Topic: A Lady Cried After Losing to Sports Bet. Gambling is Not Your Mate. - page 3. (Read 1874 times)

I disagree with that. What she did wasn't a mistake, it was a deliberate attempt to make money and she failed in that. How can you call something a mistake that you have done yourself while knowing all the possible consequences of it? A mistake is an action that is done unknowingly and/or without actually knowing the possible outcomes or consequences of it, but in this case, it's different, because she is an adult and she knows exactly what gambling is.

I bet she or anyone would say she did it by mistake if she had won a million dollars from gambling, why? If you lose your money, you've made a mistake, but if you make money, you did it through gambling, that's hypocrisy. She knew from the beginning that gambling has the quality to take all her money away but she still did it, so it's all on her and she should accept that, there is no other choice other than accepting the defeat and learning from the experience.

There are still many women out there who don't actually want to gamble, but because they are curious, they do it until they finally lose and realize that actually gambling is not for them, the woman in the OP is one example.

literally we are moving into an era that is increasingly balanced in terms of gender but women have more needs such as powder - clothes - jewelry than men so when women lose gambling they will cry uncontrollably.

I gamble quite often, but I don't burden my mind too much with the losses I probably get when playing, I understand the consequences.

And at the same time, we click this kind of headline on the news. Somehow I believe this is a clickbait of the casino since there was also news about this being a kid begging for his money to be returned to him as the money is his school fee. Same bookmaker too.

Nonetheless, if the woman and the boy are true then this sportsbook has really gotten into the household of this country where even the housewives are already betting instead of doing chores at home.

Stories like always cracks me up.
Well crying is better than those who committed suicide. After crying she's going to get a plate of ice cream after which she'll forget about her loss.
Real gamblers don't cry. We what that it is what it is. Anyone who doesn't gamble responsibly will face the consequences.

Probably she is the gambling addicted person,So she can’t control the number of the games to the gambling.When she posses continuous loss in the gambling,every gambler may get sad.Since she is the woman with the soft heart,he may melted and start to cry for their loss in the gambling.The gambler should managed their mind set at all situation.My words was same all the time,gambling was the game for the strong heart person.If you are not the strong mindset person,you can play the other games like cricket or football in the offline mode.The pro gambler can handle the loss and will have the plan B for the loss in the gambling.

It's not normal especially on gambling because people will just heckle and blame you but we know if you're active on social media you want to be popular and you want people to talk about you, you want to be viral so you can have a lot of followers, some people are making a living on social media especially on Tiktok if you have many followers, advertisers will ask you to promote their product and pay you if you're going to cry because of losing in gambling its better to keep it to yourself it's easy to heal than crying in social media.

Yes, it is normal for some people to cry when sad, but they are not sad because they have lost when gambling. It will only provoke reactions from other people, and they may be bullied by people who don't like it. People's reactions are different, but you shouldn't cry in public because you lost at gambling. He could cry in his room and lament his gambling losses so that no one would know that he had gambled and suffered a big loss. It was to avoid people's dislikes so that he could avoid bullying from others. But there could be a sense of satisfaction if they could publicly upload their sad moments so that people could express sympathy for the woman.

Isnt it normal for people to cry when they lose and that person just chose to post it on social media?  People react to things differently, and crying is a natural response to emotions, even for experienced gamblers.  Maybe that significant loss trigger her frustrations and she posted that video of her as a way to reach out for empathy or advice from others who have gone through similar situations. Who are we to say that she cant play again?? Maybe you chose to closet your emotions but that’s you.

That's what will happen when you're prepared to the outcome of your risk taking mate. Ladies have got weaker feeling on this one and their hearts are more fragile than us men.

We can take as much losses that we can while them, it seems that losing is a new thing to them. The mistake here is that she used the money that she needs for something else and it's likely an important matter.

She shouldn't have done that, she can't take back the money anymore and she's got the lesson not to gamble when she cannot deal with negative results.

It could be that she is a beginner in gambling and spent all her money on one bet and maybe that's the reason why she cried. If she really is a pro gambler she knows how to deal with it. Why the heck she uploaded a video crying on  what had happened to her on gambling?

Everything she does now is useless. Even if she cries for a few weeks the money has gone, and it will never come back. If she still plays more, she will still lose. However, the lady knows how much she stakes. I believe the money is too much, which is why she is crying, so with this, I won’t pity her because that is not how gambling works, and this shows that she doesn’t know how to gamble or that she relies on gambling. I remember one topic on this board where someone lost tickets and she fell sick for 3 days. Probably this lady also had a plan for the money she would win, which is why she was crying, or she took a loan to gamble. Because it’s happened, we see people take loans to gamble, but at the end of the day they lose the game and start panicking.


You are right, women are not the same as men when it comes to emotions, and things like this, men often lose in gambling many times before winning a single ticket, and they don’t bother. However, the way some men lose in gambling, if that is how women gamble and lose, then definitely you will not see only cry; some will even try to commit suicide because small things change their mood. Most women don’t have the mind to endure pressure like men; however, I wish her good luck in her gambling habit, and I hope she shouldn’t say she will chase her losses in gambling.

If that was true then why the woman here in our subject ended up crying due to a loss? Oh well, she was only one anyway and I can rarely saw threads like this in the forum. I still believe that it wasn't about the gender. Both women and men can have the same capacity when it comes to gambling if they will do the same measures.

Gambling isn't only about money management but taking risk can also be a good thing here as we can get lucky in our first or last rolls. And betting a huge amount is only the way to earn big profits most of the time. If we are into money management it means we can be playing for the profit and not really for fun.

Hopefully, her family can continue to support her and provide her with the comfort she needs so she doesn't despair again. And the most important thing is that she doesn't have to gamble anymore, even if it's just for fun, because she has had bad experiences. After all, she didn't control herself. She can't turned back the time and now, bit's better for her to focus on doing other things where she can earn more money.

We already know the risks of gambling addiction, especially since we have seen many people who have experienced it. We must be able to prevent ourselves from experiencing gambling addiction in various ways that we know so that we will not have the same experience as that woman.

It may be true that he has been on social media for a long time so there is a possibility that his family also knows what happened to him. But this is a valuable lesson for him and us so that no one will experience it again. And be careful if we want to upload videos so that we don't get judged or someone doesn't like us.

That means she has to learn self-control so she doesn't have an experience like that again. But the best thing is that she doesn't need to gamble anymore to avoid big losses because she can't control herself when he gambles. I don't know how long the woman will experience her sadness, especially since she may have lost a lot.

Well, you don’t have to wonder anymore as everyone is free to do whatever they want. You should get used to seeding more women in the gambling scene.
I don’t think all women are as helpless and emotionally fragile and they sure know the risks involved as men do. Everyone and not just women can get very dramatic after losing out on a bet. They’re way more men than women in the gambling scene today and if you do some little research, you’ll find cases where men have become so emotional about their losses that they go ahead to do some stupid stuff. As there are fewer women gambling, stories of them being dramatic would probably be noticed more often.

It depends on the individual and how he/she handles situations like these and nothing to do with gender. I know of women who are risk takers and who keep their emotions in check.

It is not really the point that what factors you are looking at happens to her alone. Even under boy has played and lost his school fees.

She is just a lady and this buttress that point saying women are weaker sex, guys consistently play without winning and they go to sleep to try another chance. Men take things that come to them any how it came even in the hard way. This probably a publicity stunt for sympathy that she is also gambling to try a chance of having some guys come to support her financially.

Before we jump into addiction, I'll want to agree strongly with your point on she been in serious trouble. People loose money from gambling daily and we don't hear about it neither do they flaunt it on social media except they're dragging a possible Telegram group owner for supplying them games that turned south. But in her case, I suspect she used funds meant for another thing to adventure into gambling and that hurts deeper cos she has to not just live with the loss but also work to replace the lost funds. I just hope its not tuition fees though.

People really need to think twice before they begin to gamble and it is cases like this one that make me think like that, after all this is a person that has the legal age and right to gamble, however it can be seen by her reaction and all the money that she lost that she has no business gambling at all, after all did she ever thought about the possibility of losing her money, and if not why is that? Anyone that takes the time to read a little bit about gambling knows that you are bound to lose a little bit more than what you earn, and yet she was completely unprepared for this.

But it seems that he has been in social media for a long time already as per her account? So for sure her families knows that she is up too and could probably be accepting the fact that she lost in gambling and then venting in public. Yeah, maybe some of them are embarrassed, but we all know that everything now is in social media to make money posting videos. So you will be the judged.


That is the very first mistake of this newbie (if she is indeed a newbie). Even us experienced gamblers already, we play with the money that we can afford to lose. But there are times that really are out of control and gamble more from our initial capital. And if we lose, the feeling is very bad that it can affect us mentally for a couple of days. So for sure this lady will feel that and that could be the reason why she is crying like that.

Well, it seems she's already made one mistake by losing in gambling, and now another by venting on social media. You can really see how desperate she is, and it's clear he's in some serious trouble as he's making decisions that aren't ethical anymore. The thing is, once those mistakes are made, there's no turning back the clock. At this point, it's the family's role to provide comfort and support because this is when family is truly needed.

Addiction can be a real financial and life-wrecker, especially in gambling. It's something that shouldn't have happened in the first place. That's why emphasizing education and discipline in gambling is incredibly important to prevent this from happening again.

Her family members, who didn't know anything about her gambling, would even feel embarrassed if they saw the video of her crying. They might also feel angry and ask the woman why she did it and upload it to the internet because it just shows her stupidity to the public, which is inappropriate. She can tell her family or friends about her gambling losses but not upload them to the internet.

Even if he has only gambled a few times and looks like a novice gambler, he should not bet an amount he cannot afford. She should have realized this before she gambled, but it was too late because she had already lost her money and could not recover it. Hopefully, she is truly sorry for what she has done and will not do it again.
