I once came across a post where a person shared his joy with others after winning several dozen dollars. It made me think about the relativity of our winnings and the ambiguity of absolute winning amounts. Sometimes even I come across emotional comments from people with small winnings in the style of "it was the best day of my life!" And what do you think, can winning several dozen dollars become the happiest day of your life? Can this amount make you incredibly happy? It is possible that in your country or your area, things and services are very cheap. And for several dozen dollars you can buy some important things and services. But to be honest, I am at a loss. Unfortunately, prices in my country are high enough to be incredibly happy about several dozen dollars. But I would be interested to read your reasoning.

If you are just a type of person that consider as profit as gains I guess its enough because others once they experience already a huge amount they made up to chase more than this and could be lead for greediness to have more wins, there are just typical part of person who are into small bets and if their bet hit a 50$ its kind of joy to them but if you are a high stake rollers 50$ is just a small amount compared with their wins. Its all about the contentment of the players if they are happy with their wins.

Different people different hapiness, If you have a bank roll of 10 dollars or below that 50 is huge and you can stop to that. And you would be happy with that 50!
If you are a high gambler then you bankroll is higher than 50 which is not good enough.


almost 4 hours ago, i log on my BetPanda account and received a 20 free spin on Duck shooting by nolimit.
I only have 0.5 USD on my account and that 20 free spin with 0.2 USD per roll.
I am very happy that my 20 FS gave me 36 USD :) with no wagering requirement.

This is just 36 which is lower than 50! but i am very happy.

Such a win can be lucky for me, If it's a win per day, I wouldn't mind having such wins regularly. However, for it to be an event, to truly appreciate the great happiness, I think it is unlikely, although psychologists advise learning to enjoy the little things. 50 bucks will very quickly end, and the joy will be forgotten, so I will probably remain modest, nevertheless very grateful.

If I walked into a casino and within spending the first five dollars I won $50 dollars back, it would make me happy. That's like finding $50 dollars on the floor with no one else around who could claim it's theirs, take the small wins. However if I spent $100 dollars before getting a $50 dollar win, then you are still down and you should not let your mind trick you into thinking anything else. I'd say that even millionaires who are sensible with money would consider $50 dollars is not insignificant or something to be wasted - although I'm not sure they would get "incredibly" happy from such a win.

A $50 dollar win can make you happy if it is your net win when you are leaving the casino, it is better than taking a walk empty handed, atleast you made profit. Gamblers loses most of the times than what they win so anytime that you finish gambling and do your plus and minus if something is remaining it should make you happy but the level of happiness will depend on the amount won. You cannot expect the level of happiness when you win $500 to when the win is $50. Nevertheless a win is a win no matter the amount so we should feel like winners when we walk out of the casino in profit, it's always better than walking empty-handed.

The value of the dollar is not the same everywhere in the world, so even if 20 or 30 dollars is very worthless in some places, there may be many places where 20 or 30 dollars is definitely valuable. Moreover, I think that 20-30 dollars may be very little for a rich person, but for those who do not have money, it is definitely much. Therefore, no matter the amount of the win, if someone enjoys that win, I will definitely appreciate it. Sometimes, it has been seen that even though I myself earn regularly from my personal source of income, I do not have much excitement but when I win a small bet from gambling, I get a lot of excitement. I think that only money is not enough, the joy of winning also plays an important role.

Figures will depends on the capability of the person since if they are whales then provably that winning $50 is not enough for them.

But if they are small time gamblers and could afford only to spend small amount well provably that $50 win is already big thing for them.

Also for me? I will be happy if I achieve that especially if that winnings is came from small bet and I hit big multiplier then get that result. Winning that amount still good for me since its better than getting nothing in return.

Winning $50 would make me very happy, even winning less would, sometimes for me it is not about the money won, but the feeling of winning, that feeling of knowing i was right with my prediction, it brings a huge smile to my face. However, if i won a few dollars, i wouldn't go as far as calling it the best day of my life, because there are so many days on that long list and i keep changing which is at the top, but i'd be happy that's for sure.

I would be happy to win even $50, although such a win would not make me happy. That would be at the "good news" level. But winning $5,000 would make me happy for a short period of time. Winning $50,000 or even more would make me happy for literally a couple of years. But this joy would be overshadowed by fears that for this money they would be stabbed, kidnapped, robbed, etc. :D

50$ can be, depending on the country you are living in or your (or your family's!) overall financial status, from "peanuts" to something that can greatly relieve the pressure / the amount of your worries.

So I find this more a question about one's financial status than about the reaction in gambling. (Of course, mindless gambling can get you into financial troubles too, but that is a separate topic).

And now to OP question: in my case 50$ can make my day significantly brighter, but not "incredibly happy".

A $50 win will be one of the best wins of me. Not just because I love winning but because of what it can get. The inflation rate in my country has made such supposedly small amount to be massive and it's purchasing power is high. And aside that it is higher than the minimum wage in my country too. So when you think about it, that is a lot of money for a responsible gambler.

If I win a few dozen dollars on a gambling platform, I will definitely be very happy. In my country, a few dozen dollars is a lot of money, with which I can buy many things in my country. Also, I use very limited money on gambling platforms, where winning a few dozen dollars is very unthinkable for me, but if I ever win, I will be really very happy. Are you facing losses while gambling? Then analyze gambling very well, especially in sports betting. Also, avoid playing casino games like spin, dice, poker, etc. Then you will see that you could have reduced the losses a lot because casino games will be much riskier than sports bets.

Me personally yes I will be very happy to win $50. Especially if I only betted $5. But if I had already spent $100 and only won $50 then it is not fun is it?

Anyway $50 in my country would be of big help already. I could buy a month worth of groceries. For some though they might not think of groceries when they win the $50. They might just gamble again with the $50 won. They could either get lucky and win again or just go back to 0. If I got the $50, I would not be greedy anymore and take what I can get.

I think that winning $50 would make me happy. :) No, not incredibly happy, but would simply give me a boost of joy. :) This is also due to the fact that I rarely win anything in contests or gambling. And here it is not even the amount itself that is important, but the fact of winning.

For gamblers who constantly play and win something, the amount of $50 is unlikely to cause any emotions, because it will no longer be new to them. For serious gamblers, impressive emotions are needed to get the effect of "happiness and joy" from winning.

So it turns out that the emotional perception of winnings (depending on the amount of winnings) will differ for everyone. Also, here we can mention the standard of living in different countries, which will also affect the perception of winning. In Europe, for example, these $50 can only cause a smile, while in Africa, for example, it will cause a storm of joy in the winner.

To sum it up, we can say the following: the level of joy from winning $50 will be influenced by the standard of living in the country (the level of financial well-being of the gambler), the experience of the gambler (more experienced gamblers will not be surprised by such a win), as well as the level of general luck of the gambler (if the player wins rarely, then even a small amount will give him a feeling of happiness).

You have to take into account that those $50 in a Western nation and in a Third World country have two very different values. In one, you get a meal for one person, in the other, you get a few weeks or a month worth of salary. So it's not strange if one person would be incredibly happy to pocket that money while someone from the other side of the Globe sees it as nothing special and not worth boasting about.

Why not? I mean how much capital to begin with? If you like double your money then I think it's good enough to take $50 and be happy. And games like sports betting, wherein the odds is like less than 2.x and you won, for sure majority of us are going to take it.

That's why it's better to not greedy at all and target big money. Sure you might want to try and stretch your luck, but if you losses, then the mentality might shift as well as chasing instead of taking that $50 in front of you.

It depends on the financial situation of a gambler at that time he won that amount, he may not be happy for a long time since the winning cannot foot his bills in the long run but at his current financial state he could be over excited. I have had that feeling of joy before because when that winning came was a time when my bank was experiencing network issues for days and i was stranded without cash, i just said let me try luck in a gambling shop with the little money i had with me and i won a small amount but i was so happy because at least it solved my problem temporarily. However, winnings bring happiness and joy no matter the amount you win, it gives you more confidence and hopes in your future bets but someone who hasn't won a bet before will always have a feeling of fear of continues losses such that as soon as he places a bet, in his mind he is already feeling that it gonna be a lost bet, no self confidence.

I cannot disprove the feelings of others if they are satisfied with small amount of winnings. Like in $50, if they've won that outright and clean, that's an achievement that we cannot negate because that's how they feel it. When I was still new in gambling, a few bucks of win was already giving me happiness. While it is common to lose a lot because of how compulsive most gamblers are, we shouldn't deny it when others are feeling happy even in the smallest amount that they've won for.

I think here we can talk about the amounts a player is betting. For example if he bets $1 or at best a few dollars and manages to win $50 then it is a very good bet. He might be very happy just because he was able to turn a very small amount into decent money with a single bet. And if his monthly income does not exceed $100 then it would be a very significant event for him.

Well, there are several factors that can contribute to a person being happy even with a small winning like you mentioned, and one of such factors is one that you have already mentioned which is location where the person lives.
Cost of living is different in different countries, some countries have extremely high cost of living while in other countries, cost of living is low, for those who live in a country with low cost of living, $50 can be alot of money depending on what this is worth in their local currency.

And another important factor again is the person's financial state before the winning the $50, there are some financial situation you find your self in and $50 will be alot of money because you yourself know how long it will go in solving your financial issues, this is why there are always those who would be extremely happy if they win a tiny amount as even $20 from gambling, no minding the fact this is a small amount of money.

I think the joy of winning also depends on how much you bet. If the bet amount is minimal and the win of $50 is several times more than the money bet, then of course such a win will bring joy, but if you bet a lot, for example, $1000 or more, then a win of $50 feels more like "at least I didn't lose". My bets are usually not very big, so a win of $50 for me is a good result, and I am sincerely happy about it. I like the process itself. When you bet, the anticipation of the outcome of the game becomes more acute and intense. But when the bet amount is large, this anticipation turns into nervous tension. That's why I prefer to stick to small bets.

No, and besides, the happiest moments of my life had nothing to do with money. I talk a lot about money and it is a question that does not embarrass me, as it happens to many other people, but it seems to me a bad example to think that the greatest happiness is achieved with money.

In the case you are talking about, that would probably be a very low income person in a poor country. In that case I can see sparks of happiness: someone who suffers scarcity and a stroke of money brings a temporary abundance.

But I would say that money rather than happiness usually brings freedom and depending on what you do with money and your freedom, you can enhance your happiness or the other way around. It is not uncommon to see very rich people who are depressed, addicted to drugs or even end up committing suicide.

For some people that is enough, I know someone here in my country that wins $40 and he is genuinely happy because he started from $2 and play a slot game and managed to hit a good multiplier also adding that he doesn't really play gambling and I think its his first time winning an amount, actually its not that bad. Personally I wouldn't be happy with a dozen of dollars considering how much I've lost lol. though I would be happy if I managed to hit a good multiplier too even it wouldn't cover my overall loss.

It depends on the type of gambler you are actually. For someone who doesn't stay too attached to his loss, and someone that doesn't compound his loss like keeping some kind of record of them, he may be very happy when he makes even up to $20 in his game. It's just the joy that comes with anything that's a win. We just have to be happy and appreciate our self for such. Gambling will surely have those moments when it feels like you have not a single wins and just all losses, so if it's a very small win, you have to still be happy...

The level of happiness of a person is always different, as is the courage to place a bet. Maybe the person always plays with small bets, so it is natural for him to share his happiness with others after winning $50. This figure is relatively small for gamblers who are used to placing large bets, but regardless of the amount of money won, the joy will be something very valuable for those who have been chasing this victory.
I have seen how someone's expression after successfully winning around $110, he immediately vented his joy on his social media with the words "this is my lucky day".

Winning $50 is something that making small gambler happy, especially if they withdraw it immediately. For some people, it may seem small, but in a country with a high exchange rate against the dollar, it can be a big amount, coz with that amount, you can eat well, pay bills, or just get an unexpected bonus. But often the question arises, "What if I continue? Who knows, it could be $100." And that's the trap when he decided to continue, may everything is losses. The important thing is to make a small profit, rather than ending up with a loss. So sometimes the best win is not about the amount, but about knowing when to stop and be satisfied.

If I staked with $0.5 or even $1 and win $50, of course I will be very happy not only because of the money I won but because the money I staked with was small and yet profit was 50x - 100x. You will definitely feel happy but regret why you didn't stake with a higher amount. Winning gives joy to every gambler regardless of the amount won, which ever won amount is in respect to how much that was also staked by the gambler and the luck they had. I would be happy to win such amount with a little stake.

I will genuinely happy if I win $50. It's free money already so why do people still wants more? I guess there is one emotion on everyone, which is greed. And if we take this into account then we should not be satisfied, regardless if we win $50 or even $50k.

So that is the thing with most gamblers, it seems that winning is really taking a different form for them. They are not contented, but instead wanted more. But for me, I'm already cool winning that kind of money and maybe I will have to celebrate it with my family by treating them to a good meal already. And just think of your previous losses as well, maybe that $50 is good enough to cover what we have lost before.

As you wrote, $50 in some countries is a lot of money, which allows you to pay for services and food without any worries.
The issue is also psychological, a small win brings you joy, happiness and makes you smile, for the simple fact
of not having failed.
I personally am made like this regardless of the amount, I make myself happy even with little.
In life, those who are content enjoy, this does not preclude the fact that you must always aim high.

The reaction to winning is different for everyone, perhaps for some of those who have low incomes in their countries would be very grateful when they get a $50 win, it could even be their salary for a few days, in other words, it can be useful to pay for tagiahan or buy the necessities of life. On the other hand, there are those who consider the value of the money to be relatively low, usually those who have high incomes and high living costs, which may be the reason for the low value of the money.

If the win is unexpected it will bring great joy to the gambler.  Winning $50 or winning $1m is irrelevant to the joy of the person what is relevant is how he appreciates how time has given him a surprise of winning something.

That said, I can say it is subjective.  A kid and be incredibly happy if he won a candy so why not a person can be incredibly happy if he won $50?
If the title question is directed to me then I can be incredibly happy if I win $50, I can pay my bills with this amount and for me, that is a good reason enough.

If I win $50, I will be happy because I rarely winning that amount. Maybe that is not too big for you but that still winning for me. No matter how much money we win, that is our winning. But we need to realize we can not always win in the games especially win big. If we can win that money, we can feel happy but we can also not thing much about our winning. If those gamblers come from a country that $1 is worth, they will feel grateful and will happy because they can buy many things. But if in your country are high, maybe you will not feel happy.

Yeah, the happiest moments are usually not related to money. Imho, since money is just a tool to achieve certain goals, then by itself, the money that was earned or won in the casino won't make you happy. And I agree with you that the only exception might be very poor people, who can feel a lot of positive emotions even from winning just $50.

It depends where you live obviously but no, winning $50 in my country wouldn’t make me all that happy. Obviously I’d rather win $50 than not win $50 but it doesn’t go too far in the UK.

If I was in Thailand or something it might pay for a 3 course meal and drinks all night. It just depends what $50 does for you in whichever country you’re in.

50 dollars is a big amount in my country. But for me personally I don't put my happiness in gambling. Yes people in my country might be happy with $50 but that money is only enough for a few days. For me personally the greatest happiness in gambling is when I don't feel happy when I win and sad when I lose. I am very happy when gambling no longer affects my emotions. I often say that the greatest victory of a gambler is when he stops gambling. That's what a friend of mine said. However, not everyone can stop. And if so then at least he is able to manage his emotions and finances well. Because if you are happy with $50, then later you will be addicted and disappointed with the defeat that will make you enter a bet that will never end.

Not at all, as 50 dollars can barely pass a day spending for the food needed for that day where I live, the best day of my life I know for sure will be if I happen to hit the max win multiplier of x50.000 or more and the bet to be at least 1 dollar, I am still looking forward to that day from so many years now and luck has not been on my side. As for the person getting the 50 dollars and saying it was the best day of my life I can only see this happening in countries where inflation is at crazy levels and let me name two very different countries with the same problem, huge inflation, Argentina and Iran, both suffering from this so I assume that person to be from such or similar countries. As I said nowadays after so much time gambling the only thing that can make me happy is that huge max multiplier and I don't see any reason why I should continue gambling after hitting it, it is like waiting for the final outcome.

depends on the context.

If I wagered $10 and won $50 in return, yes I would be happy as fuck.

Also the amount $50 is not bad no matter where you live. At worst it will buy you a good meal and if you live in one of those poor countries, it might cover your monthly expenses.

But overall, yes winning $50 would make me happy. I don’t see a reason why not.

It's either make or break, what if I risked $100 in gambling and keep losing it bit by bit until I have nothing left and at that round shot u win $50? Will I call it a win too? I guess not because I've just lost almost $100 and in return I get $50 back.

To keep my sanity in checked I choose to risk money that's too little to cry about or feel sad about, this is the best way to gamble, see gambling doesn't guarantee you anything but loss, if you are not ready for any loss it's better you avoid gambling all together.

A $50 win makes sense only if you won it using small money, maybe with $2 or even half of that, some greedy gambler won't even accept this as a win, they want their wins in big figures as if they own a share of the casino company.

I don't think $50 is enough for anyone just that there are people that always express so much joy even with little amount that they win. I know that some persons will start making calculations of how much they have lost but it is really not necessary to think about your losses because that is what makes most gamblers to make wrong decisions whenever they win a small amount, they will want to use up whole winning to chase previous losses which mostly lead them to losing the amount they won and still spending part of their own money in the quest. We should emulate the spirit of contentment whenever we win, at least it is not easy to win in gambling, so when you win regardless of the amount you should be genuinely happy and don't think about how little the winning is compared to how much you have lost in your past bets.

Yes in my country. A $50 is already a month rent for a house which is already decent on rural area here.

For the food I think it’s already enough to feed a family for a week with a decent meal x3 a day. Personally, I will be happy if I win this kind of amount especially if I get it from a small bankroll.

In my country everything is cheap while this amount is already huge for a normal family life.

I will be happy at the moment though it depends the amount i stake with if it's what i stake with 10$ i know I have 40$ profit which won't even be enough to change my life but within some time the happiness will go away and will be forgotten because the 50$ will only solve just a little problem and the next day we are still at same place we were before nothing changes, but winning $1000 will definitely change my life and will continue been happy.

A total winning amount of $50? Yeah, of course I’d be happy, but not incredibly happy. Especially considering I’ve both won and lost more than that. But winning still makes me happy. Sometimes, it’s not even about the amount of money. After going through a losing streak and tough times, finally getting a win feels great. It’s like luck finally sided with me. It gives that “hard work paid off” kind of feeling.

Not incredibly happy but I am sure that I will be be happy.

If you are betting for just $0.1 then received $50 as a result, it means you got x500 multiplier. That's a big multiplier and considering how rare it will come out, we should be happy when it happens.
It will depend on the amount of money that we bet. A gambler who bet $5 and received $50 which means just x10 will probably have a normal reaction to it. Happy but not too happy.

50$ isn't an incredible amount of money and thanks to inflation it's not that great even in third world countries anymore, but depending how much was put at stake to make those 50$, it can make me happy for the result achieved and I'm sure many other gamblers would be happy as well. Imagine you risked 10$ and managed to win with 5x odds. That is a pretty impressive result, isn't it?

However, if I had to risk 50$ or 100$ to make that profit, deapite still being happy for the result, I wouldn't be incredibly excited about it.

No amount of money I will won that will not make me happy, but the truth is that the amount of money I win will determine my level of happiness. I am always really happy whenever I experience winning. So, what I believe is that the higher a gambler wins, the higher their happiness according to my own view.

For example, if I risk $10 and win $50 today, I will be really happy, especially if I have never experienced that kind of win before. But once I’ve experienced that level of winning, I won’t be as happy the next time I win the same amount. I think that applies to many gamblers. That’s the reason why, once someone wins $50, their next target will likely be $100 or more.

Totally be that situational into this aspect because we do know that we do live in different country on which it would be totally depending on how much you had bet on and on how much you had been able to win up. Most of the time on which we are that be basing up with USD value on which we know that this value is multiple times higher in comparing or equivalent into those local currencies specially into those developing countries or lets say into those Asia region or on near of that. $50 is something that you would be happy and here in our country then you can already buy something and thats why you cant blame out someone on why they would be happy with that amount. You wouldn't know that they havent been able to win up something big such as that since they do only made out some small amount per bet and able to win up 50 bucks with that and you've seen them very happy with that amount. For most people these amounts wont be significant because they are living on first world but it will be totally opposite into those who are living into those developing countries.

Come to think that the primary reason on why we do gamble is to be happy and having that fun. If you do find yourself that being contented with that kind of amount and been able to make up some withdrawal an did make use of that amount into something worth and not on spending it back again into the casino then thats a good approach but if you are making use of that winning back again into the casino then its just that useless.
If they do find themselves getting happy with that amount then just let them be. Even myself will be that happy already with $100 and immediately making up some withdrawal at the moment or time that i do made up some wins but since this doesnt happen often then i do consider myself still at loss. The most important thing on here is that you do know on how to control yourself and being contented and having that good control no matter what condition that you are into.

Depending on a person’s status, if you're a bettor who usually bets $10 or more per play, then winning $50 isn't something that will make you incredibly happy, even though a win is still a win.

What really gets people excited is when they can flip their money by 10 times, like turning a $10 bet into $1000, that’s the kind of hit that stands out.
But it really depends on the person, and while we might feel happy now, eventually, we’ll end up coming back and losing it all anyway.

Any winning in gambling makes me very happy irrespective of the amount because winning is a privilege. One principle I use is what I call recovery strategy in which after playing high risk games, I will be a very low risk and high probability bet with small odd just to recover some of my capital like 40% to 60% which I will use for subsequent bets in case I lose all my major bets for the week. $50 winning will make me super happy and winning that daily will even make me rich before one year.

If you had a million dollars today and removed exactly $50 from that stash , that wouldn't make you a millionaire anymore...in the same vain a $50 win is a win in whichever part of the world one is from...who knows maybe player wagered 50cent to win this..maybe played some slots games from a 20cent Spin which resulted in a 250* multiplier and that is the win...don't despise such small winnings, these are the things that give you confidence in your strategy and allow you to wager bigger amounts for bigger payouts.

Personally a win is a win ,I would be happy  :)

That’s a win, I should be happy, but I’m not going to be incredibly happy either.

Maybe it’s because I’ve got a bigger goal in gambling... to win an amount big enough to let me retire early. $50, we all know that’s not gonna cut it.

So I’ll lower the bar a bit, maybe if I win something like $100k, that would actually give me a shot at retirement and starting a real business with decent capital. Right now, it still feels like a dream, but I haven’t stopped betting, especially on parlays with huge multipliers.

Actually, I think that each person's emotions work differently. And also there can be many reasons behind that.
And in this case, it may be that a person who has never won a single time since he started his gambling journey, in that case, winning 50$ can be a lot for him. And if he's saying from those feelings that this is his best day in terms of gambling, I don't see anything wrong with it.

I think it's better to be very happy with a small fund and enjoy it than to lose it by gambling after winning a huge jackpot.

I think every individual has a way to make themselves happy in gambling, I personally am pleasure and happiness to win gambling does not lie in the number of wins, I like to win betting with my own efforts, despite winning $5.

I have a feeling of betting that I installed and the game that I play can produce even though it is in small amounts, that's my principle when winning the bet.

if we ignore the value of $50 in different countries , it's how people see gambling that determines how happy we are with small winnings. and in any country $50 is not a small amount of money, at least it's enough to entertain yourself and make one day better than the others.

small amounts, especially when they come out of nowhere, will put a smile on your face during the day. that's the best part.

Actually, if someone wins $50 who has never won $2 in their life, then their expression will be like this.  ;D

But I think these things are nothing more than a bit of an exaggeration. And I don't understand what peace there is in publicly announcing whether you won or lost gambling. Rather, they further destroy our privacy.

Another reason is that I rarely tell people around me about my gambling wins because my winnings can create a craving in their minds for gambling. And if they lose a lot of money gambling, I'll be devastated later.

I want to answer this question like this. If I earned $50 every day, I would be happy, but if it were a one-time thing, there would be no situation that would make me happy.

If it were weekly, it would be okay, but what effect would a one-time thing have?
If I could invest this $50 and earn more money, a one-time $50 thing could also make me happy.
It's all about what happens next.

Incredibly happy? Maybe?

But what is incredibly happy? If I win 50 bucks, I will be happy because that amount is still something that is considerable and might even last you a certain amount of time, depending on where you live and how much things cost.

If I was living in a third world country where 50 dollars would be an entire month's wages, I would be overjoyed with such an amount. But if I was living in Europe as a billionaire, I would probably not even care about the small amount.

But either way, the win would make me happy, I think. Which is why I recommend to only gamble with tiny amounts of money and without the illusion of making money as your goal.

Changing from $5 to $50 who is not happy? Especially those who are in poor countries then $50 is quite valuable for them of course this will make them happy.

Maybe for them, bettors in large amounts, the winnings will be considered small --- but for me it is quite big and happy if I can change from sports betting with small bets to winning $50 or even more.

Because it is still considered a small bettor with $50, it is quite valuable.

In few countries peoples hardly earning $50 in month so its big amount for millions with anyone could be happy if he is having this amount my experience in gambling has never been ideal but still I could be happy if I have this amount regularly because this can bring good changes.
Amount like this surely valuable for many in my country as well where things are getting the worst day by day due to high inflation and may other factors while gambling is not allowed but online stuff helping peoples for having changes.
Online stuff is now giving good help for many peoples even this all is also not easy, but peoples are trying their luck recently I check many apps are giving free spins and other which are encouraging.

A $50 win is a pretty big win if converted to my local currency and it can buy more food and can even meet a need for 1 week if used in moderation.

It's normal for some people to say it's their best day with a $50 win because it's worth it,
but it's not happy for some people or those who live in developed countries with a higher cost of living.

Winning $50 in gambling or even smaller is an incredible achievement for some people,
making it happy of course it happens but making it VERY happy maybe more winnings, but the important thing is not to lose that $50.

I like using a dollar or few more to gamble, it's actually what I can afford to lose every week in gambling, can't do more than this sorry and I don't see any reason to do so, if I win $50 it's a big win, I will stop gambling for that day and withdraw my money until another time.

Always consider yourself lucky whenever you win, saying no to your win and keep gambling means you are rejecting your luck probably for that week, it's a sign of greed, many don't want to accept this but it's true.

I can see you saying if the $50 is a win per day, isn't that too much to ask for? It's not as if you are a worker in the casino, you can't expect to win every day, the casino will be out of business really quick, gamblers losses is how casinos survives.

Once it comes to winning, we can't belittle the amount win as long as it's an opportunity to earn extra sats into our pockets at the reason of gambling, such should be appreciated and if I have this opportunity, that is going to be the happiest moment of my life regarding surprises like this, because its going to be a unique experience in my entire gambling and I may not have to consider on other aspects of life, but only in gambling and I will be more excited to be identified for this rare winning opportunity.

i agree with you

if you win be grateful already and do not be greedy this is a good thing no matter what you win you will surely feel some sense of happiness but since for others they have other expectations they feel disappointed for winning a specific amount
happiest day of my life will be an exaggeration tbh. while i agree with we should be happy but i do not think winning $50 will be the highlight of my life and if it is well that is quite sad

That $50 is worth a sack of rice, and it's our three-week consumption. I consider winning even a small amount a big blessing and something to be happy about, and being incredibly happy will increase your dopamine level, making you better next time.
Winning rarely happens in gambling, so we have to welcome it and spend it on something we will remember and it also erases the bad memory of losses.

50$ is actually my target profit whenever I gamble even if I have high bankroll since that’s already huge enough and already equivalent to 2 days of work at my job.

When I’m using high bankroll, I just complete the x1 wagering requirements for my deposit and just aim for that profit as minimum to make a withdrawal.

Here in PH that amount is already enough to enjoy a fancy restaurant or luxurious buffet for 2 person.

Why not be happy winning such amount especially using 1-5$ to bet, that's really impressive to be honest. I've won $62 using $2 to stake on stake platform on plinko game, it was amazing and got my day a happy day especially when the amount was something worth full in my country.

Any user that can't appreciate that amount is not worthy to be winning in gambling, because he's occupied with greed and lots of pompous character.

Personally, I wouldn't be "incredibly happy", but I'd be amazed if I won $50 on a penny bet, I mean that is 5000x payout. Anyway, $50 can go a long way in a lot of countries, so I understand if there are people who get incredibly happy if they win $50. $50 may not be a lot for us, but it is sizable enough for a lot of people.

I am very happy when I win 50 US dollars. Moreover, winning 20 US dollars also brings me joy! Of course, winning about 1000 US dollars would make me even happier. But I have never won so much.

I read Gagin's book "The Achiever". It said that a person needs to specifically learn the art of getting money. And for this, you need to rejoice every time you get money. For example, you find money on a deserted road - you rejoice! You win money in a game of chance - you rejoice too!

Many people do not know how to rejoice in money, and when they receive money, they experience a feeling similar to shame and discomfort. This is very bad.

A person will never have a lot of money if he does not know how to rejoice in money (even if it is a small amount).

This is a relative matter that varies from person to person and from country to country. In general, there are several possibilities that come to mind for why a person would be happy to win $50.

It could be that they have suffered many consecutive losses, and thus winning $50 would make them happy and optimistic that the string of losses has ended...
It could also be that they are very poor, and winning $50 would mean a lot to them. Although this amount may be small, it is significant for them, and this would make them extremely happy...
It could also be that $50 represents a large sum of money in the country they live in due to inflation and the large difference between the exchange rate of the local currency and the dollar.

I think I have shared my bets with less than $50 wins with so much happiness and as a gambler, you really shouldn't base your entire happiness on the amount that you won but rather on every single bet that goes according to your prediction.

I remember when I shared a win of just $8 with the community - to some, it might be pointless since the amount isn't much but what matters the most was how I won it and that's what gamblers should pay attention to unless they are just there for the sake of the profits and not fun.

It seems the same - $50 is equivalent to a sack of rice containing 50 kilograms and that is enough for me for more than a month. ;D
Who would not be happy with that win at least it can buy groceries for the next few weeks so it is quite worth fighting for if you win in gambling then it is valuable if you buy basic necessities.
But sometimes there are people who are not satisfied with the results of the win because maybe they have won big before.

I am one of those people who make a big fuzz when winning just $10 back in 2010. I won a graphic contest when someone wanted a logo for his website. Its not even my idea I just modify the idea of someone who also joined the contest and then added some colors and designs. I was expecting the 1st choice but won the 3rd place and got $10.  It was one f the best moment that I already tried to provide banner and logo services on fiverr.

If its the happiest moment of someone who posted online, I think it really lifted the spirit of this winner.  I don't mind saying congratulations to him.

Winning any amount would make me happy. In my personal experience, when I regularly gamble, it doesn't matter if I'm gambling large amount or small, my experience is not much difference. As of a recent example, I deposited some crypto in a gambling site and started betting $5 a time on dice and similar games. That's a large amount for single bet but I was comfortable with it as it was just 2% of my deposit. There were wins and losses and I was enjoying it but one day, I lost a lot of it due to martingale and was left with a much smaller amount, the amount that was left after the larger martingale multiplier amount failed. Than I switched to betting $0.1 a time. That's 50 times lower but my experience was not much different from the time I bet $5. More so, I was less stressed on losing a large amount. Winning $50 on that bet would make me feel happy like winning a jackpot.

Different people may have different opinions on this matter. For those who are used to living in a country where everything is expensive, they think that $50 USD is just a small amount of money, even though they are happy that they get the money, but it is not to the point where they are very happy.. especially when they are used to gambling with large amounts of money, winning $50 USD is just a normal thing. But if it were me, $50 USD is still a lot of money, so I would be happy when I get money like that.

In my country, it's like yours. Things and services are expensive, and winning $50 doesn't save you much, and for sure, you won't get out on the streets screaming out of joy for it. But for others in different countries, this amount can be 25-40% of their monthly income. So, for them, this is a big win, and I can understand it. After all, a win is a win, no matter the amount.

It's funny how a gambler can lose 100 dollars today and win 50 dollars after a week and still be happy, there's a mentality and excitement when it comes to winning from gambling no matter how small it might be. Personally, I'm usually happy whenever I win after months of losing constantly. $50 isn't really a big deal but winning this amount would make me happy, this feeling comes once in a while because winning is hard

I like to gamble and I usually gamble with a minimum amount that I set at $50 (my ability). Of course when I gamble and my balance has reached $100 in other words there is already a profit of $50 that I have earned then I can actually withdraw it but that is not certain, because it depends on my will if I need a little extra and gambling provides profit then I usually withdraw it immediately, but on the other hand when I am in a situation that allows me to continue by waiting for luck to give me a bigger win, until I get tired of playing and then withdraw it.

Some of my friends always gamble with a minimum amount of $20 and maybe when they have managed to get $50 from the gambling they do then what they do is withdraw it, usually like that. Because in my opinion our different circumstances so different responses to the $50 profit that we get. Some do make the best use of it and some don't really care about it. I myself feel more like not caring about it.

$50 is enough to cover my living expenses for more than a week, so it's safe to say that winning that amount is a huge joy for me.
I am one of those gamblers who always play with small amounts, like $3 every time I play slots, I only play twice a week and actually winning $10 with a capital of $3 is quite exciting for me because it is almost 4x the capital I brought at the beginning.
So for me, if the amount of winnings exceeds the capital I brought, I usually feel happy because I got that amount without hard work, just pressing a button.

Wining on gambling is not an easy task so excitement with winning on gambling is not dependent on the amount wether big or small amount what is paramount is the feeling of winning a bet so to mea $50 when should make me happy because it shows that my prediction when it comes to gambling is accurate and is working

Maybe the amount that the person bets is quite small, and he does it quite often, so that winning $ 50 gives great happiness. Someone's situation must be different.
Winning $ 50 may not seem big, but I can also stop playing even though the result is below it. I mean, when I'm tired enough to continue playing, and by chance it gives a game session with a small win. I think it's better than losing, and I can enjoy with the game the next day.
I believe that the level of happiness of someone must be different.

The joys of winning are relative to the individual. Some may enjoy it after earning a few dollars and share the joy with others. I have known people who have won gambling and many gamblers enjoy the joy with people they know after winning any amount. The enjoyment of people depends on the regional culture and financial capabilities of the people and the interaction between them but I think that sharing the emotions and feelings of gamblers with others after winning can increase their enthusiasm and enthusiasm. Interestingly in my country there are mixed feelings of gamblers some are self-centered and very careful in spending money.

I remember winning $20 few months ago, it was a small amount compared to what I was losing but when I got that win I completely forgot about my losses lol.. There's a satisfaction that comes with winning, no matter how small the money is..$50 would definitely make me happy right now if I can win such an amount, because over the months it's been a tough run...not everyone gets excited by little wins, some gamblers might even decide to rollover after winning such amounts

For me personally won from gambling is very satisfied whether it low amount or big amount of money and i live at the country with low cost for daily life even people at here can buy the breakfast with only a dollar or less so in my opinion if i won 50$ from gambling i think this is decent amount and it deserve to be selebrate because for me it can be considered as big win especially from this money i can buy my daily needs for 1 or 2 week so certainly i will be very happy with this winning

Firstly i was surprised with such posts. I didn`t understood how to become happy with prize which be enough for 1-2 dinner. But later i compared such prizes with the price of living in authors countries and understood their happiness.
That`s why last few months i compare my prize/profit with medium salary in my country or, if i write a sum, i write the sum of medium salary.

$50 is about my daily salary. I will be glad to win such sum, but i wouldn`t be impressed with it and surely won`t become happy.

You are absolutely right, winnings involving small amount of money are greatly appreciated when the gambler have been through a long losing streak, people overtime leaned to appreciate what they find scarce or hard to get, this is why for the average gambler, every winnings count regardless of the amount involved.

$50 in this context is still a very nice sum of money, most gamblers won't still win this amount of money without first spending very close to the same amount or even more, this is why for me, I will be happy greatly if i somehow get lucky enough to win this amount, but again on the other hand, I must say that the higher the amount of money won, the better the excitement gets.

Any win is good, and that's exactly why we play, to win. The bigger the win, the more positive emotions we get. But in order to have a chance to win $50 you need to place a bet that would imply such a potential payout, either through the odds or through the bet amount. If we rely on increasing the bet amount, it proportionally increases the risk for us. You can bet $50 at odds of 2 and win $50, but if you lose, you immediately lose the whole $50. Naturally, the disappointment from such a loss will be much stronger than from losing a small bet.

Winning $50 could feel like hitting the jackpot especially when you play with penny. Even a small victory can pack a mighty dopamine punch, which lights up your brain and makes you feel smart and successful. since I wager conservatively, normally just one sports match per bet, I know well where my limit is. So when I bagged $50 it is really a big deal to me. Yes if you consider gamblers who are betting thousands, $50 does not seem like anything to them. But those bettor who have daily bets of $10, it is really a handsome win with a celebratory rush.

take all those talk aside, small wins are really important in various aspect, it will help boost your confidence. also small small win will keep your motivation high. it will make your wager more enjoyable without taking risk more than you can afford to lose. so smart gambler always play for that little thrill, they never chase the thunderbolt.

Any gambling winning should come with an excitement of being fulfilled, because its an opportunity others couldn't afford to get, to win a bet is not that common to see happen, because its more of being professional in playing bets or having luck by the way of how we are gambling, so many will expect that each time this winning comes, they must have the reason to celebrate the opportunity regardless of the amount of money won, winning is always exciting to be honest.

Maybe you don't understand why people celebrate when they win. The reason is very simple: we all know that in gambling you win more than you lose, so when people are lucky enough to win, they celebrate, regardless of the amount they won. Now, winning $50 is a good amount.

Even if you go to AliExpress, you'll see that with $50 you can buy a lot of good things, such as computer stuff, clothes, glasses and so many other things. When you withdraw the money, even in European countries, that amount of $50 can buy a lot of things.

Personally, I feel that whatever I get when gambling can make me happy, especially if the winnings can be two or three times the capital I brought for gambling. Luckily, in my country winning $ 50 is quite a lot, and can be used to buy goods or services, even it can be used for daily needs in the next five or seven days. However, even so, I still set aside some of the winnings for the next gambling in the future, so as not to interfere with my savings.

You have to be, its hard to beat the house and now all the times your session will end up you winning against the house, so whatever amount I won I am happy with that and $50 can be considered a good amount it can buy me a lot of stocks of groceries and can use it for two weeks in my gas allowance to my motorcycle so I am ok with $50 and will make me incredibly happy.
Every winning, however small, is an achievement.

Have you ever been in a lossing streaks? if you have you will know the reason why most people celebrate their little winnings as the best of their lives, in a game that is more of losses if you eventually win you will think it's the best for you at that moment except you start winning more often then you will begin to see the other wins as less. I always celebrate every little thing because it matters and makes the journey more fun.

There is no problem in sharing your joy after winning in gambling, but if you do not use your winning money properly, then how will you make up for that deficit if you lose at another time? Remember that you will not win every day, so you must be very careful when spending money. All gamblers who use their winning money properly will definitely be able to survive in gambling for a long time in the future. But those who are not able to manage their money properly after one or two wins will have more  chance of losing. I think those who are aware of the use of gambling money are the right ones.

This will depends on the mood that I'm at when the victory comes because when I'm in a bad mood, any money that I'll win that moment can lighten up my day. $50 isn't still a big money in my currency but it'll freshen up my day when I win it because that's money that I haven't worked for. It's like a gift for me hence I'll appreciate it anytime that I can get it. For days that I'm gambling with hopes that I'll be able to make money that day then winning $50 isn't going to make me happy because I'll be believing that I can make more hence I'll keep on gambling untill I can win something better to take home and call it a day. I gamble more than $50 sometimes hence it won't be an amount that's going to make me over happy.

No doubt, we must feel happy every time we win the game. However, winning a big prize should be more happy. It is exactly what OP asked in the first page. He is curious that winning $50 is enough to make people be more happy.

Indeed, $50 is good amount of money in our country.
If we live in a village, it is enough to treat close friends. But if we live in a big city, it can be spent in a day. It is amazing that you can spend it in the next 4-5 days.

It's a wise decision. We don't need to spend all the money. We don't forget for the next games, put some money for the funds of the next games.

This is a common sense take which I like and I align with. It makes the answer to the OP very clear and complete because it depends on your bank roll, the type of gambler you are and I will add your expectations too.


Nice. I would be happy too if I were in your shoes even if I had won just 30 USD. It is still something. I am a small bankroll so small money for me is better than no money and no money is better than blowing my bankroll.

Another great take that I absolutely align with. And that makes so much sense because that is how I will feel if I were in their shoes too. And I would prefer to win in consistently that to hit one big amount once in a while.

Unfortunately, $50 is not a lot of money in my country, especially considering that our national currency has strengthened a lot recently. However, this money can be enough for a trip to a very inexpensive restaurant for 1 person or even for one person to eat for several days, provided that you do not buy very expensive food. Of course, any win is great and I would be happy to win $50, but I would not experience crazy joy from winning this amount. Most likely, it would just be good news. By the way, a lot also depends on how you earn money. If you work with clients and they bring small amounts of money every day as payment, then most likely you will value small money much more.

I live in the USA where everything cost an arm and a leg. Winning $50 is 1 meal for the family at a restaurant and a decent tip. Might be able to stretch it for 2 meals at mcdonalds but not ideal.

Different areas of the world are going to react differently to $50 due to the economics of the area they live in. Where I am at 200+ would make me smile as that's groceries for the week, 3rd world areas can probably buy groceries for a month or 2 with $200.

Let me tell you something relevant — some years back, I got this unexpected referral reward of ~$50, it, it felt good but not incredibly happy.

Now, In gambling, any win is good. But, it matters more when your financial condition is dire (to gamble when financial condition is dire is stupid though). I live in pretty cheap country, $50 is good amount and it can sustain an individual for a month of basic necessities with a frugal purchase.

Amount dont matter but the event matters. Often after having grinded through gambling sessions one might win something decent. The emotions associated with the win are high and not the amount, which one can understand if it happens to them.

For people living in developing countries 10-50$ is a good amount of money enough to get them a few days meals.

Every event should be celebrated whatever the amount may be, is what I believe.

There are times when winning a $50 bet is a cause for great joy, but there are times when winning a $50 bet may not be a cause for joy. Let's say I took three bets where I lost $50 on the first bet, $100 on the second bet, but even though I won $50 on the third bet, $50 is still a small amount compared to the losses on the previous three bets. Sometimes winning a $50 bet is a source of great joy. In this case, a bet of $50 is a very large amount for those who are new to betting.

In principle, it is clear. Why was the person happy about such a win. You wrote correctly that each country has its own prices and its own earnings and somewhere around 50 dollars. This can be quite a significant amount.
Because there may be a salary level in the region of 30 dollars per month and that means that, for example, if we apply this amount to the CIS countries, then these 50 dollars will become equivalent to some 500 dollars. And you must agree that this is already a very pleasant amount to win.

Much depends on the age of the gambler himself, if it is a teenager who is, for example, 14 years old, then 50 dollars for him can be quite excellent money, because I know that not all guys at this age have any pocket money at all. And this is despite the fact that, according to statistics, this is a fairly active age for gambling and betting.
Promoters know this and therefore many idols of guys of this age often conduct gaming streams that then smoothly flow through telegram channels to closed streams, where the streamer already plays slots.

The results obtained from gambling will also depend greatly on the capital used, although it does not rule out the possibility of getting a jackpot but this is not easy to get, and the size of the capital used will certainly be in accordance with the ability of each player, small players will deposit small and high roller will deposit big money, so for those who are happy with a $50 win, it could be because the capital they usually use is far below that, for example only $ 5- $ 10.

In the past, I would be happy with the $ 50 I got, but because I had gotten hundreds of dollars, so tens of dollars sometimes felt ordinary but still happy and sometimes withdraw the funds to move to another casino or because I had had enough of the game session that day.

Not incredibly happy but I will be happy to have any amount of profit when I’m gambling. That’s the satisfaction I want to get when playing by having profit at the end of my game.

That amount is considered as good amount for me because it’s above daily minimum wage in my country while my job pay grade is above the minimum wage.

There’s some time that I become extremely happy by betting 0.2$ that result to 50$+ profit on slot games.

I don't think it's a matter of first time betting. If you look at the amount of $50, those who can be happy and have fun with the amount of winnings must be those who bet small. Maybe those who bet under $10 per session and can't bet all the time. Those who are used to betting smaller amounts and winning bigger amounts will definitely be happy.
$50 for a rich gambler who is new to betting is also not a victory that makes you happy. But it might be a motivation for new gamblers that gambling is indeed profitable and fun.

The multiplier is of great importance for getting pleasure, but it can also upset us. For example, my record is winning x130. The bet size was a quarter of mbtc. A great win in every sense, right? In both USD and BTC. But considering that my bet is usually 0.5-1 mbtc, I still have the feeling that I could have won more that time if the bet size had been normal. The thing is, it was a free bet and I didn't choose the bet size, it was fixed.

Hey... I withdrew $40 yesterday and it made me happy because I was consistent with betting $5 until I could withdraw that amount and who wouldn't be happy... with $40 then it's enough to buy food for the next few days. Except eating at expensive restaurants. Lol

Moreover, $50 is a pretty decent amount so it can last for the next 1 week for myself or with my wife.
For small bettors, maybe that amount is important, and for me if it reaches $50 then I will withdraw it.

Chances that the amount is already decent that can make a gambler happy is possible especially from those rural places where poverty is really a big concern, winning $50 can be enough to supply a week of food though like OP said if the place where the gambler lives have a expensive prices with their basic needs then the amount of $50 can be treated as a small reward that a gambler can enjoy buying snacks or some small treats for yourself..

It's a small amount of money that would be exhausted In just a few minutes but a win is a win no matter how small it might be.. when you assumed that it's a win per day I was a bit startled because this isn't something that cannot really be achieved... winning in gambling is possible but winning per day no matter how small it might be is absolutely impossible because if it was then it would automatically make it a source of income.

Even the smallest victory should be enjoyed because regardless of how small or big the victory we get, it is a very good part. We do not need to peg whether the winnings can support the needs that we have to spend in life or not because after all, the focus on gambling cannot lead to this because we must be aware that gambling will not be suitable if it is leaned on to support daily needs.

I personally will be happy if I get a good enough win like $50 which is the benchmark although maybe the hope is to win more than that but when we can't realize it then $50 is already a very good thing to celebrate.

Don't make gambling a part of earning income because this is a thought that although it might be an option, I think it's hard to do and it might even be impossible except for a few people.

Some times it's really not about the amount that was won, it's about the feeling of winning. Winning $50 certainly wouldn't make me feel like it's the happiest day of my life but I will be happy for winning, even if the amount was lower I would still be happy and grateful for it, regardless of the amount, the thrill of winning can be overwhelming especially if you are in a bad situation that requires money. Being incredibly happy about winning $50 depends though, because for some people it is nothing while for others it is everything.

Sometimes it’s about the amount that you win, but there is always joy that you are able to win your bet. The set of people that are happy because of the amount they win are the people that are gambling just because of money, so whenever they win little amount, they are not always happy because that’s not really what there target it, but even if I win $10, then I will be happy, it’s not really easy to win a bet.

I don’t know the country which you are from, but in most countries under 18 years are not allowed to gamble, they see people that are below 18 years as underage, and they are not capable of making decisions by themselves yet. In my country it’s always written on the terms and conditions of every gambling site that under 18 years are not allowed to gamble.

For me, it depends on my wagering amount, Winning on its own can make someone happy, at least you got back your capital with some extra cash.

What would really make me very happy is the fact that I staked very low and won big(In my country, $50 is a good sum of money to feed someone for 2 weeks or more, even higher than the minimum wage), If for instance, I staked a dollar or less and won $50, that means 50X or more, I think that alone should make me very happy, but not necessarily the happiest day of my life since I've won a bigger amount before.

I can get excited for a win that's not even up to that amount because that's the spirit behind gambling. It's hard to win and whenever you are lucky enough to grab those little wins you wouldn't have any other choice than to feel excited. Personally, a 50 dollar win would make me happy because converting it to my currency would make it a bit valuable to sort out a few things. Learn to celebrate your little wins

That is true, it depends where you are living on this planet. Because in some countries 50 bucks would already make a difference in your daily living. For some, it is like just a loose change. Also, on the perspective that you won $50 from a $1 bet is already like a big achievement. So it depends on where you are referring at.
And just think of the fact that always be grateful whatever winning you may have, big or small. It is not a losing bet, so be happy about it, right? The point of view here may vary from one person to another and also where they are residing at. As some others said, 50 bucks may be a very good amount to other countries, whereas, in most advanced countries, 50 bucks is just like a loose change.

Winning will still bring happiness, regardless of the amount, because basically everyone who gambles always puts it as the main goal. In a situation of continuous losses, a $50 win means a lot and it can ease emotional turmoil a little, and can make a gambler mentality stable again. For some people, a $50 win is already considered a large amount.

The standard of victory that leads someone to achieve happiness in gambling certainly varies, it all depends on the amount of budget that is usually bet. Winning even in small amounts is still worth celebrating, and spend the winnings to buy some necessities that may have been delayed. Sharing with close friends also is better, because they are the people who often hear about your gambling experiences.

In gambling is either you win or you lose but the mindset of every gambler is to win ( make profit) which is not certain that it will happen that way because is not easy to predict game and win but there is high chance of making loss and so winning is supposed to make a gambler very happy and not just happy because wining gambling is not easy. Before one will go into gambling they should bare it mind that they can also as well make loss even as they are planning on winning they should also prepare for loss because the two things are paramount in gambling. I always feel good and more than happy whenever I make gain in gambling and is not easy.

I would like you to know that the joy/happiness in gambling winning is relative to the financial status of the gambler. You can expect a poor person to win $50 or slightly higher and not be very happy. This amount is not even up to what some people would start their farming activities with in my country if they are in a rural area. And this is more than the monthly salary of some poor people. You can't expect them not to be happy when such money comes cheaply. But this is certainly not something that will move the rich and the middle class, for they are used to making money far above that amount.

If I place a $2 bet and end up winning $50, you bet that I'm going to be quite happy, not because $50 is an extravagant amount of money, but because of the major multiplier. Certainly, to answer the question, it all depends on your country of residence and how much you value money. $50 is a decent sum, but if I'm being honest, my usual bets range from as low as $5 up to $40 to $60 (I'm talking about sports betting). On average, I bet approximately $20 to $30 per match, so based on that, a $50 is not a big deal, it is however, if you're betting just a few dollars.

It's a strange conversion, increasing relevance by a factor of 10, because it's absolutely not. The value is obviously different, but I think in this contingent $50 doesn't have much value anymore either, I'd compare it to countries in Africa, obviously. There over the years the value of the equivalent of $50 unfortunately only increases, so obviously for the people in those countries $50 can really make them happy

The gambler will definitely be happy if the return is higher according to the amount we bet. You are right when you win $50 with a budget of $2, then that $50 is definitely not a small amount. However, for those who have the habit of betting more, $50 may be small. But there is no chance to consider $50 insignificant from the perspective from which we consider it. Maybe $50 is less important for a rich person, but it is definitely valuable for the common man. In terms of betting, those who bet $30-50 may not find much joy in winning $50, but those who bet small will definitely value $50 a lot.

When it comes to profit (regardless of the amount), personally I would be happy. It's still a gain from gambling and as we know, winning is rare, $50 is actually good especially if you only use a small capital then hit such amount.

Sometimes, contentment is lacking to many of us, that's why we don't value what we already gain by wagering more. In our country, you can already buy a decent food that will last for days (depending on the numbers of the family). So who would not be happy? It's about contentment and how you value your earnings. As I have said, even it's small, still, it is a profit.

Winning, regardless of its amount, will make a gambler happy. I think that’s the ultimate goal of gambling, to make a win, having it huge is just a bonus. So winning an amount like $50, for me that’s already something to be incredibly happy.

Not all gamblers end up winning their bets, majority are still losing. So if you have given the chance to win $50, make it as your lucky charm. Appreciate it, and who knows, that will be a good start-up.

Of course, winning when gambling can make us happy, especially when we get a win that is quite big than usual. However, even so, we need not to expect too much to always get a win when gambling or betting, because basically gambling is intended for entertainment only, while the profits obtained should be considered as additional entertainment.

Regarding the $ 50 in our country, I think it all depends on each person's lifestyle, because I also see many people in big cities who can still save, even though they only get about twenty percent of the $50 per day, and I think this is all relative to how each person can determine their financial principles.

Regarding the allocation of money from winnings when gambling, I think it is indeed wise and should be applied to every gambler. I remember that I didn't have such thoughts before, but after knowing the importance of controlling finances, I finally realized it.

It is very relative to be honest.
Here there are people who survive with very little money less than those fifty dollars, so it would make sense to me if someone from my country managed to pull such a win off and withdrew it all from the casino to their personal wallet.

Also, we should keep in mind there is a lot of gambler who do not keep track or have a log of their total money wagered and lost to the casino or bookies, it is easier to get excited over fifty dollars when one has already forgotten one has lost over one hundred to the same casino last month. It also depends on the size of the gambling budget of each one of us, anyways, there are so many personalities and so many gamblers out there, that anything is possible, from people to getting mad at Lossing rice cents to others feeling nothing at winning one thousand dollars in a single dice roll.

Everyone must be happy when he/she wins the games. But winning big prize should bring another level of excitement, we probably feel more happy than usual wins. Well, I think we both agree with this matter.  ;)

Sure, we don't expect too much to win huge prize because this is something bad. It triggers us to gamble excessively and we even gamble with no limitation. Besides addiction, it will result in severe losses. You are right that gambling is actually mostly for fun (entertainment). So we shouldn't force to spend too much money.

Agree, it will also depend on the lifestyle of the individual. Even if someone lives in a big city, $50 can be quite useful if he doesn't use if for unnecessary thing. If someone only uses it for affordable basic necessities, $50 will be very helpful. He/she also may still have a chance to spare some of the money for saving, too.

Know well the good financial management is very important. In this way, you can use your funds properly. Even in gambling, the financial management is needed to avoid overuse. It is good that you have realized it, you should use the funds in a more effective way in the future.  ;)

A gain is a gain, and I am also going to be happy with a $50 profit. Whether it's for a week, a bi-week, or even a month. As long as it's not making me incur losses, that's so much better than most of the gamblers who are losing more money.

Yeah, definitely. This is better if you started with a small bankroll and you're eventually gaining these amounts to add up to your entire bankroll.

A gain is better than to look at high losses that people are still bragging amount which is something not to brag about.

The amount is not as important as the winning bet itself, which leads to an adrenaline rush. Of course, if the amount of winnings is large, the player will receive more positive emotions. But in any case, regardless of the size of the winnings, it encourages us to place bets over and over again, increasing their size, because it becomes obvious to us that winning is possible, but in the end we lose our money.

$50 is actually a big win and it actually becomes bigger and more appreciative to one if you’re seeing it from the perspective of what you’ve risked to play the game and you’re getting a much more amount than your inputted capital used to bet in the game. Once you have a target goal and maybe $50 is your targeted price, then when your target is reached for the day or week, it will make you feel really happy because that is what you set your mind to and will appreciate it very much and will also be contented with it. So happiness comes from your expectation of a win to you and how those wins make you happy.

You are right, I agree with you on this, but like I will always, happiness is a choice, we can choose to be happy and contented with what we have, or we can choose otherwise, it all lies in our hands.

$50 is a indeed a good win, but let's be honest, it depends on the person who won it, there are some gamblers who put in a lot of money into gambling, and winning $50 may likely seem like an insult to them, it takes someone desperately in need of money to appreciate a $50 dollar and maybe even lesser amount.

Imagine someone is betting $200 on each spin while playing a slot game, and he or she wins $50 on one of the spins, this is nothing compared to how much he must have spent in total playing, but for the person betting in cents, a $50 win is a big money because they desperately need it.

I wonder if there are any countries where winning $50 would be enough to buy some important things? Of course, this is not a very specific question, but nevertheless. Unfortunately, I have not been to many countries and therefore have a poor idea of ​​the prices on many continents, especially on the continents of Asia and Africa. Once I saw an interview with Jack Ma, the founder of the Chinese company Alibaba. He said there that he once worked as a teacher and received only $10 a month. True, it was a long time ago and those $10 do not correspond to today's $10 due to inflation. But it turns out that $50 would be his salary for six months. I also wonder in which country you can make the largest or most significant purchase for $50?

Here in my country, a 50$ can already pay my monthly electricity bill. Winning that amount in gambling would really make me happy as I will have extra budget for other expenses. Prices of food which is a basic necessity has also gone expensive these days so having an extra 50$ is a blessing which would allow me to buy extra groceries. That amount is already a week of food here in my country.

Gambling is a game of luck and winning that amount is not easy if your bankroll is not that big also. If you play with only a budget of 20$ or less, having that amount of winning is already a lucky day for you.

With $50 I can definitely buy a lot of good things in my country Bangladesh, for example, I bought a good quality table for my computer which cost a little over $50, basically $53, but you can get a much better quality table for $50, besides I bought a chair for my computer table, Which are used in a company's office, its price was less then $50. Also, my monthly electricity bill at home comes less then $25, that is, I can pay my electricity bill for 2 months with $50. Also, many important things for daily work or for cooking, that can be easily bought with $50.

It really depends on what amount makes a difference in someone's life. For example, $50 is equivalent to approximately 1/6 of the minimum wage in my country. In some countries, this amount is half of the gross minimum wage (without deductions, which would make this amount even lower). So I believe that $50 would make many people incredibly happy; I would be happy; this money would serve me well, even with a high cost of living due to inflation, which I believe is a problem in most countries.

Now, regarding gambling, it is necessary to understand how much money was bet, whether the amount of $50 actually came from profit, because, most of the time, the amount spent to obtain it may have been higher. In this case, it will not make any difference...

Normally as a good gambler would always feel happy after winning no matter how little it might be. Because is pretty obvious that winnings doesn't always happens all the time, so as a gambler that knows what gambling is all about would definitely get joy regardless of the amount. Although I totally agree with you because $50 winning would never in any way buy a reasonable something in some countries. But even as that I think it's essential for us to always accept any winnings with a good faith because gambling is not a source of income, is always a game of luck.

I can`t agree. Compare winning $5 and $50. I think you will feel the difference. Of course all wins will make you happy but winning huge odd or huge sum will be out of the row for you. My betting is not about big bets, so i remember the odd 14+ win. It was outstanding feeling, not like common wins.
PS. Before starting long term play i tested my strategy with small bets. That wins made me happy because they prove my strategy, they made me believe that i would win.

As far as I know, these are really mainly African countries, and salaries there are much lower than 50 dollars: Congo 10 dollars, Zimbabwe 15, Somalia 20, Nigeria 25, Mozambique 30, Kenya 50. And these are generally unimaginable numbers.
Perhaps that is why the topic of cryptocurrencies is so widespread there, for these regions, cryptocurrencies and casinos are really a way to get out of a bad financial situation and become free from borders and needs. Another issue is that it is difficult for such guys to find extra money even for a bet of 5 dollars.

I wont be saying that winning $50 will make me incredibly happy, but winning in general make me happy. But I would like to specify that I am talking about not about gambling with 1 cent and winning 1 cent, and not about games that are quick and it isnt hard to get a serious of wins. For example playing dice with 1 cent and 95% win chance wont make me happy. I can say, that winning in sports betting make me happy always.

I didn't know that there are still people like that, that shares their winnings. May god bless them. For me, I'm also not stingy but as long as I already recovered most of the amounts that I've lost. I understand those people who win small amounts. It is because even small amounts can also rare to come now.

So how much more winning a several dozen dollars? That calls for a celebration. I am lucky that I'm one of those countries you describe there. It is just that I'm a bit greedy and I regret heavily if I lose the money that I already win. I will say things like "With that money,  I can already buy the foods that I like and eat them for like a month". You are not alone OP. Almost all of us who are involved in gambling are for sure still down. Some are not only minding it for them to continue enjoying gambling. You can try that too but I still wish you can recover and you better discipline your self harder next time.

Even if you convert that amount on the amount that would you make extremely happy, you probably wouldn't get the same feeling. Because overall poverty can be crushing in a place where $50 is a lot.

Also if you win 50 and you are happy, that could be because your bet was very low, and your bet was low because you don't have much money to bet. So that win would be proportionally high, and with that your mood as well.

And some people have just more positive attitude towards life. They can be happy for less, which makes them pretty happy people no matter the situation. This attitude just makes me more thankful from what i have, because i don't need to worry where i sleep or what i eat or what happens when i am injured. I got all that covered. $50 covers maybe one big trip to grocery store, but nothing else, and i am not even mad about that, as i have everything else covered, even though it costs more.

To some, 50 bucks wouldn't cart anything better than maybe a burger at McDonald's.. but to others, it goes a long way!
Ain't nothing ambiguous about this; spare yourself sometime and go on vacations in 3rd world countries and you'll understand why.

Since I'm not aiming for too much (which is the best way to probably get lucky with a huge win in time) anything that puts me in profit for a single bet is enough to be happy about. I'm not staking a $100 with an expectancy of $500k on a 50x roll.
several dozen dollars? How much are we looking at specifically?

Of course, I do appreciate whatever amount of money that I win from the casino because that's the only way in which you can get little back from what you have lost to the casino. I will be incredibly happy if I win $50, because it will go a long way for me. I can use it to buy something important, or use it to pay for my bills for that week.

$50 is a very small amount of money, but for someone who has no money, the free income may have made them happy.

In the country I live in, you can only drink tea and coffee with this amount, nothing more, but in some countries it can be worth a lot.

This is completely related to the economic situation of the country.

You are absolutely right mak013. A $50 win is unquestionably worth more than $5. This has created a truly rare, joyful wave in your case, especially when there are tough odds like 14+. A big win like that, no one can call it a small win. So it proves that your strategy works perfectly & that it is powerful, though.

I always welcome your approach, what you said, testing small stakes bets before going big. Really smart enough to build actual confidence, no fake hype from online promo. So when you hit a big jackpot, it really reinforces your game plan nicely, not pushing you towards reckless risk taking. When you win over high odds, it really teaches discipline & patience, your emotional control beats chasing accurately. Well played, dude!

If that money is converted into my local currency, it's more than my country's minimum wage, which I see as an amount that should be able to put a smile on my face, and how much money I also used to stake the game that gives me that return will also contribute to how I celebrate that winning the money is a big small money for an average person from my countryside.

I think the best way to enjoy gambling is to appreciate every win. Not appreciating gambling wins can make a gambler greedy in chasing more wins, which can ultimately lead to losing everything. Gambling is a game of wins and losses; this means if one is lucky enough to win a small amount, it is a privilege and better than winning nothing. Winning any amount, whether big or small, is a good win. Winning as little as one dollar is something that can be used to gamble another time.

A $50 winning prize is very low but I will still accept it as it can make me eat a good food already or buy something I want like digital games. But maybe people here in my country who do usually gamble is already happy with that kind of money. It's already a 1 week budget to survive, a budget that'll make us eat a good food, make us drink alcohol or something like that. But if I won a $50, I think I won't share anything to anybody because I have some plans for a money like that, like for personal cravings and such, I'm not obliged to share anything especially if its just a $50, maybe if I won at least $400, I might share. $50 might be small for others, but for some of us, it already brings a bit of comfort. That’s why even a small win like that can feel rewarding in its own way.

Every winning I make, whether it was $5, $10, or $50…I'm already happy with that. Why? because this never happens every day. If I lose yesterday and win today, at least I make some recovery. But it was a different feeling when you were winning the jackpot prize. Unfortunately, it was not given to everyone. That is why, even if it was small, we must feel contentment.

If we want to enjoy our gambling journey, we also know how to appreciate small wins. At least we know ourselves that we are not too unlucky and likely have the chance for the big wins.

Winning is winning, be it $20, or $50 it is something that gives joy to gambler especially when it's their first time of gambling and they win's such amount, it is like a path way to them to get lured into gambling the more, again other thing we need to consider is that the amount won if converted to their respective local currency you would see that such amount is huge. Lets take Our country for instance; $50 should be around 78-80k NGN, and this is above some company's payment per month or even some civil servant salaries, so tell me why won't they be happy?

Lastly, as we can see things are not getting better anymore, rather inflation is eating up every section of worlds where things aren't normal as 10 years back, instead things are getting worsted, fight, war, and people dying. The cost of things has skyrocketed in such a way that $1-2 can't sustain someone for a breakfast or lunch for single person. So if we are talking of a family of 4-6 persons they should be expecting around $8-12, for breakfast or dinner, and if we equate this to 30 days you would see that those working in a country where they are been paid $100-150 per month are still in a debt.

Because what we win is not necessarily what other people get considering that in gambling everything leads to luck so regardless of how much profit we need to be grateful and it is normal to actually make this a pleasure.

Precisely with small wins we can make big wins memorable, but sometimes some gamblers are too focused on big wins because the hope is that with big wins they can improve their financial condition which is actually a slightly complicated situation in my opinion because they will never be satisfied with the situation when the results they expect do not match reality.

Don't be too focused on big wins so that you forget the wins you had before just because you think the win was not too worthy because with this attitude we will only make ourselves a little difficult in our gambling activities later because we set too high a win which is actually a little difficult to do every time.

Yeah, I remember earning $50 at that age and I was incredibly happy. It depends on age, environment, country and many other reasons.

I would have a smile on my face for $50. If I had earned $5000 by spending $50, then I would have been happy. Some spending prices can vary quite a bit from country to country. If $50 is enough to cover your bills, basic needs and have some fun, then I would say it is a good income. In third world countries, $50 can be a really good amount.

Good point, if you want to simply just to enjoy appreciating your small earnings can keep you motivated, same with you a win still a win and much better than losing your capital right? So no matter how small your profits you can continue enjoying it and use it as additional capital or use it to treat yourself a drink, or whatever you think that may allow you to feel that you are good on particular gambling game that you earn your profits.

It don`t looks good enough as for me. When i hear "some recovery" and "never happens every day" i feel a loser. It is impossible to win with such attitude, you program yourself for losing.
To be happy with small wins - ok. Some recovery - not ok, very not ok.
PS. I`m bettor and i think that if you lose more than win - it is your problem and you have to change something in your strategy or analyze at least.

the secret to be happy is keeping expectations low
have you seen these situations where people are miserable because their expectations are just so high it's impossible to reach it?
on the other hand if you are expecting zero then receiving any prize, even as small as 50 usd it can be huge and a big source of happiness

I think for the main question it'll depend on how much the person earns and how much money is a lot or a little for them

Thats the key on which you do need up to set your expectations low so that if ever you would be losing then it wont be hurting you that much in compared into those people who are expecting too high at the moment that they do gamble. Winning amount would be depending on several factors on which it would be depending on how much you had bet on and on how much you had been able to win. Winning amount would vary and that contentment that you would be having at the time that you do able to hit up those wins. If someone becomes happy with $50 then so be it and just let them be on cherishing out those wins and we do know that not all people do live on 1st trier countries on which 50 bucks is just that small or isnt something significant or something that could make you happy. For me on my amount then it would be somewhere in between $100-200 on which this is something that I can buy and could be able to hang out with my family with that amount on which eating into a restaurant with those winnings or buying up some small electronic gadgets like mouse or keyboards or any.

Well it depends on how broke I am lol, gambling is a very funny thing sometimes you win less than what you have lost in the past and somehow you still feel happy about it because that's just the mentality of the game. I have won less than 40 dollars in a bet I played and I was happy about it. The excitement goes beyond the amount won, there's just a satisfaction that comes with winning a bet because it can get really difficult and seem impossible to win at some point

I get happy winning $50.  Sure.  I get happy winning less than that.  For example, I won some packs of baseball cards the other day and gave them to a friend's kid.  It was extremely exciting for them and that made me extremely happy.  It wouldn't have mattered if it was $2 worth of baseball cards or a new car...  Being able to make someone else happy brought me happiness and the amounts involved weren't a big part of the equation.  I would say if winning money doesn't make you happy, it is because you aren't doing anything worth a damn with it.

$50 is a good amount, who rejects $50 as profits. Scams happen worth $50, so getting such an amount as profits is better than nothing. If i gamble on $25 and make X2, then i should be content with my win. I sincerely will appreciate any profits i make from gambling, also knowing that $50 to some countries is a considerable amount that wouldn't be risked and should be appreciated if won.

It depends on how many bet that person have bet in a week or months, when you lose much money on gambling I don't think we will be able to celebrate $50 wining on gambling, you will celebrate or be happy on gambling when you have not experience much lost on gambling, do you also know that in gambling you may think you have profited today and tomorrow you lose more than what you profit, so I know that gambling is a something that have to do with understand ing, so if you have the experience in gambling nobody will be happy when it win small amount in the gambling

It is very natural if for example the amount you win is not as big as the amount you have lost in the past while you were a gambler, the reason is because there is no certainty and guarantee about when you will win and how much you will win, the task of a gambler is only to accept and use wisely regarding whatever amount we get and that is the reason why a gambler should not remember the amount of defeat they have experienced before because it will only be a boomerang that will encourage gamblers to return to pursue greater victory considering the amount of previous defeat was large.

So no matter how much the winnings are (especially 100% of the capital) we must still feel happy, in my opinion, grateful and responsible gamblers are those who will enjoy the pleasure and sensation of this activity.

I think the winning amount that makes a person happy after gambling depends on the greed. I should say greed, because of the people who engaged with gambling are greedy lol. Though a win is a win, but there are certain level of happiness and that also depends on the amount of winning. $50 win is a huge win for those who regularly bet within the range of $1-$5. I'm within this range when I play slots, so that for me, is a huge win as well.
Actually, doubling up your initial capital is a good win. Everything above it is absolutely a huge win.

Most time folk don't gamble for the profit alone some of them gamble for fun and they enjoy the feeling of winning whether small or big . They just enjoy the idea of winning something the joy in it , most time you will see some people that have loss tons of money despite that being happy for just small wins . 

There's pleasure in winning , that's why some folk go into gambling. While some still go for the idea of getting rich quick with gambling ,after hearing some folks testimony on how their lives changed for hitting the jackpot and is true gambling can actually change one lives for the better but still approach it with the right psychology like sticking with the gambling for fun.

Okay, I’ll keep it very close to what most of us in the forum are familiar with and can relate with. $50 is a pay grade some of us in the forum work to earn from signature campaigns even though it might be passive for some but yeah, it’s okay and should you happen to win that off a bet, you’ve done good and ought to be proud. I definitely count it for my wins because, it goes above the amount at times and definitely, counts as one of the times I get to recover some lost funds to gambling and so yeah, I’m happy about that.

Some people currency are weak compared to the dollar. Anytime there money is converted to their local currency, even if their currency doesn't have high purchasing power, the dollar after converted to their local currency will do alot for them. You can imagine how that $50 can be spend for 4 days with good meal and you can have access to internet cable and watch movies or even have some fun for the weekend with such amount in some countries that has weak currencies.

Now, about winning the $50, this is going to depend on the amount I used to bet. You can't tell me otherwise that if I use $3 to bet and win $50 dollar I wouldn't be happy. I can only imagine using $100 to get thousands of dollars, the amount is high to risk for me but I can only look at how good I'm to be skill in making that kind of money. If you lose $10 in a day, you can use that same strategy to win $150 before the days runs out, it will be fun if that's really a realistic idea.

Being happy does not comes with a particular demand in gambling for us to have won a particular amount before this can be achieved, any amount of money is appreciated by us, though we cant deny that we have some gamblers who will think its not enough for them to earn as being small, while some can capitalize on the same $50 to make more from it, if the opportunity comes in, then they take it with pride and uses it to gamble more.

Yeah very true a win is a win regardless of the amount. Everyone loves to win nobody is happy when they lose their funds to gambling even though we bet with what we can afford to lose we didn't pluck the money from a tree we worked and earned it. That is enough reason why someone should be happy with their wins regardless of the amount. I'll even feel very happy if I win $20 from a bet.

Usually it's like this, no matter how much the win is, when it's a win, then the gamblers will be really happy, although it doesn't guarantee everything, but if it's a lot, I personally do.

Never mind winning that much, even when winning $50, even though we just lost $100 before, usually we will be very happy because we already won $50, right? without thinking about the previous loss which was actually 2x as much. This is what is often funny hahaha

Does it necessarily matter?, a win is a win for me not minding the amount basically little wins still matter and by the look of things winning such money without spending much sounds lucky. We have different ways of expressing happiness which involves shouting, jumping etc. Definitely I will be happy winning such amount but I’m not the kind of person who shares information like this on the internet meaning people might not get to know what happens when I win or lose, it’s just simple as keeping it private even when I feel happy about my win.

This is what I usually say: there is this excitement that comes with winning. You'll see a gambler who has consistently been losing, but once they win, they forget about all the bad days and are just happy. Anyway, I still won't say those who win $50 and don't get excited about it are ungrateful. They must have staked a lot of money and are expecting something more. Fifty dollars may be very insignificant to them, but definitely not to a poor gambler who needs that money so badly. We must also understand that there are gamblers with high tastes

I think it depends on the situation. Maybe for those who gamble with big amounts, they might not be satisfied with a $50 win, but to others who gamble sometimes for pretty small amounts, like around $10 or $15, the result brings them more happiness, even me, because I made it 3x or 5x.

Look at those I usually see in contests with $25 then they can win more than $100, plus they win the tournament.

Yes, it really depends on how much is your capital. But there could be gamblers that really looks for bigger money and might not be satisfied with just $50 or even $100 profit. And just like you said, if you big amounts in the beginning and so the target could really be very big or at least double your money.

I'm not really sure about the contest though, maybe gamblers who joined might have a fix budget and if they losses it then might not join the contest anymore. But for like casino games, winning $50 is not going to satisfied them, specially if you are like hook in this kind of luck base games.

I want to note one detail that is very important in the psychology of buying. Look how it happened to me: I really wanted to buy myself a set-top box for my TV, so that it would have an Android service with applications. But I was saving on myself and all the time trying not to spend money, although I lent large sums to friends. And when I won 50 dollars in a raffle here on the forum and was able to win them back, I immediately went and bought myself this set-top box. God, how happy I was! For me, 50 dollars is not a lot of money, but at that moment I felt that this was Extra money and I could safely buy what I wanted with it. In general, there is a psychological side to shopping, when a purchase for 50 bucks can make you very happy.

Yea this is just how it is supposed to be. Any gambler who stakes as low as 10, 15, 20 dollars and still considers $50 as something too small to be won, that gambler is only being too greedy and has no genuine explanation to why he thinks that is such a small amount to be won. Staking big amounts means "yea, I am expecting something bigger" while should low budget gamblers expect something bigger as well. Maybe they are just trying their luck, after all, gambling is all about luck.

For a person who's probably new to gambling, it's almost very normal to see them get incredibly happy for an amount they won at the casino and this may have nothing to do with the cost of things or living in their country or residence.  And for someone who is often unlucky,  at almost every win they become happy because it gives them the reassuring hope that they aren't non complete failure with gambling,  so the reasons will always varry.

You don't have to win a stash of dollars to be happy and that's why everyone has got their parameters and definitions for happiness,  somethings may not seem like a big deal to you neither will such even get you happ or emotional but for some others, it's enough to keep them happy for the rest of the week, especially those who intend it for fun and seeing they're getting rewarded in the process even with small amounts,  so basically it's not just about the amount won or cost of living in that country but in the personality who won such amount.

And since gambling is completely based on luck, you have to accept any win, not only the win but also the loss. We cannot get anything more than our luck, and we should not expect anything beyond reality. So if you make any kind of decision emotionally, then your results will definitely be negative, human emotions and greed are the biggest causes of human disaster, so they must be controlled, and especially in gambling, the gambler must be limited to his ability.  ;)

It depends on the gambler that won the money, the amount they staked and the amount they were expecting to win. If it's a gambler that's doesn't stake with huge amount but just smaller amounts or maybe a gambler that has not won $50 before, they will be happy for winning such amount for the first time but if it's a gambler that was even expecting to win more than $50 from that bet, they might not be happy about it. I have said it before that If I staked with $1 or $0.5 and win $50, I will be happy.

I support your point of view on this matter. Even if the win is small, there is joy in it, on the other hand, the regret in the case of defeat will be the same, but the regret of those who lose a lot will definitely not be like the average. Those who consider gambling as a means of earning money have a different view. They do not care about small wins. They are ready to lose, but they do not try to get big wins, but rather how they can get big wins. For those whose goal is to earn money, the bigger the win, the more satisfied they will be. However, for ordinary gamblers, I must say that winning $50 dollars is definitely not an ordinary win.

Well, $50 is already a decent amount in our country. However, this won't make me lucky enough to feel like I was too lucky and incredibly happy. Of course, at least I have been given the chance to win, which I think is the most important. Experiencing this makes me think that I was not too unlucky, and I hope that someday I can win more.

Every win motivates someone to gamble more, and I am a little afraid of this because it might lead to chasing, a reason why many gamblers ruin their finances.

Hmm, I guess you will be happy... for around 15 seconds. After that, it's pretty much normal from there. You will be happy that you won several dollars, but after that, you will think of the next. Either you will stop, or you will use that winnings again to win more dollars.

As somebody that only gambles $10 per week, winning $50 is already a big thing for me, but to a point where I'm incredibly happy because at the back of my head, I will still think of the losses that I had in the past and will say "This isn't enough to cover all of my losses." It will be a different reaction if it's a million dollars though. At the end of the day, it will depend on your lifestyle, and maybe the country where you're living. For us, $50 can buy many things already, but in other countries $50 isn't enough for a family to cover a single breakfast, dinner or lunch.

If you win, you will feel the adrenaline rushing on your body hence, you will find more profits which will lead to losses in the end. I know this isn't happening to all gamblers, but it's happening. :D

I think the best here is this: instead of worrying about losses or how small the win is, just gamble with an amount you are comfortable losing. Gamblers fully understand this part about gambling but still find it very hard to accept the outcome when it is not in their favour. Left for me, a win is a win irrespective of the amount won. But trust me, other gamblers will not see things the way I see it. It is not wrong to aim higher, but having very high expectations can be disadvantageous and disappointing at times. Just do what you can handle and give yourself some peace of mind.

Yes, feeling happy is certain when a gambler succeeds in winning, that feeling of happiness will always be there when we succeed in winning even though we have forgotten about the previous defeat, but it is a fact that sometimes the greed to produce a larger amount will always come which will indirectly encourage us to continue playing blindly and that is the reason why I said above that a gambler who will be able to enjoy the results of his victory is those who are always grateful and feel sufficient with whatever amount they get.

No matter how much the amount is when I win in gambling, it will certainly make me happy, because I think positively that the victory that has been obtained that day is a stroke of luck. Even though the results of the victory are not enough to be spent on goods that are quite valuable to me, it would be better if the victory obtained could be enough to treat friends who also like gambling. For me, a little victory obtained if shared with friends is a symbol of happiness that should also be felt by friends

Winning $1 is better than losing $1, so you shouldn't be surprised that someone is celebrating winning $50. Some people have gone for months without winning even $1, rather it has been losses upon losses. Also imagine when you are almost in the zero zone and you have nothing to sustain you for that period and suddenly you win $50 from a bet. Imagine the joy that will come upon you. Sometimes it's not always in the size of the winning, but the timing that the winning came and what that winning is going to help you solve at the period of your life.

The satisfaction that comes with winning, every gambler can relate to this. The funny thing is that your losses might be more than that but at that moment you forget about it and just get carried away by your little victory. Gamblers that don't get excited when they win such amounts are either rich or greedy and that greed can make them lose everything they have won cause they'd chase more wins

Just as it is,if $50 feels good then it's worth being happy about especially to people struggling financially,it's almost a relief for them.Hard earned money like this tends to spark satisfaction because the happiness comes from the financial alignment and accomplishment and not just the money.

To Have satisfaction in gambling winnings, is not measured by how much is won, but in the individuals that win them, what that means is that, for someone with a low bankroll capability, $50 winning is already a jackpot and of massive joy for them, but for some rich guys like drake and the rest of the whales that we have in gambling today's, $50 is nothing since their vet winnings wont come in that amount due to the huge staked and bankrolls.

How much money you would be happy with would depend on your country's economy, how expensive it is to live in your country and how much money you spend on gambling. How happy you would be if you won $50. For some countries and for some people this amount is huge and they would be very happy, but for some countries or people it is a very small amount so it would not bring much happiness to them. But if he goes there just for fun and his attitude is to win and if he wins then he will definitely be happy and it will not matter to him how much money he wins. For me personally $50 is a big enough amount and I will definitely be very happy to get it.

I believe that winning money may make someone so happy but a lot depends on a situation and a point of view a person has. To a person with economic problems, or at least located in an area where every couple of dozens of dollars can pay bills or buy some kind of treat, that money can be a sincerely valuable thing or, at least, a relieved sight. It is not about the money itself but what it symbolizes an escape of stress or an opportunity to have some nice thing. Conversely, on the next hand on the other side of the table, to those who live in areas where things are more expensive, or are made to be more affluent, the aforementioned winnings may actually turn out to be a little too minimal to even start with and may be very unlife changing at all. Sure, it is relative. And then of course, the emotional thrill of victory, regardless of how large or small, will in some cases create a sense of temporary heightening that is again worth something.


I suppose that the important thing is how such wins can be implemented into the life and necessities of a person. A small victory can improve a bad day or change something and it is worth being appreciated.

If i had a winning opportunity of $50 and i got it by free, then am not going to take it for granted because to win a bet is not common, no matter how much is involved, some will as much as possible appreciates winning $10 or below, so having the winning opportunity of $50 to me is a great privilege, because with such amount won can still be use to gamble and i may win more and continue to enjoy gambling.

another thing that helps a lot is controlling your losses so if you know you're going to lose x you're not so unhappy to lose it, when your losses are uncapped and a x loss can become 100x this is much more stressful and hard to deal with
for wins I think it'll also vary from person to person, if someone is used to huge sums like winning 6 figures per trade or bet when they win 50 usd they'll probably feel nothing, or very little

Is $50 dollar really a small amount in United state? If you give $50 dollar bills to a wealthy person, he is going to appreciate it but maybe crypto profits has made it look small in our eyes. How many dollars are you going to wager before you make that amount, if you stake $10 in a 5 different bets, you will have to do it 5 good times and in that 5 times, you can't bet 5 times in a row and win $50, it's not possible. That's how big and valuable we should appreciate that amount.

Third world country will appreciate that amount of money, it will go a long way to put some food on the table. I have seen one person appreciate how his bankroll increases from $90 to $150 in 6 weeks, he made $50 on his stake account after 6 weeks of betting, that means he has won and also lose but the aggregate after plus and minus gave him that amount of money. If you are not gambling with huge amount of money, I don't think it's $50 is a small amount of money.

Everyone who comes to gambling certainly has the desire to be able to get a win, whether it is big or small in amount but what is clear is that they definitely want to win. Sometimes we are lucky to get a small win when our balance is almost gone and this becomes a point of pleasure for us who gamble I am sure quite a lot of people feel like this. Apart from that we know that everyone's ability to gamble is different in terms of finances, there are some of them who get a win of $ 50 are already happy and want to withdraw it immediately, with me myself sometimes feel that the profit with that amount is still not enough so usually I still gamble.

The same thing I do is sometimes I treat my friends because there is a point of pleasure that I feel, I really do this when I get a big enough win which is definitely more than $ 50, because in my opinion for now $ 50 is not enough just to buy food and drinks.

If there is a chance to win $50, no one will take it lightly, everyone will take it with great joy. Winning $50 is really amazing, especially for us because when we accepted gambling as entertainment, we definitely started using very small amounts of money on gambling platforms. If we can win $50 with a very small amount of money, then of course it will be a matter of great joy for us and we can definitely do something good with that $50. I can buy a lot of good things with $50 in my country because $50 is very important in my country.

I think most want to win big and won't stop until they do
that's the way a lot of people end up losing because winning big is hard and then they have small wins and end up risking too much for the big win that sometimes won't come...
does it make any sense for you?
50 usd can be a nice win but it's not life changing at all

By the way, it is an interesting idea that any win is better than a loss in any case and therefore we should feel joy for such a win. However, joy and any pleasant emotions in general are not controlled by reason and consciousness - they simply arise regardless of our desire. But nevertheless - yes, a win is better than a loss. Especially if you play for insignificant money, and 50 dollars compared to your bet is a lot of money. But at least in Russia I probably will not be able to meet such people who would be madly happy about winning 50 dollars.

A win is a plus no matter how small it is and users tend to be so excited having gotten such opportunity to win cause it's not always favourable to all. And mostly some person's winning style can prompt yours to come speedily when key into it, like a mentor of mine use to say "winning is a lifestyle so earn it" any win at all will make me extremely happy though some people would see it as an unnecessary acts but then any win is worth celebrating.

Even for people living in poor countries, winning $50 won't be life-changing.
I think that such winnings can be life-changing only when a lucky gambler first wins $50 and then immediately bets that $50 to win a huge jackpot. Sounds unrealistic, but it is theoretically possible.

That is true, not a life changing amount but who's thinking that this amount could change someone's life? Maybe a life changing perspective is what it will bring to the ones who wins it that, if they think that gambling is the way to go for them to have a better life then it will discourage them. It could be spent for a day or two for some needs but that won't be enough to look at the long term impact that it will give to someone financially. I'd be happy to win $50 with my bets especially in esports and that's gonna make me more than happy to be honest.

It is not so. Of course, you will be happy with any win. But there is serious difference between small win and big win(don`t matter what sum it would be - it different for all of us). Compare how happy you will be when you win a cup of coffee and when you win restaurant for all your family. Both times you win but emotions differs seriously.

That's very true, some people even celebrate a win that is far less than $50,  it just depends on the person that won the money. Like now, if I win $50 I will be happy, even though I have won far more than $50 before, I still don't feel unhappy about any amount won.

It was not really huge to celebrate, but many of us did. It's simply because winning is just once in a blue moon, and gamblers think that even if it were below $50, it is a blessing. If I see a gambler unhappy, even winning $100 or more won't make him change his mood.

---

Anyway, a small win makes you forget all the losses in the past. A situation where a gambler encourages themselves to gamble more and think of winning again.

Winning 50 US dollars would make me personally happy! It's not even about the specific amount of money. It's about the fact of winning. In my concept of the world, gambling is a duel with fate, a duel with chaos. Since I'm a man, I really like to win. In various life situations, it's often unclear whether you've won or lost. However, in gambling, everything is very specific. You made your bet and won, which means you're a winner. You made your bet and lost, which means you're a loser. Since I'm a man, since I'm the male of the human race, my essence is to strive for victory. One philosopher said that the main goal of a man is to collect as many toys as possible. At the same time, toys are various material and immaterial goods, including gambling winnings. Thus, winning 50 US dollars is not just a gambling win, it's a victory, it's one of those pleasures that I can get as a man, as a male.

Sure it can. I remember times when $20/month was considered a good salary where I lived. But, of course, several dozen dollars won't make you that happy if you make $500 per day. I think it's that simple. In reality, only few people make $500 per day around the world, so, most people would be happy to win 50-60 dollars, especially if the bet was under $0.50.

Also $50 means different to everyone based on their background, etc. I mean for someone who gambles small amounts, $50 can be big and make them really happy. While some high roller won't even mind claiming a bonus drop that's worth $50 because they are betting $5k every bet and don't care about the $50. So it all depends on what $50 means to you and yeah it can make some people happy and others not so much.

I personally won't be overjoyed by a $50 win but again, if I made a bet and it wins, regardless of the amount, I get excited and feel happy. That's the whole point of gambling, to predict what's gonna happen next and feel pumped if it happens.

Had it been that some of us have been satisfied with the little we should have earned from gambling, maybe this same opportunity wouldn't have been eluding us each and we may have more chances of winning small amounts than waiting for bigger ones to come without having anything at the end, some of us don't have the believe that little earnings can also turn a big one if accumulated over time, $50 can still play a number of bets.

For some gamblers who are used to betting large amounts and winning large amounts, of course there will be no satisfaction with $ 50. What must be done is to continue the game until the desired victory is achieved. If the gambler sets a time limit for playing, maybe he can save the victory, even though it is small. But if not, all that happens is the game runs out.
For gamblers who value victory, of course $ 50 is a sufficient amount to accumulate. Even if it is not possible to spend, the gambler can still use it as capital or additional capital in the next game.

Many people earn less than $50 in my country, so that amount will be a big win for this set of individuals. Winning that amount wouldn't be a big deal for me since I earn far above that monthly. But I would be happy to win $50 because it will be enough for me to sort out some pressing needs. It will be able to buy a 50kg bag of rice which can sustain my family for some time.


Some gamblers take higher risks and could turn out to be the right ot wrong choice. But for me, each time I have the option of cashing out small wins, I take it without any hesitation. However, I have respect for high risk takers.

Oh, that's deep.

Accomplishments? It came from gambling. Truly, there are those who are in deep financial problems, and they will be happy about a $50 win, but what if he actually made a bet of $25, which means he just doubled it?

I believe this kind of case depends on how much was risked and how it was played. In slots, if you bet $1 and won $50, you might not even be satisfied with it yet and would probably bet 10 more times to try your luck.
In sports, winning a x50 bet is truly a satisfying multiplier. It mostly came from parlays only, and having a winning parlay ticket with lots of picks feels good.

Winning $50 is definitely a happy moment, especially when I first placed a bet on gambling, I got a profit of $10, which will be a memorable happy moment in my life. The joy of my ten dollars, if converted into $50, would definitely be 5 times more joyful. However, in my life, I have taken very few bets where I have taken bets of very small amounts so that even if I lose, it will not have a very negative impact on me, but I have never made a profit of $50 from a single bet, which is why the experience of winning $50 would be very enjoyable for me.

remember that every month at least 1 person in the planet experiences a thing that has 1 in 1 billion chance of happening
so yes, it may be possible
but after all money is like a muscle
if you bench press 30kg you won't be able to bench 120kg the next day, it's a process
that's why many people who win the lottery end up where they were before winning after a couple years, they find a way to spend it all

Every small victory should be celebrated, as even the smallest defeats bring sadness and depression.
We should be grateful for the good things that happen to us, so i agree with you.
i am not saying we should go and celebrate, but a little hurrah never hurts.

I doubt $50 can make someone's happiest moment of life, no matter how broke they are, yes, it can definitely bring happiness, but it's different from being your happiest moment of life forever::)

I would say it has to be at least in the thousands for me to feel that way.

But the story can be different if I am keep winning $50 for every bet or atleast once whenever I decide to bet.

Exactly, we should always appreciate any amount of money that we win because when we lose, we don't feel happy. I am the kind of gambler that is always happy whenever I win be it small or big amount. However, $50 is a moderate amount for any gambler to be happy and quit gambling at that moment because I have gambled straight one month and did win anything.

The amount of a win isn't always the main source of happiness. The key is context and mindset. Sometimes $50 won't change your life, but it can remind you that luck exists and you’re still capable of winning. A “small” victory like this can help feel happier and more confident, and I'm not just talking about gambling, I mean in general in life.

Yes, indeed, such winnings can make my mood much better during the day and even for a week. Even if I manage to win $50, I will not play with them in one bet, but will try to at least divide them by 30, so that I can really feel it. In any case, it usually does not work the other way around, because a player can lose $50 at once and not even feel any emotions about it. Therefore, I have learned to enjoy any winnings, and not to be too upset when I lose. It is also worth mentioning that I do not allow myself to lose more than a certain amount per day, so this has not affected my life.

Well, I know people who are happy even if they won 10$ or less, so winning 50$ is something to cheer about  ;)

Anyway, if anyone is not happy winning 50$ or less amount, he should think that he has't lost anything and have won something. There are people who lose in gambling so he is better than many people who end up winning some amount. For me I am always happy to win any amount and that pleases me.

I’m happy on any amount of profit even if it’s 1$ or 2$ because I ended up not in loss on my game. I thinks it’s about our perspective to appreciate even the smallest win.


I believe high roller belongs to the people that will be not contented on this win since they have a huge bankroll so it’s hard to appreciate for them a small win if their goal is a huge chunk of win.

Appreciating any amount you win from casino is a sign that you are not a greedy gambler. When you don't appreciate it means that you are greedy. However, some gamblers might have lose $100 but out of luck they won $50, they will not be happy for it because they have not gained anything from it. Although instead of losing everything it is better to have some. Like that say that "half bread is better than none.

$50 in our country is an estimate minimum wage for a week in the country side. And that's surely going to give happiness to those folks that have jobs that earns them at least this amount for a week. But it's not advisable for them to gamble with such amounts because rates in the country side are very low. It doesn't makes sense for them to gamble at that and for those folks like me living in the center, this is just like a few days of meals but it's still gonna give me a lighten up for the expenses that I am paying weekly and monthly. So, that's the worth of it on me and like others, I'm happy if I win.

Yes, this is why it would be that situational because not all people are living on the same side of the world on which $50 could be that big or could be that a dust amount. It all matters about on where you do live and thats why its not shocking that people will be having that different sentiment on a certain amount on which it will be basing up on the value of it. What matter most on here is that whether you do win up bigger or smaller than that then you do know on when to cash out or make out some withdrawal at the time or moment that you do made out some win and not just that losing it back again into the casino on which this is the usual case for most people. There are those times or moments that you do become greedy on which you would be able to forget on doing up the right thing at the time that you do gamble or able to hit up such situation. What matter most on here is that you do enjoy and be happy into your gambling session rather than on becoming stressful.

It can't be the happiest day of my life because that was probably when my child was born ;) Nothing compares to that, although falling in love for the first time is pretty close.

To me $50 is nothing. I spend this much on groceries every other day, but I believe in some countries like Bangladesh where people earn $5 per day, $50 can make a huge difference.
On the side, I don't know what amount would make my day the happiest. It would have to be over $1m.

I think every win makes you happy in that moment right ? after the emotion is gone , those 50$ are not making you so happy anymore but at least you have 50$ extra which is still great.

Then depends how much 50$ is worth in your country because as I've read a lot of comments and for some 50$ is almost nothing or the normal daily spending for others but on some countries 50$ can equal a month of work.  8)

If my country could, $50 is enough to mean in my country the equivalent of 1 week's salary, so it's quite natural that winning an amount of $50 makes you happy, because of course the smaller the capital will affect the win, if you only bet a few cents, and winning $100 is certainly fun, depending on how much money we have

The conclusion I got from the statement you made is that the level of pleasure and joy of a gambler when winning depends on the amount of capital they bring and also depends on how valuable the money is in their country, I hope I am not wrong in drawing this conclusion.

If that is what you mean then I quite agree because getting a large amount with only a small capital is indeed very exciting especially if $ 50 is a very valuable amount.

When you are in this pleasant situation then my advice is to maintain a level of awareness within yourself, don't let yourself feel great, because it is not uncommon for gamblers who eventually become greedy and continue to pursue larger amounts due to being too confident after winning.

I agree with you completely that the meaning of win is different for everyone. A few dozen dollars could mean food on the table paying a bill or finally getting something they have needed for a long time for some people. Its not just about how much its also about when and where. A small win can feel like a big deal if it comes at the right time. Big numbers dont always make people happy. Constantly chasing makes you forget appreciation.

Winning is always a reason for happiness than losing. Especially in gambling where the chances of losing are higher and the only goal is to lose the money used in the game, if I win something then I will definitely be happy. If it was easy to win $50 from gambling then I might not be very happy. But money from gambling which is very difficult and the chances of losing are higher. So even if I win $10 from gambling I might be very happy. Because I got much better results than expected. In this case the amount of money may not be important.

You mean you doubt yourself if you could be happy if you win $10?

For me, I think it depends if you gamble small amount and you win 5 or 10 times of the amount you deposit. However, those who gamble daily or weekly with a $10 budget and win once, even if it is $50, are dissatisfied because it is a small amount compared to the amount they lose at the casino.
Unless you win that amount using the cashback  or free spin.

In my country, $50 is alot of money and if I win that amount, my weekend will be a bagger for me, but for some reason I may not have that luck at this time since I did  place any bet at such that can give we that winning at this time, but for me yeah I prefer to walk away happy with such an amount of winning after some few time of losing recently.

We will be happy if we win $50.

That's more worth celebrating having a loss of $50. No one celebrates the opposite way but if it's a win, it won't change the fact that it is and it's added to our wallets.  :)

The same goes for me, I'll choose to walk away happy because I've won rather than to leave with losses.

Reading the various answers, you can see that the country of origin changes the importance of the $50 win a lot.
From the human and psychological side, however, we can say that it is still a win and that it is pleasant to win, rather than lose.
They do not change your life but they are still useful, if won with a very low investment it is even better, right?
It is worth it to be happy even with little!

Of course, $50 is not the same in the US and Europe which are first world, let alone in places where monthly salaries are of that size.
There are places where people have to live on $2-3 a day, and if you do the math, that's actually $50.
So yes, it depends on the place for sure

Depending on how much my starting bankroll is, if I started with no more than $50 then I will be happy enough to take $50 profit. But if I started like with few hundreds dollar, I cant be really happy to win $50. Although in fact $50 is something that can be considered as a good amount in my country but gamblers usually use their starting bankroll/deposit as the main reference to set a target on how much they want to gain with their deposit, not based on how much is the value of the winning in their country.

I think that OP is talking not about how much percent of deposit you win but about the cost of money. We can`t understand emotions of the authors here, when they call the sum they win. But if authors will write something like "i won my monthly salary" or will add something like "$100 is medium salary in my country" it would be easy to understand how big profit for them.

It's a global comparison why those people living in first world and developed countries won't be happy with this amount. And it's a question to them when they see people being happy with small amounts. That's because the cost of living is different from both worlds and the salaries are totally far far away from each other. And losing this $50 is also fine to them but on the other side for those gamblers that earns lesser money than them, this is something big. But if the economic situation of that person is totally happy on this amount, we understand them. However, if they are also earning less, they shouldn't gamble in the first place and try to look for more ways to earn more so that this looks as a pastime to them and not something they aspire to earn with the bets they make.

Not been appreciative of winning $50 or any small amount won from the casino can come with several reasons enough for you to see and consider such person as not been greedy,  the only time you can completely say a person is greedy by not been appreciative of the little they have won from the casino game will be in a scenario whereby such persons stake as compared to the amount won is widely apart. Staking $3 - $5 and winning $50 from such amount should be appreciated enough and any lesser can be considered greedy but for someone who staked $100 or more and cashed out at $50 because they got unsure at some point,  are not greedy,  they only got less than they should have or even a case of staking $1k and winning $1050 is one which the gambler can choose not to appreciate enough and I will not consider that greed because he could have gotten more but chose to settle for that to stay safe.  And the case you mention about winning less after loosing a huge sum, all of these contributes to the reactions people who gamble portray and the reason for their actions at some point.

I guess you misunderstood what "Bitinity" meant when he said "If I started like with few hundreds dollar, I cant be really happy to win $50", because literally, the O.P just asked a basic simple question, which was "Can winning $50 make you incredibly happy?". Of which before any answer to this question must be made, then the amount that was deposited into the casino also need to be put into consideration. Because you literally don't expect someone who deposited $200 for gambling, and ended up winning just only $50 to be very excited, Unlike a user who might have deposited just only $10 and ended up winning $50. Because though $50 is quite a reasonable sum of money in my country, of which an average gambler will be happy to have won it.

Honestly, yeah, winning $50 could definitely make me really happy just if I wasn’t already losing in the days before. That’s the big but for me.
As a gambler, the emotional part isn’t just about the amount, it’s also about the timing and context. If I been on a losing streak and suddenly hit a $50 win, I probably feel like things are turning around. Even just the feeling of not losing for once is a win in itself. It gives hope, and hope feels good, also I believe it really depends on your financial and social situation. For someone who i juust trying to get by then $50 might mean groceries or a bill paid or even just a day of less stress. Where I live that $50 can still go a decent way mqybe not luxury, but definitely comfort.

It is true that if my losses are very high, I will not be very excited about winning $50. It depends on the gambler's loss. A person who has lost $500 before winning $50 will not feel any joy in winning $50. He would rather not worry about winning $50 and bet again on another for a bigger win. Even if he gains something from this victory, it will not be of any use to him, especially since he will not be mentally satisfied. But for those who don't have a lot of losses in gamble, if they win $50 on a bet, I think it can definitely be a great win for them. It will of course depend on the gamblers financial condition and mentality of the gamblers.

I like your position regarding to that scenario where gambler secure the win and not to choose to push forward, as he consider that even a small win consider as profits, instead of trying to aim for more he's been appreciative cashing out small portions of his winning from the stake that he takes.

More on how a gambler treats his winnings and how he wisely use the oppotunity even it's only a small part of his actual deposit, cashing with a win should be consider.

I understood what he said and i want to add few words from the first post:
So, i think that the thread is mostly about the real price of the sum for gambler. I understand @Bitinity and i know the difference between winning x5 of bankroll and 10% of it. But i think that thread not about it.
May be OP will correct me.

I am happy with any win, and the intensity of my emotions depends mainly on the size of the bet. If I bet $1 and won $50, I would be very happy. If my bet was $5, I would also be happy, but not as much. In my opinion, the joy of winning also depends on experience. I remember when I won $10 for the first time, I was ecstatic. Now, when I win $100, I can't experience the same emotions because I have had much bigger wins in my experience. In addition, I think that over time we get used to dopamine surges and they no longer affect us as much. Partly because of this, many gamblers, having increased their bankroll by 20-30%, continue to gamble instead of withdrawing their money.

Basically, every win is a fun moment for gamblers, but of course a bigger win will also bring more fun. Feeling happy doesn't always have to be about the amount of wins you get, sometimes a gambler also feels happy and entertained even though they have to accept defeat and their balance runs out. Enjoying the game is fun too, so it's not all about money.

I know that the average gambler will feel happy just because of winning, while they feel upset when they lose. This is normal for everyone, but if they are responsible gamblers then the end result of their gambling should not change their mood. Winning and losing in gambling is part of the game, one of them should't be the trigger for more complicated problems.

In gambling win $50 may not be worth much to those who have used big bets to win, but to those who bet low, $50 is a big win. So how much a gambler will be happy with a win will depend on his or her own gambling style. There are even some for whom a $20 win means a lot. I used to enjoy small wins. But when I win big and bet more with that winning money, I no longer find that joy in small wins as you mentioned here. But when I don't have enough  money to bet, that money gives me the same joy as a big win.

Agreed because I have this experience too, I think what happens is that the more we win, the bigger our goals get and this somewhat makes people that don't have control of their emotions to always can't stop gambling because the dopamine they get and their want for it keeps increasing. I also remember when some small amounts that I win used to impress and excite me but presently, there are some wins that I get I don't get any emotions because it has become a norm for me.

There's time what that small amounts will mean the world because it has been long I last won. Despite all this, I also think it's better we don't allow our dopamine to get to the stage that it needs more risk taking than we can handle. Everything should be moderated so that we can always be in control.and not allow the gambling to control us because that's when we get addicted.

And not just only a gamblers gambling style that is likely to determine how happy a person will be when he eventually wins $50 while gambling, but also how much that gambler might have won in the past or how much he had in his current bank account that is likely to trigger his emotions into being happy, most especially if the wagered amount was below $5 and ended up winning $50. Because though the amount may seems small to some gamblers, but there are a whole lots of people who will appreciate it. Hence, it's best people appreciate the little they can whenever they gamble, because winning is not always easy.

For me winning any amount will be happy and most importantly the win is bigger than my bet. And there is something much more important, namely the win that we get can be obtained at the end of the game and that is the real win, because there are also gamblers who are not satisfied with the wins they get and make the gambler continue to play to get another win or a bigger win and that has the potential for capital and the winnings that are obtained will potentially be lost all. So it's better to just accept the win that is obtained and just set it aside and if it happens continuously with discipline and consistency then the results will be big in the long run and that is the real win, it may not sound easy because there is a possibility that the win that is set aside is used and this is what must be trained to get used to it and if you want to gamble again you must use new capital including if you lose because every win that is obtained is very meaningful if it can be processed and also used properly.

It depends on my starting investment. If start playing only entry fees $2 and later earn $50 then happy but without any entry fees just only use free token and got $50 then feel like incredibly happy.

For me, winning any amount is a great pleasure. Because I only want entertainment for the money I use to gamble. When I win, it gives me a lot of pleasure and then I don't care how much I win. In gambling, there will be both win and loss and both will happen. That's why there is a lot of excitement in gambling. $50 is not a big deal but when I finish gambling and can come out with this amount of profit at the last moment, it will definitely make me a lot happier because I was able to keep the winnings till the end. And at the moment, the amount is not a big deal for me.

Winning those type of amounts isn't really easy, it takes random luck or multiple trials to win $5000 to $50000 In a short time but it would be a lot easier if you to staked $1000 to win $5000 or $10000 to win $50000 but only those with large pockets can take such big risks...This is the reason why I'm happy with whatever amount I win from my little stake because I don't really put my expectations that high when a place a bet

What? Nope! nobody should know when I'm winning or losing. Especially that when I only play online. You don't wanna shout out to the social media after winning $50k right? So, those things you're so afraid of will most likely not gonna happen.
What you need to be afraid of, is when you find yourself trying to chase this kind of winning, you better be allocating a lot of money to get those amount, otherwise you'll gonna get broke in no time. You better be happy of that $50 win, because aiming for the biggest reward means losing big amount of capital as well.

Winning amount would be that always reflect out on how much you had put on as your base bet on which if the amount is big then 50 bucks isnt something that you would be needing to celebrate on, but if you are a gambler who do put up some base bet or minimum and been able to multiple it to 50 bucks then it would that surely make you happy specially into those pleb gamblers who do only have that sufficient amount for them to play on. It doesnt matter on what amount that we are talking on here, the most important stuff on here is that you should be having that fun and entertainment despite on what amount that you've been that spending on. There are just that those individuals who do live into those countries on which 50 bucks isnt something that significant but if you are living into those countries on which does have that on that 3rd world or developing countries then this amount would be already that significant and just that like been said that it will be that up to you on how you would enjoy things up accordingly and not all will be having that mentality when it comes into this aspect.

The most important thing on here is that you do know on when you should be taken out that profits or winning at the time that it do happen. The most common mistake of people or gamblers is that they do become that boosted up on why they would be that continuing on doing just because they've been that becoming optimistic that they do make that money on their next rolls and thats why we do end up on having that very common scenario on which we are that losing in the end. We do know that on the time that you do win up some money on doing gambling. Amount that could make you happy is something which is more than on what you have been able to hit up in the past. If it turned out to be that more than into that level then its normal that you do become happy and when that happens then you would be that becoming optimistic that you can play up even more and made out those decisions that you should be that playing more. Its not bad to gamble as long you do know on when to get out or secure your profits. Never ever that be considerate about on taking up actions that you would be finding yourself having that potential problem later on. Its impossible that you cant be able to determine on whats wrong or right.

happiest moment in life probably not but for sure it can make them really happy
have you tried giving a big bill for a beggar?
try it
instead of giving a 1 or 2 give him a 50 once and look at his eyes
sometimes they don't care, but there are times they will jump and party

I think this probably varies from country to country as well

Whenever we had a winning opportunity in gambling, we should be happy about it, because not all the time this opportunity may come for us, I've not seen a gambler who has won and yet feels unhappy for any reason, regardless of the amount won, because they would have seen the countless of times they would have been gambling without winning, winning can also tellus more of how we should prepare for subsequent opportunities, while we learned something from the one won.

That's a good call, not to put that much expectation will give you the enjoyment since whatever the amount as long as you are winning then you'll be able to enjoy, like what you have said it's not easy to win big and not usual as well though the chance is always possible if luck permits, it's just how you take the risk and how capable you are in accepting whatever might be the outcome, a matter of how you deal with the level of satisfaction you have inside.

I had given bigger bills as charity, but that's different though. Yes it can make the happiest moment of life. Still, those who are in that situation will not likely be found in the gambling, it must be a place for someone who got money and wants to spend it that should be the cotext so we should never enable broke people to bet and win such amount that often ends up in a loss rather than a win.

A $50 win is worth celebrating if the money you staked was around $5. Although some people tend to be happy with what they have, I don’t think you can get tangible things with $50. However, in some cheaper countries, $50 might be enough to feed you for a week, if you’re eating on a budget. That means you won’t get all you want, and you won’t eat as expected.

To me, I take all wins as profit, whether small or big. But to be very honest, I will not be that excited if I won $50, unless the money I staked was $5. In that case, it would be seen as a better profit, as I got 10x my initial deposit.

But people are different. My perception about winning and profit might not be the same as others’. We all are different, and we think differently.

I don't know, but with a situation like that, it might be hard for you to get it. Usually, casinos do give bonuses to new users, but they offer more free spins. There are also those that provide requirements for minimum deposits and bets.
For gamblers who have been at the casino for a long time, you can't count on your deposit amount. Otherwise, you will never be satisfied with the $50 win you get.

If he can't count on his deposit amount, then on what should he count on? Sorry for asking this question but I am only trying to clearly understand what you mean..

Are there any other thing to count on when gambling aside our deposited amount? This is if we actually put aside luck which is a deciding factor when it comes to winning.

And again, let me say that satisfaction is the same thing as happiness and sadness, it's a choice, anyone can choose to be satisfied with any amount of money they get from gambling, or they can choose to be unsatisfied as well, same way we can choose to be happy regardless of the situations around us, or sad.

I think that even Winning less than 50 USD can make us incredibly happy because we should think that it is better to win that amount than to lose that amount, The amount doesn't change our lives but it does encourage us to continue playing intelligently and with great restraint. For me , winning that Amount is a very good thing and I think that should be the mentality of every player.

My thoughts exactly, there's a feeling that comes with winning, that satisfaction when you predict a game and you are able to win from it, this encourages you to continue gambling. Winning such an amount for me is a confidence booster, even if it's small winning gives me a little hope that perhaps I'm close to winning something huge from gambling very soon. This might just be nothing but a feeling though

Should anyone entertain the idea of not having to win, if you know exactly how you feel about not winning, then even a $50 win has its level of excitement. It might not be such that you can’t contain but having to win this money that you didn’t have to put in a lot of work but, some prediction and having your money on it sure does feel good when you win. $50 is still a win I want to get than loss.

It is so. Everybody prefer to win than to lose. But i think that a thread mostly about the price of money. When someone is crazy after $50 - for someone another it is just a standard bet. We always happy to win but to understand the real feelings of the winner it would be better to understand what such sum means for him.

A win adds up enjoyment, though there are different acceptance that a certain individual or gamblers do have, but likewise it's better to win that amount that losing it, especially to those who don't have that much amount of money, those who only got limited resources such amount already huge when losing it in gambling.

Small amount if you can do consecutives streaks each day you play, that's more enough to treat yourself..

These small winnings feed the player, give him hope that there will be even more winnings further, but to believe in it is too naive. Sometimes I observe from the side as players believe in their exclusivity, throwing money again and again, because they think that there is very little left to the huge win that will change their life. Of course, this can happen, but this will happen in such a small number of players that I would not in a hurry to enter myself in such a happy case. I just play and if I manage to win 50 bucks, I am satisfied, but I am not an immune of illusions that soon I will lose them again.

a small win could be a dopamine hit that inspires us to keep going
even though it sounds positive it could be the start of someone's ruin too
I think the big deal is thinking as much about the risks as we think about the prizes, but in a way it doesn't make us afraid to do it anyway

does it make any sense?

That's what drives the feeling of playing the most and continuing to play , however When we get in the mood and think with much more reason it is a thousand times better to win those 50 USD and Spend them big, Although to be honest I have often tried to win more and when I tried I lost everything , so the feeling is not very good.

So gamblers will not underestimate the winning they may have regardless of the amount involved, because such is of importance to them, if you would have in some cases realized the numbers of time it took you to experienced a winning opportunity, then when any of such come, it will be well appreciated by you, because gambling is more of losing than winning bets, we have to understand this and that same approach is what some are using and others are not getting it right about the actual conditions to gambling and the amount to win.

this ends up making me thing
how does it feel to win 50 usd 10 times then lose 300 usd all at once?
what about the opposite: losing 30 usd 10 times then winning 500 usd all at once?
how does it feel when we lose money and when we earn it?

they say that it's usually more painful to lose than the happiness we get earning money but I don't know, I think it may vary from person to person and maybe some don't care so much about the pain of losing it

I think it depends on how much capital you're gambling with. For example, if you gamble with $1,000 and only win $50, it certainly feels unfair and like cheating, right? However, if you only bet $10 and win $50, you'll feel happy because you've won five times your original winnings.

Yes, if a gambler is in the habit of always placing big bets, then small wins will not create much excitement for him. Similarly, for those who gamble with small bets, even small wins may seem big. It completely depends on the gambler. Personally, no matter how much I bet on gambling, if the gambling odds are not high, I do not find any joy in it. From this perspective, I definitely do not enjoy small wins much. In the case of gambling, the bigger the win, the more excitement it creates. $50 is not small for me, but if it is 5 times more the bet, I will enjoy it, but if it is several times less than the bet amount, I will not be excited about it.

This is the big thing, a gambler is happy only when he can win several times more than his capital. I completely agree with what you said. If he can win only $50 by betting with a risk of $1000, it will never make that gambler happy because the winning is very small compared to the big risk he has taken. He could have lost his entire capital with this risk. So in such a situation, that person should not be happy at all.

You can be happy only when you win more than your investment. And in fact, gambling cannot give anyone permanent profit. Here you can only win something good suddenly for a short time. And that too is not in everyone's luck. So there are very few lucky people who can be happy from gambling winnings.

This is the reason why gamblers that lose their bets and later win some parts of the amount back are still happy even though they have lost more than that. Winning comes with a kind of excitement because it's something that's hard to come by. I remember the times that I woke up to unexpected wins but these amounts were not even significant but I was still happy regardless because it's better than losing

Totally depends on how you would be that betting on and on the amount that you've been that making use of because at the time that you do gamble then it will be just that situational because the amount will be basing up on whether you are betting above that or making up some winnings which is more than that. All the time the amount will be basing up on how much you've been betting or make use of. If you do bet small and able to hit up some $50 with that amount then that would be bringing out that kind of happiness at the time that you would be able to hit up those amounts. You are the ones will be having that kind of threshold on which are the amounts that you would be considered out on getting. Speaking about into the amount then it would be that totally depending on how much you've been that spending and not all will be happy with 50 bucks win.

In regarding about happiness then it should be your main priority when you do play and not for aiming for the money. For those who are living on 3rd world country on which there are those individuals who are that happy with that amount specially when you are just that making use of that small amount and hitting up some good multiplier then it would be that make you glad.

You're talking about winning $50 just once, and that wouldn't affect me at all. If we added a few zeros to the end, it would affect me and I'd be happy. I wouldn't want to bet to win $50, but that's not my motivation, to be honest. Many gamblers naturally bet to win more. Others might interpret $50 differently; they might see it as luck, a good sign, or simply be happy with $50.

Hmm winning $50 will not only make me happy it will make me feel like a king, like do you know what it takes to win a bet? Mostly all this sport betting? Some time you will keep playing the whole month without a win and you just keep playing hoping and believing your day will come and if by God grace you won $50 and you will just over look it as a normal win ? In fact there's nothing like normal win, every single win you have cherish it because you work for it you put your brain to test to get that results so even if not for anything just celebrate that IQ that yield to such good result, like me any winning I make I celebrate it like my life depends on it talk more of winning $50 mehn I will definitely feel like a king and for more alright and more fulfilling in my IQ test.

In such way sum doesn`t matter. It is just about the result of the work, or rare luck. But we are still talking about difference what the same sum means for different people.
I always happy for any win, but there are some outstanding wins - huge sum or huge odds. And if we all understand the odd, the meaning of the sum differs for all of us.

Having to witness winnings occasionally does causes one to be excited whenever they win not minding how small it is. The unexpected wins has to be the moat underrated,  it does hits very differently, seeing a game you may have possibly left to go by because you have concluded it was not going  to be a winand you woke up to seeing it turn out a win can be very exciting and even gives you some hopes ahead not minding how unrealistic these hopes can be.

Even if is a $25 winning I will definitely appreciate it because if someone has been into gambling and see the rate at which is becoming too impossible of winning they would no that every winning is important and a thing that should be rejoice about because you have gotten or predicting it right, although some people might not be happy because of what they could have lost before winning the $50 but that shouldn't make them to still feel bad because if this little amount is to be available all the time the amount they are feeling sad about will be gradually recovered.

A bird at hand they say is worth the millions that are in the bush, we all want the millions that are in the bush but the truth is that even that one bird we already have at hand is worth giving thanks for, especially when we look around and they number of people who don't have any.

$50 is not a big amount of money that is worth throwing a party for, but it's definitely worth being happy for is we are lucky enough to gamble and win it, is half bread not better than none, what if we gamble and lose all our balance, isn't it better to have $50 instead?..

the main thing is that happiness shouldn't be attached to the outcome, regardless if you're making tons or only 50 usd
but for sure this is much easier said than done after all
we end up being affected by what happens and not everyone has the skill to be super stoic in life and when dealing with problems, money and relationships

how is it for you?

That's where we are tested, how we face good things and keep them so as not to change them for bad, if we win we must take advantage and not waste our luck, that's where I always advise that every time you win and can withdraw, then do it, casinos when they win even 1 dollar they don't give it away, they take it, if we act the same then it's not bad, it's not to withdraw 1 dollar either, but with 5-10usd it's good.

You know that we are to gamble for fun since that's the essence of gambling. This is why, if I win $50, it will make me happy and enjoy the fun to the highest, because it came as a surprise. Imagine when you are not expecting money your luck put you into profit. The feelings will be different because we are humans. However, that does not mean that you should start gambling to make profit.

Yes, but that's when they fully Understand when the house edge will Always be higher , if the people who play are clear about that I'm sure they would control themselves when they play, because they know that their money is practically at risk to possibly lose and they are open only to Having a small lucky slot to win, what would you want to Win a lot? Yes , but it's luck.

Competing with the casino is too difficult, and for most players it is impossible. I am happy with any win, even a small win is good, and a big win is doubly pleasant. Sometimes I see players showing screenshots where they managed to win several hundred, I think that if I was so lucky, then I would definitely be very happy with such a win, and small wins happen too often for us to react to them differently.

It's luck and your wise decision making when you gamble, it's more on how you acknowledge that luck and even how small the profits it indeed counts as earnings, as most of the time instead of gaining something out from the casinos gambler tends to push for more and what will happen next is they'll just bring it back and lose everything together with thier initial deposit, instead of taking money out of the casino they'll regret not to leave while they are still in positive.

My thoughts exactly, it's better to win even an amount that isn't really huge than to lose it. Losing sucks and it comes with a lot of emotional rollercoasters. Gamblers dont value small amounts of money due to greed that's why they gamble to make more profit after they win, it's important to learn how to be content with little wins as gambler, a win is a win whether it's a big or small amount, the most important thing is not being in Loss

Ordinary the casino was not programed to favour majority of the times and so it is very important you stay grateful for every win, they way you beat the odds of turning sad or emotional because of your losses which may further grow into chasing of loses and possible addiction, I also do stay grateful whenever I win because I understand the edge the casino has got over me and beating such most times can only be luck which is every reason to be grateful and keep greed far from you because  that is on its own another killer of joy and it does steal the moment from you.

As a rationalist gambler and minimize random emotional losses, of course it is better to win even a little than to lose, it is also the same as the principle of businessmen, logically if the interpretation is victory, then the conclusion of whatever amount of money we get is still in a winning condition.


This kind of situation can be avoided if you gamble with an amount you are prepared to lose. You will remain calm and not overly emotional even if you lose. Believe that the best solution to avoid becoming so emotional is to use a responsible gambling strategy. This will prevent addiction from affecting you, even when you think about chasing your losses, it won't happen.

Every winning in gambling puts a smile on the face of a gambler no matter how small but most gamblers go prefer winning big amounts because of how often they lose in gambling so winning big helps one to think less of the losses. A real gambler is never satisfied winning a small amount that's true but you see the greed in gambling I think it's part of the game and learning how to control the greedy habits safes the gambler from going bankrupt.

For some, the joy of winning is the main thing, not the amount of winning. There are many who participate in gambling only for profit, for them the main thing is not the joy of winning, but the amount of winning. I mainly participate in gambling just to pass the time and when I need a little different entertainment in between studies, I participate in gambling with a few dollars so that I don't get mentally upset even if I face losses. In this case, winning is not the important profit for me. If I calculate the win-loss equation, it will be seen that the amount of losses is more than the amount of wins, although I never take it seriously.

Actually we shouldnt be that trying out to earn money with gambling on which this would be that disrupt you on how you should be that dealing with it. On the time or moment that you do made out some decisions about dealing up with gambling and made out some deposits into those platforms then make it sure that you wouldnt be that trying out to make yourself that being optimistic that you can make some easy money. Never ever trying out to make up those kind of mentality because it would be bringing out that disappointment at the time that you would be able to experience the opposite thing on which you would be rather losing instead of winning. For some gamblers then they would be that easily make up some moving on but there are those individuals that instead of stopping they do rather continue just because they've been hoping that they can be able to make up those huge winnings.

$50 might not be that much for some people but for those who are living into those developed countries then it would be something that would be that big or something significant. Lets just that not reacting too much about into the amount because each one of us does have that different financial condition or status or on where we do live on which these amounts could be small or big.

I have learned something, when we are on a roll or good things are happening to us, we have to extend them, like in trading, but in gambling the positive streak ends quickly and we have to get out quickly before the negative streak begins which, for many, is the beginning of an addiction, but that is dictated by experience or by those who want to follow that advice.

A win is a win reason being that you had double of the initial amount you used in staking, moreso a lot of persons tend to be happy for every little win they encounter due to some factors surrouding them.So having won such a substantial amount as that one would be full of joy and excitement basically because it's something they didn't really skin to get though sometimes it may be after much loses one attain such win.

There's something about winning, it prompts a gambler to keep gambling and also makes it more exciting because you believe that it's possible to win. But if you don't control that feeling it might lead to losses because that's that what overconfidence in gambling does, most people start to think that they are experts or they have a winning strategy that can always work. Someone once said that every win is a mistake lol, winning is cool but you should be careful of the feeling that comes afterwards
