World Cup 2022 | Ending Betting Early

Similar to the Belgian League and the previous European Championship, I am covering the World Cup with Previews and bets to increase my personal discipline.

I haven't been making preview posts on the world cup these past days and I honestly never really got into it. Usually, I like these kinds of periods where pretty much 100% of the focus can be on something for a while. The combination of different factors now has me just skipping on this world cup barely following it in the background.

  • I kind of could use a break from football after 17 weeks of following the Belgian League watching every match where so far the results have been really good.
  • I don't feel like I really have the needed edge on international football or really want to go the distance to get to a point where I really believe to have an expected edge.
  • Things started out really bad betting wise where most bets felt like a total coin flip or just plain bad and when there were good bets they often also somehow lost. This made me end up with a -1.053 unit loss after 26 bets only winning 6 of those. The good thing however is that I kept stakes small which highly limits the damage. I had also set a maximun amount that I was willing to lose in total of 2 units and I'm cutting things short before potentially reaching that.
  • Many matches have been a pure torture to watch so far as if Seraing plays against Stvv on a sunday evening after a long weekend.

So instead of continuing to what was pretty much gambling and potentially chase losses with the likelyhood to lose more as that is the way these things go, I'm just going to make the smarter choice and step back taking time off from football and betting all together to be fully ready once the Belgian League starts again. If anything, reducing losses during bad times and realizing early when it's just not good enough is a key skill to have in order to be profitable long term.

Also unlike pretty much everyone else, I don't hide during the bad times and continue to give a realistic picture on my blog what it actually takes to be profitable long term in betting. This for sure was one of those occasions.

Also I enjoy the betting aspect trying to crack the puzzle and beat the market way more than actually watching football itself. So watching matches without allowing me to place any bets is just not fun for me. Instead I will be taking these next couple of weeks and even until week 19 next year in the Belgian League to get out more working on my health taking time away from my pc.

Conclusion

The best thing for me to do is to just take the relatively small loss in this world cup and stop betting as it just was nowhere near good enough. My main bread and butter remains the Belgian league where so far this season I'm up over 8 units with +6.84% ROI after 800+ bets. Being fresh and ready once that starts again is the main goal instead of being totally burned out with football and betting after this world cup.


IMPORTANT !

Past results don't guarantee Future Results. There are very few people that are equipped financially and psychologically to handle the ups and downs of gambling on a daily basis. If you're not a professional, every instinct you have will attempt and probably will sabotage your success. Human nature runs completely contrary to being successful at gambling. These bets are posted as a way to help myself in order to stay disciplined, always hold yourself accountable if you end up following. Proper Bankroll Management can highly decrease the risk of heavy losses!
