Out of curiosity, how much you wagered recently?

[Dave1]

I only wagered like $230 for two months. Never played that much in a casino recently, as I've focused more on sports betting and watching some games rather than play blindly and not get something from what I spent time and money from. Trainwrecks is paid by gambling platforms and other brands to bet on casinos and stream it on a live streaming platform to attract people to gamble, so he's literally not spending his own money on most of these instances as that's already covered for him. You cannot compete with these streamers, they have their funds secured and are still getting something even though they blow their own bags in one go.

I don't know, I don't think that gamblers are keeping a log of their gambling money, on how much they spent. And if I remember correctly, we have a similar thread before or at least asking if we keep track of everything, or if there is a logs that we have and most answers no.

As in this case, it's obvious that he is being sponsored by a gambling site, so he might or can play as much as he want, whether it is with his real money or not, that is the big question. Others might have doubt that he spent that big in gambling, otherwise if he didn't he could be a millionaire or billionaire by now.

Yes, actually comparing with those who have a lot of money and are ready to take the risks they do is useless with those of us who only bet enough. And not on our level and nothing for us to think about or obsess over, and it just proves that people like that in the world of gambling do exist.
And in my opinion, gambling is not a way to make money, but rather a place to have fun, spend money and hope for luck, and a place to make money just by working or having a side job to get extra income. And don't depend on kasuno or gambling where the income is uncertain, you might lose everything.

Basically, gambling was created for the purpose of having fun, not to gain additional income. Indeed, there are some people who use gambling for their additional income, but with the caveat that they can master gambling because if with capital they hope to win without knowing the tricks or strategies, it will be in vain unless if you really experience luck, because as we know, gambling is a game where it is not certain that you will wins or lose, so we can not expectation anything too much from gambling.

Trainwrecks is affiliated with Stake. We really don't know the details of his agreement with them but it is unlikely that those billions of dollars he gambled with came entirely out of his own pocket. Streamers don't have any obligation to disclose how they can afford to gamble such massive amounts. Casinos are trying to sell you a product and it's in their best interest to convince people that this sort of fame and wealth is attainable by anybody. It is only an illusion designed to market their business.

Details of agreement is a personal matter so we will never know it but as long as the streamer is recently known that he carry the Stake logo, then for sure he is still under the contract of Stake. And yeah, I'm also sure that most of those money at least have come from Stake and not on his own pocket because man, that was pretty huge lol.

Even the legit millionaires or those who don't have a connection with a gambling company can't make it possible even though they are only playing to increase their wagers. Hiring a streamer is a part of promotion but what we are talkin here is only the wager amount. I mean may be most of it are still losses, so that is not enough to convince the people to join Stake.

But people who use gambling to make money should already know and understand that the purpose of gambling is to have fun so even if they use a lot of money like rich people who gamble, they won't necessarily be able to make money. They must also understand that they can experience heavy losses that can cost them their money without any return from gambling. We cannot follow people who use a lot of money just for gambling because we must always limit the amount of money, especially since we have daily needs that we must fulfill. By using gambling properly, we will not spend too much money on gambling because we always remember that gambling is just for fun.

[Blitzboy]

I saw people wagering a lot of money, but this guy took it to some higher levels... How can we compete in some wagering wars and competitions against players who wager so much? Do we even have a chance?

Whales can wager huge because they are rich so not surprising if they can risk such amount in gambling. My maximum limit is $2 everytime I wager, that's the amount I can only afford and i'm not competing to anyone who can wager huge amount when they play. This is not a competition, what matter here is you satisfy yourself regardless of even you're playing to have fun or to profit. Thus, don't copy what others are doing because we have our own reasoning on why we gamble and of course we have different financial status in life.

Yes, it is very difficult to beat or even just to rival the amount of their bets, of course it is because the financial differences or finances are very different, they have very good finances in their lives that make the amount of bets that we consider very large according to them is normal and not too meaningful. Besides, I think it's pointless to compare the betting amount of each individual and on the other hand I also won't care too much about it because this is gambling that only relies on luck, and also on the other hand there is no guarantee for anyone even if they bring a large budget amount to be able to get a win.

Basically every gambler has the right to set whatever amount of bets they will budget on their gambling, and the best thing is as you said it is absolutely true, responsible and wise gamblers are those who can or only allocate money that they can be responsible for whatever the results are, it's better like that than we feel pressured by putting large amounts but the final result always loses. Especially if you come just for fun then I think don't care about the amount of the bet, but prioritize your fun, after all you are not looking for victory either. Yes that's right guys, we have our own reasons for what's best for us.

A common mistake is to see the gambling table as a war of money. People with bigger wallets use a different method to measure risks. Matching bets is a Sisyphean task that often forgets about the fun and luck that are at the heart of gambling. Self-governance over bets is a very important problem. This freedom is what makes gambling safe. This keeps you from losing control, which happens a lot after big wins. Being in psychological conflict with yourself is like fighting to stay inside your own limits. In this story, the amount of the bet doesnt matter. The story about self-control and happiness wins. If its the money, let happiness be the only thing at stake. Winning is short-lived, but playing with joy and moderation will last forever.

It's not a figment, if you see a Streamer betting sponsored with big money and everyone already knows that it is money from the casino where there is a collaboration with the casino where he plays there to promote it too, all of us as long-time gamblers probably know about how marketing carried out by them is because casinos recruit streamers and influencers to promote their casinos by streaming and displaying lots of wins and big bets.

Streamers and influencers will not show big losses because that will obviously make people hesitate to gamble, so everything must be displayed well showing very big wins and bets so that other users will follow by gambling with bigger bets because they hope to get good luck. same by that streamer. but in fact they will get a defeat they did not expect.

[Jody.Drummer]

Your statement is quite reasonable my friend, it is true that it seems that they see the table at gambling as a place to compete in financial strength between them and others, and obviously as I said earlier that there is no point for us to compete like that anyway, because as you said everyone who has different finances will also be different in making decisions, especially to choose the level of risk he will take, none other than they do that because to balance their finances with the amount of money they have to account for in gambling if they end up losing.

True, basically in my opinion the role of management is very important and becomes the main thing in any field or activity that we do including gambling as well, in this way then you will be able to balance everything according to your financial condition, and also yes it will help you to be a responsible gambler by only allocating the amount that you can be responsible for whatever the final result is especially losing. Yes, that's right, we must be able to overcome all the selfish feelings or greed that arises from some temptations, some can make it through and some fail, and for those who fail usually they will enter the addiction phase. So only those who can judge and choose between wanting long-term pleasure or great defeat.

Rich people tend to want to spend their money on a spree to have fun and gambling doesn't escape their attention, it's a bit ridiculous but that's the reality, I doubt they use gambling to make money and in my opinion they use it to satisfy their desire to just have fun.
we have more important needs than just gambling, so yes, we have to be able to make the best use of gambling and limit expenses so that we avoid bad things, apart from that, we also have to understand that gambling can have negative effects if we can't control ourselves. .

I don't think average gamblers have any chances. The length of time they would put on this to compete against whales is just worthless, because what you take weeks or even months to wager, those whales place in a single day! Money talks in gambling and those who have the largest bankrolls will always have the advantage against everyone else. I believe we have to accept our limits, so we don't put so much effort in worthless challenges and tasks which won't reward us anything after all, rather they will only generate loss and frustration. Let the whales play against whales. Choose wisely who you are going to compete against.

Average gambler! Some countries in this universe need that kind of amount to bring back their economies. The amount that has been wagered is $14 billion. I doubt he got that all by himself as being an influencer you get a lot of sponsorship. It is out of question that an average gambler can wager such an amount or compete with such gamblers. He has taken gambling to another level which we cannot afford to do in this life span.

[Mauser]

14 bn USD? What the hell, how do you even come up with such kind of money. These are sums where I wouldn't even Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk expect to get close to. Either he is an exceptional good or lucky gambler or something else is going on. Why not just take 1 bn out of it and your whole family never has to work a single day in their life. I don't feel that there is a real wagering war, every gambler should bet the money he is comfortable with and feel threatened by other gamblers. For me gambling is something personal between me and the casino, not between me and the public. Usually I only have 100 USD at the casino, everything more than that is unnecessary and only makes the risk higher for me to bet more money than my limit allows. So it's funny to see such gamblers but has no effect on my own wagers.

Yes, basically rich people use gambling to have fun, not to make money because they have a business that promises more income, because in gambling you don't have a certain income because you will only experience significant losses.
We should not think too much about rich people in betting when gambling because they use it to have fun, unlike us, we have a different goal, namely getting a win or profit, even though it is difficult to achieve, it cannot be denied that we use gambling with that goal.

You're absolutely right; wealthy people frequently bet for excitement rather than financial gain. They own assets, investments, businesses, you name it. They view gambling as a drop in the ocean compared to their revenue streams, which are more akin to rivers. Their bank accounts and wallets are thicker, therefore they can afford to lose

Let's talk about the average Joes and Janes now (which apparently are us). When we visit casinos or gamble online, we engage in a distinct kind of gaming. Despite the fact that the odds are stacked against us, our goal is to succeed and turn a profit. Success in gambling is extremely difficult to achieve. The games are made to ensure that we lose more often than we win, giving the house the advantage at all times

The thing is, though, we can approach it intelligently. We are able to select games with the best odds, set limitations, and adhere to a budget. While none of us can be wealthy, we may all play it wise. We are here to win, no matter how unlikely the outcome may be. It's important to play the game with an open mind, understand the dangers involved, and be ready to lose just as much as win

I agree with you that most rich people make money from business they build and they use gambling only as a place to have fun without involving the feeling of making money from there, after all rich people come into gambling are able to understand and accept it all forms of risk so that when they experience defeat it is not something they are afraid of and they can always bet with money that they feel is not big.
Even though there are some gamblers among celebrities or people who are quite popular and bet large amounts, they bet just to get hype or become a topic of conversation in order to become more famous.
And people with more wealth always bet on certain bets.

If you look at how they bet, it is very different from us, who are just small gamblers who always expect more certain opportunities in every bet.

[ethereumhunter]

We should not think too much about rich people in betting when gambling because they use it to have fun, unlike us, we have a different goal, namely getting a win or profit, even though it is difficult to achieve, it cannot be denied that we use gambling with that goal.

That's true because rich people already have other places that can give them more money than they spend on gambling. They just come to the casino to have fun and spend their time without having any intention of making money. If they earn money from gambling, they will spend it on fun because they want to relax with their money. They no longer think much about gambling because by having fun gambling, they can socialize with other people, including their business partners.

Rich people and us have different goals in gambling but we can follow them by using gambling as entertainment so that we will not try to chase winnings. We just need to enjoy gambling and immediately stop gambling when we have had enough because we don't have much money to gamble and that is different from rich people who already have money to spend on gambling.

Rich people who have many businesses may also have gambling businesses because they know that many people want to spend their money by gambling so they will make their best place into a casino and invite many gamblers. And these rich people, even though they gamble, they always remember that gambling is just entertainment and nothing more so they can control their gambling. Even though they have already spent a lot of money, it is the amount they can afford to gamble so they still have more money. They don't think about winning or losing but what they think about is how they can have fun from gambling.

They truly understand the risks of gambling and will not gamble more than the amount of money they can afford so that when they go home, they still have more money. They can earn even more money from their other businesses so it is not a big problem for them to use a lot of money for gambling. But those of us who are just small gamblers must understand that we are different from these rich people and we must always limit the amount of money for gambling.

[piebeyb]

If you look at how they bet, it is very different from us, who are just small gamblers who always expect more certain opportunities in every bet.

Those who have a lot of money, of course, for them, getting a big win is their main goal, so you can see how they bet, which looks like they are reckless, but when they do that, they also need calculations and luck because it is not easy to believe in every bet they bet, let alone using a lot of money. There is a big possibility that they could lose that money, however, don't confuse them with poor gamblers or those from the lower middle economic class.

I also prefer betting where the odds are more certain and clear, which is different from those who have a lot of money where it is possible for them to easily get that money back, whereas I gamble only using the remaining unused money which is also less than them so even though If I lose, I won't experience the same level of stress as them. After all, gambling should be with money that we are ready to lose, don't follow their style if we are poor people

People should not expect that they can earn a lot of money from gambling and they possibly became rich since the chance of getting into that status is so slim since they can only reach that condition if they are lucky enough to win a mega jackpot prize on lottery. But for solely gambling on a site maybe they can't expect that to happen knowing that its hard to have a long win streak on gambling.

Maybe some people have an expectation like that since they see whales betting a lot of money in single bets. But reality that money is the one they can afford to lose so expect that this reach people is just having fun with no intention to earn huge since most of the time this people gamble just to have fun or test out their luck for that day. If you also mean those big  celebrities and stream their casino sessions then maybe we can't expect any intention to win since most of them are just for hype since they are been hired for marketing so lets erase the thougt's that we can possibly became rich the same with them since that's not gonna happen and instead we should look at them as for entertainment factor since we could really have fun watching them.

[mindrust]

I think we have a winner here:

Tyler “Trainwreckstv” a prominent Twitch streamer, has allegedly embarked on an extraordinary gambling journey, with a jaw-dropping $14 billion in bets placed on the online crypto gambling platform

I saw people wagering a lot of money, but this guy took it to some higher levels... How can we compete in some wagering wars and competitions against players who wager so much? Do we even have a chance?

Again some random dude showing us an extreme example. You don’t need to compete against them it is pointless. I think you should find yourself a different hobby. Obviously you are obsessed with other people’s money and that’s not the healthiest thing to do. There will always be someone richer than you out there and you can’t beat them all. Accept this and move on. Your life will improve instantly. Do you also get mad because Warren Buffett has a hundred billion dollars? Do you want to compete with him? A healthy person doesn’t do that. You should get back to your own reality and live there. Billionaires live in another planet that you ain’t there.

In my opinion, when gambling, you need to look less at other gamblers, especially those whose bets in the hundreds and thousands of times can exceed your bet. If you make a bet of $100 and it makes you nervous, a rich gambler at such a bet will not have any feelings. Each of us has a different level of income, so we all have different risks regarding the same bet. That is why the gambler who has more money is forced to make big bets.
