I want to share my story lately, actually writing this while hearing people discussing gambling at the coffee shop now. It’s that familiar feeling we all get when hearing someone talk about making a good 100x returns from gambling in the crash game, how easy it seems then suddenly, the urge to try it yourself kicks in even with my big knowledgeof how really gambling is and the tight chances of making something like that. Everyone here is topping up their accounts, thinking they will get the same crazy gains. But deep down, I know it’s not that simple.

What’s more worrying to me is that the casino they are using seems suspiciously relatedr to one known scam casino around here. I won’t mention its name because I don’t want to promote something shady, but it definitely raises much red flags as it's targeting my region now. It's worrying also to see how tempting it can be, especially when people are caught up in the excitement, but I feel like I need to step back and share my story among with the feelings I got towards it. Anyone else feeling this pressure too? Let’s have a discussion and share your opinions.

Every time I quit gambling for a while it is funny that I almost always stumble on some streamer in streaming platforms or even go play for fun in the providers website as a cure to stop gambling with real money, when in fact it is exactly these sites that make me go and try again, for example yesterday I was browsing No Limit City slot machines in their official website and I never took the time to control thoroughly there yet yesterday I did and they had a lot of replays, video wins and a lot of other things that made me go and try again and the result was the same, broke as always. So these type of big wins are false positives, like when for example you have a false sense of security when you go into an exam thinking you will pass and in fact you fail, I am totally against these type of "so called big wins" as they lead only to mass destruction of one finances.

Fortunately, I don't put emotions into gambling and I just keep betting with small amounts, something really for fun, but I know people who used to play with small amounts, but after seeing people betting on social media groups and seeing photos of big wins, these people I know started copying everything they were seeing on the social media group. They started thinking that gambling should be about big wins. I remember that one day I asked them why they weren't looking at gambling just as fun anymore. Their answer was: it doesn't make sense for them to spend time analyzing the games and then win a little money that won't change anything in their lives. That's why they were placing many teams in the multi bet because that way they could win a lot of money if they got it right.

People who assumes they can win something that is purely based on luck is having delusions and probably due to someone they knew managed to win but gambling doesn't work like that, one can only win if they are supposed to win and I wouldn't take any risk because I am expecting more win and the same way is the safest way to maneuver in your gambling career if you don't want to bust your savings or salary of a month just because you felt some stupid sign or whatever it is.

It is always important to practice the responsible gambling behaviour, bet the smallest amount that will not hurt you in anyway even if you lose the bet.

That's what happened to me a few years ago, hanging out with friends and then the discussion turned to gambling and all the big win stories came flooding in. Not long after that I felt a strong pressure & intention to gamble, you know what happened then? I got a big win like my friends stories. I realized it was not a good habit, I still gamble now, but I stopped gambling because of the pressure.

it happens a lot of time and if you're not careful, even when you had no plan of gambling that day, you might end up trying your luck to see if you might get lucky with the game or not. You might think you're emotionally strong to resist such urge untill you literally get into that mix and they talk about the game as though it's impossible for it not to enter.

It's something that happens and even if you fall for it it's not like it's going to be all that bad except you allow yourself to gamble with an amount that's far above your budget. It's best to make it compolsary that you can't go above certain limit so you're certain that for that moment of being vaulnaurable, you're still gambling with an amount that's of your limit which is what matters most at the end. Don't be supprised that you might get lucky to win the game on that said day you decided to follow such urge if gambling because of stories of big wins.

I completely understand where you're coming from. And I think it's important that you be aware of those red flags. The lure of huge 100x returns can be really tempting. Especially if people around you are caught up in the hype. It is easy to forget the level of risk involved. And more often than that It often makes you fight back. Hearing stories about quick wins can stimulate the desire to get involved. But as you said It's not that easy.

However, the fact that you know the shadow of casino practices is a huge advantage. It is worrying how many people fall into these traps. Especially when they don't take the time to research the platforms they use. When talking about online gambling It is essential to stick with licensed and reputable websites. Although it is difficult to prove that something "too good" must be completed. Perhaps here we can start a conversation about how others deal with gambling impulses. Especially when they are aware of the risks. It can help people hear different ideas about how to stay grounded and not fall prey to fraud.


I agree with you on this! Many of the people fall into the trap that they can screw things up. Especially when they hear of great achievements of other people. It is easy to forget that basically, gambling is based on luck. and the door will always be there. This makes winning consistently nearly impossible in the long run.

So the fun of victory can, in a way, be decided in the clouds. People feel they are in "Hot trend" or it must win This can only lead to unsafe bets and huge losses. That's why gambling responsibly, as you say is so important bet only what you can afford to lose. And you won't chase losses. Perhaps I can even tell you what strategies people use in their effort to control this gambling behavior, and avoid falling into the trap of such a mindset, as it all pertains to the good balance and letting your emotions drive your decisions.


Thank you for sharing your story. I can avoid stress completely! It is amazing how social factors can stimulate the desire to be satisfied. Especially when you hear stories of big wins it makes you feel like you're losing when you are. You're not doing your best. And it looked like an early win. It will help strengthen that feeling. And that makes the comeback even more difficult.

It's great to see you recognize your stress and change your habits. I think a lot of people fall into the trap of chasing that big win. Especially after hearing other people's success stories or experiencing it yourself. But as you said Gambling under pressure or outside factors can quickly become a bad habit. I still gamble too. But I've found that setting limits and knowing when you're stressed is key to staying in control it's a matter of balance enjoying it without letting it overwhelm you. I'd like to know how other people manage that balance.

Whether we deny it or not, most gamblers are tempted by the thought of money, especially when a friend or relative wins big. It makes us want to try it ourselves, just to see if we can experience the same thing. The temptation is real, and that’s one of the reasons why people, even those with no knowledge of gambling or awareness of scam sites, still get involved. It’s unfortunate, but in my opinion, it’s also a good learning experience. It helps them understand the reality of gambling, because many think it’s easy to win, but the truth is, it’s actually much easier to lose.


You'd rather say the name of the casino, as it is not promoting but instead gives awareness to the public. And it was just like that, as you also save a lot of gamblers from not falling into the trap of scammers.

If you are feeling pressured to play whenever you hear news like this means you are easy to get addicted since you can’t handle yourself when it comes to gambling.

Gambling is form of entertainment which mean you only need to play whenever you want some fun not because due to others story of big win. It’s normal to feel positive on your own game whenever you hear lucky story but not to the point you will be pressured to play immediately.

You should gamble based on your own feeling that you like not because you are motivated by others.

Any of the methods people use in making money today are always full of temptation from those that are not engaging in it, both legal and illegal means of making money are all involved in this stereotype. I have heard this for a very long time now that all fingers are not equal and so, you should not expect to achieve the same success or wealth as other people may achieve when you try the same thing they are doing. You shouldn’t be tempted to try anything you’re not ready for mentally and physically. A lot has happened with stuffs like this and people should not fall victims of this type of things.

 At the point you see yourself wanting to do what others are doing to make money after seeing their big wins, you should know that it’s temptation that is pushing it, don’t fall for it easily in order not to lose that money. Those guys having that discussion of trying a new casino that is related to scam needs to be told that they should not try it out, it is now left for you to either tell them or not as this has to do with your own kind of being and how you feel towards people when they’re onto the wrong direction. The feelings you’re having is mutual and almost everyone that is into gambling or some other means of making money are having that feelings to try what others are doing in order to make money too.

 I've always got this belief that I have stayed away from gambling for so long, and I try to attempt it again, there's a big chance that I'd hit a win. I don't know if there are others who have this belief but it's crazy and so when I hear about the wins of others especially how they placed their bets without putting in too much expectations, the urge to give mine a try is so strong but then again I discover that the essence of abstaining from gambling since I begin to notice it's becoming an addiction may then be useless especially if I start chasing losses if the first doesn't work so I try to not welcome those thoughts and instead do something else that might be productive.

This feeling is familiar to me. I think that the same feeling is familiar to many players. Sometimes the excitement is even so exciting that you can give in to the impulse and do some stupid thing. For example, I noticed for myself that under the influence of such a feeling, I can make a big bet, and completely imprudently. So, yes, stories about other people's winnings can actually provoke excitement.
However, this is part of the gambling industry's strategy to attract players, there is nothing special about it, but sometimes it has a strong effect.

How is that promoting when you would say they are shady and they look like a scam?
Actually not naming them would do more harm to the community as more people would get tricked into playing at that website, so no point hiding their name as long as you have some serious proof they are cheating their customers or promoting fake wins.


Pressure for what? If people around you will tell you they've found gold while diving in the river would you grab your swimsuit and go hunting for gold to get rich? If they tell you they've met a guy who managed to sell their kidney for $100k and then a month back get a new one for $50k so they've made 50k from it would you agree to it?
This thing about pressure is nonsense, if you're that easily influenced by what people talk around you gambling or not you are going to run into far worse problems in your life!

It's all over social media and I think that's also one reason why gambling is such a big temptation nowadays. Here in our place, you will hear the word "Scatter" from young people and old ones and it tells how popular gambling is especially slots.
If you can avoid playing, please do. Sure, it's nice to hear someone winning high multipliers but let's also ask ourselves how much they spent before receiving such a high amount. Others would spend millions before they can even see a high multiplier in most of their time gambling while others will get lucky to receive it early but also spend some so they don't feel the big profits.
There's actually one worse temptation that one gambling site here in our country did, put it on a billboard where the train goes, and the trains here are always crowded which means many will definitely see it. Resist, that's what you can do.

I know what you are talking about and I want to share my story with you guys,  I was with a friend  at the barber. He played some rounds until he made a 1000% profit in a short period of time not exceeding 05 minutes everyone was surprised and started asking about how to get that amount the problem is that some of them don't know anything about gambling and  when we started talking about the services provided by the casino, I found that the majority defend it and do not have enough informations about it , there are those who don't want to know anything about the safety of their money and the important thing for them is to play.

The bottom line is that people at the present time don't  care about anything, just making a quick profit in betting without looking at the risks, considering it the easiest way.

It is a different thing to play in a casino with the excitement of winning and when you win then you don't get your profit. That is very disheartening.

However, we don't need to go into gambling just because someone around us was lucky to win whether big or small big. Doing that is a trap whose result can be disastrous because such kind of gambler would go in all out and using very substantial money for it as they are only chasing to get same huge winning with the person without being mindful that gambling is luck base and the reason for gambling with money you can bear when you lose. So it is always proper to be cautious and not be envious of someone's winning.

The Crash game is indeed tempting, especially for newcomers, when the rocket flies and stops with you 100x that's where people think this is an opportunity for us to achieve a big win, remember gambling is gambling, you will never achieve your dreams in broad daylight.

I have felt the phenomenon you mentioned, when I saw the account in the Crash game winning almost $100k, I took a bet and waited for the rocket to stop and I got the money, but it was all a joke, I almost lost everything and I really didn't get that win, almost 20 rounds I tried, none of them ever got the highest rocket, whether it was a trap or another system, What is clear is that the game Crash really made me not as beautiful as I imagined.

For this reason, gamble as much as we can, what we get is our fortune and what other people get is their fortune, don't be greedy for other people's winnings, we don't necessarily get what our friend got.

Being able to control yourself is one of the indications of healthy gambling. When someone finds that point, it will be difficult for them to become a problem gambler no matter how bad their losses are. From my story, I realized very quickly that the behavior was not good, so until now I still hear their stories without taking them too seriously.

Thank you for sharing your story. Many people are influenced by the stories of big win by others. They want to try it out and hope they win too. They'll ask for tips and all from whoever was the recipient of the win. But this is not the case when there is a loss. In fact there are hardly people who share their stories of loss. Since you know you know about the casino and you were in the same place where the story was being shared, I think you have some obligation to speak up, so as to give a balanced view of wins and losses to those who are already deluded that they will be as lucky as the other person. It is on you to speak up and save some folks from irresponsible gambling.

This is one of my weakness and that of most gamblers I know. The news of big win is one thing that make people change their mind about some gambling decisions especially on the aspect of quitting or taking a break. I have lost count of how many times I decided to take a long break from gambling or even stop gambling but just the time I take the decision I will hear of big win from a friend or someone I know. Unfortunately, after returning as a result of this kind of news, winning will become magically scarce. I have not found a panacea for this kinds of come back though.

It's not really a pressure? It's just greed imo. No one's really pressuring people to play cause someone hit big. And as for the good news thing, it's really understandable imo, greed is an innate quality of humans and denying that just seems kind of dumb. I'd probably feel the same, definitely not playing on whatever casino they're trying to promote though. I play on my own terms for the most part. Heck I've probably done that exact thing already in the past, just not coming back to me right now.

I’m guilty about this because every time I watch streamer winning big I always feel that I can do the same and later on have an interest to gamble even though I don’t have plans that time.

There’s a time that I’m just so relax and casually browsing on my social media until I stumble on gambling content that highlights huge win. I immediately gamble and regret my loss since I’m just comfortably relaxing while I gamble unplanned and loss.

It’s terrible to lose money out of nowhere just because I encouraged by those bs gambling content.

In short it means there's a scammer aka agent from the scam casino at that coffee shop? I think the casino you refer is "1xshet".

I think that's normal, the reason why people join to gamble because they see their friends gamble or heard someone make a lot of money from it. When you're in a crowd, don't try to act like a hero by discouraging or stop people to gamble, instead talk with them one on one. Some people use their emotion over their brain, you might fall in debate or fight when you disagree with them.

Yes to be honest, I feel the urge to gamble when I read about winning on games that I'm playing; in my case, its lotto and horse racing, but on other games I am not tempted I only get tempted to play on games that I am comfortable of playing and had a chance of winning.
Its ok to feel envious, but just be sure that what you are envious of are winners from the games that you can also win. What's good if you gamble in a game that you do not know how to play and have zero chance of winning?

Sometimes situations like this apply to investing principles: when the return seems too good to be true, it’s probably a scam. Winning big in gambling isn’t impossible, but the problem is we often ignore the risks because we’re too tempted by the big reward. That’s called greed, and it clouds our ability to think realistically, which usually leads to bigger losses instead.

We are all different, we are all not the same, what works for A might not work for B, this is also happening with investments, for example meme coins have been turning people into millionaires in this bear market already, I've read good news on twitter about people turning small amount of dollars into something significant, so I decided to give a try, I was burnt throughout all my trials.

I later stopped and go back to my old way "finding good utility coins" then my good luck came back, this shows that I can't keep doing others are doing even if its working for them, who am I? This is why we have different names and parents, there is more than meets the eye.

I will keep saying this about gambling, I found my peace with gambling since the day I plan to just keep gambling with what I can and it is not a must to gamble every day or week, gambling isn't the best way to make money, if that's what you want be ready to lose some money, and you might not get good luck on the long run.

In fact, emotional gambling is not possible because there is a substantial risk of losing money. So i would like to say that it is never a game of emotions, so anyone who has the mental strength to lose money can only bet on gambling. All over social media and i think that's one of the reasons why gambling is such a big temptation these days. Moreover, all categories of people are involved here. There are many people who will show big winnings but if you research you can see how much they spent before they got the big amount. On the other hand they will also spend some money so that they do not experience big gains. There is no dearth of gambling sites in my country and people are flocking there without any restrictions as a source of earning money.

Since you said this, I reconsidered things and it makes more sense to share the name of the casino for one reason which creating more awareness to the community and public. Can you please confirm the relation between: 1xbet and 1xbit. Because this first one is a hype in our country where many people are depositing significant amounts, shop store are offering deposits with our local currency. The biggest issue now is the lack of awareness about its addiction.

Please if you could confirm the relationship between these two casinos, because 1xbit is a very known scam casino with several cases and accusations against them. If both casinos belong to the same team, simply 1xbet are also scammers.

Both of them are owned by the same company (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5412793.msg60903718#msg60903718), so yeah both of them are scammers.

It's quite surprising that people in your country are talking about this casino instead of local casino, this casino also paid many influencers for advertisement, but in the end people are discussing about local casino.

It seems they're focus with 1xbet rather than 1xbit now since 1xbit already has very bad review.

I have learnt to put my emotions in check when am gambling and that is why am not always moved by the news of big win.  If the win is coming from a close friend of mine, I would be happy for him and I do not mind getting some token from him or drinks on him.

I would rather use the money I have to invest or save. Come to think of it, I do not know how much the person spent or how many losses you had before he got a big win. It is very rare for casino to give someone a return of 100x especially a first trial but if it true, that's avenue to get more users in order to collect their hard earned money.

Gambling is all about luck you never can tell when you might hit a big win. We hear stories of people winning millions from small amounts of money and this is what propels us to gamble more so we can get the same benefits. One thing I have come to understand is that the more you chase after luck in gambling the more you find yourself on the losing side.Do not let other peoples win be your driving force to gamble. Take your own risks within your limits when you are comfortable with it, doing it to get the results of others will only get you addicted.

The key on here for you to save yourself on such problem is to make yourself having that kind of mindset that you shouldnt really be making yourself having that kind of desperation
when it comes into your gambling habit or dealing on which its something that should really be done for fun and never make yourself having that kind chasing up on whatever
that kind of greed that you would really be having on your emotion on which this is really that mostly that could really be potentially be happening. This is why it will really be that best
that you should really know about on how to control those urges and will really be able to spot out immediately if you do find yourself having that kind of desperate actions or moves
because of that uncontrollable greed.

Admittedly, similar feeling happens to me and have pushed me to gamble after a friend mentioned how much he won, although it didn't help in anyway but cost losses, I understood that those big wins does one job for the casino; tempt witnesses. However, just like a member said, it's nice to congratulate the winner and focus on your gambling strategy, instead of, rushing to make a kill because a friend did.

Maybe this is similar just like OP stories that recently i have been received some messages from unknown number into my smartphone that they were showing some proof that they can able to win with huge amount of money in gambling and those people also offering if we created account and deposit on the particular gambling sites so they will help us to gets the winning results from those gambling sites but for me telling the stories about huge winning and encouraging people to inspired to gambling is not more than scam attempts because certainly their stories most likely is fake and in gambling everybody knows that the results is depend on people luck and never starting to gambling because inspired by huge winning from people stories

if you place your bet only when you are safe to achieve a win you will never things to be in a need for a bet for other reasons.
gamblers receive a lot of signals from environment and some of these signals are also "masked" and hide, really hard to be understood at a first glance.
that's why gamblers (for sure gamblers in sports that doesn't rely in "luck") need to follow some strict schemes.

Yes when I was a newbie and starting out as a gambler, I've always been lured by envy If they can do it I can do it and I can do better, This result to a lot of losses because your motivation is on making money and its hard to have fun and concentrate on winning if you have pressure running in your head.
Until I realize that people have their own time and ways of winning huge amounts of money, and it doesn't have to be immediate.

I think that when you are tempted by something, it’s important to share what you feel and your concerns because you would be harming yourself if you continued to gamble.

Getting caught up in the stories and being excited about them will definitely make you want to do it, but it’s always going to be different when you do it. It would help if you manage your risk as well.

I hope you do something that will manage your urges. Check the other members' posts as well, OP.

One of the main mistake of other people or shall we say that most of them will really be trying out to reflect themselves that they are on such condition on which they do assume that they could also do it or able to experience it without even trying to think that luck factor isnt something that could be copied or mimic out. It do comes randomly and we do all know that but shockingly people do really have those kind of mindset
on which they do really believe that it could possible. This is why they would really be thriving on trying out to copy it or will really be having those kind of considerations that they will be making out on the same action until they will really be finding themselves on a disaster condition and make out those kind of realizations that it cant be possible. People do learn up on the moment that they do experience shit situations.

Temptation is there specially if you are an individual who do get easily being hype up when you do see someone win up something big. For me them im not that type of person whose really that easily get dragged with the hype and would really be just that minding my own business and wont really be trying out to copy about lucky situations of other gamblers because this one will really be just that resulting for you to become desperate
on trying out to copy others when it comes into their lucky conditions. There are really those moments or times that you will really be that become hopeful.

Actually, the feeling of wanting to achieve the same big win when hearing other people talk about their wins is common, especially when we are in bad condition with series of consecutive defeats.
Even I myself have experienced the same thing and really followed my heart to bet again until finally winning and getting profit is not easy as expected.
Indeed, sometimes we need to act like we don't pay attention to other people talk about gambling to avoid having bad influence on ourselves.

I belong to a social media platform where most members are gamblers. In some weeks, many of them will drop slips of big wins, and I am always tempted to gamble more than I can afford. Those wins sometimes motivate me to use their betting codes/numbers to place mine. I have known before now that gambling wins are mainly determined by luck, so seeing others win shouldn't trigger me because I might not be as lucky as they are.

These days some shady casinos can do anything to attract customers. They usually pay or partner with some celebrities or streamers to promote their games. Immediately I suspect anything shady in the operations of a casino, they will be immediately blacklisted. And I will also encourage others not to patronize them regardless of their tempting promotions.

Not long ago, people were afraid to talk about gambling with their friends in public places, afraid of being misunderstood, of others thinking that it was something illegal or at least immoral, that it was something for thieves or people who didn't want to work and were looking for dishonest ways to make easy money.

Nowadays, fortunately, this is no longer a problem. With the exception of a few countries and religions, gambling is well accepted in society and there is very little discrimination. However, what you mentioned is another problem that has arisen along with it....

The popularity and ease of access to gambling has allowed many clandestine or unregulated games to emerge. After all, the market demand is very high. Many people are looking for gambling and don't care much about their safety. Many are easily influenced by friends and put a lot of money on sites they barely know or have researched.

I hope that soon there will be more regulation (for the better) and that the betting market will be safer for everyone.

The thing is that everyone behaves the same way, but at the same time they think that they are special and exceptional, because they believe that they will be lucky, and others are not. Why such thoughts arise in many, I can not understand, probably it is selfishness, faith in a better future or some other things. I want to say that everyone sees himself as a winner and does not see himself as a loser, and no one thinks about the reasons, if players continue to think like this, they will lose everything to the last cent. I would advise considering the option of losing too before placing a bet and realizing that this is real, and not just numbers that are displayed on the monitor screen. Perhaps then we will lose less and understand that not everyone will be a winner.

The urge to gamble when you see a friend winning will always be there to try it yourself, and I personally will try it straight away even with minimal capital, at least to satisfy my curiosity, things like this make it very difficult for us to get away from gambling

It is this kind of urge that drove a whole lots of young people into telegram airdrops this year, particularly in my home country. According to an unconfirmed statistics by Africa Fact Zone on Facebook, Nigerians account for over 50% of the population of telegram users in Africa in 2022. Deducting from this figures, coupled with our growing population in the country stroke how Nigerian young people feasted on these telegram airdrops hypes, I can invariably deduct that Nigerians account for over 70% person of Telegram airdrops audience in the continent.

All, because of the media hypes and trends that people benefited from the NOTCOIN and DOGS airdrops. I am using this mindset to make inferences with how people have joined gambling over the years till date because of the information they got from friends of friends winning profitable amount of money from the gambles.

Even though i understand the unlikely probability of winning big, seeing big wins affects me like everyone else.

In fact, seeing or experiencing big wins, is the main reason i used to gamble at all. And weirdly enough, it's only when we hear about big wins, when we think that could happen to us. When we hear about losses that make people lose their houses and spouses, we tend to think that's not going to happen to us. That happens only to addicts that are far gone. Why is that? We really think that we are not as unlucky and vulnerable as everyone else.

At first glance I saw that it seemed like they were beginners in gambling, because as we know that usually a gambler who is still a beginner still has high ambitions in him and thinks that victory will be easily obtained, even though in reality it is not as easy as imagined.

Crash is a type of casino game where your victory really depends on how lucky you are when playing, and as many people say that casinos are always the superior party compared to gamblers, casinos create games with the aim of benefiting them and not to provide easy victory to gamblers.

In the end I am very sure that regret will always be a possibility that will definitely happen, the biggest mistake gamblers make is when they are too confident and think that victory is something that is easy to get.

Many people assume that they can win big just because somebody they know won a huge sum of money from gambling. Back when I used to go to physical casinos, I would often hear people talking about how this person won this amount of money and is now rich. Every weekend, there is always a story circulating of someone who made millions from gambling, this was the motivation of everyone who heard about it to gamble even more. You just have that belief that one day it may be your turn to win.

I can relate and certainly it is a story which hita close home to me. I started to play crash because of the stories I heard and read about people getting insane multipliers out of it, so I felt curious and started to engage with crash games (mostly on Stake) and using a very small quantity to play. I immediately realized Crash is one of the most dangerous and addicting gambling games a casino could have to offer to their gamblers and decided to quit playing it after losing a couple to dollars to that game.

I would certainly never recommend anyone to play Crash as their first experience within the world of gambling, as one can easily lose all one's money in a few minutes or at least in less than an hour. It is a game which requires an extremely tight control of our bankroll and set our objectives straight when we manage to get the chance to get high multipliers rolling. It is not a game for the faint of heart.

Instead of going for crash and similar games to it, it would be better if people focuses their first experiences in gambling to games which are more slow-paced, like blackjack ...

If you are in gambling for long time, you should not be bothered by these kind of hearsays anymore. Because you already know the fact that winning is not for all. You may get envy, but think of your financial conditions before you spend more in this addictive activity.


Being envious, I believe is human nature. However, you need to think about your financial conditions before you splurge your funds into something you have no control of. Also, just think that you can never go back if you lose your money in gambling. So better dedicate your funds into more tangible assets, that is, if you want to get ahead of your financials.

It is not unusual for us to feel interested when we hear friends or other people who have managed to get big wins, whether in crash games or others. I myself experienced it where I gambled on slots and from the many slot gambling that I did, I did not win big, then with my friend who gambled on a different site but with the same game managed to get a big win even though it was his first gamble.
With this news, of course I feel jealous because why can he who has just gambled get a big win while I who have gambled a lot can't get a big win, as a result I am interested in placing a bet on my friend's casino site but the result is still the same, namely the defeat that occurs. Maybe this is what is called luck, everyone is different from gambling, which I actually think the victory depends on our own luck.

Big wins are something that is usually very difficult to get. In addition, you always need to consider how much money you have spent in advance so that one of your many bets will win. After all, even if we look at a lucky casino streamer and imagine that he is not cheating us (and in most cases he is cheating), how many times does he have to lose before he makes a profit?
Most likely, his losses will greatly outweigh his profits.
In general, the desire for big wins is somewhat similar to the FOMO syndrome in trading.

Mate, I know we want to share our insights but realistically if you had given a couple of strangers some unsolicited advice how much do you think will they consider your advice? They probably have their own biased opinion about the casino already. Though, if you know that it is sketchy, there’s nothing exactly wrong to just warn them.

We already know that sketchy casinos with unrealistic promises can attract the most gullible people in the world and no kind of warning can prevent them from doing stupid decisions anyway.

The only people who often do this style are the streamers who promote gambling; of course, the people who don't know anything, especially if they are poor and want to make money in a small amount that can grow because of playing gambling, will play gambling.

So that's also promoting the casino online on social media platforms. That's why I'm not in favor of influencers or streamers who promote online casinos
because they ruin a lot of other people's lives.

Such encouragement is indeed very natural and often occurs. Actually, it is not from hearing big wins from other people but encouragement from a friend who sometimes gives words like encouraging us to try gambling again.
Different from us in our own home and seeing big wins from other people. Surely as experienced gamblers, we will definitely think that it is very difficult to get. But it is very different from when we gather with our friends and hear them tell stories about big wins, our minds do think it won't be that easy but sometimes a friend seems to encourage us to try betting on the same game.

In conclusion, the surrounding environment greatly influences the urge to gamble. Unlike us who are far from the gambling environment, we will definitely be able to control ourselves better.

It’s not actually a bad idea if you want to try it to yourself with a minimal amount. Yes, you may lose but at least only at a small amount. But if you want to satisfy your greed for instant huge winnings, believe me you are becoming delusional with that. No one wins an exceptional amount without losing a lot first, except for those rare lucky gamblers who only bet first time and boom, instantly hit the jackpot. But most of the time, those who make a huge bet end up losing an immense amount as well, so never fall with that trick and end up their new victim after you lose.

Yes, many people have this desire, and not everyone can stop it. I read posts here on the forum from people who claimed that they knew someone in their village who won a large sum, after which their whole life changed for the better. Yes, this happens, but it is a mistake to think that if someone is lucky, then you will be lucky too. These people play in casinos and call the game earnings, and I just feel sorry for them that they do not understand such trifles and that the game will always remain a game controlled by luck. No one can subjugate winning to themselves, naively believe in a mandatory prize, and call their actions earnings.

Before I joined gambling, I knew very little about it but it was after a close friend of mine won big in gambling that I decided to give it a trial and see if I could also win big like him. Fortunately for me, I won I my first three trials even when I have very little knowledge of how it works and than gave me the full conviction to fully engage in gambling since I thought it'll help me earn money easily but at the end, I lost more than I've ever thought I could lose. I know it's not easy to manage or control the urge that comes with hearing about big wins but before you engage in gambling because of the big wins of others, ensure you can perfectly regulate your gambling activities so you don't end up as a gambling addict.

Information about other people's big wins certainly excites the imagination.

A person who has received such information begins to imagine how he will spend this money. He begins to consider gambling as a source of easy money.

However, this is a cognitive distortion. In order to get a more realistic assessment of this situation, it is necessary to use the methodology of the mathematical theory of probability. In gambling, the greater the risk, the greater the gain. In games based on luck, there are no exceptions to this rule. At the same time, the probability of losing in gambling based on luck is always higher than the probability of winning (on a long time frame).

You can and should gamble, but you cannot give in to emotions - gambling should be an absolutely thoughtful and balanced decision.

You Are The Average Of The Five People You Spend The Most Time With (https://maartenvandoorn.medium.com/you-are-the-average-of-the-five-people-you-spend-the-most-time-with-a2ea32d08c72)

That's why many people are influenced from their friends, if their faith aren't strong enough, they will try everything from their friends. It's why when we were young, we should pick the right circle because as we get older, we can distinguish between the bad and good thing, not like when we were young.

When our friends are born from the same place, going to the same school, etc but they're more richer than us, this will greatly influence us to follow what they do.

I have been in this position a lot of times and. I must say that it's going to put you in the wrong state of mind, gambling out of motivation from other people's wins can make you lose money because you would be gambling out of desperation. Gambling in this unrelaxed state of mind isn't advisable, just because you heard someone won a certain amount of money from gambling doesn't mean you can also get the same results from it. You need to realize that luck comes when you least expect it, chasing after it might make you lose money in the process.

Of course it's going to be enticing to gamble yourself when you see big wins.
Casinos know that and that's why they fund the accounts if their streamers with thousands of dollars at a time.

Streamers play risk free and of course casinos know this will bring them revenue by people who are lured in. It is important to understand that the human mind understands these patterns and if you want yourself to be safe, make sure you avoid thinking this way and stop it right on its tracks when it hits your mind. Just play when you have free time with money you were going to play anyway.

Those casinos or gambling platforms or places are indeed running a business on which of course it will really be just that normal that they would really be doing all sorts of things on which they do know that it could really be something that could spark out someones interest even if it means that they will really be that trying out to make those kind of exposure about having streams with those
influencers who would really be trying out to show off those big wins on which making use of those funded or fake amounts just to make it legit that those are those peoples real money but
actually it is really jus that funded. Some people might not get easily hooked up but majority would really be having that kind of boost up on the moment or time that they will really be having
that kind of encounter or awareness on how things works.

Yes, of course, we will definitely feel the pressure as you said. If we express it directly, they will laugh at us. It is better to meet our friends or best friends so that we are not tempted by what is being said about winning.

Check the circle of that group of people, some of them are either jobless and don't have a steady income, they are just looking for a way to make money and the person giving them that update of winning money from one particular casino knows how  they will be inspire to do it, he knows how hungry they are otherwise, a real person with real sense of gambling will knows that such things doesn't existed, it's either the casino is been market to them to give a try or there is something like scam.


Anytime I see people showing their winnings especially the days I took break from gambling, I feel like I'm not doing my best but then again, i realized that in gambling there is a price to be paid for gambling, you will lose while playing and you will win while playing too and probably those who have won has paid their price. In my own space and time, I will make the same or more than such and I don't worry myself over any gambling winning tickets, focus on your style until you win too.

Crash games do seem easy with 100x wins but the reality is not so, sometimes when I see Crash game contests here people can make profits with 100x more and I am also curious and try it but what I think it never happens, I try to multiply it to 30x it's still difficult, so I now never follow other people's fun anymore because it is certain that the results will be different.

Regarding casinos that are suspicious, they should be avoided, maybe they don't see many accusations so they need to be aware of the fear that the casino will become a scam.

Although a few times I saw streamers who could go 100x in a crash game I would not try it again unless it was my own desire not because of the desire for other people's benefits.

I wouldn’t say I feel pressure when seeing other people win big but certainly it makes you think ‘why not me’ and then go on to place more bets.

What I would say to create some balance is, you may hear about a few huge wins. But the people who are losing money, which there are lots of by the way, are less vocal.

It's totally obvious that; that's what's going to happen because the main reason the person will jump into gambling with that casino in the first place is because of the type of winning he or she sees the streamers win, which can only mean one thing that they are rushing in their to do is to get their own share of winning, which can lead to some kind of bad decision, and the person can even end up using more money than they can afford to lose to gamble with since they will all be luge that winning is guaranteed and secured.

you are right, but the fact that we often see is all about winning, because it is very rare for people to show their losing results, because you are a senior in the casino so it looks normal, different from the view of juniors.

Some gamblers who couldn't make decision on their own would have made some decision all of a sudden because of the little experience they had from other gamblers wining, the next thing you hear from them as well is in using the same winning winning pattern those other people have used, or maybe because of a game having big odds and there is tendencies for winning over it, they would have forgotten that in gambling, its either we win or lose and one of this must happened.

It is very unnecessary showing that you lost a bet, nobody would console you or even have anything to say but showing your winning ticket becomes a big flex. There is often this urge to put in more effort and bet too often just to meetup the poster and go about flexing the win, this is something normal for every gambler but we should not allow ourselves to be carried away and chase after winning eagerly.

And its part of marketing with these kind of businesses on which they would really be using up this kind of weakness of humans on when it comes to the love of money or simply being greedy.  They will really be that making it as attractive as possible on which they will really be able to hook up people to play and make out some deposits after they've seen those influencers who do make out some big hits. It cant really be denied that once you do saw these big wins then you will really be that assuming that you could easily hit it up or do it and this what urges you to make out some deposit and would be trying out for yourself.
It wont really be called marketing stuff if it wasnt really that intended for the sake trying to hook people on making up deposit into the platform. It will really be just that depending into a certain individual since
not all will really be having that kind of losing control whenever they do see some big wins. There are still people who do have that good self control and discipline on whatever that they are seeing online.
They cant really just make themselves make out some outright decisions on which they do know that it could potentially put them in harm.

That’s why most addicted gamblers do find it difficult to stop, because they are just always having the confidence that if they don’t stop gambling, then time will come when they are going to hit a jackpot, they are always being motivated by their fellow gamblers that if they don’t give up, they are definitely going to hit a jackpot, and most of them do see other people’s wins, so it’s always motivating them also, but they don’t know things don’t work like that, you might be gambling for a long time, and you won’t even hit a jackpot, sometimes things like that happen when you don’t even expect it.

Fortunately for me, I'm not gambling if I'm hearing some big wins here and there.

We know that x100 is very hard to achieve on a gambling game, and TBH, whenever I hear (or in this case, read) people winning big in gambling, I just feel happy for them, but I don't feel any urge to do it as well because I know the possible risks that I can face whenever I do the same. As for the suspected casino that you're saying, I guess they just rebranded and targeting your region but nevertheless, telling them that it's a scam is a good thing especially if you see something suspicious.

Don't gamble because you hear other people winning. Gamble because you feel you need to, and you have spare money to use for gambling. These urges that you might feel whenever you hear somebody won huge money might be the reason for you to lose significant amount of money.

Two things that play on a gambler's mind if he is going to do this, and these are greed and envy, especially if the gambler happened to be a newbie. Gamblers have one time or many times had ::) their ego provoked if people they know hit huge wins; some gamblers had a hard time accepting the fact that others are winning easily while for them it took a lot of betting to win; they are driven with the thought that they can do better and had a better strategy.

That's right, with those who experience great losses, it may be precisely those who find it difficult to accept reality or indeed cannot accept the reality that occurs such as defeats that occur more often than wins, it should be with such incidents, for example, such as him experiencing defeat more often and with his friends not requiring a lot of funds can generate profits from this must be seen that everything depends on one's own luck, we ourselves can get victory with funds that do not have to spend a lot if it is time for luck to be on our side. Unfortunately, in my opinion, many people do not care about this, they only focus on what they think, namely the thought that they can get a big and bigger victory than other people around them. However, things like this tend to make them in a sad point, because the rarity or difficulty of victory is a reality, so no matter how hard you try, it does not guarantee that you can get it easily.

100x in crash games can be obtained in many casinos, it's just how much capital must players prepare to be able to get a multiplier like that, because as you said it's hard to get even though it's possible.

What's worrying is clearly not only when you keep aiming for 100x in crash games but when playing at scam casinos, because even though players can achieve what they target, it's very likely they won't enjoy the results because funds cannot be withdrawn for all sorts of reasons.

Tell them if you know them or give them a link to news or review about that casino so they can be careful or even look for another casino to play at.

Tempted of course bu I'm never feel under pressure when I see other gamblers getting high results because from those results we don't know how much has been lost.

I understand what you are saying, it's certainly tempting for beginners and young people to watch someone winning big money and think they can do it too. It can really seem so simple and easy, but the reality is totally different. Everyone learns this over time and after losing a lot of money.

It's not often talk with younger people about gambling, but when I do I always mention all the dangers of gambling, especially when it comes to slots and other games of chance. Basically, I'm talking about the same thing I'm writing here. It's all fun & games as long as they risk what they can afford to lose.

I gamble I don't feel that pressure, my desire comes from within... I like to gamble. Gambling is tricky because money is involved, the thrill is at a higher level, and it's very easy to get lost in it... Winning and losing are part of every game, so people should be aware that they can very easily lose everything by trying to win the game.

I have been gambling for over 20 years, so I don't feel that pressure, my desire comes from within... I love to gamble. Gambling is tricky because money is involved, the thrill is at a higher level, and it's very easy to get lost in it... Winning and losing are part of every game, so people should be aware that they can very easily lose everything by trying to win the game.

Right, that is really tempting for us gamblers, when we thought that we over with it, then when we hear or see someone wins big, we try to play and see if we can duplicate it. For two weeks though I was able to stop gambling, I'm not even touching some of the games that I played online like baccarat and slot games and roulette.

Unfortunately, I'm just too week as at the start of the week, I don't know, try to deposit $100.00 and I just lost all the money very quickly with those luck base games. So it's not that very easy to quit when everyone around you is screaming gambling. Like the ads that you see in your social media and again, those stories that you hear to your friends when you talk to them.

They really have to market and paid those streamers thousands of dollars, because they know that it will comeback 10 fold for them. It's a booming business and everyone could be a victim as we all know that streamers are all over the place.


And for sure there could be local streamers too, we have one here in the Philippines who said to have won big. However, this guy is already a multi millionaire even before promoting gambling. And my friends says that he sign under him and he also won big. But he didn't show me proof of his winning, so I have doubts on this story as most likely it's not true. But the point is that he was influence by this guy and so these streamers are successful and we don't know many many have fallen for this trick already.

You are right, the next question will be, 'why him and not me? And they will decide to try even harder, there are two sides to this though, it is helpful if you are watching a friend who is doing his best on everything and you want to surpass him too, this can make one to break boundaries and go far in life, but not in gambling, you will only end up hurting.

---

Some people also takes this too far, once a hated person get so lucky they will start to question themselves, because the feel they are better than the person they hate, and they will end up putting themselves in an uncomfortable situation, could go very bad or very good especially with gambling.

---

In this world most things won't go as planned, heaven has its way with everybody, and even if we are answering the same name our fate won't be the same, others are lucky doesn't mean you should too, the day a soul realizes that he or she is different from others is the day they will start seeing things differently.

Yes, that will looks easy to win Crash but the reality is not. Playing Crash needs luck and control yourself to take profit. Many times peole lose control because they are greedy to chase more winning and forget that Crash can make you lose.

I don't feel the pressure as that is not my business but if you feel the pressure, you can tell to them what you know. You can explain that the casino they use is suspicious and known as a scam casino. That can alarm them and trying to stay away from the casino. At least, you help them by not using the casino but if they still want to use that, that will not your concern.

There is no pressue with that if you just mind your own business. If you know more and better than of those people that are discussing their tremendous gains, you know wha to do. There's no need to stress yourself out from those people when you know what's the reality and if they're gambling with a platform that you know is shady at all. Don't meddle into their thing or if you want to, you can enter into their discussion by asking them if you can to.

I am not jealous or whatnot with people winning big amounts upon overhearing it. There's no need for me to get into that and will just quietly be happy about them. But if there's an urge and you want to talk about them and join their conversation, it's up to you on how you're going to introduce it. Otherwise, it's best to just take a sip of your coffee while reading people's reply in the forum or whatever you are reading or simply enjoy the moment you have.

Crash is a type of casino game which means that as we know that casino games are mostly designed to benefit the dealer, the percentage is 70 - 30 which means your chances of winning are 30% so that's why gamblers lose more than they win regardless of the type of game they play. As you said that gamblers are often trapped in greed or various impulsive actions because they can't control themselves and their emotions, and maybe I would say that they are gamblers who don't know about how online casinos work, so know and understand first about what and how the activity you are facing is.

On the other hand, for novice gamblers, I think they still find it quite difficult to distinguish between which casinos are proven to be safe and which casinos have the potential to commit fraud, and when you are in the same environment but you have a little more knowledge about it, then of course it doesn't hurt to tell them at least about the characteristics of casinos that have the potential to commit fraud from your experience, I would definitely do the same when I was in that position.

Nothing destroys a gambler's wealth like when he or she thinks that they can be like their friend who wins big from gambling. Many people have lost a fortune from gambling all in the name of wanting to win big like their friend and not quit gambling until they win a huge amount of money to cover their losses from gambling.

However, this mentality of winning big like others, most gamblers are beginning to see it as the common thing they can actualize someday. Whereby they forget that gambling doesn't work that way. It favors someone you know doesn't mean it will favor you also. Our luck differs, so it's our destiny. Someone shouldn't just feel bittered or worry that they didn't win big like their friend; rather, they should smile it off and gamble for fun as they ought to.

It’s pretty unfortunate, but it’s common for us to think that if a friend or a relative wins, we can win too. I don’t see anything wrong with that, but we can’t say we’re unlucky if we don’t even try. Honestly, beliefs like these are a test for us—who knows, we might just get lucky and strike it rich! That’s why we can’t really blame others for thinking the same way; they just want to find out if luck is real for them. Because let’s be real—if there’s no luck in it for them, they’d probably quit gambling sooner or later.

So, while it’s important not to be afraid to take a chance, we should also accept the fact that not everyone’s going to get lucky.

Not only with crash type games, but I think all the games provided by the dealer have the same percentage, which is as you said with 70 - 30. Although there are some games that do require players to have skills, it can be said that it is a way to increase the chances of winning, but it will not give players a greater advantage, the dealer's advantage will still be greater even though the player has good skills in one of the gambling.
I myself often visit local online casinos and I sometimes feel hesitant when I am going to gamble at the online casino that I visit by looking at its appearance, but of the many online casinos that I have visited, I have never been cheated, but to experience problems such as pending withdrawals or deposit processes often occur. I can't tell clearly which local online casinos are safe and which have the potential for fraud.

Or maybe not. Maybe they will keep playing which is when it becomes problematic.

I mean even the smartest people would not close the door if luck came knocking. We should know that money does not come out of thin air and instead comes from hard work and perseverance . But if luck decided to bless us then why would we say no?

Getting lucky and forcing luck to go your way are two different things. Once you know that you’re not going to be winning any time soon, just stop before you lose any more money

But the chance will decrease following with the situation where we playing gambling and not have a big chance to win. As long as we know when we must stop playing gambling, we will not lose too much. And if we can win, we must stop playing gambling immediately to avoid the next losses. I admitted that greediness will always be there but we can prevent that greediness becomes bigger by always control ourselves.

If novice gamblers can be careful selecting the casino, they will not get in a scam. They need to research to find the reputable casino that will not commit fraud and this forum provide many good and reputable casinos. If they can read many information from member's experienced in this forum, they will know how to avoids the scam casinos.

Yes, it means the key is self-control and limits, these are two things that can be said to be the key to long-term safety regardless of what type of gambling you visit, we must remember and understand that victory is nothing more than a chance and on the other hand the possibility of defeat will always be part of the game, meaning your intelligence in treating gambling is tested, such as stopping when you have managed to achieve a number of wins and securing that amount to enjoy, or stopping when you have experienced one defeat and continuing it at another time.

On the other hand, that is the advantage of this forum, maybe I can say that by being in this forum, at least we can know about the signs of a good casino to choose or which casinos should be avoided, this knowledge can also be spread to people closest to you who do not join here, at least to minimize the possibility of fraud, and so far Stake.com is still one of my favorites.

I can say that big wins never triggered me to run to offline casino and start gambling, or immediately open casino on a mobile and start gambling. Shoulnd big wins means that jackpot or any other major prize is already won and other gamblers have already missed their chance? That would be logical, as big wins dont come one after another.

But there is other thing about gambling and prizes. Whenever I am with family in amusement park and see someone wins a toy in claw machine for example, a temptation to get same prize appears almost immediately.

I have also succumbed to this several times, seeing the victories of my friends. But if you ask how long they waited for their win, then most likely their wins will not be big, considering how much money they spent before. I have seen gamblers for whom winning is important as a fact and not as a result in a financial sense. It is also difficult to compare their amount of effort with those people who play from time to time without attaching much importance to the results obtained during the game.

There are somethings I learnt about gambling which is never to use what you can't afford to lose to gamble and no much emotion should attached because if I say don't attach emotions, it is almost impossible for a real gambler not to attach emeotions in his gamble.
People are likely to be moved with what they hear or see as the case may be but sometimes what we see may not be practical when we eventually involve ourselves in it, to me I know that losing is part of gambling and there is nothing anyone will say to convince me to gamble with what I can't afford to lose no matter how real or enticing a gambling story looks like, I think is high time we start seeing gambling as it is, in every gambling session two things are likely to happen, is either you lose or you win and among the two event that may occur, the one that has a high tendency of occuring is loss, though am not against gambling because i gamble too but we shouldn't see all the story of how fortunate some people has been in gambling as truth because I come to understand that promotion are done everywhere since we don't even know who is who again.

That's the point, they will definetely use does scam casinos to give their examples and don't fall for it because if you do, it will be a disastrous one as that, no matter how tempting it seems to be, I don't think is worth anyone wasting their money for, personally I bet on sportsbet and I have some gambling sites I bet with, so as it stands no one can deceive me even though they do I won't use morethan what I can afford to lose and that has has been my stand.

I can get tempted to gamble when I hear stories about big wins, but I always control myself not to gamble if I didn't plan for it. I don't just gamble on the spur of the moment, I've disciplined myself to only gamble on the day that I planned for it. It's a strategy that I use so that I'll not be a serious gambler, although I can sometimes break the rule but the point is that I don't just gamble because I've heard about a huge win. I've studied how gambling works and I know that winning is by luck, so I try not to be moved because I heard about a win, it could be the person's lucky day.

If you are a type of person who do really that easily get hooked up or being hyped with gambling wins by other people then this do really shows that you are really that having that
some gambling urge on which it could really be leading up to addiction later on. If you wont really be that careful then it might really be that causing up for you to end up on a disaster.
Temptation and urge will really be just that basing up on how good you are on controlling it on the moment that you do encounter those huge wins and sees up on other gamblers.
There would really be that kind of jealousy deep inside because you do want on being a winner too but there would really those people who are good on self control.

Self control is what is required for us not to be too urged when we see big winnings like this. Every gambler always anticipate for bigger wins and whenever this is heard from people around it friends, it can trigger our interest to bet more so that we can earn similar winnings. If we are not disciplined, we can because of other people's big wins go and look for more especially when we don't have enough funds to gamble so we can as well have similar results. It takes serious and experience gambler to over look this kind of scenario because they have passed through this stage where little winnings from others increase their urge to keep betting.

This i true, gambling, winning is mostly by luck we only bring in strategies to further increase our chances of winning and not just that we are sure we are going to win based off our strategy but importantly we can still apply some restraint as you do so we don't get addicted which is one of the most dangerous points of gambling which almost no gambler should get to as it's so damaging and can cause a whole lot of harm than good.

I see people who gets triggered by someone's big win as dumb and jealous people, because they fail to understand that your luck and that person's luck is different and we are humans with different faces, which means that what worked for me might not work you. This is the reason why all fingers are not equal. It is a norm that gamblers can start a session when they hear someone just win big, which is one of the reason why people easily get carried away and fall for those influencers who deceives them on social media that it is easy to make profit from gambling.

Sometimes after you must have dropped gambling for awhile and then you hear about how someone got a hug wins during gambling you'll be ignited and want to give a try again, this scenario happens to alot of person even myself and you'll definitely will be like if the person won this I can do it as well since the person doesn't have two brains. So it's very tempting and will possibly lure the gambler especially the one that has been addicted to go back doing that same thing.

So funny but it’s really a serious matter, we get tempted easily just by hearing about other people’s wins. Gambling is very tempting and the risk is very high to make such amount of money, it takes a very disciplined mind to withstand the temptation and it even gets worse when we hear someone talking about how they recently won a huge amount from betting you will feel motivated to bet despite knowing that to win such amount is almost impossible and most of them have been betting their whole life to win such amount.

people shouldn’t fall for such statements some people might just be trying to lure you into in their scam casino in order to scam you. We should always be vigilant not to fall for such scams and always use reputable casino to gamble.

That is how casinos get to win a lot of clients, if every single person that visited a casino lost, the a casino will go bankrupt not soon after opening their doors, however every single night there are several people that get some nice profits out of the casino, share their story and this motivates other people that may have never thought about gambling before to do so, generating more revenue, bringing more clients to the casino and sustaining their business model in a way that it will not be possible otherwise.

Your subject wasn't what I expected in the content. What I was thinking is the usual display of winning ticket of casino games by some influencers making you want to bet. I have couple of guys that are very good at winning casino and are very influential, they literally post every games they play and show their winnings later and this makes me wish I had played the game and makes me want to play the next game they posted but when the time comes, I just change my mind.

If the people involved in those casino are people you know, why not share your red flags with them, you will be doing them good by telling them to avoid the casino instead of putting all energy and money there that will probably end in cry and regrate. Tell them the truth that you know even if they don't want to listen, if it it's true later, you conscience will be clear and if you are wrong, nothing spoil it's because you care that's why you warned them.

When a gambler hears such a discussion from a distance, he himself is encouraged. He was then inspired to take up gambling. This happens almost exclusively among gamblers. There are some gamblers who try their best to get 100x or bigger returns from gambling in their meditation knowledge. But the results are not always in their favor. Perhaps for some reason he is temporarily away from gambling, but when he hears the story of someone winning in his own ears, the hope of winning comes again in him. I think a gambler should keep gambling under control. Because if you gamble after hearing about winning, the chances of losing will increase. Not everyone has the same luck in gambling, so claiming to be lucky if someone is lucky it would be a mistake.

As a responsible gambler there are obviously a couple of things you should try as much as possible to avoid. And one of them is comparing your gambling activities with other people especially in terms of how much you stake. Every gambler has a distinct bankroll and that is also used as a fail safe measurement to actually know how much you are staking.

For example a guy staking around $1500 weekly could very well be ok and rational depending on his bankroll. How ever someone staking around $200 a week could be staking way above his means and this is the more reason comparison really doesn't help.

We should be accountable for our actions and not blame the casino for using marketing tricks on us because if we don't allow the trick to work, it won't work despite how many times they try to convince us to gamble. All business have their marketing tricks that they use to get more customers. Casinos are business and you shouldn't expect them to not try to get more customers by being clever. When we feel the urge to gamble because we saw others become so victorious, we should take a step back and think again and always remember that when one gambler becomes successful with a style of gambling or any strategy that they use, it doesn't give a certainty that anyone that use that same gambling method is going to become successful too. If the same gambler repeat the same strategy, they still mightn't win again hence we shouldn't be concerned about when others are winning.

Quite ironic you talk about it, because there are several casinos and bookies which like to show the bets and wager of the high-rollers in the front page of their websites.
One must wonder whether it is some kind of strategy by those behind the marketing and PR department of the company to incite newcomers to try to wager as close was possible to them (even if they are not in the same league of those high-rollers).
Anyways, I think they advice you are giving out it is quite good and something all newcomer into the gambling world should keep in mind if they do not want to end up penniless and chasing for past losses.

It is not a coincidence it is possible to filter the highest rollers of the casino but it is not possible to do the same with the tiny rollers, there is definitely some psychological element going on in the background.

It is not simply just win hahah I also hear that heck I even saw lately on my page in youtube Instagram and tiktok when people is winning so easily just in couple of minute. Temptation: The Urge to Gamble When Hearing About Big Wins and yeah I also know this feeling especially after watch those guys win big.


I also curious what the casino that raising so much red flag lately can you DM me Im just really curious about it haha.

Yes, it seems that I can justify your opinion that when you are a gambler and you hear discussions that you hear from other people around you who talk about winning, then yes, it can encourage you a little to also try it, the point is when you are a gambler, especially when you are a gambler who is already addicted consciously or not, when you hear or see anything that smells of gambling such as hearing other people's discussions, seeing other people who are gambling or seeing gambling broadcasts carried out by streamers, then it will be able to encourage you to try it because of curiosity in your mind.

On the other hand, this is also one of the things that hinders the process of someone's recovery from addiction or makes addiction more difficult to overcome, therefore in some of my ideas on other topics about addiction I always say that if you really want to recover from gambling then the main step that is no less important is to eliminate all access that can connect you to gambling, not only delete your local bank account but also change or limit your association with the gambling environment, try not to see or hear anything that can remind you of gambling, I have experienced it.

Indeed, basically we ourselves must be responsible for our own actions such as with the gambling that we do ourselves, many cases of losses or bankruptcy of someone due to gambling are due to their own actions which are too ambitious to get victory in gambling even though victory in gambling is not certain but they force themselves to get it and clearly it makes them lose a lot of money because there is no certainty that victory will be easily obtained. In addition, it is also unethical to blame the casino for what happened because the casino only does the best for its business and this is a natural thing because all companies will definitely do their best for the development of their business and they will not force their customers to do it excessively. We know that victory in gambling is based on our respective luck, if indeed our friends win in gambling while we do not, then what must be done is to be aware of the different luck, not to be jealous until we continue to gamble because we want to get the same or even greater victory.

Self control is something that can prevent you from the urge to gamble especially when you already win. You will know that you don't have to keep playing gambling and decide to save your win money by quitting gambling. You will not see the chance the next winning from gambling while you have a chance to enjoy the win money. When we already win, we must not lets gambling tempt us to gambling for more but we must look that as a way to withdraw the win money for ourselves.

Choosing the right casino is a must to prevent a problem and we can choose that from this casino. We have many casinos in this forum so we can choose one or more to use to playing gambling.

Truth to be told I'm not from the class of those who are in competition with other  gamblers. Should I hear from someone that he got 100x returns from gambling I would congratulate and appraise him  but wouldn't  succumb to the temptation of the immediate gamble. I feel more comfortable to proceed   when desire for gambling comes from inside of me.

That's a very good tip. Don't compare yourselves with other gamblers who might be gambling all of their lives and are very well off and able to spend that much, win or lose.

Don't be triggered about hearing those massive wins because not all talks are real talks and just some words that they want to boast from their peers.

So, if ever someone out there is a real gambler with massive gains, I am sure that they won't let anyone know but just few of their friends so that they won't be thought as flexing their gains and they remains so very low profile.

Good for you, you have that control, however, for those who don't, and then when they hear stories from friends or from watching streamers taking big win in slots for example, who knows what's going on their mind maybe they are going to succumb on those kind of temptation and then proceed to copy what they have seen.

And then they losses that kind, ouch, that is going to be a big mental loss too as it's been very hard to feel that losses specially big money or if you have no control already of yourself and gamble money that you can't afford to lose.

I can confirm that 1xBet and 1xBit are connected. I was working in Evolution and we had 1xbet and 1xbit tables next to each other and I also know details about the deal but I'm not going to write details here. By the way, there is a difference between 1xBet and 1xBit. 1xBit is a scam casino and so was 1xBet but I think that 1xBet changed their strategy a few years ago. They opened so many tables in Evolution studio and have so many customers every day playing blackjack and roulette on their website, I think that they aren't scammers anymore but 1xBit is still a scam.

This can also be a trigger to repentant gamblers... it's possible that they might be clean for weeks and after hearing about someone that hit a big win they might be tempted to go back into it. Gambling is a game of luck, just because someone wins a huge amount doesn't mean you are also going to win that same amount, trying to get the same results as others can make you have an obsessive addiction o over the game...As a gambler that's trying to quit don't let other people's wins trigger the urge to gamble because it's possible that you might not be so lucky.

The best way to gamble is not by expecting anything from it, because if we do expect something from it we might not be opportuned to achieve it. However, what you said is actually the truth on what can trigger a repentant gambler, it has happened to me, when I tried to take a brake on gamble for while, I stayed for 3 weeks or a month without gambling but when my colleague won a decent amount from his bet, and he told us how he won the bet with his prediction. So I retuned to gamble, but I risk what I can afford to lose.

There are two different types of people on the moment that they do win up something big on which there would be those people or types that they do really want to flex or boast up their winnings publicly which dont care whether their friends or the public would really be able to see their winnings. They would really be that proud of on what they do have get or won atm. It will really be giving out that kind of feeling on which they will really be having those thoughts that it will really be something that proves out that they are lucky. For those people who do able to see around then it would really be that up to them whether they will really be having such
 kind of boost up of emotions on trying out to achieve on what those other gamblers been able to achieved?

On the time that you cant be able to control your emotions then you will really be that most likely be ending up on having such problem on where you would really be assuming that you could be able to get or experience
on the same situation or scenario into that someone whom you do able to look upon. If you wont really be that careful about your emotions and mindset then likely you will really be that desperately be doing gambling like a mad man on which you will really be having those assumptions that you could be able to win up on the same thing or situation.

That is why it's important for people to develop critical thinking and a solid autonomous personality, so they will be less influenced and persuaded by others, especially the so called social influencers who earn money to lead the masses into the abyss. If people aren't fooled easily, they won't feel tempted to gamble when hearing news about big wins, because they will know it's just a propaganda or that it's a very unlikely event to happen often.

News about big wins play with the fantasy and imaginary of the public. They don't think realistically about what is being presented to them, and that is the main mistake, because it leads to loss of contact with reality and potential harmful outcomes which can mean a nasty financial setback on their lives.

Are you trying to say that since you started gambling you have not broken any of your gambling rules starting from the first one down to the very last one?
 
If yes, then lucky for you as making gambling plans is easier said than keeping it, which is why most people keep on running to their bank account to fund their gambling account more or their wallet.

How good to be true it usually looks like, but difficult to achieve. Gambling should be done without emotional attachment. The reason we often have issues in betting is the fact that we overly attach emotions to gambling. The moment we stay clear from exaggeration of life fulfilment through gambling the batter for us. Hence this particular reason is what kept many people into addiction. Seing gambling as a way of quick wealth or a get rich quick scheme and we later empty our account chasing the unknown.

Truth, self-control, emotional control, is primary important thing for everyone, especially concerning in gambling.
Well, related to the case, Rewards in gambling, which are in the form of profits, are the primary reason someone gambles. Apart from the fun, the rewards in the game are very interesting and tempting to try.

as explained here:
Source: Motivations to gamble (https://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/statistics-and-research/publication/understanding-why-people-gamble-and-typologies)

But unfortunately, gamblers unknowingly only see the rewards in other people, without knowing what they have gone through. Have you ever heard a gambler say:
"I won $ 1000 tonight, but actually I have lost $ 10000 previously."

This is what often happens, and when they just follow suit in gambling, the rewards that their friends get become something they imagine they will get one day. However, they cannot focus on the money they have spent. That is the danger.

I don't feel like being pressed, but I do hope I'll be winning same with others winning thar huge amount of moeny from gambling. Urging ourselves is not a good mindset, but what hinders us from playing same with other people is due to money to invest with. You need to gamble a lot of funds before you'll able to win such amount of money. Just like other players did, they'll always go to casino or access lots of gambling site in order to fulfill their desires and winning expectations.

Man's want is insatiable... They'll never be a time that someone would pass by such conversations without creating impossible assumptions and instances in their minds. I'd also wish it was me because, why not? let's assume that 100x equals a 100 grand... That's enough to explore a new phase of life even in the US as only 34% of people earn above that. So, if this happens atleast twice in a year, that's already alot of income to live comfortably....
Now, you see where our thought leads us to? Ignoring the fact that we have to fund our accounts for every ticket that rolls off, meanwhile the chances of hitting that multiplier is so low...
What works for me mustn't necessarily work for you.. moreso, i wouldn't get my informations on a shady site, talk more of funding an account...

We know that winning is what everyone who gambles wants, whether they gamble for fun or just to fill their free time. Everyone who gambles definitely wants to be able to win a large amount, besides that, many people gamble with the intention and purpose of wanting to double their money with a small capital and wanting to be able to win big, but we must be aware that winning in gambling is not easy to get. The statement about having to risk a lot of money to get a big win is not certain, the size of the funds wagered will not guarantee that we can get a big win because winning in gambling is based on our own luck. I'm sure out there there are people who can get big wins with the funds allocated that are low and vice versa.

Such psychological patterns are typical not only for casino games. And for sports betting too, and even for trading too. We know that, for example, in the crypto market, the bulk of inexperienced players come only after being impressed by the big wins of their friends or acquaintances. As soon as a large mass of inexperienced and non-professional participants comes to the market, crypto whales begin to unload their positions on them. Approximately the same thing happens in casinos. Big wins are relatively rare in casinos. But when they do happen, then the casino tries to advertise it in every possible way. People have a cognitive distortion - what attracts their attention seems to them to be an event that occurs more often.

If they only see the rewards in other people without thinks that they can not gets the same thing as them, he will only keep trying to playing gambling without stop. Their losses will be bigger than those people because they will urge to keep playing gambling and win more money. I think I already heard that from my friends where he lost huge money in a night ;D

They must realize that gambling is not a source of income which they can get the money after they playing gambling. They can lose their money anytime without any return from gambling. Besides that, they can frustrate because of the lose of the money. If they can not realize this, they will only gets deeper in gambling without seeing a way to get out from gambling.

Such desire is natural but the feeling that gives pressure to try can be greater and in the end can follow the heart and mind that are carried away by the atmosphere to try it continuously but all of that does not give the expected results and this is reality that you cannot avoid.
What is worse is the courage to increase the money quota in gambling, either by borrowing money or using the remaining savings which clearly there will always be other efforts to get it and things like this we must often find or experience ourselves.

I'm not 100% rigid in being disciplined in my gambling habit, sometimes I allow myself to fall for the temptation to gamble a bit with my wins. In my post that you quote I emphasized that "although I can sometimes break the rule", but it's very rare, besides I gamble only a few times in a week. It's very important that gamblers learns to be disciplined so that they can control their gambling habits. The goal is to avoid being addicted to gambling, so that they will gamble responsibly, without being disciplined, it's easy to get carried away and fall for the temptation to over gamble.

Rumors of impressive wins spread at the speed of light and this undoubtedly excites the minds of gamblers, and also spurs them to challenge the casino with an internal emotional response "I can do it too". But the problem is that in this gambling system it is impossible for everyone to win. In gambling, it is very important to maintain a sober mind and suppress emotions, including when you learn about such large wins. You should not recklessly and headlong try to repeat the success of these lucky ones, but continue to adhere to your gaming strategy and style of play.

Also, don't forget that you most often don't hear rumors about large (and not only) losses, because gamblers try to keep silent about this, because it is a manifestation of losing. Although such stories undoubtedly exist more.

Basically having a more prevention-focused approach will always be the best approach to gambling, as you do by focusing on discipline even though sometimes you occasionally break the rules you have made but that is something that is natural for a social creature to do and from what I read above I think you have a good mindset and perspective on gambling in the sense of realizing that gambling can be very risky and destroy most of your life when you do it without a plan that leads to prevention.

That's good my friend because only in that way will we be a little more protected from addiction, limiting the amount of budget, time of involvement and expectations of victory is the best.

Yes, that is the use or function of self-control, which in addition to preventing you from the possibility of greed, can also prevent you from significant regret and also give you the opportunity to enjoy money from winning when at that time you managed to achieve a number of wins.
On the other hand, we must remember that different times will also have different results, or what is meant is even though for example now you have managed to win, it does not mean that victory will come again when you choose to continue the game because of the urge of greed.

Another thing related to choosing the right casino, of course, it should be done if you have the ability to distinguish between which casinos are safe and which casinos have the potential to commit fraud, meaning that we are advised not only to focus on various preventive measures but also to pay attention to various other things that can also cause problems.

It's true that rumors of impressive wins spread at the speed of light, but rumors of colossal defeats stay hidden under the bed. A few days ago, a friend of mine won approximately €250 through sports betting, on football matches, if I remember correctly. I was quite intrigued, to say the least, as the amounts I'm winning are usually below €100, depending on the match and how much I'm betting, but no one, including my friend, discloses how much they've lost. After discussing it for a while, he revealed that he has lost over €200 the past two weeks, so this win was a blessing, as he managed to recoup his losses and achieve a minor return, provided that he didn't bet the other €50 already. 

The amount staked on a bet in gambling does not guarantee that a gambler will win the bet. Someone might stake high in a bet with low odds and still lose the game, another might stake low and win the game. The odds of winning are based on how lucky we are in the bet. If we are lucky enough to win when we stake a huge amount, of course, our winning will be huge and the same goes for when we stake low, the winning will cannot be compared to when you staked high.

Of a truth, no one wants to lose even when we say we are gambling for fun. The exciting part of gambling for fun and gambling for profit is when we are winning. Those gambling for fun tend to be more careful when they are gambling.

Indeed, there's no serious arguments against putting big risk is an assurance but that's what I've observed from random strangers I've known from different places. They're really exerting a lot of efforts just get that big catch of winning, eventually they'll taking successful bets and sometimes a failure. The more chances of winning depends on how a gambler managed his funds during the game regardless of how high is their potential of winning.

In my opinion, small winnings can interest only a few people. Most people receive wages for hired labor, sometimes they also receive bonuses for production results. Small winnings - this can impress few people.

Another thing is when people read in the media that someone won in a game of chance and instantly improved his quality of life - bought an expensive car, a large apartment or went with his family to a fashionable resort. Such information boggles the imagination. Many fairy tales that children read in childhood tell about quick enrichment, because such stories evoke very strong emotions.

So, yes, when people hear about big wins, their willingness to take risks increases (in order to hit the jackpot in the long run).

It's envy.
We envy those who claim big prizes and so an emotion will be switched on that we also want the same thing to happen to us. This is why the online gambling business has been a successful one, especially for those who have many gamblers sharing their experiences and winnings on social media.
Little did we know, a lot of them are planted by most gambling sites so that it can urge more people to play but when you are in it, it's hard to win such a thing, it's very rare to hit a multiplier that you can tell yourself you can go out and enjoy it. Most of the time, it's just small wins that won't even matter if we withdraw so we gamble more and try again and it becomes a never-ending cycle.

We are just humans and we are really that emotional beings on which there's always that chance or possibility that envy could really be felt out on the moment that we are seeing someone whose really that winning big. There are people who do really that become impulsive on the time or moment that they will really be seeing someone whose really that racking up with some profits on dealing up with gambling. Of course you will really be trying out to make yourself as a winner too on which you would be also trying out to mimic on the things that they've been doing on which this is really that very wrong.
People would be only realizing on the things that they've done on the moment that they will really be experiencing some non good situations or simply on losing moment or time.
Dont make yourself get desperate then you would really be just that fine.

For sure staking with huge amount of money does not guarantee winning but it is wise to reduce the risk of losing with a lot of accumulations and staking with low amounts. I have staked different slip of bets with the belief that one of them will be a won ticket but i ended up losing all whereas i have used the amount that i used in staking those different bets to stake on a single event and i won it even though the winning wasn't huge. We should take gambling more like a business where even if you are able to win X2 of your wager amount you should be comfortable with it instead of staking to win huge and losing all the time. Winning huge with a little wager amount is more dependent on luck than someone who staked huge to also win huge, the options you will select for events will be less riskier.

There's different between someone gambling for fun and someone who gambles for profit because the one who gambles for fun is not worried over lost bets but for someone who gambles for profit, they becomes sad and unhappy when they lose.

For a gambler to not be worried when he loses, he might continue to gamble and keep losing all his money. Despite what you're gambling for, you still need to be mindful of how you lose money or you'll go broke. Gambling for fun should have its limits and you'll have to quit when you're exceeding your limit. You can't say you're having fun when you're losing money that could've been used for other valuable things that'll increase your lifestyle. The difference between those gambling for fun and those gambling for profits is that the profit seekers are always after the victory which they still don't get and then they become frustrated that they might begin to gamble in an irresponsible way that turn out to be harmful to them because they get addiction and other problems from that one decision that they took. We should be mindful of how we gamble inspite of why we decided to gamble.

A responsible gambler would know that setting aside a decent amount that will be used for gamble is a good method of gambling. No matter the kind of joy we get while gambling we still need to be conscious the kind of amount we use for gambling. However, even though the gambler is the kind of person that always win, he still need to set aside a resealable amount that he will use for gambling so that anytime he loses, he will not lose all the money that it in his bank account. One other important thing a gambler need to know is that staying longer in the casino house will make him lose more money.

That's one good way to address your gambling habit, because if you will stick to the allocated budget and stop once it is busted, you won't have financial problems. Would be hard to beat temptations but if you will consistently use only your spare funds, you won't be in a tight position.
The dilemma of most gamblers is how to stop when you are already on the losing side. Most will continue even if they are beyond their budget as the mere thought of recovering those lost funds is always here. However, you need to be strict with yourself. Otherwise, you will be in deep trouble afterwards.

That's why we said in life, everything is gamble. Other win big, maybe getting a car or a house. And so when we here it, maybe some of us would be envy of that person specially if we know him well throughout his life.

Similar in gambling stories that he heard, we can only wish that we are that person who won the lottery or the jackpot. With that, we will go and say to our selves that we will be the next millionaire. However, each of us are very different, our luck is not the same as the person who have won that lottery.

That is his statement and it is quite sad because the amount of effort they put in tends not to get them what they want, what happens is the opposite of what they want is a reality that often occurs. Sadly, there are still many people who gamble with the wrong assumption that they think they can get a big win easily and will make a good career, even though that is just the first door to their suffering.
With no clear certainty of being able to win, this should be one of the things that must be realized, even though we see our friends get a big win and hear, see, and maybe even feel the victory they get because they are treated to a drink by a friend who wins, but don't let us get carried away if we can also get what our friends get, because luck no one knows when it will happen, while winning in gambling tends to depend on our luck.

Sadly there is nothing for anyone to do to ensure that they will by gambling because most games in gambling are not skill based not even knowledge based. All you need is a lot of luck and it’s  not something you can acquire by force.

Maybe if we were talking about a specific profession or investment project then we can apply the mindset of “if he can do it, then so can i” but in gambling? Forget about it. It doesn’t work like that.

Self control surely help you from anything bad that already happened to many gamblers. You won't that bad experience because you know how to avoid it so gambling will not be bad for you. There will be no urge to keep playing gambling especially for chase the win because you know that will not be easy for you or anyone. So you just playing gambling and enjoy your moment in gambling.

You can choose the right casino for you and avoids the casino that looks suspicious because you can learn from other people experience. It is better we prevent than have the problem because that will be difficult to solve. And when someone win from gambling, you will not trigger to try playing gambling using more money because you will reminds that playing gambling needs luck to win.

Well, the possibility of a big win is what usually attracts us to bet. It's like the EuroMillions lottery, the possibility of winning tens or even hundreds of millions if there's a jackpot is what makes you buy tickets, even if the objective probability of winning is very close to 0. What you have to be aware of is how unlikely it is that you will win a lot in relation to what you bet, and not compulsively spend your month's salary because you hear that someone else has won a good amount.

The worst mistake you would make as a gambler is to have inspiration from a blockbuster win you heard about and start gambling more with the intention of winning like the other person. You are heading straight to addiction and the possibility of the negative consequences are high. Also people share their success stories and never their failures, so before you believe that the person is so lucky, try she hear the ugly side off his journey to accertain if you can also beat possibly going through that dark part or even worse case scenario.

All that glitters are not good and most especially in gambling, there is more possibility of recording loses than gaining, so we must be careful of the kind of motivation we welcome in our gambling life.

Yes, that's right, the simple meaning is that no one will ever be interested in getting involved in gambling if there is no money behind it as a reward, especially if the amount of winnings is very large, and as you said that's what makes people interested in gambling.
On the other hand, as you said, what gamblers should be aware of is how small the chances of winning are, many people gamble at the same time to get the big jackpot provided by the casino and of course the chances are very small to be the only one or one of the gamblers who managed to get the jackpot unless you are really lucky, but unfortunately usually gamblers always feel that they are one of the lucky ones out of 100 gamblers who play at the same time, that's the disease.

There's a limitation on how we should be proud to our wins. It's understandable if someone speaks out loud in the public with the friends because it's probably that's just how natural the tone of their voice.

But if it's too much and you don't want to engage with any conversation to them, it's best to just go away and avoid them.

And never be too jealous to their talks if you've got your own successful bets. Your time will come at the right time and forum where you can discuss and talk about it freely with whoever you're right.

Yeah, the big winning opportunities given by the gambling platform to the gamblers are what often makes more people interested in gambling there, even though the chances of winning are usually lower than usual, but that doesn't matter to them, because it's like a hope for them to try to get something that can change their lives. and even though they are likely to lose, it doesn't matter because at least they have tried and if they are lucky they can win big.

One of the reasons why people are so attracted to gambling is because of the big winning opportunities provided by the casino, sometimes there are always some of them who really bet large amounts of money or the last money they have, even though it is clear that the chances of winning are quite small which means the possibility of experiencing defeat is much greater.

Actually there is nothing wrong with gambling because in any case the bad impact of gambling depends on how a gambler treats his gambling activity, in the sense that if they bet with an amount they can afford to lose then the bad impact will not befall them, but unfortunately only a small part of the gamblers think in that direction, most of them always act excessively and recklessly in making decisions.

Another thing is that it is okay to be attracted to the big winning opportunities provided by the casino as long as you really understand and are aware of the risks so that significant regret does not befall you.

True, many people also know everything behind the scenes of how gambling works, the chances of winning in the lottery, and the risk involved in spending your own money. The possibility of a big win is usually what attracts us to bet.
It’s more natural to feel excited when you hear about someone won a big jackpot or see others hit it big in lucky games, slots or table, and it’s even a part of why lotteries and high stakes games are so tempting to play. But it’s important to remember that those big winners are very rare and a tight chance , and the odds are stacked against us.

While betting for fun with limits in place, and viewing any opportunity to win as a bonus rather than a necessity, keeps the experience enjoyable and under control.Chasing the money you have lost is not an act of responsibility, it’s important to know that this activity is risky if you don’t understand it.

Hearing someone can win a large amount of money from gambling does sometimes arouse the desire for other gamblers to do the same thing and they think they will get lucky like the person in the story but the percentage of winning from gambling is very small and uncertain if we gamble with such encouragement of course it is not good and will cause anxiety when we fail to win the gambling that we initially hoped for instead losing money that you yourself are not willing to lose it is important not to be easily tempted by other people's wins because each person has a different fate of luck.

There used to be a popular one here a year or two years ago. I guess we are talking about the same site. Anyway, that's how most casinos and betting sites are built – just to scam most gamblers. They allow a few win so they can get that euphoria out there and get many more hooked on it. People don't as fast as share their loses as they would do their wins. It's the few wins out there which are often exaggerated that end up convincing others and more victims fall in.

This is something very natural that we can feel when we hear someone has won a large amount. The urge will always be there and we may even be curious about what game they are playing and start thinking about playing the same game. Sometimes we forget for a moment that our luck and those who win big are different.
But when I started to realize that different luck, it could suppress the desire to play when I saw other people win big. Especially if we no longer have a budget that we can use for gambling. Because when we follow that desire, we may not be ready to lose money.

The mechanism of gambling is to build a golden city in the subconscious of those who come here, just by visiting this city, considering the values ​​that this city provides, visitors will constantly urge themselves to invest here to receive an additional part of the benefits but on closer inspection it is a temptation, a trap, spreading exaggerated rumors, throwing out great victories as well as legends of achievements, thousands of people do not think much to join in to become a gold digger king, looking for a vacant position to dig and the quicksand will bury them

This is you being you, thinking about the possibilities of winning and that of losing, calculating the chances, and knowing fully well that it's based on luck to win the jackpot, and our luck defers, but someone somewhere is still very intriguing: if the last person was able to win the jackpot while can't they, must they be the shortest finger among others? Until some gamblers develop that knowledge of knowing that gambling results are not in their position to control, a lot will be hit by great disappointment.

The feeling is real, I myself have experienced it when I gambled with friends together but the results that each of us got were different, with me failing to win while my friend managed to win even a big win that he got, it made me jealous but fortunately I could still control myself well. I can't imagine if my self-control was lost, maybe what would happen is that I would continue to gamble without thinking about the money I lost.

You are right, we should not be easily influenced by the wins that other people get because it is possible that it will only make us continue to gamble. We should be aware of being able to gamble well and be aware that winning depends on each person's luck, maybe today is not our lucky day but another time maybe luck will be on our side.

In recent years, especially when I saw big winners in slot games, my desire to gamble increased. I was particularly intrigued by the replay videos of Pragmatic Games. After a while, I realized that even if I didn't gamble, I was spending a lot of time watching streamers gamble on Kick, and I started to question myself. Now, I only focus on sports betting. Slot games are really fun, but for someone like me who struggles with self-control, they can be very risky.

Alot time it's always as this having dropped a particular act and boom out of pressure and much energy from people your surrounded with you end up finding yourself doing that same thing you've definitely Zeroed your mind not to. Well it's great that you had a win after all but it's best to keep up to your decisions inorder not to have regrets later on. Just like dropping smoking and then finding yourself around friends that does it and you had to join in again it's really disheartening tho standing on one's decisions it's quite a huge task but it ought to be.

People will always be surrounded by temptations and it is really hard to resist them, but to give in to the feeling of fear of missing out on something interesting just because someone nearby won a big win is not very rational. Every minute someone wins at gambling, but that doesn't mean you should put all your money on the line. Greed is what often gets us into trouble, so there is no point in chasing the winnings. During such a chase, more often than not, people spend all their money.

Well you have a good idea by realizing that you have a problem in terms of self-control so you prefer to get involved in sports betting types than casino games, I think that is the best decision you can make, because after all even though slots look very fun but it will only be fun when you are in a winning situation, the only problem is that casino games have a much greater risk, sometimes even though you have pretty good self-control but still the number of losses usually exceeds the number of wins you managed to get.

Maybe people especially those in this forum can use your actions as an example that if you find it difficult to control yourself then never make casino games your main choice, because it can make you lose most of your money in a short period of time.

Exactly, we're always surrounded by conversations about gambling, especially as a gambler. It's like a natural cause – you're likely to be around gamblers or environments where they are, and you attract things you love. However, the ability to discipline yourself and stick to your responsible gambling pattern is key.

People win games all the time, and fans know how to hype their favorite teams, especially when they want to bet on their game. Don't bet due to others' hype or with money you didn't plan to use or money meant for something else. It's ok to bet within your budget and you are ok with the game when you hear conversations but avoid betting on every game. Don't exceed your budget, and manage your time, don't sleep in the casino or on your phone. betting.

To avoid temptation, it's good to tune out such conversations or not dwell on them when you hear about them. Follow your betting pattern and don't be bothered. Self-discipline and responsible gambling practices will help you maintain control and avoid the urge to bet when you hear others discussing.

Actually making out some self realizations is really something that too easy to say but it would really be that so hard for you to do when you are on the actual situation on which you would really be that likely to

be greedy on the moment or time that you've seen someone who do really win up that big. There's something that kind of boost up on the moment or time you've seen someone who do make out some big money.
It would really be that totally that a bad idea that you do really make yourself trying out to do the same stuff but actually this is really the most common thing that do happen.

Self control and discipline is something that you would really be needing on times like these but people do usually failed up and thats why they do end up on getting addicted.
They would be only learning up things or lesson on the moment or time that you are on a tough situation on which this is really just that very normal.

Yes I also understand about that, I can agree with your opinion that saying will always be much easier than doing especially in terms of controlling emotions and greed in yourself, and the problem is that it is very difficult for someone to realize that you are in a dangerous situation such as a mind filled with greed or emotions due to experiencing defeat, meaning the biggest enemy here is ourselves which is added to which sometimes there are many other factors that can really indirectly affect the beliefs and expectations of a gambler such as the success of others in achieving big wins which indirectly of course can encourage someone to become more greedy.

On the other hand, it means that there are so many factors that can really influence and mislead a gambler into a much worse situation and because of this, it is difficult for most gamblers to stay in the recommended approach in gambling because when you are a little careless, it is very possible for you to experience changes in your thinking and perspective on gambling, meaning that sometimes even though from the start you already know and are aware that gambling can have a bad impact, it does not mean that you will be free from various changes like that.

Self-control and discipline are indeed something that a gambler must have, but the problem is that not all of them know that gambling can actually have significant negative impacts.

It's natural to want to try something yourself when ever you hear some one or a group of people discussion about the positive things they have gotten from that same thing.
I can remember vividly that I myself got into gambling simply because I saw the win of a friend of mine. Before then, I used to hate gambling with passion, and saw gamblers as irresponsible people, but that changed completely after a close friend of mine won a good amount of money from a lotto game that is very popular in my country.

Every one is looking for easy ways of or to make money, so I won't very much blame those toppinh their casino accounts with money expecting to make a x100 win like their friend did, this is exactly how many get into gambling,  but however, we all should always be mindful of the casinos who choose to play our gambling games on.

OP should share with the community what site they are referring to. Many times certain scam sites will predate certain regions of a country and use a word of mouth popularity to gain name among the people of that region. Everyone should be aware of such sites and steer clear of the scams.

People gambling around you and you feeling the sting of not gambling, sounds like peer pressure. If you are gambler yourself, you will feel that sting much more than a non-gambler who will not pay any heed. So the best way to avoid this is to try to be the second one when this happens.

The temptation to play on a new site that the friends are talking about is strong, but be on guard when you are signing up on sites like those.

I totally buy into this same suggestion, and this because mentioning the site in this context is not giving the site a free promotion, but creating awareness for people who may not previously know about the site, to know that the site is a scam, just incase they come across someone else who did not know that the site is a scam, and he or she invites them to the site, they can immediately remember that someone here have posted about this same site and referred to it as a scam - I don't know if I am clear enough?

I also thought about this before posting my comment above, but reason why I did not mention it in my comment is because I already know the site op is talking about, and it's no other from either 1xbit or 1xbet.

Sometimes, we often try not to mention something that is bad, believing that no mentioning it will help someone out there, but in reality, mentioning that thing and telling people to avoid it is the real help.

People are always thinking that they are close to the big win while gambling. Moreover gamblers are sharing this image from time to time and defending the idea that keeping gambling is the right decision. However this is just causing a bigger addiction.

Those who think are close to the big win will not stop just like that. They will still try to continue playing gambling because they believe they can win after playing for some time. But that will not always happen because gambling is unpredicted when we will win  but we can lose anytime. That image tells us that we can feels desperate and tired of chasing the win but we don't know if we are so close to the win. But we decide to leave it and not trying anymore.

Yes but however it is a very wrong mindset in gambling, because as we know that however and until whenever victory in gambling can never be known about when it will come, we as a gambler only come with capital, see the game and guess then execute with some money, there is no advantage that we bring especially that can guarantee victory.

This means that no matter what situation you are experiencing, and no matter how many defeats you experience at that time, to be honest, it cannot be used as a benchmark that a big win will come soon. And therefore, this is why a gambler is always advised to have good responsibility to accept the situation of defeat.
