Will you put money together with friends to bet on sports games?

[ethereumhunter]

Pooling money with your buddies for bets is a classic move. There's a chance of getting something out of it. The risk should be spread out, yes. In case the bet loses, you won't lose your shirt. Money is strange, though. Yes, even best friends get crazy when they think about it. You're betting on more than just the game when you put your money into the pot

It's dope to win together. You feel high together, which brings you closer. However, losing? Some relationships can really suffer because of that. People you're friends with are being put to the test. Can you all make jokes about it, or are you going to start pointing fingers? The mix of excitement and fear that comes from not knowing whether we'll gain or lose is built into us. Right? It's crazy. This is only a game, but we're really into it. Have fun, and remember that the time you spend together is what matters most, not the money

We will feels the outcomes together with our friends so that can bring a strong relationship to them. We share what we gets from betting so that will makes all of us be careful when we want to bet with them and they will analyze more carefully to prevents the lose. Although the lose can still happens in the next match but all of us will always reminds each other to be careful especially for those who analyze the match for our bet.

Win or lose will be no problem because we share all things to them and that is the fun to bet with our friends. We don't have intention to win or lose and just want to spends our time with our friends and that will be another story for us when we are getting old. The mix of excitement will be there and we will laugh and sad together with them and enjoy the situation and condition together.

Money can be bet together with friends if the friends are on good terms with each other.
But if there is no good understanding between friends, i.e. if one friend blames another friend after losing, then betting together should never be done.
As per my suggestion it is totally inappropriate to bet together with friends because in this case every friend will not have the same attitude and in this case the good relationship between friends will be more likely to be destroyed.

Right, so it's a good idea to think or make an agreement from the start before combining our money with our friend's money to bet, make sure that the bet does not cause problems in your friendship, and also make sure that your friend knows and understands that losing is part of the game.

As you said, let's not blame each other when everything is over, especially when the result of the bet is a loss. I'm sure that in the course of the game there will definitely be a little argument, or I mean you will defend yourself and your friend will also defend himself, especially when before placing the bet there are different choices between the two of you.

But in the end, yes, it shouldn't happen for a long time, or I mean as I said, make sure we have made an agreement from the start, and also make sure you know about the fact that money can destroy friendships.

Usually i do really skip out with this kind of betting on which the funds are being pooled into single bet and handled by someone? Not unless if the said person is something that you could be able to see him/her personally or you do know its address then it would really be bringing out that kind of security or confidence at least but if its someone whom you dont know online then you wont really be comfortable on how
things should really be done and this is something that other people would really be feeling upon and even myself wont really not liking even if we do speak about being a friend. If you do really love or want to have
that kind of fun with other people then it would really be that up to you but we do know that when it comes into this kind of set up then there would really be those instances where funds are really that being ran off or those winnings on which this could cause up that relationship has been broken.

Hi hommies..

So, just this morning, a close friend of mine approached me while we were in a small meeting with the power holding company that supplies electricity in my street( or rather, small community).

Knowing I usually bet on sports from time to time, he began discussing about sports events with me mostly centered on the current Euro 2024, discussion was interesting as i always enjoy discussions around football and all the arguments that goes with it 😁.

Along the line, he asked if I will be willing to join a group betting, I asked what group betting was, he told me it's just a group of guys like myself, coming together to join an agreed amount together to bet on chosen sports games, and if the bet wins, we take out the money with the profit and share it equally amongst ourselves.

It was an interesting idea to be honest, but I really was wondering if it was the right thing to do, remembering one incident that happened last year where two friends put money together in a bet, bet won, amount was really huge, the other stole the ticket ran away and cashed the entire money from a very far place, leaving the other guy with nothing.

What do you guys think, is this concept or idea a good one? Will you accept such request?

Never ever mix money amd friends and family.  This is the easiest way to lose friends or at a minimum create a small divide between the two of you.  Inevitably ypu will lose games amd no matter what people say when ypu mess with another person's money it gets personal.  Politely decline and tell them that while ypu can discuss things that ypu are betting on ypu don't want to give advise because ypu lose just as much as you win.  Admitting defeat is the easiest way to put that conversation to bed.

In my circle of friends, this is absolutely normal. My friend has a specific job and he only has a phone with a connection but no Internet, and sometimes he can call and ask to place a bet for him and then one of my friends bets and upon arrival he gives money for the bet and part of the winnings. There was never a time when he didn’t give the money, because a person values ​​​​friendship.

[DiMarxist]

I think people have done that when I have also seen but I have not done that with any of my gambling friends. If they are playing sure bet and the amount that is in one person is not enough to play the game to win big amount and they like to win big then they can make joint bet and win big.
And simple answer to the subject is yes. If we are sure that we will win big amount and the amount to play the odd is not enough from one person pocket then combine betting is good to practice in that situation.

Right, so it's a good idea to think or make an agreement from the start before combining our money with our friend's money to bet, make sure that the bet does not cause problems in your friendship, and also make sure that your friend knows and understands that losing is part of the game.

But in this case even though there is an agreement in the end, still when we win or lose, there will be a friction that ultimately disrupts each other's trust so it will be more worth it if we only bet individually so as not to create conflict with the friends you have.

There will always be problems both when winning and losing when we collect capital and make it a gamble in gambling so in order to minimize this it would be wiser if we gamble individually with our own capital. In fact, we will believe in ourselves more when betting and doing it by others even though it is our own friend, the result will still be something that is awkward and difficult to express when the gambling ends in defeat.

that is something that could happen because considering that everyone is certainly sensitive to what is called money or profit so there must be a desire to get more from other people, but this does not happen to everyone because of course everyone is different so it cannot be ascertained that everyone who gambles by combining their personal money with their friends' money will definitely experience friction or conflict. in my opinion there are people who gamble by combining their money with their friends and can share the winnings equally that have been obtained. I myself am more comfortable gambling using my own money and in my opinion gambling using my own money is because there is a risk in this case and the risk in this case is also a clear certainty so we must be able to accept it well, some cases occur there are also those who gamble using their own money but cannot accept the risk and that actually causes them problems this is not true.

If it doesn't go beyond ego in the sense that someone bets and commiserates with their mates and splits the results regardless of losing and winning equally then maybe it can be done but then again it won't guarantee that there will be friction or envy when it is done.

I personally choose the option of not doing that because for me this indicates that the friendship situation will become divided especially when it deals with finances so I would rather avoid this. But that does not mean that this should not be done because it can still be done by anyone as long as there is great trust and we must have a big soul to accept all forms of things that happen later. Because in fact something like this must have been done by several people and I am quite sure of that even though I personally avoid this.

I am just coming acrosss this thread, and i find your question interesting, so i'd give my own two cents.

I don't like the idea of a "group bet", it can cause problems. That being said, if i must do it, it has to be with family or friends that are as close as family, that way i am almost certain that problems wouldn't arise and if problems should ever arise, i'd not blame myself too much, because of the people involved in the whole thing.

I'm not sure why someone would need to do this kind of gambling strategy - but I'm sure some gamblers have tried it. It's not usually done by experienced gamblers, who tend to gamble independently - but it is very possible for novice gamblers who just gamble for fun.

It is better to gamble independently with your own money rather than gambling together. This allows gamblers to avoid problems that may arise due to misunderstandings. Believe it or not - gambling together on one account with such an approach will disrupt the relationship between friends, even if not in the near future, then problems may arise over time.

Well, a friend and family that understands how money works will pay back the money that was lend to them but the smart looking like scammers wouldn't pay back and when you complain about the money lend to them, they have you altitude and become emotional and family pity card game which is very bad, that's emotional blackmail because of your own money that you lend to them, this is why you should not give up your money to them.

However, there are some people that are friends that you don't have choice that you must give them the money and they worth it, they always find a way to pay back the money because they know how they struggle to make that amount of money.

it is true that no one does not know what will happen later, even though they have an agreement at the beginning that does agree to share their winnings fairly and evenly, but that does not guarantee that they will not experience conflict considering that everyone is sensitive to money so there is still a possibility that they can experience conflict with one of them having thoughts or feelings of greed that suddenly appear when they have succeeded in winning.
It is true that gambling using your own money is more comfortable because we are the only ones who will bear everything, whether we win or lose, but what is wrong is when we lose and get emotional and then take it out on other people. This is also something that must be prevented from happening because it is unethical when we lose and take it out on other people.

[betswift]

Why not if it's for fun and we are comfortable with money we can afford to lose. Our groups do this: we pick the team based on the number of votes and agree on the share of bets and profits; it is fun to do, it strengthens the camaraderie within the group; the most important in group betting is mutual trust, and that you all have fun.

When friends agree to do something together, it should be fun and something that strengthens the bonds between the friends; I became very familiar with my friends because of this group betting.

I agree. If it's fun for everybody involved - why not? And if there no brawls afterward due to the bets put

What problems could "group bet" cause? Everyone makes his own decision to place a bet or not. Or your idea was that if a bet looses, one of the bettors will blame the other because he believed in his prediction or decision? It is a matter of trust then. Again it will be silly to blame someone for a loss. Personally I dont like the idea of a "group bet" because I see no benefit from that. The size of a bet does not impact on odds or win chance. Everyone still will receive same amount if everyone would have made an individual bet.

It must have happened before, maybe even in the neighbourhood where we live now there are things like this happening even though most of them are done on online sites.

That is the point where it would be better if we gamble independently with our own money because in the end when we do that, all forms of possibilities that occur regardless of whether it is a defeat or a victory, we will definitely bear the risk ourselves and will not blame others because we lost ourselves who made this into consideration.
Collective gambling although it can be done but the risk in terms of disputes between friends is still very large. If you feel that it is okay for some people, then it will definitely be done, but for me it would be very silly if we disagree and blame each other just because of gambling, especially if it is done with our own friends or closest people.

On the moment if someone would really be getting a hold of an amount that they havent been able to expericence for the rest of your life then high chances or tendency that you would really be running with those funds. Just like on what some people been saying on here that never ever trust up someone when it comes to money because it is really that something that will really be giving out that possible urge for someone to commit such bullshit action just because of money. Speaking about in between friends then it wouldnt really be that consider to be all something like this or for it to happen precisely. It is really just that there would really be those possible instances that could happen and we've seen this one on where there would really be those winnings that been ran off into of someone specially if the amount would be significant.

Relationships would really be that turning out to be broken on the time or moment that money greed would be kicking in.Also, why would really be trying out to make those pooled funds on making betting if you could
really that actually be able to make yourself bet on your own. There's no added fun when you do make out bets in together with other people on which you could be actually be able to enjoy and feel up the
thrill on the time that you are the ones who would really be doing such stuff.

[$weetne$$]

In my circle of friends, this is absolutely normal. My friend has a specific job and he only has a phone with a connection but no Internet, and sometimes he can call and ask to place a bet for him and then one of my friends bets and upon arrival he gives money for the bet and part of the winnings. There was never a time when he didn’t give the money, because a person values ​​​​friendship.

What happens when he loses the bet because he can not win all the time as anybody that has gambled knows that you can win or lose anytime that you play. There is no guarantee in gambling and it can cause problems between friends. When I win, I will share the profits with you but when I lose, I will be the only one to take all the losses. If this continues, the next time that I win, I might decide that I do not want to share the wins with my friend that help me to place the bet but just tell him thank you and that friend will be offended and might decide to not help me the next time that I need help or he might do something different from what I asked him to do. I think placing our own bets on our own is better than using friends to avoid them getting jealous when we win and do not give them enough share of the win

[JunaidAzizi]

Hahaha, you already know the outcome of this act, and still, you want our suggestions. I think that the case you mentioned will be a good lesson for you, but yeah, you are looking for fun over your money and relationships.

There is no doubt that gambling together will provide you with more fun than usual, but this will increase the risk of money being stolen or ruining your relationship with your friend. Mostly in this situation, a greedy nature starts to arise when your friend sees profits again and again, and the chances of your money being stolen will increase significantly. In fact, I recommend that you gamble at your own risk, and you will be responsible for your own profits or losses. There is also no chance of your friend being responsible for your losses or wins.

These happens almost in all circle of friends. There are people that would not download casino app on their phones but would prefer friends to help them bet on sport bets and other games too. Maybe the reason could be to prevent them from gambling too frequently especially if it is someone that has experienced gambling addiction before and they are trying to prevent the reoccurrence so that it will not affect them again. There are many ways we could help ourselves not to have growing urge in gambling. Their are d bets I do ask people to play for me especially when I don't have yhe opportunity to play the game or I'm not just interested playing bets at that particular time.
