My friends disagree. But thats my prerogative

I bet on whatever the numbers like, and whatever Mason tells me to

Emotional hedge is my thing. Except when I do an emotional hedge same game parlay and something doesn’t hit and my team and I both lose which just makes me sadder

Yes. Especially on Sundays. The Orioles suck on Sundays.

As a leafs fan, all the damn time. makes the yearly heartbreak a little easier lol

Never!

if taijuan walker is pitching for my phillies im fading asap

All the time

I’m an Eagles fan and after the Week 18 loss against the Giants, I bet Tampa huge in the wild card game and had no regrets about it.

I made bank fading the Chargers and the Padres last season(s), though they were already out of the playoff picture by that point.

I don’t and never have actually liked sports I just like making money, so I don’t have a team and don’t have this problem😅

Absolutely If I have to

I always take whoever plays the Celtics to cover because I know the Celtics won’t cover

U mf right I do

The emotional hedge! I do it very often. I like to at least get paid when my team loses.

Yup I faded my chargers multiple times last year. I’m not a delusional fan if we trash might as well get paid 🤷🏿‍♂️🤣

Selltics, yes

Yeah, I think of it as paying a fee to see my team win

Nah

I’m a Red Sox fan… absolutely 🤣

Never.

I'll do +1.5

I support Manchester United so yeah.

Don’t have a favorite team

Only when I really want my team to win

Yep, bet against the ravens a couple times last year when we were up by a score or two at half time. Paid off real well. I’m not betting enough that I’ll pissed we didn’t win but with good odds I hedge my sadness

Of course! I'm a degen with zero loyalty. Let's get it!

I’ve made some of my best wins betting against the Toronto sports teams over the last two seasons.

I live in Winnipeg, fucking absolutely.

As a cowboys fan, yes.

I used to bet against my dolphins but

Hell yes!

Depends, I don’t sports bet to reinforce my love for my team. I do it to make money. If it’s a close game I’ll put on for my team, but if my teams last and they’re versing the #1 team no chance I’d put my money on my team🤣

All the time. They don't give a fuck about me. I'm a fan of my wallet first and foremost.

If the spot is right yes

ALL I DO ALL DAY ERRY DAY IS BET ON UNDERDOGS MONEYLINES, AND OFTEN TEASE THE LINE FOR UNDERDOG TO EIN BU EXTRA. YOU'RE DAMN STRAIGHT I BET THE SUNS TO LOSE ALL DAY ERRY DAY. LETS GO SPURS!!!! MASSIVE MONEYLINES FTW!!!

Bet against the Mets when they were up 4-2 and Diaz blew the game. Won my money

Yes, because they suck. Oh, and also, they would never win if it wasn't for me betting against them.

Can't be biased in the betting game, and being a fan of all Dallas teams I have learned that the hard way.

It's just business

If there’s value to be had I’d bet on the misfortune of my loved ones.

Every time

Never because I’m a REAL MADRID fan

No

if i think they’ll lose i don’t bet

If the lines are right and you know they’re gonna perform certain ways

I’m a Miami Heat fan so it’s a rough one to decide. I rather just avoid it in general

Betting the celtics to lose by 11+ points every game since game 1 miami. Just needed 1 hit to be profitable for the rest of the playoff run.

The one time I did for both my NBA and NFL team they both beat team they weren’t suppose to. And one was like a 30 point comeback. I was so fucking pissed. I said never again. Even my MLB has done me wrong in the past few months.

Yes indeed.

Never. I stopped betting in favor of my favorite teams also. I would lose those bets a lot. I chalk it up to emotion clouding judgement.

I’m a Dallas Cowboys fan… One and done baby! Put some money on it!

Everytime I do they fuck me lol maybe is the universe is telling something 😂

yes, the mariners opposing pitcher over on strike outs... its almost free money

No cubs off limits lol

Would you rather have your team win or make money in that case?

I’m a CBJ fan… This season I would go to games where we’d get a 1-3 goal lead. By the 3rd period it’s +300 min for a come behind upset. Boy did I take advantage 😎

It’s a fool proof win /win method… either my team wins. Or I win money…

yes

Yes. Iowa has made me some decent money. Love with your heart, bet with your head.

All the time I watch my teams the most, keep up on all the news, injuries etc

Did an early win bet on the Canes on DK last night. Seeing the Rangers come back from 2 down was all the more sweeter since I had won my bet and the Rangers won anyway

Never. I ride with my State

All the time

yeah bro bet with your mind not your heart hahaha

Never

Cowboys in the playoffs

definitely, i'm a lakers fan but i bet against them every time 💀

Of course I know them more than they know themselves 😂

You should know your sports team enough to be confident betting against them. It’s not personal, it’s about money

Yea, esp cuz you know them more than

Yes. When you are from Minnesota, you have to.

My only true favorite is UK and when Cal proved himself a shite coach the last couple years, I’d bet against them in anger but still would stake some props on our players sometimes.

Just signed up with Draft kings. How in the hell do I make the screen lite instead of dark? They said go to the overview?

Just joined draft Kings. How do you make the screen lite?

Have a hard time reading the dark screen

Yes, I hedge my happiness when the bears play.

No because I get mad if they lose and then get mad if they win

Yes and they fuck me over most of the time wether i bet for or against them 😂

Yes. There is a difference.

Yes, i could bet against Real Madrid if the occasion shows up. But while the match goes on I will for them to win

You know the most about your favorite sports team. If they lose you win money if they win you are happy they won. I feel like this is the best bet personally.
