What You will do in this situation?

[Rufsilf]

A few days ago, my house was being cleaned. Three people are cleaning the front and back yards of the house. One of them was playing slots and I saw him. Actually, I wanted to suggest he try sports betting because I often see the guy watching football matches and he does have knowledge about many teams. So I was wondering if I could introduce him to sports betting so he could use his ability to predict every game he knows about.

Besides that, I just feel that if he deposited $10 = IDR 150,000 into a gambling site just to play slots, he would probably suffer a complete loss. But if he can place bets on sports betting, there is a possibility of him winning some money on small bets. Wouldn't that be an advantage for him?

If you were in this situation, what would you do? Introduce him to sports betting or let him stick to playing slots. Yesterday, I just let it go but we still often meet at other activities.

Even yet, I believe that it is inappropriate and still not advised to gamble while at work—whether it be by playing slots or placing a wager on sports. Nevertheless, if you two are related, then by all means give him advice on anything without making fun of his games. From what I've read in your statement, I believe he prefers to play and bet on slots, even though he may be knowledgeable about football or sports betting. If he wants to play slots, then, by all means, let him.

If you are worried that he might lose a lot of money gambling on slots and you might want to introduce him to sports betting so that he can make even little wins and avoid losing too much, then think about having a supportive chat with him.  You two can talk about your possible losses and wins, maybe exchange ideas, and perhaps discover why he prefers to play slots over sports wagering.

[Docnaster]

I am a little harsh when giving advice to someone. So when I find someone who behaves like that, I will immediately reprimand him and curse him a little. because he really can't act professionally at work. Moreover, this is team work, where when the team works, everyone must work together without exception. And if indeed he cannot control his gambling well and cannot work professionally. So there are only two choices, stop gambling or you will be fired from this job.

Because someone who is wise knows exactly when it is time to gamble and when it is not. They know exactly what is a priority and what is just entertainment. And we must remember that whether gambling is good or bad depends on who is doing it. I will never forbid an employee or worker from being involved in gambling, but provided that they have good discipline and time management.

I strongly agree to your opinion on the subject matter because everything you said aligned with my own personal opinion as well. There's time for everything and whenever it's work time, no member of the team is allowed to do anything that's contrary to our goal and target of the day including gaming of any kind.

For a gambler not to be able to control his gambling activities at work, it simply means he's already addicted to gambling and as a colleague, I'll do everything within my strength to make sure he's saved from gambling addiction.  So if I come across anyone at the office who's gambling during work hours, I'll make sure I caution him ajd tell him about how bad it is to be engaging in gambling at the place of work. I'm sure that when that when I persuade him not to do it again, he'll definitely stop that act

Not a bad idea to introduce him to sports betting but actually, it's out of our business anymore. Playing slots regularly as you noticed, that guy is aware of sports betting but instead, he is focused on playing slots. It means the interest in sports betting is not there.

He will also have a hard time keeping up with the gambling part in sports betting as even how good he is at doing analysis, there are lots of betting options in a certain match and likely, some of his analysis will fall on a not worthy odds to consider. Therefore, he needs to do another analysis again just to be able to ride the preferred odds he wants.

If they are doing their job well the way you want it, you need to mind your business because, maybe they are using that cleaning job to gamble and to pay other bills that will help them to live a free live in the environment and there are some people who don't show up as a gamblers base on some family they came from.

There are some people the moment you tell them about what you saw them doing at the working place, they will start avoiding you for some reason because, their minds will be thinking different things that will make them to be far from you even though you have some job for them to do for you

What?! Job well done or not, discipline must be there. Not to gamble at the workplace comes first.

And, it's not about forcing the other type of gambling which is sports gambling which OP was talking about, it's about suggesting a better chance of winning. He said the cleaning guy already has a history of watching football games so he must know something about the rules, teams, statistics, names of players, and other details that could maybe enhance that chance of winning.
Well, after the cleaning job is done I think it's a good idea to talk about sports first, then they could start talking about introducing him to sports gambling.
There are many ways to make a discussion smooth and not make it look like we are forcing it on them. First, it must look appealing to them and if he is really watching the said sport then I doubt it will be difficult to make him switch games. But, there's no guarantee that he won't come back looking for slots again.
IMO, I tried stopping playing casino games but I am still being pulled to test my luck, although a bigger chunk of my budget for gambling now go to sports betting.

I would hesitate to come off as though you know something he doesn't.  If the guy is gambling playing slots on his phone at work, don't you think he is already aware that he could be betting on sporting events?  Especially considering you say he already watches sports and gambles...  It's quite possible he enjoys the immediate dopamine rush of a win with slots.  They do provide more sounds and lights, etc.  Maybe he's just trying to pass some time and get a quick pick me up in his mood.  I would imagine it's also possible that he already engages in sports betting, but playing slots is likely much more recognizable an activity.

[Smartvirus]

I rather have my peace than have to introduce anyone to an activity that could be addictive. Gambling is a very sensitive and risky business hence, having to teach one just another aspect to it that could possibly cause more losses is one thing that shouldn’t be done.
Who knows, he might just be good at the slot he plays and slots are played with very little funds. A few cent is enough to afford you few rounds but, that isn’t the case for sports betting. Sports betting have a more high stake for a limit compared to casino games.
In all, they both offer different advantages but, I have the feeling who ever is into some sports and gambles, will also be aware of the opportunities or markets to gambling that exists within the game.

Why not, if he is into gambling then having an option to win is much better. I would simply talk like a friendly approach, ask what site he is using, what usual games are he up to, just don't ask how much his lost already, then suggest sports betting which i would share if i'm on that time. Just tell him cons of sports betting compare to traditional games, like it's much longer to see the result since it will based on the result of the game.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

I doubt if he's unaware with sports betting, most casinos already have slots, table games and sports.

He's very much aware of sports betting, football is the most popular sports in the world and its betting platforms are readily advertised on different platforms  even most time while watching it, they set out time to advertise different platforms as have  subscribed with the channel. We see such during half time breaks, before and after the match. Even thinking as ads When browsing, so the awareness is widely created.

Now, there something with preference, the guy prefers slot games and probably, it makes him happy, the allow him play slots and live in peace. You might even be surprised he still plays soccer betting too, but has higher preference for slots.

He probably enjoys playing slots because it is more "spontaneous", fun to play and more interactive than sports betting. Again, he can make quick profits (and losses) when playing slots while he has to wait for the "results" when he bets on sports, which he doesn't like. And how do you know that he isn't betting in sports while playing slots? Maybe he does both. And I am pretty much sure someone who gambles and plays slots, doesn't need to be introduced to sports betting. They already know what it is. And even if you did introduce him and he starts betting a lot and loses everything, very likely he will blame you for the outcome. What you can do is not get involved into his gambling affairs and do your own thing.

[davis196]

Why do you think that he doesn't know anything about sports betting? There's no need for you to "introduce" him to sports betting.
The guy probably likes the low IQ gambling games like slots. That's just a personal preference. Some gamblers like playing slots, while others hate slots. Some gamblers like betting on sports, while others hate sports betting. If I was on your place, I would just mind my own business and let him play whatever gambling game he wants. Giving gambling advice to someone else is a bad move, because he might blame you for losing a big amount of money on sports betting.

Leave him in his position. I don't think there is a necessary to notice others Even it is true that he can loss his $10 at once by slot game on the others hand he can also win huge by this actually profit and winning never guaranteed on gambling. He can also loss his fund on sports betting. And I don't think he don't know about sports betting cause you have already say that he have a good knowledge about sports team. Maybe you like playing slot game.

Time is required for a gambler to change his preference. The feeling of changing games often times doesn't work for every gambler. There are gamblers like me, that mainly play specific games and try to learn through them. During periods of repeating the strategy, I understood our prediction could get better depending on how much time we've invested playing and observing the game. However, the strategy also depends on the type of game. Hence trying to make changes on some attitude of a gambler, requires lots of time. People hardly change. Although they'll definitely think about it. Luckily it works just fine, but if tries that and fails. He'd definitely have Op at the back of his mind, as the cause of his misfortune. Sharing advise directly to a gambler is not simple and needs more guidelines than people or gamblers may think. They have no slightest inkling of what the gambler would say or think about the advice. So, it's better to add that you felt advising him is fun and great than you both staying calm and not talking to one another. He should be aware of taking full responsibility in the future, when he decides to adhere to your instruction.

Not every sport fanatic is sports bettor or supporter of sports betting which means they have their own way of enjoying the game and if they have a desire to gamble then they probably know what they want to do as well. So just let him be, no need to create an illusion that if he does sports betting instead of playing slots he can make profits which is basically a wrong idea.

That's what I also believe. As someone with quite limited knowledge about football and sports betting, I tend to go with safer options or known teams in uneven matches, mostly in the Greek Football Super League. I can imagine OP's friend having better luck than I do, due to his extensive knowledge regarding football teams. However, I don't find it necessary to attempt to persuade him into something else; if he enjoys slots, let him be; maybe there's a reason behind why he's not into sports betting. You can simply introduce him to sports betting by showing him how everything works, but nothing more, as you may be held liable if he's to lose any significant amount of money.

I see gambling as a game of interest and personal, people choose to play a particular game based on how familiar they are with the game and the confidence of winning they have towards the game. I don't think it is proper for you to advice someone to play another kind of game that he is not used to. If he is a good foot fan that knows much about football it doesn't mean he will be a good gambler and since he never believe in his self to be a good sport gambling and no experience to back him up. It is better for him to make his decisions on choosing game to play for himself. If he decides to choose sport betting and he lose, all blame will be on you. Let him be the one to choose for himself since the money use in playing bet belongs to him.

[zaim7413]

If you ask what I would do, then I would reprimand him for playing slots while working. While his two friends were focused on their work, he was enjoying playing slots. This action is very detrimental to me or my father who pays him to work and his friends also feel disadvantaged if the wages earned are divided equally. I prefer to introduce things to him outside working hours, there is still other time to discuss this issue.

Maybe he prefers playing slots even though his knowledge of football games is very extensive, but there's no harm in trying to give him advice. Regardless of whether he likes placing bets on football matches or not, the important thing is that you have guided him to bets that might be easier to win than playing slots.

You can just casually talk to him and ask him has he ever tried sports betting or not.
If he has already tried then may be he's more into luck based game like slots then sports betting.
If he hasn't tried then you can show him how it's done once.

Another way is just ask him about a match and who is gonna win and then tell him that you will be betting on the match.
Then it depends on his curiosity and you will find out whether he wants to do sports betting or not.

It's true that most gamblers have a preferred game that they enjoy playing. It's not always easy for them to switch to a different type of game, even if they have knowledge and understanding of the rules. For example, just because someone is skilled in sports, it doesn't necessarily mean that they will be successful in sports betting. Therefore, it's important to let gamblers play the game that they enjoy and are most comfortable with, rather than trying to make them switch to a different game.

People tends to like one thing or the other, may he is a football club fans but he might not necessarily like betting on sports itself, though advising on that note is not bad, with what you said I cone to believe that it is possible for him to win in sports betting than that of slot because he can just decide to choose his favourite and most informed team to stake on them, when he do this 2 to 4 times he might be lucky to win, if you try to convince him and he doesn't buy the idea, the you should leave him to his fate, but your narration and idea is not a bad one, if he considers sports betting he will make more fortune compare to when he is playing the game of slot.

That's right, it's possible, as you said that maybe he doesn't really like sports betting even though he basically has knowledge that can be said to be at least enough to help him run sports betting which can also allow him to get some wins based on his knowledge in the world of sports. I understand that what the OP is suggesting is indeed quite good to switch to sports betting because indeed this type of game like slot is really purely dependent on luck while on the other hand anyone will never know when he will be lucky and this is the reason why it is difficult to get a win in slot games and instead what happens is that defeat often dominates, But on the other hand there is still a possibility that the person does not know at all about sports betting and this can be used as a reason why he does not choose sports betting over slot games, and my other assumption is that it is also possible that he does both of these bets but when he is at the OP's house he only engages in slot games. But on the other hand if he really doesn't know about the existence of sports betting then obviously what the OP suggested is good enough for him.
