I could have won bigger.

[rachael9385]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Good predictions.

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as a lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

[Kemarit]

Same here, I could have won if just someone has bring or repay me back that $20.00 that he borrowed from me. It's not that big of a win for me, just 1.94x odds, but at least a win is a win and I wasn't able to bet on the matches that I really wanted.

In any case yours have a good odds and obviously you could have won bigger money.

So it's up to you whether you will still him as a friend still because you could have double what you supposed to get with that parlay and that odds is really incredible to begin with all 2.x and above.

[junder]

What makes you so sure that luck is still on your side that you have such an assumption?

Stopping and cashing out is always the best way and choice rather than in the end you regret it because instead of getting a bigger win but the opposite happens, all the winnings you have obtained at the beginning are lost again because of your greedy actions which are certainly too confident in something that has absolutely no certainty for a much bigger result.

I hope that before you choose a decision without careful consideration you should think that "regret always comes at the end", although it cannot be denied that you could have won more if you continued but believe me that the possibility is very small, and casinos rarely provide such good opportunities to gamblers, and "prevention will always be the best decision / action rather than cure" that's all.

In addition to the money issue like the case experienced by the OP, on the other hand I think it's more about the level of trust and responsibility, if you really trust your friend by lending money that you basically want to use immediately it means at least you have to commit to him by saying "I need that money, and anyway the money must be returned as soon as possible", this is a matter of how close and how much you trust your friend, but the OP is still lucky here by still being able to get a win even with a small amount.

[retreat]

But in the end you still only make a profit of USD 50, right? never mind, just accept that fact, you still win anyway, it's just a little annoying because you should be able to win more than that but you can't because your friend didn't pay it on time. There's no need to make a big deal about this, because if it's your good fortune, then it won't run away from you, that's the point, don't just because of this gambling, your relationship with your friends becomes bad. It's okay to be upset, but you have to move on and learn from this.

[alastantiger]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Congratulation on your win.

You should thank your friend too because by some stroke of luck, he prevented you from placing a higher bet which we don't know may have altered the outcome - meaning you may have lost. I see it as win-win here. You still get to collect your money from your friend and still keep the $50 you have won.

I know you may be tempted to bet higher stake this week but don't do it. Best advice to use 1% of your winnings. That would be the best strategy for you.

[AicecreaME]

If you knew before lending money that you really need that money, you shouldn't have let him borrow it from you. You don't have an obligation to your friend. Whether it's your close friend or even a relative, you shouldn't feel guilty or responsible of lending them money especially if you also need it. Remember, you should only lend what you can totally afford to lose. Once you lend your money, there's no guarantee that a person will pay it back despite having a deep relationship. And this is the reason why I ignore all money borrowing matters.

You can't really trust anyone, but yourself. It's better for them to be mad or resent you than you resenting them because they can't pay you back. One more thing, once you lend them money, if they fail their obligations to pay it on the agreed date, trust issue will form and it might even destroy your relationship. So be careful next time around.

[Ultegra134]

When you lend money, you should always think of the worst-case scenario, thus not expecting it back. Right now, even though your friend might repay you eventually, you didn't have the money in hand when you actually needed it for yourself. I personally avoid lending money unless it's someone close to me or cannot avoid me, because it puts me in a difficult position. Congratulations on your earnings, though. That's a great yield for a $1 wager. Don't stress too much about how much you could have possibly won if you had the $10, because there's always the possibility of you making different wagers, betting different amounts of money, and ultimately losing your earnings. You can never know the outcome.

[Viscore]

Don't be angry, it will not be the last you'll experience a win mate. Just think of the other way around, what if you lose that bet, then you would lost bigger ad probably regret it. Remember that there's a reason for everything, a win is a win so that's something you have to thank of.

As a gambler, we have all the chance to try our luck or use our skills if we believe that it could help us win some big money, but always be calm, never regret especially on a win as sometime that word "if" in gambling would make you unrealistic with your experience, so stay consistent and on the winning side.

Lastly, don't let money ruined your friendship.

[DabsPoorVersion]

This is a common scenario that happens to every gambler. Having an unexpected win using a small portion of the bankroll instead of betting on your usual bet. Then you suddenly win a huge multiplier, now you have regrets of not being able to use your usual bet wherein you could have won more if you do so.

Your win is an unexpected one. You should just be thankful that you win. What if you have lost the bet, then you must feel the opposite with your friend right now, instead of feeling angry, you could have been thankful to him as you didn't use your usual money to bet.

[naira]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Tell your friends don't bet if you don't have your own capital. It sounds cruel but in fact gambling requires responsibility, even if in the end your friend returns the amount of money he borrowed, the rule from the start is never to use loans to gamble. In fact if you use $10 and make more than what you make today, that's clearly 10X in front of your eyes. But in the future will you still lend money to others to gamble? I hope that in the future you also need to consider this, gambling for your own pleasure will be better.

[Juse14]

Pretty good results. And for some reason I also don't understand, why when I bet a small amount I often get a win and meanwhile when I bet a large amount the result is very zero. And there was one incident where I had done an analysis, but when I wanted to place a bet, the money was used for other things. So I could not place a bet, which in the meantime the results of my analysis were very precise. And if only I had placed a bet at that time, maybe I would have gotten a big win.

And when it comes to friendship, I always avoid when a friend tries to borrow money from me with the excuse of playing gambling. I do that because I am not brave enough to collect debts, when the borrower is a friend, besides the possibility for the money to return is also very zero. I would rather give him a small amount of money for free, than have to give him a large loan.

[dimonstration]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I understand the resentment because I will feel the same if I ‘m on your situation. This is the downside on lending someone money that is your only money because you don’t have any guarantee that you will not use it urgently after you lend it while the borrower can’t return it back to you.

Just think of it that there’s still risk of losing the bet that’s why it’s still good that you didn’t risk more. 45odds is not an easy bet to accomplish so I’m sure that risking more might makes you tempted to early cash out in case you manage to bet 10$.

[_act_]

The more the money the more you are conscious. The money you used can affect your decision. What if you picked wrong odds because the money use is higher and you lost.

Tell your friends don't bet if you don't have your own capital. It sounds cruel but in fact gambling requires responsibility, even if in the end your friend returns the amount of money he borrowed, the rule from the start is never to use loans to gamble.

He did not sad his friend used the money to gamble. What he said in the OP is that he would have used higher amount of money to gamble if not becuase his friend did not return the money he borrowed him. He used $10 to gamble and borrowed his friend $10. Which means he supposed to have used $20 to gamble. The OP would have won more is what he is talking about.

In fact if you use $10 and make more than what you make today, that's clearly 10X in front of your eyes. But in the future will you still lend money to others to gamble? I hope that in the future you also need to consider this, gambling for your own pleasure will be better.

He won over 40x odd plus accumulation bonus.

[Accardo]

Congrats for your win, what matters is getting the win with a small stake. It feels bad, but winning actually helps to cool off the anger. Sometimes our kindness wouldn't seem like one, when we begin to regret at some point. Yet, the $10 may have helped your friend a long way. I'm impressed you had the right predictions for the games. At least it looks mature, booking few games and staking a reasonable amount. Most gamblers, would play the game with few cents. Next time you can try with $10 and be careful not to lose on that. I've felt similar ways, after winning with smaller amount. I'd crosscheck how much I would have made, If I played with a bigger amount. But, that's how gambling works. No need to blame anybody. Sometimes the win comes with smaller amount and losses follows significant amount of money. Keep it up.

[stadus]

Sorry but it's not the right time for you to win bigger.

Try and try again mate, maybe next time you'll hit bigger, just don't dig things that had already happen, you can't undone what happen, so just be thankful you won your bet as it's not easy to win in parlay, some said even thought that parlay bets are just totally wasting money, but you prove it's not on your end.

[coin-investor]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

It is a sorry loss but don't break your friendship because of gambling, there could be a big reason why he did not give the money back in time, and besides he does not know that he will need that money to win a huge amount of money, but what if you lose, then you save that $10 and you will be thanking your friend for not giving back the money in time.
That's gambling Some things are unexpected, and we should know how to move on, the worst thing that could happen is losing a friend because of gambling, so forget about this, don't blame him, move on and you'll get a good vibes and recover your losses.

[Dewi Aries]

But in the end you still only make a profit of USD 50, right? never mind, just accept that fact, you still win anyway, it's just a little annoying because you should be able to win more than that but you can't because your friend didn't pay it on time. There's no need to make a big deal about this, because if it's your good fortune, then it won't run away from you, that's the point, don't just because of this gambling, your relationship with your friends becomes bad. It's okay to be upset, but you have to move on and learn from this.

That's a positive point that we can take from this case, although Op failed to get a much bigger win but on the other hand I think he is still lucky to go home still able to bring victory even though the amount is not too large, but on the other hand we must not forget to be grateful for still being given a win, it's better than you go home empty-handed and crying.

Simply maybe I will say that it is luck for OP or that means OP's luck is only with that amount. On the other hand, it's true that it's a little annoying, I'm sure with this incident it looks like OP will have a little trouble with his friend or means a little tenuous in their friendship, but I think it's natural as a form of annoyance that comes out of humans who have common sense. Well exactly, don't think about it too much and just accept what you should get, because basically it's simple if indeed the big win is for you then there will be no possibility of problems like this between you and your friend which makes the big win blocked for you, so I'm not saying you're unlucky but maybe it's not time for that much luck.

[danherbias07]

Congratulations, that's a win you got there.
You mean, you could've increased your staked amount if only your friend paid you back. Well, a part of that mistake is yours because you didn't think forward. If you know you will be making a bet like that beforehand then you could've stopped yourself from loaning that $10. But like you said, a win is still a win. Be happy with it and don't be greedy to ask for more. I mean, what if the bet lost? You will be happier that you loaned a part of your money and it was spared from being eaten by the gambling site.
Just celebrate for now and forget that money that you lent to your friend. Maybe he will give it back when you are in dire need of it.

[Sanitough]

Firstly, I'd like to say congratulations on your win; it's a parlay bet, so I'm sure it's rewarding.

However, I would like to remind you that you can't gamble what you don't have, so the money that you were not able to collect or your friend didn't give you on time is already out of reach. You might be feeling regret now, but if the outcome were different, you'd be thankful you didn't bet big on a parlay ticket.

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

You just have to choose one feeling, you can't be happy and angry at the same time! 

[BABY SHOES]

Really you win a bet with a total odds of 45.29 that is a big chance, I never reach such odds and when placing in multi will always lose because other predictions are always incorrect, what is more annoying is when doing multi bets (5 matches) that 4 are correct - one loses that is the most annoying for me.

But I'm honest you have a lot of luck, if it was $10. haha but with a bet of $1 if you lose you might never think about it.

Ouh one more thing you lend money to a friend just to gamble with him? If that's what I mean I wouldn't think of giving it to him to gamble with even though he would promise to return it as soon as possible, because he might lose then he would disappear normally.

Unless helping people for urgent needs then I will give them money.

[Erumo]

Your friend saved your from addiction, and now he knows your price and price of your friendship - 500 dollars.

Now you have 50 dollars. 5 chances to prove that you really "could have won bigger". Prove that it wasnt just stupid luck, or dont complain on your friend.

[panjul07]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

And you'll say thank to your friend if you lose your bet   because if your friend send your money back on time, means that you will lose 10x bigger amount.
IMO, this is just a sign of "greed" because you hope to win more while you have won some, of course it is normal but you should realize it.  
You may angry to your friend because he did not keep his word, but you should not angry because you would have won more.
If you really believe that you will win your bet and you have set your own bet limit, you should have tried to find some more funds to bet instead of waiting for your friend.

[Gozie51]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Move on with the feeling that $1 was the right amount to use to bet that game from your side and that maybe if you had eventually increased your stake then you might have lost and in this light that your friend saved you the day.

So there is another day for bigger win and that day, there is nothing that will cause you disappointment to how much it is you want to stake. Congratulations to your bet winning.

[Z_MBFM]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

It's your idea that if your friend had paid you back the $10 at the right time, you could have won a bigger win with it. But since your friend doesn't return them, you bet only $1 and win 50x, making your amount $50. Did you know that you will win that bet at such high odds? Gambling does not guarantee anyone winning so you should always bet as small an amount as possible so that you don't panic if you lose. Congratulations on your winnings, but next time try to bet as much as you can afford to lose.

[Westinhome]

The situation is worst because you had made the big win which is the 50 times of your betting,it's because you was luckier at that time.So if you friend had return the 10 dollars,your winning will be 500 dollars.Which is biggest one for the pepole to run the peaceful life foe few months.But your never understand the other part of this story,we don't know the exact situation of your friend to unable to ay just 10 dollar as the repayment.And forgot what you may do,if you loss the entire 10 dollars by the bad luck.Still you are in the safer side and your friend will return that money on your other bad time.If the 1dollars used for the gambling will not gave you the good return,it will be the questionable one.So happy with the gift from the god and don't blame others.

[YOSHIE]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Dude, that's your friend, the $10 you gave didn't backfire in your fight with your friend, you lent your garden $10, maybe because you borrowed the money you were able to win up to $50, You should be able to think positively for your friend, just think of the money as charity for your friend, maybe it's better for you.

If that happens to me, I think positively, for the gambling winnings that I won, I'm sure if you don't lend money to your friend and risk all the money you have, I'm very sure, you will lose and you will never win, be grateful for the loan you gave to that friend, maybe it was thanks to his prayers that you were able to win, Remember, don't let $10 change because you can end your friendship, remember what if the same thing happened to you, instead you were in his position.


My opinion is for OP.
Money can be found, friends where we have problems, today you help your friends who are in need, maybe tomorrow it will be your turn to be in need, remember life is like a wheel of money spinning, sometimes at the top and sometimes at the bottom.

[Yamifoud]

Sometimes we think that some things will stop us from winning big, but sometimes also stop us from losing big.
In your case, it was your friend is the reason for not winning big and it was normal to feel disappointed. But what if it is a losing bet? I am certain that you will be thankful to your friend that he never paid back the borrowed money as it will be gone already.

I'd say that luck usually comes when we are not expecting it to happen. It comes when we are not prepared and sometimes we can blame ourselves for not betting a huge amount.

[maydna]

You can forget about the money you lent to your friends because you have managed to win more money than the money you lent. It's like giving someone less than you have, and you get more than you put in. That's okay @OP, because that could be an excuse for you if he wants to borrow more money from you. You can tell him that he has to return the money he previously borrowed from you before you can lend him more money. But if he really doesn't come back to you, it's better just to let him go. He may not dare to meet you because he is already in debt.

[tusandii]

You took a big risk with very big odds but you managed to win your bet and I really appreciate your experience but my advice is that you shouldn't hate your friend just because of $10 and assume that he really needs the money and can't give it back.
After all, you have received a replacement for your winnings and you can consider it luck after helping your friend and maybe if you bet $10 your bet could actually lose and this often happens like superstition but I often experience this when betting under $5 I always win but betting above $20 always loses.
Returning to your discussion, you must definitely enjoy your victory, don't regret it all and blame your friends because whatever you get today is your luck.

[AprilioMP]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

It would be different if the money your friend asked you for did not intend to provide a loan, but you considered the $10 he asked for as a voluntary gift.

Giving loan money to friends to gamble often will not return as originally stated. The effect of lending money to other people, including people who already have the status of friends, will end in disagreements which will damage a relationship.

I think your anger at your friend has a reason. And the reason is he didn't keep his promise to return in 3 hours.
If your bet wins after your friend asks for $10, I'll just let it go. Who knows, in the next few days he will return it.

Congratulations on the win bet.

[$crypto$]

Maybe you regret that you bet with not that much money because a friend didn't return you don't need to be disappointed because you have won quite big in this bet.

Let it be, sometimes we always have the same fate that when betting small money with big odds we always win but when increasing the bet the odds become difficult I don't know what happened maybe this remains the principle of luck no more than that.

Lending money to friends in the end will be disappointed because it is lulled by promises.

[coupable]

Thank you for sharing the good news with us, and I hope your friend will repay you the loan soon. 

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as a lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

Do not blame him for his attitude because gamblers will always blame others and circumstances to justify their failures. Although the op won the bet, he was ambitious in his imagination for more and ruled out the hypothesis that he would have lost the entire amount if his friend had repaid him the loan. Maybe he got lucky in the bet because he helped his friend with a small loan.
To be honest, he won the bets with very good luck, and when I looked at the matches, I expected that it would be almost impossible for me to choose the same bet, even for a single dollar.

[Makus]

Wow, the odd you placed your stake on is quite big, I have never picked any odd that in total will bring 45 odd, the highest I have done is 15 odd and I don't usually pass that limit. Though I am much of a gambler, I gamble twice a month but I'm satisfied with what the outcome is. Assuming your friend paid on time and you used all the money for gambling on that odd, the outcome would have been more interesting, and on your own side I think you'll be encourage to stake high next time. However somethings are better left the way they are, since its just a prediction and we are 100% sure of what the future holds, assuming you lost the bet, you can still go back to your friend for him to repay and use that one to place another bet.

[Gozie51]

Let it be, sometimes we always have the same fate that when betting small money with big odds we always win but when increasing the bet the odds become difficult I don't know what happened maybe this remains the principle of luck no more than that.

Same as my view. He may engage the bet with the whole of the $10 and lose the bet. Sometimes it happens like that, that our fate takes us away from bad luck but we don't know it. Big staking value has its own spirit and small amount seem easy to win, that is gambling for you. Maybe he could have wanted to add more games to want to win even bigger amount of money from the $10 and the new games he added will become his ondoing and he could regret more.

[Weawant]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Dear OP I have a question for you, what if it has turned out the game was a loser, what would you have done, would you be rather grateful to your friend for having taken the money from you and made lost less than you would have so I think bits better you be grateful and probably be happy with that which you were able to get from the win already.

I think I sense greed, been angry at your friend because you think you would have won more is you allowing greed set in and it's definitely not good for your gambling habit as you may likely tend to becoming reckless with your stake with hopes that you will turn out lucky and win bigger meanwhile you are already loosing so much already to the casino. What's important at this moment is the fact that you have won some good money which is bigger than both the $10 and your initial stake, you literally made ×40 of your capital so I think it's a good profit margin to me okay with.

[0t3p0t]

This actually has many lessons to teach specially us gamblers. First, the guy who owes $10 from his friend and placed it on a bet and possibly that guy lose it that is why he has not repaid his friend. So the lesson here is to never take loan just for gambling purposes as things might end up so badly.

Second lesson is, if you have not enough money to lend someone on then never try to be as good as a philantrophist you don't really know if you'll be paid. Some people see friendship as a loophole to abuse so beware. Though not all friends will do the same thing but make your needs a priority so you won't blame yourself sooner or later.

[Zanab247]

You don't need to be angry with your friend because, you can use that $11 to bet and lose, assume your friend give you the money which are part of some of the things we have experienced from gambling, but thank God that your friend disappointed you and you still have the opportunity to win your bet. I don't think your friend purposely do such a thing not to fulfill his promises to bring back the money, I think he too try to use the money to bet so that he can return your money and still have some money to do other things.

You can have that money to bet this game and the game still cut at the end, but you use small money to win big money that will allow you to gamble through out this month and, there are some easy games that will be happening this week and it will give you opportunity to win more money.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

Wow, what a good win bud,  first of all, be happy that you won, for it could have been worst, a loss.

If I was you though, I did be very angry as well, because I may not have been able to get over the thought of how much my win amount would have been If I had bet $10, a $10 bet on this game would have given you a nice and clean over x40, which means, you would have won an amount over $400, which in naira is worth almost half a million naira, that's a lot of money looking at the present economic situation of our country, if I was you again, I would have been angry sincerely, but all the same, there is nothing you can really do other than to learn from this, which is, next time, dont lend money you plan to use for betting out, because it could be the devil such that to stop you from making the money that has been positioned your way  .

[Yogee]

What makes you so sure that luck is still on your side that you have such an assumption?

Stopping and cashing out is always the best way and choice rather than in the end you regret it because instead of getting a bigger win but the opposite happens, all the winnings you have obtained at the beginning are lost again because of your greedy actions which are certainly too confident in something that has absolutely no certainty for a much bigger result.

I hope that before you choose a decision without careful consideration you should think that "regret always comes at the end", although it cannot be denied that you could have won more if you continued but believe me that the possibility is very small, and casinos rarely provide such good opportunities to gamblers, and "prevention will always be the best decision / action rather than cure" that's all.

In addition to the money issue like the case experienced by the OP, on the other hand I think it's more about the level of trust and responsibility, if you really trust your friend by lending money that you basically want to use immediately it means at least you have to commit to him by saying "I need that money, and anyway the money must be returned as soon as possible", this is a matter of how close and how much you trust your friend, but the OP is still lucky here by still being able to get a win even with a small amount.

What does luck have anything to do here? You are making the case more complicated than what it really is. It's as simple as OP could have won at least 10 times more if his friend paid the money on time or before OP placed the bet. That could have been $500+ instead of $50+. It has nothing to do with cashing out early or whatever it is that you're thinking.

[aioc]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

You have the right to be angry, but you should forgive your friend because maybe he has a good reason why he did not send back the money in time if you value your friendship you should just move on and next time don't lend any of your friends that you are going to use to bet, to avoid the same experience.

It's hard when the reason why you break up your friendship with your friend is just because of money and gambling, no use in crying over spilled milk, what happened already happened so better move on, and it's not a huge amount, it's different when it's millions.

[gunhell16]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Is that friend of yours that you say is a close friend in your life now? Because if he is close to you, maybe you won't feel bad for him, so you should think that he will return it when he remembers that he borrowed something from you.

Or if you're feeling bad, you can remind your friend about what you lent him; there's nothing wrong with reminding him. Maybe the reminder you give him will make him feel ashamed of you and ask for more patience. Why didn't he immediately return what he borrowed from you?

[BIT-BENDER]

Well you are still the winner you won something from the game and also the money you loaned your friend must have come it very useful for him, great game, especially the Sevilla match, I think the final score of the match was a draw.
Well I do not regret the amount I put in placing a bet because I could have also easily lost the money if the game has not come through. Also way the positive and negative and be grateful for what you have made from the game.

[Slow death]

Making assumptions in the world of gambling is something you shouldn't do, probably if you had bet with $10 and lost, you would be very angry and unhappy, but since you won, now you're thinking that you could have placed more money to make more money, but multibet betting is something very difficult to get right, imagine a scenario in which you are having consecutive losses, you bet $10 and lose, then you bet $10 and lose again, you bet $10 again and lose again. When you look back, you'll realize that you've already lost $30 and you'll start to get frustrated and angry. but look if you were just betting with just $1

even if you made 10 bets placing $1 and lost, you would have lost $10 and if you won $50 on a multibet bet then you would have a profit of $40, in other words you will have another 40 bets that you will make and even if you lose they will not put you at a loss and if If you win a lot you get more profit and when your friend gives you back the 10$ you get more money. This scenario is much more advantageous for you, I hope you don't fall into greed, multibet bets become something that depends more on luck than simple bets that are more about skills. I know that in multibet betting you have to have a lot of skill, but the person doesn't know that they are going to play in the teams because they made a bet before the games started

This is not a matter of pity but rather refers to "the money was not returned at the right time", no matter how close you are to your friend but if indeed their behavior makes you quite upset by not keeping their promise then obviously it is quite natural I think if you feel upset and disappointed, plus on the other hand there is a push from other things such as "if I put the amount I have loaned to my friend I will definitely get that big win".

That fact will really disturb your mind so that the OP really feels upset because it turns out that his friend cannot keep his promise. Although you suggest to OP to remind his friend but on the other hand I think this is not a matter of money or the amount of money but more on "opportunities that do not come twice", that's what makes OP very upset. Time has passed, the opportunity has been lost and the rice has become porridge, that's what's on the OP's mind, I think it's natural and hopefully it will get better soon.

I wonder, if you lost a bet, would you be grateful to your friend? 
In general, I understand you - it’s always annoying when people don’t fulfill their obligations. But I wouldn’t advise you to look into the past and think “what would have happened if I had made a bigger bet” or “what would have happened if I had bet on another team” - these are useless thoughts. What happened has already happened, and when you already know the outcome, you will never return to that moment when you don’t know it yet - these are completely different situations and you shouldn’t think that “everything was obvious.”

[Crypt0Gore]

What makes you think that you would have won bigger? Assuming you lose this game and the $10 is gone, you will be thanking your friend right now for not returning the $10 to you because if he did that you would have use it to place bet and lost $20, when it comes to gambling my friend you can never know what will happen, even if you are betting on the best champions.

Be happy with what you make, and think more about if you have lost the money too, gambling isn't a business which would have been better if he never return the money on time when you needed it the most, you need to change the way you think when it comes to gambling, this risky way of making money have no respect for anyone, so be glad you win this time and always risk what you can afford to lose.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

You are very correct and I completely agree with you, we should always be grateful and happy wit our winning amount no matter how small it is, because just as you have said, and I also said in my previous comment, it's very possible to have betted with more money for a bigger winning, and end up losing the money, this is something that have happened to several of us who are into sports betting.

I can't actually count the number of times I initially wanted to bet $1, and then thought I should increase it, and ended up increasing to $5 or more, and at the end of the game, I ended up losing the money, I then turn back and begin to wish I had betted only the $1 I initially wanted to bet, this happens, and this is why I agree that op should be happy with the amount he has won, regardless of the fact that he could5  have won more if he had betted more.

[Marvelman]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Was that your last $10 you lent your friend? I doubt. So, if you wanted to bet a larger amount, you could do so. But if it really was your last $10 you had, then you shouldn't have lent it to him in the first place.

[bitbollo]

never have regrets. you could always win more...but you have achieved a good result the same.

With gambling the important thing is to make a profit, and have fun (not necessarily in this order...)

obviously can your friend who doesn't respect the agreements really be called a "friend"? Its really important trust people even with no big amounts...

[xSkylarx]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

What if it goes the other way, like if you don't give him money and bet it, then you lose it? Would you be angry with yourself as you've just lost it and are not able to help your friend? Maybe you will win more because of that $10 but also it might go the other way. You should be more happy and thankful than angry with your friend because you've already won and you know that if someone borrows your money there is a huge chance that they won't repay it unless you keep asking them. Just think of it as a help to them as you'll be asking for help from him in the future.

Some time what make us to feel as if we have not won any thing substantial from our bets is because of the amount of our previous loses,  this have affected the overall well-being of most gamblers because some time I have experience this scenario where I won my first bets and even coming out with a 3.5 winning odds,  but later on still lost everything trying to make out some more.

This is the situation that have often times affected the gamblers well being at some point and in some cases we ought to realize that,  at a certain point in time,  we have to take a step back and reflect on our winning records vs losses and know what to celebrate or learn lessons from.

His reaction would be different if his bet turned out to be a losing one. We just tend to regret things especially if it did not go the way we wanted to. Things happened already and that caused his reaction with what ifs but as others have mentioned, he would for sure be thankful that his friend borrowed the money if he lost his $1 bet because it could have been added to his losing bet, if and only if he lost. This is simply the concept of gambling; you'll never know the outcome u less it already happened. Also in the first place it is with his initiative of lending that person who he even called a "friend". No good friend would be mad of something which did not happen as caused only by regrets.

[adultcrypto]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

I must first congratulate you on winning the bet. Even though the amount won is not what you planned, accept it in good fate. In one of the betting platform, each time you win, they will congratulate you and add the statement "you have won more than 90% or certain percentage of users". This is a way of telling you that you should be able to celebrate your winnings because they number of people losing are far more than those winning.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I understand the feelings but don't forget that you helped a friend and friendship requires some sacrifice sometimes. Assuming the game failed, I'm sure you would have been happy with your friend for delaying the payment. That is how these things work. So forgive your friend and enjoy your winning.

[letteredhub]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

A question I have been wanting to ask and thank goodness this afford me the perfect timing opportunity to ask; which is, why are gambler's never satisfied with any amount of money they won from their bet? They always wish they had staked more than the amount they used is staking the bet, and peradventure they lost the bet they would be wishing they had staked lower amount then losing all that high amount at a single stake. Let's be contented with whatever amount we won, there are other gamblers that have won half of what luck gave you ever since this year they have been gambling. As for borrowing people money, I don't borrow my last cash to anyone be you firend or foe, last cash is like a lifeguard in sea you don't just give it out like that.

We can say, that is the normal reaction of most gamblers. Lucky for her that her multi-bet won.
And if she lost it, she will thank her friend for not returning the $10 to her as she will totally lose all those money.
Typical scenario in the gambling world. No one is ever satisfied for what they have, for what they got from winnings.
This is why a lot are getting addicted for such promise of winning big, if they stake big. But usually, the ending is brutal.

[passwordnow]

Congratulations to you as you're lucky with that bet of yours and that can be the return of fate to you for being good. Despite that you need the money for your own bets, you still allowed and lent that to your friend without having a second thought.

Then, I would have win bigger money.

Anyway, with this what you have said. Forget about these regrets about having won a bigger amount because it's not always the case. It could even be the opposite based on the fate that you have for that bet of yours. It's always like this when someone wins and not yet contented with what you've won. And it's going to be a different story when you have lost because you'd probably thank that friend of yours for borrowing and not returning it as expected.

[Orpichukwu]

To start with, the amount you staked is not up to $1; it should be around $0.88–$0.9, and the amount won should be in the range of $43. This is based on the current dollar-naira exchange rate (#1155 to 1$) ; if it's up to $50, you should be talking about $60,000. That's it, by the way.
 
Sometimes we just have to accept things the way they are. If you were so sure about the game and the money you have in your hand was not enough, you could have either looked for alternatives to make your wager amount high or, when your friend returns the money, you can replace it back (that one can't be regarded as borrowing because you already have the money somewhere).
 
I will advise you not to feel too bad about this game because gambling is something that always happens sideways most of the time. You can also think of it the other way: if your friend had given you the money earlier and you happen to stake it all and the game loses what you could have been thinking, or assuming as you stake the $0.88 and the game happens to cut, you will have been putting blams on anyone or rejoicing that you did not use the entire amount to gamble.

[uneng]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

You shouldn't be angry for anything, rather you should be thankful for growing 1$ into 50$, what is really a great achievement. It's true your friend didn't keep his word, but after all you still ended with more money than you had at the beginning. As I see, you tried to do your best to help a friend by lending him 10$, and you ended being rewarded for that, not by him, but by something else which is beyond our comprehension. You may call it luck, fate, God or as you wish, just be thankful for having a good ending for your story.

Furthermore, there is one more lesson to learn from this: now you know what kind of friend he is, therefore you are aware you shouldn't lend money to him again futurely.

I wouldn't advice to do that, because he hasn't got the money somewhere, but a third party, and chances are that his friend doesn't repay.

Yes, you can't be sure about what could've happened if you behaved otherwise, so better not worry too much about what could it have been and focus in something more productive.

It's all fun when you win but get angry or sad when you lose the ticket. You should never feel sad or regret that you bet smaller amount, it's normal thing and I think as a good management in risk, you have done the best thing any other gambler would have done. If you have put more money on the that game you just played, that's when you end up losing the game, you didn't expect it that's why it even came, the ones you put much expectations usually end up badly.

The game you even selected are very much okay to put good amount(amount depend what you can afford to lose), lower multiplier should have attracted high amount so that you can win something big but in this your game, staking high was what you should have done but nevertheless, it's not bad because you bet with what you have in that moment and you shouldn't never regret about it.

. And the gambling you only win what God has given you so even you stake with $100 if you would loss you would still loss and if you stake with small amount if you would win you would still win and gambling does not follow whether you stake with big amount or small amount but whenever your luck shine then you win that day. Therefore your today winning is your luck so don't blame your friend for not given you the $10 to stake. The main thing here is you staked today and you win and whenever your friend gave your the $10, you can use it to stake and win the expected amount. Winning $50+ with just $1 is a very good outcome of the game. God has butter your bread for the day. And one thing you have to know is that you don't have to depend on gambling and don't ever use your last cash to gamble because if you don't have luck that day then you will go home empty. So you should be happy of winning such amount in this Christmas season because it will solve some problems for you if you a family man.

[Dzwaafu11]

Your friend saved your from addiction, and now he knows your price and price of your friendship - 500 dollars.

Does this have something to do with addiction? Someone wished to stake some amount of money on gambling, and a friend later borrowed the money and promised to return it in some hours, which the friend failed to do, and he later staked a little amount of money. It's just something that is normal, and it happens to gamblers who win often come lucky; you won’t expect it. However, the OP wan acted to use the money to stake, not that he has adduced to gambling but just a wish.
 
Although I understand where you are thinking, you are thinking that if he uses such an amount to gamble and wins, he will continue doing something similar to that that may lead to addiction. You are quite right, but you know that is not how everybody views gambling. Addiction comes from how you view gambling. Most people who view gambling as a source of income are the ones who are getting addicted to gambling.
 

[Zlantann]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Congratulations on your wins. You might not have won much but at least you got some money from the bet. You would have been happy that he didn't pay back the money when due if you had lost the bet because he would have saved you from losing more. Sometimes disappointment could be a blessing or have adverse consequences but in your case, it deprived you of a bigger win. But you still have to be proud of yourself because you are a good friend who can assist when one is in need.

Sometimes we just have to accept things the way they are. If you were so sure about the game and the money you have in your hand was not enough, you could have either looked for alternatives to make your wager amount high or, when your friend returns the money, you can replace it back (that one can't be regarded as borrowing because you already have the money somewhere).

Gambling cannot be predicted, hence I don't think OP was sure that he would win the game. Do you expect OP to go and take a loan or credit to cover up the deficit of what he has? What if his friend didn't return the money? He made the right decision by gambling with the money that was available because he could lose the game and become a debtor.

[redsun114]

When something like that happens, just think that you were not destined to win more than that which is the reason why your friend didn't return the money on time. Never regret things that didn't happen or you lost something because of another event not happening on time because it's all about our luck and destiny, and even if that thing had happened, we would still have the same outcome somehow. So, always remember to be happy with what you get and don't regret such things.

There are a lot of things in life that we either do or don't do but then we regret doing or not doing them, but what I've learned is that if we just accept what has happened instead of regretting or feeling bad or getting angry, we will have a more positive life and it will be easier for us to move on.

Remember, if you are not destined to win a lottery, you won't win it even if you buy 100k tickets, but if you are destined to win it, you will win it even if you have just 1 ticket among millions of tickets. That's how life is, just be happy and move on.

[Frankolala]

You are lucky that you won and that was why you are blaming your friend for preventing you from winning big. Assuming the was the opposite, you wouldn't blame your friend. I believe that there are sometimes that someone must have saved us from losing big, because we helped them with the money that we were supposed to you for gambling.

OP, I understand how you been because you win would have been x10 of that amount which is a big win to me because I don't normally have big wins, because I gamble with little amount and I also go for small odds. I hope that you will not get mad at your friend when you see him because of this. I borrow the money that I can forget about to friends and family, so that if they can't pay me back, we can continue with our relationship.

[goldkingcoiner]

But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I think you got really lucky and made about 5000% profit. Does it really matter what you could or could not have won? If you think about it, anything is possible. You could win hundreds of millions as long as you have the right lottery ticket. But there is no sense in kicking yourself for not having the right numbers.

If anything, I think that you should know when to quit.

That is why whenever I gamble, I adhere to my own self-made rules on gambling. I put in daily limits for losses and wins and I do not go over those limits.

[Queentoshi]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

The thing is we never can tell the future, so there was no way for you to know that lending money to your friend and not using the money to gamble will reduce the money you would have won. Your friend also could not pay back or go along with his side of things, so it is something for you to learn that you should never trust him again with money. One very bad character that people in need may have is to be heavily self-centered at the time when they are making demands. They will say anything just to make sure you give them including promising to pay back when they cannot. Avoid people like that.

[Marykeller]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I understand how it feels when you have planned how much you are to bet on certain games and something unexpected happens that makes you not bet on the games as you have planned.

On second thought, have you thought about a situation where your friend returned the borrowed money as promised and you used the $10 to bet on the games you have at heart and you lost to it? What will you then do? To regret ever betting with the $10, instead of a smaller amount like $1.

My advice to you is to let the $10 not returned to you by your friend to be forgotten. Just take it as one of those things that happens when you borrow a friend's money to pay back later because they don't return it as promised.

[Ever-young]

I've come to realize that after every bet has been decided, there's always a feeling of regret afterwards no matter the turn the game takes. If it takes a negative turn, you'll regret why you staked the game with so much amount and if it takes a positive turn, you'll regret why you staked the game with such small amount.
Go ahead and enjoy your winning OP, I'm pretty sure if the game didn't go as planned you would be singing a different song.

[Mahanton]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Well, shit situations do really happen and it is really indeed that you might have won 500 bucks if you have just that able to bet that $10 on where your friend borrowed but since we know that everything cant really be predicted then just be grateful that you have been able to win up $50 rather than on having nothing at all but well if you have been able to bet bigger then it could really make you think that you should have bet a bigger amount but since we are talking about gambling then it wouldnt really be something that can be known. So the amount that you have won then this is something that you could really be able to make bets
on other games on which you might be able to win up something big and since you do already have 5x bigger amount or bankroll with the recent win. Still not bad though!.

[wheelz1200]

Would have, could have, should have. I get it in that you could have won more but I reality if you were betting more money you might have altered your entire bet to go even safer and you would have missed out on any winnings at all.  You can never tell what would have happened to something that didn't.  Be glad you won and move on.

He must know that there is no guarantee of winning every bet, even if you are a sports betting analyst or you can predict victory in slot gambling, even though you have won, you must know that luck is still on his side. However, he should anticipate not making the same bet in the future, because luck does not always come and if he loses the bet, he may be disappointed with his decision to place a high bet on an unpredictable gamble.

However, OP only placed a small bet of $1 so he's not worried about losing a bet of that, but he was lucky to win up to $50 on that bet, I hope he withdraws the profits and keeps gambling with small bets.

That's how gamblers are, instead of being happy with what they have won, there are also those who are angry with themselves for not risking more money on their lucky day. Of course there is no point in regretting because it is advisable to save some of the budget for tomorrow because there is no guarantee whatsoever of winning today's bet.

Greedy gamblers tend to often lose more money than they win. Of course, this is a bad way to manage the budget because potential losses cannot be completely ignored. Winning $50 today is better than losing his entire budget, he should be grateful and return to betting on another game next week and try his luck again.

It's a bit funny what you said, especially regarding lending and borrowing. I want to ask, if your friend returns it on time will you still win your multibet bet. with the scenario, you have prepared the multibet betting options that you will do. or, you start the multibet option with the money you have. these are two different issues, because we can look at them from many points of view. the point, as you claim. If your friend returns it to you correctly, you can win big with your multibet bet. or it could be that you will choose another bet. in a sense, your choices change.

To be sure, I don't know for sure how and what happened. But what is clear is that you won the victory you deserved to win. There are no other words, if that's what you should get, you can't completely blame your friend. after all, you gave it to him yourself, because he is a friend of yours. So in essence, just accept what should be your victory. After all, if you are destined to get a big win or 1000x, your luck will never change. so please understand, and forgive your friend. Moreover, fellow gamblers who know the ups and downs of gambling.

Anyway, you can win your bet again if your prediction is good.

They would be always having the behavior on trying to look on much better side which it isnt bad on some things but for gambling then this what makes you desperate and this is bad.Instead on trying to look into those bigger winnings then it would be that better that you should be thankful or grateful that you do able to win up and basing with that $1 to $50 then this isnt something a win or odds that you could easily be able to hit up
specially on sports betting considering that parlays is really that too damn hard to make some good hit then its still a good hit on what OP does have, it did really just turn out that he's really that been thinking
on what if he had been able to bet bigger?

Human beings doesnt really get that contented on what they have or on what they have obtained and would really be always love on looking for something better or on what
are the things that they didnt do. Getting angry on the situation? I cant blame him though because even myself would be thinking up this way. haha

Always be very careful when lending money to your friends as this can often cause problems between the two of you, in the few cases I have lent money to my friends I always ask why they need the money and when I am getting paid, however even then I still consider the money I lend them as lost and I do not expect it to get it back, and if that is indeed what happens I never lend anything to them, however it needs to be mentioned you also have some responsibility here, as even if those 10 dollars were supposed to be gambled away, this was money you could not spare as you have already determined how you were going to use it.

[BitcoinPanther]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

There probably a reason why your friend failed to give back the money he owed you.  And since you already won more than your friends owed you, you should forgive your friend already.  Aside from that, you would be writing a different story if you lose the bet.

The thing called "if only"  or "what if"  is the things that keeps a person unrest.  Better let go of the thought that you could have won bigger so that you could be happier on your bet result.  Greed will never satisfy a person and may often result to misunderstanding between friends.

What if you loose the game along the way instead of winning, what would have been your reaction as well, common on, this is gambling and we are leaving a real life here, you Know that quite alright you cannot predict what might comes after your bet when you're gambling, am sure that if you had known that you will win the game, you wouldn't have given your friend the money that you lend him and if you eventually loss the match as well, you may be grateful that he borrowed the money from you.

[Ever-young]

And since you already won more than your friends owed you, you should forgive your friend already.  Aside from that, you would be writing a different story if you lose the bet.

Haha you're funny OP, if it were to be you would  you forgive your friend who caused you a 10x profit? If I'm not mistaken, the OP's current winning was what? $50+, if the friend had kept to his word, the winning would have been over $500 dollars, clearly you'd be feeling exactly the same way OP, and at that point you'd be busy blaming him and not even think about forgiveness or pardon his debt.

The older you get, the more you should realize that there is no point regretting the past. It is something that you cannot change and dwelling on the "wrong" decisions will just drag you down. You can use prior experiences to improve your future experiences, so definitely do not block it out - as you have the potential to earn valuable lessons which are often much deeper ingrained if they are combined with a little bit of pain. Gambling is one place where it is completely foolish to keep such a grudge and bad feelings, if this person is a friend, because bets are often 50/50 at best in order for you to make a decent sum from it. If you wanted to place the bet, you should have done so, it is all your fault for not doing that.

[darkangel11]

Don't blame it all on him. If you really wanted to bet more I'm sure there were options. You could borrow money from someone and gave them back when your friend returns your money. You chose to play it safe and invest only what you had in the first place and that's the outcome. It wasn't a bad choice, so don't misunderstand me here. It was what it was, but you have regrets instead of enjoying your win. You made $50 and the guy still owes you another 10. Charge him interest for not keeping his word. Make him apologize by giving you back $12
Congratulations on your win, be happy, don't mess it up by being angry at your friend.

[Zoomic]

And since you already won more than your friends owed you, you should forgive your friend already.  Aside from that, you would be writing a different story if you lose the bet.

Haha you're funny OP, if it were to be you would  you forgive your friend who caused you a 10x profit?

It is wrong for people not to keep to their words after borrowing as this act is capable of ruining the trust both parties had for each other, but then, OP cannot be angry with his friend for ever. Same way he would have been grateful to his friend for returning the money late if he loss his bet, he should be grateful also for the one he won. It is common to hear "if I had put in more money, I would have gained more money" from gamblers after winning. But gambling doesn't always work that way, it is one game that is unpredictable. So, there is no need apportioning blame.

I must also commend the OP for sticking to his budget and decision of not withdrawing from any other source to fund his bet. Many will easily withdraw or sell coins to fund the bet, hoping to replace when the Friend returns the Money he borrowed.  It shows he is a responsible gambler and not an addict.

[Nwada001]

Be contented with what you have won. If you have lost the little that you wager, you could have not been thinking about not staking with higher amount. Congratulations for your winning. It's not always easy to win a game, even if it's just few sport bets that you have chosen. It's still not easy to choose a game that will play in your favour. 
 
What I will just advise you is to not worry about what you could have won and think about what you will do with the little that you have won. That's gambling. We always have choices and you will have another chance next time, but don't use because you won todays game and try to wager with higher amount next time, as you never can tell what the result of that one will be. So be careful when making your betting, don't exist your bankroll.

[lienfaye]

Nice that you win. But if we lend our money, don't expect the borrower to pay it on time. In my experience that's rare because they always ask for extension. So what i'm trying to say is, don't blame the person who borrowed your money just because you originally planned to use it for gambling.

What if he paid and you stake the money, but you didn't win? You are lucky this time but if the result is not what you expected it to be, I bet you won't feel good that you stake the $10 (if ever he managed to pay on time).

[swogerino]

I think you have every right to be angry to your friend but you should also be happy for yourself that you got the bet and won it.I am sure and I am a bit superstitious about sport bets that if you did bet 10 dollars who knows if the bet would have still come true,most probably it would but be happy that you won the bet and you have now more than 40 dollars to replay your bets with 10 dollars or more per bet and that is a great idea to try and win the desired amount,you have at least 4 new bets at your disposal to make that bigger amount of money you imagine would have gotten if your friend did brought you back the money.

[Assface16678]

Don't blame it all on him. If you really wanted to bet more I'm sure there were options. You could borrow money from someone and gave them back when your friend returns your money.

Congratulations on your win, be happy, don't mess it up by being angry at your friend.

No, it's right that he blames his friend. In the first place, his friend didn't return the money he borrowed at the said time, which is why the OP doesn't have enough money to bet. Still, it's good that the OP earns or wins a bet. But I agree that because his friend didn't comply with the time that he was supposed to return the money, it's justifiable to put an interest on it so that next time his friend will never do that again. But we still can't fully judge the friend, maybe because he has something to fix or something urgent, so he didn't return the money right away.

For the OP, it's okay; don't have any regrets that you only won that kind of amount. A win is a win no matter what amount it is; it's better than losing, right? So next time you bet, don't have an idea of your winnings or set an expectation because not all the time you will win, so gamble moderately.

We are the same, this scenario has also happened to me. I would have won a lot if my friend had also paid immediately, I am also angry with my friend but it seems to be natural between friends so there is nothing I can do because he also paid on that day just late as he said. He's still my friend now because I can't blame him because I already won and then I'll blame him just because he paid his debt late, I'm not that kind of friend.

[Franctoshi]

The games was 100% in the  money, but this opportunity could have given you a bigger amount of money if you had staked #100k and it really annoying missing such an amazing opportunity,  However, Congratulations on your winning, maybe the earth rewarded you because of your good heart as you helped your friend in need with money, furthermore, it's not wise to lend a friend money that you will be needing in a short while, else a disappointment may come and that would bring problems between you and your friend.

[Sandra_hakeem]

You would definitely have won big .... But what if that wasn't the case? And it eventually fell in one of those days that you felt it's wise to increase your stakes?? How would you feel if you had staked as much as what you won on this ticket and you lost it??
Gambling isn't a trust firm that gives you all you want - there's every tendency that you've lost more than what you posted today.. alot of gamblers won't post what they've been losing either.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

[Kasabus]

Just focus on the amount that you have won, that alone is already a good profit. Do not think of the money that your friend has borrowed from you, he will surely give it back when he has funds already. And when you have it already, then try to gamble it as you might be lucky again and win another significant amount.

My point is once you let someone borrow from you, then trust that he will return it to you in time. And if ever he missed his promise, most likely he's in a bad situation that he finds it hard to pay you back so be more patient about it. After all, you can still gamble even if he won't pay you, so just try to focus on your gambling and be contented whatever profits you have gained at that moment.

[Amphenomenon]

OP you must be really angry at him now, we all know this chance comes ones in a while and we always hope to get the maximum profit we could have earn from such bet but in the end its never really so, there is always that thought of why did I not put all my money or more, which is why you are angry at your friend about aside the main fact that he never stick to his word, this is one of the reason i don`t like lending to people most time they fail to keep up to their words intentionally while some is understandable others just care about it and its annoying especially when you need the money for an emergency, they will just snub you for own cash. But this should not affect you, control the urge to stake high after this win not to make unnecessary lost from greed.

[Antotena]

Haha you're funny OP, if it were to be you would  you forgive your friend who caused you a 10x profit? If I'm not mistaken, the OP's current winning was what? $50+, if the friend had kept to his word, the winning would have been over $500 dollars, clearly you'd be feeling exactly the same way OP, and at that point you'd be busy blaming him and not even think about forgiveness or pardon his debt.

I'm sure that was not his first bet and if you ask OP for other games he has played in the past before that one he share to everyone, you will be shocked that he doesn't win much, he win little and that's why I don't celebrate people when show their tickets to the public about win games, I don't believe them because it's always misleading, people who don't gamble much get excited by this actions to gamble but misleading.

Let's say the OP lose that bet, he would have not say anything about it or share that ticket, he will not complain about the person that he lend the money and might not even tell anyone that he lost the ticket. I don't think there is anything to regret here. Next time play such kind of these games and you will win easiy the week again.

[Vaskiy]

After all he's your friend. We don't know for what purpose he got the money. Maybe it can be for some good reason or for gambling, because he had assured of returning it after three hours. This looks like he had spent on a match and lost. Today you've got lucky/have analysed to pick the right odds in a multibet and you have won it, fortunately you weren't able to bet big money. In the same situation if you had spent that $10 and lost, then you'll be thinking he(friend) could've given back the money later. Just enjoy what you've won.

[dothebeats]

It could have went either way, don't you think? If I were in your position, I'd be happy with what I gained rather than think of what I could potentially gain with the amount of money I could have at the time of my bet. Things could go wrong real fast with gambling, and there's no guarantee that I'll be winning with what I put in. Regardless, it's really an awful experience to not get the money you're expecting from a friend at the time that they promised it, then again I wouldn't have thought of using that money to be risked in gambling as I know it could have went either way.

Regrets like this often come to bite us in the end. Then again, it's embedded deep within the gambler's psyche.

[klidex]

First of all, congratulations on your win @OP.
Friends sometimes it's annoying if you borrow money but don't give it back immediately, especially if you want to use the money to bet. If only the money had been returned, you would definitely get a bigger win, but unfortunately you just bet with the money you have and it turns out to be your luck by chance.
However I need to ask you a little, do you know if your bet can be correct and in accordance with your previous predictions? Of course, actually you don't know if you are experiencing luck or winning because you happen to bet with only $1, but at least you can double that $1 it could be $50, that's many times over and maybe that's your luck because you lent the money to a friend. you, you have to let it go because you have got more in return. Don't get carried away by your emotions because of your friend because that will make the relationship between you and your friend become strained. Don't just because $10 is a big problem for you and your friend because sometimes friendships are damaged just because money problems.

[KTChampions]

Just focus on the amount that you have won, that alone is already a good profit. Do not think of the money that your friend has borrowed from you, he will surely give it back when he has funds already.

After all, you can still gamble even if he won't pay you, so just try to focus on your gambling and be contented whatever profits you have gained at that moment.

I don’t think that the advice to wait until the debt is repaid and then use this money for gambling is good. As I understand it, the OP is not just playing for fun, but is very focused on the possible profit. Considering that the odds he bets on are quite high, it is difficult to hope that he will again receive such a win in the next few bets.
I would advise him to cool down, not try to change the past and only then make serious bets again.

[EluguHcman]

Congratulations to your winning but it sounds like you are the mind who could risky and bet with your last fund in the gambling.
If you have lost the bet if staked with the said $10 which you borrowed your friend, you would had regretted that if you knew, you would had borrowed your friend this money that hopefully you would had bridged you from the amount lost or may would had minimized your lost for you whereas you would had beted with a lower amount of fund current with you.
I will advise you to appreciate your friend for any cost probably your kind gesture heart to had given him the money in the first place may have followed with his food wished to you which had got you won the bet.
You know the literally words that says "every disappoinment is a blessing"? Being considerate his disappoinment to you may had proffered you that blessing to had won.
Appreciate the situation my fellow gambler.

Yes, we don't know the reason why his friend borrowed the money, but if the money was for gambling, he shouldn't have to lend the money to his friend anymore. And if the friend doesn't return the money in a few days, it's best not to think about it because it looks like the friend doesn't want to return the money. After all, he was lucky to get the win and let's say that his win was to replace the money his friend borrowed so he wouldn't think too much about the money he borrowed. And I agree with you about enjoying the winning money instead of thinking about your friends. Maybe he will come to her again someday so forget it.

[Mauser]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Not sure if I fully understand the issue here, you gave your friend 10 USD for him to gamble with and he would return the money ASAP? But how can he return the money ASAP if he losses in gambling? He either has his own money to repay you, but why loaning out the money from you in the first place then, or he doesn't have any money at all and after losing his gamble he will be broke. It would be always a bit cautious if a friend wants money for gambling and still wants to repay me quickly. And then you wanted to use the same 10 USD for your own gambling? But why give it to your friend then, you should have gambled yourself first and only give your friend some money after you played. Also, relying on a bet with 50x multiplier doesn't seem so realistic to be winable in many cases. I would say you got lucky here and should be happy about your win. In the end you end with the 50 USD profits + the 10 USD from your friend. You can place many more bets with your bankroll now and keep growing your balance.

[Z390]

You know, this is the spirit I don't want to have in me when it comes to gambling, the feeling of I could have won even more, that's a very bad feeling, because you believe that you know what the end result will be like but the truth is you know nothing, you won't say this if you lost the game, I think you will be able to take another shot in gambling when your friend finally pays you back but do not put the blame of winning more on your friend because he doesn't pay back in time.
What humans can't beat is time, it's impossible to know how your next morning is going to look or feel like, you don't even know if this night is your last, so why adding what if into gambling when it's all about luck? To me your friend isn't a part of what you don't win more, because you could have lost all that money and be thankful later that you don't add up the money you lend to your friend.
If you are a good gambler you should start looking for a more serious bet, or are you already thinking that it's impossible to win again since your last won would have been a bigger one? A tip of advice for you brother, don't use what you can not afford to lose, when your friend pay up its wiser to risk it if you can afford to lose, because no one knows what is waiting to happen.

[Strongkored]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I think he's just preventing you from losing $10 if he's going to give it back, because the win you got was just a coincidence in my opinion because if the casino has a cashout feature, maybe you will withdraw earlier because you have seen several correct bets, so there's no need to be too upset because you could have gotten bigger, because when you lend the money you did with full awareness, just think about if he has returned the money you will have $60, and you can bet on other bets and hopefully make better results.

His friend do ask for some $10 bucks then it was his only money left or lets say he had only $1 after he had let his friend borrowed his money. Now on the time that he did make some bet and then using up that 1 buck
and it resulted out to be a win then he is really that thinking that if he hadnt let those funds been given or lent out to his friend then he might be that winning huge without even trying to thinking that what if he
didnt win that game or bet? For sure the main line that he would be having in mind is that that it is really just that right that he let his friend borrowed his money or else he would lose that 10 bucks.

A very usual or common reaction to have in mind on which you would really be having those regrets or words when you do fail up on betting bigger but on the time that it was a lost
then you would really be just reacting just fine since you do know that you are safe. lol

[Litzki1990]

After betting $1 to win $50, you feel like you could have made $500 on the bet if your friend had paid you back $10. You feel like you should have bet more because you won the bet, but before you bet you probably thought you could lose that dollar amount. Since you made $50 with one dollar, I would say that you took a high risk gamble and that risk was high. You are lucky so you won in this gamble. It's a different matter if your friend didn't pay your loan on time, but it's wrong to think that you could have made a lot of money just by paying off the loan. Since money is gambled with risk, the outcome of the gamble can go either way.

[goxcraft]

Wow that's a huge amount my friend. Indeed if your friend returned the 10$ in time you could have won a big time. But hey winning 50$+ with only 1$ isn't that bad is it? I think you can consider yourself lucky. Everything that happens always happens for a reason. So blaming your friend won't help you with anything. You could have lost all your money. It's just a game of luck. So instead of being sad or blaming your friend, you should be happy with what you have and won not what you could have had or win.

[Dewi Aries]

If examined and seen from the other side it seems to be true as you said, his friend took / borrowed the money in order to prevent OP from losing his money on the gambling he was going to do, we are leading to a positive mindset and it seems to make sense. All wins in gambling are nothing more than coincidence and that's true, and the OP's friend seems to have a suspicion that the final result will be disappointing, so he prefers to borrow the money as a precaution so that the OP does not lose. So don't think too much about it, maybe at that time your luck was only for that amount and it could have been something else if at that time your friend did not borrow and then you put all the money you had, it is possible that you could lose there, which means a different story. So being grateful is better and maybe there is another luck waiting for you next time, you can try again later.

Yeah, of course gamblers will want to have bet a higher amount when they win and lower ahen they lose. Unfortunately that's not how it works.

You can't change the past given the present knowledge.

[Jawhead999]

Can't say too much, but the lesson is never lend your money to anyone including your family because they're might not pay it back or pay overdue.

But, I doubt if you will gamble your $11 by taking big risk, you might only keep bet $1 and use the other $10 to bet in another match which might you lose. Everyone always regret when they see an opportunity that they can grab, it's normal and we need to move on from that.

[moneystery]

if i were you, maybe i would also feel the same thing, i would definitely be annoyed and angry with that person, because he didn't keep his promise and in the end i staked less money than i should have and won a little. if he can keep his promise by paying on time maybe you will win 500 usd more and that is a lot of money.

that's why because of things like this i'm reluctant to lend money to my friends. if he wasn't so close to me, i would avoid lending him money because i know that he won't keep his promises. and rather than being annoyed or disappointed with him, it is better not to lend him money in the first place.

It is pretty much what happens to traders in exchanges when they manage to successfully predict a trend but they end up closing their position way too early, so instead winning double or triple digits, they only manage to accumulate single digits in profit. It has something which I have personally experienced, by the way.

When comes to lending money, it is very circumstantial whether one should or not lend to friends and family, though as a rule of thumb, money lending and gambling do not mix well at all, specially if that is money one is planning to gamble or bet as OP did.

Ironically, If OP did not have such a good luck with his bet, that friend would have saved him from lossing it all in a single bet.

[SmartGold01]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Have you also considered the possibility of losing this game then?
Even you yourself didn't know that you will for sure win this game otherwise you would have converted your bitcoin or even to borrow money to stake higher amount. The thing is people don't always know or predict when they are going to win in their selected matches if so they would have stake with $10k or more to make sure they win a life changing money to retire from gambling, so just take this winning as something you didn't expect even though you wanted to stake high.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Well, your friend has actually disappointed you, and it's something that usually happens most of the time when you trust people, and I feel you also did not make it known to him that you actually intended to use the money very urgently. He might probably think you don't need the money that urgently. You just have to cheer yourself up with the little win you made, because if you never had any money to stake at all, that's when you would have been very angry. 

[DaNNy001]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason).

Well first congrats on your win, no matter how small you deemed it be, it's still a win in gambling and many of us know how hard that comes by these days.

Secondly, I don't know about you but I tend to think everything actually has a reason and purpose for happening and I also think your friend actually borrowing that funds was bound to occur inorder for you to achieve that win of yours. Well the reason why am saying this is because most of the time gamblers try to be extremely careful when they actually want to stake high amount of which alway ends because the more they try to be safe the more the game gets easily spoilt. Who knows what might have been the outcome if your friend actually came with the money, because maybe you wouldn't have selected the risk involved in the winning ticket of yours.

[rachael9385]

However, I really understand what you guys are saying, but like we always know, there are some opportunities that do come ones in a blue moon, but I still have to believe that as long as gamble is involved, there will still be a day when I will win bigger amount.
But for my friend, I am no longer a great because he's my friend and we have known each other for years and we grow up together, so he is not to be blamed at all.
@DaNNy001, you are apparently correct, I know that every thing happens for a reason, that's why I have to let go, because the more I think about how much I would have won then the more I get exhausted, so there is nothing to think about anymore.

[OgNasty]

That’s a nice win for sure but they can always be bigger. You could always lose too so I wouldn’t go blaming people you give money to for you not getting rich, or in this case making a little extra money. Be glad you got the win and were able to pay your friend. Thats a win win. No need to go looking for negativity in the situation.

why do you trust your friends at your gambling table, in gambling you have to understand who are called friends and enemies, many of the heavy gamblers are those who find it difficult to pay their debts. I never go to an offline casino, but sometimes people often give me chats on the online gambling site account that I usually play on so they can borrow money from me. Gamblers have bad ethics about paying debts, be careful about giving them the money you have, always tell them sad stories, so they don't want to borrow money from you.

[maydna]

You're right @OP, to just let it go instead of thinking about it all the time. That will make you tired, and you won't be able to think clearly about what bet you can place next. You can definitely still win other bets, and yesterday's win is not the end of your bet. You can still bet and forget about your friends. You can still enjoy your winnings and prepare other money to place bets. Don't think too much about it because it's pointless. You should rest first before starting to choose other matches. You can win big on the next bet @ OP.

I agree with you and this are the things that lead someone to become addiction in gambling. Such feeling is there to tricker the gambler to play more. And started from like this. The Op feel that, what he has won is not enough and he wanted to win more if the $10 was with him but that is wrong feeling. Who knows if he stake big and loss everything. Op should not have this feeling again in next time and stake whatever he has in his hand, he should use it to stake and leave the rest for the luck.

Gambling is not do or die affair, you stake what you have and go and if you have luck you win or you loss. Assuming he staked with the amount he wanted and loss everything what will he say?

[TelolettOm]

Ah, it's like this again. I thought only my area or neighborhood was like this, but it turns out this might happen anywhere. I personally don't really believe in various promises from someone to pay it off when they come to us and are in debt. They often make very sweet promises and promises to return ASAP. But in reality, they might even forget about it when they receive our money. Therefore, based on my personal experience, which has been involved in lending money to other people many times, if someone comes, it is better to refuse. Or give him as little as he can and don't expect the money to come back to us, but don't give him the full amount of money he will borrow, only some money that we are willing to give up. unless it is related to the life and death of someone who needs the money for hospital fees.

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Luck may not be the same. It could be that when you get your $10, it turns out you didn't get the winnings. It's true that your friend is wrong, but that doesn't mean that your luck in gambling is really the same as what you would get if you had $10 from your friend. So, be grateful for the victory and don't regret what has happened. If you are not sincere, keep contacting your friends to immediately pay off the debt. If he doesn't respond, what else can you do, don't let this disturb your consistency and activities in gambling, even though this is not easy, just do it instead of being disturbed.

[acroman08]

quite dangerous thinking there. pretty sure you would feel differently if the result of the bet didn't end in your favor and would feel glad that you only lost $1 instead of $10. don't get me wrong I understand your frustration when your friend didn't do what he promised but saying you would have won bigger if you had the $10 is simply not true, there was no guarantee that you would win if your bet was $10.

Yeah, that's the thing. After the fact many people would have said that they would have bet more money, only when they end up winning 

I'm sure they forget all the times they lost $1 and never think they could have bet more that time.

In the end there are probably more smaller bets, so they will end up winning more often compared to big bets. So, this feeling must be pretty common

[Litzki1990]

After betting $1 to win $50, you feel like you could have made $500 on the bet if your friend had paid you back $10. You feel like you should have bet more because you won the bet, but before you bet you probably thought you could lose that dollar amount. Since you made $50 with one dollar, I would say that you took a high risk gamble and that risk was high. You are lucky so you won in this gamble.

OP made the post here if he would have lost money instead of profit by gambling but he wouldn't have thought like that or he would have thanked his friend in his heart that his friend didn't pay his loan on time. We should be satisfied with what we actually get, gambling with one dollar earned 50 dollars I think he should be satisfied with that much. With one dollar he earned 50 dollars I think he will gamble again with more money hoping for more profit but then the result will not come as he expected. There are many gamblers who have made a lot of money by gambling only on their own luck but it didn't take long for them to lose the amount of money they gained by gambling. It will not take us a day to lose the amount of money we can accumulate in gambling profits over a long period of time. OP has profited here I think now he should be careful and control his greed and then gamble.

[n00ber]

I was able to win big. My account was multiplied by 3. Is that big enough? Actually, my greed has awakened. I continue to bet. And I lost all my winnings and initial capital.

I honestly don't know how much money is enough and big for a gambler, so I learned my lesson. I need to set a goal if that day I x2 assets. I won, and the amount was large enough for the capital I spent, so I stopped playing. Don't be too greedy to lose all your initial capital. It will be impossible to be continuously lucky in gambling.

It would really be just that ending up on two different possible responses or reaction on which he would really be that thankful into his friend if that bet had been a lost but since its a winning bet then you would really be able to expect the different thing.It is really just that a very normal human being kind of reaction.  People would really be making out those regrets that they havent been able to bet big
on the time that they are winning and this is where people would be making out that freaking blaming time into those people who are cause on why they havent been able to win up big.
This is a common approach and reaction but still a win is a win and the profits made are actually not bad because having that $10 to 50? this isnt something
that anyone could be able to hit up.

This is why gamblers should know that it's a two-way thing, it's either they win or lose, and because you win now doesn't mean you would win in the next bet, and the same thing goes for the opposite, anyone can win and continue to win, but it's until they try it that they will know the actual outcome of their thought. Gambling is such that we should not engage without a proper plan, this is where many are making mistakes and are saying they are addicted and have lost their control. Why wouldn't that happen when you do not have a plan but just betting based on your digression, instinct and emotion, which is bad? Gambling requires the gamblers to be strategic and disciplined, this is as they have the necessary plans on what to do and the amount to play even before getting to the betting house or platform.

With this, I believe that gamblers will not have the guilty feeling of playing less or more, they will be contented with their results whether good or bad because they've already planned for it and their minds will not be so attached to the money.

[bakasabo]

Imo OP should not blame or feel bad about his friend, because he has missed a chance to win more. It is nice achievement that you have turned $1 into $50. But if your bank would be 10 times more, are you sure you would have placed same bets and would have risked the same? To be honest, I am not sure that you would go all-in. I suppose you would have bet only part of your money, and would spent rest, or maybe gambled differently. You could have won more, but dont hunt for every possible money and try to earn all possible money.

Yes, that is the result of us not being able to control ourselves and instead letting greed control us until we finally continue gambling because we want to get a bigger win. But that's normal for many gamblers and not just you. I also experienced it and so did other gamblers. But we have to learn from that experience so that we don't get trapped again by that greed and can stop immediately after getting the big win. We don't need to take too big a risk by continuing the gambling game, especially if we have managed to win big because that is enough for us to cash in the winnings.

[livingfree]

So how was it? Did your friend already paid you as it seems you've got a grudge to him for not paying you so that you could have potentially win more?

But if your bank would be 10 times more, are you sure you would have placed same bets and would have risked the same? To be honest, I am not sure that you would go all-in. I suppose you would have bet only part of your money, and would spent rest, or maybe gambled differently. You could have won more, but dont hunt for every possible money and try to earn all possible money.

That's pretty normal when we have won such amounts and we've got lesser capital due to the money that was borrowed from us. And there goes all of the thoughts about what ifs when that money wasn't lent.

Anyway, there's no way to know if the results are the same if that money was with him/her.

Yes it should be, I think there is nothing to blame because I think this is not a deliberate act by his friend and also maybe there are some obstacles that make OP's friend late to return the money so that OP cannot get a much bigger win. But basically if we calculate then obviously I think there OP has also got a pretty big luck by only putting $1 and getting a win of $50, obviously that's already a thousand percent profit I think.

So there is nothing wrong with being grateful for the amount of winnings, I believe what makes you quite upset is because previously you had intended to put a larger amount and when you failed to put that amount it turned out that the final result was completely in accordance with your predictions and as you expected but unfortunately you only put a small amount with $1. About your question Op has said that from the beginning he intended to put $10 and that means he is able to accept any results including the risk of losing. But the point is I think the situation he is in is still good because I think the win of $50 by only putting $1 is also very large.

[Saisher]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

You just move on and charge this to experience, it's only a small amount why make a big fuzz about it, your friend may have a good reason why he failed to return the money in time, but next time if you are going to use the money for gambling do not lend it even to your friends, do not get angry with your friend because of small issues its hard to part ways with your friend because of gambling especially if the amount is only worth $50.

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason).

You could have lost bigger too. People don't understand that gambling works both ways. Just be happy that you won something. If you actually made money from gambling, then you are very lucky. Statistically, most people leave gambling without winning anything. I mean even when they win "something" when you make the calculation, you'll see that they ain't winning anything in the long term.

If you think too much about this you'll FOMO and wager more and you'll lose whatever you won.

[Findingnemo]

Firstly, money and relationships should never mix whether its friendship or family better avoid borrowing which can ruin the relationships.

Now come to the topic, you are supposed to bet $10 in the first place or just have the thought now after seeing results?

Either way, all you can do is just blame but it is not going to change anything at all and if you feel that you still got some juice then try to make the $50 winning reward by going through the same process and see what is the result and what is your feeling if it goes the other way.

[fullhdpixel]

I was able to win big. My account was multiplied by 3. Is that big enough? Actually, my greed has awakened. I continue to bet. And I lost all my winnings and initial capital.

I honestly don't know how much money is enough and big for a gambler, so I learned my lesson. I need to set a goal if that day I x2 assets. I won, and the amount was large enough for the capital I spent, so I stopped playing. Don't be too greedy to lose all your initial capital. It will be impossible to be continuously lucky in gambling.

It's not only about gamblers, it's human nature, we never get completely satisfied no matter how much we get, especially if it's about money and valuables. We might have an aim, we might say to ourselves that we won't ask for more if we get our aim or goal achieved, but that's not true, and as soon as we hit the goal, the greed inside us wakes up and starts asking for more, and it convinces us in thinking that we still don't have enough and there is more we can get if we try.

It's a bad thing, but most humans are like this. You can barely find a person who will say that they don't need more as they have enough already. When we talk about gamblers, they are human as well, and they have the greed factor in them too which makes them gamble even when they are already in profit because their greed have convinced them that they can get more with what they have.

[tusandii]

OP made the post here if he would have lost money instead of profit by gambling but he wouldn't have thought like that or he would have thanked his friend in his heart that his friend didn't pay his loan on time. We should be satisfied with what we actually get, gambling with one dollar earned 50 dollars I think he should be satisfied with that much. With one dollar he earned 50 dollars I think he will gamble again with more money hoping for more profit but then the result will not come as he expected. There are many gamblers who have made a lot of money by gambling only on their own luck but it didn't take long for them to lose the amount of money they gained by gambling. It will not take us a day to lose the amount of money we can accumulate in gambling profits over a long period of time. OP has profited here I think now he should be careful and control his greed and then gamble.

I agree with what you said about the satisfaction that the OP got even though it was $50 but that is very good because it is very rare to get a win like that and for his friend who hasn't returned the money it shouldn't be a problem because the OP didn't lose much money and anyway later when the money is returned at least he had another budget to gamble with.
But I really understand the OP's feelings, perhaps he is very disappointed with what his friend did when he was lucky enough to get a big win, but lost that luck because of his friend.

If OP had those $10 the very beginning, it does not mean that he would have made same bets. Maybe he would placed $3-4 bet on same outcome and made few hundreds. Maybe he would add more results to his bet and increase chances of loosing. Maybe he would simply spent those money. We do not know. But I would suggest OP to stop complaining (yes, I think he is here to complain, otherwise he would not have made this topic or give so much details) and be happy that he has caught luck that day.

Gambling is completely based on luck here your luck was on your side due to which you win 50 dollars with 1 dollar. I congratulate you on your victory. But don't be sad that the amount you won was enough for you. But here you are betrayed by your friend.  Your friend could not keep his word to you. People should always remember that it is not okay to betray someone. If you make a promise to a person, it is always better to keep that promise. You tough yourself out of here and remind someone of this story if they ask for money.

That is a great win already but unfortunately he just didn't manage it properly but we can understand how he deal with those situation since he just want to earn more since he think luck still on his side and can easily multiply more the money he won at that time. But he face the reality and also learn a lesson from the mistake he have done since if he could just go away and take what he win for sure he's still happy with the result despite of whatever happened there. But I guess he can't blame anyone for that since maybe that time its not really for him and again what he's friend did maybe its just a sign that he shouldn't take gambling to much since if he expect anything more even if he's already winning then I guess he can possibly experience more lose if he can't control his emotion.

Good predictions.

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as a lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

once we are borrowing some money for our friends then we loss in our bet using that money for me it's a big mistakes because once we loss then the amount  of our bet is more like we need to find some another money for paying those losses. So like what you said above mate it's better to have a mindset that we don't need to borrow a big amount or let say don't borrow an amount that you don't want to loss .

[Solosanz]

It's a right for @OP to complaint because his friend was not fulfill his promise, a good person would return the money before the due. Failing to pay the money before the due is a sign of irresponsible, @OP should avoid to lend his money to him.

If OP had those $10 the very beginning, it does not mean that he would have made same bets. Maybe he would placed $3-4 bet on same outcome and made few hundreds.

Either $3 or $4, at least it's still fit with the subject "I could have won bigger".

Borrowing other people's money to gamble will only cause problems for us and that person, especially if our relationship with him is a friend. If he can't return the money, it will disrupt our friendship because there is a bad feeling between us. But if he can return the money once he has the money, that's fine and our friendship will be fine. If we want to lend money to a friend, we must first see who the person is and what the money will be used for. If it's for gambling, we can refuse it on the grounds that we also need the money. But if our friend uses it to buy his daily needs and returns the money as soon as possible, we can lend him the money. But it's best if we really want to lend him money, we don't need to remember, especially if it's to buy necessities. Who knows, in the future, we will be in his position and need help. He will definitely help us. That is the figure of a friend who is truly a friend.

It is obvious that any risk in lending money exists, but of course the risk increases much more the moment we use it for the game, whether for a friend or not,  what matters is that that money can be returned with everyone and their interests, because there is nothing else that cannot be done, only fulfilling is what we must see and do, for this we must be people who are very emphatic in everything, we must be coherent people who need to do something that It is not about lending money, much less to play in a casino, because obviously the most likely thing is that the money will be lost. In this sense, when we emphasize what can happen, we have to be clear about something, to lend money, it is done for some need. Whether it's an emergency or something similar, that's what I see as something Logical , but the fact of lending to play in a casino? It is not the right thing to do, even though people want to do something, at least I don't recommend doing something like that.

Basically things when it comes to doing better to obtain money , it is not the right thing to be in a casino to enter it there, a casino can not be a secure income for anything, nor see it as a job, much less to take risks of money loans, as I have said before , things can look very good when you can lend money even for a Bitcoin investment, but you have to know how to do this type of thing, not everything is for gambling, not everything is for putting money In the casino, the casino should not be seen as an investment, nor does the casino have the obligation that if a lot of money is deposited, the casino has to give them something because they are depositing, only the casino is a type of business model that has It must be seen as something to do better, this will Always be bad , for whatever it is, the income must be protected and try to increase it, the ideal would be to be able to Manage little Money in a casino and try to save until you have a good Amount.

I say, don't give more than what you have. And while this doesn't fit like a glove in your scenario, it just goes to show how salty you are about the 10 bucks he wasn't able to give you back on time, to which I say "why give him the money in the first place?" Thing is, people will fail to pay loans on time, and unless you have them by the neck, they wouldn't be able to comply to the rules of your loan, I say just be happy with what you got cause the situation would've been different if they did pay you back. Think of it this way, at the very least, on top of winning that much money in a go, you also have 10 bucks on your friend that he's still about to pay. Isn't that amazing? Don't be too salty friend.

That is what I thought as well, it is fine to try to be a good friend and all of that, but anyone that has ever lent money to a friend knows that it is never a good idea to mix fiends and money, as there will always be some sort of issue like paying the loan late or not doing so in full, so if the OP really needed the money as it seems it was the case, then they needed to refuse the loan request claiming they had no spare money to lend, instead of being mad at their friend for doing something any friend has done at least once.

I was convinced of the same thing several times when I didn’t know it yet and lent money to my friends. At first the first one didn’t return the money and I thought how it’s possible to borrow money and then not return it. It turns out that relationships are simply worthless to a person. I thought that this would not happen again and lent a girl I knew money, which she did not return. After this incident, I took off my rose-colored glasses and now I will never lend money to anyone under any circumstances! I also advise others not to do this. Even if they are acquaintances, friends or even your relatives. I came to the conclusion that if you want to quarrel with them, then give them a loan and your relationship with them will be destroyed forever.

[cheezcarls]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Borrowing just to gamble is a big no-no. I am super guilty of that to be honest because when I was broke I had to borrow little money from my friend and he did lend me just to doing a little bit of online gambling. However, I lost all of that money in just a few minutes but good thing I paid him back after a week when I got my salary.

I also hate the fact that someone would say that I am their "last option" in hopes to borrow money from me but have never kept their promises either to pay me back. It is why I have never ever lend money to anyone (except my family and close friends) for a long while now whatever reason they have especially gambling-related or any nonsense.

But in your case yes it's just unfortunate that your friend had to borrow $10 from you only not to keep his promise about paying you back. It's gonna be a lesson learned for you to be honest. Once you have lent money to someone just for them to spend it to gambling or any other reason, they would keep coming back to you as they consider you now as one of their sources.

When it comes to the situation on lending up someone and promised out on giving it back immediately or a few moment or day then i have tons of experience about this specially on real life and this would be basically
in connection into those loved ones or close to me on which funds is been borrowed on which making those sweet promises that they would really be paying it back without any issues and now
on the time that you've been asking for some repayment then they would really be starting to have those kind of behavior as if they wont really be liking on giving it back
They dont know on how important those money on the time that we are really that needed.

Basing up on the situation on which OP had tell or elaborated that his friend do ask for some funds and borrowing it on which it turns out that it is really that the main reason
on why he hadnt been able to make up some huge bets in terms of the amount since someone borrows it and now that the said bets ends up on a win
then it would be on that normal approach that people would really be  that be assuming on things which arent needed to be assumed.

Though you predicted well but blaming your friend for not staking high is not what should come to play, because what if your friend returned that money and you lose after staking with the said amount, despite that your prediction were nice, I don't see it as a sure stuff, prediction are uncertainty, that's to say that if you just know that it is bound to happen and that natural to me, enjoy your returns from the game, as for your friend he might still pay you, just be optimistic, I truly know that if you had lost this game you wouldn't have blame anyone, winning a bet has a way of repositioning ones mindset more especially when you win with a less stake but that just it.

I know it sounds bad but that is just the reality of the situation, and the only way this could be justified was if you could spare the money and you never expected to get that money back and instead of a loan you thought of it as a gift, however even this is just too dangerous, as if you give a loan to a friend with the intention of never getting it back, that person may see you as their own personal bank and begin to ask for even more loans, so all in all lending money to a friend is a terrible idea no matter what.

[ChiBitCTy]

Yeah I hear ya, that's pretty frustrating, but man..if 10 bucks is too much to come out of pocket with that other 10 still being owed to you..does it really makes sense to continue to gamble?  As a financial advisor I see stuff like this and I start to think what might have been a better idea.  If 10 bucks is a lot, you shouldn't be gambling.  Be careful, stay within your means...but againi..that sucks your friend did that to you.

I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Your feeling is valid and charge to experience, If you have any plans to use the money prior lending it to your friend, It's better to choose what's your priority, I'm not a fan of lending money even to my close friends unless it's for emergency purposes, Case to case basis but If he used it to other things like gambling, I will take my own money and not lending him because I know that sometimes, they are the one who doesn't keep their words.

Congratulations on winning your bet. Well, about staking more than you should, I know its kind of painful because you'd have staked $10 as you said if the person you lend your money has returned it. However, look at it this way, what if the person had returned the money and you bet on the game and did not win? You wouldn't have been saying this, you have probably thank God he didn't return you the borrowed money. So don't feel bad, savour your winning and be happy.

[Outhue]

If you want to be a responsible gambler, erase the mindset of you winning bigger money from gambling, you have simply open door into dreaming big with gaming, remember that you are not risking your skills here, because with skills you can believe in yourself that one day you will make it big, your sniper rifle is the skills you have acquired.

This is not the same in gambling, the best shot you have is luck, and luck comes and go all the time, so how can you be so sure that if you risk a lot of money you will make a lot of money? Just because you try with what you have and make a lot of money you are now blaming yourself and your friend, why not think about what could have happened if you lose the game?

Your friend don't pay in time, it's different from friends that don't always pay back when they borrow money from you, I have experience such and I decide to never lend out money to such friend again, but if yours pay up later it is still better than he no paying you back again, be thankful and stop blaming yourself in gambling, you can't predict what to come.

[nullama]

Yeah I hear ya, that's pretty frustrating, but man..if 10 bucks is too much to come out of pocket with that other 10 still being owed to you..does it really makes sense to continue to gamble?  As a financial advisor I see stuff like this and I start to think what might have been a better idea.  If 10 bucks is a lot, you shouldn't be gambling.  Be careful, stay within your means...but againi..that sucks your friend did that to you.

Yeah, it is good to have a specific amount of money that you can lose gambling, because in reality you will most likely lose it.

If you actually need that money, and you gamble it, well, you will have a bad future...

Always assume you are going to lose the money when gambling, because that is the most likely scenario.

Anything you win should be a bonus.

What matters is that the lent money wasn't necessary for OP's winning. She still made a sweet profit even without her friend paying the loan back. It could have been better, it's true, but since the result of the bet was already good, there shouldn't be any complaints about it. Like you said, and if the bet was lost? The result could also be worse! The cup will be always half full or half empty, depending how the person tends to see the situation. In my opinion it's important to practice the ability to see it half more frequently. Optimistic thoughts attract positive vibes and outcomes, maybe not exactly in gambling, but for life...

I think the lesson to learn here is that we should not expect prompt payment from a loan that we made to a friend, and in many cases we may not get our money back, so if you are going to make a loan to a friend those factors need to be taken into account, and if you really need the money for some other activity then you need to refuse the loan, as nothing strains a relationship more than money issues, and we have clear evidence this is the case as even most marriages that end in divorce do so because of money issues.

That great but do many people do it?
Very few gamblers actually gamble with money they can afford to lose and of course most gamblers still view gambling as place to make money and when they lose they try to recover it.

I know what you said is quite good and there have been lots of similar suggestions and advice, in fact I personally often give the same advice.
But if we can always give advice like this, at least there will be benefits for beginner gamblers because there is some information and also warnings that they have to gamble with wiser approach and attitude.

Sometimes gambling is full of sadness and anxiety because they always lose, but gamblers are not aware of the risks in recovering from their losses, they will feel regret if their decision to recover from their losses actually results in much bigger losses.

Yeah, you're right.

And also there's the fact that many gamblers know this but still think it doesn't apply to them, that somehow they are "lucky".

That's also part of the story that casinos want to build, that special person that wins against all the odds, it makes it interesting.

And I understand why people gamble, because it can be fun and it can be very captivating, as the casinos know how to do everything to capture your attention.

[Dzigie]

I don't think you should lend money to a friend who you know has a gambling addiction. It is obvious that he will gamble with the money he borrowed from you. Even if you don't bet or even if this doesn't happen to you, you shouldn't lend money to a friend who you know is addicted to gambling. You can tell white lies to your friends about this. You can tell them that you don't have any money at the moment, or that you borrowed money from someone else and therefore you are not in a very good financial situation. I like my friends who play gambling, they are good people like anybody else, but I know that if I don't keep a good boundary between them and me, our friendship can turn bad.

[panganib999]

At first I was like "that mindset is what's going to get you one day" and after reading your story, while I still harbor the same feelings as before I kind of feel what you're trying to convey now. The fact alone that you trusted your friend with money that I don't think you just dilly-dallied to get is already something, for them to not get back on their words is definitely disappointing. But at least for me, I don't think you should be this disappointed to your bro since at the end of the day, the money that they borrowed is still yours, and you'd probably get it later eventually.

Just think of it this way, at the very least your friend owes you money that you don't even have to gamble for anymore. And while it could've helped increase your gains from when you're all-in-ing in your gambling spree I would say the situation could've been different my friend, so be careful about that. I guess we just have to be very happy about what we have, and not attribute to malice what we could attribute to incompetence.

This is why it would be always better that you shouldnt really be giving up some loan to your friend because if he's a gamble then most likely that loan wont be get paid up.In result? There would really be argumentations on which it would really be connected out when it comes to the money that has been borrowed. If you dont really like yourself to be put up on a situation on which relationship had been affected due to this kind of situation then it would be best that you shouldnt have let borrowed him at all in the first place. Those assumptions about winning big but ended up on being imaginary because
you hadnt been able to make bets or missed out those opportunity then its normal that you would really be having that kind of blaming time or thing towards to those who had stopped you on doing so.

And I think the same, I have loaned money to my friends on the past and it is always a pain to try to get that money back, so you only have two options, one is to loan that money but treat it as a gift instead, that way when you do not get paid you will not be mad about it, and your second option is to not give the loan at all, which when taking into account that most loans of this type are asked to buy something your friend does not really need, then you are justified on denying their loan even if you have the money in hand to do so.

[Zanab247]

I say, don't give more than what you have. And while this doesn't fit like a glove in your scenario, it just goes to show how salty you are about the 10 bucks he wasn't able to give you back on time, to which I say "why give him the money in the first place?" Thing is, people will fail to pay loans on time, and unless you have them by the neck, they wouldn't be able to comply to the rules of your loan, I say just be happy with what you got cause the situation would've been different if they did pay you back. Think of it this way, at the very least, on top of winning that much money in a go, you also have 10 bucks on your friend that he's still about to pay. Isn't that amazing? Don't be too salty friend.

This your story is part of some of the things gamblers must experience some time that will make them to increase the amount of money they use to play bet or decrease the amount of money they are using to play in the gambling center. If you don't play with your satisfaction in that particular game you won doesn't mean if you have that huge amount of money to play you can win but anytime you win just know that you win by luck not by the money you used to bet in that particular game.

Don't forget that money will finish but what you did to that your friend you borrowed the money will not forget you in his life, and I don't think he purposely do what he did not to fulfill his promise he made to pay back the money.

[boyptc]

IMO, it won't be bigger or the same because this is how this universe works. If you try to do something different in the past then you won't have the result that you've got.

So, just be it and let it all happen when it's with the results but I agree that your friend you have paid you already.

This is why I don't lend my friends anymore, if they ask me little money, I wouldn't expect it to be back and I'll just tell them that pay it whenever they are comfortable.

Sometimes i do have some money which is really just that enough for me and when your friend do ask out some amount and you've failed on granting out such request, then they would suddenly changed up their mood or the way they treat you. This is why as much as i could then i would really be that letting them borrow because i dont like for relationship to be broken just because of those mere amounts. Speaking about those results then it is really just that normal that you would really be having those kind of assumptions that if we do able to bet that bigger then we might be able to win up that big too and this is something that would circles to your mind all over again and again until it would really be that influence you to play or make bigger bets.

Yeah, people regret not betting more when they win, and regret betting a lot when they lose.

At the end of the day it is just a random event, and you never know the outcome of it until you actually observe the result.

[CODE200]

Now you know better not to let your friend borrow any money from you anymore because they're in the wrong here, they made a promise about the money returning in an hour so it's only natural that they have to face some sort of consequence and that would be the fact that you're not going to tolerate that behavior anymore and that you won't lend him any money anytime soon. I think that your anger is a valid one, that money could've been used to bet and could've made you more money but your friend screwed you over with that promise. The lesson here is that you should know when to lend your money and when not to because no matter what you choose from those actions, they don't have any control over it.

A little PSA to everyone here about lending money, if someone is promising you to return the money that they've loaned you in a specific time or date without you telling them what date or time they will pay it back, you're most likely not gonna see that money anytime soon because that person's going to take their time with that money.

It little surprising, isn't it, to see those gamblers who consider money very valuable and decide to use it in gambling, but they make this valuable thing disappear without any proper restrictions.
Big wins can be very enjoyable and really profitable for most gamblers but the pursuit of victory cannot always end in happiness or profit because there are losses that always happen to them, even in quite large amounts.
We all know that casinos always provide attractive offers and make us lulled by limits and self-control, for example they offer bets with high odds, this will make gamblers lose control and their awareness.
But this is not the casino fault because they are in business and make as much money as possible by making some attractive offers.
And of course we as gamblers must really be able to understand it, we must be able to take several steps that are much more responsible, such as only using small amount of money to gamble and not trying to hope for much bigger win.

[Mia Chloe]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Kind of you to have borrowed your friend some money you intended for something else. Yes blaming him is something normal. However, it really doesn't count any more as the bet has already been placed and the results already out. you didn't stake extra because you didn't have  a full trust that those odds would favor you. I believe if you knew you would have won you would have even staked over $200 just to increase your winnings.

Most gambling activities are actually controlled by luck so you never really know if you will win or lose till it has actually happened. So regrets afterwards won't be necessary since they change nothing.
Congratulations on your winning.

[piebeyb]

This is why I don't lend my friends anymore, if they ask me little money, I wouldn't expect it to be back and I'll just tell them that pay it whenever they are comfortable.

It's the same with me and that's one of the reasons why I like playing gambling alone at home without having friends who know. I often gamble on weekends in a private room, so every time I win at gambling, no one can borrow money from me. Honestly, I'm not a stingy person towards my friends, but just because I don't want to collect them in the future, especially because of the debt, the friendship is destroyed and damaged, so it's best not to let many people know that I have money from gambling or my work bonuses. let alone sharing stories on social media.

Using social media should be done wisely because I don't want to share stories or my happy life to the public via social media, it's more important for me because I don't need people to know I'm happy, the point is to gamble for myself and enjoy every game and win. If you lose, no one should know about it except my wife, who has been managing the gambling budget for me.

[Majestic-milf]

 It was generous of you to have borrowed your friend the money but if I were you, I would have made contingency plans Incase that money doesn't come back as planned. See it this way, you borrowed $10 and got back a quadruple of it, so I guess it's a win win situation. Who knows, even if you had all the $10 to bet, who knew if last minute you might just change your mind thinking the money is to much to be used, well I'm just saying as such thought usually creeps up my mind when I want to play such daring games.
 Good thing you didn't get too angry and decided not to play, I feel you would have beat yourself up or probably bore a grudge for that friend.

This is what i dont really like into this type of situation on which it do really looks like that im really that hesitant on asking it out about their loans or borrowed money.
Speaking about those bigger wins then there's nothing you can do, whats done is done and it would really be basing up on the actions that you had made on.

Have you also think about this aspect had in mean he didn't borrow his friend that money who knows if those games could have played as he planned. One thing I want us to understand about gambling is that not when you thought of having a winning you will have it because you may plan it but that day luck may run out of you or anyone out there., Borrowing his friend that money was the reason for him to win that game just as it's said "blessed is the hand that giveth than the one that taketh" so in other hands his luck came as a result of helping his friend out and luck ran into him and he won the game for that day.

[Getmon]

It happens bud, friends borrowing money and not paying back on time. I have my own experiences and several of them did not bother paying. For the same reason, I am more mindful of individuals borrowing cash from me. Additionally, the likelihood of not receiving payment is higher if the money borrowed is smaller just for instance $10.

But do not get too affected by your friend not paying in 3 hours. Just learn from it and do not let him borrow money again even in smaller sums. The most important is that you won with your casino wagers, luck is on you, and you were lucky.

[Samlucky O]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words

You shouldn't be angry at your friend because he didn't keep to his promise as expected. Maybe who know if hw might have been facing hell, or the money you gave him might have save a life. And believe why you are saying such thing is because you won the game. If had it been he brought the money earlier as promised and you staked the game , and it didn't play you would also be angry about him bringing the money on time. So gamble is a game of luck. To me I noticed that when playing with large amounts of money, you will loose but with small unexpected amount gives you wining.

[I_Anime]

The thing is that you should be happy, you won such amount with just $1 staked. One thing I've also noticed on gambling is that most time you stake little amount of funds the chance of winning is most time high.But staking huge amount of cash sometimes is the other way round okay just imagine you staking that $10 and you end up losing everything during the bet. Which you would have prefer losing the $10 through betting or borrow it to friend you know if you lose it on betting the casino owner won't refund your cash back so it's far gone. While your friend can give any time he or she have the money. So just celebrate your winning and forget about the amount you would have win staking $10.

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

What for?

You shouldn't be angry with your friend but be grateful to God that you were able to win. From the beginning, you are at fault, you do not lend what you do not have, and as for me, that money ($10) that you borrowed your friend, you actually do not have it because you wanted to use it for something. But since you had lent it out based on friendship and changed the status from owning to uncertainty, then you should blame yourself.

Aside from that, this is a typical human attitude playing here with you. What if you lose? If you lose, you would appreciate your friend that after all, he saved you of the money. But since you gained, you wanted to crucify him, that is not fair in my thought. Think about it, you had access to much money, and you could liquidate a little of your assets to make that whole bet, but you didn't do it simply because of fear and other considerations. Did you get angry with yourself due to that? If you can't, just let it be and be appreciative that you gained 10 times of your money and stop blaming the person who probably gained nothing.

Exactly, sometimes it will be fair if we think in both directions, by that I mean when we think about the advantages of some of our actions we should Also consider possible disadvantages aswell because most time they Chanel the attention so much on the advantages alone such that they forgot it could have been even worse.

Gambling is literally a game of luck and if by chance you are lucky any day, you shouldn't see to it that you would have done better by making your stakes even bigger, that's greed setting in, asides religious involvement which I don't undermine, he just had a lucky day and should be grateful, if he had lost I'm sure he would have been even grateful the more because he will know that his friend coming to borrow the money helped him saved some cash well enough they he didn't have to loose everything, for me I see this idea of his as greed setting in and nothing much.

She should indeed have been happy with her victory without thinking about the money her friend borrowed. She can ask for her money back if she meets her friend, which can increase his money. She can also place another bet to increase the amount of money but she must be able to place a bet on a team with a chance of winning. So it's better not to think about the money her friend borrowed but focus on trying to increase the amount of money he has now. She could be luckier next time so that the amount of money can increase even more, especially since she only placed a bet with a small amount of money. It was truly a moment that should have made her happy.

[Unbunplease]

History knows no subjunctive moods. If you had acted differently, the results could have been different (maybe quite deplorable). But as it is, you were able to win a lot with a minimal bet - so you should be happy about it, not sad that you lent money to someone else, reducing your betting potential

[MainIbem]

Snip

for me I see this idea of his as greed setting in and nothing much.

Gamblers doesn't know when they are being engulfed with greed and whomever that can not control greed is easily to become an addicted gambler and such people would often lose because at the cause of trying to recover what they have lost they will keep losing. The Truth is always bitter because when you have seen a winning and start regretting for not doubling your money it shows a very strong and strange addiction it could lead to mental disorderliness, mental disorderliness start taking effects when one can't control their emotions towards their winning, their lost or when they tends to have missed a life-changing opportunity at cause of trying to reflect back to all these keeps their minds and think disorder causing either mental stress or heart failure.

[tjtonmoy]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Here's the thing buddy, don't be mad at your friend because he didn't return your money. Imagine you're losing all $10 on that bet and you will be left with nothing. Whatever happens, happens for a good reason. Now you have made $50 from $1 and you still have the $10 in your hand. In total, you can spend $60 later on.
Take everything positively. Maybe one day that friend will come handy just because you lend him $10 in his difficult situation. Do favor to other people and you will get the favor back 10 times.
Be happy with your winning and always bet minimum amount. You will be able to play more and lose less.

Well that's one way to put it when it comes to borrowing money to your friends but if you are looking at the win, well I can call it a nice one because it's not easy to actually secure such winning in this gambling game and whenever you actually win try to appreciate the wins because so many gamblers are actually longing to have such experience.

[Blowon]

I'm sure that in gambling not everyone is as lucky as you. Here everyone has their own luck. but from the website you play on it looks quite foreign. trying a few tens of dollars to play there trying your luck is a good thing. So far, I'm quite bored playing on sites that have been around for a long time. They are fair enough to give winnings but new casino websites usually offer attractive jackpots. I am interested in trying a new website casino.

[vs2014]

It could have been that you could have lost the entire money after placing the bet with 10$. So it was just a game of your luck so you bet 1$ and you win 50$ and there are many such cases in my life. However gambling loans should not be given because if the person loses it will create a bad reaction in his mind which will make him not want to pay you back. I also borrow money from my friends many times but i pay him back. Because it is addiction for me so when i don't have money i may need to borrow so i follow the matter personally.

Lending $10 is not a big deal. And if OP has no other money then that $10 then why is a gambling in the first place? Aren't we supposed to gamble with the money that we can afford to lose? It's none of my business but to me, he could have just added more funds and gamble with that. But he only gambled with $1. Which is not bad considering the winning amount.

And yes, not many gamblers have the luck to make a winning and that is what gives people in gambling to spend more. Just be happy with what you have won.

[Shamm]

Good predictions.

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as a lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

Once we are borrowing any amount of money from our friends and use it for gambling then that's a bad idea cause in the world of gambling we can not assure that everytime we put our bet we will always have a profit but in  reality in gambling it will base on luck once we are too lucky then there's high possibility that we will win a good amount of money but if we are unlucky then Lossing streak has a chance to take over us.

[Su-asa]

I will like to tell you that this should not make you to be mad at your friend, what you should do is that anytime the only money you have is the same money you want to use fur gamble and someone wants to borrow it then you don't have to borrow it to the person, so that what happened to you noe will not repeat it self again.
Most tomes you just have to learn how to say no, it is not all the time you should say yes, if someone wants to borrow money from you and you do t have much to give you should not give because the ending parts of paying back loan can be funny sometimes.

Hopefully, your friend gave you back the Money.

Take it easy and feel good that you got a 5x bigger amount that was borrowed by your friend. and it can also happen if your friend pays the loan as promised you could lose the bet.

I never suggest anyone borrow money for gambling or give a loan to anyone for gambling.

I also agree with what you say , things are Always somehow Arranged for the Better , and to Improve anything , we are people who Always do Whatever it takes to be Able to win in a Casino and that is Acceptable , in Each of us , What we do is Always good luck , if your friend didn't give you those 10usd, what does it Matter as they Said here Before , Imagine that you lost it in any game and that's it, I think that Sometimes this Type of case Prevails more in Friendship than Anything Else , the Money that was lost is not Much , it is something that Does not Have much Meaning when Bought with a Friendship, Perhaps your Brother Needed it much More than you , And Although he was Wrong in not Paying you , one Day he can Tell it to Let's see What he Can do to you , you don't Know , maybe he'll Apologize or he'll Give you the Blame , that can Happen but you have to Turn the Page , There are Benefits that can Lead one to certain causes Such as not Speaking to him Anymore because of money that Wasn't Even much , it was Something that was Very out of the Ordinary.

In some cases when Friends Fight over the Internet , it's just not worth Doing it because at the end of the day there are Things that are more Important , I have a friend who told me that Before he had Friends who Sometimes did things to him that he didn't Like , but That one Bad thing did not Erase Everything you had Shared With him that was Good , that is, Unless he had done something else apart and that had Affected You a lot , because it was Something that Could be done , but in Particular the things When they are Like that in that way they Should be done and Take it with a grain of Salt , that's why I Say , that Friend , I don't think that the bad Thing he did has Erased Other things that must be many Good , that's what we Should see , also as I Said Before , things Have to be Done in a Good way so that Things do not Affect Things Later and Cannot be done in other Ways , you Always have to do Your best to be Able to be good , and Despite Everything , Demonstrate what you are , yes You are a beautiful Person , not Worth the Resentments.

Helping people is quite very important and we should not regret giving arms to someone else over a win in gambling. The money may have solved a problem for him and also saved the person from life troubles. The memory he wouldn't forget, but the money will finish. Hence if Op had won with the 50 dollars, soon he'd spend it all buying things favorable to him, which is not handy in helping a friend. Op, only needs to try again with high amount, next time, if that's what bothers him. However, we need to think along side Op, as its his money and experience. Many a times, in the past, I felt that way and the thoughts wouldn't disappear immediately, but sooner it gets over the gambler's brain. Compared to the trouble the friend who needs the money would have to face if his problems wasn't saved with the money. He'll hardly forget about the treat or help. And somehow, Op, would reap from the help he's given out to a friend.

This user quite accurately guessed 4 events in a row and this is a very good result, but the bet was not so big that he would be very upset if he lost. To each his own, someone likes slot machines or casinos, and someone is very good at betting on sports (I also prefer sports betting) because you don’t get so tired of them and they take less time, and give you more profits in the long run.

[boyptc]

IMO, it won't be bigger or the same because this is how this universe works. If you try to do something different in the past then you won't have the result that you've got.

So, just be it and let it all happen when it's with the results but I agree that your friend you have paid you already.

This is why I don't lend my friends anymore, if they ask me little money, I wouldn't expect it to be back and I'll just tell them that pay it whenever they are comfortable.

Yeah, people regret not betting more when they win, and regret betting a lot when they lose.

At the end of the day it is just a random event, and you never know the outcome of it until you actually observe the result.

That's true.

It is spontaneous when something like this happens. So don't regret that you've won more if you have that money because you could have lost it more.

Much better that you've won and not dwelled into regardless of the situation that you have been in. And to all folks that likes to take loans without paying them on time, change for the better this 2024.

[Spaceman1000$]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

Don't be angry about your friend but rather you should be happy about the fact that you are able to win your prediction, looking at the games you predicted and the outcome I can really tell that you are a good predictor, using $1 to win $50 that's a good predicting outcome. Though you could have won more money if your friend had given you back the money you borrowed him, but then half bread they say is better than none.

[Negotiation]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words

You shouldn't be angry at your friend because he didn't keep to his promise as expected. Maybe who know if hw might have been facing hell, or the money you gave him might have save a life. And believe why you are saying such thing is because you won the game. If had it been he brought the money earlier as promised and you staked the game , and it didn't play you would also be angry about him bringing the money on time. So gamble is a game of luck. To me I noticed that when playing with large amounts of money, you will loose but with small unexpected amount gives you wining.

I agree that the gambling game is full of fortune and when will win and when there is a possibility of losing no one can say that it is better to win with a small amount of anger. There will be no anger and no need to borrow money in time. To help make a decision by evaluating the good and evil of online casinos it is better to take the minimum bet by choosing the perfect platform for your bet effort. If you are happy with a small amount you can get more later.

[Kelvinid]

I am interested in trying a new website casino.

Then I would say that you should be careful on those sites that offer such a thing because most of them are totally scams, you will just find it out later when already trust them. Of course, they will offer attractive wins to catch the attention of the gamblers while established casinos no longer look for new gamblers instead, they will protect their old gamblers and remain using their platform.

For me, it doesn't matter if the reward is not huge at least, I was into the platform that offers a fair game.

[virasisog]

If you are lending money to a friend make sure that it is an amount of money that you will need ASAP, people tend to borrow money fast but they always pay it late or worse they never pay at all. You should just move on because it's already a win, I always keep in mind that a win will always be a win. We will always have a thought at the back of our head that "if only I could've bet higher", we always have this thought when we win something. Take note this is just our greedy side, we will not know what the outcome will be if your bet is of different amount, if you bet higher will the outcome be the same? Just think of it that way and be thankful of your winnings.

That's what happens to people who borrow from other people, which disappoints the people who lent them money because they have to wait for the borrower to return the money. There are even friends who don't return their money at all. Even after we collected it, they still said they didn't have the money. We have to be careful when lending money to our friends, and it is better to refuse them than to wait a long time for them to return the money. But with her winnings, she no longer needed to wait for her friend to return the money. Perhaps her friend has disappeared and doesn't want to return the money, so forget about him, and maybe she can place another bet with the winnings.

You have all the right to be angry at your friend, but remember that if things have gone south, you'll not have come here to appreciate your friend for saving you. Luck was not very much on your side this time around.

I will not relent to commend you for the level of discipline you displayed by not touching the coins in your possession that you've not marked out for gambling. That's a though decision you took, and to a great extent, you exhibited self control which is what is preached on a daily in gambling life and one that should be complimented. This attitude you displayed in gambling is worth emulating by others with less self-control and discipline towards gambling.

Forgive your friend, the world have not ended and your luck will shine again pretty soon, its just a matter of time.

What makes you think if he had not taken that money from you, that bet stake would have been more than what you placed, secondly, who knows maybe that money he took away from you could have been the reason you would have made mistakes and loose everything, you may not have played the exact way you did this if you would have been privileged to have that money with you and that could also have been the reason for you to have lost the bet as well, gambling is risk as you know, you can't just predict what may happen next after your conclusion on the game played.

That's exactly what it is. OP must understand that all this is random, and this does not mean at all that he would have won more. Being angry for this reason that a friend did not give him $10 is completely pointless, this is the same as we will be sad that tomorrow there will be bad weather. We cannot influence it in any way, like luck in gambling games. I think that I would be happy about the win, and not angry, but at the same time, no one canceled the obligation to repay the debt. Although I have already written here more than once in other topics that I have a very principled attitude towards debt. If you lend money to friends or relatives, be prepared for the fact that there will be less of them, because sooner or later they will not return your money to you.

If you would lend out money you should expect that there is a chance that their payment could be delayed.
If you would be mad by lending money for him, then you should just explain that you also needed the money.
Don't hold it against him, if you really wants to add more to that bet you could by converting your coins as you said, but you didn't do it, so it was also on you.

[rachael9385]

Exactly, as a friend he is to me, I didn't put that in mind but that's not my problem anymore though.
Although, as a gambler, you will not know when you will win and when you will lose, so I have learned that even if one makes you to lose, you should not be mad at him or her because gambling is not 100% guaranteed, but what I really certain about is that ines it is the winning time, you should try to win as much ad you can and not to let the opportunity of luck to pass aways bec you have win small money, meanwhile it will talk a miles for luck to come again.

That’s the sort of idea or notion that dishes out loses yo gamblers.

Believe me, you won just what you deserve no question and you took a bet out of what will give you pease of mind except, your telling me your a huge stake gambler of which, $10 doesn’t make that mark really but, it’s worth something to kick the category.

You gambled on an unsure event and like every other bet or gamble, if you lost, you would have thanked your friend but now that you won, you’re kicking yourself. If you were sure that you would win, I don’t think not having to sell just the amount of coin equivalent yo $10 would have been an option. After all, you could have bought even $50 worth of it back should you have won.

So, you won and the best thing with you now is just yo enjoy your win.

We are sometimes very ungrateful to Ourselves and we demand much more from ourselves, which is not bad, but it is necessary to do other things, for example when we are in a place where things are basically done to be better, well, it is good , Always We are going to look for money in a casino, I think that that feeling is Impossible to get rid of , or to be without it , Therefore when we do other things we hate to leave aside what we should do wrongly, but it is a thousand times preferable to have won something and not go through defeat, that will always be a Premise , when things are tried to be done well we have to take advantage of them, that is why we should be pleased with the good things that happen to us, that we Would have won more ? maybe yes , maybe not , but something that Adds and not Subtracts will Always be Better , of course that is a very vision of the game, whenever we win something no matter how little, it is a reason to be well, to celebrate it and not give it up It will never happen, but when you do other types of Things , such as Thinking that we can do things Beyond our Limits, I do not Recommend it.

When we are in perfect condition to bet or make any move so that things are quite good for us it is something Grea t, but I consider that the best things that come to us and having a certain stroke of luck is to bet on the slots, but the slots always They require a lot of luck and they always end up being or having a lot of money, that is something that Cannot be Denied , now , based on thi s, we all Know that the only game that we can win a lot by betting little is the slots, but it is something which turns out to be contradictory but real , a Little is a lot , but it takes a lot to be able to achieve or win a lot, it is somewhat complicated , but this is what makes games of Chance always have that tinge of being reckless and at the same time Exciting.

Yeah, greed gets in the way sometimes.

It is a random event, and the most probable outcome is to lose, so they were lucky this time.

They probably would have not been happy if they lose more money, so they bet the right amount in my mind.

The gambler should have the specific source for the money to play gambling game,because the same gamblers will face the consequences by no funds at certain situations.The gambler should have huge resources for money,at the loss time we earn more in gambling,So the gambler should have money to regain with the same knowledge in the gambling site.If the gambler come to game after certain period of time,surely he will forget the entire game.So the output after the gap in the gambling will leads to the loss,everything in the game should be observed by the gambler to get the more technical skills in the game.

It would be a good call or missed call, we do know gambling on which outcomes cant really be determined until its been prove out or outcomes been known. You would really be having that kind of
regrets deep inside if you do have that kind of missed opportunities when you do let someone borrowed your fund but well its already too late because whats done is done and you cant really take it back.
This is why it would be that best that you should really just move on and forget into those things because if you do keep on minding with those past events it would really just give out that disappointment
and would really be that resulting that you might really be the reason that you would really be betting even more once you do have the money because you do assume that
you might be able to hit up on the same fate which it is actually that wrong.

You could have won bigger!
That’s the sort of idea or notion that dishes out loses yo gamblers.

Believe me, you won just what you deserve no question and you took a bet out of what will give you pease of mind except, your telling me your a huge stake gambler of which, $10 doesn’t make that mark really but, it’s worth something to kick the category.

You gambled on an unsure event and like every other bet or gamble, if you lost, you would have thanked your friend but now that you won, you’re kicking yourself. If you were sure that you would win, I don’t think not having to sell just the amount of coin equivalent yo $10 would have been an option. After all, you could have bought even $50 worth of it back should you have won.

So, you won and the best thing with you now is just yo enjoy your win.

Yeah, greed gets in the way sometimes.

It is a random event, and the most probable outcome is to lose, so they were lucky this time.

They probably would have not been happy if they lose more money, so they bet the right amount in my mind.

Greed has become a problem that is felt and experienced by many gamblers, because in my opinion, someone who gambles by wanting a bigger win will of course gamble by following their greed, which also carries a big risk, because to get a big win. Of course, we have to bet bigger amounts and of course we have to be brave enough to take risks, because there are people who gamble with big bets but are not ready for the risks that will occur, such as losing large amounts of money, even though that is certain.
and it's true what you said that gambling is a random game and the big possibility is losing because the chance of losing is greater than the chance of winning, so many people gamble by only getting a win, especially with a big win, it's very rare for anyone to get it. and in my opinion big wins can be obtained even with small capital as long as we have strong luck, but no one knows whether luck is on our side.

[KiaKia]

I could have been happy that my money is with my friend even if I won in gambling, because I could have lost too, so far he is going to pay you back why worry?

You could have won big indeed, but you could have also lose big as well, you don't have to blame him, the role he played that day could have save you from losing your whole bankroll too.

I would rather win very little in gambling instead of chasing the biggest wins, because gambling is a game of lucky and the chances of losing big is also present, but if you risk very little and win some money it's free money, it doesn't have to be millions of dollars.

Normally gamblers face this type of expression when they win, because they've been losing for quite a significant amount of time. Hence, if the gambler then sees a win, they'll wish the wagered money was a huge amount of money. This happens due to the need to win big amount too. But, as you said, gambling is a tricky game and those who don't understand this would wager huge amount and lose it. Hopefully Op was meant to win the game, but assuming his friend didn't borrow the money she could have spent a high amount, then added some games to the list which could have resulted to a lose. It's fine Op takes the win and celebrate. The most aspect of it is, Op will definitely spend the money. It's better the friend is with the money, and will pay when Op needs the money. He could pay with interest. We all can feel this way, but it should be considered as part of the fun.

The point is to be consistent because it is impossible to restrain yourself from being greedy when you win, usually people will feel dissatisfied with a small win but if you feel satisfied with a small win it indicates you are a responsible gambler so you know when to gamble and when. You have to stop gambling, of course as a gambler you have to be able to control your greed.

It's true what you say, don't expect to win millions of dollars, let alone chase it, at least winning a little is more than enough, not always the dealer will be easy to beat, everything requires extraordinary luck, always enjoy the slightest win, as long as it is consistent, of course it will feel good to be able to win, even though We know that sometimes there are more losses than wins, there's no harm in enjoying the victory and stopping playing

Yes, the key thing is to be consistent.

That's how you actually get results, by consistently doing something (or not doing something).

Of course it's fine if from time to time you fail, but if you manage to consistently do it right, you will see a change in your life.

This applies to gambling but also to anything else in life.

[Slow death]

When playing gambling, the person should not have thoughts like if I did this I would have made more profit or if the person had won then start thinking that if I had continued playing then I would have been able to obtain more profits, this thought It is not useful in gambling because it is not easy for a player to beat the house, when a person manages to win in a casino game that depends on luck, so that person's victory depended on luck, it was not something that would easily be repeated when the person wants, on the contrary, when the person continues playing, then the person has lost a lot

at the end of the day the person will lose everything they won, I usually say that when a person plays in a casino and manages to be lucky enough to win a lot, when that person pays all that money, the casino is not losing anything, because that person will continue playing to the point of losing in sequences and the day the person picks up a calculating machine to find out how much he lost and how much he won since he started playing, then the person will discover that from the beginning he was losing, he was just lucky to have a gain in a certain amount of time. moment, but that win will not change the scenario of the defeats he has had since he started getting involved with gambling, few people have time to calculate how much they are losing

If someone borrows money from me, it would be better for them to use it for important things, such as survival, because they don't have their weekly or monthly income yet. I have often lent them for needs like that because I know we need to help people with difficulty making ends meet. I never told them to return the money because I lent them according to my ability, so I didn't think about asking for the money back. But I have also met people or friends who borrowed money with the promise of returning it next week, but they didn't return the money and instead disappeared and didn't give me any news. For that one, I won't lend him any more money because he's already acting like that.

We can return the money if we win, but what if we lose? How can we return the money? We will have difficulty returning the money. Therefore, we should never borrow money to gamble because there is no guarantee that we can win from gambling. We could lose all the borrowed money, and it will be difficult to return the money. However, we must be able to restrain ourselves by not borrowing money from anyone to gamble because that will only give us problems. With the self-control that we have learned previously, we can restrain ourselves from that, and we should do other things that can provide benefits and make money from other things.

[gabbie2010]

If you had lost the bet you would have been happy not to have collected $10 from your friend now reverse is case you felt sad for not getting $10 from your friend which would have earn you $500 if you had bet with the whole money, of course your reaction to the outcome of the situation is normal, however you should count yourself lucky for winning $50 bet remember this proverb "half a loaf is better than none" you needed to move on after the missed opportunity there are lot of betting opportunities ahead though bet wisely and responsibly to avoid addiction or have a mindset of winning massively by staking high.

If gambling is not about winning and losing or if there is only a chance of winning and there is absolutely no possibility of risk occurring then obviously there is no problem if you want to borrow money to gamble, but obviously as you said about what if we lose? of course it will be very difficult to feel okay when you are in a situation like that, which is why it is always not recommended to gamble using borrowed money, you will get a lot of pressure and problems from the gambling you do and also from the money you borrow.

So obviously we should emphasize a proper understanding of gambling and also maintain awareness, I think with that you will not be rash in making every decision, you will be more able to consider everything with a precaution for the sake of financial balance.

[noormcs5]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Well, i do not think that this is the right thinking. What if you had that 10$ with you and you have placed the bet and lost it all. Anything could have happened. If everyone was sure that they would have won, they could put each and every penny on the bet and earn a lot of money, while this is not how things works.

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

You can be angry on your friend that he did not return you the money on time but do not think that you would have won more money. Gambling is all about algorithms and luck. Who knows that if you changed the amount to 10$, you would have got the opposite result that may not be in your favour.

Even those that had a method to become profitable gamblers cannot afford to ask for a loan to gamble, and that is because even they cannot be sure they are going to win the next bet as they are still relying on things going their way in order to get a win, and when that is the case people need to avoid at all costs to ask for a loan, as if they do and they lose now they will have to pay that money back with interests or fail to pay a friend or a family member on time, something that can strain your relationship really fast.

We will be in unpleasant situations and conditions because we know each other well, and because of money problems, our relationship with him will become uncomfortable. That's what we have to think about, but it seems like people who want to borrow money from us won't think about it because what's important to them is how they can get their money immediately. If this happens, we shouldn't lend money to anyone who wants to use the money for gambling because that will make each of us feel uncomfortable.

We must explain to people who want to borrow money to gamble that this will only make things difficult for us. It would be better for him to use his money for other things besides gambling.

It's not a good thing to take out a loan to gamble, because we can't be sure of winning the game we're playing and if we force ourselves to borrow money to gamble, we'll certainly have problems if we don't win and have to pay the loan we've borrowed and also We will get a lot of problems if we use our gambling money from loans, so it would be better for us to gamble according to our financial conditions and not spend all our income on gambling.

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason).

What would you do if you had lost this bet ? Would you become happy that your friend didn't keep his word ?
You wouldn't have placed a bet of $10 and lost it in that case. Things don't work that way.
You can be mad at him for not keeping his word and not returning the money at the right time.
But don't be mad at him just because you could have used more money to place the bet that you won.
You could have lost too. It's all just luck and so stay happy and enjoy your returns.

Absolutely.

That's how most people actually behave.

When they win, they wanted to gamble more, and they take all the credit.

If they lose, they wanted to gamble less, and they blame everyone else about it.

[SeaCoinCollector.]

Congrats on your win! It's normal for you to feel conflicted after what happened with your friend, but it's great that you were able to turn a small win into a big win. Situations that you didn't expect can sometimes deliver pleasant surprises. You should focus on the good things that happened, and who knows, your luck might get even better in the future. Congratulations!

[Richbased]

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I don't see any reason why you should be angry at your friend because one, he's your friend and secondly, what if you didn't win the bet? You would have been glad you borrowed him part of the money. Moreover, you weren't so sure about the game playing because regardless of the fact that you won the bet, you can't really be frank to me that you had no other money with you rather than the one you used in playing the game, though it might also be that you've set out your budget on the amount you wish to gamble with but in summary, just be happy for the one you won because if I ask you if you've won bets higher than that amount since then, we Will find out that you've not won such an amount again or even if you do it's not on several occasions.

Anyone believing too much in the success of their betting is not wise as the surest bets could end up in losses which calls for caution by everyone. Think of it, is it not even overconfidence that someone would say they have a sure winning strategy in gambling and because of this look for loans to bet? I do not see the good end here even if the person is given the loan. I have seen such cases before that they will be making mouths, even some would approach me that I should be their betting sponsor thereby slipping the profit. But I asked them, who will split the losses with me in case they lose as well? Seeing the lives of these guys, you will know that if they are truly winners and not just having big mouths in gambling, they would have improved their living all by themselves. Imagine, they are working, but for their addiction to gambling, they will be wasting most of their earnings and still looking for ways to cajole me to join their idiocy. This is very bad.

[blockman]

@rachael OP or everyone that have the same scenario as you. You just have to accept what has happened and it's a situational moment that we always used to say or think that say with these what if moments of our lives. We have no time machine and we can't go back in the past. What we can do is to embrace the moment and cherish that moment that you've won such amounts because no one's going to do it for you but only you. Maybe disconnect that friend to your life and don't give any loans again ever.

Borrowing or lending money for gambling purposes can strain relationships and create uncomfortable situations. Even if you want to, you need to consider the potential consequences and communicate openly about the associated risks. Explaining how lending money for gambling could negatively affect the relationship emphasizes the importance of maintaining healthy connections and encourages responsible financial behavior.

People who are seeking money for gambling may be focused on their immediate needs, but it's crucial to make them aware of the potential long-term consequences. Setting boundaries and refusing to lend money for gambling purposes is a reasonable and self-protective decision. It sends a clear message about the values and priorities you uphold. It's an act of self-care that can contribute to maintaining healthier relationships and avoiding unnecessary financial strain.

That is why if we do not want our friendship with friends to become uncomfortable, we should not borrow or lend money for gambling purposes. There are many cases like that where friendships end up breaking down, and they even become enemies with each other because of small problems. Money problems are often serious problems that can affect the relationship between both parties and ultimately can also affect other friends. We must be able to take good care of ourselves so that we don't experience unpleasant incidents, especially with our friends.

If people look for money from gambling to be able to make money to meet their daily needs, they won't make money because it is difficult to get. They could actually lose their money if they aim like that because gambling is not a place that can give money. They won't be able to make money every day from gambling, so they don't need to. But if they borrow money from anyone to gamble, it means they don't care about themselves and their families because there are risks behind borrowing money that they might not even think about.

Borrowing some money to our friends and left message or  saying that you will return it in a few hours or days then that is a big problem. Cause nowadays those people who are asking to borrow some of your money and promised that they will return it all away and after an hours, days or even week's there's no money coming from you   then one thing for sure that friend of yours are not afraid of you nor he take the advantage of your friendship in order to borrow some money.

Instead of gambling, there is another way for you to get the money back or pay off the debts you owe other people. You could look for a better job or find another way to make extra money that you believe will help you pay off your debts. After all, if someone only concentrates on gambling as a source of income, they are not thinking clearly and are only living for the moment. They are looking for easy money, but if they lose well, say goodbye to their money.
 
Therefore, why don't we concentrate on long-term financial goals like having our own savings and investments and creating a secure financial future instead of dangerous behaviors like borrowing money for gambling?

Someone will inevitably borrow money from you because that's how we all make enough to survive and purchase necessities. If you're tight on cash, your only option is to borrow money from friends or family. However, there are always some who pledge to pay up their loan on the specified day but ultimately postpone it for personal reasons.
 
It's reasonable that if we win later and think we could have earned more if our friend's money had been returned sooner, we would experience regret or a sense of lost opportunity.
This kind of reaction is natural in situations where the outcome could have been different based on the circumstances. and because of this, we ought to refrain from setting any sort of repayment expectation in order to prevent misunderstandings and disappointments.

We can return the money if we win, but what if we lose? How can we return the money? We will have difficulty returning the money. Therefore, we should never borrow money to gamble because there is no guarantee that we can win from gambling. We could lose all the borrowed money, and it will be difficult to return the money. However, we must be able to restrain ourselves by not borrowing money from anyone to gamble because that will only give us problems. With the self-control that we have learned previously, we can restrain ourselves from that, and we should do other things that can provide benefits and make money from other things.

Well, that's true especially if you are gonna take a loan just for gambling, you are just making your own problem that way. The thing is some people consider gambling as an investment where you can make your money grow like the OP from $1 to $50, but the thing is it depends on the financial status of a person if they can afford to gamble with having extra money then that's fine as long as you gamble responsibly if you have issue financially then choose to borrow money to gamble hoping to win and pay your debt, then that's the worst case scenario.

Therefore, why don't we concentrate on long-term financial goals like having our own savings and investments and creating a secure financial future instead of dangerous behaviors like borrowing money for gambling?

People are tempted to win even with the lower chances of winning cause you wouldn't know that a one-time bet could change your life. But it is a dumb thing to do to risk your loans where the chances of winning rely on pure luck.

[GxSTxV]

It is unfortunate that your friend didn't keep his word and give you back your money in time, otherwise you would've won more than just 50$≈.
But it is a lesson for you so next time you will be more ready to gamble with the right amount of money and have the opportunity to win more from your betting. Meanwhile, you shouldn't feel bad because at least you earned that bet which is very impressive.
I see that you have the skills and vision in sport betting and I believe that you are going to face more and better opportunities in the future but just make sure to be ready and have the right amount for betting to not miss such big chances and win bigger.

When it comes on minding on how to pay up debts then people would usually be sticking into those options on which they do saw that it would be the fastest way on doing so and this would really be through gambling
on which this is something that the first choice to those who dont really like on doing hard work or would really be liking for everything would be on fast pace. No one really likes into those slow way
on resolving things out and this is why they would really be having those kind of choices on which they would really be able to see that acquiring or making things possible is on there but majority do really fail
on what are the things that they should gonna do or thinking up about the risks involved on which they would really be that busting up all the money that they do have.

Having those kind of regrets and sayings into your mind or deep inside telling that you should have win bigger if you have put up bigger or you havent let those funds been borrowed
then you would be saying the opposite thing on the time that you do see that it is really a lost bet. It is really just that normal that you would be thinking or saying
the opposite if the result would really be winning on which it would be a normal approach i should say.

[junder]

Borrowing some money to our friends and left message or  saying that you will return it in a few hours or days then that is a big problem. Cause nowadays those people who are asking to borrow some of your money and promised that they will return it all away and after an hours, days or even week's there's no money coming from you   then one thing for sure that friend of yours are not afraid of you nor he take the advantage of your friendship in order to borrow some money.

That's true, because outside of gambling I also feel that way, when my friend borrowed money for reasons that weren't for gambling, he promised to pay it back within the specified time period, but in reality it wasn't like that, he didn't pay at the time he said. Moreover, if they borrow money to gamble and say they will pay it back within a predetermined time, that doesn't guarantee they will actually pay it back, because obviously the chance of winning at gambling is very slim, if they say that I think it's just nonsense. Moreover, I myself would not lend money to other people if the purpose was to gamble, because if I did that I would be giving way for them to become addicted to gambling.

I hope you don't be careless with money matters, because it can affect a relationship, whether it's a family, partner or friendship, with those who can't pay off their debts, of course it will make them feel awkward with each other, especially for the borrower who is clearly embarrassed because he can't. returning what they should return at the time set by their own mouths.

Yes, the situation experienced by the OP is quite annoying, but however it is something that should have happened, if you feel sorry for lending money to his friend I think it is a natural thing because I'm sure all gamblers who experience such situations will also feel the same way, but here he is still quite lucky because at least he can still get a win even though the amount is not too large. This is a good experience, but I don't think it's necessary to focus too much on making it a lesson, for fear that in the next session he will do things that are beyond his ability such as always putting large amounts in the hope of getting lucky like before, we must remember that after all this is gambling which means that different times will have different results too.

So stay focused by only putting the amount we can be responsible for, it's better than putting a large amount but in the end it doesn't match the wishes and obviously you will feel upset and maybe emotional and also because even though there is a chance of winning on the other hand you must understand that it is nothing more than a "chance" which may not necessarily be 100% at the end of the session.

[nullama]

Congrats on your win! It's normal for you to feel conflicted after what happened with your friend, but it's great that you were able to turn a small win into a big win. Situations that you didn't expect can sometimes deliver pleasant surprises. You should focus on the good things that happened, and who knows, your luck might get even better in the future. Congratulations!

Yeah, it is best to simply enjoy the present, specially when they just won something.

At the end of the day, there is no point thinking too much about the past, because there's no way to change it.

The past is history. You can only learn from it, and move on.

[FinePoine0]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I would like to advise you something about lending money, you lend him money to save his opportunity or danger. But you are not able to pay the money at that time, but if you had kept more money at that time, your winnings would have been more and your benefits would have increased.You pressure your friend to save money, pressure him to pay you back quickly. I bet your prediction is very good and according to the strategy you won. And that's how you increase your bet even more.

[Strongkored]

~snip~
What would you do if you had lost this bet ? Would you become happy that your friend didn't keep his word ?
You wouldn't have placed a bet of $10 and lost it in that case. Things don't work that way.
You can be mad at him for not keeping his word and not returning the money at the right time.
But don't be mad at him just because you could have used more money to place the bet that you won.
You could have lost too. It's all just luck and so stay happy and enjoy your returns.

Absolutely.

That's how most people actually behave.

When they win, they wanted to gamble more, and they take all the credit.

If they lose, they wanted to gamble less, and they blame everyone else about it.

That's right, because people will always be happier when they can get more and forget that things could be the other way around, and under any circumstances people who can't accept the results well will try to find something or someone else to blame, because it has failed them to get a lot, or which has caused him to lose a lot, this is a fact that happens a lot and rarely do people learn that whatever the result must be acceptable because that is what we deserve, and there is no need to think about what ifs and ifs because it is just an if it is not a definite situation happen.

[LUCKMCFLY]

It is unfortunate that your friend didn't keep his word and give you back your money in time, otherwise you would've won more than just 50$˜.
But it is a lesson for you so next time you will be more ready to gamble with the right amount of money and have the opportunity to win more from your betting. Meanwhile, you shouldn't feel bad because at least you earned that bet which is very impressive.
I see that you have the skills and vision in sport betting and I believe that you are going to face more and better opportunities in the future but just make sure to be ready and have the right amount for betting to not miss such big chances and win bigger.

I also think the same, here the most important thing is what has been learned, there is no other way, with this type of things a player gains more Experience in what he Should and should not do, for that reason we will always be generating more skills. things are fine, in a casino one can make mistakes, it is something very normal and sometimes things don't go as desired , but Mainly what is learned is what will make us earn more money when a situation arises. Similarly, you already know how it should be done, in this sense each of us Knows what moves should be made, that things are always better done with our own money, in any case always that we are with a magic , or friends, let our juice always be for us, when we do something between two or for another person, then it is done with as much restraint as possible, this can avoid many things.

This also reminds me of a thread where it was said that with every gain or every loss, you have to tell your partner when you were making a movie or something, but always when things are done with partners and with other hands, it is not good to do it like that, because basically things always end in fights, in misunderstandings and that is what should be avoided the most, for us not to fall into these things it is always good to have and do our things in the casinos, alone, without lending money or doing something trivial , not only to avoid what happened to OP, but also to go through situations that are unpleasant for everyone, this is what we must draw as a conclusion so that no more situations like these happen, now that OP stopped liking it, it was something which I do not understand well, because he would have taken more risks, but since he is in control of his actions, I will always think that when it comes to ownership things are delicate , obviously he is always delicate with money, any situation he takes can happen for the good of one as a player.

[TimtheYoutuber]

That is still a very nice parlay win!

Instead of gambling, there is another way for you to get the money back or pay off the debts you owe other people. You could look for a better job or find another way to make extra money that you believe will help you pay off your debts. After all, if someone only concentrates on gambling as a source of income, they are not thinking clearly and are only living for the moment. They are looking for easy money, but if they lose well, say goodbye to their money.
 
Therefore, why don't we concentrate on long-term financial goals like having our own savings and investments and creating a secure financial future instead of dangerous behaviors like borrowing money for gambling?

Indeed, there are other ways to pay off the debt by looking for work, but the problem is that when someone is familiar with gambling, he or she will probably want to get to know more about gambling and will again seek debt from other people. He probably won't think about getting a job to pay off his debts because he thinks it's hard. That's why someone doesn't need to borrow money to gamble, and if they feel that gambling has brought bad things to them, they should immediately leave gambling as soon as possible so they don't experience bad things.

Yes, your suggestion makes more sense. We prepare for our future and families by having savings and investments. This will give good results in the future, especially if we can increase the amount of savings and investments by reducing monthly expenses. It will provide better results for us and our families so that our lives will change.

[nullama]

That's right, because people will always be happier when they can get more and forget that things could be the other way around, and under any circumstances people who can't accept the results well will try to find something or someone else to blame, because it has failed them to get a lot, or which has caused him to lose a lot, this is a fact that happens a lot and rarely do people learn that whatever the result must be acceptable because that is what we deserve, and there is no need to think about what ifs and ifs because it is just an if it is not a definite situation happen.

Yes, the past is done.

There is nothing you can do to change the past. It's there to remind you of how you should live your present to get a better future.

People that stay in the past usually don't get too far.

[blckhawk]

the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours

The moment that he said this, you should've never let that man get the money because that's a big sign that the person that's trying to borrow that money from you isn't going to respect you or the promise that they've given about the loan, too bad you could've made a bigger bet but it is what it is, the thing that you can do in that situation is to just to learn not to let that person borrow money from you again. Remember that when it comes to money, this is bound to happen, people not keeping their word and with those kinds of promises they actually make you let your guard down against them because it's a form of assurance that the money is going to go back to you.

Could have won bigger, or could have lost more. We would never know that. Smart move would be stop living with the past and move on. Smart move would be not being angry on a friend because of those  $10. If he was really a friend, that helping a friend cost more than winning more money. If they were not good friend, that OP should also be happy, because for only $10 he has get rid of a fake friend. $10 for finding out who you really can trust is nothing, believe me. From that situation OP should have learned, that friends > money. He would have won more and spend them, but friend will always be friend. It is better not to measure everything with money.

Yes.

At the end of the day the past helps us to remember so that we don't make the same mistake again and again.

The future is a place where we want to be, a goal.

If you focus on the past, you become depressed.

If you focus on the future, you become anxious.

The present is where life happens. If you are focused on the present, you can have a great life.

In fact, what we have to do is have skeptical attitude when engaging in gambling activities, whether it is friend of ours or even anyone who may be close to us, but if it is related to gambling, it is necessary to not believe in them.
No one knows whether it is good or bad for us, but we have to think of it as bad thing so that we don't feel the results may be disappointing, after all, we may not be able to accept everything.
In gambling, luck is the main factor in success and in luck only we ourselves can bring it depending on what luck we have.
There are many incidents where unexpected wins occur and many unexpected mistakes happen repeatedly, so we have to understand that no one can change everything except ourselves.

So stay focused by only putting the amount we can be responsible for, it's better than putting a large amount but in the end it doesn't match the wishes and obviously you will feel upset and maybe emotional and also because even though there is a chance of winning on the other hand you must understand that it is nothing more than a "chance" which may not necessarily be 100% at the end of the session.

Even if the win is only small amount, still using money that you feel is still within your means will be much better.
No one can guess and guarantee that you will win, so when you bet by adding more money and losing, it must be very sad.
It just that I surprised by some gamblers who have unreasonable thoughts, they regret it when they win only small bet but on the other hand they get angry when they lose large amount with additional bets.

Remember that when it comes to money, this is bound to happen, people not keeping their word and with those kinds of promises they actually make you let your guard down against them because it's a form of assurance that the money is going to go back to you.

At least he already knows who the person who borrowed the money is, so she doesn't need to give him a loan if that person comes back and wants to borrow the money. It's enough that he doesn't pay his debts and doesn't give him any more loans even though he promised to return the money in a short time. She won from her money, so she doesn't need to expect the loan money to be returned. After all, the money she won was bigger than the money her friend borrowed so she didn't need to think about it other than not giving the loan to the same person. It is a valuable lesson always to be careful about giving loans to someone, especially if it is a friend because there will be discomfort when we collect the debt.

[Negotiation]

If gambling is not about winning and losing or if there is only a chance of winning and there is absolutely no possibility of risk occurring then obviously there is no problem if you want to borrow money to gamble, but obviously as you said about what if we lose? of course it will be very difficult to feel okay when you are in a situation like that, which is why it is always not recommended to gamble using borrowed money, you will get a lot of pressure and problems from the gambling you do and also from the money you borrow.

So obviously we should emphasize a proper understanding of gambling and also maintain awareness, I think with that you will not be rash in making every decision, you will be more able to consider everything with a precaution for the sake of financial balance.

Even those that had a method to become profitable gamblers cannot afford to ask for a loan to gamble, and that is because even they cannot be sure they are going to win the next bet as they are still relying on things going their way in order to get a win, and when that is the case people need to avoid at all costs to ask for a loan, as if they do and they lose now they will have to pay that money back with interests or fail to pay a friend or a family member on time, something that can strain your relationship really fast.

I agree that if you can't pay back the money on time it not only destroys the family relationship but sometimes it creates chaos in the society. Without borrowing money, you have to bet according to your ability. Even if you win big, you will have no trouble to repay the money. And gambling is nothing but foolishness like borrowing money because no one can guarantee winning here. If luck is not good there are more losses than wins. Identifying which games have the best odds at which casino can be challenging. Having all the details can be crucial if looking for the best options.

[South Park]

At least he already knows who the person who borrowed the money is, so she doesn't need to give him a loan if that person comes back and wants to borrow the money.

It is a valuable lesson always to be careful about giving loans to someone, especially if it is a friend because there will be discomfort when we collect the debt.

That is why a loan should only be given in the case of a true emergency and not in any other circumstance, because very often the loan is viewed from a very different perspective by both parties, with you expecting to get your money back relatively soon as promised, and the other party expects the loan to eventually become a gift and that you never even try to collect the debt, and if you do then there are bound to be a lot of problems, and they may even try to make you feel guilty by trying to recover something that is legitimately yours.

If gambling is not about winning and losing or if there is only a chance of winning and there is absolutely no possibility of risk occurring then obviously there is no problem if you want to borrow money to gamble, but obviously as you said about what if we lose? of course it will be very difficult to feel okay when you are in a situation like that, which is why it is always not recommended to gamble using borrowed money, you will get a lot of pressure and problems from the gambling you do and also from the money you borrow.

And gambling is nothing but foolishness like borrowing money because no one can guarantee winning here. If luck is not good there are more losses than wins. Identifying which games have the best odds at which casino can be challenging. Having all the details can be crucial if looking for the best options.

Of course that's true, if you basically use borrowing as an alternative to getting money to fund the gambling that you do then obviously there will be new potential problems that will befall you, the question is what if at that time you lose? of course the money borrowed will run out and you will be confused about how to return it or pay it and of course this will be a new problem that you will experience, besides you will have a bad image in the eyes of others because you cannot pay debts you will also feel unusual pressure and your life will never be calm.

Another thing is that gambling has absolutely no certainty and no guarantee of winning at the end of the session, this activity is nothing more than winning and losing, meaning you can win and you are also very likely to lose, so it is ridiculous if you are desperate to borrow money just for the sake of something uncertain. I understand there is a chance of winning in gambling but it is nothing more than a chance in the sense that there is absolutely no certainty of getting it unless you are really lucky.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Yes, it always happens, like sometime, and it always looks so painful whenever we plan to win a big amount in a gamble, but due to some circumstances, it does work out, like what just happened to you. In fact, even if you use that 10$ to bet and you win that amount, you will still be wondering why you did not use that big amount of more than 10$ to stake the game and win like thousands of dollars. That is a gamble for everyone, and we are hardly satisfied with our winnings. And also, sometimes you may regret it when you use a large amount of money to stake and do not win. There is no assurance in gambling; it is all about luck, so I will just say you don't need to be angry at something like that because it is possible that if it is returned in time, you may not even use all 10 dollars to stake it all but probably even move some games to reduce your risk.

[Sandra_hakeem]

Maybe you wouldn't have..but how can one tell which prediction would pay off?.. you'll never know... It happens outta a blue and it may sometimes stir your motivation on wagering heavily to incur more wins, should it ever cut!..
The big problem about posting winning tickets like this would definitely be enticing some daft-headed fellow into thinking they could possibly get some bucks and the Chances of winning like that is actually high... It'll also motivate already exiting gamblers too.

This loan is only for emergencies where someone needs money to meet their needs. But if the loan is not for something urgent, someone doesn't need to borrow money, especially for gambling, because it's just for fun, which we don't always do. But it's different if someone gambles too often and has pinned his hopes on gambling. He will borrow money from other people to gamble again and won't care about anything even if he loses again. We don't need to lend him money to gamble because later, both he and we will experience unpleasant problems that will strain our relationship with him.

That's not really the point, the outcomes already certain, that OP has won the money and the thing that he was regretting the most was that he let that friend borrow the money which could've increased his potential wins, it's not living in the past, that's just hindsight and it's always 20/20. Totally agree with not everything is about money but the lesson here is that promises shouldn't be spoken and taken lightly, they might be just words but they should be taken seriously, I don't like that kind of friend that promises something and then turns back their word on it, that person will stab you in the back, you and them don't know it yet but that's a sign of a friend that's only there for your prosperity and times of fun.

Congrats on your win! It's normal for you to feel conflicted after what happened with your friend, but it's great that you were able to turn a small win into a big win. Situations that you didn't expect can sometimes deliver pleasant surprises. You should focus on the good things that happened, and who knows, your luck might get even better in the future. Congratulations!

Yeah, it is best to simply enjoy the present, specially when they just won something.

At the end of the day, there is no point thinking too much about the past, because there's no way to change it.

The past is history. You can only learn from it, and move on.

You are right, though it be hard sometimes for our minds not to feel that regretful feelings for past mistakes, most especially when we remember what that or such mistake have cost us, but the truth remains that, what has happened has happened, and there is nothing that can be done to change what is already in the past, and it's effect, even if we are still going through the effect.

We can only try not to make same mistake again, and also, it's very important for us not to dwell in the past because doing so could cloud our sense of proper reasoning which could also lead to further and future mistakes again.
It's just like what happened to op, he bet with a small amount of money and won, now he is feeling that he could have bet with a bigger amount of money so as to win a bigger amount.
Now, if he allows this to bi-cloud his thought, he could go betting with a very high amount of money the next day, which he could lose, and this will result in a fresh regrets.

So, It's better for us to always be contented with what ever amount we have won, even though it be small, for it could have been a loss.

[South Park]

Maybe you wouldn't have..but how can one tell which prediction would pay off?.. you'll never know... It happens outta a blue and it may sometimes stir your motivation on wagering heavily to incur more wins, should it ever cut!..
The big problem about posting winning tickets like this would definitely be enticing some daft-headed fellow into thinking they could possibly get some bucks and the Chances of winning like that is actually high... It'll also motivate already exiting gamblers too.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

While you are correct when you say that there is no way to be sure which of our bets will be the next to win, the real issue the OP has is that due to lending that money to a friend, and said friend going back on their word to pay them immediately, they were unable to make a bet as big as they wanted and this diminished their profits, and I think that what we must learn here is that there are many people out there that do not take their promises seriously and we must always take this into account, especially when it comes to a loan.

[borovichok]

It is unfortunate that your friend didn't keep his word and give you back your money in time, otherwise you would've won more than just 50$˜.
But it is a lesson for you so next time you will be more ready to gamble with the right amount of money and have the opportunity to win more from your betting. Meanwhile, you shouldn't feel bad because at least you earned that bet which is very impressive.
I see that you have the skills and vision in sport betting and I believe that you are going to face more and better opportunities in the future but just make sure to be ready and have the right amount for betting to not miss such big chances and win bigger.

Well, I don't think he is unfortunate. I am an ardent believer in the saying that everything happens for a reason. Who knows the force behind the win? Who knows if the money he borrowed his friend paved the way for his winning? Maybe the thing your friend borrowed money to handle is so crucial that it would have amounted to an unjust act if it wasn't given. Therefore, there should be no regret for doing the right thing. Be happy that you won and then hope for better days.

[coinerer]

Good prediction of your. congratulations for your winning
If you bet larger amounts and win larger amounts, this is a sign of your gambling addiction. If you think like this, your probability of winning from gambling will increase and you will decide to deposit bigger amount and bet there. And in gambling you can't always win so if you lose money on the next deposit you will deposit more to recover it and thus you will have the chance to lose your connection so be happy with the winnings and always bet as much as you can afford to lose. At least be mentally fit

[Agbamoni]

Your predictions went smoothly and successfully won the bet. I guess it's not always like this all the time, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. And each of those times have a feeling that comes with it. When you lose you feel sad and when you win you make merry. Which is what you are doing now. I understand how happy you are that you won and i also understand how regretful you are that you did not stake with a higher amount. However, if you had bet with a higher amount and lose you will be disappointed by now, just remain satisfied with your winnings.

[topbitcoin]

Choosing to continue betting until the end, maybe that will be a pretty wise choice. As long as it is done carefully and in accordance with the risk management that you have implemented in your betting activities. And before choosing to continue betting until the end, it seems that there are several factors that are quite important, which you should consider first. And for the first one, make sure that the decision is taken based on rational analysis, not on emotions because you want to get a bigger win. Don't let the victory you got in the past influence your current decision, try to stay calm and stick to the strategy you have planned and the results of the analysis you have made. And for the next point, pay attention to the time you have spent betting, make sure that you bet within the normal time limit and don't let the betting continue indefinitely and you don't even know when to stop it. Always make sure that the betting activities you do do not hinder or interfere with other activities. And for the final point, make sure that you are betting using money that you are prepared to lose and if you find or estimate that there are signs of financial risk, then it would be better if you reconsider it and choose to withdraw from the bet.

Yes and I also understand that he was quite regretful that he did not put all the budget he had set due to one of his friends who had borrowed the money first so the intention to allocate a larger amount failed and the regret came when it turned out that the session ended with a win but could only get a small winning amount. As you say that gambling is about winning and losing and always nothing more than that, we have to go back to the initial understanding that gambling is a "chance and probability" activity meaning that losing and winning are possible.

If at that moment you regret only getting a small win then doesn't that mean you are one of the ungrateful gamblers right? I understand regret is natural but we also shouldn't be too excessive in feeling it because after all this is gambling that is completely unknown in the end result, and as you said that logically if he had put a bigger amount and lost then wouldn't there be significant regret and disappointment? This is why it is always advisable for all gamblers to take full responsibility for their gambling activities, meaning being able to accept whatever will happen at the end of the session and ending the session with a win is much better than losing even if the winning amount is not too large.

When it comes to gambling people need to accept whatever comes their way, I know it can be disappointing for the OP to not obtain the profits they were looking for, but on the bright side they still obtained some profits, which is more than what many other gamblers can say at the end of their session, so whenever we end up with more money than when the session began, we need to be grateful as this mean that all the fun that we obtained not only did not cost us anything, but we even got something in return, which is great.

Profit is profit but people would really be normally be sticking into those bigger potential profits that they could possibly be able to get on the time that they would really be able to make some bets but due to some circumstances they had missed out on doing so. This is where regrets would really be happening but what if it turns out to be a loss? For sure you would really be having those main thoughts that it is really just that right that someone do borrows your money or whatever reasons which causes for you to miss out on betting into that particular time. This is why it would really be that important that you shouldnt really be having that kind of behavior on trying out to assume things which it didnt happen.

Always moved on and profit is profit no matter how small it is, people are really just that not contented on what they do have on which they would really be
always loving to have more.

[Unbunplease]

A player is always faced with the problem of when is the best time to stop. It always seems that just a little more - and the jackpot will be obtained. And there is always dissatisfaction with the winnings and the thought that you can win even more. The hardest part is learning to be content with what you already have

Yeah, the ironic thing is that if a gambler is content with what they already have they would never start gambling in the first place.

One of the main attractions in gambling is the fantasy that you could become rich by gambling, which is extremely rare, yet still many people continue to try it every day.

[JahriMeayer]

Yeah you could but you might be loss too cause stake on "multiple" contains super risk than usual bets but yeah it also offers a very high odds and the return will be huge if you win. And not every gambler has such luck or can sharp mind predict to win such "multiple" game. And if you $10 is a low amount from your monthly income, then you can freely go for stake. Otherwise $1 is better and i feel happy for you for such a lower stake cause gambling is so uncertain thing where you won't know what's coming. We should always keep it in mind that, today isn't the end of gambling session, you'll have upcoming days to Gambling, so better to stake responsibly

[Hirose UK]

Yeah, the ironic thing is that if a gambler is content with what they already have they would never start gambling in the first place.

Hahaha, that human attitude, it doesn't only apply to gamblers but to everyone without exception.
Anyone will feel dissatisfied with the achievements they have had and everyone will think that they still have to fight to get greater results.
Especially gambler, they will continue to try to get bigger results even though the results they have achieved can be said to be big wins, this makes gamblers often referred to as greedy gamblers.

One of the main attractions in gambling is the fantasy that you could become rich by gambling, which is extremely rare, yet still many people continue to try it every day.

That right, fantasy is the main attraction that will appear in gambler mind.
They will imagine getting big win and use it to do whatever they want, this gives rise to ambition that is too big for an objective mind.
But the reality will always be different from the hopes and desires that are thought.

There are people that are moving upwards towards their goals every day.

And there is always dissatisfaction with the winnings and the thought that you can win even more. The hardest part is learning to be content with what you already have

Yes, this behavior can be called greedy behavior, so many gamblers get trapped and experience big losses because they feel no satisfaction from their winnings, so gamblers who always feel satisfied with their winnings and limit their winnings will be safe from gambling addiction, especially if they know when they having to stop gambling would be even better, basically an intelligent person must know when it is time to gamble and when to stop gambling.

If you can master this, of course you can avoid gambling addiction because the scary thing about gambling is that gambling addiction is very difficult to cure and always has a negative impact on users. Someone who has won should know what to do and stop playing then withdraw all the money but for greedy gamblers they will never be satisfied and end up continuing the game when they win thinking that they will win big again after the previous win, but in fact it is clear that it is nil and those who experience a major defeat then make another deposit and continue gambling again until they lose their money Lots.

It is normal for a gambler not to be satisfied with the winnings he has achieved and still want to win even bigger. He will have the desire to pursue bigger wins by continuing to gamble. Unfortunately, it is not in line with their wishes, and this is where gamblers should understand that if they decide to gamble longer, they will experience losses that may be bigger than they imagined. Their greed traps them because they cannot tell themselves to stop gambling, so they continue gambling because they want an even bigger win. If they want to check the large winnings, they will see that other gamblers cannot easily obtain the winnings.

Those who cannot stop themselves from continuing to gamble will slowly become addicted, and that is not good for them because they will only experience greater risks than if they could stop their gambling activities. Those who have won should be able to stop gambling first to reduce tension after getting the win because they will become more excited and may forget what they have won. They should be able to be satisfied with what they get, so stopping gambling would be a good idea for them. Moreover, they can gamble again at another time after they have lowered their emotions and tension so that when they gamble next time, they will gamble without any burden.

The multiple betting was the risky one,but the winning also more from the multiple betting.If the gambler really want to make the huge winning from the gambling site.It was essential to do the multiple betting.Most of the sports betting gamblers use the multiple betting option in the gambling site.Because the sports betting also need of the knowledge about the sportsperson.The knowledge about the more sportsperson will leads to more winning from the sports betting.The multiple betting in the casino games are low,the staking also the important factor of the sports betting which help to stake out for longer period.

Something which is applicable to all on which people would really be always having that kind of reaction on the time that they've saw something that having that potential winning amount could be bigger.
On the time that they woudl really be able to see such thing then they would really be having those kind of thoughts in mind and even trying out to blame someone on why they havent been able to win up those amounts.
This could really also cause up some argumentations and some blaming on the time that you have seen those huge numbers which its a normal reaction. Come in mind into that opposite situation
on which you would really be having those thankful thoughts that you have been able to avoid on betting such thing.

It is really a common behavior on which there's no such thing about having assurance when it comes to gambling outcomes or results on which it would really be that purely
random and something that cant really be known.

All types of betting, not just sports betting, still have big risks, but how do they as gamblers take these risks more wisely because every gambler definitely wants to get a big win and if they really want to get a big win from sports betting, there are many ways and one of them is by choosing multi bets which can give bigger odds or choose single bets by selecting several matches but require a little large capital to be able to get big wins on single bets and I prefer to bet with multi bets choosing several matches to get big odds and betting small amounts to get a big win.

Even though it is too risky if we already have a lot of knowledge in the sport we choose and also bet with a small amount, for me there is no problem as long as we don't exceed the limits of our ability to bet.

Parlays are simply too difficult to win, if getting a single prediction right is difficult, getting 5, 10 or more predictions right in a row is way more difficult, I can understand the allure those bets represent, since with a single bet a person can earn a great amount of money, but the odds of winning are so low and the chances of losing so high that it seems obvious to me that when given the chance, it is preferable that gamblers make those bets individually instead of grouping them in a parlay.

The greedy behaviour was the harm to the gamblers all the time,because they will loss the full money because of the greedy behaviour in the gambling site.The less satisfaction with the game winning dollars was the biggest reason for the loss of the entire capital.The gamblers should learn to accept the winning money received from the gambling site.If any one want to shine in the gambling world.This self satisfaction with the winning money was the key factor to get the winning dollars in particular betting time.

If you can master this, of course you can avoid gambling addiction because the scary thing about gambling is that gambling addiction is very difficult to cure and always has a negative impact on users. Someone who has won should know what to do and stop playing then withdraw all the money but for greedy gamblers they will never be satisfied and end up continuing the game when they win thinking that they will win big again after the previous win, but in fact it is clear that it is nil and those who experience a major defeat then make another deposit and continue gambling again until they lose their money Lots. 

The gambler who want to rule the gambling site should avoid of the gambling addiction all the time.The gambler who get the solid strategy for the gambling can able to make the good money from the gambling site all the time.But the gamblers should not leave some game for each the game,because the gamblers may forgot about the gambling strategy in that mean time.

This means that most gamblers have their own reasons why they are involved in gambling, and one of the reasons that is very likely is the "chance of winning" which is actually nothing more than a "possibility" without the certainty of actually getting it, dissatisfaction with the financial situation in real life makes them make gambling a place to improve their financial situation by putting hope in a win, as you said that if they were satisfied with what they already had then they would not gamble and I have said one of the reasons that is quite possible above.

Of course, I can honestly conclude that as I said above the reason gamblers get involved is because of the "chance of winning", they misunderstand the name "chance" they think that it is something that is easy to come true, when in fact it is very difficult unless you are really lucky but still it will only happen once in a thousand tries, so instead of becoming a rich man but what happens is getting poorer.

Totally difficult and in all the years i've been betting on parlays i did only manage to hit up on max of 4 games as far as i remember on which after than i havent been able to manage to hit
and this is why i do stick on making those single bets instead. Its true that hitting parlays could really be that too damn hard and if someone who do manage to hit up well then thats a sweet odds for you.
Basing up on the OP condition or situation then its really that a bummer that you didnt been able to bet up big just because your friend borrowed your fund and you wasnt able to make those
bigger bets for you to be able to win up much more bigger. What if the situation is really that opposite? For sure you would really be thankful that you hadnt been able to bet.

It is true. All gamblers have their reason for gambling in the first but no matter what the reason is it is better to always put in check our gaming buzz because there's no way gamblers that play the game only for winning purposes won't gamble beyond his/her unless he/she has plan B which is the risk management in place already.

[Obari]

This is what happens in gambling when you refuse to bet with huge amount,and your game eventually plays,you will regret not betting with a bigger amount.This regret happens to any gambler who never expected a win,but eventually wins.
What I've noticed about beting and gambling is,it is good to play on few games,and stake with huge amount, lengthy games have high chances of loss than small games.if you place a bet on 3 odds,and play it with a huge amount,if the games plays,you will see that it's easy to win than a lengthy game which has 0 chances of winning.Try to use a bigger amount,and you will see that your losses will reduce,and your chances of winning will increase.

[magneto]

This is a common thing to feel after you hit a bet.

Of course whenever you win it doesn't feel like you bet enough. But you have to realise that there is some probability that the bet would not have hit, and you would have mitigated some losses due to you betting a smaller amount. This is especially true when it comes to parlays which are generally very -EV (as each leg is -EV and it is multiplicative).

Take the winnings and don't feel the need to chase the imaginary losses that you are keeping track of.

[red4slash]

It is true. All gamblers have their reason for gambling in the first but no matter what the reason is it is better to always put in check our gaming buzz because there's no way gamblers that play the game only for winning purposes won't gamble beyond his/her unless he/she has plan B which is the risk management in place already.

In this condition it is important to realise that we must be a responsible gambler so that we are not too out of control when gambling, because after all we must be aware that any situation that occurs there will definitely be a risk that we must accept whether it is in the near future or in a slightly longer time frame.
This is an important condition because after all we have to take into account all aspects that we have to accept in gambling.The reasons for gambling are all almost the same namely the victory and pleasure gained in gambling games but on the other hand this is only a situation where we only see the sweetness but there is another worst possibility that we can face in gambling namely defeat which is indeed the greatest probability so we must be prepared for that possibility because believe it or not such things are likely to happen.

Absolutely agree with you. No one knows what would have happened if this guy had bet $10 instead of $1. It's ridiculous to think that the winnings would have increased tenfold. He could have lost that $10.

But this friend's behavior is something to think about. If someone is willing to lose a friendship for $10, then that relationship can't even be called a friendship. I would stop communicating with such a person as soon as possible.

Yeah, spot on.

Money comes and goes, but relationships with people are one of the most valuable things in life.

You don't want to trade them for money, or in this case by debt.

[harapan]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

What a Nice win.
That's one of the challenges you face when you bet, gamble or stake games.its a sure one that no matter the distraction from your friend you still on the winning end.

I bet your lucky charms are superb I must say but mind you whenever you want to stake such games it's clearly enough to know who you err it out to,cause most likely not everyone are in support of your progress and your friend was like a distraction to you because you already told him what you intend to do with the money you lend him.
But that not withstanding you still won,and again probably you would have won something bigger with that same amount you lend him but you just let it go.

[maydna]

~snip~

Something which is applicable to all on which people would really be always having that kind of reaction on the time that they've saw something that having that potential winning amount could be bigger.
On the time that they woudl really be able to see such thing then they would really be having those kind of thoughts in mind and even trying out to blame someone on why they havent been able to win up those amounts.
This could really also cause up some argumentations and some blaming on the time that you have seen those huge numbers which its a normal reaction. Come in mind into that opposite situation
on which you would really be having those thankful thoughts that you have been able to avoid on betting such thing.

It is really a common behavior on which there's no such thing about having assurance when it comes to gambling outcomes or results on which it would really be that purely
random and something that cant really be known.

It is a normal thing when someone should be able to win a larger amount, but because someone else borrowed the money, he cannot win a larger amount. He should be grateful. He was able to win big and not need to think about the money his friend borrowed because, after all, he could win big, which was even bigger than the money he lent. But humans always want something more even though they already have it, and only awareness can explain it to them so that they can understand that they are lucky because they can win a large amount of money that exceeds the money borrowed by their friends.

Yes, that's why we don't know what the results of gambling will be until we finish gambling. And when we have won and decided to stop, we are already the winner.

[Dewi Aries]

This means that most gamblers have their own reasons why they are involved in gambling, and one of the reasons that is very likely is the "chance of winning" which is actually nothing more than a "possibility" without the certainty of actually getting it, dissatisfaction with the financial situation in real life makes them make gambling a place to improve their financial situation by putting hope in a win, as you said that if they were satisfied with what they already had then they would not gamble and I have said one of the reasons that is quite possible above.

Of course, I can honestly conclude that as I said above the reason gamblers get involved is because of the "chance of winning", they misunderstand the name "chance" they think that it is something that is easy to come true, when in fact it is very difficult unless you are really lucky but still it will only happen once in a thousand tries, so instead of becoming a rich man but what happens is getting poorer.

It is true. All gamblers have their reason for gambling in the first but no matter what the reason is it is better to always put in check our gaming buzz because there's no way gamblers that play the game only for winning purposes won't gamble beyond his/her unless he/she has plan B which is the risk management in place already.

Yes and one of the more common reasons that gamblers come to gambling in the first place is that they want to win, there are some of my friends who just got involved in gambling because they saw one of their friends who managed to hit a pretty big jackpot which basically motivated them to get involved and gamble too with the hope of winning like their friend, but their journey will not be that smooth because as I said before that winning will only happen once in a while from the dozens of tries you make and if calculated then I think maybe the amount of winning is equivalent to what you have lost.

On the other hand I think it's true that gambling should be fun and not an alternative to earning money because the high level of risk will not allow them to succeed in achieving consistent wins, and that means as you say it's better to pay attention to the excitement of the game because this way you can enjoy the thrill of a few rounds running, because with the goal of winning it is obviously very difficult for them not to overdo it.

I've been here before and I can say it's a very bad position for a gbler to find himself, and I can tell you confidently that not all gamblers makes it out in one piece.

First of all, congratulations to you for your winning. It is interesting to read your post and I hope everyone also liked it. You don't have to feel bad because you could not win the amount you want to use and bet. Sometimes you just have to thank your creator for this because what if he lost the money? What would you have done?

I know if you lost the money you might have been in another mood looking for how to play the next game since the previous one was a lost. And I know that if wmyi lost this game, maybe you could be happy that you did not use $10 to play the bet. We need to know what we are doing and that should not make us regret because we did not win as much as we planned.

I've already come to this realization that the gambling was designed and built to favor the casino majority of the time, and this have helped me quite chasing my loses unnecessarily, this has been the problem and downfall of many gamblers, always trying to chase their losses, they want to recover the money they've lost and by doing this, many things gets involved, they become desperate at some point and when a gambler starts to gamble out of desperation due to loss chasing, they start increasing their stakes in order to hit one big win and then recover thrones they've lost and then quite for the moment.

Many people fall into the trap of chasing losses while hoping to recoup their money through bigger bets or riskier strategies. This cycle of chasing losses can quickly spiral out of control, leading to desperation, increased financial strain, and devastating consequences. Understanding that the odds are typically in favor of the house can help prevent the temptation to chase losses and instead approach gambling with a mindset of enjoyment rather than financial recovery.

People borrow money to continue gambling after losing everything is unfortunately all too common and often leads to further financial ruin and emotional distress. Responsible gambling involves knowing when to walk away, setting realistic limits, and prioritizing one's financial well-being and overall well-being above the allure of potential winnings. Your awareness of these issues is a crucial step towards making informed and healthier choices in your gambling activities.

You have a point and if most gamblers take into account the idea of being responsible gamblers there won't be many people who are gambling addicted because gamblers will always seek solutions and ways to gamble profitably first instead of having their main focus on winning the game without maximum preparation for the worst possibility they will face in gambling which is defeat as you said.

Dewi Aries, A lot of people have become gambling addicted due to this exact decision of using another person's success story to influence their move whereas it always takes time for the success to come and the worst thing is that the gambler that won the huge fund won't inform the people what they have gone through be the success.

Gormicsta, Gambling was designed as a means to provide gamblers an opportunity with the rate of the house edge higher than the player. The casino business is not always as profitable as you think because they also make loss at some point when there's a lucky player.

[alegotardo]

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

I would bet you that fate is cruel to people

Do you believe that there is a "major force" that uses several variables in our world that we can't even imagine to determine the final result of something? Imagine that, if your friend had returned the $10 in time, you could have thought of something different, you could have spent more time talking to him, you could have imagined making a different bet and in the end lost the $11. Have you ever imagined this possibility? ?

I honestly don't believe that much, but it's interesting to think about it. In any case, be grateful for the amount you earned, and continue paying your friend's debt.

[terrific]

I would bet you that fate is cruel to people

You said it right.
That was her fate to win that amount and her friend will borrow money to her. But we can't modify what has already happened but I guess we can but only on our minds. Accept what has happened and you could have lost that money if the fate was against her winning.
Whatever it is, accept the situation and deal with it because we're facing a reality and not with the ifs and buts.

Yes that is what will happen and what you will experience when you start gambling without a proper understanding of gambling, after all it is a fact that gambling is nothing more than a probability activity that provides two possibilities at the end of the session namely "win or lose" you will find one of the two when you are at the end of the session, and because as you mentioned that gambling is mostly only to benefit the casino so this is a reason why losses are more common than wins, losing is a definite result and winning is something that depends on how lucky you are when running a session.

The misconception about the chances of winning that exists in gambling makes gamblers come with the aim of "earning" so this is where the disaster scenario starts which is that they will not be able to accept the fact of losing at the end of the session and after that enter the cycle of chasing wins to restore something that has been lost and this is a stupid idea when you bring it to gambling. As you said, few gamblers can walk away in one piece, as more often than not you will lose larger and larger sums as you try to recover what you have lost, so it is always advisable to be a responsible gambler.

Yeah, that's a great attitude to have in life in general really.

Accept the things you can't change, and change the things you can.

Many initially only gamble because they want to try gambling but over time it actually makes them more and more troubled by what they are doing because they are unable to deal with the pressure they have considering that their desire to gamble is getting bigger and bigger which makes them more and more overwhelmed in reducing the gambling that is done.

This is what is sometimes difficult to control because after all, this is the beginning of those who cannot become mature and responsible gamblers because they will continue to be blinded in the game and do not care about anything as long as their gambling desires can be fulfilled properly which makes the effect of addiction even greater in the end.
It is difficult to do something like this but we also need to know that situations like this can be mitigated, it just requires extra effort from ourselves.

He also still has more time to return to gambling and win perhaps bigger amounts than before. He should also be grateful for what he has gotten because not many gamblers can get a win like that. Most people will only experience many losses more often than getting a win like the one he got. That is why we have to be able to accept what we have gotten because it is a destiny that cannot be changed, especially since it has already happened. We still have time to get it again, but it should not trigger him to gamble longer or use more money. Just play gambling with enough money so he doesn't lose too much.

Its hard to get from gambling curiosity to addiction. We'll change the perspective. Gambling is entertaining, adrenaline-pumping, and draws people together. Thrill, tension, and the possibility of winning are key. This spirit must be preserved. Managing excessive gambling is the crux. Sure, its tricky. But I believe in self-awareness and boundaries. Maintaining a gaming budget, playing only with money you can lose, and recognising addiction early can make a big difference. Think proactive, not reactive.

Last, solutions. Human resilience's adaptability and triumph is beautiful. Minimising gambling's negative impacts takes work, but isnt it worth it to preserve the fun? Balancing, controlling, and enjoying gambling as fun rather than a lifelong addiction are key.

[Wakate]

This is what happens in gambling when you refuse to bet with huge amount,and your game eventually plays,you will regret not betting with a bigger amount.This regret happens to any gambler who never expected a win,but eventually wins.
What I've noticed about beting and gambling is,it is good to play on few games,and stake with huge amount, lengthy games have high chances of loss than small games.if you place a bet on 3 odds,and play it with a huge amount,if the games plays,you will see that it's easy to win than a lengthy game which has 0 chances of winning.Try to use a bigger amount,and you will see that your losses will reduce,and your chances of winning will increase.

This thing happens often and what normally make us think that we should have won bigger amount is greed. Greed comes in different ways and we shouldn't allow that. Making money from betting will require us to make decisions that will help us in the future to be a better gambler not accusing ourselves of not taking the step that would have make us earn more in betting.
Those that we see making consistent profits in gambling was a result of strategizing and admitting to all the decisions they have taken whether the ones that affected their winnings or the ones that give them smooth winnings.
We don't have to think again about our bets after we have seen results. All we need to do is to admit to everything we have gained or lost.

There is nothing bad in people having the initial mindset of trying gambling since there's always a first time for everything but making them more trouble is unacceptable and it's a sign that gambling is not for such people. However, the situation can still be mitigated if the gambler understand that he/she is in trouble with gambling and needs help.

Those that we see making consistent profits in gambling was a result of strategizing and admitting to all the decisions they have taken whether the ones that affected their winnings or the ones that give them smooth winnings.
We don't have to think again about our bets after we have seen results. All we need to do is to admit to everything we have gained or lost.

The gambler mostly get greedy because of the concept of getting more money then they loss the holding money the gambling site.The greedy gambler will increase the deposit money to the gambling site.Secondly they will add huge money for the single better because of large amounts holding in the gambling site.The gambler who hold the less money in the gambling site was mostly escape from the gambling greedy game.Some had greedy along with the luck,the output of such games was towards the gambling was positive one.

Many initially only gamble because they want to try gambling but over time it actually makes them more and more troubled by what they are doing because they are unable to deal with the pressure they have considering that their desire to gamble is getting bigger and bigger which makes them more and more overwhelmed in reducing the gambling that is done.

This is what is sometimes difficult to control because after all, this is the beginning of those who cannot become mature and responsible gamblers because they will continue to be blinded in the game and do not care about anything as long as their gambling desires can be fulfilled properly which makes the effect of addiction even greater in the end.
It is difficult to do something like this but we also need to know that situations like this can be mitigated, it just requires extra effort from ourselves.

Its hard to get from gambling curiosity to addiction. We'll change the perspective. Gambling is entertaining, adrenaline-pumping, and draws people together. Thrill, tension, and the possibility of winning are key. This spirit must be preserved. Managing excessive gambling is the crux. Sure, its tricky. But I believe in self-awareness and boundaries. Maintaining a gaming budget, playing only with money you can lose, and recognising addiction early can make a big difference. Think proactive, not reactive.

Last, solutions. Human resilience's adaptability and triumph is beautiful. Minimising gambling's negative impacts takes work, but isnt it worth it to preserve the fun? Balancing, controlling, and enjoying gambling as fun rather than a lifelong addiction are key.

But in fact, it is when the desire to try gambling becomes a curiosity that makes us make a bigger addiction until now.
Indeed, sometimes we will also deny that this will be a pleasure that is done in the end but on the other hand, sometimes things like this will only be a defence for us to feel free from the feeling that we are a gambling addict. Sometime we know that we are addicts but we don't want to admit this under the pretext that we are someone who likes to gamble (gamble for pleasure) but in the application and games we do it tends to the addiction we have.

Its good solutions until now but on the other hand we also cannot say that it is an easy thing because in the end we must realise that self-control is sometimes very easy to say but difficult to do. It's just that when we become a gambler then inevitably we have to do it so that we don't get caught in a chaotic situation in the gambling that we do.

 There is nothing bad in people having the initial mindset of trying gambling since there's always a first time for everything but making them more trouble is unacceptable and it's a sign that gambling is not for such people. However, the situation can still be mitigated if the gambler understand that he/she is in trouble with gambling and needs help.

Yeah, just like alcohol, many people have tried it and never really continued drinking.

Same with gambling.

Some people enjoy gambling from time to time just for a bit of fun, but they are not at all addicted, whereas others are completely consumed by it.

I think I read somewhere that there is a genetic predisposition to some addictions, so watch out.

I by far would disagree that there is anything that addiction has to do with genetic predisposition or how ever you want to put it, gambling addiction is not inherent, and as such, we cant say that for sure that it is something that can be passed from one generation or linage to another, or from a parent to their children like it is with some ailments/sicknesses.

People get addicted to gambling, not because their parent were addicted to gambling, but because they themselves decided on their own to toe same path their parents toed, which caused them to get addicted to gambling.
So, for someone who's father is addicted to gambling, he or she can be completely different and a different type of gambler as well, all depends on his choices, decisions in relation to his or her gambling activities.

Those who gamble without having issues of addiction as you explained are the people who understand the concept of gambling and have the maturity to accept the facts about it. This gives them the ability to play the rules of gambling profitably.
About genetic predisposition, the case is arrear but it is possible due to genetic emotions which can be triggered by gambling stress

I think it's simply a genetic variation that occurs in some amount of people, I think it was somewhere around 15% or so, basically not a lot but also not nothing.

You can check if you have that if you find it hard to stop drinking after you started drinking a couple of glasses of alcohol.

Since the feel-good chemicals apply mostly when your blood-alcohol level is increasing, you need to keep drinking to feel like that.

Most people can stop, and feel OK, those people find it hard to do so.

Similar things might apply in gambling addictions.

Hahaha everything will be related to the goals and ambitions of gambler, if gambling is only for fun and ambition is only for entertainment then the percentage of gambling addiction will never be experienced.
If only all gamblers could really have good mindset and the right approach then we would never see the problem of gambling addiction or several cases occurring because of the impact of gambling, this is mistake that has become bad habit for gamblers.
This kind of attitude will always exist and be like an attitude that goes down and down because it cannot be stopped and cannot be suppressed more widely, gamblers will just do whatever is in their minds without caring about the risks and consequences in the future.
Moreover, addicted gamblers will also have a greedy attitude, they will always try to get a bigger win even though the win they get is also decent win and this is the typical mindset that destroys many gambling addicts.
They can control themselves and their desires in gambling if they have calmer attitude and have goals that are not excessive, it just that most gamblers have minds contaminated by their own ambitions.

True, I completely agree with your idea that the people who are now safe without experiencing problems as a result of gambling are those who do have a proper understanding of the concept of gambling, they understand that gambling is nothing more than a profit-making activity in the sense that there is absolutely no guarantee and certainty of anything that can make you win at the end of the session and of course it means that the end of your gambling session is always unpredictable.

So for this reason they prefer risk management rather than gambling with the aim of earning due to the chance of winning there, because it is nothing more than a chance which means only a possibility and not necessarily can actually happen, therefore they prefer to be responsible gamblers whose intentions and goals are usually only for entertainment. However, the possibility of risk is always unavoidable in gambling and this is why it is advisable to gamble in moderation and not force things or overdo activities that have no certainty at the end of the session.

[Litzki1990]

This is what happens in gambling when you refuse to bet with huge amount,and your game eventually plays,you will regret not betting with a bigger amount.This regret happens to any gambler who never expected a win,but eventually wins.
What I've noticed about beting and gambling is,it is good to play on few games,and stake with huge amount, lengthy games have high chances of loss than small games.if you place a bet on 3 odds,and play it with a huge amount,if the games plays,you will see that it's easy to win than a lengthy game which has 0 chances of winning.Try to use a bigger amount,and you will see that your losses will reduce,and your chances of winning will increase.

This thing happens often and what normally make us think that we should have won bigger amount is greed. Greed comes in different ways and we shouldn't allow that. Making money from betting will require us to make decisions that will help us in the future to be a better gambler not accusing ourselves of not taking the step that would have make us earn more in betting.

We don't have to think again about our bets after we have seen results. All we need to do is to admit to everything we have gained or lost.

Every gambler thinks that in addition to limited profits, they will win a huge jackpot round once they play gambling and after winning the jackpot round they will improve their financial situation. Everyone wants to win jackpot rounds but only very lucky people can win such rounds. You can consider this aspect of gambling as excessive greed or high hopes. If the gambler wants to win the jackpot round then it is definitely his hope but if the gambler wants to win more after winning enough then we can consider it as over greed which is never good for a gambler.  

Just as it is foolish to make a gambling decision based directly on luck, it is even more foolish to expect additional profits after receiving the expected profits. So we have to keep everything to a limited level.

[Ziskinberg]

That is how gamblers are, foolish. We gamble like we don't treat it like business, so we fully rely on luck, and if we feel lucky, we love to push our luck to maximize our winning. I think we can only think of limiting our losses but on winnings, we can't do that as we want to win more and more, and that's the reason why gamblers losses in the long run because we push our luck so hard until we reach to the level that ran out of it already.

We always love to take a higher risk, if we lose then we lose, seize the moment as they say.

[SamReomo]

Yes, that's true most gamblers when hear stories of those who won huge jackpots they somehow make their minds that they can also win such jackpots but they don't really know that only extremely lucky people can win such jackpots while others will most probably end up losing more if they continue betting in hope that they will get a jackpot.

Jackpots in gambling world do exist but they are only for less than 0.0001% of gamblers who have very good luck. The lucky ones don't even have to play 1000 bets to win the jackpots, if their luck is in their favor then they can win such jackpots even with 100 bets. I think a normal gambler with little luck should understand that and should play with responsibility.

Thats the reality of gambling and this is something that we should really be that be wary about those risks involved and the acceptance with those losses on which we might be able to experience.
Lets just face up the reality and we wont really be having those kind of disappointments and desperation on trying out to cope up with those loses. This is why it would really be that important that you should really be just that playing just for the sake of fun. Dont make yourself that desperate on making money, Those kind of regrets that they could have won bigger and since they had missed out
on doing such make huge bets just because they didnt able to make out due to some circumstances then this is where regret would be starting to be murmur.

If we understand about a subject and don't have the maximum risk in that subject, still we will have a chance of winning, but taking the maximum risk depending on the stake alone is nothing but foolishness. Many people say that gambling is all about luck, but I am against it because I don't believe that all forms of gambling are all about luck. In order to win at gambling, besides the help of your luck, your skill is of immense importance. If betting depends on luck instead of betting on the strong team and betting on a weak team, the results will never go in our favor. Here our luck and our skills are very important. We will be able to select a good team by applying our best skills and if we select a good team, our chances of winning there will be slightly higher. 

There are some gamblers who do not want to accept the fact that it makes no sense to risk maximum money in the wrong place. To take the maximum risk of money, it needs to be taken in the right place.

Basically, if we play gambling like casino games or let's say play games like slots with jackpots, of course it is very difficult to win and it doesn't make sense that many people win at that gambling game, until now many casino gamblers have never honestly acknowledged the statistics. their wins and losses, so it's natural that people prefer to display statistics on their wins, but if you look at the statistics, their losses are definitely far more than their wins, so can it be called a fair game? I do not think so.

I actually don't really believe in gambling games like that which are full of luck without relying on any ability so I never try games that have a Jackpot there because it will definitely be difficult to win even though winning is very slim the chance will not be more than 1% and I believe that even though there are many of us I see people publicizing their wins, it's just part of marketing, nothing more, for me sports betting makes more sense and consistently wins more than gambling in a casino.

The gamblers will not be able to understand what they have to do other than keep trying to win the gambling game so they will continue their gambling game. They think they can get luck that will give them a win, even though luck will not come easily. They are better off gambling in moderation and have no desire to chase win.
Indeed, luck will come to them, but no one knows when that moment will come. They can only keep waiting and maybe continue gambling as usual or only moderately. Yes, we can only limit the losses we will experience by determining how long we can gamble.
We can take risks but must be able to take them that we can afford and will not try to increase the risk again if it only provides an even greater risk.

You have a valid point Mr. Wakate. There is no two ways about it that this style of regret breads greed. If we regret the amount won, then obviously we will want to win bigger next time and that will mean playing bigger and losing bigger too. This is what greed can do to individual gamblers. As we are playing gamble, we should be contented with any amount of profit we collect because nobody is sure of what the outcome of our gamble will be. As we are not sure, we have to play amount that will not make us cry incase loss the bet. So in my opinion, regretting is not good because assuming the bet loss, we will be happy we did not play big. It is better to manage our money well to avoid crying at the end of the day. Play what you can afford to lose and remember that when you play that amount, it will also determine what you will win so accept the winning and be happy.

The only thing that might be passed on from a parent or grandparent to the children or grandchildren is their way of thinking and mindset which might become the reason for them to have some interest in gambling, however, the odds of them becoming a gambling addict just because their father has been an addict are very tiny. Another reason for them becoming addicted to gambling is if the parents gambled in front of them when they were young and they might see and remember it because children learn things from their elders.

However, I also don't agree that a child who has been kept away from gambling since the beginning would become addicted to it as a genetic predisposition unless it's a coincidence that they start gambling and become addicted when they grow up.

Before lending, clear communication is crucial. Be honest about your own financial situation and only offer what you can truly afford to lose. Discuss repayment plans, deadlines, and potential consequences openly. This sets clear expectations and avoids misunderstandings.

Instead of a complete "no," consider alternatives. Could you offer a smaller amount you're comfortable with? Can you recommend resources like financial aid programs or budgeting tools? Setting boundaries, like offering a loan only in emergencies or not lending more than a certain amount, can be helpful.

You're right sports betting makes more sense for me also and I personally place sports bets because in those games luck doesn't plays a very important role but still one should be somewhat lucky to win at sports events as well. In slots or the other casino games that are mostly dependent on our luck won't work for those who don't have a unique type of luck.

I think you're somewhat right that the ones who publicly announce their winnings might do it for the sake of publicity and marketing purpose only. But, I think some of them really get happy when they hit a huge jackpot and that's why they share their winning with us so others might get encouraged from their winnings.

Sports betting is like combining your skills and knowledge with luck, which means that by using the skills and knowledge you have, indirectly it will get you closer to winning, and obviously I also prefer and recommend anyone to bet better. types of sports betting, especially if you have good knowledge about the world of sports, indirectly this betting will allow you to save a little on your gambling budget because you will not always gamble full time because you will only bet when there is a match scheduled. , while in other types of gambling such as slots or others it is clear that it is very possible for you to have difficulty stopping because this type of gambling has properties that really stimulate the human brain and mind to continue playing and in addition it is true that slots are a game of pure luck which is simply put. if you are not lucky then you lose.

The point is that it is not easy to be in a lucky situation, let alone to get consecutive wins in this type of betting, and what happens is that as we know, losses dominate even more and this is the reason why I think it is better to bet on sports betting only. On the other hand, regarding the problem of those who announce their winnings, it is clear that this is an action to get praise from other people or a promotional action to attract more audiences, but on the other hand, if the person who publishes it is not a streamer or influencer who is always suspected of being a casino promotion agent then I think I agree with you that the publications they do are nothing more than to get praise from other people, including some friends.

I think you're right and when it comes to sports betting one should understand it deeply that there are two types of sport events which most gamblers don't even understand. One type of sports event is a real match happening physically somewhere in the world while the other type is a virtual game mostly played by players on computer.

I prefer physical type of sports events and avoid virtual type ones, one can also choose e-sports which aren't that bad but I don't bet on e-sports most of the time. I would say that betting on matches that physically take place can allow you to win more as a sports better while virtual sports events can cause you some loses. Most players don't know that and that's also a reason for their losses.

The issue with esports is that unless you really know the game and you played yourself it is difficult to know how updates and changes on the meta can affect the odds of a particular match, after all traditional sports take a lot of time to update their rules and this gives you a baseline which allows you to easily compare a game that took place decades ago with one that is taking place today, however video games can change wildly and a game at its release state will be completely different to the one it is a few years later, making very difficult to draw conclusions from previous matches.

[shivansps]

Good day everyone,,, I would like to share my winning with you guys, but I am not just doing it because I won the bet, but it is because it wasn't the amount I wanted to stake that I staked.

A friend of mine collected $10 from me earlier yesterday and I wanted to use the money to gamble, but based on, he is my friend. I gave him the $10 he asked for, and the guy said he would return the $10 back ASAP after 3 hours, but he didn't and the $10 was the amount and same money I wanted to use and stake a bet (I have some coins but don't have cash and I don't want to sell any penny of my coins for any reason). But letter on, I used 1000 naira ($1) to stake the bet and I won 49,814 naira (about $50+).

Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

This happens, if this is really your friend, then he will not stop being your friend after this situation. There is a saying that a friend is a friend in need, maybe something happened to him and he could not return 10 dollars to you on time. Don’t be offended by your friend, try to find the strength not to be angry with him. Congratulations on your win

The point is that we must be able to understand what gambling is really about because by understanding the real facts about gambling then I think indirectly you will be able to become a responsible gambler in the sense of being able to accept whatever the results at the end of the session because someone who has the right understanding as well as being responsible they will never dare to put an amount of budget that they cannot be responsible for especially for losing at the end of the session because they are more concerned with risk management than chasing something that has absolutely no certainty.

One of the reasons why we are not advised to make gambling a place that produces because obviously in the end such an idea will only make you experience more downturns and feel a lot of regret, I can already confirm that when gamblers carry the intention and purpose to produce then obviously they will definitely do a lot of experiments based on beliefs and hopes that will indirectly drain their money slowly, so actually the victory you get if calculated with the number of defeats during the trial period must be a much greater number of defeats or the intention is difficult to get out with a truly intact state. So let's make eyes and make gambling nothing more than an activity to fill your spare time without putting hope or seriousness, if you really want to earn then it's better to look for other ways such as work in general that does have certainty and guarantee.

Good predictions.

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

In fact, borrowing people's money is risky and its dual risks are either losing the money because they won't pay it back and secondly you may just end up creating unnecessary enemies for yourself when you try to get them to pay you back.


It is risky to borrow people's money and more risky to borrow a gambler's money since you will end up losing the money automatically when they lose their bets, so for that, you should never borrow a gambler's money unless you are ready to lose the money, so mate you are very right when you say, the ops can borrow out only what he can afford to lose and be fine with.

Before lending, clear communication is crucial. Be honest about your own financial situation and only offer what you can truly afford to lose. Discuss repayment plans, deadlines, and potential consequences openly. This sets clear expectations and avoids misunderstandings.

Instead of a complete "no," consider alternatives. Could you offer a smaller amount you're comfortable with? Can you recommend resources like financial aid programs or budgeting tools? Setting boundaries, like offering a loan only in emergencies or not lending more than a certain amount, can be helpful.

This can be done, but it depends on the borrower because there are many of them who, after getting the money, will not return the money they borrowed because they don't feel like they are borrowing. We have met so many friends like that that even though we have spoken and communicated clearly and have been honest about our situation, they still won't return. If that's the case, we can't do anything. We can only accept it as it is and won't give him another loan.

We must be able to explain our situation, and we cannot give too many loans because we also need the money. And we also don't need to regret lending him money because we have decided to help him. And we should not use the money we have managed to meet our needs. But if we don't have extra money, we also can't borrow it and can explain our position at that time.

I think you're right and when it comes to sports betting one should understand it deeply that there are two types of sport events which most gamblers don't even understand. One type of sports event is a real match happening physically somewhere in the world while the other type is a virtual game mostly played by players on computer.

I prefer physical type of sports events and avoid virtual type ones, one can also choose e-sports which aren't that bad but I don't bet on e-sports most of the time. I would say that betting on matches that physically take place can allow you to win more as a sports better while virtual sports events can cause you some loses. Most players don't know that and that's also a reason for their losses.

The sports betting was totally different one form the casino game,the casino games can be recovered by the upcoming multiple even after the loss in some games.But the sports betting is loss means loss,the gamblers should begin their game again with staking on the next game.

The analysis of the game was more important in the sports betting,random betting itself not the right one here.Because the knowledge based sports betting was leads to loss.How you think the random betting in the sports betting will allow you to make money.

Yes I understand what you mean and maybe I will conclude that the two types of sports betting you mean are physical and online betting, on the other hand of course I as I said above that it is better for you to get involved in sports betting if you have a pretty good knowledge of the world of sports which will be very useful to help you in running bets especially to make the best decision according to the knowledge you have about the world of sports.

Honestly for that matter I really can't confirm that getting involved in physical betting is better than virtual betting, I think the chances of winning are the same, even though you bet on the type of betting that is online but when you really pay attention to running the match I think it's almost the same as when you bet live and for this problem really has nothing to do with whether you will win or not at the end of the session, but maybe the difference is that when you bet live then you will feel the chemistry of a match that is running.

Good predictions.

If you borrow anyone money, have alternatives and not depend on the money because your friend can disappoint you. Sometimes it is understandable. I do not borrow people money that I can not afford to borrow them. I see money I borrow people as lost money. If a friend is truly worth borrowing money, I borrow him or her the amount I can afford to lose.

In fact, borrowing people's money is risky and its dual risks are either losing the money because they won't pay it back and secondly you may just end up creating unnecessary enemies for yourself when you try to get them to pay you back.


It is risky to borrow people's money and more risky to borrow a gambler's money since you will end up losing the money automatically when they lose their bets, so for that, you should never borrow a gambler's money unless you are ready to lose the money, so mate you are very right when you say, the ops can borrow out only what he can afford to lose and be fine with.

On the time that you are already seeing that you are taking up some loan already for you to play gambling then this is a solid indication that you are already addicted to gambling. Why?
There would really be no person that would really be considering out on taking up some loan just for them to take some gambling. If ever you have spend up soo much with your money then its an another story.
On those situations on which you have missed out on winning big due to some circumstances then there's no way that you could be able take it back.
You would be having those regrets but at the same time you would be having those save up if ever the bet as a lost one.

So it would really be that situational and this is something that would really be depending on various situations. Winning is random and this is why its important that you should really
know about the risks involved.

The issue with esports is that unless you really know the game and you played yourself it is difficult to know how updates and changes on the meta can affect the odds of a particular match, after all traditional sports take a lot of time to update their rules and this gives you a baseline which allows you to easily compare a game that took place decades ago with one that is taking place today, however video games can change wildly and a game at its release state will be completely different to the one it is a few years later, making very difficult to draw conclusions from previous matches.

Actually e-sports games are played by real players and their tournaments are quite predictable by the ones who consistently watch the game which is being played by the teams and also that player himself know that how those games work.

A player who has played the game understands the moves of the players of the teams and based on those moves he can decide that which team is going to win the game. I personally don't play those video games myself and I don't even watch their tournaments and that's why I don't place bets on e-sports games.

I believe that there might be some good players who understand the games and know enough about the teams that are part of that match. Those players can win bets which they place on those e-sports events. Other than those most others who place bets based on a casino's odds without much information about the game will end up losing the bets.

For the risk issue of allocating borrowed money for gambling, I would definitely say that it is a really bad idea or action because it is very dangerous, loans are one of the actions that are made as an alternative by gamblers who are already addicted because they always go overboard by ignoring the negative possibilities as a result of what they have decided, One of the things that addicted gamblers don't have is that they decide something without doing any consideration beforehand so that in the end it is clear that they will continue to spin in a cycle of regret that never ends, and one of the dangers of gambling with borrowed money is that this will create new habits that will lead to new and worse impacts, or simply put you like creating opportunities for the possibility of new bad impacts due to borrowed money, it is not uncommon for us to see gambling addicts who are in debt and they suffer.

No matter who you borrow money from, whether it's one of your friends or a service agent, it's still a very bad idea and not recommended, there will be many problems that arise, not only the problem of losing but also the problems that arise between you and your friends because I'm not sure you can pay when gambling has become a priority in your life and the worst thing is that in the end you will be in debt.

Completely agree wit you bud, most especially in the area of borrowing a gambler money, on no account or circumstances will I ever borrow a gambler money when his or her purpose of borrowing that money is to gamble with it, for from personal experiences I've witness, such help have never ended well, most especially when the gambler loses his bet, which also means that he or she have lost the money he or she borrowed.

And generally, I can't even borrow a gambler my money even if he or she intend using the money for something that is outside of gambling, except the person in question is a very close friend of mine and I completely trust him or her, that even if he or she doesn't pay back the money, I have other ways I can get the money back from him or her.

There's always that kind of reasoning in behind on whatever circumstances or conditions that you might be facing on which if you do win up a bet but due to borrowed funds by someone
then you would be having those thoughts that what if you have bet bigger? for sure you would really be having those kind of imaginary calculations into your mind basing up on the thing
that you have been able to bet but on the time that you have seen that it was a lost bet then you would be just telling into yourself that its good or safe that someone borrowed your money.
There's always an accompanied reason on whatever situations or results or outcomes that it would be giving. The key on here is that you should really be that accepting on whatever the
result would be an never tend to look back if ever you have missed out something.

Those who gamble without having issues of addiction as you explained are the people who understand the concept of gambling and have the maturity to accept the facts about it. This gives them the ability to play the rules of gambling profitably.
About genetic predisposition, the case is arrear but it is possible due to genetic emotions which can be triggered by gambling stress

I think it's simply a genetic variation that occurs in some amount of people, I think it was somewhere around 15% or so, basically not a lot but also not nothing.

You can check if you have that if you find it hard to stop drinking after you started drinking a couple of glasses of alcohol.

Since the feel-good chemicals apply mostly when your blood-alcohol level is increasing, you need to keep drinking to feel like that.

Most people can stop, and feel OK, those people find it hard to do so.

Similar things might apply in gambling addictions.

It is not that similar things might apply to gambling cause similar things already apply to gambling and this is one of many reasons I always said gambling is not for everyone but alot of crypto gamblers of this day find it hard to do some necessary background checks, and if they are capable to control their emotion when the gambling buzz takeover because someone who has the issue of genetic variation will seamlessly become an addict to gambling.

It's true because video game updates do make a lot of changes in the whole game, it even affects the gameplay which means that a player might have their gameplay skills affected after a major update rolls out. So if you are making bets on esports games, you need to make sure that you are closely following the players and the games that you are going to make your bets on so that you don't miss any updates or any gameplay changes for the players.

I believe esports is the most difficult to place your bets on because it's mostly unpredictable, there are certain games where even a novice might win against an expert in some games that they play, so one also needs to know which games they should bet on and which they shouldn't.

Lending money among friends is always a problem, because supposing you lent them that money in order to deal with an emergency, now you will look like the bad guy if you try to get your money back, but lending your money to them for a recreational activity, like gambling, is even more risky, since it is likely you will never see your money back, as I consider a person asking for a loan to keep gambling as a sign they have huge problems to control themselves.

Even on other real life situations on which it isnt just that limited to gambling on which on the time that you dont lend some money specially into your friends or relatives or on the time that you do ignore or reject or trying out to refuse or even trying out to ask for the borrowed money then you would really be looks like the bad man and its not something that surprising. This is why some people doesnt really like to refuse if ever
their friends would really be asking some favor specially if we do speak or talk about money then this is something that do start up for relationships starts to be breaking just because once you do
refuse then it do looks that you arent that a dependable friend. hahaha

This is why whenever my friend do borrow up money then consider those amounts to be considered to be lost and never ever intend to asked out for some repayment or something like this.
Speaking about those missed bets just because they've borrowed the fund then im not that type on trying out to imagine or calculate winnings which i havent been able to bet on.
Simply move on then you are just that fine.
