Topic: A Lady Cried After Losing to Sports Bet. Gambling is Not Your Mate. - page 5. (Read 2143 times)

Yes, she has used bad methods to gain popularity because she revealed her bad story in public without thinking about what she and her family would experience in their daily lives later. There were people who would recognize her as a bad gambler who couldn't control herself in gambling so they would distance themselves from associating with that woman. We will not overreact to the video because we already know that losing money is a consequence that we will receive in gambling so we continue to limit ourselves so as not to suffer a big loss. She shouldn't have to show herself crying in public but could tell people not to gamble excessively and within reasonable limits.

Maybe it's like that but we also don't know her motive for showing herself to be sad because of gambling. But maybe she likes to show what happened to her so that people can find out and be curious about what happened to her. Now many people show what they do and upload it to their social media. And if they experience something, they want sympathy from people but if they lose gambling, they will not get sympathy but instead they will probably get condemnation because they cannot gamble responsibly.

We can cry if we experience loss but not by showing it in public because that would embarrass us, especially if people know us. They will say bad things about us, eventually discovering that we often gamble and experience losses. It's better for us just to keep it hidden rather than show other people what we experience in gambling because maybe later, there will be misunderstandings between us.

There is definitely nothing wrong with crying after regretting a decision or out of grief about what has happened, but why record yourself crying and put it for the public to see? That's the point I'm unable to understand, and it indicates that the person is probably trying to get sympathy from people for what she has lost when it's completely her own fault since she is an adult and she probably knew that one can lose everything in gambling as it involves a lot of risks.

People need to understand one simple thing; gambling isn't a way for them to double or triple their money, it's not a guaranteed way to achieve wealth but it's just a way to either have some fun or just try your luck, don't just keep spending your money with the hope that you might win something big in the next bet, that bet doesn't come.

Most of such news is just based on acting and the source of the news has been known for posting fake news which is something that has triggered suspicious views about the legitimacy of this news, but then if it is true about the woman gambling away such an amount of money and thereafter coming on social media to cry out os such a shame and will draw a lot of backlash for the lady if this news is true.
We also have to learn some lessons from the whole incident and as a woman, you need to weigh your actions, before you take them most especially in areas such as gambling that have high risk.

Crying would really be that a result of extreme frustation and disappointment or something that in result in losing too much money and somewhat we do know that women are really that just too sensitve on things.
Even if the said situation isnt really that too severe or simply had just lost some amounts on doing gambling but ended up with that kind of reaction which it is most likely that women would really be having this kind of reaction on which i could say that it is really that normal since losing money is never been pleasing or something a good thing. This is why its really that important that you should really assess the situation because if you do find yourself not really that tolerant when it comes on losing money then it would really be just that right that you shouldnt really be engaging on gambling.

Some people who do really just make dealing with some things just for the sake of curiosity and on the time that they had spend out that much and wasnt expecting to be like that then they would really be
that in state of shock and the worst you would really be ending up on crying. Gambling isnt for those faint heart on which they dont really like to experience some losses
specially into their funds but of course having your first experience on things would determine whether you do get interest or not.

Isn't that the story of sore losers. I mean we have seen a ton of people in our life that lost something because of their own mistakes and instead of learning from it as a response, they end up crying about it. I have seen even people who cheated their spouse and then cry about being divorced, dude you shouldn't have cheated then, not like this was a shocking response to it, you made it yourself.

I believe that we are going to end up with a lot of people who lose at gambling and cry over it, this lady wasn't the last one and I am guessing that it wasn't the first one neither, it's just the way some people are. I have lost and cried before as well, to be fair I was in my room all alone, but I did, nothing like big scene type, just some drops from my eye type, because I was scared and made a stupid childish mistake of losing a lot of money that I shouldn't have, but I learned from it and never made that mistake ever again in my life at all.

if it was all about fame I would say that it is a very bad way to gain fame but he humiliated himself in public without thinking about the long term risks he would definitely be bullied for posting a video of him crying because he lost a bet or in gambling meanwhile, there are lots of gamblers out there who laugh at this woman behavior because its really funny when she loses and cries like a child losing her candy.
such behavior should not be done just for the sake of fame and if she wants to gain fame it would be better if there are still many ways to gain fame by showing her gambling activities because it is rare for women to gamble on sports betting and she will definitely get more positive fame.

He has now become famous in his community because of his video posts. But there is no need to do this because there may be people who are not happy to see the video and blaspheme what he has done in sports betting. Maybe the woman's goal was to gain fame after she posted her video and she has succeeded in getting it. But after what he experienced, hopefully, he will realize it and won't place any more bets. But if he still places bets on sports betting, that means what he did yesterday was in vain and he wants to seek fame without thinking about what will happen to his family. Now, it has become a trend that what we experience must be documented and then uploaded on social media so that people know about it.

It is the right of him who wants to do it, no one has the right to forbid him. Indeed, this will give her a bad reputation in the eyes of other people, but she only expresses her sadness on social media and need people sympathy and attention, not only attention there will definitely be a lot of abuse that people will throw at her, especially since she is a woman, this cannot be done it's true that apart from embarrassing himself, it also causes his mental state to become even more down.
However, it also teaches us to always be careful when betting and use money we can afford to lose so that we don't feel too sad when we experience defeat.

It's bad because she expected a win. The moment she treat gambling as a source of income, it is not about the control of herself anymore. It's about thinking of having an easy life and having a fortune through gambling. She prefer to make money with gambling and hoping that it would be the time for her to have a better life. That's why she was left crying as she did not obtained what she wants, which is to win in gambling.

In this situation, realization will come. She should realize that gambling is not some kind of source of income. Ahe should find a better job and don't wish to have an easy life. It's better to have a hard earned money than earn it easily.

It is true that in gambling there will be losses and wins, but the situation of the woman is bad because she could not control herself. Greed worked in him and considered a source of income but no one can give exact guarantee of winning in gambling. Therefore it is better to proceed according to your own strategy and after a win it is better to rest for a few days without re betting. Getting out of difficult situations is easy if you proceed with proper knowledge and intelligence.

Everyone uses social media to share fundamental and inconsequential news, and we also utilize the system to print sufficient earnings as complies with our pattern rather than continuously liquidating our accounts. The woman who posted a video of herself bemoaning and crying only intends to draw attention to herself, and bloggers are also assisting in her rise to fame. Probably to get famous and win people's feelings of empathy. Wake up, people. Everyone who engages with the field of gambling has suffered significant setbacks, but we have all maintained our composure in these dire circumstances by not publishing and going viral. She of all people should have realized that gambling is detrimental, so why would she create a video lamenting the addictive character of her existence in the space? Probably for reasons best known to her.

She should not show her sadness due to her loss at gambling and instead, keep it to herself and realize her mistake and not repeat it. But maybe showing her sadness to the public could show that she was truly sorry about everything and warn everyone she knew not to gamble or they would suffer the same fate.

Yes, that is an example of not using much money to gamble, especially when they cannot afford to see the loss later. And those of us who may still frequently gamble must be able to learn from what has happened to us so that it doesn't happen to us. And we also have to remember to always use the money we can afford to gamble.

This is how she deal with losses, and it's not a bad thing though since this also serve as an awareness for other gamblers on what can happen if you use your money in gambling. Her money won't come back even after crying but if this can somehow help her accept the reality then let her be.

Anyway, just a perfect example of don't use the money that you can't afford to lose and clearly this is the case for this woman. She made a mistake, but at least she learned a lesson that gambling is not for people who can't accept losses. If the result of her bet turned the other way, for sure she will continue what she used to.

I want appreciate your thoughtful comments @Kakmakr. People make mistakes and when it leads to bad experiences they should be allowed to express themselves in different ways like crying. I have even made some errors that made me weep for more than a day. It is sad she learned her lessons in such a painful manner but I guess next time she will gamble only what she can afford. But I am not comfortable with people posting their experiences on the internet. I see it as unnecessary and it would also give the girl a bad reputation. But her story will also serve as a deterrent to others.     

Well, sadness and regret is a human emotion and people handle situations differently. We should not judge people for showing their emotions, because we are all human.

It does not matter if she knew that she would lose her money or not.... she did and she decided to show her emotions. A lot of people are so desensitized to people around them and immediately perceive actions like this in a negative way.

Let's give people the opportunity to learn valuable lessons in life and allow them to cry if they learnt those lessons. 

exactly mate , because this is a great example of how people can turn so stupid when it comes to gambling .
right , because the truth is? almost everyone that get involved in gambling nowadays has one belief and reason ,
that is to become an instant rich if not millionaire so they even gambler everything to reach that goal.
making them a loser all their life.

Many gamblers miss out the major rule of gambling that is never invest all of your money in gambling. If you have some extra money for investment and wanna try your luck, then only go for gambling. If you don’t want to take risk at all, then gambling is not for you. In gambling there is always remains the fear of losing. So if your luck is not good then no one can save you. Crying won’t help, as the OP has mentioned above. You should always gamble in limit.

Social media has always been geared in this direction, it is just that now it is even more obvious that on the past and this is causing a massive amount of distrust, in this case as you mention even if this particular case was a real one, this person could be earning more money out of the views an clicks they are getting thanks to all the people that saw her video, which will in turn just encourage her to keep doing this trying to pursue the money and fame she thinks she can get, and most likely she will end with neither since it is very difficult to maintain the attention of other people like her on those platforms.

The modern social platforms are all about reactions, dancing and whatever appeals in 5 seconds.  Instant emotions candy, its a big appeal to the mainstream traffic hence numbers of views can be massive.  Posting about the technical data behind her bet and actually learning from the experience in exchange for the money gain some knowledge long term, this aint happening on that particular platform.
  I wont be surprised if she gained so many views if people share the same feeling and engage with the post that her ad revenue is greater then her losses, in that case I cant blame her for playing the game in a different way

It's really hard to sympathize with her as she posted her own reaction especially crying with what she did and her wrong decision. It's literally a common situation on sports betting whereas there are some matchup that may look like a one sided game but the latter team win and I guess most of us who do sportsbet already experience it.

She could've posted her experience and not her literal reaction as it only shows how much she just wanted some attention to her wrong decision making.
