Have you ever done something crazy to bet?

[EarnOnVictor]

Hi community,

I remember when I was in middle school, we used to play cards almost every day, and our stupidity reached the point where we would skip classes while we were inside school. The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card. So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected  from selling cigarettes.
Of course, this is not something I am proud of and I do not recommend it to everyone, but it's just childhood memories .

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Heck No! I've never done that before, and not a single ignoble act about betting while growing up. It has always been games among playmates then and even if we bet by mouth when we play some games at "the right hours and at the right places," we did not fulfil our promises since it was never strict but on a friendship level. This is what I expected little ones that have not reach the adulthood to do as well.

Thankfully, you issued the warning about this so that anyone reading it will know that it is not what you are proud of. Everyone has good and bad memories and even if it is bad at times it could still be worth smiling about as it is part of why we are smart when we do something that could even seem odd. Nonetheless, it shows the level at which anyone no matter how little you are could sort for fun and the money.

I grew up in an area that was described as “Ghetto” and so I experienced different forms of gambling. My mom owned a small shop so whenever I sold something from that should, I would not disclose it to her and then I would use the money to gamble. Sometimes when we see two persons argue and want to fight, we would place a bet on either of the parties to win and then make a stake. Gambling with card games and throwing dice was so common that every young guy in my area then was involved in the gambling.

When I went to secondary school. I became so notorious that teachers believed that I was the one influencing other students and luring them to gambling. Sometimes we would snick out from school, change our school uniforms and then go to a game hall where people gamble with other players. While, as I began to advance in age I stopped involving in street gambling because the hostility was high in this area,

Pardon me please but mehnn you did really had a rough childhood, selling cigarettes and gambling combined. How many classes did you actually miss I am quite sure that there are some persons that have done things more worse than this for bets while growing up, and more interestingly there some of us that did some weird things just because of a girl in school we're into.

Maybe I have done something crazy in all my time of gambling especially in my childhood days with mates but can't recollect any of one of those occasions, but as an adult I remember many times I have had to take long route instead of a short cut route on my way back home just so I can stop at a gambling store along the road to book a bet mostly days I don't feel like gambling online for some personal reasons. I think at some points we tend to carry out some weird actions for the love of something we do and gambling is not excluded in that.

Mine is nothing crazy. We also used to play simple betting games in school. There's this one time in high school wherein our teacher in Physics is discussing something in front, and we were at the back playing simple dice games betting some coins here and there. We were like that for a good 30 minutes, only to find out that one of the head teachers was behind our backs and are just observing us. We were sent to the guidance counselor's office and got our parents called because of that incident Fun times, but ever since then I put some distance between me and gambling, and haven't touched it again until I'm working after college.

Gambling and betting is one of the entertainments that I often do with my friends. and the first time I was introduced to gambling was when I was still at school, because at that time my curiosity about this matter was very high, I wanted to try new things that I had never done, including gambling and betting. Playing scratch tickets is a type of gambling that I often play and is usually available at outlets near schools. because at that time we didn't really understand about card gambling and didn't know where to buy the cards.

At that time we only played the type of gambling that was easiest to find. Enduring hunger is something we often do, and this is not because we don't have money, but because we use that money to buy scratch tickets.
Maybe this is one of the dumbest things we've ever done. This is something we can't be proud of, but I can't forget it, where maybe now I can buy lots of scratch tickets, but not with friends. I remember that togetherness...

As I read through your story what I am pondering on is how you guys knew about betting. Who was the first to introduce who to betting and did this type of crazy betting end in middle school or you guys graduated to something more sophisticated?

Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

My own story is far different from yours. Looking back now, there were these types of bets but we didn't refer to them as betting. It was more of daring another person for accomplish a certain feat within a duration of time. If the person did, then the person who dared the other will do some task like write their essay, or give up their launch. We didn't give it much thought then. It will be after 10years that the wave of sports betting would spread through my country and we'd start to bet on real events hoping for a financially rewarding outcome.

While in school I know some of my classmates who gamble using cards mostly in the bushes that surround our school. You don't dare gamble inside the school compound because it will lead to instant expulsion. It is common to see many of my seniors or even classmates outside the school environment gambling.

I have never engaged in this kind of card game but I was into other forms of gambling. We usually form a football team where each member will contribute a sum which would be used to bet with our opponents. A referee will be appointed who will officiate the game and also take custody of the money. The winner will receive the bet money and the team members will share the win after giving the referee his commission. I liked this type of gambling because it is your team's performance that will determine if you win or lose. It is common to see our classmates doing their best just to ensure that they win the bet. It was a good experience because this gambling football match is the true picture of gambling for entertainment and not just for money.

The method of playing was easy, as the largest number was the winning card.

I also placed bet on game like this with my friends when I was in school, but we don’t play the game during the school hour, we do play the game mostly after closing from school, instead of me to go back home, I will head to my friends house and we will gamble first before I will go home. I hardly spend the money given to me when am going to school, I do save it to gamble after closing from school. Sometimes we do decide to place a bet on it, why sometimes we just do it just for fun, we laugh and have fun.

So, some of my friends and I would gather in the middle school bathroom and make bets with the money that we had collected  from selling cigarettes.

Waw so your friend sells cigarettes? That’s really serious, but gambling in school bathroom is kind of risky, because you are likely going to be busted one day, that’s really crazy to me, and it’s surprises me as you said your friend sells cigarettes,  then maybe you have a lots of bad friends during your childhood.

[serjent05]

I haven't done anything crazy just to gamble.  Ever since my childhood, I have not been hooked on gambling.  I gamble yes, but I always gamble within my limitations. I also don't have any escapades like skipping classes or going to unfamiliar places just to gamble.  Maybe I am so afraid that my parents may find me if I do such things and get heavily scolded. 

In short, I prioritize important matters over my gambling activity.

Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Now, I wonder what is the connection of this question to your storytelling?  But to answer this question, I have not experience betting at a wrong place and the wrong time, probably betting on the wrong team... but I doubt that it would be at the wrong time since it was a scheduled match...

[Findingnemo]

Cigars and betting in school that's crazy as *uk.

I don't remember doing anything like that to be honest, kind of disciplined kid in the school days and then as well, I only used to bet on fantasy that's kind of crooked game still I went to bet because the amount is too good to be true if I actual tops the table and that's happened a couple of times that I consider still a crazy decision.

Each country has a different school system and you can be expelled for doing one thing, but in another country the same thing will only get you a warning. A great example of such differences is the attitude towards cheating on tests. In my school if you were caught you'd only fail the test, but in many schools in the US it's a serious offense.

I am not degrading the education system or OP himself I just imagined how crazy it will be if I were in that situation. The rules are kind of similar everywhere but how serious when it gets implemented in the real world defines the country/educational institutions. Last but not least bullying is criminal offence in US but is there any country where we can say there is complete bully free.

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

While I was still in university, I placed bets in class while lectures were going on, I placed bets in some meeting sections, and I also played plinko and crashed at the wrong time, but that was all in the past. Some things I have done because of gambling are not really serious crazy things; I feel it's a normal thing that it's usually common among other gamblers. Most gamblers, during their early stages, have actually done some crazy things for the sake of gambling. Some months ago, a topic was created here where the OP was emphasizing gamblers who sold their property and used the money to gamble. Some people comment that they have actually sold some property to gamble, and that is a common thing.

Anyone who hasn't done any stupid things in their adolescent stage didn't have much fun at their adolescent age.

Most of us were caught up in stupid things when growing and when we look back at that, we laugh because it is a childhood memory that we did when we knew nothing of.

Like mine, during weekends, I normally missed my breakfast and lunch with my friends because of the habit of, knowing who was faster than the other at writing inside a 20-leave exercise book within 3 hours(to fill it up with what is written inside the textbook). Whoever wins at the end of the day, takes home the little money we have saved up during our school days hours.

[Assface16678]

Everyone really has done stupid things or crazy things just for gambling, and we all have those things. What crazy things have I done just to play gambling? Stealing: yes, I learned how to steal money from my family and, worst of all, from my friends. I still didn't notice back then that what I'm doing is wrong and should never ever be done, but because I'm too addicted to gambling, I couldn't control myself and ended up doing those things. But of course, thankfully, I suddenly woke up and thought that what I'm doing for others will also happen to me, or it will backfire, so from then on, I controlled my gambling obbies. If I had extra money, instead of using it for investment, I used it for investment, but of course sometimes I still gamble, but with limited capital for gambling. In order for me not to overboard my experiences or losses in gambling,.

I've actually done something that's extremely crazy just because I want to gamble and that was one of the craziest things I've done in my life. Growing up, I was living with one of my uncles who's has be funding my high school education so one day, I was asked to given huge amount to money by that uncle of mine to go get food items that'll be used to prepare food for the whole household including his wife children and few other person that was living in that same roof. I was on my way to the market when I saw gambling store and was tempted to go in and gamble from the money so I can win and make extra money but unfortunately for me, I failed to I lost all the money that was used to send me on errand.
It was after I've totally lost the money that I recalled that I was actually sent to get good items with the money and that was when my spirit jumped out of my body because I know I was going to be merciless beaten at home. I had to sleep out that night in a friend's house who helped me a little money the next day bit I was still beaten for making everyone in the house to go to bed without eating anything

[Slow death]

Before I make a bet I analyze the game very well, so after I see the results of the games and see that I lost, I don't have any regrets and I don't feel sad, from the beginning I already put in my head the option of defeat is more likely to happen than the option of victory, this way I prepare myself very well mentally, now there are some times when I wanted to bet on a team and I fail to bet on another team and only find out when the games are over. I've had many cases of this type, but I'm correcting myself on this part, talking about other mistakes, well over 15 years ago, when I was at school I arranged with my friends so that after school we would go to a field to play football and make a bet on which of the teams would win

The winning team kept all the money, but there were times when the temperature made it night very early and as we didn't want to stop playing because we were betting, we chose to escape school early because that way we could play while we still had money. sun and when I got home my parents found out because my teachers called them and I was grounded, but even so I repeated doing the same thing. Today, when I look back and remember those times, I laugh to myself. There were times when there were no colored cell phones, so people spent more time together, today people prefer phones and only spend time with other people when they are drinking alcohol

[Rruchi man]

-Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Yes I have but not recently. And it was at a time when I was still guilty of gambling for money, these are the few times that I received game codes for sports betting that someone else analyzed, and placed them most times at the wrong time and place.  I stopped trusting people because of the errors. I feel that any gambler who denies and claims to never have bet at the wrong time or place have maybe not gambled enough or just telling lies to make them look good.

[danherbias07]

We also have done something wrong while I was still in high school. We call the game "Adding".
How it works: 1 player will choose a paper money, fold it so that the opponent won't see, hand it to him so there will be no cheating that will happen by switching the paper money, and the other will pick 3 numbers out of the 6 serial numbers. Add them up, whatever the "ones" is your score. Example 8+8+6 = 22, you only get "2" as your score. The remaining 3 numbers will be added by the 1st player and if he has a higher one then he will win.

We do this against the students in the room next to us. Sometimes the bets could go large because it's one room of students against the other. We are lucky we are not caught but there are times when someone will report us. Another student who loves playing the good guy/girl. Happy times!

[alani123]

I'm hearing my friend who is a computer professor in middle school that so many kids are trying to find ways to play gambling games at school these days. And even if the sysadmin tries to block a ton of websites, they'll come up with creative ways of still gambling. For example some kids had a random number generator from google.com and kept using it to gamble IRL... Of course google.com can't be blocked without seriously affecting a computer's ability to be useful.

So now the school has completely banned free use of computers, even in its library! Only when filling tasks and programming assignments will students be able to use a computer, and much of that time without a network connection.

I have not been into physical gambling rigth from time, and even up to this extent I hardly take part in any physical gambling I can watch others playin6the games but me myself don't gamble in that manners, but then I have experience alot of strang gambling before to the point that some guys plays card in front of the police station meanwhile public betting could persecuted in my country.

Although at the end they know how to sort themselves out with the police, to me believe that that is the highest wird thing to do, I also a remember another incident that happened when I was serving youth service in the northern part of my country,  where some students usually jump school fence to go outside to bet on cards staking real money.

[Yatsan]

Have you ever bet at the wrong place and the wrong time?

Honestly, yes. I was betting in the office where I work but realized it eventually that it won't benefit me in anyway. I was just fulfilling the act of being able to bet but wasn't paying that much attention to the betting activity myself. Result? being unaware of loss and impulsion with bets. I've learned that it is better to bet wnehever I am totally free of other tasks or things to do because it allows me to think more logically especially with gambling games requiring or needing decision making like with sportsbetting abd with card games. If you are just betting alone and not with planned bets, then you are simply testing your luck. I do get the idea that luck is a key player in gambling but losing could be sometimes lessen with some strategies and analysis, although with no certainty, but if you have the option to lessen the risk, what would be a valid reason not to do so right?
