Who says you can't be a millionaire in sports betting?

[Reatim]

I just saw this betslip shared by someone on social media and he was bragging that he turn his builder bet to Php 1 million pesos or equivalent to over $18k.


What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

at first look I thought we are talking about Million Dollar that's why I dig instantly just to check whos this so lucky man .
but yeah even if this is 18k usd yet its hard for us(small gamblers like me) to win such bit though the bet is a normal bet for me each time I gamble .
looking also to have this same luck in the coming days as now that we are approaching December its my Gambling month as I have enough time and budget to gamble.
and congrats to that winner also .

The bet is only Php 1k or ($18)... see the bet slip below. (check the outcome to see the winning)....


So you see, those who are preaching that you can't win in gambling, this is for you!

You don't win if you don't try, this gambler for sure kept trying on playing "bet builder", probably even on "parlay", and finally one day he made himself a millionaire. This is a significant success already as not everyone can win a huge amount in gambling, considering the bet was only less than $20.

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

Do you have any single idea that fellow has lost to gambling before making that win? Besides nobody said you can make wins like this through gambling, I've seen even more bigger victories, but the question remains, do you see these wins everyday? I believe you know the answer, you rarely see these kinda wins, and to make this much, you'll need to be a high staker. So another question is, how high are you capable of staking and how much risk are you capable of taking. Chasing this kinda win is exactly what has ruined most gambler's life

It is easy to say, "You won't win if you won't try," but it's crucial to be mindful that success often involves taking risks. Another consideration is that not everyone can afford to risk around $20 on gambling. While it's acceptable to encourage people to bet for the possibility of winning, we should also consider individuals who might be persuaded to place bets despite not being able to afford the potential loss of an $18 bet.

Moreover, I'm curious about whether the user was able to withdraw these funds. The outcome seems unusually high compared to the bet amount. Yes, I understand it's a bet builder, but I find it hard to believe that a casino offers such high payout for a 'small' stake.

On a personal note, I would be willing to bet the amount if I had the opportunity to win a high payout. In fact, I've been searching recently, but I can't find any bookmakers that provide such high payout even trying to do the bets on parlay or bet builder.

A lot of people will not mind risking $18 to win $18k, that is a steal of a bargain. What will discourage most is the odds of that game being successful, those odds are so low and to win you have to rusk ~$18 over and over again which will total to a lot of money and you still might not get lucky.

Yes gamblers keep trying it betting continuously and sacrificing money then winning, does this look easy?
Of course it looks easy and anyone who sees every winning bet slip will think that betting is easy because they just give up money and win, but they don't think about how much money they have spent in continuing to try to bet.
A gambler who can really understand the systematics of gambling well will consider winning as just return of everything they have previously lost because they know they don't gamble just once or twice.
I often say that every win is not completely an advantage to make money because there is always loss before or after the win you get.

He was lucky to have that win with only small bet of around $18 but he would go back to betting again and no one knew whether he would win or lose and I sure the next bet would be with bigger money because he believed he could get more.

I would say that winning is truly refreshing gain if he can stop gambling completely so that in the future there will be no more losses.

[Docnaster]

This requires little skill and huge luck.

It isn't about stats because he was betting against the usual stats of a player, but a win is a win, actually a big win.
As for me, I doubt I would be able to risk $18 for that bet builder with x1000 odds, that's too risky, but the winner here , he got some balls to to take a high risk bet and it paid off.

We are just jelous now bro, hehe.. but we cannot win if we don't follow the winner's patch.

The result of the bet I think is a combination of experience of the person the gambler as well luck because it's very rare for someone to actually win this big in sports betting with this kind of prediction. The winner actually went to far  at the rate of he took in this particular bet which I think it'll be very difficult for a random gambler to follow suit but at the end, he was rewarded with huge win which now makes sense to everyone.

That would be a millionaire if he stops gambling,I remember some guys who had a small IT devices shop and they were selling computers and laptops,all was going well with them as they were some acquaintances of mine until one day they started gambling.They started with small amounts in the beginning until they build a balance,a good one and they started playing with over 1000 dollars bets and got further and further until one good day they lost it all and this to say that you can never become a millionaire over the long run with any type of betting.

One thing I've learnt about gambling is that there are two ways it triggers gamblers to gamble uncontrollably. Firstly is when they're losing in gambling and when they're winning in gambling and the failure for gambler to regulate his activities during these periods simply leads him to gambling addiction. This person has already won big in gambling with this kind of reported win but if he further tries to bet on similar games with same strategies he used in winning this big, he might not be lucky again like he the recent winning and that might trigger him to gamble more thereby losing all his money

[kotajikikox]

He must be a lucky person with good skills in Sports betting because risking that amount is not as simple for normal gambler and yes with that huge multiplier .

he may have more of this kind winning because sportsbet needs skill and yes a better understanding to which game and what team you are going to bet.

it maybe a small amount to risk but as you said with that so ow odds? he must be a true gambler to put that amount.

[TheUltraElite]

These wins that get posted on social media including this forum are one in a thousand or more. The rest of them are losing the bets. If everyone was winning the bets, the casino would go bankrupt, but that never happening, we all know that.

Hence by showing one big win, it does not mean that the next bet is going to be another big win. Maybe even the person who made this bet won big after a long line of losses and it is possible that they money they made on this one still does not break even the cumulative losses till date.

My point being that gambling can be a win for some, if so cash out and never come back - but for most people it will be a loss and the casino will always be the winner.

[Fiatless]

I do not know about that, it is not really a good thing to talk about because this kind of headline is just going to encourage people to gamble more because they believe that they can do what that person do when it is clearly not how they made that money in sportsbetting~~snip~

So what do you think we will do here? I mean, we have this gambling discussion section to talk about gambling, why not talk about success sometimes rather than talking about how to prevent losses and how to avoid being addicted in gambling?

This gambling section is here to encourage people from gambling, not to discourage them... and the fact that you are wearing a signature for a gambling site, that alone is already a way showing people your support on the gambling site you are working with.

We have always heard unpleasant news from gamblers in the gambling section which might make people assume that people are not winning bets. Meanwhile, people are making money from gambling every day. Therefore it is proper that people also share news of wins in this section. It will help to build the confidence and hope of members. Some people have been discouraged because of frequent losses, but this good news will motivate them to keep pushing. This section is here to promote responsible gambling and also help people learn how to gamble more effectively.  

That would be a millionaire if he stops gambling,I remember some guys who had a small IT devices shop and they were selling computers and laptops,all was going well with them as they were some acquaintances of mine until one day they started gambling.They started with small amounts in the beginning until they build a balance,a good one and they started playing with over 1000 dollars bets and got further and further until one good day they lost it all and this to say that you can never become a millionaire over the long run with any type of betting.

You are very correct. He will still be a millionaire if he still maintains his gambling budget. Immediately he increases his gambling budget based on how much he has earned there is a high tendency that he might lose all he has won. If your friends had used the bet to expand their businesses and still maintain small amounts, they wouldn't have lost the IT business. They were just greedy because they were not content with small wins.  

[piebeyb]

I know that betting on sports betting can easily become a millionaire and I often find it out there even in this forum and that winnings can be obtained but keep in mind that whatever sport we analyze in several matches with the strength of the opponent as well as others it also requires something called luck, so I wouldn't try to bet like he did betting $18 for $18k, even though I know he was betting with money he was prepared to lose.

I may not be as lucky as him, that's why don't try to copy other people's wins, that's enough motivation that sports betting can make anyone a millionaire because luck accompanies him, not because he's a professional because whatever the gambling, everything again requires luck, without that it's impossible to win. 

[Outhue]

If that's what you thinking, you've misunderstood the warnings, it's not about you never winning, it's about you losing it all back to gambling if you don't know what you are doing.

Now the question is what do you plan to do with the money you won? Keep gambling just like others? Gambling will take everything back if you don't know what you are doing.

The only thing you do right is risking small money and you can't tell me that you've never lost a lot of money in sports betting before winning this, I have many friends that are into sports betting, they win and they lose, they should have use the money they won to turn their lives around, instead they keep gambling, now it doesn't make any difference.

Establish yourself with this money, and keep using small amount for gambling if you can't move on, this is an opportunity seized, do not expect the same thing to happen another time, possible but very low chance, and don't bet on it.

Just like I replied to a post earlier, the majority of people gambling are doing so because of the money, but at the same time, the fact that they are not getting this money is causing discouragement and hence, the reason for the advice that could be discouraging at times. Without controversies, gambling outcomes are always in two ways, it's either the person loses or wins, and that's why it's logical to say that there will be some outstanding winners like this example, just as there will be someoutstanding losers.

Also, I believe it's still wise to view gambling as what you can't control the outcome, which is making people to preach caution based on the belief that you can be making steady money to the extent that you now make it as your primary source of income. These are the cases I read on the forum and as a matter of fact, they are valid.

Your excitement is not a yardstick to judge things entirely as you've not shown any proof that the guy could replicate this winning over and over again. This might only be his best winning in the next 1-2 years, so can anyone rely on that? Gambling is sweet and we will always try our luck, but those who preaches caution are not lying as well, and the same goes for you that encouarges.

This makes me to conclude that we should continue to gamble but gamble responsibly and not totally depend on it as a source of income.

Nobody says you can't win in gambling. Anybody can, it's just that most of the gamblers have more losses than a winning. Winning a huge sum of money is possible if you are lucky and skilled enough, especially in sports betting. As we all say, it will take a lot of experience to be able to predict the outcome of each bet. But not every bet is a win, it's all just the same for everyone. Sometimes we win, and sometimes we can't.

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

All I can say is he is lucky to have won a million pesos. I'm happy for him but be careful on the continuation of your gambling journey. Winning in gambling with this much money can boost your confidence that sometimes lead to losing money.

[Wexnident]

Same thing I've said always, it's not impossible to hit chances like this, just that it's incredibly difficult to do so. It'd probably be at the top 1% of bets really or something before you can hit and try to set it as an active goal? That's just a road to endlessly spending money imo. Just the odds to hit said wins should be mind-numbingly low, imagine the number of tries he had to do before hitting plus the amount of research he has to do with the matches as well.

You don't exactly see how people lose their money, or how much it amounts to in total no? Because that's normal. That's the everyday life of a gambler. Now wins like this? Those are rare, hence why you see people sharing it.

I would say that winning is truly refreshing gain if he can stop gambling completely so that in the future there will be no more losses.

And even after sacrificing a lot of money majority will still not when it is just destiny for some people that they will make it out of gambling because I know a lot of people who have gambled seriously and are still not yet millionaires and they have fewer wins than their losses so gambling you need to be smart, once you notice it is not your calling just leave it alone because gambling is a serious business and if you can not handle the emotional part of it, people that gamble a lot always have the mindset of thinking that gambling is easy and they see it has a breakthrough instead of just having fun with it. I think a lot of them need to sit down and do a rough estimate of how much they have spent on gambling and that is what I said earlier if it is not your calling is better to let the spoon go and pick another thing to eat with but no they just want that money. And why so many of them lose is because lose money because of their lack of strategy all they want to do is just select games without considering anything and that is why they always have plenty of losses. they always consider the amountnt to be very small so they are not bothered.

Sometimes we win, and sometimes we can't.

But what OP have shared (betslip), that's a combination of luck and skills. Of course, it starts with believing yourself as a better and that you are confident you have the skills to win in gambling. I'm sure that was carefully analyze as no one would bet $18 for x1000 odds unless he's very confident with his bet or he has a lot of money to spare.

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

All I can say is he is lucky to have won a million pesos. I'm happy for him but be careful on the continuation of your gambling journey. Winning in gambling with this much money can boost your confidence that sometimes lead to losing money.

I hope he knows how to enjoy his winning. Maybe cash out the 90% and enjoy that money. That 10% will be left for gambling, even if he'll lose that 10%, at least he has already enjoyed that 90% and he's already ahead.

[Natsuu]

What can you say about this? Are you willing to risk your $18 to win $18k, or a million in PHP pesos?

I think definitely will! Especially if I am in the mood and I feel so sure that I would win and that $18 dollar is a extra money for me. Like I wouldnt regret spending it in gambling than other important things later on. But we should remember that the decision to risk money depends on personal risk tolerance, financial situation and the likelihood of winning. It's essential to weigh potential gains against potential losses and make informed choices. Its not everyday that we shpuld always to bet without thinking of the consequences. We should know our priorities.

[Pierre 2]

It is definitely possible to become rich through sports betting but it takes a lot of courage. Risking huge money over a football match is always sort of no for me. I could bet something like 10-20-50 dollars anytime but risking 20000 dollars is just too much. I think many people who where born in labor families wouldn't be able to risk such money even for a single time in their life.

[CryptSafe]

One thing you should ask is that is everyone's fate the same? What works for you might not be suitable to work for another and what works for that person too can not be suitable for you as well. So it is to every other person.

It is fine that people win big while gambling that is their fate. The way they play coupled with their luck while playing works for them and not everybody that seems to have it that way but one  thing I know for sure is that they must have been on the gambling stuff for quite a long time before winning and that invariably means that they must have recorded loses as well. So the only difference is that the just played at a single stance and won big than playing and winning small but out the amount they had lost altogether might be bigger or half of what they had won. That is just the difference when a gambler tells that they had won big , you should know that there was a period he was making loses as well which if put together could be a good fortune for them.

I just saw this betslip shared by someone on social media and he was bragging that he turn his builder bet to Php 1 million pesos or equivalent to over $18k.

Good question, as far as experience goes or to the gamblers that I've known, they have lost so much money before winning big. And some of them says that even if that one big win, still though, if they are going to compute, they will be in the negative and that's the reality of gamblers. So good for the person that he won that big, as as Filipino that is a big amount in country. But not sustainable though, maybe in the next couple of months, he will lose that money again if he is not that careful. Or those free loaders, friends and families that want some of those money to, what we call "balato". And maybe some of us will try to replicate it too, by going on a parlay, but the odds will go against you and only those who have the lucky hand can win that big.
