Judging your game while you play is probably the worst, trying to be helpful perhaps but only taking the fun out of playing.  Especially on a game that is random anyway, how can anyone really know the right way to play it when the results cannot be known.  A card game maybe, you can teach somebody new the reason to play it a certain a way but standing behind someone on the slots can be a quick way to get irritating and distract them from playing.

Does that actually happen often in brick and mortar casinos?
Because it sounds rather I would expect to happen back in the day when children played at game arcades and while playing Mortal Combat or racing car games, someone would start talking from behind, giving advices and telling what one is supposed to do in order to process faster.

I did not know it was a thing some continue to do even as grown ass adults. It gos against pretty much the basic etiquette of a gambling session.Imagine something like this happens to you while having a bad luck streak and some stranger comes in to comment on your bad performance.  Roll Eyes

Basically trying to act as if they didn't lose. They will complain there is cheating, there will be complaints that deck was marked, there will be complaints about rules are different etc etc etc. A sore loser could find a million reasons why they lost and they shouldn't have actually lost and they will want to hang on and keep on playing. Unfortunately that's not really the truth and we should not see them do anything like that.

I think it's obvious that we are going to bothered by their existence, you just want to keep gambling and have fun and here they are, ruining your fun. Anyone who doesn't just accept defeat right away, thanks, and leaves would be people who I will not want to gamble because that's what I would have done.

What about you, what do you dislike ?
I dislike and hate a gambler that makes fun of me while playing poker against him, or even anyone that makes fun of his opponent when he wins as i find it a very childish act and may lead the other part to answer with the same attitude or even lead to a bad fight. Happened many times before especially in poker and it’s a very popular and known thing that there’s a big hear between poker players after just some rounds as we all know that when it comes to money any person may lose his nerves and without a reason. Imagine having a provoking opponent that will make fun of you while you are suffering a loss?
Other than that everyone has a way to behave while gambling alone and against the casino, all the harm will be against the gambler himself from drinking too much or getting angry and it’s totally okay as long as you don’t pass other people’s rights.

I so much hate the fact that they're really extravagant on games; like, they see every session as an opportunity for them... How are they Gonna stop wagering if this is the case??...for this reason, they're really uncertainty of whether to save up for Thier families or not... All they do is keep wagering insensibly, then they'll Begin to yell out when 'em games don't even cut; sometimes I feel these peeps usually stress themselves out, staking on games with Thier cash just to get few slips ... hilarious isn't it?!

Isn't it natural that when losing at gambling they complain and tell stories? If their victory is never told then that is the nature of human beings who are characterized by direction while losing he complains but with victory he is silent for various reasons.

I don't think about this even if their mun complains I don't care, as long as they don't complain and then borrow money because their money has been used up in gambling then I am more annoyed with people like that.


True, but there's complaining and there's nagging and then going back to your unhealthy ways. Sometimes we gotta let off a little steam that's given and understandable, but if you're going to complain about losing on gambling, and then play back right after, that's grounds for addiction and you better slow down or you're getting your ass sent to a rehab facility. I understand OP's sentiments and I understand your argument as well, but I'm pretty sure OP's talking about the annoying type of complaining and not the bearable/tolerable kind. Which makes his point extra valid cause we don't want the friend that complains, asks for advices, and then throws those insights away and gets back to whatever unhealthy he's doing.

What is the one behaviour you noticed in a gambler and  you dislike it? You don't need to have a reason for disliking it but you just do.

As for me I dislike when gamblers complain of their losses, meanwhile you hear them complain when they are getting winnings.

What about you, what do you dislike ?
I hate people teaching you how to play or complaining about the way you're playing while it's not their money onto the table. I usually see that at blackjack tables, sometimes some players complain when they lose that you didn't hit, stand or split by claiming the dealer wouldn't have drawn this card if you had played in the same way as them. It's one of the most boring thing in gambling I guess.

I personally do not like when someone is too focused in their gambling or betting session to even pay attention to me or what I am saying. It is something I have noticed when someone in my family has placed a bet for a determined football or basketball match and they spend the afternoon watching the match; my cousins can get some focus on it that they would not listen if I ask them to do something.

I am not sure how common is that, but I guess it is rather normal, specially if we talk about gambler who are most accustomed to spend hours rolling dices and spinning slots. I very dislike when it happens.  Roll Eyes

It’s really annoying if you are the one who needs talk with them but you can’t blame them because you will surely do the same if you place money on a sports that you are watching. It’s like a feeling that the game will be lose if you didn’t watch it until the end. That’s the excitement part of sports betting.

I’m always being yelled by my wife for being too focused on the game and sometimes I’m also being agitated when someone keeps talking to me while I'm watching the game especially when I bet a significant amount of money.

Ah, yes I can totally understand that is the exciting part of sportbetting, to watch the match knowing that any bad movement or blunt for any team could make all the difference for one to pocket much money.  Wink

I have not betting much on football matches, but when I do I take my time to be sure I have enough time to watch all of it from beginning to end and with friends (because most of times everything is better with friends), but I have not put enough money at stake for me to get completely hypnotized by the screen and make people to have to scream at me in order to get my attention. Since I know how annoying it can be.



Another thing I do not like about some gamblers, specially in real life, is when they brag about winning sums which are obviously minuscule in comparison to the losses they themselves admit. To me it does not make sense.

Probably the rituals some people do while gambling is what bothers me the most, I have no problems if someone has some sort of ritual before they begin to gamble as that is a personal preference we all have the right to have or not, but when they do their rituals when the game is ongoing is bothersome as they disrupt the flow of the game, and now I have to wait a few minutes just so they can attract luck to their side, something which is nonsensical as they would have gotten the same outcome whether they did their ritual or not.
This is offline casinos or offline betting, you cannot do this on online casinos you are on your phase when you are playing online, I also encounter this on offline gambling in a color game one of the bettors took time before he release the ball he is saying a lot of mantra to attract luck to his side, surprisingly he is winning doing this, but I still maintain that luck is something you cannot just summon luck is the something just happen and sometimes when you least expect it.

When you're playing in offline betting you will always encounter gamblers like this, its annoying but you have to be patient because you are in a gambling table and you don't want to be off in your game.
Superstitious people and some of their superstitions are actually annoying sometimes because they believe in things that you can't even imagine. Some people believe that they will not win in gambling if they gamble on a certain day of the week like Friday or something, and they will win if they gamble on Sunday, I mean, how does that have anything to do with your luck at all? And we all know that gambling is totally dependent on your luck and nothing else.

And surprisingly, you will find such people with such beliefs applying them even to online gambling, if someone believes in mantras or anything, they will do that before they start gambling on an online gambling platform and they believe that they will start winning after doing all those things.

"The gambler's fallacy", its nothing but assuming the probability of an outcome depends on the results of previous outcomes which is totally wrong because the probability of particular outcome depends on the probability nothing else but in reality most of us refuse to accept that and we may call it as gut feel, instinct and superstition but in reality it's nothing but a blind belief.

Well, the list can be endless to be honest but it mostly shows the characters of an individual not the gambling like blaming the casino if they lose and call it as unfair results.

Being stubborn to accept their loss and keep trying to win back the lost bets, etc...

MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT
September 03, 2023, 12:50:04 PM
What I do hate is when a gambler acts like he knows it all on how to bet on games, like his own prediction on bet is the best, and final. Whatever correction or suggestions you bring to his notice, he would counter it, making you feel less of yourself that you don't know what you are doing concerning betting on games.

That kind of attitude display pains me to the bone marrow

Absolutely agree with you. I also do not like overconfident people when it comes to gambling as luck plays a very big role in this area. That's why you can never rule out that even a professional's bet may not play out. But I am very amused to see these overconfident gamblers at the moment when they lose their last money. The faces of these guys perfectly convey the resentment they feel.

In fact, the probability of losing has nothing to do with self-confidence. Rather, self-confidence in gambling as in everything else depends on a person's outlook on life - an optimist always thinks about only good while the pessimist is always ready for the worst case scenario. It is likely that these self-confident gamblers are optimists in life, so we observe such behavior.

It's like there is no doubt in him when gambling, even though every gamble will give results that we cannot predict. Being too optimistic is not good for a person's mentality when in the end he experiences disappointment in his beliefs. The effect is that the psychology will not be stable, such a gambler will become a gambler who believes too much that he will always win. There are times to win and there are times to lose, it's just an opportunity and each opportunity will give a different result.

Wow, a whole thread dedicated to complaints. I don't like complaints about gamblers complaining about something. Smiley

If a gambler complains about something, it means that he is not satisfied with something. Complaining alone will not fix or change anything. There are 2 options here: either analyze your mistakes so that you don’t repeat them in the future and then you don’t need to complain about anything. Or do nothing and keep complaining. I believe that it is necessary to choose a constructive option, not a destructive one.

Regarding the complaining gamblers. If they want this, let them complain as much as they want and about anything, it fundamentally doesn't affect me in any way and doesn't concern me, therefore, I have nothing to say what kind of their behavior I don't like. I don't care about their whining.

      -   Maybe there are other gamblers who, when they lose, suddenly get angry and blame the loss on the casino, and others think they are being cheated. These are the two reasons why I just hate a gambler who has this attitude. Though, when I lose, I regret it, and I feel discouraged like that.

And sometimes I also feel annoyed because I think that what I'm experiencing is only losing, as if the casino is manipulating what is done when playing in a slot game. This is what I experienced. Then the last one is that when the gambler withdraws and has an issue with his withdrawal of money, the casino is always blamed without any evidence to show.

Have you came across someone that loves begging for money to bet at slight opportunity they have, they can go lengthy of starving there self without food just to bets and that's annoyed me. There are some of them that will beg you money for food and for been kind and humanity, it is hard to see a friend who need help to cure hunger and ignore them, as soon as you give them the money, the next thought that comes to there mind is to bet the money in other to multiply the money, it's like a habit and that's bad of them.

There are many of them that irritate not just me but the nature, there are gamblers that are very common with drink, they can do anything to win and after getting luck on a bet, the next thing they do is to go to alcohol bar and drink to stupors, we have more of them that loves womanizing, I consider these set of people as been irresponsible people, I sometimes feel they don't deserve that luck they get in casinos.

I also hate the gamblers who blames us because they get losses. Moreover, if they ask for help or they follow the same way with their own intentions. They know that there will be always no guarantee for wins. But when they really get losses, they don't want to accept it and blame us. It is like the lazy gamblers who always want instant wins but they never accept the risks. To be honest, I will never to share anything again with the typical gamblers like this.

I believe no gamblers will complain when they win. Why they complain? All gamblers expect for winning every gambling game, but it is always not easy because no exact way to determine the wins.  Grin


Gambling is mostly about luck so it is really bad to blame anyone there is no guarantee of winning right here to take the risk. It is better to stop gambling if there is a possibility of losing before blaming someone here you have to take the burden of everything yourself. Since there are gains and losses in gambling, it is not always easy to determine when one becomes too much. It is not possible for a gambler to win consistently due to the successful use of game theory I think it's better to stay away from blamers.

Actually believing is good, but not good in some ways that must be forced when gambling. Too confident that they will win and get lots of jackpots. Even though it was just luck. Many make big bets and confidently laugh and belittle those who place small bets, even though every moment in betting such as football or horse racing can change, luck is the first. Feeling too confident will make anyone mentally down when they lose in the end.

In fact, the probability of losing has nothing to do with self-confidence. Rather, self-confidence in gambling as in everything else depends on a person's outlook on life - an optimist always thinks about only good while the pessimist is always ready for the worst case scenario.

What about you, what do you dislike ?
What I don't like about a gambler or maybe some gamblers is when they have a selfish nature and don't understand reciprocity.
I once had experience with some of my friends, when they lost at gambling they would come to me in a pitiful and helpless condition and I would hear complaints about the defeats and problems that befell them and in the end they forced me to borrow some money by begging for solve their problem.
As a friend of course I help but don't give full assistance. When it's my turn to need their help, they always act busy and try to avoid me and spread negative news about me!. But someday when they got into financial problems again they shamelessly came to me again to ask for help, as if nothing ever happened between us.
We have often experienced this with our friends, causing them to borrow money when they lose gambling. But when we need help, they don't want to provide help and instead act busy as you said. I've experienced this many times and since then, I withdrew myself into his circle of friends and decided to stay away from him so that he wouldn't dare come to my house and borrow money. But if he tries to spread negative news about me, my other friends will defend me because they know very well that I am not who he says I am. And maybe my friends will beat him up Grin
