Gambling with normal games

[Wete]

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

[jrrsparkles]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

But then we dink it together anyway.

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

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

[izanagi narukami]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[tabas]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[Indamuck]

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

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

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

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

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