Is this one of the most frustrating things.....
Betting on sports ?
I get home and miss placing a golf bet by 2 minutes. Now following the leaderboard the player I would have backed has a huge lead on his opponent with not long to go. Sometimes the bets you don't place are the most frustrating ones  Also would be interested to hear peoples opinions on when u don't take a bet, do u root for that bet to win or lose ??? I always want it to lose, then I don't kick myself for not taking it. How about you ?

Thats happened to me plenty of times I always want it to lose but it usually wins. One time I missed out on a 5 team parley by a few minutes all 5 teams covered easily.

This is the worst when it happens. I do not root for the team to lose, I just get mad because I missed putting my wager in. For the record everytime I did not get my bet in, I would have won all the times it has happend.

Another frustrating thing in MLB, 3 balls no or 1 strike/s with a man on and the batter decides to be the hero and grounds/flies out. Seen it twice today, both my teams

Yes agreed, but not in this case the pitch he got, was a sinker that was way low.

Ever bet the wrong side by mistake and lose?
Conversely, betting the wrong side by mistake and winning may be better than sex. Maybe I should lay off the alcohol..... NAAAH!!!!

How about the "meaningless" 3-pointer or free drive to the basket at the end of a game?
