Topic: Do you pay attention on other people bet and it amount, and does it affect you? - page 9. (Read 1311 times)

For the problem of betting in gambling I don't pay much attention to it because I focus on what I do in my bets because after all I depend on our ability to bet so instead of being busy taking care of other people's bets it would be better to focus on the amount of my own bets.

Because the risk is certainly a little bigger if referring to the amount of other people's bets for example if it is bigger then when we want to do the same thing we are actually burdened with the amount we bet so I prefer to bet according to my will and desire because that is the ability I have in a bet.
Even though sometimes there are things that might be pursued such as competitions for wagers but if it's not possible to do that I won't push too hard.

We are not financially equal, so don't expect people to wager the same amount. I have seen some players that I do feel like if I win the amounts they stake on games, I wouldn't stress myself with gambling, they stake high figure in 6 digits to win millions and what's more sweet about these guys is that they are good at winning millions, that makes me to even envy them more because they are good at what they do and they don't fear losing the amounts or maybe it's because I see them use big amounts.

What I don't feel is their impact on me, whatever you chose to do and how much you wish to bets, they it's your choice and I don't feel influence to do the same because I don't even have that amount in the first place and if want to bet with little I have to lose, I may not win anything because the more you greed to win more the more you loss because you are increasing your risk of winning, that's more chance of you losing.

I do pay attention alot to people's stakes on a particular prediction - I did that everytime when I wagered system games for customers...be it virtual games or sport betting. For every game I staked, I try as much as possible to see if the desired amount correlates with the total odds.. seen some weird stakes over the years though - it mostly comes from aged people... "Once, A man walked in and asked me to scan through a code.. I did and it showed up with just a single game and then he asked me to stake what's directly equivalent to 5 dollars innit." I did but it didn't go too well for him..lol

it doesn't necessarily affect me since I don't gamble... I only did for others and I do make predictions too.

Every day, many people probably win bets and many people experience fatigue. Personally, I also feel tempted when someone near me gets a big win, which sometimes forces me to make another deposit and try my luck again. And as a result I only got another defeat. Winnings obtained by other people can indeed influence our behavior in gambling to a small extent.

However, when we talk about betting and gambling, we are talking about possibilities. And after I kept losing over and over again, because I was tempted by other people's wins. I think this is more than enough, I have to go back to the original bet, play in a controlled manner and only make one deposit each time I bet, regardless of the result of winning or losing. And I will only apply a strategy to achieve that victory, a strategy that I already understand, because after repeatedly using the same strategy as other people, I only get a defeat.
I will return to the original rules, because if I am too ambitious to get a win like other people get, this will only encourage me to behave recklessly and make me lose even more.

Rarely, I mean when something major happens I do pay attention to it, not that it really impacts the way I gamble, it doesn't really matter to me, but as long as there is something major, I do try to look at it and feel happy about the guy and try to imagine what would I do if it happened to me.

The other day there was a guy who bet 50 bucks and earned 42 million! dollars, that is insane amount of money, 42 million dollars is the type of money that puts you in the richest 1% of the whole world, it's insane to think about having that much money. Did it change the way I gamble? It did not, I always gamble the same way and I did so after that too, but I can't deny that I didn't day dream about having that kind of money one day, it would be something surreal even when you see the money itself.

I think the situation has a pretty big influence on this issue, when one of your friends is betting at the same time as you and they get a big win then I think it's quite natural if you feel like increasing the number of multipliers in order to get the same win, we are humans usually have the nature of envy and this happens when you are in a situation like that. On the other hand, what is actually more advisable is as you said that we should not follow what others do because you are involved in gambling activities where there is absolutely no certainty and guarantee of any victory.

After all in gambling everyone has a different fate, meaning that the victory achieved by others is very unlikely to happen in terms of victory to you and vice versa because after all gambling is nothing more than a game of "possibilities" that can not necessarily happen, and the advice is to remain yourself and have a good responsibility by only putting the amount you can afford to be responsible for, logically other people will not care about the adverse effects that you experience in gambling activities and you also cannot blame anyone at all, so it's better to do it yourself without following what others do.

No. I do prefer to focus on my own bet than other people.
It's easy to get distracted by other gamblers who may be betting with more money and winning. However, trying to copy their betting may lead you to make reckless bets and lose focus on your own game. You see, you're starting to think about betting more than you usually do. Instead of copying or watching other gamblers, it's best to stick to your own strategy and focus on trying to win. Even if you only make a few bets, winning consistently is better than losing your money by trying to imitate others.

You simply have to gamble responsibly, you are looking at another guy stake so much money and you are imagining if you can do the same, remember you don't know who that guy is, you don't know how much he earns or how much he is worth, you don't even know if he is just an irresponsible gambler. It is worth mentioning that you should gamble with only money you can afford to lose, don't look at what others are doing, look at yourself only.

One thing I don't support is for you to stake higher because you see another gambler that staked high and win high.
Why I do not support such idea is because you really don't know if the other gambler have more money than you, so even if he lose the game he will not be worried.
However, all gamblers have their own way of gambling, just like how your predictions might not be the same as the other gambler, so when you stake high and the other gambler stake low he might still win. One thing I know of is that once you have luck in betting there is no how you will not win a bet.
Although, I don't have such intentions to stake high just because some gamblers are staking higher and winning higher, if I do, that will make me not to manage my bank roll carefully.

It is normal to monitor other people's games or wins especially when you are in a physical casino. In some cases, you wish it was you who won big and in other times you are grateful that it was not you who experienced a big loss. This behaviour is normal until it gets to a point where you envy people for winning. There is no need to wish to be in the shoes of any gambler because they took the risk and that day was the lucky day. I usually take solace in the fact that I might be lucky in future. So I usually celebrate with people who win big and in some cases, we celebrate by drinking together. We have to know that gambling is a personal adventure, hence we should focus on ourselves alone.    

You win gambling when you don't even expect. Their are people that use big amount and will still and their people that will use small money and they will still lose its luck the only thing is that while gambling you should make sure that you use a reasonable amount of money so that the bettor won't gamble away all the funds they have made. I know that feeling of not feeling comfortable with how some people gamble constantly. Your chances of not been influenced is small. So the best thing is to stick to your on way of doing your thing don't copy anybody while gambling because we all have different luck and I bet you don't want to end up been an addict. Don't allow people's win to be a motivation for you just do your thing slowly the way you want it. It is good you don't even pay attention.
Jealousy is evil and will lead many people to destruction. Because you will continually envy other people's wins, which may lead to severe gambling, and if somebody becomes hooked, it will be disastrous. Because those who are currently addicted will not do anything reasonable for themselves. And will those who are married suffer as well? How can their families cope with such a situation where any tiny amount of money must be spent on gambling. If you even study tactics some individuals use when gambling will be helpful but don't replicate their gambling habits. It is not a terrible idea to explore different tactics.

No not really, I do enjoy watching other people gamble and it's pretty common for me. For example, I can spend a whole night watching other people play poker without gambling myself. Same goes for roulette, when I go visit the local casino with my friends and I have a unlucky start where I quickly blow through my bankroll at the blackjack Tablette. I don't want to ruin a night out just because I am broke and I only bring cash with me for gambling. The only alternative then is to enjoy the cheap alcohol and watch other people gamble. Especially at the roulette table there is usually such a wide range of people from all age categories, I enjoy myself a lot. Seeing someone make a bet usually doesn't make me feel anything, if he wins then I am not jealous about the money, because I know he had to take risk of losing to get there. And if he loses his money than I am not feeling bad for him, it's part of the game and everybody loses from time to time.

in my case I don't look at bets that other people make, that's because I prefer to do things my own way, in the past I went to see bets made by other people and tried copying what they had bet and the result was that I lost my bet, I even at that time started to wonder how the hell certain people put a lot of money into a bet where, if they analyzed it well, it was obvious that they would lose the bet. So I concluded that the best thing was for me to choose the game myself, to analyze the game myself and to bet on that game in which I personally analyzed it without depending on other people. This gave me the freedom to make my own choices and take responsibility when I don't get my bet right

In my opinion, people always need to prioritize knowing how to analyze games personally without being dependent on other people, because when people start to become dependent on other people to place bets or to choose a game, then these people put themselves in a position where If their source of knowledge, which in this case is the person who does the analysis, gets sick or gives up gambling, then this person who has always placed bets relying on other people starts to get desperate, because they don't know how to analyze games on their own. . That's why my advice is the following: even if it is very difficult, even if there is a great risk of losing money, the person should still learn to analyze games personally, still the person should choose the games based on their own opinion and don't copy anyone

For sure, we cannot follow other gamblers who are betting with higher amounts but we can place the same bet with less money ? Can't we?

This is what most people do when they watch the streamer's online gambling in front of the screen and they try to copy them. Just like we have copy trade, there can be unofficial copy bet features (though I have not seen it on any gambling site).

Yes, I think everyone should have their own monetary strategy and they should not copy other people in those terms. Some rich people can gamble with big money and this means that if they win, they would also get large amounts of money. If we try to repeat the same bet with similar money, it will disturb our finances and we may be over positioned in our gambling.

A situation and feeling that is normal for us to experience as you say in this post, especially if at the same time we experience the opposite. I mean, while we see other people's gambling with wins, while we experience losses. the feeling of wanting to do the same thing often crosses our minds, and we can even be tempted to do more than that, even if we are able. but if not, it means it's just wishful thinking. in this situation, usually you will try to follow the gambling they are doing. but in each case, it doesn't actually have to be the same specific. well, that's why I said that actually things like that can affect us. or, it could be the other way around. the point is, what you feel is normal.

To be honest, I rarely pay attention to how other people bet.nexcept for watching the streamers' broadcasts, that's only a glimpse. but sometimes, we like to gamble with friends in our free time. in this context, I am speaking in the past. when my friend wins, I also feel the same feeling you experienced. sometimes, we are tempted and even make unusual bets. I mean, you and I can bet on big bets without thinking it through carefully. but apart from all that, self-control is an idea that we can develop to control emotions such as anger, greed and excessive desire.

Another poison that is combined with jealousy is that we constantly learn other people's strategies, I do not deny that it is not good to be aware of new things and improve ourselves but this awareness should really be less applied in gambling because other people are also scouting the path, they don't have consistent strategies and what's more, this maze changes its exit every time. Paying attention to others will make ourselves an experiment and no experiment is too cheap, sometimes going bankrupt is not enough to make a successful experiment.

Sometimes I'm interested in looking at the bets of professionals. I devote very little time to this. It's another matter if a player devotes a lot of time to this, because it brings almost no value and does not develop us as a person. Even if we found out that someone is betting a lot, our life will not change at all, and sometimes we can even ruin our mood by doing this, although the other player’s bet was fake and not real. Still, we need to spend our time on what will really change our lives for the better, and not on this. I also advise other players to focus on themselves and their bets and strategies, not on others.

It won't affect me because it's impossible to follow other people's bets in large numbers and then I follow them, which is the silly behavior I mentioned.

Often see gambling streamers playing slots, crashes, plinko with large bets at first they did lose but with the third time betting they won big, for me this will not be strange they often publish wins while losing streaks are unlikely to be uploaded in the video.

But if you look at it in a different way other users then it still won't affect because they know there is a limit where gambling should not be bigger depending on our bankroll that they have, if they bet big then the capital is big, if we are small bankroll don't follow other people's bets.

I used to follow high rollers in sportsbooks, and I got lucky that he was winning the bets i've followed and continued doing it until my luck fell off. I only follow what they bet, and the betting size i'll pick depends on how confident I am at the time because it might look big for us, but to them, it's probably not much when there are gamblers that can afford to place hundreds of those big bets. It's more like i've followed them because of the desperation to win than feeling the need to go big together with them.

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.
