How has big wins and jackpot stories affected your gambling habit?

[Hewlet]

we know that apart from the fun that some gamblers enjoy while gambling, the majority of others gamble basically because they want to make money from gambling, and in doing this, I have come to notice that gambling stories play a great role in determining if a gambler will reduce his gambling, go more aggressive in terms of the amount used in gambling or even quite gambling momentarily.

I've read and watched stories of people who hit a big jackpot and from a first-person point of view, the first thing that comes to mind is that " I wish I was the lucky person" and the effect of such an experience has always been to keep trying with the hope that I might get lucky to win my jackpot.

Have you ever increased the amount you normally used in betting just because someone you know won big by betting with a greater amount?

I can’t actually tell that my gambling habit is certainly affected with those gambling big wins and jackpot stories simply because, I know exactly that gambling will only make you profitable if you are good and lucky enough on the games you played, otherwise you will only lose a lot while chasing big wins.

Some may lose, others may win big time, and this is the real scenario with gambling. However, I do believe that it’s mostly losses than win, no matter how you try to stake bigger, it won’t guarantee a big win but most likely a huge loss instead. And the more you bet with bigger amount, the more losses you’ll incur, that’s how unfair gambling is.

I have indeed read those jackpot stories, from both lottery winners and also from people who had an extremely good luck session while playing slots. Though, I have not allowed those foreign experiences to affect the amount of money I usually wager on a casino or to switch to other games which would be the same on which those people managed to hit those jackpots. Though, I admit the temptation is always there for me to try a little bit harder than usual, I try not to fall into it.
By the way, I did not know those stories were also shared in first-oerson format, that is quite clever if the objective is inciting others to try and get the same result.
Whatever... Regardless on the effectiveness of those advertisements, any gambler who considers themselves to be responsible should never allow advertisements to dramatically increase their wager.

I'd admit that at a time, for the sake of winning big, I was momentarily trying a strategy I had in mind to utilize long ago but hesitated to use it. That is the thoughts of winning big made me not to hesitate in giving the strategy a shot. I think the thoughts of winning big played out to be a catalyst which pushed me to try out the long awaiting strategy. However, it was just on a strategy not on money. Although it'll have to make me wager a bigger amount than usual. Yet, that doesn't mean I'd be going compulsively on achieving the big wins. It's all in me that some day it'll show up, don't know when it'll be.

Contrarily, I've never been in a situation where I wished I won just like the other guy next to me. Because, I know, somehow, the end of the road for the money, myself inclusive. I used to think of being a better person when it comes to handling the money properly, but have been opportune to understand how the jackpot works by learning from others. Then, it came to me that anybody can easily spend out all their winnings in a short period. That didn't or wouldn't stop me from expecting a jackpot, as it's part of the game and fun to hit.

From a personal point of view, such stories do not influence my gambling at all. I am aware that the probability of winning the lottery does not change cause you are extra motivated by a news article on some dude who won half a million dollars. He was the one a million possibilities and it is still not profitable to chase becoming that person.

Just have fun while gambling, you could make some money along the way, and lose some too, but nothing life changing. Invest in skills you can acquire to get income.

For me, it's very risky to draw motivation from stories of huge wins and jackpots. It's normal to feel excited and hopeful for such a win, but using the story as a self-motivation to continue gambling and staking a huge amount can cause the person to become a compulsive gambler.

It's better off being on your cool and maintaining your normal and safe gambling practices with the belief that one day you are going to get lucky too.

A gambler who wins the jackpot today was never aware that's what was going to happen that day; it usually happens unaware to the gambler. So, even if you get motivated by the story and decide to gamble aggressively, you are not sure when you will get a huge win.

I don't allow such stories to affect my gambling lifestyle.

[Yatsan]

Unfortunately, from some of my known friend's experiencing it quite triggered him to bet more than his usual wagering pattern. He's not blaming anyone but the feeling itself is just something that could give a gambler, that drive to experience more. If we would go deeper, this might be because winning is a bit rare at least to majority of gamblers. Experiencing it on the other hand could give you hope and expectations that winning is really possible. Greed basically. I've never hit the jackpot but at this point that I'm now aware of my gambling patterns, I'd probably take a paause from gambling if ever I would be winning one. This is to secure the profit, basically and to not let emotions gamble for me.

Some people might get inspired on these stories but I think people should focus more on the journey before those big wins, than to just look at the result already. That might be more helpful to remind gamblers that there is no such thing as an easy way in gambling industry.

One's gambling habit can be influenced by the story of a jackpot win. But the extent to which these gambling habit can be influenced depends on if the person who wins the jackpot is a close friend or just a random person. If it were a friend that won the jackpot, I would want to take a higher risk, gamble more frequently than usual in the hopes that his luck rub off on me too. If it were some random dude on the internet, I could care less. Absolutely no effect on me whatsoever.

It doesn’t affect the size of my bankroll but rather the game I’m playing. I frequently copy the same game which the big win happened when I saw someone win big on that specific slot game. This gives me motivation that I can experience the same multiplier but not the same winning amount.

I’m thinking realistically based on my bankroll capacity. It’s absurd to think that you will win same jackpot amount that has a high bet stake on it while you have tiny bankroll due to your financial status.

So my girlfriend's younger sister and her friend played a girl, and she won a very big amount and her friend won more.

How it happened: I went to visit my friend and I saw lots of properties in her house, so I asked her how they came. She told me her sister played a game and won a very big amount, which she used to pay her school fees. She bought a slider and a standing fan. You can imagine the amount she won because she still had enough to shop for clothes.
The story really interests me because I was so broke during that period, and I was wishing I knew about the code before then. So I asked her for her contact information and started requesting a code to gamble. I lost a lot of small money that period; I couldn't even win one, so I decided to stop. Success stories can make one gamble and hope for a pay day. I agree with you.

[Frankolala]

I was affected by jackpot stories in my early days of gambling and I also wanted to win big so I keep on playing which finally got me addicted to gamble. It was later that I realized that win big might be impossible as I keep on losing anf after a hard lesson, I stopped gambling.

I started gambling again after a while, when I have understood how one should gble responsible. If I see those big wins now they only tell me that someday of I am lucky, I will also win big. However, some of these big win stories are what made some people that are gamblers now to gamble because they felt that it is easy to win big or that it is very possible for them to win big.

Everyone is hoping for a jackpot but we never know when it will come do we need to buy more in the lottery game? Every now and then read the news outside they hit the jackpot of the lottery which is a huge amount.

I've never hit a big jackpot so there's no difference to gambling.
But usually after they win the jackpot will not stop playing gambling it will continue to play until they win again.

Have you ever increased the amount you normally used in betting just because someone you know won big by betting with a greater amount?

Ever... increase the bet in large amounts but still the results are different from what is wanted the same as friends, maybe he is lucky while I am not.

Any winning stories that I've seen/watched/read will not affect my gambling habit, I know my own limit and I know that I should stay with it.
I do like to watch big win videos in youtube or other social media but I take it as entertainment only.
Of course I do not wanna be a hypocrite, sometime I dream to win such huge amount of money but luckily it does not change me as I realize my own ability and I know that I should not try to win such huge amount because I'm a small gambler only.

These stories about big wins can serve as a motivation to keep gambling because you believe that it will be your turn one day. I have not just read about these stories but have seen how gambling turned the lives of many people. But these wins are rare so there is no need to allow these stories to affect your gambling activities.

Gambling wins basically come through skills or luck. I have been tempted to increase my bets when someone gives me some games and assures me that they will play. But it turned out to be a fake game and since then I have always stuck to my gambling budget. These stories will never motivate me to increase my bet because I know that gambling is unpredictable.

We only learn from what others have passed through, those experience were meant to motivate us and not to depress us and make us feels like we have no hope, or we have been missing out from many opportunities with gambling, instead, we should have focus on it that our own time will also come, and we are going to make use of such wisely.

We should never feel being intimidated, anything can happen when we gamble, those that have won in the past, many of them could not recall on the successful achievement they have realized from big win they once made, we can set our own priority right and see it as an advantage on us to use others lesson to avoid making mistakes when our own time comes.

I am not affected at all because I knew that there would be winners who would win big jackpots because that's the fact about gambling if you are affected, then there's an element of greed and envy about how you gamble, I already know long before I gamble that people can win huge amount of money this is the reason why you gamble because of the possibility of winning a jackpot if you are affected with this stories you will get astray and you will bet more than what you can afford to bet, so its better to stay within your limit as there will always be jackpot winners who knows tomorrow is your turn.

Well, to be sincere, yes, but only for a few times though, you will agree with me that we sometimes get stronger with experience.
For the first time I heard about someone I know winning a jackpot worth hundreds of millions in my local currency, I was overwhelmed and wished it was me, and this drove me to signing up on that same casinos and almost playing my life away hoping to encounter the same type of winning, or even half or quarter of what that dude won, but unfortunately, it didn't happen, all I kept winning was between $0.5 to $5, even when I played the same slot game the dude played and won the jackpot, I still did not win, over time, I gave up and never returned to that casino to try again after having lost all my deposits.

Another experience was when a user on this forum shared his experience on Bitcasino, how he got a Bitcasino nft with a $5000 bonus for free, he played slot game with the $5000 bonus and won, and withdraw about $100,000 from Bitcasino after completing the wager requirements,  I was moved to register on Bitcasino with hope of getting same bonus as well,  , but this desire or hope quickly died after few days after registration and there was no bonus lol 😂.

I am still engaged in gambling today because of the large victories that other individuals have managed to win. We all take risks when we gamble, each hoping that one day luck will come on us as it has on others.

Witnessing someone else's colossal victory can serve as a strong incentive for our own gambling continuation. The yearning for victorious euphoria and dreams of substantial earnings act as powerful lures, despite the stark reality that most gamblers are unlikely to realize similar windfalls. Casinos and gambling platforms work in favor of their owners rather than the players; hence, the odds are perpetually stacked against those who partake in play. They create an environment whereby there is always more chance to lose than win.

So it is quite important for us to always maintain a balanced and responsible perspective when gambling is very important. Keep in mind that, though there exist tales of great victories, there are also numerous tales of losses. The most important point is to ensure that gambling does not adversely affect your financial situation and your emotional state.

Stories about jackpots are mostly stories about lotteries, but since I know that the lottery is a pure scam, I don’t pay attention to them. As for my gambling strategy, even without the examples of other gamblers, I realize that my goal is “to win a lot” and I am trying to achieve it. Naturally, I have to take risks, but it is impossible to get a large multiplier in any other way. The most difficult thing is when the moment comes when the amount won is already large and you have to either continue playing or give up your dream and withdraw the money.

At one point, seeing someone get a big win encouraged me to play aggressively. That said, I wouldn't do it again because if your luck isn't great, it can quickly ruin the fun and your session. Instead of going after that big win, i'd better play like usual, stick to the rules i've set, and be satisfied with the wins i'll get along the way. Winning usually makes gambling fun, but there's no need to go overboard and do the same when it can easily go the other way.
