A Nigerian Man Won $51,000 in Sports Betting With a Bet of Just $1.072

[rodskee]

Look at the man here, all the bets placed on that day did not cut, all enter and he was in the football hall watching match when he checked his phone and saw the bets slip and he jumped up in the hall and show the games to his friends and all of them jubilated with him. see the crowd the guy pulled that day.

That is why gambling is not all about how much one used. This boy just used $1 to win this huge amount. Gambling is all about luck, when the luck fall on you that day, then your day is blessed and you go home with shining face and smiling face. If you see the girls that rushed this guy that day, you won't believed, And funniest part of it was that the boy's Master (his Oga), said the boy should give him 8 millions or of the 38ms

Luck will come to those who deserves this, Imagine how many of us has this opportunity ? this is at least once i every million?? meaning that we will be eager to win but will not come.

so congrats to those who keeps winning while we are mostly losing 

In some parts of the world $50k means nothing. So whether you talk about your winnings or not make no difference. If that Nigerian man still lives in Africa, then yes he should keep his mouth shut because African countries are not the richest countries in the world and the crime rate in those countries are pretty terrible. In the US though, many people make $50k in 6-7 months it is not a big deal at all. Nobody will care or murder you for that money.

What have had made the man to let the man to talk about is victory could be too much excitement,  who knows how long he has been playing gambling but couldn't not win. Sometimes too much excitement can make one to over react,  expecially when the money is too big for some people to afford.

the objective here mate is His safety and His funds , becuase we will only win once like this and we must secure the funds and keep it safer for long term using.

The funny thing of the story is that guy celebrated his win by salat because he is religious and a muslim, the problem is islam forbids betting or gambling on anyway (strict rules in islam) just like ignoring that and doing something bad in islam’s principes. Anyway this guy is really lucky to win such a prise  with a very small amount he risked, it’s a very good odd though and also im wondering  which game  did he play or bet on

Christians also do not like gambling, if a Christian plays bet is like the person has backslide from his faith. And other Christ would see the person who gamble as person that is not yet born again.

There is no betting but buying raffle tickets is allowed    

And as the guy who won the odd. I believed the amount he  won might convert some Muslims to test betting. Truthfully it is not good for a strong believer of a particular religion to play gambling. Because is bad , when you are addited to gambling, and do have any to gamble again in the process of gambling, you might used your wife, children or other house properties that are valuable bro you as gambling. And that is bad.

A true strong believer will never ever break the code and rules of his religion.  Those who don't follow their religious doctrine or always do things that is not allowed in their doctrine is a half-baked believer and is there just to meet the need to belong.  

the objective here mate is His safety and His funds , becuase we will only win once like this and we must secure the funds and keep it safer for long term using.

I agree, the main topic is about keeping a low profile when a huge amount of money is won.  Keeping it secret will save us from all annoying and dangerous things.  Just read the article, you can see how annoying it is when everyone in your surrounding keeps following you everywhere you go because you had won a huge amount of money.  I think the only benefit is being popular among girls since the guy had been followed by ladies when the news about his winnings spreads  

[clickerz]

Its not a subject I would debate too long as its ultimately upto the individual, like Christianity and the majority of other faiths there are varying interpretations of the main body to that belief system.  Some places its considered ok and some it would be illegal but I think everywhere excessive gambling with no control that leads to ruin is always considered a total negative to be avoided like many other activities that can turn negative if overdone.
  This man took a small risk, I believe thats the correct way to do it just an idle interest where he hope to guess correct on a small amount risked regardless of religion thats probably the best way to play a game.

I agree it's a lowsrisk, and he's trying his luck. Habitual betting or being addicted to it is a different thing. He is extremely lucky to won that huge amount of money. Regardless of religious affiliations, I think excessive or becoming addicted to gambling is bad. As long it did not affect his finances and life style, I think it is understandable.

I watched the video and I was impressed with the way he first went to perform salat the moment he realized the last game went as he predicted. What I have understood with gambling and religion by African countries is different from the way Arabs that spread the religion to them. Despite when Islam forbid gambling, they do their thing and used the money to take care of their self and personally, I don’t see why it is forbidden because I don’t view as if they are taking someone’s money. It’s a condition that must be met with a risk and once it is met, you will take your money freely but what do I know. I’m happy for that boy, this kind of win games are actually rare and I hope he use the money for good.

It is called right decision at the right time - backed by the luck
This man is so lucky to have gained such a huge success - this happens to a very few people - congrats to him may he spend wisely

Lol even how you decide in gambling but luck will not be close to you , never that will come your way , even experienced gamblers fails because they think it is the right decision and right timing but never that have a luck.

I know a guy whonhave his life turn around with just one ticketbandbthis change everything about him, for security and privacy sake he relocated to another region and also hard his family relocate with him. Some gambers can be very lucky bit not always .

Gambling is like investing in cryptocurrency anyone who is doing both supposed to know that they are kind of things that work with luck, because these things does not work ordinarily to somebody so you must have the luck I did not everybody has you said that is opportune to have such luck to win a bet that will change it life and make it to do what is an expected two people to do so gambling is good to do but it's not at any point or being addicted into it

investing in crypto is not luck based , it is knowledge and understanding of the market that will make you earn from your investment.

I think it's different because gambling will give you losses and can be overwhelming if we don't realize when it's time to stop. While investing in cryptocurrencies is not a gamble because if you choose the right project, you will not experience a loss and can even turn a losing position into a profit if the market reverses direction. And investing in cryptocurrencies is not just a matter of luck but an analysis behind that investment. And the guy was very lucky to get a big prize using only $1.

and there are fewer losing chance than Winning .

Investing is always a game of Mind and strategy while in gambling is a combination of strategy and LUCK.


these differentiate  the two.


and I I am to choose? I will keep in investing and will gamble in lesser chance.

but the way he celebrated? it looks like he is truly very happy about that win and don't know if how much he had lost before winning this.

but truly this is an expensive celebration that he should have considered controlling , life does not stops here  instead there are so much in future to face

I watched the video and I was impressed with the way he first went to perform salat the moment he realized the last game went as he predicted. What I have understood with gambling and religion by African countries is different from the way Arabs that spread the religion to them. Despite when Islam forbid gambling, they do their thing and used the money to take care of their self and personally, I don’t see why it is forbidden because I don’t view as if they are taking someone’s money. It’s a condition that must be met with a risk and once it is met, you will take your money freely but what do I know. I’m happy for that boy, this kind of win games are actually rare and I hope he use the money for good.

Well I'm not really judging anyone. After all everyone is free but on islam gambling is forbiden with all its games and ways small amount or big amount and wather you did salat or not in fact you will get more judges if you do it in name of allah. Because that's will be lying and trying to cover that. At the same time we can't lie to ourselves that gambling has more bad things than good things. First most of people are losing their money. Gambling is so harmful in many ways that destroys good people and lead to addiction. Destroys families after wasting much money on it and can lead to other serious issues like alchol and drugs. You may say it's just for some people i will say we are all just taking a risk.

I don't know what you mean by salat. Is it the act of tithe payment? That means after the lucky gambler won the gamble he proceeded to the mosque to pay tithe. If Islam forbids gambling, that means they will not recieve the tithe that will be paid. If they do it will be total blasphemy in thr part of Islam and also in the part of the gambler. So many religions don't support gambling but their faithfuls end up gambling against what the religion teaches them.

Yes, it is better to choose to invest instead of betting because it can provide better results, namely profits in the future. Maybe by playing gambling, we can also get a win, but the chances will not be greater than defeat. And I agree to invest or bet on an amount we can lose.

But from that story, we can learn that if we get a big win, we have to hide it from the public and not even tell it. That's to avoid overexcitement and may make us feel uncomfortable.

- I do not believe here that gambling is knowledge. Because in gambling, every gambler who wins is based on strategy and luck, because no matter how good the strategy is, if there is no luck, you will lose and still lose in the end.

Many gamblers have experienced winning in the beginning and losing in the end, so if this is knowledge, I wish there was a course on this matter to study, but there is none. This is just my opinion and view on this matter only.

I know a guy whonhave his life turn around with just one ticketbandbthis change everything about him, for security and privacy sake he relocated to another region and also hard his family relocate with him. Some gambers can be very lucky bit not always .

Well this is a very good decision, if he moved and somehow got disconnected he did something excellent, I think that with money a person can afford that luxury and probably can do a lot, now the bolt could have given him a fortune, but it is up to him to continue having that fortune, one of the ways is with investment, and it can be in gold, real estate, whatever, but when he moves and takes his whole family, he must always make sure he has a lot of money to be able to answer, I think that is something that should be taken into account, and I think that if he did it, it is because he has a very good plan.



Well, the only thing I can say in this type of case is that he claims me for the Nigerian, I like it when a person wins and if he wins big I like him more, however I have a belief in context, many people in the world do not do these things it makes them happy and they don't feel happy when someone is doing well, on the contrary, they get angry or say they don't deserve it, being yhumano is sometimes like that, what causes them is addiction, however I consider that a person when he wins like this, if he must share it, but try to do it here in the forum under the pseudonym of a user to avoid being searched for, detected and thieves after him.

But from that story, we can learn that if we get a big win, we have to hide it from the public and not even tell it. That's to avoid overexcitement and may make us feel uncomfortable.

that will save us from everything , from spending to being target of bad element ..

Hope that one day we will be like what the man in this thread experienced , and we will be very happy and proud.

[worldofcoins]

Yeah, it's a huge win.

And I do agree that if you win big, you just need to shut up and don't tell anyone, I have read a lot of news of people winning lottery and telling the whole neighbourhood that the next day people are lining up to his house to ask for help and monetary assistance. i mean it's not that bad to help others but what if you can't help them all? And then there are relatives that you suddenly shows up to your door as well for money. And again, you can't please everyone, at certain point there will be people that are going to be envious of you.

Indeed it's a huge winning amount, & of course, his luck played a fundamental role in his winning. But what I believe is that such winning should be kept secret due to security concerns. This may attract the criminally minded person to lose all the money for their criminal activities.
Recently it happened in my neighborhood where a person had a huge amount that he won via a prize bond scheme but got robbed in a house trespassing robbery activity as his neighbors were aware of his winnings.

You can justify his actions, after all we all have sin in one way or the other which is even subjective to religion and individual but personally, I feel this is better than stealing and the player making salat is just his ways of appreciating God for a successful winning even when he knows that gambling is haram. Either ways, he is a millionaire in Naira and if properly invest the money, he will be living more of standard life.

First most of people are losing their money. Gambling is so harmful in many ways that destroys good people and lead to addiction. Destroys families after wasting much money on it and can lead to other serious issues like alchol and drugs. You may say it's just for some people i will say we are all just taking a risk.

You are very funny, you know right!
Gambling takes and give and nobody force you to play, it’s for entertainment and not an avenue to make riches but if you are lucky, you may become one and if you prioritize rich as aim in gambling, you will lose all you have, nobody is forcing it on anyone and nobody force you to register.

We must be able to avoid unnecessary things for our sake because we also have to be responsible for our own lives. By being able to choose priorities, we will not celebrate too much because we are more concerned with other things that we need and not spending money on things that are not necessary.

But from that story, we can learn that if we get a big win, we have to hide it from the public and not even tell it. That's to avoid overexcitement and may make us feel uncomfortable.

To get like that man, we can try it but remember that gambling is not a place to make money. We should look for money from other places so that we can have the opportunity to collect a lot of money. That would be much more worth doing than taking the risk of playing a gamble that could cost us a big loss.

Gambling is an addiction that can destroy a person or mankind. We have seen many people who have become addicted to this gambling game and are totally destroyed. At one time they had a very good situation, but because of this gambling addiction, they became a complete ruin.  They lose gambling and get addicted to various drugs. Gambling not only destroys you in one way but also destroys you in many ways. Therefore, do not give too much shelter to this gambling and always strive towards the good. And for this reason, gambling is completely forbidden in Islam. The reason it is completely haram is that people go to the path of destruction from here.

Gambling is mostly luck base of course but there are Poker Schools operated in some part of the world meaning this is something we can call Knowledge mate but you are also correct and i agree , gambling cannot be a knowledgeable place where we can be assure of profit instead see some place to earn and never into gambling.

We need to be as discreet as possible in matters involving money, many people simply do not believe this is something which actually happens or at least that this is not going to happen to them.

But we know the truth, there are many people out there which are looking for any potential victims, and if they find out you won money at the casino or invested in cryptocurrencies then you will become a target for those people, and in the worst case scenario you could lose way more than your money.
