How much are you willing to gamble

[traderethereum]

It seems that many are taking advantage of the momentum of this election to gain an advantage, those who already know that Trump has a greater chance of winning do not hesitate to bet everything they have so that they can be replaced many times over if they win, this is indeed very risky, only people who dare to speculate are sure to win their bets. I also can't understand people who bet on large amounts, are they not afraid that their money will be frozen on the platform because currently there are many cases where someone wins a large bet but their money cannot be withdrawn.

That is not surprise because those people wants to place their bet and hopes they can wins much money. They can do that but they must not break their limits just to hopes to wins big.
The risk of losing the money by placing with a high bet will be there so they must consider to use the money they can afford to lose. If they can thinks clear about that, they will see that gambling will not always gives them the winning.
Playing gambling needs to be careful so we must allocate some money that we can so we don't break our limitation. If we can manage our funds properly, we will not face a big lose.

I have seen various topics discussed in here about their bankrolls or budget and whatnot when gambling. Well a French national just wagered $30 million to a bet about the US election. Now the online platform is being reviewed by France and is being checked if they follow laws accordingly. I am sure that amount shocked them especially after the gambler admitted that it was not even to sponsor Trump and that he did not have any political agenda with that bet. He did win and made profit but I was just so surprised with how can anyone bet this huge amount of money?

No matter how rich I get, I do not think I would be risking throwing away $30 million. I am also sure that the French authorities are making moves after this ridiculous amount of money betted to prevent encouraging their citizens from following in the gambler's footsteps. But I think instead of punishing the platform, the government should focus on how can they 'control' their citizens' gambling habits. Focusing on one platform will not eradicate people who would continue to bet this huge amount of money.

Even though it is reasonable enough for any government authority to protect the best interest of their citizens as regards to upholding a good and responsible gambling, most times the amount of money that might be huge to you might not really be huge to the next person, what should be considered is the gambler total net worth and the amount being used for gambling because there is possibility that the amount he used is not huge to him based on his total net worth. However, I am personally 100 percent in support of responsible gambling awareness or campaign as to this regards because what works for me A may not really work for me B the reason why it always advisable to only gamble with an amount that one can afford to lose.

Yeah, it's possible that some games could secretly be rigged to favour the casino or some certain players but in the case of the election, Trump merited his victory because he had more voters and it's just a thing of happiness for those that bet on his victory and deeply believed that he was going to win.

Unlike a casino game where the casino has got some level of control over the games at some point which also includes their outcome, the elections were more of a fair one to be and the outcome was and cannot be influenced in any way by the casinos so what ever results gotten is mainly from that of the electoral results, you only got lucky you were able to win if the candidates for which you did placed a bet on actually did won but otherwise you weren't and can't blame the casino either.

Yea, it was a fair election that was not manipulated in any way bookie. Who ever staked some money on Trump to win that election risked what they probably can afford to lose and at the end of the day, their risk was worth it. I felt tempted to bet on that election but I didn't and if I had did, it would be on Trump to win.

Betting such a huge amount of money is not an ordinary task. And whoever can bet this huge amount of money must have huge reserves of money otherwise no one would want to take such a big risk. But I don't take much interest in anything else because I have to go with what I have. I would recommend keeping an amount of money in betting so that if the money is lost I can bet again. If one conducts gambling too greedily he can lose all his money very quickly.

A government would certainly not want something to happen in his country that would cause a major disaster. Of course, no government would want to look positively at betting 30 million, which would create chaos in its country. It is necessary to conduct responsible gambling and create awareness that gambling should not be considered as a source of income.

[Smartprofit]

I really don't like situations when governments of states consider their citizens as little children who need constant control.

People are not children, if a person has 30,000,000 US dollars to bet on Donald Trump's victory, then this player is probably an adult and independent person who knows what he is doing. If a person received a large sum of money into his own, then he has the right to spend it as he wants.

The US presidential elections were fair and public. Or does the US government think that an online gaming platform bribed Kamala Harris so that she would lose the US presidential elections? In this situation, the French government looks ridiculous (because it interferes in the personal affairs of its citizen).

At the same time, France has a reputation as a free and democratic country that respects the rights of its citizens.

Focusing on one platform may not eradicate the people from gambling but it’ll help serve as a caution and a control note for those that gamble too much and wager very big amount of money into gambling. The fact still remains that if the gambler risks the amount they’re able to lose into gambling, it’s still okay as they are not as addictive to the gambling that they’ll do more than their means when gambling.

The French authorities may take legal action on the casino and may not hold the gambler accountable for it. They can’t stop a gambler from gambling but can limit the way the casinos allow people to wager such big amount into gambling. They could have also taken the legal action because of the reason for the gambling taken, which is for political purposes.

There are lots of gamblers out there who would risk their last dime to gamble with the hope of doubling it or hitting the jackpot. Irrespective of how wealthy some gamblers are, with a mindset of addiction, they’ll definitely run bankrupt. There are several cases of people spending huge amount of money on gamble irrespective of their financial capabilities, they eventually risk too much and all comes into regret at the end. Because no matter the strategy a gambler employs the house will alway be the winner in the long run. I think gambling with 10% of your reserved fund  is quite ok, after which all important expenses has been dealt with.

I think there are some games that the casino themselves absolutely have no effect on in terms of manipulation although they can still decide to flaunt you on the wrong side by making one person odd very bigger and the other less but even that too would be off great advantage to gamblers because they actually didn't have any idea of who's winning so making such odd manipulation might favor a whole lot of gamblers that would have faith and place that odd as it will favor them. Although we also can't deny the fact that gamblers are much attracted to lesser odd than huge odds.

I think the government is right when they don't allow people to gamble with the election of democracy, otherwise why will any sane person gamble with a whooping of $30m, that can either be someone who is from. Trump camp to make it as a away to get more votes or money laundering. Most likely, it's money laundering else I'm sure that the person can bet less amount of money because of fear of losing it but betting that big amount is making it go completely to get a fresh clean money.

Come to think of think, not like someone isn't expose or doing anything, why will you use $30m to gamble at once when it's not like you are been obsessed with Trump or US election, even Trump as candidates that has casino business will not dare try to bet with $30m because he knows the risk involved that he can lose everything at once. If the France government do their investigation, they will definitely find some cockroaches in the guy closet.

It is impossible to say with 100% certainty that this person knew the results of the election and that is why he made such a large bet.

Yes, that's also true, but this time odds were mostly in favor of Donald Trump and that's why it wasn't much hard to see him as president once again. The assassination attack on Trump also made his supporters beliefs stronger that he's the right person the be the president of America. However, it's true that there's nothing with 100% certainty and the one who placed the bet became lucky.

Elections involve the government and usually depend on the number of voters so casinos can't rig the results no matter what happens, so if you win you will be lucky otherwise if you lose you have to be ready to lose your money, at this moment many are betting their money to get profit and based on any chance Trump is superior to Harris so I think many people are betting on Trump to win and maybe many are lucky, but if the result is won by Harris I think it is worth suspecting

The election race was so amazing and equal that until the very last day it was not known who would become the next president.

I live in another country, but I would not mind placing a $ 1 bet for fun. It is a pity that I did not have time to do this. I know many people who bet large sums of money on candidates. Some of them were able to make a lot of money on this. I would like to congratulate them on their victory.

I`m interesting if they would care about this situation if he would lost these money?
It is his money and he can decide himself how to spend it. I don`t think that France has limits how much someone can spend and if his money are clean and the bet was maid officially he mustn`t has any problems.
And one interesting question: why someone begin cares about it after such situations?

I didn't look at the odds of the bet but I remember I checked it once on stake casino but I can't remember the odds but from what I see, many people actually bet that Trump was going to win and indeed they won their bet. Seems some non gamblers had to just place their bet on Trump because they believe he would win.

I think that these are quite reasonable percentages for gambling. Because 10 is definitely too much to lose. But 2 percent is too little, with such a deposit no gambler will be happy with their winning multipliers, because it is really little. Therefore, the value of 3-5 percent is good. As for Trump - among my friends, initially no one believed in Kamala, she was always objectively weak and clearly did not deserve the presidential chair. Especially after the scandal with the prompter and not knowing what to say at all.

Yes, it's that each person has their budget willing to risk, so in view of these things, it is very good to say them, I would like to risk a lot of money, but I do not have that capacity, personally I could say that I did learn that my budget to save, to trade is one that will not affect me for my basic things, that is, I can spend it and my basic things will be covered, this includes payment of services, what my children ask for, everything, once all that is covered, then I can allocate something.

Regarding the Trump and Kamala bet, I had the conviction for more than a year that Trump would win, I don't know, it was too obvious that the Americans were in a very bad economic situation.

Everyone has different levels of needs to meet their living needs, so this allows them to have a budget that is ready to lose is also different. This also depends on the total income of each person, which will also greatly affect the amount of money they can spend on gambling. Well, I myself usually allocate a not too large amount for gambling, and I can even still set aside money that is ready to lose after gambling. This also depends on our self-control, because someone who cannot control themselves will definitely allocate more of their money to gamble because they cannot resist the urge to play.

[LUCKMCFLY]

And gambling with $10-$15 is too much money for me.
So we should never do anything that can harm our financial stability or quality of life.

There is no doubt about that, even the rich themselves should take care of their money, because a big bet of 500-1000usd or even more is very easy to lose, so of course they start from the fact that if they manage to win with those amounts they will make a great amount, but it is a lot of risk, the truth is it is too much for me too, however when I am going to play I consider that things should be done with a better degree of integrity of the money, if one has a lot of money I think I would bet 20usd and that's it , Because for me it represents good money , many things can be done with 20usd.

But I think it not luck but certainty that they dare to take the risk of betting by making Trump the favorite, he is superior to all and no one can surpass him unless his opponent is not Harris but Biden maybe something different will happen even though Trump can still win when Biden is his opponent.
Besides everything has been clear from the start, it no surprise when some rich people spend huge amounts of money on betting.

For the rich to understand the value of money, they need to be aware of their financial needs, which will make them more careful about their valuation. Rich people should be more careful about spending money to gambling even at the time of spending. While rich people may be less careful about their money when it comes to gambling comparatively small gamblers are seen to be greatly affected in terms of their earnings and losses. It is true that gamblers prepare to spread their entertainment within their means and they set their allocations in a limited manner.

You are right that I should tend to bet according to my target and should not tend to go beyond my means compared to the rich. I am not ready to go beyond my means and indulge myself in betting because I know my means and my desire to get allocation and entertainment accordingly.
