Op,you are really correct about this topic,because if I want to narrow down my memory to when I first started gambling at the age of 16,I can remember that it was a friend that introduced me to sport betting, he explained how I can play the game,but he didn't tell me it is something one can be addicted to,and a teenager I was then,I won't even think about it if he had told me I can be addicted to it and won't be able to stop it,because I liked gambling then.I thought it was the only way I could make quick money without my parents noticing.I started playing it for months before I won by first money,the winning gave my enthusiasm to play more,I continued untill I could no longer stop it,I became an addict to the game till now. Therefore, everything one does in this life,most atimes it is peer pressure that have greater influence on that thing happening.

I don't think gambling is a peer pressure type of thing personally. Gambling is very singular in that as an individual you either win or you don't and your friends being in or out have no effect. I mean I guess to a certain point everything is but overall I don't see this as a huge issue.

I think this can be easily researched and proven through looking at male groups at high schools. For example my first sports betting experience was under 18 (probably 16?) when we were discussing football matches with friends. Couple of them said they will create new coupon to make money, I asked and went with them so - story starts. It was funny experience to hang out at betting spot with friends talking about matches and making bets. If I didn't have peer doing it I wouldn't go to that betting place.
I don't get initiative sense when people do things, not that I aren't smart or poor sense of belonging but I have this minding things and doing things at the right time especially when I see caution from the beginning. When I see 18+ on adverts, I make sure I didn't do it until I reached that age and even when I reached there, despite seeing how guys open tabs on their chrome when I try to use their mobile phones, I don't ask them but with time, I tried the physical betting shop and that was how I began the betting journey, it was curiosity that led me to play and I think I lost but with time and luck, I made some money too but I think I'm at that level that I play confidently with reduced losses without any peer pressure.

You sounds like gambling is a complete waste and you will not get anything, it's not good to say like that.
I'd say they're just can't feel fun and entertained in gambling, since they're not interested in gambling, then it's their choice to not gamble and we can't force them to gamble. We need to accept every people opinion, what we can do is choose to interact with them or not in the future.
I said, "If they" I hope you understand what I mean by referring to the word "They." Some people say that. At least, that's what I caught from my conversations with some of my other friends. They say gambling is a waste because they can lose their money without having a guarantee of winning. And the other reality is that some people just can't enjoy gambling like we do. That is why they are not happy and do not feel entertained when they gamble.

When I was in highschool almost all of my friends were betting on sports. That was their daily “job”. It was impossible to interact with them unless you also do their thing, bet on sports… That indeed put a pressure on me and made me do what they were doing. I became a gambler too. I was also doing my research on teams, coaches, players just like they were doing and it worked. I made lots of friends like that. Did I make money through? No, I was a terrible gambler.

yes, probably friends circle could influence some habits like gambling habits (likewise "lets see an even and bet together, play for xmas card games, or play poker with few friends and many many more examples). but in the same time, I am not sure this approach have a direct relation with addiction or just driving people to gamble alone/compulsive.
There is little doubt that during our youth our friends have a massive amount of influence on what we do, if a few of them like a movie or a new TV series it is likely you will give it a shot and be more lenient when deciding whether you liked it or not, as your friends already stated their posture towards them, however I agree with you that even if our friends could influence us to start gambling, whether we develop problems or not when gambling has to do with factors exclusive to us and who we are and it has nothing to do with them.

Before we get mature,we blindly follow the friends words.One of the thing was some people get into gambling from their friends words.Later he get interested in the gambling then follow the gambling for the rest of his life.To me one of my friend fully teaching the gambling during my college days.Then I had started to gamble with the little amount,my first money was just 50$ as the deposit to the gambling website.But I am depositing ten times of 50 dollars as the minimum deposit to the trading now.

A friend who teaches you gambling will certainly not be wrong as long as he teaches you how to play and explains the advantages and disadvantages of gambling. But maybe it will be very rare. People who gamble only come to win, but in the end they keep losing. You start with $50 and that's big enough as a beginner, then you deposit 10 times the first deposit, it makes you FOMO on gambling and don't think about how to risk with too much money and no minimum limit.

Well, I think that all of us at some point have had friends who encourage us to many things, however we also have our power of decision, because first we have to take a break and say that things can be very different when we make the decision, and we must do it like this, sometimes friends come to us and offer us many means of entertainment, and if we take them, I actually arrived at a casino it was not because of friends, but I did not copy the way they had to bet, because when they entered a Casion was earning more than a minimum salary for that time, which is equivalent to about 400 usd at that time. So I saw that they spent but they couldn't earn as much as they did or I thought they would earn otherwise, I don't know if it was very bad luck that they had and they spent and the money didn't hurt them, that was something that I couldn't do, because I I didn't have the capacity of them to get money, so I played only with a little bit, obviously I bet Differently , because if I lost and in fact I lost, it hurt but it wasn't that much, instead at that moment I didn't feel any kind of as a catalyst on their part, because they knew that to be in a casino you needed a lot of money. So things for us to act well in a casino what we can do is go with friends, enjoy, and see how they play, if their style of play is different from ours, but if we see that they win or something like that, well, we have to learn. Somehow, something new must be learned every day, however our friends sometimes give bad advice and we are not allowed to do that, so for this Reason we must know how to make decisions, in every casino Nobody Forces us to play , not even for a Moment , Everything we do is Based on our decision , Unless a friend Gives us money for our Fun , at that Moment maybe it can be a great catalyst for us to play following Professional advice part of them and do it like them , but that is something very Different.

Actually I have the same scenario, most of my classmates which is my friends really likes to bet on NBA or even other sports. Imagine a cent becoming a 30kPHP. That's huge right but of course it would only be attainable by only putting all the possible rebounds, 3-points and even assist. If you got it all correctly your cent could be a thousands. Of course it would be too hard to guess what would be the outcome right since it's a live game there's always possibility happen like fouls. Of course due to their story and experience I was inspired though I am familiar how to gambling plus I thought it wouldn't be hard to gambling cents on this one. But literally after tryign it out you would realize it's too hard because on the first shot you already got the wrong answer. So yeah I just got bored and lose hope on winning maybe if I experienced winning in the first place it wouldn't be boring as I thought. I've never won on this.

You have a very good point. During the pandemic, we lost a quite big amount of money for the reason that we bet them somewhere our friends recommended. They told us about how successful they were and the massive amount of money that they were able to accumulate. I know that we should have done our own in depth research but I guess we were swept away by their stories since we are really good friends and I've known them since forever. I trust them so we went along. It's charge to experience and we did not blame them for anything since it's also our own fault. Now that I think about it, you're right that one's friends, especially the very close ones, have a strong influence on our gambling habits and decisions.
I hope the people who are feeling peer pressure right now realize that it's okay to take the road less taken (if your friends are hyping you up to gamble alongside them), and that you'll find joy when you discover something that you truly like instead of going along with the flow. How good would it be if you'd be the one to tell a different success story, right?

Yes, I also started gambling due to my environment at first I did not consider myself as a gambler, for me it just for fun but there is a money that is involve and I am very competitive to win that time. During that time I remember we are playing chess and who will win the game he could get the prize, and sometimes we are watching volleyball during intrams we are betting on which grade will be the winner.

This is usually the case that happens, that we can get influenced by the people around us. If it's gambling, I won't immediately say it's bad but it is only if we can't control our selves anymore. If we see the people around us already addicted, we shouldn't join them first but we need to help them return to normal as one condition and maybe this will help them to recover quickly. When we are just getting started, obviously we are not yet an addict. We are still innocent that time. You are literally gambling for fun there because you are betting and bonding with your friends at the same time, enjoying the activity that you guys love. So it's okay if you won't win.

Let's talk about the experiences y'all had prior your adoption time ( the time you realized you're supposed to begin gambling and, if possible - take good advantage of the casino itself) ... alright we all know that alot of things could sound so convincing atimes - and that could possibly make anyone go for a highlife or tryout new things beyond Thier capacity - was there a time you read any article about some multi million wins and the person behind was someone of your age group?? "*Or a time you came across an ad on your cellphone where a person of your age was tryna enable you get on a site, with so many proves then that kinda like inspired you?? "*Or a time you got excitingly/awkwardly teased by a close friend for not wagering on the same game as they did, then it cuts?? "*Or a time you were offered a big tip to bet with(which clearly isn't your own funds?)? P/s: that might not really be the main reasons you began gambling so hard but I believe that peers got alot of influence too,...many atimes, peeps that illicitly gamble are usually led up that 'em peers; let's learn from your experience too.

Just only a few days ago some guy won over 100k and was showing everyone here on the Bitcointalk forum. Say what you want, but that kind of win is super motivating to the rest of us. So does peer pressure exist in gambling? Definitely. Although in the mentioned case it might not be strictly peer pressure, since I felt myself under no pressure from any of my peers. Perhaps the correct term would be more like peer motivation? ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Although that being said, I am not dumb enough to start making 20 dollar bets in hopes of winning 100k in slots just because of one such motivational event. Everyone should be able to keep themselves in check. I mean, I can do that.

"*Or a time you came across an ad on your cellphone where a person of your age was tryna enable you get on a site, with so many proves then that kinda like inspired you?? "*Or a time you got excitingly/awkwardly teased by a close friend for not wagering on the same game as they did, then it cuts?? "*Or a time you were offered a big tip to bet with(which clearly isn't your own funds?)? P/s: that might not really be the main reasons you began gambling so hard but I believe that peers got alot of influence too,...many atimes, peeps that illicitly gamble are usually led up that 'em peers; let's learn from your experience too.

Just only a few days ago some guy won over 100k and was showing everyone here on the Bitcointalk forum. Say what you want, but that kind of win is super motivating to the rest of us. So does peer pressure exist in gambling? Definitely. Although in the mentioned case it might not be strictly peer pressure, since I felt myself under no pressure from any of my peers. Perhaps the correct term would be more like peer motivation? ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Although that being said, I am not dumb enough to start making 20 dollar bets in hopes of winning 100k in slots just because of one such motivational event. Everyone should be able to keep themselves in check. I mean, I can do that. This is extremely common, when you see your friends achieving some incredible results and you know those results were the result of some dumb luck and not some talent they had hidden, it is incredibly easy for a person to think, if that happened to them why it cannot happen to me? And while such thoughts are not wrong when it comes to an activity that relies in our skill, as we could train ourselves to the point of reaching those same results, when it comes to gambling this is a mistake as we could spend our life gambling and we may never get the same results.

I don't think gambling is a peer pressure type of thing personally. Gambling is very singular in that as an individual you either win or you don't and your friends being in or out have no effect. I mean I guess to a certain point everything is but overall I don't see this as a huge issue.
Making mistakes can be corrected, but it shouldn't be too late before we correct things. Everything will fall into place in due time. There's a lot to do when we discover that our decisions have an effect on us in some way, which often corresponds with what we expect in turn. I'm the type of person who prefers to be alone and enjoys my own company rather than interact with others. Peer pressure has both a bad and beneficial influence on a gambler's thinking. Although it does not occur immediately, a gambler will begin to notice changes over time.

Peer pressure is a catalyst for starting off an habit, lifestyle or what have you which may be good, bad, or ugly. There is in my estimation a small percentage of people maybe 5% who didn't get any pressure from friends to start gambling. They discovered gambling out of boredom just like the great explorers discovered the different interesting places in world today. My personal story into gambling was fueled by the desire make some money from gambling to buy something (I can't remember what it was) just as my friends already had. They gave me four odds for one the Champion league's game at that time, only two were correct. I won $15 from a $5 wager. My naive mind was all over the moon. It was free money that I didn't work for. At least that was what I thought. I followed my friend's instructions during subsequent bets but would later become independent from them and develop my own gambling pattern and strategies.

Although it does not occur immediately, a gambler will begin to notice changes over time. If a person can realize his mistakes, he can try to correct his mistakes as soon as possible so as not to repeat the mistakes of others. But usually, gamblers repeat the same mistakes because gambling can continue to tempt them to keep gambling where mistake after mistake will occur again. And if we find peer pressure, we shouldn't need to approach them, especially if it's gambling, because they can pressure us even more to follow their wishes even though we don't want to. That is the importance of having self-control and others so that nothing can pressure us in various situations and conditions.

When I was in highschool almost all of my friends were betting on sports. That was their daily “job”. It was impossible to interact with them unless you also do their thing, bet on sports… That indeed put a pressure on me and made me do what they were doing. I became a gambler too. I was also doing my research on teams, coaches, players just like they were doing and it worked. I made lots of friends like that. Did I make money through? No, I was a terrible gambler.
friendship at this time is also like that divided into several circles of friends or groups of friends in which there are people who have the same frequency and hobbies. Which in this case when we want to join a certain group of friends then requires us to follow and imitate what they do so that we are able and appropriate to mingle with them. If the group of friends has a hobby of gambling then like it or not we also have to become gamblers so we can join it. Making a ball bet is not a bad thing because besides you make a bet, you also get insight and knowledge about football. Maybe you can improve the quality of your analysis in making match predictions in order to win the bet

Neither any article that I had read nor peer pressure influenced my entry into gambling it was my personal decision in my bid to earn some extra income, having enough knowledge related to soccer as well as being a football analyst thus it becomes easier for me to pick soccer games for betting, however I don't have any interest in any other betting other than soccer betting, Moreso the fact that I prefer to gamble anonymously makes it hard for people and other gambling colleagues to know that I am really into it thus they wouldn't bother to send any tip to me because I took all the responsibility of my gambling activities and which I wouldn't share with any fellow gambler.
