Have you ever done something crazy to bet?

[South Park]

I've definitely had my share of "oops" moments. Like this one time, I placed a bet on a basketball game, not realizing the team's leading scorer was out due to injury. I was so sure of my bet until the game started and the announcers mentioned the injury. It was a forehead-slap moment, but it taught me to always check the latest team news before placing a bet  

Those are the kind of things that can happen to anyone, I remember that something similar happened to me once when playing poker, I took a look at my cards and I had an Ace and a King, and in the community cards there were two Aces and a King, so I had a full house and I was pretty sure I had my competitor beat, however when it came the time to the showdown I realized to my dismay that I had an Ace and a Jack, needless to say I lost the hand and some money by that mistake.

Not just in gambling, whenever we want to do something that requires risking our emotions and finances, looking at the family and kids who also would need the funds is a strong factor. It's like an energetic hold back to the person, to stay strong for his family and loved ones. When gambling recklessly it affects not just the gambler, but many other people who look up to him. Being thoughtful as a gambler helps in building strong self-control so as not to fall off into a negative part of gambling. Doing something crazy for the sake of gambling has never been my thing, but don't know what it could be in the future.

Well, when it comes to having funds for the family, it is something that for me is very untouchable, and one should not even imagine having those funds to play in a casino, it is totally irresponsible, it is clear that people Those who are almost there and pass this limit because things don't work out well because basically things tend to be very persuasive and when they spend that money, then they get into worse problems, because a family has to be responded to, then the A person who has to choose to look for someone who can pay him off with a loan or something so that he can resolve his economic emergency, but again, a person who does that is totally irresponsible, and yes, it falls within the parameters of madness.

I call this a blind bet, and many times I have made Bets this way and I have won, I have also lost but I have no idea which players were Injured , sometimes as a player we can miss those details and for that reason it is Because we must have many good things to do Better , when it comes to betting it is better to calculate everything because what we risk is always money and money is what we are looking for, so for this type of thing it is not betting just for fun , we must bet To look for money we should not do it just to be fashionable or because everyone bets, I have Friends who bet Because others bet and I don't see that well, they do it so as not to get hurt or anything, sometimes they bet Without knowing, for that reason It's that things are always done to make decisions by helping each other by groups, op by Internet..

In my opinion, using family funds for gambling is an excessive action, because if it's like that then the perpetrators will be even more emboldened to use other funds that they shouldn't use for gambling which will only result in them continuing to run out of money, because what you say is true. Actions like this are very irresponsible, because they involve other people with their addiction problems. They dare to take this action because the gambling they are doing is not going well, but it is also because they themselves are the ones who reacted wrongly to gambling.

Gamblers who do crazy things, such as using family funds to gamble or taking out loans to gamble, usually do this when they have run out of money. but when they do crazy actions like this just for gambling then obviously they will only get worse problems, and also that is a step towards the destruction of life, I myself do gambling but I don't want to experience that. therefore I don't want to lose self-control when gambling. Play gambling appropriately, don't let gambling play on us.

If using their savings and money that belongs to them to gamble is already an irresponsible move, using the money that belongs to their family is an even more irresponsible action that shows that such a person has lost complete control over themselves and their gambling, and nothing more but an intervention by their family and therapy by professional has any chance to help those people, as it is clear that if they continue on that path, they will find it incredibly difficult to overcome their addiction on their own.

That is the last red line I think for a gambler when they use such a behavior.After that there is nothing except true madness and some even have faced jail for their illegal behavior as that is the only thing remaining to be done by such individuals.I think that as soon as someone borrows money to gamble,use money that is not of his own they should directly realize that they need to seek professional help in order to save themselves from even more trouble which is guaranteed to come if they continue with their reckless behavior,the more they go down deep in this behavior the more the chances to ruin their life and the life of those near them.Unfortunately many people are afraid to ask professional help even when they realize it they have got big problems because of what society will think of them and this is a section we all need to improve it.

Honestly so far and as far as I can remember, I have never done anything crazy just to get involved in gambling, I understand that such decisions can be made by gamblers but I think most gamblers who have a proper understanding of gambling they will not want to do something too reckless like that, because they understand that there are possible risks that will continue to lurk them wherever and whenever they gamble so risk management is a top priority such as applying many restrictions to prevent or minimize something too significant like losing.

On the other hand I am with some gamblers who even dare to take risks that are really far from their abilities that they even go to the extent of using all means just to gamble when they don't have money such as borrowing, stealing, robbing or cheating and usually they are gamblers who from the start only focus and think about the chances of winning so that when they succeed in winning one of the wins then usually they will put very high hopes and confidence in winning and obviously these are gamblers who will eventually lead to the addiction phase.

When they dare to use their family's money, I think they are already seriously addicted, where they dare to take actions that take big risks which could even harm other people, such as their family or friends. with those who dare to carry out such actions, it seems like they have completely lost self-control, where they think that gambling can indeed give them a win, even though the gambling they do ends in defeat, but they think that the next time they gamble they can just keep winning like this. That.

If they are like that then it could get worse if they just keep quiet, I also have a brother who likes to gamble, but up to now everything is still fine, but if one day I hear he is doing something crazy, of course I will intervene and help him. prevent doing anything even crazier, such as using his family's money or even selling the property he owns to gamble.

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?

That is very normal in a student from mostly 3rd world country ,where student are
Finding ways to double their money because of them lacking in allowances as
I can relate in this one, we even experimenting games just to satisfy our gambling
Habits and yeah , sometimes skipping classes , spending all our allowances and
Not listening to our parents and teachers.

The 90's kids.
No smartphones which is why we use other means to entertain ourselves and that's when we are also exposed to gambling because games ain't fun anymore but when we put money in it, it becomes more exciting.
I cannot blame anyone on that era even with how strict their parents are because we do love experimenting with things to amuse ourselves. I skipped classes many times because of gambling too and I am never proud of it. Still, those memories will be kept as they are good ones where being social is too simple.
Mostly, I cut classes and play basketball outside and that's where the gambling begins. A bet amount per person while we are still wearing school uniforms and leather shoes.

Those who use money owned by their family are very irresponsible people and those types of gamblers are those who have lost their minds because of gambling. Because I remember that there was a neighbor like that where he used his savings for his child's education just to gamble on slots. He used all the savings and didn't care about his child's education. Even though they had been collecting these savings for years, it was only because he was addicted to slots that he didn't think rationally and used money that he shouldn't have used. I am very concerned about the families of these addicts, because their families are victims of their addiction.

Someone who use his savings for playing gambling must be careful and have a very good self control. Otherwise, he will not have a chance to hold himself from stops playing gambling instead will continue his gambling activity until he wins the games. He will not responsible with his gambling activity because his desire will asks him to keeps playing gambling and spends more money. Yes, he will lose control over himself without he realizes because his minds also telling him that he can wins in the next few rounds. But that will not happens easily as gambling is just an activity to have fun and not for make money so he will not wins easily as he thinks. If he can't realizes about that, he will not stay too long in gambling instead will lose his money including his savings without have a chance to recovers his lose.

I think this is great advice.

At the end of the day it is different to everyone.

Some people might be happy just to gamble a bit from time to time, but others will never stop until they are broke.

It requires self control to actually not become broke.

Those who playing gambling a bit from time to time must be careful because they will not realizes that their money can be bigger to be used to playing gambling. If they don't have good self control, they will not realizes that they will adds more money to playing gambling, even if that's just $1-$5 in every time they playing gambling. That's because gambling can tempts those people easily, especially if they are lacks of self control and wants to playing gambling from time to time.

But if they can't stops themselves from gambling and not doing the other activities, that can really makes them lose much money. When that's happens, they will not realizes that their lose becomes bigger. It's why we must have self control to always prevents the big lose.

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

Oh, so many times I can't even remember all of them! I think all gambler can say the same. Is it wrong to bet at the wrong place and the wrong time? I wouldn't say so. Sometimes those are exactly the bets that you win, but other times, yeah, you lose them, that happens as well. Once I during the day that was my Birthday I bet on 99.99 to come on a dice site with the probability of wining my bet equal to 0.01%. It was the wrong time for betting because I try to never gamble during holidays, especially during my birthday. But the funny bit is that I actually won my bet. I decided to make 30-40 tries, but I won it from the 24th try! I bet with only $0.001 so I won less than $10 from that 9,900x multiplier, but it was a nice Birthday present for me.

[irhact]

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

Well, most individuals especially the youths have an experience concerning this. I in particular is not left out, during my high school days, I and some colleagues would gather at a corner after school hours to rolls dice, the person who gets the highest number wins and i used to win most times cause i was good at dice games but I was very unlucky on a particular day and I lost some money I saved for my upkeep.

 To be honest I won't advice youths to do that cause just like the OP said, it's not something to be proud of and most times some dudes who lost would pick up a fight due to provocations from other guys which is very bad. I'm not against gambling cause it has some benefits too but what I'm trying to say is that individuals especially youths should desist from illegal gambling that could lead to violence or lose of life.

All team strategies are not the same so it is better to check the teams before betting so that the number of losses is much less. I have never taken betting very seriously and I have little experience here in the gambling area and bet without understanding would be risky. That's why sometimes caught for fun but never crazy about it.

That's right, different team strategies can lead to different outcomes for the individual, that's for sure.

But the main thing still remains the same, that it is a gambling, random event, so people will inevitably lose money in the long term in the expected outcome.

Sure, some few one in a million will make bank, but the vast majority will pay for it.

I guess better if the family's money is not involved with this gambling habit because once you lose all that money your family can use those for other things that could help a lot to future purposes like education, emergency funds, sustainable for daily living expenses it has a big impact, instead, no one thinking about the money because they know you have the resort of it. For me ideally having a stable job to sustain your gambling addiction rather than taking a loan, seeking family members' money or debt just to play gambling.

[FanEagle]

When they dare to use their family's money, I think they are already seriously addicted, where they dare to take actions that take big risks which could even harm other people, such as their family or friends. with those who dare to carry out such actions, it seems like they have completely lost self-control, where they think that gambling can indeed give them a win, even though the gambling they do ends in defeat, but they think that the next time they gamble they can just keep winning like this. That.

If they are like that then it could get worse if they just keep quiet, I also have a brother who likes to gamble, but up to now everything is still fine, but if one day I hear he is doing something crazy, of course I will intervene and help him. prevent doing anything even crazier, such as using his family's money or even selling the property he owns to gamble.

I do agree that when you use someone else's money, that is the way to avoid it. I remember Miami mayor when I talk about things like this, or even El Salvador president, they invest and they do not gamble, but they are using others money to make these investments.

Even they are told not to do that because it is others money, and that's just the fact that it is investment. Imagine people who gamble with others money, that's even worse. Just take a look at the lending option of this forum, you will see plenty of people who are looking for money that they could gamble with, and they could end up with a situation that would make more sense, they are just doing silly moves by trying to get a loan and then spend that on gambling, and repay if they win, or vanish if they lose.
