I don’t like gambling, but I love sports. I will very occasionally engage in “emotional hedging”, where I bet AGAINST the team I want to win.

If my beloved team wins, I’m ecstatic and don’t really care I lost $50. If they lose, well, at least I have $50.

I tried this but I'm also hopelessly superstitious so I could only do it once. But I think it was I who ruined Arsenal's chance to win the prem when Leicester took it
