Social aspect of gambling - do you ever gamble with a friend?

[emberbekas]

In the past I played card games with some of my friends and I made some new friendship with other people too. The relationships that go through gambling, make a lot people knowing me. And it has an impact on my life. Most people who's looking for me outside gambling activity, definitely because of financial problems. And of course it bothers me and I slowly managed to distance myself from them.

Yeah me too, only if it's a private game with friends and paying poker or some other card game. Though I don't play with them in the casinos as there is not really any point in bring friends there. Well, I don't go to physical casinos anyway. I just play online in the comforts of my own home. That's totally better than going to dusty and smoky casinos.

It doesn't help my social life and I never made any friend while gambling, but I usually share my thoughts about gambling with some people and they share their thoughts with me. We usually tried to find good methods to gamble, but bever had success on it, so we gave up. I believe gambling can help others in social aspect, but it wasn't my case.

Hi guys!
Many people find gambling a bad habit because of many various reasons. One of them is the fact that gambling is considered to be an asocial activity. But are they right? Do you really think that gambling is making you asocial? Or it's the right opposite? Have you ever find new friends while or thanks to gambling? Do you ever gamble with someone else? Would you take part in some kind of a team based tournament? Or can you think about anything that could make gambling more social activity? Maybe we can change this with your help!
Let us know what do you think about that

I like gambling alone and probably will do same in future. i don't like to gamble when my friends are around, i don't want them to know how much i lost/have/won.

I only gambled online and I never had met a new friend because of gambling as never tried it face-to-face even with an old or childhood friend because they are all good at playing cards while I am an innocent dead kid when it comes to card games . I am not even looking forward to play with someone else because it only makes me feeling uncomfortable

[molsewid]

Gambling with friend is the most and they best part of gambling when you're with your best friend trying all shit gambling and loosing his money also your money i can't believed that this long enough we manage to win sometimes and no matter what happens and what will be the result is we still keep the friendship between us if someone win we share that profit in to split two.

I used to do it in online poker, it's great to do a trick to share card info and make a conspiracy with friends. About our profits get a decent result and divided according to the percentage of income. But that is the past where we all have been busy with each other's lives, if examined again this is very fun because not only think about income, but friendship and solid team work.

No I don't want to play gambling with my friend some of them are so annoying when it comes with gamble you can't please them to stop annoying you so that you can concentrate but not every time you will tell them to stop that time they will make more annoy you i always play alone i also do online gambling.

[bajing]

I've gambled together with my friends but honestly I like to gamble alone because when playing gambling alone can make me more concentrate and calm. It's different when you play with a friend that we do is make a prediction together and in my opinion it will make you not concentrate for gambling.

[marcuslong]

I never try to gamble with my friend even they always inviting me to go with them in casino friend is always cost trouble when it comes with money i don't trust my friends with money maybe in foods yes, i always in solo flight when i do gambling no one will teach you what to do so you can do what ever you want and no one ask for a loan when they lose there money.

I never gamble with myfriends because gambling is a bad activity. so I figured if anyone knows that you are gambling they will probably assume that you are bad impact for them and better to be anonym if gambling.

Yeah. I experience that too. My officemate caught me gambling in my mobile on our break time and now he keep accusing me that I'm always gamble during work but    I never did that. My point is once people know you are a gambler, they will think that you are not a good influence to them.

[OshiHugo]

Do you gamble on line as well? for example while calling on skype, sharing tips, thoughts etc?

I have ever gamble with my brother in the past and we exchange tips (sports betting), even discussed about the upcoming match.
We gamble by meeting, not use a medium like skype.

There are countries where gambling is illegal and people who gamble are considered as sinners. What I don’t understand is, if gambling is illegal in a specific country then why is it that most of the gamblers or people who goes into five star rated casinos are politicians.

It is true that gambling can be used for socializing but crab-mentality makes playing to appeal badly in public. Those people should realize that gambling is fun and very exciting and not all people who gamble are bad. Not all gamblers plays for money but sometimes for fun and for relaxation. I guessed changing how other people thinks about gamblers is too late now.

[olushakes]

For me, I prefer to gamble alone because the calibre of friends that j have are couple of guys that believe gambling is immoral to their way of life and by so they get to judge me  based on my own moral conviction so I do my gambling in the comfort of my room and play online when I win I rejoice when I lose, I just bear the losses alone and move on to something else. But when I have money, they get to ask me to borrow then.

Once they knew that we would do gamble when we are free or in office time. You give any justification they won't listen, and they spread this news slowly entire floor. This is common in many countries. Only in few countries, people don't care for this gambling, but in other countries, people take this gambling very seriously. You play gambling to get fun or just for relaxation, but they think you will play for making easy money. Changing this kind of people mind set is hard. So alone gambling is good.

After the revolution of online gambling with the help of bitcoin payment system, the concept of social gambling in real casino is no more existing in my opinion as per the trends in my country.

With online gambling I never need to worry about who is playing against me and visiting real casinos are becoming something different activity for the need of finding fun we need to do. I just gamble with the convenient of staying within my home and finding more entertainment than engaging with my friends. What I feel about present trend of gambling is the social gambling is no more existing due to online gambling.

Enjoying gambling is possible within a room and without any friends. I believe there will be no point of social aspects with online gambling as most of the online games are available with hvp mode. There could be social gambling will be still possible in real casino, but it is complete out of my reach.

and that's the difference between online games and a casino based games as it will give you a lots of enjoyment when playing together with your closes
friends as you all enjoy the luxury of betting together and trying to win together with high hope to aim decent winnings.
