Your First Big Win Might Be Your Biggest Trap.

[Samlucky O]

Gambling works in a same way. If your first experience is a big win it can pull you deeper. If it was a bad loss maybe you would have stopped early.

Yeah surely everyone fall victim of this, our level of Gambling is always determined by our first or second expirience. And I don't know why the first time or second time of betting always come with luck, and this luck activate is to continue gambling, seeing it as a way of making quick money but not knowing that the first win was a trap. When I started gambling I won big and it made me think I could win more till I realized it was not what I thought.

So moral of the story . First win is not always a blessing. Sometimes it is the starting point of a long chase.

Yes, you are actually not far from the truth, that's how gamble works except a Gambler that didn't even see a single win in the first 10 straight stake or be that will give up easily from the start.

What u think . Do you believe early wins help people  or do they quietly trap them?

Early win trap people and not help. The only help that could be possible is if the gambler won a hug amount at first bet and quit, that's when you will say that early win helps.

When I first started gambling, I don’t remember whether I won or lost but clearly my first gambling experience didn’t result in a big win. However, I did achieve that big win after I’d been gambling for quite some time, and even though it came from one of my many gambling sessions, it still served as an incentive for me to keep gambling until I found myself in a dire situation.
But I agree that an early win can be a trap, especially if the amount is large very few people can stop immediately once they’ve managed to win.

No doubt if the first win can tempting us continuing to gamble. The temptation to win more will be big and if we can't tell stop right that, we only keep gambling without caring ourselves.

First win still a blessing depend on how you can act to that. If you realize the first win especially big win can changing your life, you must stopping gambling and leaving the temptation.

But most people trap in their first win and thinks they can win the next bet. Well, no guarantee for that so they should understand that stop gambling will be better.

No need to chase the more wins as you have other time to gamble.

Hello Reader. I hope u doing well.

I want to share something in my mind and i think many people will relate to it. So many peoples think losing is what traps gamblers. But i think sometimes it is the opposite.

It is the first big win.

Let me Explain . When someone wins big early it creates a strong belief in their mind. They start thinking i can do this again because it feels easy and  real. That moment stays with them. And after that every time they play they are not just playing the game  they are chasing that first feeling again and again . Even when they lose they does not see it as a warning. They see it as I just need one more good run.

This reminds me of something similar.

When someone tries Weed for the first time the experience can go both ways i mean 50 50 chances of smoking again . Because some peoples feel relaxed and happy and they keep going back to it. While others feel fear or discomfort sometimes increased blood pressure and heart rate maybe even anxiety and they never touch it again.

That first experience shapes everything.

I don't think it's a trap because those in charge of casino or other sports betting sites won't know the person playing is his first time of gambling and if the person wins then it's a coincidence that he was lucky to have won on his first bet so it's not a trap to lure the person to keep betting. On a normal state when a gambler wins it's spores the person to bet more because he believes he is going to win so it's normal to be excited over a win.

Everyone experiences this and chasing the first win has led many in getting addicted because they will say to themselves that they won on the first bets and that chances of winning should be there and that's how they keep chasing looses and at the longrun end up with regrets, self control in gambling is very paramount and every gambler should not neglect it because it keeps your gambling habits moderate once you have that self control and stop chasing looses hoping to recoup lost funds.

No need to chase the more wins as you have other time to gamble.

There are moments that when a gambler wins one time, they want more.

And for the first big wins, that's memorable and thus it gives the thought that they're special and luck is with them.

So instead of being contented and stopping, they're chasing wins. And these both chasing of losses and wins are not going to do us good.

[TheUltraElite]

Either a win or loss, the effect is the same. The person will wish to get that same high again. This is common in gambling and is always going to be present if the person cannot control their habit in a proper manner.

There are people who can stop after a win but this is quite rare as most people are looking for constant wins and no losses. This can never happen in the long term and hence they will get addicted trying to prove others wrong.

But I agree that an early win can be a trap, especially if the amount is large very few people can stop immediately once they’ve managed to win.

Of course, gambling starts to get into one's mind when they receive their first profit in gambling, especially if its their first time to gamble and their first time they got their first win, which will make them to believe that they have luck in this game of a thing, which will make them to forget the fact that gambling is a game of entertainment and gives them the reason to treat it as side hustle or a game that they can get rich through it, which they don't know that they are just falling into pitfalls of becoming addicted, which they are endangering their lives for the worst. That's why gamblers are not to neglect the act of being aware of gambling.

[Shineup]

Very possible that one's first win could be a possible trap to us if we are not careful, not because it was intended on us directly by the casino, but when we fail to realize what is involved in gambling and understand the risk as well we should prevent, having a first wind could be enticing and such food encourage us to go for more higher risk, but should we be persuaded by all this and take the wrong direction thinking that it will go on the same way we had before, as such could be the reason why some loses and continue to chases after their loss in other to recover.

It is not going to be easy overcoming this especially when the winning happens to be very huge all the excitement can affect our sence of reasoning such that even when you are being advised you will pay no attention because you feel you are best and have arrived, let's be honest at that point gambling becomes your top most priority and in everything you do, first big win is a big trap which one will only get to realize after a long experience and for a new gamblers they will never get to understand this because they are new in the system and will mostly be the ones to be trapped compared to an old gambler.

It doesn't even have to be a big win, because even a win streak or one profitable run is enough to be the bait to reel gamblers in. I've experienced that kind of trap before, and things can get devastating if you don't know when to draw the line.

It reminds me of the thread that mentioned how certain winning situations can do more harm compared to losses, and the same can be seen with teams in sports.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Bayern Munich could win this match, but they don’t really need to. They haven’t officially been named champions yet, but considering the 12 point gap between them and Dortmund and the five games remaining, it seems virtually impossible for them not to win the title. So losing a match wouldn’t hurt them much, perhaps they could rest key players ahead of a Champions League match. I wouldn’t bet on Bayern Munich against Stuttgart.

Yes, I know that the gap is what allows us to almost predict that they have the Bundesliga title completely for themselves, however they must fulfill their remaining commitments, but it is a fact that they will emerge as champions, something really bad has to happen for things to turn around, I don't believe it, Dortmund is very good, but they let themselves get too many points ahead, if you want to win you can't give up so many points.

[Nahl]

I have to says this is one of the biggest issues for majority gamblers that when they had first experience won with big amount automatically their mainset for gambling will be change that big win is really like addicted because when you got that in the next games or everytime you were starting to gambling again the feeling want to big win will always be stayed with you

Indeed this is very danger because many gamblers have trapped to this condition and eventually the gamblers will losing more money than they have been won before and like i said above this is about the mainset and the mentality that if the gamblers known their own limit and considers big won from gambling is not more than just luck i think we can avoiding the things we don't want it and never want to chasing big won again

[Noorooo]

There are two types of gambling. One type involves skill such as poker and other card games while the other type depends mostly on luck. If you are against gambling that is purely based on luck then I agree with you because it can be unpredictable and risky. However if you are also against skill based gambling then I think that is not completely fair. In skill based games a player can improve over time, make better decisions, and can win again and again. This means that success is not only about luck but also about experience, strategy, and control.

[KiaKia]

This is why I keep telling my friends that you don't have to lose money to gambling before you start chasing your loss, if you win you can also start chasing more money, it gets into your head and you will think it's never going to stop.

If people can relax and try to decipher what gambling truly is they will see that dangers lies in every corner, either you are winning or you are losing, it doesn't matter, gambling can still get the best of you.

There is nothing like risking only what you can afford to lose, as this is the best strategy that I know to work and protect you against any problems that do arise with people that gambles.

It is not really easy for a gambler to stop betting after a big win. It is very easy for a gambler that have been losing money for days or weeks to stop gambling than someone that just got a jackpot because they might be thinking of having the same luck again that will make them earn big from betting. You will want to strive to makw the same good experience you once had when gambling.

That you can win is an opportunity for you to take advantage of and not to insist or repeated attempt to continue winning, except you are targeting to have fun and not with the intention of winning the more, if we cannot forget the actual fact about gambling that we may lose more than we can win, then we will take every privilege we have as an opportunity and not a mandate that we must chase after losses or ensure having a continuous winning in Gambling.

what do you mean by except you are targeting to have fun, do you enjoy losing money? Because I haven't seen any fun in losing money in gambling, the best option after first wining is to withdraw your money and enjoy yourself, don't let the winning get into your head, if you keep your winning in the your wallet the possibility of losing all again is high.

Whe you guys keep saying people gamble for fun it's not a good message for the youth, they might think gambling is for fun, such message has negative effect on the young gamblers. We have to stop, there's not fun in gambling and such message should top.

You analysis is quite illustrating and to some extent it is correct what you say because most of the times people think that when you lost you keep playing because you eventually will win one time but truth be told it's nothing compared to the joy of winning especially a big win, it gives you that hope that you can actually keep winning especially when you have confidence in your prediction strategies and skills.
That's why some of the times you see someone place a bet and win bin and end up loosing all the funds gambling back again because when you win big if you don't control yourself greed comes in and you will want to make more money re gambling your wins.
So I agree with your points on this your big win can actually be the trap and that gets you stocked.

[Royal Cap]

Definitely, that is what it does because it makes you feels that you can keep on winning bigger forgetting that it is only by luck that you will win which does not happen often,  the trap most times leads to one chasing his wins and ends up become an addict, it also gives you that impression that winning is always easier.

Another thing that works here is the feeling that this time we have come a little closer. People think that if they try a little more they will succeed to get big win, so they don't want to stop. This just a little more thought is what keeps them going, In reality when someone comes close a few times and loses they think I almost won, this time I will. But they keep playing like this. In fact it is the feeling of getting closer that keeps them going more than winning.

[Ever-young]

No need to chase the more wins as you have other time to gamble.

And for the first big wins, that's memorable and thus it gives the thought that they're special and luck is with them.

So instead of being contented and stopping, they're chasing wins. And these both chasing of losses and wins are not going to do us good.

Especially chasing after their losses, they don't want to agree that chasing after their losses makes them vulnerable to be trapped in gambling, which they can't give themselves break or quit from gambling, whether they are winning or not, because ignoring this part will make them to have the tendency of damaging their lives, which will also affect their financial aspects, either by making them to go broke or by making them to spend unnecessary.

That's right, the first big one is the trap set by the casinos which glues you to their systems and now you are their money printing machine because they have held a nerve in your brain and that of the the Dopamine one and they give you little little bursts after a few tries but they try to keep the net profit to their sides and not your side because they only care about themselves and not you. You have to care for yourself and take decisions that might compound In the upcoming times or u will not have a good future with gambling.
