I think that what degenerated the mother and son to squander such huge amount of money on gambling is where they're most probably chasing loses, because when you bet a huge amount of money and lose, if you have the mentally that it's because of a miscalculation on your side that made you to lose, then you'll perfect plans to correct the perceived mistake and bet huge amount again. With time the gambler will unintentionally become addicted to recovering loses, until when his or her account is empty, that's when reality will down on the person. I want to believe that is what happened in the case of the woman and son in discussion, the next step for the failed gamblers to do would be to find another person to blame for their mistake and hopefully recover the lost money from them
Chasing losses will not guarantee that someone can recover and get their money back, especially if it is a large amount of money. They will still find it difficult to recover from their losses, but they may have luck another day so they can recover a little of their losses. That is why when gambling, a person must use the money he can afford and must not exceed his limits so that he does not regret the money he has lost at the gambling table. He also wouldn't think about recovering his losses because he could see that he didn't see much chance of getting the money back. And if there are people who blame us for the losses they experience from gambling, we should just leave them, especially if we don't do anything about them. He gambles based on his own decisions and has nothing to do with us or anyone else, so he doesn't deserve to blame us or anyone else. That is his responsibility when playing gambling.
Of course there is no guarantee that your money will be returned if you gamble because it is a risky thats gamblers must bear if they experience a loss, therefore we must use as little money as possible and set limit and always adhere to your principles, if you gamble it means what you have in mind is to be ready if you lose so that you don't experience things that will disappoint you and cause you to gamble more because usually gambler who can't accept their losses will increase the amount of their bet so that their losses can come back quickly, you needs to remember that This is very dangerous, especially for those who don't really understand the high risky involved in gambling.

A gambler who experiences a big loss should not blame other people for his own mistakes if there is no element of coercion, after all gambling is a game of chances, so those who cannot afford to lose money in gambling should avoid it from the start.

    Chasing losses, or attempting to recover previous losses with bigger bets, is a dangerous practice. It often results in further financial setbacks. One of the biggest things that separates professional gamblers from recreational gamblers is that professionals can control their emotions. Unfortunately, this is not something that too many recreational bettors understand. Like some other things on our traits of successful sports bettors, emotional control is something that is easier said than done. Emotional control is a tough habit to master. However, it will be impossible to become a successful sports bettor if you can’t set your emotions aside. Emotions all too often get in the way of making sound betting decisions based solely on data. If you’d like to become more of a successful bettor, you’ll have to learn emotional control so that you begin to make decisions based on data as opposed to your emotions.
    People will always find a reason to blame others when they are experiencing loss, it is human nature to find faulty when things are not going their way. Instead of taking up responsibility and finding possible ways to improve their performance. No one forced you to  gamble it’s you sole responsibility to take up what’s coming whether good or bad. I don’t think if the game was going in your favor you will have any reason to point fingers. No matter what result it might result to take up responsibility and work on yourself.

The moment someone acts on an idea it becomes their own idea basically. They will get all the pros and cons of that. The original person that shared the idea is no longer relevant to the outcome.

That's true, these same idea can either come from our fellow gamblers or from what we see online, but we are the one taking their ideas to make it effective on our gambling bet we made, if we loose, it's up to us and if we win, it's still the same thing as being responsible to our own actions, no one forces or stops us from gambling and also shouldn't be responsible for any outcome that we see from it.
In the decline of emotions and living in despair without any warmth by human love and support, we are always looking for someone's light, a person is closely related to the process of gambling to blame or more is the people who interrupt our party. The closest is probably the casino and farther, probably family, almost when all arrows are directed to the loser, they have the reaction to push that arrow to others with the expectation of ignoring and forgiving to reduce repentance, sometimes we do the same as a way to forgive ourselves

Court sentences mother, son to 7 years imprisonment and what did they do? Court sentences mother, son to 7 years imprisonment

The mother and the son after gambling away 5.6 million naira, that is about $8,000. When the reality dawned on them, they gave false information in petition, accusing someone of fraudulently transferring the fund from their Opay account to the sport betting account without their authorization.

Could this be a case of making someone pay for what they didn't eat or a case of double standard.

Bet as you can sustain and not allow your emotions have a better part of you.


This for me unethical and should not be tolerated. I think they deserve to be in jail for that libelous crime they just did. They were too desperate to get their funds back in unethical way. Their emotions eat them. 😅

Yes, most probably that was the case.

When you start losing, and still have some money left, some people start freaking out and see gambling more as the only way out of the huge debt.

But in reality they will most probably end up losing way more money that they expected.

I have seen several people who gamble on the advice of others and are very happy when they win. If suddenly they lose, they blame the person whose advice they gambled on. Never get hot while gambling if you lose your head.  If you make a rash decision then you will lose all your money. If you can gamble with your thoughts then it will be very good for you. But I think those who are totally involved with Joya have no peace in their life and are always depressed.

You are very right, it is commonly said that no man is an island of knowledge, so even as much as we think we know on our own, we still get to learn a thing or more when we open ourselves up and engage in discussing with other people, whether they be friends, relative, neighbors or even enemies.
And yeah, the purpose of engaging in discussions with other people not to allow them decide for us what to do, but to get to learn what their perspective is to what ever the discussion is all about, from what they think, we could learn or get to know about something we never even thought of, the final decision is always ours to make, even if our final decision turn out to be someone else's idea, it becomes our decision the moment we decide to go with it.

Yeah, spot on.

The moment someone acts on an idea it becomes their own idea basically. They will get all the pros and cons of that. The original person that shared the idea is no longer relevant to the outcome.

Some people will always like to blame others when they fail, and take all the credit when they win.

In reality, you should be responsible for all your actions, good and bad.

That's the point. No one can really predict correctly in this case so regardless of whatever predictions we make at the end of the day gambling is still gambling because it only goes back to predictions not one hundred per cent will win.
My friend knows that so in this case he is also aware that every choice he makes in the end is based on his own decision not coercion from others (in this case me and my friend).
Even if it was me and my friend who did some predictions but still the final decision is of course on my friend who made a bet so that we lose then it will only be a joke for the three of us because this is really funny.
I also have a friend with whom we can discuss some events, this applies not only to gambling, we share opinions and forecasts, but each of us understands well that the final decision remains with each of us, because in the end each of us will risk their money. I will say that it is good when you can discuss something with a person you completely trust, this can lead to the right decisions.

it is a great absurdity to keep blaming other people for our mistakes in gambling, I have noticed that most of the time when people lose money in gambling they tend to get very angry and when another person appears and tries to tell the person who lost and is angry that he needs to calm down, the person who lost part of it to verbal aggression and in other cases part to physical aggression, something unnecessary considering that the lost money does not come back so getting angry will not solve the problem

That's why it's always mandatory for people to gamble only with money they can afford to lose, to prevent people from getting into debt and depression when they lose at gambling and in other, much more serious cases, the person starts to feel guilty and commits suicide, and leaves more problems for relatives, for example he leaves a wife and children and that means that he destroyed a family because he didn't contain himself emotionally when he lost money in gambling, that's the worst scenario. I hope everyone plays with moderation and responsibility

I will say that it is good when you can discuss something with a person you completely trust, this can lead to the right decisions.
As strange as it may appear, gambling doesn't correspond to our intentions; the system was designed to keep us failing and recording liquidated accounts from losses. Gambling is not an easy undertaking; we suffer failure and loses when our forecast games go against our predictions, but some period, we gain massively from the system. It is apparent that we must stand up and eliminate the mindset or thought of blaming others for our gambling losses. Nobody knows what will happen in these games, so we just have a chance of gaining or losing, which I accept.

In such sports games, even if you have a vast knowledge in that certain game or knows the players/teams will, you will still end up with the same chances where you have more chances of defeat compared to your winnings. In gambling world, all of these are normal and some said that if you cannot take it or accept it then gambling is not for you because nothing here is guaranteed even if you use your techniques or analyzes things carefully. It will be all the same in the end.

Same at the end it's a big risk with your money, whatever you think it is and how assure you are that you will going to win there's always
something on the other side that may happen along the way.

You are the one who's liable for every action that you take during your gambling. There's no one to be blame aside from
your own decision making.

If you lose, take it and accept the consequences. Same when you win. Treat yourself and enjoy your winnings.

Yep, that's right. Because the focus is only on discussion and not telling each other to bet as long as the results of the discussion actually become lucky then it is something good but when the opposite happens (loss) then it does not become a division because we realize that things like this we already have each other's awareness that gambling is about ourselves and the finances we have.
This is possible and of course with this kind of thing our relationship with friends is also not disturbed, it becomes very close in any way and of course in this case we become more aware of each other's limits even though we often talk about gambling.

Discussing is good but only as long as the decisions are taken individually, never make the mistake of suggesting a decision because if your decision is taken and it doesn't fall in their favor, you will surely be blamed for that decision since you are the one who suggested them to make that decision. So the best thing is to simply discuss the facts and figures but make sure you let them know at the end of the discussion that the final decision is theirs and they should only choose a side if they feel it's going to win.

I've seen a lot of people who would blame the other person after they face a loss only because they said that the side that lost will win, even if they didn't tell them to follow their suggestion but they did it themselves and then when lost, they would start blaming the other person.

This is so on point.

Blaming others shouldn't be in someone's vocabulary if he really knows what exactly he is doing before he make the final decision and then the execution. No matter how enticing others offers or advices to you, you won't bulge especially if you know better. You won't let others affect your decision making because you know you can handle well given the circumstances. This is also to avoid having a bad blood with other people.

Now, if you want to take the risk and try to take others advices, then be sure to do not hold grudges the moment it won't turn out well or the way you expected it to. This is because the final say still lies on your hands. Therefore the consequences of it are also your responsibility.
And before we follow other people's advice, we should be able to see what risks we will get and how to overcome the risks if they become big. That way, we don't have to blame other people because we have already discovered what risks we will face and how to overcome them. And if we don't want to follow someone else's advice or suggestions, we don't have to follow them and find a way that works for us.

Decision-making should not be hasty and only rely on other people's advice or suggestions, especially those that concern our lives. We are responsible for our lives, so we must find our own way. Besides, if we make a mistake based on other people's advice or suggestions, other people will not always immediately want to help find other suggestions because they must think it's their life to find their own way.

Agreed, those who are able to make money management properly will also be able to manage their gambling properly. Some gambler loses repeatedly, there may be some change in themself. They may suffer from depression. If they loses a bet, in some causes they try to blame someone else to reduce their human stress. However, not all gamblers have this nature. But one should never blame others for one's own faults. A gambler must have knowledge about this and should control their emotion.
Exactly as you said, you shouldn't blame anyone for your gambling activities! I mean, it's you who made the decision to gamble so you should stop blaming others when you lose. By doing that you might feel better and reduce your stress, but you'll probably make someone else upset and uncomfortable around you. Smiley

If you gamble and lose it's your responsibility. Why did you gamble in the first place? Why did you take that bet? Ask yourself those questions instead of directing blame towards the person who may have influenced your gambling choices.

Bet as you can sustain and not allow your emotions have a better part of you.

Where they spent the money is almost irrelevant to the actual crime that they committed, which was dishonestly, theft and fraud. They could have spent that money buying thousands in gift cards, then turning around to claim that someone had stolen their card to buy it. I don't know what the banks are like in their country, but in some countries they might have actually been refunded with potentially a more detailed investigation taking place to determine the "culprits". The fact that they did it for gambling just shows how desperate and naive they were, probably thinking that they could make some big win - pay it back and keep the excess, but it's not a job and the majority of people will never profit from it.

Foolishness and the inability of someone to accept their fault could be responsible for shifting blame when no one pushes you to gamble. The solution to gambling rightly is to gamble responsibly, and that could be done through discipline and self-determination, nothing else. Fine, one could manage their gambling portfolio, but that's just an approach to gambling rightly, but addicts often abandon all that when they are losing, not even a reasonable calculation or advice can save them at that time.

Since this is a psychological issue that triggers the emotions of the gambler, it takes a psychological approach of being disciplined from within to tackle it.

Interestingly, one's inability to accept mistakes and reality is what usually looks for scapegoats to blame. usually it happens, in people who do not have the mind and mental maturity. This tendency always beats a healthy mind and even tends to be irrational.

In gambling, we are well aware that this entertainment involves money at stake. the risk is, we lose the bet. however, if in this defeat we often blame someone and even blame the casino. usually, the person experiences some disturbance within himself. although in some cases, mistakes can occur due to contributions and a friend. or, even mistakes made by the casino, assuming, casinos that don't have good credibility and reputation.
ideally gamble without involving other parties, and make gambling part of the entertainment only. if you are lucky, let's say you get a bonus. but if on the contrary, it means luck is not on our side. just make it entertainment, with the limitations we have. also, without having to involve other parties. thus, we avoid blaming others.
