What is your earliest Gambling Story?

What's a good gambling story that you'd like to share? Hit the comments section! Thanks guys.

Don't really remember old stories about good experiences in gambling, but I will tell you the latest, namely in December when I can get quite positive results several times in slot games and from sportbetting, the initial goal is just to get a Christmas giveaway but can get more but of course things like this will not always be obtained because gambling will always be about winning or losing

I can't really remember well what my age was at that time, but my first ever gamble was in a carnival (except for those friendly betting games in school when we were children). I remember playing the color cube game, in which you need to bet on a certain color, and if those color cubes are the same color you bet on, you will double your money. It was fun at first as I was winning, but later on I lost. It was so addicting to me that every after school I would go there to gamble. After a few weeks, they are gone as they need to transfer to another place, which forced me to stop playing.

I laughed when I read about your initial experience of getting to know about gambling because it was the same as me who first started getting to know about gambling when I was still in school and it was not appropriate to gamble.
However, because of an invitation from some of my friends to join and watch them play gambling, I became curious so I tried to do it too.
From there I started to like gambling and over time there were more and more types of gambling that I knew about until I tried them all.
However, at that time gambling was still face-to-face. I and some friends were not familiar with online gambling platforms and we kept playing until we got to know online gambling and were really addicted to playing online gambling until now.

My earliest gambling story was many years ago I think I was 20 years old. I traveled from the countryside to the city to visit my uncle.
It was on a Friday and he wanted to show me around town,we visited some very nice places, and then ended up at a pub with a slot machine. Prior to this time I had only seen slot machines in the television but seeing it in real life made me curious and I wanted to try it out.
 We talked to the attendant and I play the slot all I can remember was winning about $10. It didn't matter what mattered was that I had satisfied my curiosity. I would later go on to seek out stores with slot machines when I got on campus as an undergraduate student.

Mine is with the old friends during my teenage days too that I've just seen gambling and playing on a table with a friendly poker game. And that all started or that's the oldest that I can remember where gambling of mine has been formed.

It's like that I were influenced by them and then the vibe has been shared until I am the one that has developed the urge of knowing more other games and learning them how to be played.

Same with mine too. We were in elementary years back then when we used to play poker game with my cousins but there was no money bet that time. Once you lose, we will snap on your fingers until you feel the pain. But when we reach teenage years, that’s when the time we start betting on poker but just a very small amount of money left from our school pocket. Maybe that was my first time to gamble and from then on, I have developed my gambling interest and now, I am already gambling in selected casinos of my choice.

My first gambling story was playing cards which is pretty normal in my country especially during the funeral wake.
You'll see a lot of minors here playing with cards and the Bingo, this has been part of our culture and I guess many started their gambling journey with this as well  without realizing the possible risk of getting exposed that early. I can say that I still manage to control myself and be more responsible, gambling is fund if you are playing with your friends but more risky if you do this alone without any control.

This reminds me of the old time when my friend and I will team up to gamble with someone that is not a friend and using all possible means to make sure the person lose. I do not gamble with friends but I gamble with people that are not my friend and I which to win and spend their money. But it is now the days that we can visit casino or gamble online, it is more of fun to be with my friends, gambling together at times, supporting one another to stake a better match or game.

The environment I grew up from,influenced me a lot,I started gambling on dice since I was in high school. After school hours,we will wait behind or during break time,we will go to an isolated area in the school premises to roll dice.

I did this for sometimes before,I realized that dice is a fast money taker and I switched over to playing poker. I learn poker from my uncle who is a core gambler,in the beginning,it was fun and before I knew it,I started gambling on other games. Video games was the one we gamble most time after I was through with high school because I was so addicted to video games.

Mime was during my elementary days. I was in 4th grade at that time and my classmate introduced gambling to me. She brought me to a local carnival that offers color games and told me that I could have my money doubled or trippled. I was convinced and felt really excited so I bet using my fare allowance. At first, I was hesitant but since she has shown me how the game works, I felt really excited though my hands were shaking before because I already know that what we were doing was gambling and my mom will surely get mad at me. I bet using my food and fare allowance and lost all of it. I was so upset and cried hard. I haven't had any lunch at that time and went home on foot. That was the first lesson that I experienced. Not to bet the funds that we can't afford to lose. I have never gone to the carnival with my friend again.

Man!  First of all, if you don't like to bet on the consequence of your fleeting and childish visit to a casino, what is the point of your post.

You want to listen to the game experience for what?

I say I could recommend that a childhood experience should not be a linear one to have a failed reference to the game.

Go and have fun!, the good or bad past with betting is just a point reference.

[dothebeats]

Some games at the local carnival were my first exposure to gambling. I didn't know that it was that serious, because you simply just bet on the color that you want to win and they just roll the dice with different colors. Whichever color shows at the top, that's what pays and wins. Bet amounts were very low too, and never know it becomes serious when it's the dead of the night. Anyway, since then the concept of betting became stuck in my head, and I kinda got hooked up to it during high school though luckily studies got the better of me and I focused on something more worthwhile than gambling.

I can say that I was a late bloomer in gambling. One time, my co workers are tol busy in one corner of our office. They are all doing online gambling and they cheer each other. Due to my curiosity, I asked them where to download the game and how to play it because I was too bored since they were all busy during our break time. I have explored the site and tried betting on it. I have won a few times but then lost everything in the long run. That's when I have learned that gambling has a big risk and it's not for everyone.

[wiss19]

Double your money 3 times? I think that was confusing but you said you start with $20 on the roulette so if you double it, you will only end up with $40 and if you triple it, you will only end up with $60. If you really end up with $160 then that should be 8 times from what you have started which was $20. Anyway, congrats for achieving all of this despite the fact that you are only just a kid. I am an adult now but I admit that I am struggling to achieve what you did there.

I think that's because as an adult we consider the risk but kids are usually careless plus it wasn't their hard-earned money that they are spending so they got nothing to lose.

My earliest gambling story which I don't think I will ever forget is using the last money I had on me to gamble all because a friend of mine showed me the money he won from gambling.

I too decided to try my luck, it was my first time of gaming ever, I gambled with the last money with me, won a few buck at first but later lost it all back to casino..
I guess I have a similar story with the OP.

[Sandra_hakeem]

I haven't really had a story to tell about my youthful experiences though...
I worked as a cashier in a casino shop for a while and -- apart from claiming bets from customer who prove too stubborn that they'll leave Thier houses to a casino without some cash or Thier card, I haven't actually placed a direct bet with my own cash. I did so once when someone was tired of wagering at a lost and asked that I give an option to play, then when I wagered for him, he won and recovered atleast, one-quarter of his cash and expenses that day. I have also been a victim of betting cash over mutually tough games like the p5 and chess; that ofcourse isn't part of a casino just yet.

I'll tell you mine. I was 16 on a Royal Caribbean cruise with my parents. I took $10 from dads wallet and went out on the town   I stopped into the casino on deck, worked that $10 in to a $20 in the coin machine. Then I went to the roulette table and doubled my money 3 times and got up to $160, then I bet it all on black and lost it all! Or wait, was it red? Oh I don't remember hahah. They did come around and bring me plenty of drinks. Luckily I looked old enough to be in there, was even 6 feet tall back then, athletic, football player. I made the cut. Fun times! Learned a very valuable lesson there though. This is why I don't gamble. What's a good gambling story that you'd like to share? Hit the comments section! Thanks guys.

This story seems a bit realistic, You are on cruise yet you choose to visit random casino on your tour and waste time just to wager your 10$ bills? Besides you add up your body built type to cover the suspicion about your age while casino checks the ID of customer especially if you are not a regular player in there. Besides cruise has a time limit in every destination and it will careless to go in the casino which everyone forget about time just to play while you are already on a very good vacation? 

Answering the title, I first gamble when I’m 8 years old on the street local poker. I bet only on side bet since adult won’t allow me to take seat because of my small money and also because of legal issue.

Funny enough gambling actually runs in the family, from my elder brother back then in secondary school to my junior, we all have a thirst of gambling at a really young age. Mine i could remember vividly was when I was about 17+ years and i sneak out of class with my friends to go and play a PlayStation 1 game and sega games but we would gamble on each other with some cash to see who actually becomes champions and we toss in some embarrassing task for the lossers of the betting. Although it not an official gambling like the ones in the gaming and casino hall but we can still call gambling

In our place, gambling was common before the law made it illegal. I don't remember the details, but the first time I gambled was around the age of 11-12. I remember very well, every time there was a wedding, celebration, we and other neighbors would help the host to prepare for the event. In the evening, traditional gambling will be held in several groups. usually each group has four players, and all gamble for fun.

My first gambling was playing rummy, or playing dominoes and our place was called Gaple. this game is fun, because it's purely for fun with low stakes, just to enliven the event and fill spare time while enjoying the atmosphere of the night. Along with the progress of time, traditional gambling has transitioned into casino gambling. some of them, do not apply in the gambling market and disappear by themselves. apart from all that, this thread reminds me of a memory that actually never crossed my mind and memory again. So, thank you for making me smile remembering the past.

Cheers

The first time i go into a casino is on the time where my auncle decides to play on here.Cant really deny that he had some the money or simply we could say that his rich for him to hang out into this place which

not every common or ordinary person would really be able to access or hang on because we do know that this do talks huge money.Yes, you could wander around but you could really point out that most people
hanging around are to those who do have the money.On that time then its really that amazing due to some crowd and some fancy lighting and some beautiful ladies around which is a basic
thing.Until the time that i do have money to bet on then the first thing i had touched up is into those machine slots.

My gambling story is simple as the childhood. During my school days we used to say, if particular team wins I'll give you something. If not he need to give me something, and I don't know the brief meaning of bet. We used to have fun and then it was into online casinos. Particularly into tennis matches and cricket.

I think my first gambling story is when I was at the carnival and start playing slot games  which I think I was still in a grade level that time. Luckily, the location is just a walk away from our home so my cousin and I were used to go there just trying our luck to hit the jackpot. Although I was not able to bring home the jackpot prize, but I never go home empty handed as I have also won some consolation prizes like food or beverages that mostly kids will love. So when I grow older, the interest to gamble just keeps growing until I finally end up in a casino betting.

That's how many teenagers start with gambling. They bet on sports teams or when a fight is about to break out at school they bet on one of the fighters.

We do it naturally because it makes the match more exciting. We look for adrenaline in everything we do and betting money gives that adrenaline.

For me my first bets were slot machines at a nearby bar. I was officially too young to play but nobody cared. I also liked those coin shaking machines where you could throw a coin and make more coins fall down.
