Have your winnings lured someone into gambling ?

[xSkylarx]

Since I don't share it anymore, I don't have a friend like this. But let's put it into crypto investing, I've influenced several of my friends to invest a few into crypto and I think that if I tell them that there's also a chance for them to have some and lose some with gambling, they will try it.

I also have some big wins in gambling but I am not sharing them for now because my friends are not ready for it, so I also invite them to know about trading first and later they will also decide to follow my steps in gambling, another reason that I don't want them to suffer losses from their personal assets but they can use some of the trading profits brought in for gambling.

It's gonna be step by step and let's see if they're really into it. And I'll only do that if they've shown interest but if not, then I won't be giving them hint or clue about gambling.

It's better be left to themselves and let them discover what gambling is and have their willingness to do it on their own. Because if they do that, it only means that they understand the risk they're taking.

Agreed, but mostly if they gamble because they saw your winnings and are hoping they can also win that much, it will lead to losses. People are always seeing the good sides, like the money he won, and not the downside, which is that they only know that once he won it, he had already spent a lot of money playing on it. People are only thinking one-sidedly, which is why they lose. We should first know the risk of it so that we will not expect that we will also win like others did. Though it is also best to experience it by losing so that they can learn from it, it is a hard experience since you'll be losing money.

As a gambler we see winning big as success is gambling, do you share and celebrate your winning story with friends ?

Have your winning story or celebration lured someone you know into gambling because he wants to win big like you

                                 OR

Have you ever taught or predicted a game for someone which turn out to be a win,how big was it ?

this has never happened to me, besides that I have never shared my victory story with other people, because that would make it difficult for me

those who are lured will definitely immediately ask me a lot of things and will definitely make it difficult for me to guide them. besides that, I also don't want other people to play gambling because of me, because usually, newbies don't have a good mindset in gambling

When I win big, I tell the story to my friends, but I'm always saying that it was good luck, and that there's no guarantee it will happen to anyone else, or even to me again. Even if it's poker, where luck plays, according to many, a lesser role, I'm always saying, it was because of luck that I won.

I wouldn't mind if someone started gambling because of me, but only if that person would play for relaxing and entertainment purposes. I'm never saying out loud, start gambling and you will win big too , although somewhere deep in my heart I do wish them to win big, of course.

I don't want to have that reason from them to start to gamble because of what they've seen from me. I want them to realize that gambling isn't done like that because they saw it from my winnings.

Well, it's not a secret anymore that gambling is risky and the same goes for trading as it bears with risks.

But, again, as I have said that I'll be ready to engage to them if they're the one asks me to.

Am not the kind of person that likes withholding my winnings and losses from friends. I like telling them how my betting played out cos most times we bet games together

Have your winning story or celebration lured someone you know into gambling because he wants to win big like you

I can't say cos almost the friends I share my gambling stories with are gamblers like me. We bet games within ourselves and give out match statistics to those that care to ask

For me i do not believe that gambling winnings lure anyone into gambling, what these big winnings does is that it gives people false hope, false believes that it could be them winning if they do not give up gambling; which in turns gives betting companies more money and more addicted gamblers.

It does lure someone to gambling.  People love to emulate stuff and imagine things.  If ever they heard about someone's winning they always put themselves in that person's shoes and think if it was them.  Especially when their friend is the one who won, they surely think that if they friend is able to win on that gambling, they can also win on that game.

Also, we must nurture the habit of staying away from gambling after having a winning; else you would lose all again

True but people who tasted winnings will always come back and gamble.  So it is kinda difficult to nurture that kind of habit.

I'll tell you more. Emotions that a gambler experiences while winning or losing are very similar to those of a trader. Such emotions can change the perception of the environment and in this state it is very easy to make a mistake that will lead to serious losses.

That's why I support your point of view about taking a break from gambling as it will save you not only from reckless spending but also will save your health.

Acquiring too much stress and anxiety and other emotional things could really give out some effect on someones health which we know that these things can't really only be experienced via doing gambling but also
in other things that we are doing in our lives which can potentially do make out these kind of effects which you could really say that this isnt limited on certain conditions or circumstances.
Lured out someone on the way you do bet? I dont think so because each person around me does have their own will on what they should gonna do in their lives whether
they do let someone do inspires them or would be totally independent on what they are tending to do.

Yes, probably a number of people but I did that indirectly. I'm an honest person and when they ask me what I was doing on a given day I'm not going to lie to them. Sometimes my friends ask me about my games, what I'm betting on sports wise and I tell them. I had a few situations where people gave me some money to also bet on the same match and I did that. We won a few times, we lost some other times. I've never had problems with people losing with me. They knew that I was in the same situation.

I have to tell you though that it doesn't work with all people. Don't do it with work colleagues or your superiors. You don't want to mess with people you don't know well and people you depend on. I bet only with my good friends who know me and when I know they really want this.

It is true the emotions a trader and a gambler can experiment are similar, however this should not be the case, when you are gambling the emotions should be embraced as we are gambling to have fun and to add a little bit of excitement to our lives, but when it comes to trading everything should be about what is the correct move you can make under the circumstances you are in, because if you let your emotions to take control of you during such a critical moment then it will be almost impossible to take the right decision and your capital will be at a high risk.

I totally support your attitude to luring some one into gambling. Apart from telling people about all the risks associated with gambling, we should definitely not be engaged in any form of gambling with strangers, or people we know little about, like our work colleagues.

Support? I am not sure if it is a good attitude or not because, it was like you are looking for ways to bet for free and if you lose the money of others, it won't be that heavy for you because it wasn't your own hard earned money anyway but those people will not totally feel bad because they also want this to happen at the first place.

If you will tell the truth that gambling is a risky game and you don't want them to encourage gambling then that is a different story anymore. That is a commendable move but you shouldn't have shared your winning bets on them earlier if that is your intention. In my case, this never happened in me as I secretly gamble for some reasons.

                                 OR

Have you ever taught or predicted a game for someone which turn out to be a win,how big was it ?

I don't know what winning big in your context implies but to me, anything above my previous winning is big and most times worth celebrating.
There are times I make a win of over $300 and that's usually a big win  for me.
I have predicted a game that turned out over $450 and that has been my highest win at a time but it was for a brother and I was rewarded with about $50 but I was so happy because I was the brain behind that very success, that very sucess lured alot of people to me who also wanted me predict for them and I started getting some commissions for every game I predicted and came out successfully to a win.

I could also remember a winning from my childhood friend that changed his life and that very winning was what got me into gambling till date and I can say I don't regret being in this space despite having some down times.

1.I don't have any big winnings out of gambling and sports betting. I bet mostly small amounts at low risk bets.
2.Even if I had big gambling winnings, I would never brag about my winnings. I just hate bragging in general. Maybe I'm superstitious and I think that bragging would make my luck go away. Even if you win big, you have to stay humble.
3.I wouldn't recommend gambling to anyone in my social circle. I don't know which person might fall down into gambling addiction. Some people simply don't have a high level of self-control. I don't want to blame myself for influencing other people into losing their money.

[ThemePen]

I didn't tell to anyone if I win big. And don't be excited much because this is the part of life. And if loose I didn't get sad much. If effect little bit but not much.

And I don't tell to anyone because if they enter and lose they can blame to me.

I'm a person who doesn't really like to share my winnings on social media or people around me, honestly because I don't want them to know I'm gambling and win big even though they actually know I'm gambling, I like to celebrate every gambling win to my friends but never told them that it was the result of winning gambling but from my salary bonus, I don't want my friends to play gambling and make them uncontrollable spending their money in the casino, so that's the reason I hide it as an ordinary gambler who just just looking for fun, not looking for big wins

[yazher]

I saw a movie where they intendedly to make someone win in public to promote their gambling games because that's how it is when people see that there's a high winning percentage, people will flock to try it and some of them will remain until he lost all of his money from it. I mean if we look at how the advertisement all around on Television and Social media, we see that they always advertise good things to promote their business even though it has dark secrets. No one will advertise its dark side and that's how it works in gambling as well we are lucky to have some people that are willing to share their stories about their losses for us to take some heed and lessons as well.

[Peanutswar]

I just play gambling on my own actually at the very first thing it is really doubt to play gambling because I know how does money really important to me to my daily needs and I don't have a guts before to play gambling because I know I'm not lucky with these games but once I tried playing and give me a good shot that's the time I treat my self and friends with this winnings even though it is just a small amount of winning not like a hundred thousand dollars still it is a winning to celebrate and enjoy, but of course I didn't play again that time because I know not all the time gambling can give me a huge amount of winnings.

You've done your best not to tell anyone if you won big because that could make them tempted to follow you and there's a good chance they'll ask what they should do before starting to bet. This will also tempt them to place bigger bets because they see the amount of winning money you get so they will want to get it too. But if they lose, they might blame you because you showed them your winnings when you didn't mean to tease them. We'd better keep it to ourselves because we don't know how strong they are in holding themselves back from being tempted to see the winning money we get.

That's also what I'm scared about.

If someone is enticed because of my shared stories to them, I'm feeling much obliged of giving them a warning and it's like they're my cargo which shouldn't be.

I'm done with all of encouraging and luring people into gambling and other risk taking activities. I've been blamed a couple of times and I didn't felt good when that happened.
