Will you be influenced by your favourite celebrity?

[Cookdata]

Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game?

I am bringing up this because a popular Canadian musician Drake posted the games he played today on Stake,

Many of his fans who are into gambling as well, may have played same game without thinking. As it turns out, the game did not go as predicted for him and his bet lost.

A celebrity is just a regular guy who is more famous than I am, why should I have believed his predictions because he said so? I am wagering with my own money, not any free money, it would be silly for me to do so. These are not the regular types of minor leagues or matches one will assume he may fix since the amount he bet is eye-catching, this is Premier League we are talking about and also one of the greatest Spanish Leagues(El Clasico), so anything you don't expect may happen.

Arsenal was a sure bet that they would win, if not for the technical problems they encountered, they would have defeated Leeds United more by a large margin of goals but why bet on El Clasico and think Barcelona is going to win when Real Madrid is also prepared and even the records show that Madrid has the highest winnings? Maybe the influence of a fan affected him and waste money.

Celebrities can be well known and they can influence a lot of things, but they also are the ones that do mislead people, not kind of person like me they misled but people that have little knowledge and no experience about something. Just like in gambling, anyone that just go for Drake's prediction without making analyses of his own is just a fool and such person can not have good gambling strategies. I was very surprised that Barcelona can be chosen to win Real Madrid when Real Madrid is not bad at all while playing and it is Real Madrid's home.

OP, I have watched all Drake's streaming sessions on Stake.com and he has always lost all of his bankroll at the end. The Millions he is losing ...is but a drop in an ocean of the money he is making from his career. (Like you setting aside say 1% of your Net income for gambling as an entertainment budget) 

Drake just love to repeat the same pattern of numbers in Roulette and he stays on those patterns, even after a lot of losses. (His favorite number looks to be 11)

I would not follow his example, because he has millions to waste on gambling ....but you might find some useful strategies on Youtube that might help you to extend your playing time. 

That's good to know. I have never been influenced by Drake's bets and after reading your post I must have done everything right. In my view, a celebrity is not a good advisor for a bet. He's not an expert on betting, just someone who bets for fun.

I'll never start listening to celebrity like that either. That would take the fun out of me and afterwards, if I lost, I would be annoyed about it.

Almost all of those who responded to this topic do not want to be influenced by a celebrity when it comes to their own money to be used for gambling

Definitely, what do you expect? celebrities are there enjoying their weekly pay by the various sport organizations and that does make a drop of one penny to us, we would rather still go out there and oay for their viewing on live marches, I think taking a step needs enough calculations and reasonings before if will end up on a regret, these celebrities been talked about have nothing different from us than fame in their field of proficiency.

And I don't think celebrities care about us gamblers on gambling platforms
of cryptocurrency.

I rarely come across a football or any other sport celebrity on charity mission, they don't usually help or give back to the community that birth through thier career path, most of them don't even gambles, some do worse things that you could ever attempted doing and after their season of fame ends with their signed contracts, they become useless and irrelevant to the world except for those that has helped humanity during their pick of fame.

Perhaps I would be interested to hear the opinion of a celebrity on an event that interests me, but only to listen to his opinion. In fact, it is enough to listen to a few dozen of his forecasts to understand how good he is at this. But in any case, I will make the decision myself, so what impact it will not have on me. And if I see that his predictions are bad, then I will no longer watch him, because there will be no point in this. I am responsible for my bets and I risk my own money, so I do not listen much to other people's opinions.

Depends on the background of celebrity since if they have experience and known to be a example gambler then maybe he's advices given is valid. But if the celebrity doesn't know about what he do and just randomly promote some platform without even thinking then I guess I will never believe them since for sure there main intention money and all they made is for their personal gain only.

The only person, whos advices I will take into consideration and listen fully are my parents. Parents are the only influencers a person should listen to. All other people are either fake, or get kind of profit for themselves when they suggest or advertise something, rare person does something for free. Parents will never want anything bad for their kid. With Drake as an example from first post - he is paid by stake. Even if his bet looses, I am 200% sure stake will pay it back. Definition of word celebrity - famous person, usually a person whos is connected with acting. I would not trust someone who is good at acting, as it is impossible to tell his true motives.

[ShowOff]

I shouldn't be influenced by any games that other people play including famous artists. Of course I have to make my own decision to choose which game I want and most importantly based on my own analysis. For example in El Clasico, I think the correct bet is Real Madrid win because Barcelona are not good at defending.

So basically they won't influence me about the game selection, but it's possible that the choices could be the same if I was really sure about it and certainly not with their influence.

I absolutely agree with you. Gambling or betting gives real emotions only when we make our own decisions. I have followed someone else's betting advice several times in my life and have been disappointed in the outcome of most of these matches. In my opinion it is more interesting to analyze the result of a match by yourself and if the analysis is done correctly, this bet will bring me much more good emotions than I would bet on someone else's advice.

Yeah, at times when we go with the bets against the odds and winning will be really enjoyable than the winning amount. This means, based on the prediction specific team have low odds. The opponent will be having higher odds, which shows the winning chance of the respective team is low.

Usually good celebrities are endorsing only good teams, and that's why many got hyped because of that promotions.
I always bet with my own analysis, I can't find any reason to rely on someone though I can admit that those celebrities affects my decision sometimes, but I still make sure to have some analysis, betting is indeed more fun if you understand the sports and you bet with your favorite team. Just bet carefully, know where to put your money safely.

It's hard to rely our personal gambling decisions on the suggestions and promotions of famous celebrities and influencers even if they're our favorites. It's better to have our own analysis and critical thinking about our gambling moves and choices. Most of them are being paid to promote sites but that doesn't mean that their promotions are always applicable to us.

And you're right dude unless we also like the games he's promoting. But even so, at the end of the day, it's still our money that we will lose, not a celebrity.

I think it's high time we differentiated between a celebrity and a role model. As for me, there is nothing a celebrity would do that would entice me, 'I am just me.' But for a role model, you might be caught unaware if they are engaging in gambling and you care to watch their lifestyles more often. One day you might want to give it a try.

Regardless of what influences you, one should be careful of influencers, 'don't smell what you don't want to eat.' If you do, you might not know the time what you dislike will be your usual habit.

It was a good attempt for sure and I cannot really say whether if it is a good idea or not to follow these famous celebrities who bet huge amounts and gamble regularly just like Drake because as a gambler, betting which team, fighter or player is our sole responsibility. What I'm trying to say is we cannot really put our fate in their hands just because of their status, we should weigh the options and possibilities first while comparing our bets to theirs before putting our final decision. Just like what the OP have said, people followed Drake's bet without thinking twice which led them to losses.

Depends on how great is your favorite celebrity in sports betting, if he do it solely for endorsement purpose because of he is a brand ambassador of a bookie, I have to say it is a mistake if you follow his bet.
But if he is doing it because he is also a professional sports bettor with a great experience, it is fine to follow his bets.
I myself prefer to bet with my own prediction and analysis than following others because it is more challenging when I bet with my own prediction.

In general, some basic skills are required in sports betting. If not, the chances of winning the bet are slightly reduced. Both luck and skill are required. If one's favorite celebrity is betting on a game, some fans will prefer to bet on the same site. Again many will give importance to his own analysis. It basically depends on the personal preference of the gambler.

Maybe. It wouldn’t hurt. To give an example, I started wanting to promote stake.com after I saw some of my favorite influencers doing the same. I guess it made me feel sort of cool to be on the same team as them, even if my paychecks were considerably lower. Not to mention it also lends credibility to the operation to see someone you respect showing that they trust them.

But I see celebrities always make bets because they are bookie ambassadors so I guess it's not good even I never follow him even though he is a professional in sports betting if still in bookie ambassador.

And it's true that the skill we have to have in predicting it is much better and challenging I prefer what I believe in myself than seeing celebrities who do it.
For me it remains a big mistake if the bet follows someone else.

Actually I can be influenced in some of his life style but not in gambling. He is a professional in singing, not in gambling, this will make me not play the same game with my favorite celebrity because I know that I might lose. I know of a case that this guy is always forecasting numbers and winning, also predicting matches too,so every morning so many persons will go to him to forecast the day game for them or they play same game. It was working initially that I was also tempted to get numbers and scores him but I said no,that day his prediction was wrong and so many persons lost with him. To my surprise the game turned around to favour me so since then I learnt to always believe in yourself not someone when gambling because our lucks differ.

When you are fan of someone and then they do really make out some bets then its not really that bad to go along or would really be betting on the same option as long it do get in line on what you had analyzed too.
Its true that it is really  that better if you do really make bets on your own which it wont really be leaving out negative thoughts and impressions which you might really be regretting if the outcome would be a lose bet.
Never get yourself that influenced nor been affected the way you do bet just because your favorite celebrity had really made out some bets too.Always stick with your own ways and never
be that dependent and also, making out your own bets is more entertaining and enjoyable compared into those situations which you arent the ones who do make up some choosing.
