Neymar Loses €1M in Casino in Just an Hour

[Frankolala]

One thing that you should know is that,people have the right to spend their money on whatever they feel makes them happy. Neymar is a superstar and can spend his money on gambling without any regrets from him because he has a source of his steady income.

Anyone who wants to copy the lifestyle of this celebrities should check their income and not behave as if they are as rich like them. Why will the government get them arrested when gambling is not illegal in the country. Moreover he is having fun and not committing an crime.

To be honest, I don't know how to react to it. critical, or, I don't know. but what is certain, whatever is done as long as he is able is no problem for me, we shouldn't need to respond excessively. after all, losing a week's wages was fine for him, he still had more than that. maybe, as other members have said everything is just a marketing move.

And even if he did gamble and spend €1 million, I don't agree that celebrities or public figures who do the same should be fined. this is a matter of one's behavior, it could also be a hobby for him. the problem is, how do we respond wisely. and even if Neymar is showing social inequality, by spending a fantastic amount of money just for gambling. in fact, we have no right to judge him. whatever is done outside of football is his business, I still like it when I see him playing on the football field.

I saw this news today and went to find out if it was true or not, after all it is a bit strange that he would bet and lose 1 million that easy.
I know Neymar likes to play poker, and he probably plays with high values, but in this case it wasn't making much sense.

I found a source, but it is in Portuguese, that says that everything was just a marketing move, and the value probably wasn't Neymar's, so there was no investment on his part and no loss of money.

The funny thing in the end is that the marketing works, after all there are a lot of people commenting on this news today, and even here we are talking about hehehe.

This is also want I suspected in the beginning, maybe he is being sponsored by the casino that's why he is not bothered losing that kind of big money. Although we know that his salary is huge, still $1 million is $1 million.

Good marketing by the casino, whoever it is, we have seen a lot of sports athletes and celebrities being endorsed by casino now to bolstered their earning. And just a year ago, we are just talking about Twitch banning gambling for good. But look at where it is right now, there are still steamers, big one still doing their thing on Twitch.

And with his reactions, it made me believed that this is a sponsored stream.

According to the source, it may be Poker.
He loves Poker. But in the article, we can't see a detailed explanation about the game which make him lose $1M.

It could be poker or other games, because you can't simply lost that big amount in money in poker in short amount of time unless he goes all in with a bad card and his bluff was called by someone.

Well, Neymar is a big shot, and only a foolish gambler will try to follow his steps, I will put him in the same category as drake, or maybe he's even much higher than drake.

£900,000 is indeed a very huge amount of money for the very many of us on this forum, and even for many others outside this forum, but for Neymar, this is probably a very little amount, and he clearly showed this from his reaction, so I don't feel surprised or show any pity for him, he sure has much in his purse.

Neymar is having fun. The loss couldn't affect his living in any means, but he need to be careful gambling with big money. When trying to defeat the system with big money the risk is high. He have got more to do in his professional football. Soon we can see him as a part of some gambling platform as the brand ambassador.

Now gambling platforms could queue up to make him their brand promoter which gives back him much more than what he have lost.

Or is he already a brand promoter? Losing that much can tell you a lot.
Well, Neymar is a rich player earning a lot of money per month but in gambling you can lose that in an instant so if you will not be careful with your decisions, worst can happen to you. With Neymar playing this on live, you will start to think if having fun is good while losing that much money? Is he concern about his viewers as well? There’s a lot of red flag here.

[Cling18]

We actually don’t know if its a paid advertisement, since losing that much is very unusual especially if we know that he is not into gambling but upon reading this, he looks more addicted to gambling after losing that much. He earns a lot of money but if he will be more careless like this, he might experience bankruptcy. Though, the post is not to encourage everyone to gambling, his influence can still affect many people, especially the young ones, he should be more careful about posting like this next time.

We don't know if that live stream was indeed a paid advertisement.
But in any case, this may give a different approach to some people.
Neymar is earning a lot of money, but people should not imitate his reaction as he can very well afford such loss even if it is his own money.
And yes, if he will continue to be in gambling, he may likely lose a lot, even his retirement funds as he is going big in casinos.

I certainly agree. He has a large community of supporters so he might influence a lot of people because of his actions. Streamers should be careful of their decisions but who knows? It might be a part of his strategy to attract players if it's really a paid stream. No money could last no matter how big it is if he's an irresponsible gambler. If he will continue to lose big then he could lose all his assets.

[Bobrox]

Seems not problem for athletes earn much money and loses €1M in one hours not problem for them, but I think is not only about how much he loss in casino more priority as advertiser here how he tries promote with casino played. Neymar try to fun and enjoy his moment with casino without want to earn much money because he tries to spent his time after competition stop awhile due international break out.

Exactly Neymar not have skill as gambler because he loss €1M in hours without any one winning, maybe he needs learn more and get private education from casino gambler expert how to try not loss big fund in one hour and have chance winning once from several trying.

Imagine a gambling who may have lost thousands of dollars today reading this. Instead of feeling bad or remorseful and looking for a way to change, this may even fuel his addiction the more. Sadly, he won't remember that he is not like Neymar who earns £3.2m-per-month.

These celebrities and public figures should be  fined for trying to glorify gambling without stating the negative aspects when it is over done.

Neymar live streamed what he was gambling and he went on to loose a million dollars in an hour and that is not glorifying gambling, if he keeps winning then we can claim that he was glorifying gambling. Now that he lost a small percentage of his earnings which is nothing to him, most of the people who gambles should be aware of the looses you can accumulate and bust your account within an hour.

Neymar must have had a purpose for losing this money on live TV, otherwise he would have done it secretly, even when nobody knew about it, and he would have lost that money anyway. I think it was done for a purpose, but I feel like it's none of our business. After all, with the money he has earned so far, a person can do anything he wants, and we cannot judge it. It is almost 1 in 4 of the money he earns per month. So it is difficult to say that it is a very high amount for him. Since he has already earned enough money so far, people in the corner can sometimes do such risky things for pleasure or for a purpose.

Why would be fined?
Are you been forced to look and see or watch his stream?

You have watched it on your own will and decision on which it would really be just that not right that you would really be putting up the blame out of these people who do see  that they arent
affected on losing up huge or millions on their gambling streams.It doesnt matter if this one is a famous influencer or athlete or actor or whatsoever.It is really just
normal that there would be followers who would really be badly needing to see on their idol even if it does means about gambling streams.
Its up to yours whether you do end up with that kind of impression.

[flipme]

I don't like people who throw money away like that and laugh at it. Imagine that he's Brazilian and the minimum wage in his country is some $200 a month. Some people are earning that and watching him laugh after losing a million, money they will never have in their lives. These rich guys are so spoiled it's painful to watch. Completely no respect for money. They're wiping their asses with $ bills and laughing at the rest of us.

I'm not saying they don't have the right to do it, or shouldn't have the money they have, but I find the lack of respect and his attitude repulsive.

It would be better if he helped people in his own country with the money he lost in gambling, but I think it could be a covert sponsorship deal. I don't think Neymar really lost that money. If it's a collusion deal, it seems like it worked, since we're talking about this thing here. Still, I think it seems rude for him to do this on a live broadcast. I don't think someone like him can turn into an idol football player. Because idol footballers manage to set an example for the society not only with their success on the field, but also with their behavior off the field.

Neymar lost €1m (£900,000) in just an hour of online casino as he streamed it live on his Twitch channel. The Twitter post reads that "Crying at first, he then laughs, remembering it's just a week's pay!" I was very livid reading this and seeing screenshots of his reaction. Because it is very deceitful.

First of all, I'm sure that Neymar earned much more from advertising this casino than he "lost" so he's in the profit anyway.
Secondly, what kind of unhealthy desire to fine everyone and force them to do something? Maybe Neymar still needs to explain to fools that they should not cross the road at a red light, must wash their hands before eating, etc.? This is wrong shifting of responsibility and unacceptable interference in other people's affairs.

[danherbias07]

Why should they be penalized? That's their money. He just gambled what he can afford to lose. If it's fueling another gambler's addiction to his hobby then it is their problem. A person who is in the right mind would not try to mimic this kind of bet amount or just go all-in while your financial responsibilities are hanging in a thread.
Gamble what you can afford to lose.
Use only the spare money as much as possible. Don't let these guys fool you as there may be chances they are being sponsored by gambling websites.
That's how I think when I see gamblers who bet hundreds of millions of dollars, they are part of the team or they are funded, or they are just filthy rich. 
But that doesn't mean I should do the same way as they did.

This is a guy who disregards what is the worth of the money he is losing because he earns a lot, we poor and middle-income people will just feel sorry for the amount I find it distasteful, this guy will lose more if he has no remorse in losing a huge amount of money

If you're a gambler and you have no remorse for losing an amount that is considered a fortune to the majority you have a problem with gambling and your value, celebrities like this eventually feel sorry later when they come to a point that they cannot earn enough to sustain their gambling style.

These celebrities and public figures should be  fined for trying to glorify gambling without stating the negative aspects when it is over done.

We're living in a free world and it's their money but it's good that if we have something like that, they treat losing a fortune as a form of entertainment.

It seems to me that Neymar with his action once again reminded us all how you can lose money very quickly in gambling. I also don't really like that celebrities show their followers gambling, but only because it can be seen by underage children. Although on the other hand it's their personal choice and we can't influence this situation in any way.

A lot of people are going about thinking that the money is nothing compared to how much he has and the amount
he Naymer) earns weekly. And I agree with you that celebrities especially footballers aren't supposed to play games linking them to gambling be it soccer or Casino games but to be honest he may actually do what he did just to advice other gamblers not to put much money into gambling as a loss can make them cry just like how we see Naymer crying at the same timel laugh I believe a good gambler will turn away from gambling after watching him cry during the live appearance.

[Odusko]

The best thing to do in this situation is to move on developing a thicker skin but learning to limit the number of bets can really be helpful and motivational for smaller wagerer who may read the story, chasing winning or losing can really fuel addiction and more loses but, the star player is a billionaire so betting away 1 million euro will not be too a heavy loss to him.
But then, this doesn't sound good at all but one needs to move on learned from previous mistakes then move on.

The money that Neymar lost in the casino stream game is very much and I watched the sensational I video and I had to laugh over it because the reaction was so funny at first he cried and later he laughed over it. Well, I did not think that Neymah should be fined for such behaviour of public display of gambling in as much as it is not live football gambling that is involving his club, he has nothing to answer. He is just a human and he is free to make whatsoever decisions he want to make with his money and live a social life.

We're just watching while he is the one who will suffer emotionally from that loss, even if he is getting paid a huge amount of money from his club there will come a time when he will lose his fame and his skill will decline and later he will feel more sorry for the amount he loses, athletes have limited time to earn fortunes so wasting it on gambling is a worse idea, somebody close to him should advise him losing a fortune in gambling is not good for mental health even if you claim its nothing to you.

For us who do watch specially we small bettors do really feel up the pain, how much more into his? For sure he might be convincing himself that it was just fine but it is really that 1/3 of the amount of his monthly income.
Which means that it is really that still 30% on his income for a month which is something that you can just simply ignore it out but deep inside it does really hurt and its not something a small amount that anyone
could neglect or really just ignore no matter how fast you could be able to earn it.This is surely making some lesson learn for Neymar that gambling is never been that not risky
and could potentially lost you big time.
