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

[Maslate]

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.

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?

I've done the same thing a lot of times in player props and I can tell it's not an easy thing to do. He got really lucky with his picks and I do believe he analyzed the game quite well. Also, there's a bit of luck included in that.
That game is where James Harden and Paul George are both off night and that's not normal. I mean, that is not their average number and it could've been a waste of $18 if that didn't happen. He is good, I can tell. The picks are spot on and he probably used the stats history of the Clippers players since they have been playing in bad shape for most of their games.
I doubt he can repeat this, like I said, a part of this is a lucky thing because he bet against stars that make stats in a daily basis.
I am kind of jealous though, I hope I hit that same betbuilder someday.  Nice share OP.

[Russlenat]

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.

Only a risk-taker could do that, someone who can afford it even if they lose, or at least has the courage to try betting that amount. And it seems the bettor really knows the game of basketball; he probably thought this through. If it were me, I probably wouldn't do it, knowing that there's no guarantee of winning. I can't imagine myself getting lucky, especially in sports betting. I would likely hesitate and regret it if I ended up losing. But it's also really nice to try something new from time to time.

[blckhawk]

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, they are probably if not most likely a rich person that can afford to lose a lot of money and shrug it off so they spend it on betting, sure there are ways that you can maximize your wins and can make you a millionaire through parlay but that is an unlikely thing to happen and to win a million in parlay, you probably need to put in a considerable amount of money. It is not worth risking your money to betting because there is person that was able to make a lot of money in betting, you are not those people so if you think that you can do it then you are in dire need of a reality check.

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

People share the winning bets on media but no one talks about his or her losing bets. Gambling sites will be happy to see this because it will only encourage people like you to bet more and more people will lose more money because of this type of encouragement.

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.

Did you see that bet? It is pure luck. Out of 100% people, none or less than 1% people have the probability to win.

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

I have accumulated bets before, but the ones that I supposed to win as big as this were all lost. I prefer little win and using little amount of money. The biggest odd I have ever won in the past was around 10 odds and I have lost more than the money used to stake it before I stake theb10 odd bet.

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.

It's not about preaching that you can't win, it's the risk and the element of luck behind your bet. Just like in lottery, picking the 6 or 7 or 8 numbers, you need to be very lucky.

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.

The question is, do you think that the person that won $18k will simply stop gambling and believed that he can continue with his luck since he tasted that big win? What will happen if he experienced that bad luck? Believed me, he will comeback and play again and again and until that money is back to $18.

Seen worst, winner jackpot in the casinos, $100,000 but in matter of months, he "donated" it back to the casino that he won that big money.

If you talk about losses, gamblers will still gamble. But the one that read about losses can know that they should just use the money they can afford to lose to gamble. If you talk about the success, more people will gamble recklessly until they finally understand after several losses.

You are right about this, but I see gambling board more as a way to also be educated about gambling. Education about what not to do and what do do.

The thing is this event will not always happen to all people who gamble's, we don't say that you can't be rich in gambling its just it will not always happen, or let's say there is 100% that you could earn something like that or hit a jackpot, that's what we called a once in a life time turning point, wherein instantly your status in life could changed, no one says here that you can't be rich in gambling what they say is there is a "possibility" but doesn't have a "guaranteed", you could flex something like that just to justify that gambling could lead you to wealthy life instantly, enough giving false hope and false dream to the other gamblers that could urge them to gamble more hoping to attained such achievement because it can never happen to everyone. I don't want to spoil the fun or badmouth gambling, as I do gambling too, but I don't give everyone the idea that winning such huge amounts of money will be very easy. "You don't win if you don't try." That phrase could lead hoping gamblers to their misery, I'm not against gambling its just I don't want someone hyping the gambling and making sounds like pushing others to gamble more until they reach their goal, what if it never happens? will you keep on playing even if you don't have the means?

[swogerino]

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.

I did not say that we should not talk about this topic, I just said that it is not a good idea to talk about it in a way that it encourages others to pursue gambling in the hopes that they might be able to make some money or get lucky. I do not necessarily agree with you about the encouraging part on why this discussion exist since I believe this discussion exists as a means to share information and such, encouraging means that you are promoting gambling and the forum clearly says that they do not endorse any kind of businesses here but to each of their own, if you think that this discussion exist to encourage gamblers then that is on you.

One happened in my country. The man's father do not have money but he inherited a plot of land from his father, he sold it to send his child to a white nation to work. He worked for 5 years and came back home to start a business. It was a good business. One day, he saw a friend and they become close again and talked about gambling. After his friend introduced him to gambling, his business stopped to be going on as it was because he used all the money to gambling and lost all and his business died.

The one that happened recently just like three months ago happened in my street to someone that I know. He is a guy that is selling meet in the street. I did not see him selling meat again. I asked people the reason. They said he has used his money to gamble and he lost. It pain me.

If I don't believe that I can win millions from gambling, I wouldn't be gambling. There's a difference between hoping to win and being so desperate to win. You have to understand that gambling needs luck, no matter how good you are, you still need a bit of luck to win in gambling.
The amount a person should be willing to risk shouldn't be the question, the question is how much is that amount you're willing to risk worth to you. $100 may mean nothing to me person and that same $100 may mean a lot to another person. You can't take an amount that's so much more that you can afford to lose to gamble with the hope that you'll win the bet. It ends up badly most of the time.
When people become so desperate to win or keep trying to win back their losses, they end up being addicted to gambling and that is a bad place to be.

The truth is that what worked for others may not really worked for another person and we know that in gambling nothing is certain for sure and the possibility of wining is not also guarantee so even if we saw many people wining from there gambling bet doesn't necessarily mean that if someone venture into it they will surely win because gambling doesn't work that way, I'm not disputing the fact that gambling can make someone a millionaire overnight but my point is that it entails luck sometimes before someone could win that big, because I have seen someone who is every experience in gambling but finds it very difficult to win.

Although one of the things I like about gambling is that when you win sometimes you win big so i believe that's one of the reasons why most people prefer to risk high so if eventually they win it becomes very huge. So for me I don't think I can risk that big in gambling because in as much I may feel that the bet is very certain i will win but reversal could be the case so I don't think I can risk that high but however if I have a lot of money that removing that amount will not affect me of course I can decide to try it out.

When we say gambling portfolio and the percentage of using the gambling portfolio, we never check the total amount invested in each game but only the percentage is taken into account.

Usually, i will go with a rule of risking 1% of my gambling portfolio in each game and bet. So if I have 100$ in my gambling account, i will gamble each game with 1 dollar. Similarly, if i have 1000$ in my gambling portfolio, I will gamble every game with 10$. So in both cases, even if I lose a game, I will lose one percent of my gambling money.

 

[Crypt0Gore]

Everyone gambles to make big money with little money some day, if gamblers don't believe why are they gambling? The difference is some people are desperate to become a millionaire using gambling, and some just have a hope that they will win good amount so day, and they do this the safest way.

There is nothing to worry about if your mind believe that you can get lucky one day in gambling, you only have to keep gambling is a safer manner, using what you can afford to lose, that's all..

Been reckless and irresponsible is what results in addiction, and also big loses that people aren't prepared for, I really don't want to become a millionaire in gambling, I just want to make some gains using my luck is all, I've never dreamt of winning million in gambling, congrats OP if that's really your win, I hope you manage that well or even channel the money into something better.

People can achieve success in anything if they try but bet can be different because bet is totally dependent on luck. There is nothing wrong with taking risks, but success does not come from taking risks. Here, if I could have made $18,000 with $18 guaranteed, I would have deposited $18 for the bet. The uncertainty here is that if I take $18, that $18 can be gone in an instant. So I would never try to get $18,000 for $18 in this game of uncertainty. Because my luck is not very helpful when it comes to betting.

Just wondering who are those people saying not? If they don't believe that this one would provably happen to them then what's the point of betting? Even if the chances to get those win but its still have a chance to happen. Remember we bet to take those chances and the person you told us here is one of the proof that its really possible to win and became a millionaire if you are in Philippines.

For question if I can risk $18 or more for a chance to win $18 also more than that then yes. That's why we gamble to hit that prize so for sure will do that since that's what people usually aiming for since imagine how many things you can buy with that money if you hit a huge luck for betting on sports betting sites.

This is just one story of one individual succeeding in gambling, we have other stories of many individuals not succeeding. We can't use only one story to conclude that you can become a millionaire. If the same story is happening frequently then we can conclude. When gambling, the house is always at an advantage meaning more players will lose to the house so gambling isn't as profitable as this story is making it to look like, readers shouldn't be deceived.

Gamblers can make profits when they play games but they shouldn't depend fully on gambling as you can win some games and lose some other games. It's very rare to win millions and also more rare to use small wagers to win life changing money as the example is trying to justify. When gambling try to make sure you're winning more games than you're losing and staying in profits, winning millions in any currency isn't always possible but you should be making profits.
