That is how the idea of this topic appeared. I watch others gamble, I watch how the bet, I start to think about betting more than usually. Do you have such feeling also? Do you have a feeling that if others make large bets, that you also must bet large, otherwise you would feel like uncomfortable, or feel like a poor among rich, or something of that kind.

I don't allow others to influence my decision when gamble as I know what works for them and give them luck when gambling mightn't work in the same way for me. They might be using big wager and winning but what will work for me is when I use small wager and it makes me to be less exposed to risk of losing big amounts of money. They might also not be using a big amount to them as they have more money but to me that amount of money would be very big if I lose the bet.

I can watch other individuals gamble and enjoy it but I won't copy them, some individual are gambling for entertainment and don't care if they win or lose but when you copy them with the mindset that you want to make money then you'll lose. I don't like large wager, they're very dangerous and can make a gambler get into depression after losing the money, this is the reason we have to gamble with what we can afford to lose.

Yesterday, when I was playing Crash, I have caught myself thinking that I watch on how much people bet, how much they won and lose. First I have felt envy, when I saw one guy bet 200-300 bucks all the time for half and hour and cashed out with 2+ multiplier. Among bets in range of 1 sat to a dollar, he was really standing out. Then I have noticed a guy who was betting a dollar and did not cash out until rocket passes 10x. I was also amazed how a guy bet 1k, and lost it when the rocket banged at 1.00x, then he immediately made another 1k bet and the rocket banged at 1.03x. Then I saw him winning +5k bucks.

That is how the idea of this topic appeared. I watch others gamble, I watch how the bet, I start to think about betting more than usually. Do you have such feeling also? Do you have a feeling that if others make large bets, that you also must bet large, otherwise you would feel like uncomfortable, or feel like a poor among rich, or something of that kind.

That has happened to me before, not in an online casino but in another form of gambling, which we call a physical color game at a fair that can only be seen when there is an upcoming festival in our area.

At that time, I noticed that a bettor his size bet on color games, and at the same time as he was playing, I was also betting on the color that I would predict would come out, but I always lost and he always won. In short, it seems that even when he bets, he always wins, so what I did when he bet was that I also bet, and after that, I recovered my loss, and in the end, I even won because of his betting until I stopped because I won, I'm here, and I've recovered from the loss.

No, I'd rather stay away from looking at other gamblersbets, or rather, I really don't do that thing after one incident in my gambling hobby. You see, it's like a phrase where you are just adding fuel to the fire, meaning if you are watching or looking at other bets and how much they earn from them, you will have the idea and urge to do the thing also, thinking that maybe if you copy them, you will also win like them. It's like motivation in the wrong way, because you see, not all of us have the same luck or confidence to face the fearsome risk in gambling, or, let's say, maybe what you say in others winnings is just one side of a coin. Meaning, if yes, you see they won a lot, but did you see the whole history of gambling of that person? And if you do, do you think the huge amount he won will be enough or more than what he lost? Don't be motivated by this thing because it will only lead you down the wrong path or, at worst, cost you much more money.

No, because I don't guide my life by what other people do on theirs. If you keep comparing yourself to others you will fall ill at some point. Actually, the fact you feel like you should place larger bets in order to not stay "beyond" towards other gamblers is already a pretty negative indicator. You feel uncomfortable or poor among the rich, because you are lacking self-esteem. You are measuring yourself and everyone else by what they possess materially, and not by what they really are on their essence. Consequently, you won't develop yourself as individual, full of unique potentials, qualities, morals, values, and also faults, to become just an ambulant sack of money walking around, incapable of achieving self knowledge and seeing what really matters in this world.

I myself have seen people placing bets, what he did was keep quiet and watch the gambling progress, and at one time he placed a bet with a large amount, this happened in front of me, I myself did not fully understand the gambling, because I was only focused to people who make me curious. with the final result that he got was a win, I didn't approach him to ask how, but I myself was just amazed by him, because by observing and then placing a bet he was able to win, whether it was a trick or just luck.

but I myself believe more in luck, so I don't follow it, I gamble according to my own desires, if I really believe then maybe winning can happen. but even so, I think luck is still inseparable, so the victory I got was based on luck. In my opinion, there is also no guarantee of winning by copying other people's bets, because I think even if we do the same thing as other people, it doesn't necessarily mean that the result will be the same (winning), but the most likely result in the end is losing.

We're all humans, and feeling like a minor when you see such quantitative involvement is normal, like it makes you feel some sort of irrelevant, worst of it all, you can feel as though you're not measuring up or you're not doing enough. It will also be a big lie for anybody to claim they're not feeling that way if such scenarios presents themselves.
The thing is that once you're principled and have set your budget and also planned yourself properly, whenever such feelings arise from within you, you remind yourself that you've a budget which you must strictly follow for your own good. That competition mindset should not be entertained in your mind, lest it  prompts you to engage in a very dishonorable manner in order to just measure up.

All fingers are not equal and all motives are not the same, your motive might be to gamble for fun, and them possibly gambling addicts or higher income earners. Just stick to your discipline and budget and you'll be just fine.

Do you pay attention on other people bet and it amount, and does it affect you?
Pay attention to every win and big bet made by other users, maybe that's something we usually see, some gambling sites do display advertisements for those who have good luck in betting, that's common and maybe we often see it.

But if we talk about influence, for me personally no, I gamble based on the ability that I have and I don't care how many millions of dollars they bet and the winnings they get, Maybe there are other people who are affected by situations like that, but not me, I know very well the effects felt in the gambling arena.

I gamble without being forced or coerced, carrying out gambling activities based on common sense and controlling all actions that endanger myself.

Lets start with "you pretend that you are good in gambling when you can hardly win". How did you come with this conclusion? Just by watching how much others bet, does not make me a bad gambler. Now really, I want to know how can you tell if someone is bad or good at something just by reading the post?

"you have a problem with your ego, you don't want other people to beat". Another mystery for me. What made you think I dont want others to beat me? I've said I envy their win, but it means that I only also wish to be so lucky and afford to bet such amounts. This isnt like this facts eats me or something. I do it for fun anyway.


Apology for the wrong use of words in trying to make it general among gamblers who do this and its not meant to target you but to make it general among gamblers who pay attention to other people's bets, I emphasize and categorize these kinds of gamblers not you, hope we can move on to this, apology again.

you might want to get that kind of thought out of your head. being influenced to gamble more and how much you should bet because of other people is a disaster waiting to happen, you are basically feeling FOMO(fear of missing out) and we all know what consequences FOMO can have. If I were you, you need to stop feeling that you need to show off for them, they do not care how much you bet, make yourself comfortable with the betting strategy that you have and enjoy your time.

I honestly can't lie in this matter, and this feeling often occurs when I gamble with some of my friends, gather in one room wherever it is and agree to gamble together in online gambling types such as slot machines and when one of my friends gets a large amount of winnings such as managing to get a maximum win of x1000 in slot gambling then at that time honestly there is a feeling of envy and maybe it's not just me who feels it but some of my other friends who are not lucky also seem to feel the same way, In the event that you've got a lot of time on your hands, you'll be able to do a lot more than that.

But what happens is the result is the same and even the amount of my defeat is getting bigger which ultimately makes me owe my friend, so honestly I can't fully control myself when gambling with friends because this feeling must exist when there is one friend who manages to get a big win, and now honestly I prefer to avoid that by gambling alone because this will prevent me from something that can provoke me to increase the amount of bets, or usually I am accompanied by one of my friends who doesn't like gambling because this way he can remind me not to overdo it.

If that's the case then you have a problem with your ego, you don't want other people to beat you and you always want to be ahead or imitated, and this kind of attitude or character is difficult for gamblers, you pretend that you are a high roller when you're not and you pretend that you are good in gambling when you can hardly win.

If that's the case then you have a problem with your ego
This is apparently a cause of your either greeds

What if I told you that I analyse and evaluate other people bets to find out possibilities of Crash game? That from my observation, chance to win/cashout with range 1.01-1.3 in Crash is much higher than playing Stair or Mines for example.

I believe I have been influenced by this same thing and I did increase my bet because of a stream I saw online and I thought if I should increase it then a single win would give me more profits (which is true) but I never thought about me losing it.

But when I became aware of the fact that not all those videos or streams are legit, some are being sponsored by the casino and if you should follow their footsteps and increase your bets rather than your usual gambling budget you’ll only end up losing – now I don’t even watch streams unless I’m bored and when I do I don’t even care about what I have seen, something I just do it to see their reaction to some of their large wins (which most of us pray for it to be us, despite knowing that it was rigged ”in some cases”).

It's not the bet, but the amount of money other gamblers won that intrigues me and I envy I used to ask why these people are luckier than me and Crash is one of the games where you can see people betting $5 and win thousands of dollars because of the multipliers, it's something will make you envy but you have to realize that every bettor has their destiny and luck in gambling.
We have to mind our own business when it comes to gambling It is ok to look but it should be something that will motivate you and not something that will challenge you to try to beat the other gamblers because it will not work.

NO for me, other's gambling activity will not affect my betting style, not only for the bet amount but also the game played by others.
I have my own betting style and I'll always stay with it no matter what I saw out there.
If you are attracted to bet more than what you used to do after watching other's bets, I'd say it is not a good sign.
Better to stop playing when you feel like that or simply ignore other bets, you cant be as lucky as others by following their betting style.

I also remember playing Crash on Bustabit and TrustDice, and I often observed what multiplier others withdrew and how much money they made or lost. I'm not sure about TrustDice, but on Bustabit you could also see the gross profit of other players, and trust me, some users had lost extravagant amounts of money on that game. Thus, although you may be focusing on the successful bets, it's important to know that behind those success stories, there are many more who have lost excessive amounts of money.

That was my reality check to stop checking how much others earned. It's still fascinating to see people earning large amounts of money within seconds, but I don't focus on it nor do I comment on it.

Sometimes I do feel the same. I think it's inevitable to be envious at some point, especially seeing other gamblers making bigger bets and earning more. Sometimes I feel envious and amazed at the same time on how much they win but I don't think that ' I'm poor among the rich' since I mostly gamble online and I don't feel like I'm being surrounded by rich gamblers. You can't say that those bettors who bet bigger than what you usually bet are richer than you so I don't really feel like being the poor one. It's possible if I'm in a casino but I've never thought of that with online gambling.
With crash, it's like a bitter and sweet feeling seeing others making it big while others losing big money as well. So in order for me to avoid it, I just play safe with the amount I can afford to play.

It's a good habit that you developed to only bet what you can afford to lose. It's not really advisable to risk what you can't afford to be gone after a worse case scenario, and even more betting what you currently don't have. Borrowing and exceeding your limit will drive you nuts especially when you don't achieve the result that you are expecting to happen. It will just make you mad and probably do worse things based on your emotions.

Yes, being envious and jealous can sometimes happen. But this is because you keep on looking on the others bet. It's important to avoid comparing because comparison is a thief of joy. For instance, instead of being happy that you won, you might even feel discouraged and sad because other people you know won bigger amount than you. Your own comparison shouldn't be others, rather your not so good version of yourself instead. Research more, have more strategies, and pray fervently for luck to be on your way.

I also used to see how people gambled their money and how they won even with small capital. But recently I've reduced this because I feel it's just uncomfortable for me to constantly see how other people gamble and how they can win with their gambling. I think that envy is a poison that if left for a long time makes us not focus on what we are doing and it could bring us bad luck. And that's why now I don't really pay attention to how people gamble.

We can get affected when we see other people's bets and how they win when they are playing. When we see people's big bets win, it makes us feel envious and would like to adjust our betting behavior, making us want to beat other people in the game. It's important to recognize such feelings to make choices based on your own comfort, budget, and strategy, not on what other people think or feel.

A responsible gambler plays within his bankroll, within his allocated time and he never compares his results and how he plays with gamblers because he understands that every gambler plays differently, they have their level of enjoyment, bankroll, and a time frame when playing and if you're an average player you can't beat a high roller because they back up their bankroll because high rollers are businessman and wealthy individuals.

This is apparently a cause of your either greeds or struggling with your gambling emotions where you are not contently satisfied by your own intentions so, you decides to adopt the strategies of others hoping it would render you a better different comparing to your own self being.
