This was my highest risk.

[Adams0001]

Good thing that the risk you take is worth it in return. Might be a different story now if the bet wasn't hit.

I already did the same thing before although not with the same figures. The feeling was intense and after a win, what an experience.

I also agree with the idea that if we are not ready to face the risks, then we can't hit that big win. There was no safe bet in the first place.

sometimes gamblers need to take high risks to be able to win big, but this of course has significant risks because when the gambling loses it is clear that the gambler will lose a lot of money. and therefore it is important for gamblers to understand their abilities and the risks they take. if gamblers are not able to face the risk that they will lose their money, then gamblers do not need to take high risks just to win big, because after all what is important is what the gambler's financial condition will be like in the future.

Sure, if you need huge money, you need to be taking high risk, so that when the game enters, you will get better profit on it, I like taking risk because I believe without risk you can't achieve your goals, it's just that he won't come sure easily, any gamblers are engaged in risk every day because they want to win, it's just that you need to have a source of income because when you're losing you won't disturb you like that, but when you don't have any place to get money and you are taking high risk with the money you are managing definitely he will cause you problems when you lose However, taking risks is beneficial but you must face challenges. I think I will follow your pattern and play the running thicket if I am as lucky as you. I like how you anticipate your game on betting, so I will utilize your strategy and see if we can win as well .

So have you ever taken such a risk on gambe before?

Every gamble is a risk because you’re staking something and there is a probability that you won’t get neither your stake nor the reward. So, it isn’t about how much but a gamble is a risk. Your amount could be an amount that cannot be risked by someone else while it can also be an amount that isn’t even up to someone’s average lowest stake. So yes, all gamblers have all taken risks.

[South Park]

I wouldn't take this and have never taken such a ludicrous risk as buying someone else's position on a game that I wanted to bet on anyway. You do realize that if you've been there when the bets are being tallied you could've saved so much money and still earn arguably even more money in the process without paying so much money as what you did right now. Good on you for not losing it all but 9 times out of 10 this wouldn't be the case, trust me, and you just got so lucky today.

I'd never go so far as to become stupid for gambling to the point that I'm buying someone else's bets in hopes of winning whatever they could. It's like an investor paying/funding a business that doesn't even exist yet in hopes of earning money in the process. It's not gonna happen. Call me condescending or cynical but it's just not for me, and I think a good amount of people in this forum would agree with me as well.

I would not even call it being cynical, this is simply being a realist, whenever someone makes you an offer you always need to think what that other person is winning by doing so, since it is very rare that someone else is going to actually offer you a deal that is beneficial for you and instead they are looking out for themselves at all times, so if I was given this kind of offer I will immediately reject it since my first impression is that I will be disfavored if I did accept it.

[wiss19]

In terms of gambling, we all know that gambling is full of the risk of losing, therefore we have to be careful and think carefully if we want to take a big risk, like OP did, luckily he was able to win the bet otherwise he might get frustrated. because you have taken a very big risk and luck is something that rarely happens in gambling, taking a big risk can indeed give you big profits, but if you lose then you will also lose a large amount of money, therefore if you are not ready to lose a large amount of money It's best not to try to take big risks.

Of course, even though we know that gambling still has a chance of winning, it is not certain, especially like parlay bets where if you lose even 1 match you will lose the profits you have collected. If you are not ready with the money you are going to bet, you should use the money you have can afford to lose.

When it comes to sports betting, we don't say that it was luck that made us win, we say that we did good research and analyzed the games pretty well and somehow maybe luck also favored us and we won the bets. The reason behind this is that sports betting isn't solely based on one's luck and the results are mainly influenced by individual or team performances of those who are playing the games.

That being said, the risk OP is talking about isn't about the amount in my opinion, but he is trying to say that he has taken a very big risk because there were still two games left in the parlay, and if any of the two games is lost, the whole parlay will be lost and he will lose his money as well.

~snip~

In some situations I'll buy the bets of my friends when I know they're always lucky when predicting games and have won many times. I know gambling is different all the time but some individuals are very lucky when they play and if I have confirmed this to be true, I'll buy his bet and use small wager to play it. The risk is small and if I win. I'll win big therefore it's a risk that's worth it. You're buying his bets therefore you don't have to know the teams that he's picking but trust his prediction.

He's the one making the prediction and he knows the teams he's picking, random individuals aren't good to buy bets from as they can put any team without doing the correct research but your friends would be playing the same game therefore their prediction has to be games they think that's going to be win. They won't intentionally give you a wrong prediction unless you're hanging around evil friends.

If we know our friend's bet can win, we will buy his bet if he offers it to us. There is indeed a risk of losing from the bet he placed, but we know that there is a chance of winning on that bet so we feel that we already know the risk of losing is small so we want to use some money to buy the bet. But that won't happen continuously because there will definitely be times when our predictions are wrong after seeing our friends' bets but we still decide to buy them and cause us to lose.

That's why we also have to be able to analyze every match that will take place so that when a friend offers a bet, we at least know whether we need to buy the bet or skip it and wait for other bets that we know. But if not, we don't need to force ourselves to keep buying the bets, especially if the bets are sold at a price we can't afford. We should place our own bets with the money we can afford so that the risk of losing won't be too big.

I've never bet anything so large that I would end up in a much worse position than I started in.  I know serious gamblers, or more so professional gamblers, which I think is the more appropriate word, tend to take such large risks, but it's part of their game/job and it's just how they have to bet to make it work as a career.  This is why unless you're that, I just wouldn't ever recommend doing something of this nature.

The point is that you really need to be rational when you get some offers from other people such as those who offer to be gamblers that you fund, or other things promoting gambling to you without any cooperation, it all depends on you and maybe we can only suggest something like what you suggest that they really need to be rational and ask for some proof of the winnings that the person who promotes, if they cannot provide or show something as proof that they really make money from gambling then obviously you should feel doubtful and suspicious of them.

I think it's quite simple to make a decision, and  with you bringing a rational attitude then you will really know at least some facts from the suspicion that is in your mind when they promote something without any evidence that can really be trusted and you will be able to get a  conclusion and decision on the considerations that you do by being rational.

But if you think like that you will never start. I think it is necessary to take this risk so that little by little you learn and understand the game and how everything works. What's not worth doing is standing still without betting anything.

Indeed, doing this is extremely risky, and if professional players do it easily, then an unprepared player should not do it. Even if the OP won this time and this was his biggest risk, it does not mean anything, because in a month or a year he will think why not repeat it again, because the last experience was very successful. And ultimately, loss will not be long in coming. We can never relax in gambling and think that we are at the very top. This ruins a lot of players, so the OP should just be happy that he got lucky and not do anything like that again.

No matter how interesting the bet booking game is "winning most of the games'', I can't try the mistake of buying a playing game bet from someone with a high amount. I will advise the person to go for cash out instead of buying the bet from the person.

If the person doesn't want that(cash-out), let them quietly wait patiently for their bet game to finish playing rather than selling it to me at a high cost, like whatever comes out from the bet, I should accept it with my fate, not them been bold enough to accept or wait for their win or loses to their bet games

Never ever in my mind on having those kind of actions on trying out to buy some bets from others and even on how it is good looking or in your favor but doesnt mean that it would be something
ideal on buying specially on big amounts. The possible winning is really that actually good and something that tempting but this one would really be that accordingly on your own preference
if you do see those opportunity then it would be just that depending on you whether you would be taking it or not. It is really just that depending on you whether you would
really be able to bare up yourself with the risks. It would really be just that depending into someone because not all would really be risks taker of course or not really that liking on taking someones bet.

There is no need to do that, just as traders train themselves using demo accounts and paper trades, someone that wants to learn more about sport bets can do the same, by simply mocking the process of actually making a bet but instead they just write it in a piece of paper, this way they can keep record of the results they get without risking any money, this way they can learn almost everything they need to know and save their capital until they are ready to finally take a risk.

I agree, there are mock bets that you can do on a paper and just do it manually. Check if your analysis are going to be correct during and after the game and see if your bet is going to win or not. And when you think that you're ready to take some bets, do it with small amounts. There's the minimum amount requirement for most casinos to place your bet and they're actually too little at all which might also be a good time to experiment. Adding with some real money for your bets will make you realize if you're prepared or not to take the gamble with small or higher amounts. Because if you'll not expand and upgrade after the demos, you might not feel how it actually goes with the process as you gamble.

It's a great idea. By doing this, you can draw up strategies and even create your own model. You add your own parameters and then bet. You can use this in football, basketball etc. I had never thought of it that way.

Probably me too. I most likely won't buy a bet from anybody let alone a multi-bet that could still end up lost.

To a bettor who is selling his bets, I guess it is just a way for them to earn more from it. If they are really satisfied with how far the multi-bet has already gone, there is indeed a cash out option for that. But since they want to get a higher price, they just sell it to other bettors.

Even if the odds are high and the winning prize is big, the buyer still doesn't get much.

Even if trading and professional gambling are different disciplines, at the same time both of them had draw from each other in other to develop their own techniques, so it is not rare that we can copy some of the things traders do and use them to become better gamblers, another technique you can copy from traders is money management and the methods to decide how high should your bet be, as in this way you can maximize the profits you can make, while at the same time you keep your risk at the lowest possible level.

Buying or selling bets? This is quite new to me. Why not just bet and cash it out when you win? What OP showed was a parlay ticket with a total of 177 odds. If that wins, then that should give a good winning amount. Actually, that's hard to achieve; even x10 odds are hard in gambling, so one should be lucky to get that kind of odds for a multi-bet or parlay.

It's an interesting way, you can sell when you reach X and sell it to someone else to take on that risk. Many people would buy this idea and in my view it is something very profitable

It's new to me as well, but the reason why the bettor would sell the parlay is probably because he might have had some doubts about the games that were remaining. After all, if one game is lost, the parlay is lost which means that you lose your money. Now if the bettor placed $50 in the bet, and has managed to win 8 games out of 10, he can still lose his money if one of the remaining games is lost, and for his security, he goes ahead and sells the bet to someone else for them to carry the risk forward.

The buyer of the bet must be a pretty big risk taker because it's not easy taking someone else's risk on your shoulders while paying them their money for the bet back. As the buyer, one needs to have done their research about the remaining games to see if the selected sides have more chances of winning.

So have you ever taken such a risk on gambe before?

Every gamble is a risk because you’re staking something and there is a probability that you won’t get neither your stake nor the reward. So, it isn’t about how much but a gamble is a risk. Your amount could be an amount that cannot be risked by someone else while it can also be an amount that isn’t even up to someone’s average lowest stake. So yes, all gamblers have all taken risks.

Anyone who decides to gamble by risking money, whether in casino game or in sports betting, will always be faced with risks such as losing and, even worse, losing all the money in their balance.
But each person will take their own risks depending on how much money they use, some gamblers will use large amounts of money and some will use small amounts of money.
What is clear is that every risk that occurs must be truly accepted because if each risk cannot be accepted, if it occurs it will have much worse consequences.
Every gambler will have their own attitude in taking risks in gambling.

It just that the most important thing is that we have to be able to consider everything, we are risking money and we have to calculate whether in this bet the risk we take will be commensurate with the results or not.
I see that there are still many gamblers who don't care about things like this.
