There are a lot of chances that people can gamble, like when you try a drinking game, where you watch a movie, and you are going to drink when that character do a specific thing or something like that. I have done that, and it's entertaining but it's not that common to do anymore

I have a lot of multiplayer games in my PS4, like Tekken, UFC, Injustice, etc. My friends and I don't go to competitions, but we make our own, we start betting stuff or sometimes just money with whoever who wins the bracket.

Has anyone made a simple competition with friends and won a lot of money? Or something out of the ordinary, instead of playing in the casino but still having the chance to earn money. Share your thoughts.

I used to play Halo back when it was popular (well it still is, but you know, Halo isn't Halo anymore). I used to win a lot of money playing wagered 1v1s on Gamebattles, I think it was something like $25-50 per game and I'd win the vast majority of games as I was a level 50 in Lone Wolves.

Other than that, I used to play as part of the smash crew at my college and we'd play every couple of weeks for a small prize pot, usually around $20-30 and some gift cards and shit lol, fun times.

I am still thinking of how someone will come up with a site on basketball ending game. The game is about the last digit of the team scores. Like example Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma City Thunder score is 108 and 100. Winner is 8-0, if you picked that exact combination you win. I havent seen anyone trying that yet.

I have a group of friends and we mostly play fifa football on my PS4 console most of the time but now the game has evolved completely to the extent that we wouldn’t even play if we are not betting on who’s going to win the game.

I used to play 10 man CSGO games on ESEA for money (a BO1 5v5 game, similar to a normal match), and they usually went pretty well with everyone paying the enemy if their team lost, but things started to go downhill and such competitions have mostly stopped because people stopped paying when they lost. I wasn't really in it for the money, but just to play with people better than me to improve, and it definitely helped me get better at CS:GO.

Gambling like that I have often done with my friends who are basically just looking for fun in their spare time and not gambling to get a profit. There are many things that can be made as gambling with friends when we are together and whatever type of gambling we usually do together and what is at stake is not only money but what is a joint decision at that time, if one of us has run out of capital for bet, then we will stop playing and the results we get will usually be used together, such as to buy drinks, food, cigarettes etc.

I did that before but the feeling is different. I don't want to make money from my friends, I just feel it weird but we did some competitions before but the pot isn't too high. Its more of a friendly game and tournament, it was all about having fun not making money with them. Even with the old days when the games are only Counter Strike 1.3 and Battle Realms, we use to play only with a very small bet.

One of the multiplayer game I like to do bet with friends is NFS which is very fun to play and we can play among our friends too which kind of gambling needs our skills to win,its not a luck based game,if we can drive faster than others then we can bad the money.But it looks like childish now so not even playing those games by myself now because feeling matured. ;D

I remember when i was still on my Adolescent stage where i do make bets together with my friends as far as i remember i do play with Mortal Combat game. It might not be similar as casino games as long it do involves
money between you and your friends then it would be considered already as gambling.This is also a good bonding with your friends but i didn't experience on coming to a point where we do already involve big bets.We just remain on smaller ones yet we aren't that rich to have bigger bets.

I have done it before with some of my friends that i was made small competition with them through ps3 and the game i was played is called winning eleven and it was fun because i can satisfied my hobby playing soccer game and i can get money from it too because at the end of competition i can went to the final game and already won it

It's really different now compared to the latest one. I know Halo Infinite would be a great game but I haven't seen the whole gameplay. It represents the new saga/chapter in the Halo franchise. I have played it but not competitively like you. I guess you are one of the highest players there. I remember those times too where you go competitive with some other students in your school to wager money, it's really fun.

You have already come up with it, I think it would be an interesting game to play especially when people have already cope up with it. There could be simple rules to follow and how much is at stake limit. That's a great idea.

I think what they need right now is an escrow. I was thinking of an idea on how to solve this and become a trusted site to deposit to, just like Dota2Lounge, or something similar. Do you still play CSGO? I love playing it but not alone, with my friends. It's more fun that way.

Yeah, back when I was still living with some friends of mine at a college dorm, we used to play darts quite a lot (cricket).
We'd usually put a betting pool together and the winner of the game would receive the entire pot.

Not exactly what you mentioned, but it's similar. Besides, darts is a pretty fun game when you play it with friends.

Wow, a lot of things popped out of my mind when I read the OP. I love games but I don't call myself a gamer since I am so far on that, I just call myself a player since I just love some games that I played. There are a lot of times there that I bet on my friends like whoever win, who will be the first to die, who's gonna get the first blood (Dota), there is a lot of things we had done. Even if we are just watching a tv series, I tend to go to some of my friends there to bet what will happen or what may be the twist in the ending. It is really fun doing it. That is the time that we realized, almost every day of an individual's life, you gamble not realizing you are gambling. You make choices that has risks and you don't look at it as gambling but you look at it as a decision you had made.

Its boring to make a profit from a friend well I have done but it makes me feel bad and if it happens again just for pleasure,not to collect profits to me.By the way Not only the games we do it but we also do every news in the government politics right for example there is a Minister election and we often make a bets just for fun.

I know I won from a friend on a land casino poker table, and he remembered that for a long time lol, gambling with friends needs caution and a special group of friends who like that sort of thing, or someone gets all hurt and hates everyone.  But some people love this sort of thing, and apparently professional poker players bet on everything in their normal life with friends, it's entertainment to them.

Yes honestly it's a normal scene in the community.

Some are card games, sportsbet, mini gambling games and others stuff that was just created by imagination as long as it was gambling.

Sometimes friendly games but at some cases, other party will be involved and game will now be serious. Miss this kind of activity back then.

The problem with gambling with real games is that the winner is decided right there, there is no technological ways of gambling on game where casino can check the results automatically. For example lets say there is a website that allows people to bet against each other, you want to play fifa ?

Great you and the person agree on a match and you open up the fifa and play against each other and the winner gets the wagered amount. But wait! What if the loser doesn't confirm the bet ? What if the loser says he actually won? How could you know the result will not be tampered with ?

If there was an API system in the games where a website could check the results and give the winner the money automatically than there would have been a chance of this living up to a major way of gambling option like poker and blackjack levels of gambling and even maybe more however there is no way to correctly check the result from an API system so it is not so far has been going well.

I have done several times with friends as well and it is usually fun, and in such cases at least, you know you are putting down what you can afford to lose, they are your friends and they really are just like family anyway, so if you go ahead losing to them in any game, you would not take it personal, except that next time, you just have to up your game one way or the other. It can be daring too though and it usually comes with the same experience that you get to see in Casinos, which I pretty much believe if you do not take care, and you get yourself out of control, you may actually tend to take things too personal.

I used to play drunk games with friends. We would usually start by drinking and talking or watching a movie and then somebody always came up with an idea. Let's play truth or dare or poker when people barely were able to recognize the cards or walk straight and usually we were betting money because people do stupid things when they're drunk.
Drunk gambling is much better than normal gambling, you should try it. ;D

There many promotion oriented site focus what you are pointing here but we do not stop or control from what they are doing it. However, whether it is normal games or crucial betting kind of games. These all things depends on the investor who has the idea to invest on any gambling platforms.

As I know, many traditional gambling, betting and dice gambling sites only in the crypto platform. If you such sites which provide the normal way of gambling means please you may share in your thread itself.

Yep, by just playing Dota games here in my place, this is very common all over the Philippines where you can have 5v5 match with your friends and have some money involve so you will be more challenged playing Dota.

I remember before we travel far just to play Dota with my friends in other places and won some money because of that. This is really entertaining and it builds more solid relationship with your friends. A less risk gambling, yet the experience that you could get from this is really great.  

I have those kinds of friends too that are scared to gamble their money, but who is to blame them? It's their hard work earned money, so I understand if they don't want that. Collecting funds together for just enjoyment is what makes friends closer. For my friends that have no money anymore, sometimes we contribute so that friend, who has no money, would get the chance to play or gamble too. It's just bonding.

Hmm, I feel that too sometimes if one of your friends has no much money but you see that he is losing. It doesn't feel right, but that's what improves people. They need to know that they should up their game at the pace that our friends are playing. It's fun to have a tournament with friends and the teasing is what makes it more fun, making sure that they are a sport and not a killjoy.

I remember playing Deathmatch with my friends when it's Counter-Strike 1.3, it's really fun and with all the trash talk.

I do like Need for speed too, and I started playing that franchise when it was NFS Underground, and I only used the first starting car almost until the end of the game. But what I like most about it is the NFS Most wanted, earning stars and just running away from the police there, it's thrilling. I haven't tried betting with money on NFS, but it's interesting to do, I gotta buy that game. lol.

No, I don't make a competition or join in the network to play with the other people. I remember that I was only playing Need For Speed, but I don't compete with the other player because I know that I don't have a good internet connection because it needs a high-speed internet connection. I play until the end of the game which I became a winner. I heard that some adventure game could join with the network and the games like Warcraft, Dota and else.

Games like Dota, Warcraft will always need an internet connection because those are network-based where people will join from different parts of the world. For NFS there is no need for any internet connection there are so many levels which we can people them as many times as possible.

The problem that the house usually face in this kind of game is if the slots is not filled up. So lets say only 50% of the slots we're paid and when the game is over and someone was able to hit the correct number combination, house will pay using his own money since not all slots we're taken. It's going to be hard to refund all of them if slots are not filled.

The thing is gambling with friends while playing some games is basically fun and the idea of gambling in this case is to just add to the fun, which sometimes is all about the skills in the games you guys are playing. I would not say luck may not be a party to it sometimes too, but it is somehow still linked with your skills in the game. I have played need for speed with friends too as well, as well as FIFA, which can be quite interesting knowing you have something to lose on the table and you really want to prove yourself worthy of having the winning.

I agree with that, having a tournament with the circle of your friends but I just don't find them as a source of money if ever you know that you can take advantage of their skills in the games that you've been playing with. I also felt the trash talk when, I remember those days when I'm the weakest and I can't even play good with AWP so basically they are teasing me and asking me to use it during friendly match with small bet on it. I'm getting old, I feel nostalgia remembering those good old days.

Do your remember or you play PES soccer? I played that with friends a lot, really a lot. 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2 with miltitab, like 4 or 8 of us we make a little competition, each of us give some money and first place takes all. We start in the evening and play until the early hours next day, all night we bet against individual games, nothing big sometimes not even in money, in who will do something if they lose. That was like that until I "grow up". Now I don`t have so much free time like i had 10 years ago when I was younger, without wife and kids. now I gamble online because its open always, and when I have time I just gamble, with friends its hard to meet this days. when I can they can, when they can I can`t.

Even before I have come to know about structured form of gambling that we know today, I have known gambling to be part of our daily ife and from something so simple. In the past, growing up, we have bet on who will get home first, bet on who will finish his food first, bet on whether it will rain or not to the extent of whether we will be given money by a visitor or not. Recently, I have seen myself and colleagues bet on whether an information to be sought from an external party would be confirm our initial position or not.

Even the life we live is a gambling on its own.

Missing those old days huh? :'(

I am also missing those old days when I was young I play those kind of games with friends but now it is hard to get the spare time in our busy life that is why we opt for online gamblig now a days but in my opinion those games with friends are more entertained than current form of betting even the amount was low at those time.

there are many ways that can be done by people who are already very fond of gambling, in their daily activities if they always gather with gamblers, of course everything can be done to play by risking the money they have, even though sometimes they play by risking drinks, the most important thing is that they can gather together and have fun.

I think I have saw a few websites in the past that allows a gamer to purchase a tournament slot with an entry fees in order to take part in a small tournament held on the website daily, and the players would play against each other until the winner is determine in the final round, the winner will be able to win a large portion of the total prize money which are the combined entry fees from all other participants.

What you are telling is the starting point of gambling. First it starts with fun and when this fun becomes regular it gets addicted and then you start to go for real gambling. So it is better to have healthy game bets and dont include any money or stuff. Let it be small as in start it is small and then it goes big you wont be knowing it.

I can't believe that you have games with boys and girls. I do that only when we are playing outside our houses, either badminton or dodgeball, depending on the game. I haven't thought of betting with those kinds of games. For basketball, I know people will play with wagers, whether they are going to be the ones paying for the court or something close to that.

Respect to you and your group who is using the money to upgrade/renovate the church and spread your religion. That's admirable.

So it's quite similar with predicting the scores in football. I think the easy way to fix that just adjusts the winning prize so that it would satisfy what the players give. Probably only one slot per member and giving the chance that the money grows (if it's not won by a player)

There are many times I did that kind of bet, the most common one is playing sport, either its badminton or futsal, usually there will be a pot and winner takes all, its not much but it increase the fun and the seriousness of playing the game and back when I was in high school we like to play coin toss and the winner win the coin, I played a lot of this mini bet for fun and I seldom won, so it can be said that I am losing money from this mini bet

Only with typical sports like basketball. When the great age when computers are expensive enough and people only play games outside their homes, basketball is one of an amazing part of my childhood where people in our community keeps on playing it from morning until evening. Its already part of the community's daily routine where a basketball match has come always with a bet.

Yeah, I miss those days thay we are covered with sweat being punished and always being scolded by our parents saying that we are all focused on playing and using our money to play and it will not give us great things in the future.

They might be right but that is part of childhood. I even bet something when my classmates are throwing stones at a sign. We bet whoever hit the sign will be taking all of our snacks, someone did and we are called at our baranggay for that.

Hey yes I used to do it with my friends and sometimes with total strangers, we used to play counter strike back then and sometimes we gambled within our inner circle, and at times when we met new people we pitched them the idea and they joined in. When we were indoors we used to gamble on Fifa games on ps2 and Ps3, but those was back in the past now we stick to sports or casino bets. As for the money we made I won't call it a fortune, let's just say extra income to keep one going.

How to not miss them? Like you are saying, that was entertainment, nothing can come close to that this days. We played tekken, mortal combat, boxing, need for speed, other driving games, but mostly we played soccer.That times will never return, carefree times, it was nice to win, but it was all about fun and spending good time with friends, always with some beers and snacks. Sadly new generations will never know that, dota, counter strike, lol, other online games are good, but there is something with hanging out with friends, talking, having fun, new generations will not feel that.

I have only done this once with friends and it can be pretty interesting but it was soccer. FIFA 18, and then we decided to just go the betting style. Men, it was like a thug of war, the adrenaline rush, it was really crazy and fun at the same time.

The most important thing is to see it as fun, but the thing with the money part of it is that, that motivation to win is something that would always make you to want to try your best, but sometimes, asides the skills in playing, luck too can really be a case some times.

Yes, I did this, we bet money on the game to guess the top score in a tournament. We call the game "BOMBER" very pleasant. We play this game on PlayStation2. ;D

I did with subway surfers  ;D which is not a hard game but not easy to make high scores,but I did that in somewhat and won few bucks from my friends who bet between us to reach a new high score in a time period and honestly I am still at the high score on that game even after many years now.

Yes, there are some chances that my relatives and friends try to play games with a bet and most of the time we play cards at home and not in the casinos, and I am winning some little amounts, we are just having fun actually and not to win huge money because we all know that we have all our limitations. hahaha LOL

Once I tried to gamble with my friends when we are playing the game on PlayStation2. We use money as a bet, and if someone can win the game, then he can take all of the money. We really enjoy to play the game especially if we can win the game, we can get that money. But in other time, we only play the game without using money and the bet changes. Who can be the winner, he can get all he wants in that day without any delay.

It's like escrowing the funds in a certain tournament slot then scheduling the time of games. I think it would really be a good business idea to host something like that. In the end, after giving the major prizes, consolation prizes, venue, etc the organizer would still profit just from the entry fees itself.

I'm not very familiar with futsal but I did a few searches on the internet and it is just like soccer (pardon me for not knowing). For badminton, I have played it too, sometimes competitively with friends, but I'm not that pro. Sometimes it involves waging money to buy food after every tournament we had. For the coin toss, that's going to be a quick and easy profit if you are lucky.

For me that was the idea of this post also, it's like an extra income that is not coming from my parents pocket (when I was still a young student) that wants to do something for myself. That's the time I learned that when you are really good at something, you have to take advantage of it. It was fun but it's totally different now especially that most of our circle of friends are working.

I do play poker with my friends but it's always with plastic poker chips and never with real money. Imo playing with real money with friends is a lose-lose situation, especially if big money involved. I mean, if you win the money you lose your friends, and if you lose money ... well, you lose money, and that's a bad thing.

But there's also another kind of competition, apart from poker. For example, when we are talking about movies and one guy/girl is saying that it's this actress starring there and someone else is saying it's another one, things like that, and then we are making bets about that, and like a bottle of wine or a bottle of rum should be bought by the loser ... But then we dink it together anyway.

Am I thinking of the right game? The one on the phone? I remember playing that and competing with some of my friends. It always going to get hard as long as you play it, the longer the game the faster it is right? I think it is a great mobile game, still is, but I haven't thought of it to be waging something there. I just brag about it whenever I was in the high score board.

Everyone that has some knowledge of playing card games has the chance to gamble with money, it's just a proven fact in my opinion. My friends and I want to start a poker night and just for fun with money. I think not everyone is willing to wager money in anything, they are not risk takers.

Hmm, I haven't played on a multitap before, was it, four players? I'm thinking of Bomberman, as in the one you leave bombs and just making yourself strong in the game by collecting powerups and something. That's also a great game, it's not easy to play with humans, but at that time, the bots are really easy. What kind of things the winner wants that you have experienced?

What I have done when playing poker with friends is that we exchange it for real value, like a $1 chip would be considered as a real dollar, just like in the casinos and we all agree that it's real money so the stake is really high, no one of us wants to lose. Fortunately, we didn't lose the friendship that we had and it's just competitive gameplay one game after the other.

Is it like the drinking game? I think that's one game that I'm not really good at but really fun to do. You wouldn't know how much you are going to drink unless it already happened. lol

Usually it's informal kind of gambling type that usually being held by community,college,etc
IMO, these kind for gambling type have less demand so it's unpopular gambling type that want to be include on bitcoin gambling site.

But if we talk about E-sport, they have a chance for example clash royale or clash of clan war competition that reward in BTC

It's either your friendship is of the highest level or you and your friends are very wealthy people. If a friend lost to me $200 I'm pretty sure we would stop being friends after that. There's even a saying where I live, if you want to ruin a friendship allow money be involved in the relationship. At first, after reading your reply I even started thinking on giving $0.01 value to the chips with "1" written on them, but then I remembered the saying.



No, it's not a drinking game, if you are asking about what I wrote. A bottle of wine/whiskey/rum serves as a prize for those who won the competition. I meant that the winner doesn't take it home, but rather shares it with those who lost, and everyone is happy. :) Actually I wouldn't recommend playing drinking games to anyone because excessive amounts of alcohol can be very bad for your health.

I always play dice and poker games for gambling. I think these two are simple games for gambling. Mostly I play dice game because it needs no experience and depends on luck only. Game time is also short and you can play many games in very short time. Poker takes some time and also needs experience because of bluffing. Good bluffer can win the game easily.

Hmm, what informal kind are you talking about? Not being regulated but still enjoyable? Or just some spontaneous game you and your friends from college manage to do. I think those kinds of gambling games is really for entertainment, nothing else. Maybe it's only known for a circle of friends.

I have played those games and I'm only up to arena 6 or 7, I think. It would be awesome since it has 2v2 mode now. More possible profit.

It's probably our friendship are at the highest level, winning $200 from someone is a great thing (for the winner) but my friends wouldn't approve that kind of amount. It's like being in business right? It's hard to be involved with someone you already have a relationship with and money is almost what everyone wants, which is not a good thing.

I think when it's wine, they say it has blood-related benefits, where it can strengthen blood flow or something. Something of too much would really be bad. lol.

We've done it when I was in College, it was a 5v5 game but the bet isn't that high since we are friends. Just enough to pay for computer rent. This is more like a friendly match and not a gambling match coz it's more in entertainment and doesn't think too much about the bet. We've done it not just in one game, but in different games as well.

Those days are good to cherish and unlike today's children, they will never understand what real happiness is. Well this is getting off topic now. Any simple games before can be applied with gambling, whether the bet is money, clothes, or anything which is childish thing and all we do is to enjoy the company of both parties. But now we've grown up and getting older lol all we want is money.

What game were you guys playing in College? Probably it was Warcraft? You had a lot of players then and I remember doing that as well with matching snacks to treat us after the game. Having a friendly match is not bad also, it's a way to practice your gameplay and not be too competitive, but I think you need the pressure in the game to have a better performance.

I don't think that they don't understand real happiness, it's just the same happiness, it's an emotional state, it's just that it's different now compared to before. I haven't tried betting clothes, especially the things we are currently playing but that would be fun. I only experienced strip poker lately, not when I was a kid. We all need money but we shouldn't be always about money, there's a difference.

This is more common nowadays now that there are pvp games available in smartphones. I've been part of groups that held competition to who will be the games winner. Not sure if this is considered gambling tho even if it involves money. It's actually nice to do it since it's more like a skill game than a probably fair game compared when you are gambling in casinos.

I agree and mobile games are just like the same things with the competitiveness of a player. I have played Mobile Legends and I have a team that are very supportive of each other and we grow together. I know there are competitions held in that specific game and there's a grand prize. That's what we aim to be and we all know that having money as the wager would really improve your gameplay.

Some people don't consider mobile games as games, but it's almost the same concept, letting people play together, PVP and it's just a different console. I have started taking advantage of my phone in order to get back my investment on it. I just wanted to earn from it. I think the best games are the skill-based games.

Many people do gamble casually. When I used to play Dota, there were sites that allowed you to bet your ingame items on pro league matches. It looked like some childish way to gamble, but these items could be quickly sold for fiat money on steam and some were quite valuable, so people were betting the equivalent of 10-100 € every time. I'm sure that it's still popular.

If you really think about it, everything in life you do is a gamble.  You decide to take a vacation, there is a chance the plane could crash and you end up dying.  You decide to work at a new company, maybe you will get assaulted by a coworker.  Every action has a consequence which means every decision we make can be considered gambling.

I think there are still sites like those, Dota2Lounge, and recently I have searched for it and it still works. What's awesome about it is you just have to give permissions and login your Steam account. For me, it's not a childish gamble knowing that it involves money. It just seems games are just for kids but I beg to differ. It is still popular in my peers.

I think like that sometimes, especially when an important decision was done. It has always come to my mind that other possibilities could have happened, but it's already there and you can't change anything about it. But the important thing to do is that you won't regret anything that you have done already, because why do that decision if you don't like it or something? Unless you are left without a choice anymore, you only have that one regretting the decision, but I don't believe that. There is always a way, just like gambling, you decide to win, and hope that you do. Don't regret if you lost, because it was your choice to gamble more.

I also believe that life is always a gamble, In doing decision you should make it and sometimes you don't know if you have done the right thing or not, You can surely apply to gamble in everything that you decide, You should always believe that there is no turning back there is no reverse in life if you do anything stupid there is no rewind to bring you back in time just like in gambling if you lose your money there is no chance in regaining it all back again,

Well in apply gambling with games definitely we can sure gamble with friends and there should be stakes prepared for it because if there are not that is not gambling but only a game that doesn't have any consequence or risk involve.

Not that big winning because like you our circle of friends are only participating in our online games betting and this is cal RAN.online in which we created our three sets of Guild or Gang and we will fight for the position of every chosen Location in Clan wars.from this we bet something around 10$ each that has 3 setd of team and composed by 40-50 members each team and the winning team will take all the bets and divided the winnings to the participants this is a simple game but very enjoyable and has good profit because this happens weekly only

That's the truth, and what matters more is that you learn from your mistakes. It’s good that we have the same outlook that you shouldn’t regret the things you did. I think in life, it’s important to experience mistakes before anything else because the next time you encounter, you would know what to do.

I like to think that you could help friends with their habits but there are just some people who won't help you. The truth hurts but it's better to know things to improve yourself.

Mistakes are the best teachers in life you can surely learn by experiencing all of those, I really think this is just a stepping stone for many people that are frustrated in life the wrongdoings you have done in the past can end up in a positive outcome you can also turn into a stepping stone,

Well, you can help a friend who is in need if he is responsible enough to accept his mistakes, And sometimes friends would surely not help you with any problems you have, But your family is the one support you can lean on in times of need, That is for certain the only one who can sure help you in times of need.

Gambling with a normal games when Im kid I play a normal games buts sometimes it turns to a gambling . hahaha we play cards and dice but later on it turns to a gambling .

That was sort of child team game in our community, I forgot the name of the game but that happened few times. But gambling on the older age would only lead you to think about profit, you may enjoy and get the happiness but those are only secondary reason why you gamble. Evolution of gambling has happened as well, old days I wasn't aware of dice bet but now its being applied to casino's.

It's called a point spread.

It is definitely steps for a person, going to improve and to become more experienced with life. It's just like starting a business, you can never have the perfect formula from the start but as you go along the journey, you will be able to increase your knowledge and apply the things that you've learned in business, or what we call life.

It's especially important to be close to family knowing that you are going to be supported in your decisions, except if you're the type of family that wants just one thing or something. If the friend we are talking about is alone, it's much more needed to support that person.

You were gambling when you were just a kid? With what? What I remember was that we are betting a toy and if the person wins, he would be able to get it and even making it about a bet with some gross action. It's funny.

---

Ohh. That's okay but we haven't really done that type of game. It's not just gambling when you are older than you think of profit but it's when you start to be business minded that you always want to profit with anything. What I don't like about being business minded is that all you think about is money, it's above all else. It's not good. I think the popularity of dice increased because of it's easy to learn the game.

I also like to gamble the way you like, which is playing ps4. but the game that I played was FIFA19. the calculation is that every single goal there is a bet for example $ 1, and each match won also has its own bet with $ 10. so it can be counted after the match is finished between the winner and the goal created. if the result is a draw, the match will be repeated. the team that is chosen freely as you wish, may use the same team if you really like the same team.

Wow, that's just a new game and are you playing it with your friends? I would like to try to gamble with my PS4 because it doesn't make any money for me. It's just a real luxury to buy and I want my investment there to somewhat grow. But it's there already so I should just make the best out of it.

I haven't tried playing FIFA in any gaming platforms, just watching it in some YouTubers gameplay. Having a bet with just the outcome would also be daring. It's like betting with the players' skills. And now that I realized, if you have the option to let computers play with each other, and just bet on the outcome, or you could add your $1 bet per goal, then it would totally be fair. With the ratings also for teams to be somewhat close, and not it to be lopsided. It can be done infinitely, so you could just gamble and gamble. Lol.

It is funny that we prohibit kids these days to gamble while in our childhood days, we are the ones that gamble all the time despite of us in the younger age. I think that is just a reflection that we should not tolerate them to gamble.

We are the ones who has the experience and knowledge about gambling and so we should know how to stop them and make them understand the risks and future effects of gambling to themselves. My favorite gambling game in my childhood is betting on spiders we caught in the mountains. We catch spiders, put it in a stick and let them fight to death. I've won a lot of money that time but I am just a child that time, that money I'm winning that time is so small compared to what I am getting with my pay right now.

I always played cricket but never for gambling. There was no bet between the teams. That was our childhood and adulthood. Now I am 44 years old. Now there are many ways of gambling. You can choose one of them like online gambling, sports betting or in casinos. I think that gambling in childhood or in student life is not good because you can get addicted.

I have never thought of it that way, but it is true. I think parents that see their kids doing gambling or anything related to it has thought to themselves that they might get addicted, but the truth is, they are still children, and they might forget it unless it brings an essential memory to thought.

Wow, that's an awesome game. I remember that, and now I have seen videos about it, and giant spiders don't mean it's a strong spider. Some spiders are smaller but is more deadly. It's just a hobby, and its a game, not a money making thing. As long as it's fun.

In the past I did such games too like guessing the serial number of a car that passing by. But over time, it is very hard to meet with my fellow gamblers and I don't play games like that anymore. Frankly, we did such games when we are bored only.

Wow, this is relly reminiscing the past when we are just a young boy being curious to what is haopenijg to our worlds. We do bet our money unto spiders but we don't use a stick, we a plastic box where we can watch the fight outside since it is a see-through. I used to cry whenever I lose my money and my spider there being killed. We also bet on this thing called "teks", like pogs but it is rectangle in shape.

This is quite common, most of the time that starts with something like, I bet you cannot do X, and then the other persons ask how much you are willing to wager? I remember doing that way back in the past, the first time I did that was when a friend and I were playing Super Mario Bros 3 and we were competing in each level and see who could finish the level the fastest, my friend was exceptionally good at that game so most of the time I lost but as we were kids the bets were incredibly small.

As you may guess what was a fun game was made even more entertaining since finishing the level was nothing to be proud, you needed to be the fastest or else you will lose the bet.

Ha! I just remembered what I do when I'm driving. The vehicle plate number of the car is in front of you and then I try to read the letters there. For example, the letters of the car's plate number in front of me have WDU, and I would try to use it as a word, a phrase or some silly way to pronounce it. It would be said like wa-doo. Or something close to that. Make it up like a game where you have friends and form a sentence. "WDU get me some coffee?" It's pretty weird, right? Lol

---

I think you had the wrong placement of your finger when typing "happening". I prefer to stay ergonomic.  ;)

Anyways, I haven't tried any of those but just watch. It would be easier if it was in a plastic lunch box, freezer safe or something like that. Children are somewhat emotional, so probably that's why you cry. I remember having things like that and just flipping it, like a coin toss.

---

I thought it was hard to understand what X means but you just made me remember all the times I had to find X in a math question. Lol.

I think if you challenge people, they take risks. I'm kind of like that too and making a wager to it makes it more challenging and makes me more determined to do it. I had those days too when I was playing with my neighbor, and it was in Megaman X4. And the levels of it was challenging. And I still remember the cheat in it where you would get the ultimate armor.

Yes of course, in our area we do simple betting like playing basketball or even playing online games which we bet of money. Sometimes playing simple games and do the betting makes you think of how much it cost to play at the casino where in a lot is at stake.

It is really fun and it is more exciting when there are more big spiders and more children want to fight the spiders they've caught on the mountains. Sometimes these spiders can be seen on the side of provincial roads.

I know that it is just a game, a way of having fun while we are in our childhood but when we are children, cock fighting is so popular in our place that the way of betting of them in cock fighting was influenced by how we bet on our spiders. Even the adults bet on some of the spider's fight but as I said, the bet at that time is not that much, it is just really for fun.

I think is pretty common, especially now, to bet with money. Or sometimes they pay it with paying for in the court. That's what my friends do most of the time if they play against people who come from other regions of the place. It is very different if it's a casino that you are playing in, comparing bets to it, it could be close but the rate of playing is different of course. You could employ strategies with both but in basketball, you need real skills, physical stuff.

---

There are a lot of big spiders lurking in the woods, knowing that it would be in trees or any other place you could find cobb webs. Sometimes I remember riding our bikes and just seeing possible sightings of them. It's fun when you have that friend who is scared and you cannot control them freaking out. It's so funny.

Cockfighting is still famous and there are a lot of wagers coming in and out. Some have stadiums just for that. I have a relative who is joining there and earning a lot of money but it's just that source of money. It's not that well if you just have that hobby. It's not a long term source of funds, except if you own the stadium.

Well I am sorry about that, it made me remember those great things in my childhood. You know, my hands kept typing the things that happened that time. I also remember that we also used to play Basketball at that time, I am not a great player but I do want to be part of the game since I also bet my money on that team, though as I said, I am not a great player so I just usually hope my team wins.

Yeah, back in the days me and my mate who at that time staying in one flat and during weekends we have this sort of party. We're all playing PS and each has its own character, lol, we will invent and call our on moves, we will be having a winner-take-all bets. Most of the time the winner will have to treat us though, probably some beers or late dinner, damn, those were the days.

Yes that is right but I think that online young generation can know about it and can play gambling on it, while the rest of the people like to continue their traditional way of playing gambling. I think that it is even not possible in such area where internet is not present or even internet service is not too much good there.

You don't have to say sorry, we all had those times where you fail to type the right word, lol. Is that why you are sorry for?

Wow. It's okay as long as you play continuously, you would be better in playing when you are consistent. You could become a great player if you always play. Hmm. It somehow defeats the purpose of betting with the team if you also play in it (if you think of it as sportsbooks) but if you play because of other people, then it's fine. I think everyone wants for their team to win.

---

Oh, you live together huh, I think it's fun to be like that because if you stay in a rented place you could do anything you want. What game did you play then? I can't seem to think what type of game you could do that except if it's WWE or something. But the stats of your character would be really low. I remember instant noodles while playing, or it's the wager of the teams. Lol.

When you gamble there is no friend and stranger. Gambling is gambling no matter with whom you are playing. But it is important that the games should be in friendly atmosphere. No reasoning, no misbehave and no shouting especially with your friends. These things are not good for your friendship. Gambling is not necessary but you should not quit friendship.

I agree.It may be a good one but for those people who live in areas who have poor internet connection would not find it interesting.We used to play cards at home with my relatives and friends and yes it involves money but not as big like in casinos.So in times i want to have fun and no big amount of money on hand,i just stay at home and play with them.

I think betting with friends in some ordinary games or events is a classic way of making fun. I used to do it with friends also in cases like world boxing championship, wrestling in tv or betting on basketball teams and horse race betting. It is fun but I dont see people doing it anymore. Any game that involves money is called gambling.

I know will be betting blockchain betting exchange Mevu where will be possible for users to bet on anything they want to bet create his own betting events

I think as long as you are playing the right game for you and you would win, that's what would matter. All people have something inside themselves that prefer themselves and selfishly pick everything that would benefit oneself. I think that's just human nature is and still do. I think you wouldn't have a friendly atmosphere (if you are playing with friends) because there is money involved but if there is an understanding, probably it could work out.

---

That's what gambling is made for, entertainment. It's fun when there's a live event that you are watching and you would either have the face of a winner or the face of a loser. You would see live regret that way. Lol.

---

I don't have any idea what Mevu is so, oh well. Is that a gambling site or a currency exchange? Post a link, and I would check it out.

I have done this many times already in many situations. In a basketball game, in a computer game like Dota 2 or Mobile Legends etc. I used to gamble with my friends in normal games. Gambling is not only found in casino. It can be found anywhere and anybody can gamble as long as there is a competitions.

Can we call them as betting or it also just fall unders the gambling? Because I believe that gambling can be based on luck most of the time but playing with normal games not depends on the luck it depends on the experience and skills.

Probably it's common that I initially thought or people are just attracted to the thought of gambling. What type of normal games are you talking about? Is it just Dota 2 and Mobile Legends? I haven't played with most of what you said and definitely no competition yet. I think as long there are people who want to risk their money, the gamble could happen. That's just how common it is in my opinion.

Obviously everyone did that atleast once in their life time,not for money sometimes just like for dare things too.I do bet on the online multiplier games too but which is not really interesting like the betting on casinos because where our life time can change in a moment if we are extremely lucky.

Casinos or gambling site becomes medium where you can bet or play against other or computer. This is a online method. But we do have a offline method as well where people between each other bets on something and have the money placed on their bets.

Yes, it is but unfortunately, many people become addicted because they think that they can get more fun by playing another game. They use more money to get another experience in the other game because they think that they can win the other games but the truth is they only lose more money.

Maybe we all have the experience in the normal game like for example, and we play dota or the other games. And we are bet for $100 for the winner, and if someone wins the game, he can get all the money. I have this experience too, and I guess that we have the same experience in another game.

Most of the people that say they will be extremely lucky turned out not winning anything. I guess it's just once in a life time happening or something. Online multiplier games like dice you mean? I'm not sure if that is what you mean though.

---

You are talking about the map in Warcraft III? Frozen throne? That's my first game in DotA long before DotA 2 was released. Tht's a big wager especially if it was a long time ago because I was still a student that time and I don't even have that kind of amount lol. Gamers who go up to the point where they are really competitive and they start betting money, I think that's the specific term you are talking about.

Normal games for gambling I think are poker and dice games and to somehow sports betting. These are easy games for gambling especially sports betting and dice games which depend totally on luck. No special experience and skills required for these games. Poker is little bit tough compare to other two. I normally bet on sports games. It is easy for making money.

We recently invented this rock, paper and scissor contest in office and bets are hillariously unreal like treating lunch, half of tbe bread, a service, couple of candies, rubber bands and ofcourse money. This is somehow our way to release stress. The person who will reach to five wins and the game starts with a tag.

Great, this is usually happening when people are bored and if they are stressed in their work. Gambling with normal game is common with cards and online game. I remember before, I used to raised money through dota and its really feel good if you win the game and the other day you will play a different game.

It's difficult to find friend want to gambling because most of my friend, avoid gambling !
When I try to tell them about crypto, they are also avoid as well because crypto trading is risky activity.

What would I do ?
I try to find another day and try to show my trading portfolio about crypto and they start thinking about it...

Good for relieving stress and expressing your enjoyment, this type of gambling works as a social interactions with people who you love to be with, same thing with cards game playing with your friends while you are drinking some beers, it will bring strong bonds though there's no serious attachment with the amount of winnings but the enjoyment is really important with those normal games that you will play.

Yeah more like a healthy form of gambling with the  goal to be simply for enjoyment, passing time and nothing more. Though try putting a hardcore gambler among the bettors and it could easily escalate to a game for real money.

And it will, without a shadow of a doubt they will end up high on cocaine, alcohol and tobacco... not to mention frequent injections with marijuana. But seriously, I've been there and such scenario is very likely to happen. Not even a hardcore gambler is necessary. Those peeps will progress because that's how it all works. Lot's of fun for sure but to a certain point, when stakes became dangerously high or important.
Lets look at it from a different perspective, they gamble with "launch money", it means that somebody is hungry everyday... I cant imagine a profession where hungry employee is a good and effective one... they already harming each other and the company they work for. B4 "to much serious, so little fun", sorry but that's just life.
If I would be their manager, I would ban such activities during work time.

We are using gambling in our daily life like we are playing something we can get and get the profit from that game show playing games with gambling will always be followed by ourself since from a long period of time so it is also the good way for entertainment purpose.

Such games can only be done when you have free time so you don't get bored because there is no compulsory activity, yes that will really strengthen the social straps between them. After all, gambling with normal games with friends will allow us to laugh freely and feel pure happiness created, so in this game anything can be used as betting material.

You can still play gambling even without your friends especially if they are not interested in gambling and crypto. Do not force them to get into crypto, it is not your loss anyway. You can still play gambling with normal games with other people if you really want to.

That rock, paper and scissor game is not actually a form of gambling. The people playing that game as "social interaction" has nothing to lose huge to lose. Even if there is a dare involved, as long as huge sum of money is not being placed as a bet, its not the same as real gambling. You won't be getting the same adrenaline rush you would have gotten if money was involved. Those are just "fun" games with some rewards.

Depicting of normal games will be also in the field of cabinet so it is good idea to spread the thing that people will also make money through the way of gamble in some other games also I definitely it made something new to the generation of people who are interested in the gambling the most.

aside from it , he can also find a gambling buddy online because all has a chat and add friend feature  .  @detector , i feel you bro and you arent alone because that bad experience also happened to me before when i invited my friend although its not in gambling but it is in crypto  . i encourage them to try faucets and other profitabel activities but im surprised that none of them are intrested as they find it hard  .

I guess it is a good for the OP since most of his friends are avoiding gambling. Most of the things we have done in our lives our and been addicted to are things that we've done by our friends since it is fun and it is really addicting when they are around doing the same thing. But if they will not be gambling and they are avoiding it, I know there will come a time that you will be the same as your friend.

It is just a normal reaction if your friend avoided you to get involved in any activity that they don't know yet. I think it is better if you have to explain to them what is cryptocurrency and how this thing works so that they could understand. This will remove their doubts that they have when they could fully understand the system. Though the risk of trading is unavoidable, still you have to explain it to them.

That once happened to me, every person who likes gambling and becomes a gambling addict then he will make whatever he does become a place of gambling. Like when playing chess, he will bet as much as he can even though it doesn't really master chess, so I get a lot of money for beating him. In addition, when we play PES, he will offer first to gamble and gambling also looks unique, every goal we make will make money. This is the characteristic of a gambler, whatever he does will lead to betting.

We should not really make gambling as a source of income.

Gambling may be the easiest way to earn money but we all know that we are all depending on our luck and that will not always work on us. It might be the break for other people but I don't think it is all for us. We should not be relying on these things as we all know, the only dependable thing these days is ourselves, we need to risk but mostly we need to depend on ourselves.

You can if you have the skills to be consistent in gambling, some people are making a living in gambling but they are only few in the planet.
I believe those who only have the gift to do this are getting the benefit of casino existence in this world, because whether we admit or not, most of us are just losers.

My thought is that what you referring to as game and betting between you and your friends has no different from what happened online.  It is just that you are doing that offline.

Its difficult to play gambling for fun only because our real money is involved in it. There can be a situation where one enter in gambling to enjoy only and if he loses, he will no more be in enjoyment phase.

Only those people who are very very rich and losing any amount of money does not matter much, those can enjoy gambling regardless of winning or losing. For a Common man, it is very much important to WIN in gambling to be remain happy. :)

Gambling with normal games is pretty much like gambling online as these two methods will at the end yield profits if an individual win the game. Normal game is not suitable for hot temper individuals who might see others taken the wins why him/her lose. I have been a victim of this many times before i quit play games with my friends rather i play online.

I think the difference between the two types is the house edge which is not involved when you play with a friend on any platform game that's offline. Most at times play with friend never requires a cut from any body because the winner takes it all unlike the online gambling.

Online games makes new generation get wild and it looks more addictive for the young minds especially for kids. Hope they will not go into gambling with their games just like what we do.
Online gambling is what mostly the people have fun for and it is very comfortable rather than to be in casino. It is quite good for new gamblers as they could learn a lot, this is a game and there should have a winner. Though this is just a normal games but don't take it seriously otherwise you might fall into addiction.

We tried this before but not on video games rather its from an actual sport .

its basketball . i and my friends play a normal game just to past the time and to have a bonding but we sometimes add some twist like betting some cash . its only a small amount so that the winning team can buy a snacks like junkfoods and softdrinks  after a tiring match   .

This kind of gambling is not for a purpose of earning a money or for profiting but its for the sake of having fun  .

Such games are very common here and to this day some of my friends still do it. Badminton is the game that often being used as the medium. Two pairs of groups will compete and whoever loses must set up drinks and foods. Cash is also often used as a betting tool. Stakes are usually intended to make the sport's game more stressful and they didn't do it too often.

Aside from the ending score they can betting whos team gonna win and also they can bet whos star player of both team can make highest score. For example lebron james vs kobe bryant. lebron got score 49 and kobe got score 41 Who bet to lebron will won.

Yes we did in our region online games are popularized because of betting..some computer shop owners like me are organizing competitions for their active and good players in every chosen games like Dota and League of Legends and now theres a new one called Rules of Survival in which every participants must provide same amount as each others and if all bets are collected then the teams will be created and the fight will start,the best team will bring the Prize

Another one is Mobile Legends in which we as friends in our free time or even my office mate plays this with Pot for the best players

This is how we gamble in our own little ways

Yes gambling is filled with all type of field in today situation and increasing day by day the users and gambling development also and it can be continue to occupy the normal games also for a people to get involved in betting with normal games so it can be filled with both good and bad things.

That's a good practice for competitions especially when there is an outstanding player. I have seen much local competition in my place, but there are known players that stand out. Well, I love to play with them just because I could learn so much. Anyways, I don't like Rules of Survival because it copied PubG.

I like to play games that involve money; it makes the game more intense that it makes me in the zone. Do you know that feeling?

It was very fun. I did it also with my friends. we played PES late at night. sometimes we compete and gamble. make competition like a Cup with a few friends and if you win, you get a lot of money that has been collected before.

What you mean that you did it also with your friends? I haven’t played PES (soccer game right? If I got it correctly). It’s pretty awesome what a console could do with people. I remember people who didn’t get along well when they’re grouped to each other but when they knew they have something in common (playing video games) they instantly connected and became friends. I remembered this because both of them invited me to play with them and gamble. It’s fun when there’s healthy competition around.

This is fun choosing a game with your friends that you are good with but be also aware that some quarrel might happen that can lead to break the friendship of each other.

I've been into that part, although I have cut some friendship and relationships through this kind of gambling I also gained a lot of friends through this.

Me too, I invited some friends to try crypto but they aren't interested in it. Maybe they find it difficult to understand, but I don't want them to force to enter the crypto world, it will always depend on them if they want to finally learn them I am open to teach them what I've known.

In the old times, me and my friends were gathering in a house and we were making a Pro Evolution Soccer tournament. We had an entry fee of $5 for each player and then we distributed it to the first 3 winners. It was very nice and apart from gambling we have so much fun all together. When you are young and you don't have the chance of entering a casino, you try to find other ways to gamble!

Let the time will answer and if they are interested, they will come to you and ask you to teach them. Meanwhile, we could still play games but don't use too much money inside the game because it will make you greedy to chase the win money. I have those experience with some of my friends and I don't think that will easy to them to understand how the crypto works because they are the people who have only knew social media to communicate and don't use internet for many things.

That's bad, if the intentions is just to have some fun money shouldn't be matter, but things happen I guess, and we can't avoid that even we wanted
to have some fun alone there's still people who's very competitive and will have some issue to be raise out, maybe there's a good reason behind and just like what you have said you also gained newer friends after.

Instances like these do really happens and i also experience such stuff too where it comes to a point where there are friends will really be affected
when you do both play.

Once he do feels uneasy then unexpected things do happen but as been said if there are relations being cut there would be always a new one.

I don't like to gamble directly against friends and family unless there is no money involved.  Money can ruin relationships so its better to bet on chores or tasks to be done instead.

Why not? Just for the sake of enjoyment and having fun? Usually with friends or families, those who won will have to buy food or drinks coming from his winnings. Makes this whole playing with your close friends and families bonding moments so to speak.

There was a chance wayback here in office that our most hated manager will be replaced so we have a three contender that the management has to choose from

So what we did while waiting for the result since we really wanted that stupid manager will be out of position.

We made a betting so we gamble and this is not small amount because there was a 25 of us that made the bet with “Half of our Month compensation “with a winner takes all rule and luckily i Won .sl thats how normal the game we had but gives me big Pot

I like the idea of betting with chores around the house. I bet that I can defeat my sister in a PS4 Game (Tekken) so that she will do the dishes for me. Lol.

---

That's a lot of people that are under him. Probably he's the most hated because he is the one in control or maybe just have a bad character. I can't imagine why you would bet with that, but that's interesting and unique. I hope that guy finds a new job though.

You just can't expect things to do lightly when there's money involve though its a game between friends. It's bad and good experience for me but you'll just know those people that are true to you.

I guess I have my own fault too for being attached to them and they took it seriously because there's money involved.

Exactly there are a lot of options for the gambling sports betting. I can give you example of cricket in which there is not only betting on end results but also on the scores in individual overs. For example you can bet how much the team score in first over and if it scores above or below that limit, you will win depending upon on which score you placed the bet.

It's fun you know. Sometimes I do this with some of my friends, and although I cannot always win from me, we can have fun together while we can do many things. I think when we gamble with our friends, it's not about the money but it's about how we spend the time with them, and I think many people sometimes do this. But it's okay if you don't want to gamble using money instead with your friends and yes, I agree with you that money can ruin relationships.

Actually I forget I did bet money a few times with friends.  Once was when we had a Fifa tournament single elimination 1v1 but the prize was still really low.  It doesn't feel as bad losing money when you know its going to one of your friends as well.

That's right mate is more fun and much more ideas and options in sports betting really exciting creating by friends in the street community especially in the basketball games anywhere you can seen betting in the basketbal.

I can feel you dude since the game becomes more enjoyable when some amount is at stake and this turns more happy if were dealing with someone close to us,the competition is more like a friendly but strick fight
OUr skills and ability gives the adrenaline a chance to boost our capacity to win though for sure the opponent feels the same way

Gambling in online games is something like "easy money". You can easily understand who is the best player due to stats and times of game played. And most of the time the better players win because of the skill that they have developed by playing the game. The less skilled is not so able to carry a game and win.
It is a good way of gambling though and it is growing rapidly.

Yeah,  it is really fun if your betting it just for pleasure or a friendship game and making it a way from bringing out our stress life at work.
But some of us take it seriously which is they used to gambled a lot of time and money on it. And they are making money on these.

Those people who take it seriously are the ones that think gambling is a source of income. Fun games is just meant for entertaining and the reason why there is a bet is to make things getting more interesting aside from betting.
It may be mind games, outdoor sports or boardgames it doesn't matter as long as you both enjoys it.

It is so much fun and also that the money is not only going towards a friend but also that you are not really losing that much since it's just a friendly bet.

Another fun thing about friendly bets is that it can be with other things different than money. I participated in some and won most, what i find particularly fun is that my father once won 1kg of cheese and 1 or 2 boxes of beer in one.

It is definitely enjoyable with a lot of possible people who could see the game. If it's streamed, very nice, but in the computer shops that there are some girls that would be watching you (assuming they know the game) and they would be cheering for you, that pumps me up a lot. It's like my mental calculations are fast with predictions of the opponents moves, oh it's an awesome feeling.

Hey, I must appreciate you for enlightening us, the herd of gamblers who were struggling in the name of gambling like keep sticking with few gambling types and not willing to come out of it. Gambling within our friends at any time possible, must be a great way to entertain ourselves and I guess betting within us for some small to big money also will not hurt anyone as the winning possibilities are equally distributed.

An gambling environment must be ensuring the fair possibilities to win for all the gamblers. More particularly, only when we gamble in persons, we do get chances of winning at 50% (considering a two player game) whereas all gambling houses are influencing in the chances to win by reducing the probability into less than 50% . That must not be fair. We just need a gambling house only for providing the platform for us but they are becoming a playing partner too.

Exactly mate playing with individuals out of house gives us the benefits of winning fairly and equally since we mostly played with small amount depends on the occasion

I really love seeing my money(whenever i loss)to someone closer to mine at least i can see where he wil spends that amount and mostly the winnings goes to buying foods or something to share with for the losers isn’t it this is what we can defy a “happy gambling”?things that most of us wanted to feel in times of gambling(ofcourse this is not applicable for addicted lol)

Hmm, I think it would be harder for you to come out of gambling if you are used to it already. If not, maybe you could still control with yourself. With money and games, that's one of the most entertaining stuff that you could do, in my opinion. If the gambling between you and your friends are fair, it will likely be more exciting.

---

I know that feeling. It's like a victory celebration with those people who you have beaten and enjoyed the competitiveness and also the sportsmanship together. It is definitely one of the definition of Happy Gambling. I think addicts are happy when gambling because that's what they always want to do.

I really want to try this one but after assessing myself so many times, my inner self still says NO lol. I'm not a heavy drinker and if you offer me a pure gin I'll probably vomit in no time and sleep afterwards ;D.
That was cool! Be grateful for having friends who are console gamers because me? I have nothing but bunch of mobile gamer friends. It sucks, they can't relate in my stories sometimes.
Hmm, we do the usualas well, betting on UFC fights, basketball games and the alike. But there was a time when my friends and I got a small competition in our school which is related to our midterm exam. The one who got the lowest score will treat us in a restaurant. I'm not the lowest that time so for me it was a fun experience after all :).

I like to play competitiv with my team and we have earned from it, but small money. Last year, it all stopped, but it did not care that we did not take the money but our friends got bored. It was fun and fun for me, we got money on it.

I have tried it, and it gave me a lot of headaches, and it's the hangover that sucks in the morning. Very hard to make it stop, but the trick to that is you have to stay hydrated. That's what I learned in the long run.

I must say this because it's important. Console Gamers / PC Gamers and Mobile "Gamers" are very different stories, for me. I'm not sure with others, but there's a big difference for me. With the games you are trying to play and what to do. You got to put in those hours to be a gamer, meanwhile, in mobile, you would download the game, and you could consider yourself a gamer. (I do not hate on mobile games, I just happened to know someone who calls himself a hardcore gamer but plays in mobile)

I think this is another way to gamble and make the reward seem plausible, that's awesome. There's nothing wrong with betting with food. Yum.

---

What competitive game did you try to play? Did you join a tournament? I believe it's better to give the whole story so I could understand and probably collect all the posts that interest me and put it in one game thread.

I know the feeling and it's worse if with matching dry lips, dizziness, nausea and body weakness all in one. That's why we only stick to brandy or beer every time we're having a hangout because we knew to ourselves that we might become "dead plants" tomorrow morning ;D.
I know it sounds weird but quite fun and beneficial somehow not only because of the free food but the fact that you get more motivated to pursue higher score thus having higher grades. You can try it too.

And vice versa also for those people who beaten us but we have enjoyed playing with,but maybe we have this feeling as we are not a gambling addict what you think?because for me their mind sets are different from us,most of the time they gamble for money and not for fun though there might be a percentage of fun but lower than what we have while we are playing with closest to us

Yes its more fun to play with your friends since you already know each other and you know also that money can’t buy that hapiness just make sure you still control yourself or else your friendship will be ruin. I also tried this with my friend but some of my friends are not that friendly and they feel bad when they are losing.

Ooof. I remember that feeling, and it happened to me recently. Do you know John? Johnnie Walker? Lol. I think beer is also okay. I like the caramel beer too. It’s funny how you define “dead plants”, I’m thinking about it when you can no longer walk and even speak type.

Well, if you are not that selfish, then you could share more. That’s what I do sometimes, and I think that’s why I still have my friends wanting to bet with me. I don’t get what the grades have to do with having a higher score. I’m confused.

---

They have different mindset from us. IIRC they have a different part in their brain activated, I’m not sure if it is the hippocampus but the main reason that they want to continue gambling because they want that part of their brain to be activated. I think everyones goal is to win, some of the addicts just can’t handle losses and wants to continue gambling thinking they can have more.

Actually gambling and the normal games it's more fun then going to the real casino because we are not going to gamble here for the money but the money involved on the games going to make it more excited. Normally I just bet while playing multiplier games on PC because where I am good at it.

Yeah there's definitely different mindsets about gambling just like with everything.

The healthier approach from my point of view is definitely seeing it like a video game room where you pay to play and have fun and you don't expect to get your money back, with the different that here you have a small chance of getting something to play more or retire if you get tired for the day.

The enjoyment is real there and authentic because it's a moment that will always be in your mind together with whom you ever playing with. You can also customize your bets from money to something that you can consume such as foods and drinks.

I'm sure that most of the people here experienced this kind of fun without noticing that you had ever learned to gamble at a very young age.  :D

Of course you cannot compare the excitement which you feel in a real casino and which you feel online. Both experiences are different. If you only want to focus on gambling with no disturbance and fun, then online gambling is the best. On the other hand, if you want fun and enjoy company/ people then physical casino is best suited for you. :)

Going to the real casino it's more to the grown up and that's where we go when we're stress and don't have something to do. Experience wise, those lessons that we've learned from those old times can be applied in the future too in the real gambling scene.

There are some reasons why others are coming to the physical casino and it's either that's their comfort zone. And they have been used to the things that circulates inside it.

I find it difficult to be amused by normal games and try to gamble with them. There are no bonus features in these games for sure. That is why casinos exist so people can go and play there different kind of games.

Gambling with normal games like drinking or whaever else might be cannot give you the adrenaline of a real casino game can give when you hit the jackpot.

Quite the opposite of my perception, for I am more amused by those petty normal games rather than playing on some games at the casinos. It may not have so much bonuses, but the fun is still there, so it's still good enough for me. And as for casinos' existence, I can't deny that they have some special features and that's the reason why they're being famous with it. Classic games are still my bet.


Only IF you hit the jackpot. But if it's the opposite, it gives you a lot of stress.

Thats a perfect mindset mate,just like video games when we are contented defeating the opponents or completing the task and being declared as winner is more thaN enough

How i wish that this simple thing can be activated everytime we choose to play gambling but this is far from reality,lets just hope someday people will go to casino or in gambling sites with a sole purpose and thats to Play and Enjoy and will consider the winning as bonuses

Jackpot is not going to happen many times in your life time or even at once so you don't have that intention while gambling.Just fun on games which can be obtained from normal games as well.

Yea,  we did this sort of betting a lot while we were kids. We bet on almost any competition but in the end the losingside  always refuse to pay. I guess in a real bet both parties are  suppose to  stake or put money on the table before the competition. I don't remember us doing it that way . It was just word of mouth things.

Even though the jackpot is not easy to achieve, yet the reward is too much high that many people will still go for it.

Coming to the OP topic, i think online gambling is for everyone as it allow a lot of benefits over the physical casino.  The best think which i enjoy about online gambling is that i can play it anytime while being at home.

 there is always all the games filled with the gambling people were trying to bet in most of the games that they were using and playing so I think the future will not be without the gambling in any type of games but it is need to be more positive in all types and all times.

We often bet on things kind of: "you'll see, I was right. Let's bet on that!", but the usual prize is a bar of chocolate or like 10€, it is not much I know, but such prize and should be when you are gambling with friends or relatives.

I did not win or lose lots of money, but yes i am gambling with my friends. Sometimes 'hey you will not drink 12 beers' or sometimes a basic ps game and who lose, he will buy our dinner.

True, even my husband, don't really understand what bitcoin really is, he knows to gamble but he doesn't know how to gamble online, he doesn't care on it, he is more on physical activities so he is not interested in what I've really known about bitcoin but he actually cares about how my crypto coins and work online, if it is just fine or needs more on to time to focus.

The excitement i think is almost the same, especially when you are playing Dota/Mobile Legends where you can here trashtalks from both team. It may not give higher profit just like in casinos, but if you’re a player you will fight for it. Normal games are not good for everyone, and that’s why simple games in casinos are invented to simply make money.

Maybe you guys don't know what you are talking about. I think you are still talking about regular gambling, I'm curious what type of normal games. There are no jackpots, no bonuses, or whatever, it's just the natural way that human beings entertain themselves. This might be for a different time for discussion. It's a different thing knowing that it's not a regular casino game.

---

Uhm, I think you have the wrong topic lol. I didn't talk about online gambling or benefits in a physical casino.

---

This example is one I was thinking of recently because I have experienced something similar to that and no matter what I do, I always lose lol. Maybe I'm not just fit in it.

I'm in a group of people and there's a time that they talk about playing an online games with different departments in their company... All of the departments who wants to join will going to pay a fee and all the fees will be held by a middle man and whoever wins in the finals they're going to get the prize, I don't know which games it is CS or Multi Player Battle Arena.

Well yes if you're going to focus... Gambling is everywhere and betting is not about betting a money,you can bet everything, you're time, effort, things, etc.

So you need to give the right information to your husband as you are his closest person in your home. I am sure that he will understand how bitcoin works and even he can think that using bitcoin is too worth for gamble and I think he will use the other coins which is cheaper than bitcoin.

Oh, by the way, don't forget always to remind him to not playing gambling every day because you know the effects of gambling in a long time. I am sure that he will listen to you and he will prevent himself from staying on a gambling website for a long time.

Well, I certainly do that together with my friends like that we are bettint even on a single thing on what will possibly happen if we do this or we do that, part of the childhood that I totally miss but we certainly not doing it right now because it seems not fun anymore since we are almost busy with our careers right now. But indeed, betting on normal games as well as normal games is a real fun thing to do which brings back the memories when we were a child enjoying our childishness that everything seems to be a competition betting what possibly could happen in which I always win all the way around. But when I grow up I have learned that those things we are doing before seems to be boring anymore that is why I have engaged already into an  online casino (https://to.crwd.cr/smtm) which I enjoy variety of games I can bet on but does not certainly aim for profit but the fun and entertainment as well as their great welcome bonus for just doing your first deposit.

That's all about if having fun and get involve into the society.  Socialization us very important to know the place where we belong, gambling is not just to make money if we win but it also to have experience and gather more friends.  The money we received from winning is just a compliment from few hours we do the task and shouldn't have to take a big deal if ever we lose.

Maybe you are playing with your workmates. I have a friend who has a similar situation with you and they held a tournament where the winner, obviously, wins the total cash prize. It has a contribution and it would be nice to have entertainment, especially if you have a routine job or something. I know they are playing Mobile Legends with it and they formed groups consisting of 5 members. Complete team.

---

Oh, those things that happen, everyone is growing up and having other priorities. Some of my friends also are busy and some of them have families, not just their careers. We all have grown up and the spark is not the same anymore, I guess everyone experienced it in some way. Gambling online is different when you gamble with your friends, the latter is more interesting.

Yeah, I remember that. In my younger age, sometimes I gamble with my friend especially about one person who will show up in front of us while we are eating in the mall. If that person is a man, then my friends or I will be the winner. If that person is a woman, then one of us will be the winner, it depends on what we choose. That is actually not a gamble for many of us but me, and it's a little gamble because I don't gamble in a game in my age ;D

That is indeed a difference man. You just cannot compare the gambling in casinos and that online and gambling is a win/loss thing which is pretty obvious to people who prefer to play at casinos rather than the online thing. Such people have what it takes to keep the nerves strong and at times win handy at the table.

But, risk is the main factor and the risk lover people prefer to go for it. Those the risk averse in gambling are inclined towards playing the online stuff.

Gambling with normal games are really fun way back my childhood days remembering how me and my friends always do bets on everything just like we are doing so much competition way back then. But it seems gambling with normal games now ain't no fun anymore because we are already teenagers. I would love to know what variety of games that online casino you were talking about has so I can try them on my own.

By reading the experiences of most it looks like we are all leaving the teenage/childhood days and we are going up into the reality today. We can gamble almost with every normal games that we've been playing as we grow older but when we're older, we have a lot of choice to gamble with and basically we don't like anymore those traditional childhood games that we want. The most popular today, are the computer games in general in every category, we're living now into a cyber world lol.

I think one thing is for sure, that those were the days we were innocent and still gambling happens and no matter the age or whatever era you are. It's a universal language that everyone knows and putting something at stake makes it more interesting. That's where we are now, more interesting games and more virtual realities connecting people more.

We usually do that, betting money who'll gonna win on boxing. We do that whenever a famous boxer will have a universal fight. It makes the game more thrilling whenever I think that I can win the bet and can double my money I put on it.

There is also a kind of gambling  on our place but not only on boxing but also on basketball  but the game admin only starting the game as soon as there are major games or major fights  in short , its only happening rarely although this is still a good idea to experience a new kind of gambling especially offline or locally . i still play online gambling if i have the urge to play or if ever my hands were itching .

Anyone wants to gamble in "Rock–paper–scissors"? We can do live video call on skype for example  ;D

We also did this in my friends especially when having boxing events like Pacman fight or even NBA finals, we have a betting game who win at the end. While watching there's a thrill on it and hoping that the team you've will win on that match. In that simple betting, we've much enjoyed even someone got to lose.

Sometimes, I did with MotoGP with my friends. We make a bet for who will going to win, and from 5x we watch the game, I can win for at least 2x ;D

Although the money inside the bets is not big, it's enough to get some cash from my friends ;D

That is a good time in my life because I can beat my friends.

Interesting game, how can you determine that no one's gonna cheat or slow in phasing his hands to rock-paper-scissors?

I think many players have done that with their friends, me and my friends are gambling in PES, with 8 friends making cups and prizes of money collected from each player's wallet, and the winner will get all that money, certainly skills is more dominant in this gambling lol

This could be an interesting one but in some kind of online gambling we sometimes face trust issue and we get irritate when we don’t get good response to see people involving with us, cheating in games is so common but in some games there are some rules that will have to be follow by the gamblers, so it helps the gamblers avoid being cheat by the opponent.

I didnt thought about it... Maybe then we can record a short video of 3 figures in a row and upload?. And then record new if there will a draw.

Better idea that you have come up with, this can avoid the possibilities of the other side seeing your pick earlier or later than him. With the recorded choice you made, there's no way to change it once it was sent to you. Have you found an opponent?

I do bet on these boxing matches, even if that boxer is not that popular or famous I also bet on him as long as I knew or know his skills as a boxer and also, if you are betting on them you should know his opponent. I do usually these with my best friend but he's busy now with his job so I don't have anyone to bet with now. That is the reason I knew sports betting online.

I guess a bunch of research is needed to have that needed outcome that you want. With boxing matches, it's hard to predict what is going to happen when both of the fighters have skills. If you really have a bunch of money that you can afford to lose, you can go and bet on the underdog (higher multiplier) and hope for the best. It's fun to do that if you win. Lol.

These are some good memories which all of us has. I still think that gambling with friends in casino is a lot better experience than doing gambling alone online through Internet.



The risk of gambling is same in online and offline gambling. But when you are a casino, the support staff is always there in case you need any help. Whereas it is not as easy to contact support in online gambling, in case something wrong happens like deposit / withdrawal problems.

I think most of us was initially exposed to gambling that way. Through simple everyday games that we do regularly. We can gamble of anything you know. Fromoir daily routine, to sports, to politics and entertainment. People have been doing this for a long time.

Lol we did similar thing with vehicles. We would bet on brand of cars that would pass next while peeping through the window to watch them pass. My sibling would bet on  Mercedes for example while  i bet on Nissan...If Nissan passes next, I win the bet.

For me both are having the same strategies because playing online and offline both are good for us, we will have to be wise and decide what is good for us and what be afforded by us, I know it is very enjoyable way of making money when you gamble, with your friends you will be better aware of his thinking and mind set, so it improves our confidence.

Yes that is something thrilling about betting/gambling on normal game. I remember how people used to gamble over FIFA match using cryptocurrency in Canada. This type of gambling is based on your speculation about the power house of each team. More better than gambling in a casino because here the risk of loosing is not wide spread unlike in casino.

I think there's much more advantageous using crypto on sportsbetting, because you don't need towards physical appearance handing your funds. You only need to have deposited amount using online web network used to bet for your preferred team on sports. Normal games actually need much of your cash money, unlike with virtual games it only need small portion of digital currency in order to enjoy gambling with few amount.

Basically this kind of betting is normal everywhere, bet with your favorite sports whether you are the players or bet with your favorite teams which we know as sports betting.

Can we escrow the game? This is a great comment so far. Its a normal game and a great mindset for you to win.
This is how we play before, my childhood are almost the same with this one. Wow, I've been into gambling since my childhood because of this street games where you can easily play and earn enough money to buy some candies, this is really great!

Geez, I cannot believe that we have a similar experience in the past lol. Yeah, that was a great time for me with my friend, and in that time, I don't think that was a part of gambling lol. And the fact is in our life, and we are playing gambling even with our destiny. Sometimes we win, sometimes we are a loser.

Yes, this is a great idea. Gambling with a very simple game is very fun. I've been betting on a computer game with my friend a long time ago. I mean, I played gambling through computer games. We got the bet in the football game. That means if I win then I will win in gambling and if my friend wins then he will win in gambling. It was a little money gambling. But money is not a big deal. The big thing is fun. Fun is so much bigger. We got a lot of fun through playing gambling. So I think it's a lot better to bet with a simple game than a big game.

Thank you

The most common game I have witnessed through out my life is cricket and have seen people gambling about different teams and in different leagues. I love to do the same but to be honest, it is not legal in my country so you have to make sure you do it in a very secret way in order to escape the legal charges that other people have to bear in case of custody. But in the same time, it is very interesting and full of fun and thrill.

I mean this is not a gambling game for me as an example but, whenever the new year comes my parents and some of my aunts are throwing money for us children on the ground. At that time, I got around 50 dollars. Ez win for me though.

You can and should play with your friends not for money, but for example for drinks or cigarettes. If you play with your friends for money, then sooner or later mutual insults arise and you can lose a friend.

Are you still a kid? Congratulations to you that you are still able to join those types of games lol.

The most interesting and hilarious thing we placed a bet on is the NBA2K ( I forgot what year was it ). We let 2 AI's as players 1 and 2 to play the game and before we start the game, we choose which team we put our bet. So literally we just let the computer run and play the game on its own while we're watching like a real NBA game lol.

I've said this in other threads, its definitely possible to place a bet on your own game vs someone.   You would challenge them via the gamesite and play on their site, payout etc.   Also there is betting for professional esports games as well as that.

  I'm not allowed to just drop refer links, but ask me via message and I'll advise you where to go and hopefully one of them fits. All established sites, I've used them all myself and most of them do giveaways

That's not a friendly game I think. Being bully or busted with your friends while playing isn't good at all. It is better not play with them instead to find another opponent to play with.
I supposed to gamble with the person which I may not know yet cause we can expect more plays than a usual thing we do.

Not exactly competition but I used to go to an aunt for Christmas and we'd have bingo till morning. With my luck (or rather lack of) never really won anything big. It seems the new homeowner's association here also plan to keep having bingo games during the Christmas party since last went well.

It's technically gambling but since it's holidays it's not considered illegal. If it's the same where you live, you can probably organise something similar in your community. Maybe mobile games competition as well for the kids since bingo isn't exacly fashionable to them.

That's right, I'm glad that I have like-minded people. My friends and I are often going to drink beer or something stronger, while we can play poker, but we never play for money. Usually, we use chips so that we can bet, but we do not buy out chips for money but give them away for free.
