Well if you must know, here in our country our funerals are supervised by someone or family members 24/7. This funeral lasts for 3 days usually and can go up to 7 days. Of course, the people supervising the deceased would rotate and let someone else take over but it is important to note that we can't fall asleep during our time to supervise. In result, we have found a way to stay awake and remain alert which is to gamble.

Some researchers also have said that it is a way to honor the dead. Placing bets means attracting more people and therefore having more mourners in the wake. The time that I wrote this post I actually did not think it would be so surprising for a lot of people. But this is a superstition that has turned into a tradition so I am already used to it.

to not fall asleep I think there are still many things that can be done, such as playing traditional games such as chess or others, I myself often play cards with my friends and do not involve money in the game, even though it is a gambling game but if there is nothing at stake I think it is safe. moreover when we stay awake to not fall asleep by gambling will it last long? I don't think there is a guarantee that it can last long, the possibility that the balance we have can run out in the near future right?

Seriously is that a way to respect the dead? wow I just found out about that. Although it might be a normal thing to do in your country, but in my country it sounds unreasonable but indeed everyone has their own way, but I myself will not gamble when there is a funeral because the position there is a situation of mourning, and if I gamble it seems like I don't respect the funeral.

This is the first time that I have heard that people gamble on funerals. It's a shame though. Why would anybody do it ?
I only gamble when I am in the mood to have fun and enjoy my lesiure time.
Most of the time I am busy working but when I do get the time to gamble, I enjoy it well.

Personally I don’t think it’s a good idea to use gambling as a coping mechanism especially that your emotions will be the one driving your decisions and that almost never end well. It’s fine sometimes but I find that dealing with your emotions especially negative ones can be much helpful than turning into potentially harmful vices.

But What about you? Do you also use gambling to escape from stress of the real world?

To be honest, this is the first time I read about people gambling at funerals. No, in my country there is no such event to escape from the reality of the events. If people start gambling, it will be disrespectful in full and will look so wild that they might be considered crazy. I am still surprised by this fact. I didn’t think that I could be surprised by anything else, but here it is... It’s even a little strange to see this in the modern world. Naturally, I understand and respect the traditions of different nations.

Yes, it is very common in my country that whenever there is a funeral there will be people playing cards and gambling against each other.

But What about you? Do you also use gambling to escape from stress of the real world?

Whatt are you for sure because this kinda odd in my opinion especially play game at funeral what country are u living frenn. Because gambling in my country Indonesia is illegal so people don't do gamble in plain public sight they do gamble in a quiet place when only some people know little about.

Because id you do gamble and police know you will rekt. haha

Gambling as an escape sometime but I just watch because when I stress It will become hard for my mind to control my emotion so its not a good choice

You can't generalized mate, there are countries that could have this as their tradition, so you can't blame them.

Just read it here:

Quote

In the Philippines, gambling is not just a pastime, but a way to honor the dead. Betting games, mah jong, and card tables are often set up at Filipino wakes, or paglalamay, where the tradition is to keep a 24-hour vigil over the deceased until the burial. Making wagers at games such as "sakla", the Philippine version of Spanish tarot cards, is particularly common at wakes, because the family of the deceased gets a share of the winnings to help cover funeral expenses.[42]

“It has its functions, it is a way of keeping mourners around,” Randolf David, a sociology professor at the University of the Philippines, told Reuters. Businesses dedicated to operating these games go from one wake to another, David said. He added that small syndicates often operate such games, moving from one wake to another.[43]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling_in_the_Philippines

So for them it's not disrespect, but a way to honor the person and specially if the person is poor, they can get some money from the result of gambling itself as they can get some from those gamblers specially the one that won.

This is crazy to me and I will never regard gambling as a way of mourning the dead or rather as a means of raising funds for the dead. What if during the cause of the gambling, the gamblers involve in fights, isn't it burdening to you? There should always be a better way of making a befitting funeral for the dead but count gambling out of it. This is similar to people who drink alcohols and get themselves heavily drunk in the name of wake keeping? I don't think any right minded person won't regard this kind of honor.

The fact that the Philippines are practicing this does not justify the reason why we should make it right. Even though whenever we come up with discussions like this, people quickly mention utterances such as they are entitled to their lifestyles or culture. That it is their tradition to do so does not still make it right to me. There are always better ways to mourning the dead.

What a weird way to mourn the dead. I mean talk about how there is a near certain possibility that you’re going to make a bad situation much worse and potentially make the loss so much greater if they’re on a losing streak. I guess though if they win a lot of money and one of the family members pays for all of the funeral costs and throws a banger that would be cool way to end tho too. I mean if it went that way it doesn’t sound so bad then, right? 😂

I don’t know if this is common in other countries but I never really thought twice of the fact that gambling, which is usually associated with time for pleasure, can be found in a place that is so grievous.

I researched just now and found that some gamblers do in fact use gambling as a form of escape from their real life. Which is why you might find a lot of people just recently went through a divorce or death of a loved one gambling. I guess this is why there are always people gambling in funerals. Obviously over time I think it just became more of a tradition rather than an actual act of escape from mourning.

I have never had to behold such sight, where people who came to grieve the death of a loved one would turn out gambling amongst themselves. I don’t doubt that it could happen but, I’ve never behold such sight or had such experience. The culture is different here man, though, the fact that there is a gathering and people have got to argue about something, it’s very possible that they would have to gamble.

Gambling as an escape, well, people do seek temporary escape from certain realities of their lives through series of activities but, gambling is hardly one of them. What you might find people doing the most in these times is drinking. Gambling only happens to be one of the activities in places where drinks are served and as such, you find these individuals gambling.

Gambling in a funeral event is the most insensitive thing one could ever do to me honestly. How can I even imagine that happening. There should always be limit to things we do in life and time for everything. You cannot come and be gambling when you're meant to mourn the dead like what's this?

Gambling is not a bad thing persay but the way people go about it is the most horrific. Gambling during burials or working in a workplace isn't a good practice.

It will never make you eliminate your problem but can only make you forget it for the few minutes or hours that you have been gambling, as you stop so will your problems come back and it make you go back to gambling just as it does to alcoholic and drugs addict. Anything that can get addictive that some people use in an attempt to forget their problem, it kills them or make the problem worse because you then have another problem which is the addiction and that makes you to lose money more than anything else. Problems should be solved when they come around because that is the only way that you can get passed that problem. Gambling or doing any other activities to to try to avoid the problem is not going to help you.

Many people just don't see it this way; they just think problems can be taken away by introducing another problem to themselves, just like using another form of addiction to quench an already existing one.

If only some people could realise that gambling doesn't solve problems and they were never meant to solve any problems, then they would have fewer problems compared to what they are already facing in life.

No one can tell me that those guys are gambling for fun , because that's the wrong time to think of gambling, and many of you still keep complaining on how you lose a certain amount of money through gambling, mean while you are abusing the means.

Like I usually said gambling is made for fun and entertainment not something that will give you easy money or get on the top within a night, try other sources of you're finding means to earn bucks because gambling is not that means you should focus on , rather something you do to while away time or in your free time .

These are some mind blowing things you have said, like a burial? Just wow. Maybe it makes people forget things, chear their sorrow and makes them forget about the dead but if anyone should tried such here, they will see you as an enemy and some one that doesn't has regard for the dead but looking at it from your angle, it's something that can take away people's pain and sorrow, you wouldn't even know how fast you are engage in it.

Generally here, gambling is more of a business for some many people, I think the escape here is that it helps people escape poverty. When people are pushed with life challenges, no job opportunities, no ways to make money, the turn their passion into making money, gambling becomes the only way to make money and nothing else matters to them. Some make it though and the rest lose to the casino anytime they tried no matter how smarter you are in it.

One of the biggest misconceptions of a gambler is that gambling is the only possible income. Gambling is designed for a small percentage of players to win, and the rest pay for their winnings and operating costs of the gambling site with the money they lose. If a person has a desire to make money, he will find a way out of any situation. An excellent example of such aspiration are hundreds and thousands of Nigerians and other people from poor countries who risk their lives to move to Europe in order to earn and feed their families.

Sorry if I have to say it so directly, but in my opinion this is absolute nonsense. In 99.9% of cases, gambling is not a way out of poverty but a driver further into poverty, because purely for statistical reasons (house edge, ...) a gambler will lose money over time.

Gambling must always be seen for what it is: a (for me very great) form of entertainment. People spend money on all kinds of things, e.g. going to the movies, eating out or going to the soccer stadium. Gambling is on exactly the same level. You spend money to be entertained and, ideally, you're lucky enough to get some money back.

However, assuming that gambling will make you rich is absolutely dangerous and will most likely lead to addiction, as you will bitterly try to achieve this goal.

I am sure, gambling as an escape does not make you eliminate problems, but will only add problems for yourself. Moreover, if you experience consecutive defeats then it will make your stress worse because you continue to get pressure that will basically torture your own life. Thus, it would be better to gamble only with a good mood, or just to fill your free time, because at least gambling is a game with full risk so it requires a good atmosphere and focus when doing it..

It will never make you eliminate your problem but can only make you forget it for the few minutes or hours that you have been gambling, as you stop so will your problems come back and it make you go back to gambling just as it does to alcoholic and drugs addict.

Problems should be solved when they come around because that is the only way that you can get passed that problem. Gambling or doing any other activities to to try to avoid the problem is not going to help you.

I would rather say that problems should be faced as they come, faced and look for possible solutions rather than trying to run away or forget about it, this is because not all problems can be solved immediately as they come.

But on the other hand though, using gambling as a means of forgetting or getting over certain situations in life is a big mistake if I'm asked, because like we all know, gambling is super addictive and there is the chances that in the process of one using gambling to try to forget about a problem, they could get themself into a much bigger problem simply by getting addicted to it.

There are much better ways of temporary getting over problems that is much better than gambling, and one of such is going out and having fun with friends.

It feels contradictory if someone gambles at a funeral. And funerals are synonymous with sadness because there are family members who have left them forever who must be respected and encouraged to stay strong and also accept the departure of the deceased family member.

And I also gamble in my spare time especially on weekends after I feel tired of working from Monday to Friday and that too if I have the urge to gamble, and gamble just for fun or entertainment just spending a few dollars to enjoy the gambling game that I like.

But at least, as long as you can do it comfortably, then maybe it won't be a problem for your daily life.

In fact, if there are problems, it is better to find a solution to them, rather than look for a way to avoid them. After gambling, these problems will not go away and you will again need to look for a way to distract yourself from them, and gambling in a state where you can be distracted by other problems is also not the best solution, being distracted by gambling does not mean completely forgetting about the problems.

Running away from problems has been the most regular approach by most persons and that is why they mostly result to gambling and use the term gambling for fun, maybe that way they get to probably forget their issues especially when they are gambling, at that point they get distracted till they are done but its never the best approach as it will always a wrong approach as after the temporary distraction you come back to meet your problems.
