The fact that he won the bet isn't a good reason for any one to try such because you may not be lucky enough because gambling is a thing of luck, you have no form of certainty as to what the outcome can always be but if you are lucky then you shouldn't think it will always be that way, using your life savings is too risky for a decent kind of risk especially for a thing like this that comes with so much of uncertainties.

Gambling is very much luck dependent and so shouldn't be followed with such risk because it's never promising and if it goes against you it's going to be terrible as in some cases it will cause you ruine as your savings might just be all that you have gat and loosing it in such manner will only ruine you. always choose to gamble responsibly that way you will save yourself from any form of ruin that may arise from gambling.

You said the man is crazy but supposing he list, you will say that he is stupid. To me the man is stupid. How will someone bet all his live savings on gambling. I hope he will not have this mindset again as he won. What if he list? He may think of killing himself and he might even kill himself. People like to do things in a greedy way and not think of the consequences if it went opposite.

I'm not exactly sure which company it was but I think the founder of FedEx literally gambled the all the money they had left to save it from bankruptcy (he won, and the rest is history).

Yes that's how desperate he was. The company was days away from going bankrupt.

Although we all know that it is an incredibly risky thing to do and people regularly get burned on bets even with conservative odds.
I am with you on this one boss, I had a friend who always hate gambling and when a medical attention is needed for his father he used will he had to place a bet and miraculously, he won, I have also heard about similar stories, it's like a calling for this people to take the gamble.

This person never even gambled for once before and when it came to saving his father's life he made this crazy decision, my mind was shattered hearing that he took this risk because all I could think about was what would have happened if he lost.

Since that day, I have started to believe that nothing is truly impossible, do not judge anyone, and anything can play out in anyone's life, maybe we all have potentials we don't even know about, not until we are pushed to the breaking point, it's crazy what can happen in anyone's life, this world is full of wonders at times.

When it related to the luck, sometime people will risks their money and maybe they will uses big money to see their luck is comes or not. It's an opportunity that they will not sees too often so that's makes sense if some people wants to try their luck. The big the risks, people will want to test their luck so they will try it with some money.

Yes, many people becomes addicted to gambling. That's why you must used gambling as a way to have fun. You don't have to thinks to makes money from gambling although some people can make money from gambling. You have a different way to make money, especially luck. The best advice is only use the money you can afford.

Gambling with all your saved cash might give you a crazy adrenaline rush but it's a risky move. That video on Twitter shows a guy betting everything on roulette and getting lucky. Still we gotta remember that luck can turn on you real quick. Smart move keeping it small like losing sucks and it's easy to get carried away. Better to enjoy the excitement in moderation and not risk everything

Some people are simply idiots. But first I wouldn't believe everything I see in videos like that. Would that man have done the same if there wasn't a camera in front of him? Besides, how can we be sure that they are his life savings?

If they were his life savings, I wouldn't be surprised if he would soon lose them with one gamble or another, or with drugs, or something, because those who take that kind of risk usually end up in a bad way.
Another "For Viral Video" mate?  Grin Cheesy

this is what and how Internet and social media fooling people and who is in their
right mind that will bet his life savings just for 50/50 chances?

Not sure if I am going to believe this but for me? this is just a made up video because
he might earn more in youtube and other platform once he earns millions of views .

and if me? never that I will have this guts betting my life savings just to try in gambling.

Possible yes, this is for clout only, and It hink that man knows that there's a set up camera in front if him. It's easy to fake everything and if we believe it, it means that we are just as easily manipulated. just like what was said in the reply, we are also not sure if the money he bet is really his life savings? because it's easy to say that even without proof. If this is even true, what he did was really risky and should not be imitated by others, because when it comes to gambling, you can lose everything you have in just one snap.

Anyway he looks still young, still have time to save money again.. and who know, put it on another bet ! Grin

But he will be the laughingstock of people and a bad example of putting risk his savings in case he loses, and even if he wins people will think that this is craziness, we don't know what the guy's job and what's his mental state to put all his saving in one bet.
So far that video already has 1.8 million views, if you are a content creator it will give you a good idea to put on that kind of show and hype it.  Cheesy
But seriously is it even legal to put in a show like that in a casino even if the casino owner stated that they do not condone this kind of act, gambling should be within the boundary of the law.

This is such a sight to capture, good for gambling promotion, but not a good lesson to share with gamblers around the world, I pity those who are moved by this video, it will end up doing more damage to the minds of gamblers out there and zero damage to casinos.

What I don't get is why they chose to roll the camera at this point, will they reveal the video if this man loses all his life savings? I doubt it because it will discourage gambling, and casinos will look not so good for many.


Here is my advice, be careful what you let into your head, some videos like this are intentional, remember that the old days, 80s and '90s were the best, until everything changed, the Television has its part in this, as many things we saw on TVs as a kid affected so many people too.

Some things are capable of turning your head upside down, some things are better not known, and they are meant to be shut away forever, all I am saying is let's be careful, there is a very weak line between becoming a responsible gambler and a recklessly driven gambler.

Yap already watch these.

IDK, the video are from (casino) property. I always things typical video like these, just for a commercial purposes unless the video is based on individual/customer side by using the phone. I will believe the video.

However, mostly people watching these video are think the same like me. Mostly for commercial ads casino.

Betting on roulette is bet based on numbers or colors and it is chosen to determine the win based on the ball spinning and stopping in the column provided, this is fun game for small bets but to bet everything I think is crazy.
Chance of winning is indeed 50/50, but if you make mistake in choosing what to bet on, you will definitely lose everything, after all betting in crazy way like this is usually done by those who are desperate and trying their last luck.
But things like this happen quite often, not only in roulette games but also in several other games or even sports betting and these are gamblers who really don't have normal thinking.
Normal people who still have sane mind cannot possibly risk all the money they have in just one betting attempt and they still have sense of consideration for the money they can lose.

In this context, he did manage to get lucky because what he bet on could provide greater amount of profit, but luck like this will not be easy to get or repeat.
He is too brave in making decisions and taking risks but luck is on his side, I myself would never think of trying to do the same thing because maybe it could lead to poverty and losing everything.

He was very lucky and won the Bet.
But this is very risky.


Not only very risky but crazy, the guy should not do that again he may not be lucky the next time, you worked all your life and you are risking losing everything if luck is not on your side, if he loses the roll he will regret all his life. He might do something bad to himself because of the depression.

Casinos should not let something like this be held in their casino because they will contribute to the man's depression all his life, casinos should promote responsible gambling, and betting all savings by one of your clients should not be tolerated by regulatory bodies, it's not entertainment anymore.

There are thousands of different people in this world whose intelligence I can't think of to appreciate. A man who gambles away all of his life's savings has a somewhat maddening sense of genius. Although in this case the man is lucky because his bet won, but think what would have happened if his bet had unfortunately lost.
One should never take such a big risk in life what would happen to his family if the man lost this bet. All his savings would have been reduced to almost nothing while his family would have gone bankrupt.

I would never do such a thing. That's just crazy. Did he even think about the "what ifs"? What if it loses? What comes next to his life?
I won't call this one as a courageous act or being brave, it's plain stupidity. He won. Does that make him wise? No. Because he might do the same thing next time and it will cost him everything. Why? Because he tasted the flavor or success when he won that one bet.
This is where people get addicted, because of their greed. They want to repeat the same thing as what happened to them while they are still a rookie but at the end of the day, we are all losers against the gambling platform, physical or online.
I bet he doesn't even have a responsibility like a family, because if he does, he would not do such a thing. I've been gambling for a long time and whenever the idea of betting bigger comes to my mind, I think of my kids first and that will stop me from doing a stupid mistake.

You may be right that the video is a pre-made just to attract traffic to their social media pages but we can not dispute the fact that people are doing unimaginable things when it comes to risk taking. I personally don't believe on things like this too as far as internet is concerned but there's possibility of legitimacy in that video too. This days, people can take whatever risk to increase their money without minding the outcome in case things backfired. No sane person will actually venture into something like that because I just can't imagine starting life over again simply because you gamble with your savings and lost them.

Imagine you work very hard and save as much as possible from twenties to sixties, then you will stake all of your savings on one games, it's either you will enjoy the rest of your life or die due to heart attack. Tongue

I won't dare to try this, it will bring a huge regret if I lose.

We shouldn't completely believe what we see on social media because we only see outside of things they want to share and let us know.
Probably it's real, the man is really using all of his life savings. But, we never know if his dad might be a billionaire and make $1M every month. Cheesy

Hahaha, I found this to be very funny, like is this supposed to be encouraging people to start using their life savings to take risks? It could bring them good luck or something. Lol, I would rather stay broke than take such risks, there are many things I can do to bring me good fortune, but taking such huge risks like this is just not one of them.

Good for this fella, he could have collapsed or fainted if the opposite had happened, I saw a lady among the crowd, already trying to cry, she knew the risk was way too much, I bet she won't ever do the same.

Some comments on Twitter are calling this fella a ball of steel, I found this not to be courageous, it's a plain stupid thing to do, I won't encourage such an act, even though he won, that's a life or death situation that he put himself, it's a big nah for me.

If you take everything you see or watch on social media seriously you will be nurturing an unsatisfactory feeling  towards the results of all your endeavors in life, and this is just one of those social media videos gamblers shouldn't take serious because it can make you to start questioning your luck in life going by all the years you would have been gambling and had not secured a life changing win.

Why do they have to film this particular gambler at this point and what are the proves that he had to bet all his entire life savings for a single spin, or was that what the makers of the story want us the viewers to know just to catch public attention.

This could be a true story but i don't want to believe that anyone would risk all their entire savings just on one game  without even considering how difficult things will become for them when they lose all that money. Sometimes while gambling I can make the decision of gambling more than I can afford to lose  but I can never touch my savings for gambling sake..

Surf on Twitter (X) and then find this video,
where a man makes a bet at the Roulette table using all his saved money.
It looks crazy and people warn him, but with that tension he gets his bet.


https://twitter.com/InternetH0F/status/1767704657055375493

He was very lucky and won the Bet.
But this is very risky.

It's about 50/50 odds, and he's in luck.
I myself have even done this silly thing but with little money.
LOL, there is no way I use all the money for gambling bets.
But I lost at every opportunity, so I stopped at losing.

Some such betting videos or experiences that really depend on luck,
makes us think whether we are that lucky or not.
Because many become unlucky gambling addicts with sad endings.
  In live there are people that doesn't care of what is going to happen if they lose anything that's very precious to them, this man that bets with all his life savings doesn't care anymore about the anything that will happen to him if incase he loses thr bet.
   I don't like such things because it can make someone to be very poor in life, gamble is about luck and lose, if you don't lose you will likely win but when you don't win yiu will lose.
   Less I forget, as a gambler if you bet with things you can not afford to lose you will not be able you console your self and truth be told that there will be no body to compensate you for your loses.
   The earliest you know that there would be no reward when you lose that's the better for you. Gamble is about 50/50, but I normally rate winning @10 while lose @90, so the earlier we realize this the better for us.

Social media are making people crazy and they will do anything for their 5 minutes of fame. This guy was lucky and I bet you he would have turned into a "Meme" for the biggest loser if he lost that bet.

We know how this is going to end for him, because this gave him his 5 minutes of fame and that attention is more addictive than drugs or gambling... he will do this again and this time he will lose everything.  Roll Eyes
We shouldn't completely believe what we see on social media because we only see outside of things they want to share and let us know. While the main truth will be kept hidden in the shadows. This might not be all the money he had, even if that was all. He have investment, eich freinds and other source of income. Losing in the bet he made will not affect him later because he can afford to lose the money he used in betting.

Let us not be deceived. 50/50 bet is not as bad as we think. It is a risk and what is gambling without risk. What is wrong is that you dont have to use all your money just like the said gambler did. All hands are not equal so we should cut our coat according to our size when we are gambling.
