In social medias, mostly the winner donates all to charity because they're already rich and they're doing it for fun. I think it's make sense because the smallest bonus aka "loser" is already not as happy as the winner, but he also need to donates all to charity, how the "loser" will be happy for doing that?

Some religions like mine don't accept the public display of your giving.
Yes you are correct because in most of the religion it's highly frown and if spotted out on public there are some penalty to face.
They can give excuses like "it's not for attention, but it's to encourage people doing good deeds, even I earn money by posting this video, I will spend more money to help charity", after that they will shut up.

I have watched lot of video I mean FB/IG videos and youtube videos were people are doing charity by giving people money and showing all kind of love to another while they kept recoding it and post online, to me it seems that it's the easiest way to boost their channels and get more likes since most people are active on social to ease away stress and pains after a very stressful day.
These days you don't know what to believe on social media. The majority of what goes on there is staged and monetised. Some religions like mine don't accept the public display of your giving.

But these days I don't know what really eating up youtube because there are lot incompetent people who are just making irrelevant videos in order to attract people attention to gain viewers and follower (subscribers).

I totally agree. It's crazy what content such a concept produces.
And the most absurd thing is that it works.

In my environment there are many of my friends who gamble online, and of course there are some of my friends who can get quite big wins from gambling. When I or my friends win, there will be a division that is done, for example when I win $ 200 and my friends who are next to me are two people, then I will share it with each getting the same amount like $ 40. that's what I do and my friends do when they win, and I think something like this is included in donations. Although sometimes it is not mandatory, sharing is fun as long as we are able to do it ourselves, I mean don't force yourself to do something like this, if you are not able to do it, you should not do it.
Giving to friends and family members after a win is a good move. But this shouldn't be a compulsory act. You might have lost for a long period before getting a win. That win might not be up to the amount you have lost. So I might decide not to give anybody a dime because I am just recovering my losses. Giving should be a freewill activity and shouldn't be done under pressure.

This is only a marketing move, just like that, he ended like the good guy, but the reality is that he just use the charity to promote his channel and get subs, which is a cruel move, but it works.

If he really antes to do a charity move, the he would donate the bonus buy money to the charity, and not risk the money on gambling.
Truly, that's most of the cases right now. Using charities to boost the number of subscribers, views, and likes. Well, people can get easily affected by such a kind move but I disagree with showing it to the people by means of videos or photos.
I have heard this many times "If you want to help, you don't need to record it.". I strongly agree with that kind of belief because there are people now who are only using those kinds of things for their own profit.
Still, it looks to me like both father and son do want to help because the Dad said that his Pops was involved in that charity for a long time so I guess they are just continuing what he started.
Using gambling though, I don't know if that's a good idea.

For me, I believe that one must be satisfied first before they can give to another person. If, for example, you have one loaf of bread and you're hungry and someone asks you for your bread, knowing how hungry you are, you cannot give out all your loaf to that person, but you can offer to share it with the person. That's an act of kindness. Kindness is not when one gives out everything they have for charity sake, while they actually need part of that thing to survive. You can give when you still have the one to depend on. 
Sharing food and money you can not express in the same way. For food, you can share a small portion of yourself but for the money you may win a small amount of you or a handsome amount but that might not be satisfactory to you so there is no way to make others happy. If you consider it as contributing as a human being then I do not think it is in gambling. In gambling every person is too much hungry which can't be filled up so there is no way to think about others.

It's interesting for streamers to donate money from their gambling sessions when there is extra income being made through the traffic generated by the video. The reality is that for anonymous gamblers it will be too expensive to gamble and still donate their winnings, because as we know, most gamblers lost the more they play. And on their case, there won't be any side income being made simultaneously to maintain the charity and gambling going on.

In my opinion, you should only donate if you truly wish to do it from the bottom of your heart. And in case you do so, keep it for yourself. Nobody else needs to know you are donating, but you. If charity is done with personal promotion purposes in mind, it loses all its genuine meaning. Unfortunatelly, many people use charity to manipulate and delude the audience on the internet nowadays.

This is the reality with content creators these days. We can’t be certain with their genuineness since all are like being staged and just to show to the viewers how good they are, for the sake of more views and subscriptions. To be honest, charity works can still be possible even with a small amount, that is if you really have pure intention to donate. But if your main purpose is to fulfill your self desires and interest, and you are just using charity work to make it appealing, well obviously it won’t still work in the end.

I believe there are some gamblers and high stake accounts already donating to charity, even some casinos are announcing time to time this great initiation.
I also believe that.

Those accounts that don't even announce their charity works and are only to donate to the less fortunate and charities that they want to support.

It’s even better if they allow this to gamblers, the same as the vault feature but this one would go to charities.
It is better for the gamblers to do their own initiatives and find the charity that they like to support instead of the casino.

I totally agree with you with your last statement: gambling and whatever winning that can be gotten from it is never enough for anyone, just as someone can never be too satisfied with how much they have; no matter how much they have, they will still be looking for ways to get more. That's just how gambling is: you win today and you still wish to win more and more to add to what you have gotten.

Finally something different and really useful for the needy people and for a good cause, where some people are wasting their small bonus gains or even the small balance when they lose most of their money on a session. I also thought about a direct feature related to your casino account where you can move a part of your balance to charities without having to withdraw it, I believe a straight feature will help a lot to avoid spending those small bonuses into something where you eventually lose everything.

I watched a YouTube video where the father and son had a slot betting competition. The rule was simple- the individual with the biggest bonus wins while the individual with the smallest bonus will have to donate all of it to their favorite charity which the family has been involved in. I liked the idea gambling and donating to charity for a good cause. I have hardly heard of gamblers doing something exactly like this. Do you think this is the kind of competition you will like to get involved in knowing that even your smallest bonus wins will all be given to charity and you'll have nothing left?

The notion that you can be satisfied even if you lose because the money will go to a good cause is imputed, knowing the money isn’t going to waste. It can’t be denied that deciding to enter a competition in this way depends on the desire to gamble from the perspective of more relaxed view and not only personal winnings.

Many people may find it fun to participate, ...fun to participate, especially if they are comfortable with the idea that even if they lose, the money will go to a good cause. However, at the same time, there is also a risk factor, namely that you have to be prepared to lose everything. This can be challenging for those who are more profit-oriented.

On the whole, it’s quite a creative approach and can be fun, especially if one is more interested in the charitable aspect than in what he himself gains from the experience. Perhaps competitions like this might also transform people's perspectives on gambling, rendering it more solemn and meaningful.

It's quite an interesting game. I think the father and son was really gambling for fun and decided the outcome would be to remit to the charity homes to profit from the wagers.
The truth is that before the family can come to such competition, they've actually made up their mind to fund the charity home rather they want to make funs out of it and they must have be cheerful givers because it's not easy to give your lil bonus out when it was supposed to be counted as your profits.
I'd really love to play this game maybe I'd negotiate it with my best friend.

I just watched the video on YouTube and also skimmed through the videos on the channel. Here’s what I observed from the whole thing:

  • The man/father in the video is Vegas Matt, a professional gambler who made his fortune from high stake gambling. His YouTube channel is gambling advice on his YouTube channel and makes videos where he reviews slot games. The YouTube channel currently has about 670k subscribers which means a lot of people listen to this man making him one of the big social media influencers in gambling.
    Read more here.



  • Like most social media influencers they always selling you something. In this video, the pair were subtly asking for donations to their charity organization. They even had the links of the organization and their merch shop in the video description. Though the son was the loser of the competition and had to donate his money to the organization. I think it is worth it because they knew the videos is going to go viral and give them more subscribers. The YouTuber, Mr Beast uses the same strategy too.

I don't know what sort of predicaments they were already so, for that reason, I can't conclude.... I can't accept a thing like that unless I don't have any urgent need for cash. What about the cases that a person needs to rescue their love ones from the police custody/ a life threatening situation?.. man's want is insatiable! 

It could prolly be something that looks pretty much easy when the winnings haven't been made yet, but if it eventually cuts, the table turns.

There are people who finds peace, happiness doing charity works, just like some rich people, most of them didn't become rich through the help of anyone but they love to help others. IMO it's only the poor that doesn't care for the needy because they felt like they don't have enough to give. In this case of the loser to give to the charity, it's a kind of thing I say they do it intentionally, one who don't have money can not play such a game. Imagine if you gamble because you want to make profit and you bet on this kind of game and lose, were will you get from and donate to charity? IMO, low salary earners can not bet on this kind of games.
But I see this not just as donation. I see it as also looking for more ways to earn money through YouTube. The video has over 420 thousand views already. Although, charity and donation is good. But in the process of looking for ways to give to the needy, they are also having ways to receive money through ads when more people are watching their YouTube videos.

I think the basic essence of what makes us  human is that ability to actually care about the people we actually love and sometimes we get to do this the wrong way. There are so many persons that would have argued that this particular thought of giving even when you are completely inconveniencing yourself is actually a bad idea because it doesn't make sense but some moral teaching in some believe system deem it right to actually do something like that even when you are not having enough.

It's like you said, not too many gamblers will do such a thing. Maybe the rich one. Most gamblers are gambling trying to make a fortune out of those bonuses and I don't think they will just give it out. Honestly, it might become the other way around, where they will gamble more to make more fortune.

I salute those two for doing such a thing but let's face it, not everyone will do it. They might even say it's a waste of money because they don't know if it will really be spent on charity. I won't wash my hands and say I'd do such a thing too because I won't. I am not in a position where I could just give out money while my family is hungry. As I said, this could be done by the rich people who have nothing else to do with their money.
I am sure this family is a rich people because they are youtubers and according to their youtube channel this family is quite often to share their activities while visiting the particular casinos and playing slots game with their family and i can see it that they have millions of views in their videos which automatically they can earn a lot of money from that so i am sure donate a few thousand dollars is not a big deal for them
Exactly the first thought that came to mind when I was reading the Op. Most of all these gambling win later given out to donations by gamblers are usually done by rich gamblers, and some apart from the real intent of being benevolent they could initiate the act in order to attract recognition or other benefits from the public especially when it's been dragged to social media.  I think am correct to say it's a win-win situation for both the parties involved - benefited directly while the other benefits indirectly (the million views alone is money).

Well, like I already said in my first comment, I can actually do this, but it all depends. Perhaps there's a saying that charity begins at home, which means that if someone have more than enough, they need to give to those that are lacking in their household before they can extend such charity to outsiders. For some to even be able to give to charity, they must have been successfully stable on their own before they can share with others. With that being said, there's no way one can have siblings or relatives who are suffering and would want to give to the outside world before giving to their own blood. As much as I would love to give to charity, I also want my house to be comfortable first before I can extend my helping hands to others.

About giving, the impression has common been that it's people who have a lot (rich) that are in a good position of giving to the poor. But giving is an act that comes in naturally as a lifestyle for some people with the heart of giving irrespective of how big or small of what they have. And I agree with Dr.Bitcoin_Strange that charity should always begin from our home and with close acquaintance that we know are lacking and in dire need of certain help we are capable of offering. And it's paramount never to give under compulsion or self-inconvenience.

This is really n amazing act of giving back, and the most amazing part will be with the fact that you will not be pressured gambling since you aren't doing it for yourself but for the sake.of charity, and just maybe like people will say, you may even get luckier. Most times people gamble for their selves, and that's why it becomes really difficult for them to be able to do a thing as this, it then feels like it's rare to find such, mostly gambling has been either for fun or to make some profit, gambling for charity, as a matter of fact this is even the first time I'm coming across it, so it's that rare to find but it's such an amazing idea I really welcome and would love to do if I'm opportuned.

That's fine if it's just a bonus and it will be in good cause. From what I know, most gambling institutions or companies have their own ways of giving back to the community. Whether this is content or not for individuals, it's actually a good initiative that's also touching the hearts of others. Some might find it odd because it's through gambling and they dislike that idea. But overall, you look at the good part of it if it's going to their favorite charity and it will reach the less fortunate people. While maybe few gamblers are actually doing this, I guess each of us has their own ways as well on how we're giving back to the needy ones whether they're charitable institutions or just some act of love and giving to other individuals.

The rule was simple- the individual with the biggest bonus wins while the individual with the smallest bonus will have to donate all of it to their favorite charity which the family has been involved in. I liked the idea gambling and donating to charity for a good cause. I have hardly heard of gamblers doing something exactly like this. Do you think this is the kind of competition you will like to get involved in knowing that even your smallest bonus wins will all be given to charity and you'll have nothing left?

That's a new and fresh idea, but if you look at the creator of the video, he has over 650k subscribers and over 800 videos, so he is, in fact, an influencer who needs to feed his followers with new ideas and concepts about gambling. He is actually making money coming up with these ideas and concepts.
I prefer to donate money if I win and if I have excess money from my winning, I don't want to get involved in this idea to ease up the pressure while playing.

Idea was a fun one but I think they both should give money to the charity cause I don't know, losing the bet and then ending up giving all the money you were able to come up with to someone else just rubs salt on the wound, and while I get the concept it's just something I can't get behind on fully lol. But I digress.

I have a similar thing with my friends back in the pandemic days, which is actually the reason why I gamble in the first place. So for starters, cause we're all bored and can't meet each other we devised a game where in we're all going to gamble on specific games on a particular site, back then it was roobet but we switch sites every once in a while, and from there whoever makes the highest win gets to go home with a prize pot that we all chipped some of our money into. That's a better way of doing this in my opinion, and even if we put the charity thing into the formula we can pretty much just make it so the winner gets to choose his charity of choice and we'd give it to them.

Vegas Matt has been famous since a long time ago and I admit that his contents is quite interesting to watch, and he has been a professional gambler since 90's.
The competition he did was just for content and he got money from it, so it's useless if we debate whether we need to do or take part in a competition like that.
I prefer to donate when I win big rather than doing or participating in competitions like that, unless I'm an influencer like Vegas Matt with net worth more than $50M.

This gambling style will give the loser a sense of responsibility, at least your money is being put into good use unlike the other kind of gambling where the loser loses and goes home without impacting the lives of those around him positively. Donating to charity is not entirely bad, a gambler who truly understands what it takes to show empathy to the less privileged will not feel too bad if he loses the game. I believe this condition was not imposed on any of the players, they understood clearly the terms of the game before going for it. Only those who are comfortable with this conditions will choose to gamble.

This kind of competition is not for regular gamblers, this is a unique competition with a purpose, and the purpose is more of a humanitarian service. Only those who agree with this purpose can give up their bonuses for those who need them more.

I think winning the small bonus is still the same thing as not winning because even if you win it goes back as donation to charity.
It's actually not the same mate, because such money is given to charity, it helps those kids acquire basic necessities of life, such as food and clothes, which wouldn't have been possible without an act of charity. So that's the difference.

However, it's obvious the father and Son are actually living a comfortable life, because I just made a little research about their channel, and got to know they earn roughly $131k monthly by streaming casino games on YouTube, which is quite a big money for a fancy lifestyle.

If it was something that every winner has the chance of collecting the win and the money was donated freely this is when it should be a surprise because most gamblers don't joke with their wins which they would want to use for things that means so much to them.
Yes, that's true, but in this case, I think this Dad and Son were not only able to donate the amount won to charity, but were also able to generate more funds from YouTube ads be posting this video content here, of which I'm sure with this single video, they are likely to have earned double or even triple what they gave to charity while simply having fun and recording that moment at the casino.

This competition will really good for those that are not expecting so much from gambling just incase they end up getting the small bonus. I think winning the small bonus is still the same thing as not winning because even if you win it goes back as donation to charity . This shouldn't be a surprise to you because gamblers have no choice than to donate their win.  If it was something that every winner has the chance of collecting the win and the money was donated freely this is when it should be a surprise because most gamblers don't joke with their wins which they would want to use for things that means so much to them.

It's like you said, not too many gamblers will do such a thing. Maybe the rich one. Most gamblers are gambling trying to make a fortune out of those bonuses and I don't think they will just give it out. Honestly, it might become the other way around, where they will gamble more to make more fortune.

I salute those two for doing such a thing but let's face it, not everyone will do it. They might even say it's a waste of money because they don't know if it will really be spent on charity. I won't wash my hands and say I'd do such a thing too because I won't. I am not in a position where I could just give out money while my family is hungry. As I said, this could be done by the rich people who have nothing else to do with their money.
I am sure this family is a rich people because they are youtubers and according to their youtube channel this family is quite often to share their activities while visiting the particular casinos and playing slots game with their family and i can see it that they have millions of views in their videos which automatically they can earn a lot of money from that so i am sure donate a few thousand dollars is not a big deal for them
Exactly the first thought that came to mind when I was reading the Op. Most of all these gambling win later given out to donations by gamblers are usually done by rich gamblers, and some apart from the real intent of being benevolent they could initiate the act in order to attract recognition or other benefits from the public especially when it's been dragged to social media.  I think am correct to say it's a win-win situation for both the parties involved - benefited directly while the other benefits indirectly (the million views alone is money).

I think they are just starting to make some reasons for gambling and make it somehow not negative in terms of the overall approach to gambling. Just attaching the word charity makes it even somewhat lesser evil in terms of just gambling you know. It is very popular in some countries to attach some lottery into charity as well 

I think, as long as you see the results where it is being donated, I think it is okay. We want to get Entertained that is probably why this is created.

Without this competition, it's already hard to beat the house, so having this competition make the gamblers have smaller chance to win. It's a good deed to donate your money to a charity, but actually even you didn't donate it, the casino high likely will give it to charity because they need to spend some money for social responsibility (although only regulated casinos did this).

For now I will not do it, but if I'm rich and there's nothing I want to achieve again in my life, I will do it.

Exactly, no competition no bonus and no winning so as for me since it is quite obvious that the family seems to be rich I don't see anything wrong spending the money to charity which is even my dream kind of thing to own a charity organization, it is better to do it as you might be the winner you never can tell so given a no to such competition is not a good idea, that is my opinion but yeah any one is free to contradict my opinion and comes up their own opinion as to this regards because as human we tend to have different way reacting to certain situation or condition.

It's a Father's Day celebration, but it's done that way for them. Actually, we can do anything we like, but the main goal is to donate. There's nothing extraordinary about this, and I think I could also do this if I had the money. It's a YouTube video, so most likely it's a content that will also earn them money in return, as they have a good number of subscribers—almost 700k.

Most people that play on slots and casinos in general can't have access to sponsored funds, especially sponsored funds they can decide where it gets spend too. So I'd say this isn't something that should be expected from gamblers. If people had the chance to save up for themselves, gambling and even charity donations on top I'm sure they'd do it already. After all gambling isn't guaranteed to give you profit, and if we judge by chance the most probable scenario would be that you lose, as most people do.

So if we reverse this scenario, if we like charity, it'd be nice to see some sort of casino competition where the casino itself pledges to give the rakeback to a charitable organization or something like that. The one with the certain profit would of course be good to give some back to the world. But most of the time they just don't. So good to see some people that have the money doing good but let's not expect it from everybody because many people can't afford to do it.

Many gamblers are already doing charity, however small, winning or losing, and I have friends doing that, but it's different when doing it for content just to attract more views, and those views will convert to profit; the channel is all about gambling content so I'm sure that will not going to be the last video of its kind.

You know, when you have followers, you have to feed them with new concepts and new content so they will continue to like and play those videos even if it's 30 minutes or more long.
I like the idea of giving donations to some charities out from our winnings in gambling, regardless if it's small or big amount. However, if you are still in the state of making money out from gambling just to sustain some basic needs of your family, then I don't think giving some donations would be reasonable this time. I would gladly do it maybe when I think I'm more than capable to give, even if it means giving a large portion of my winnings.

Now, this is another story already if you donate for your own content to attract more views from your audience. You might be doing a charitable work, and it's good, but it should not be just for the show to attract a lot of viewers and eventually subscribe on your channel.

People who are streaming what they are doing definitely is up for the views of their content. Of course, they do want to earn for what they are showing to their subscribers and sustain their interest. Without their followers, they won't get potential sponsorships from related companies.

If you are gambling to finance some of your charity works, people will talk and you will earn good reputation. But if you are up to the task of earning profits from what you are doing, it will also show without a doubt. You don't need to be a hypocrite to show that you care, because people will see your true colour sooner or later.

What if both participants (father and son) are losers? It may be easier to directly donate this money to charity.
Both of participants can't be losers because the rule of the game is that the person with the least amount of bonus will donate it to charity.

It’s always a good thing to donate but having the person with a smaller win donate it to charity as some sort of punishment for the loser delivers the wrong message.
No, donating to the charity is not a punishment from what I understand. From the Video, donating to that charity has been their family tradition. And from the comments section, some of their views/fans also made donation pledges too. In the end the winner with the least amount of bonus from the game would have donated more than when then the person with the highest amount of bonus donates because of the other contributions from their viewers and fans.

It is fine as long as it is okay with both parties since as I understood it, it is part of the competition or condition and for sure they both agreed to it. Of course it will always be a good thing to donate especially to rightful charities regardless if it is from gambling profit or other sources. But if this is leading to the question whether it is okay to make this a requirement then that is where problem may arise. Not all people are into charities and donations. Also, in the first plaace, it should at least be done with initiative. Those who wouldn't be okaay with doing so have their own reasons and we should respect it given that it is their money. Allow them to decide whether to donate or not unless it is agreed upon as part of the game.

Gamblers usually donate money to charity when they pray to win a jackpot and luckily win it. To be fair, instead of purely donating money to charity companies, I prefer to give money to a poor person myself. Sometimes I buy them a drink, food and rarely - clothes. I amn't a gambler but I trade sometimes and when my profit exceeds what I was expecting, I use the surplus to make some people happy for a day.

It's a good deed to donate your money to a charity, but actually even you didn't donate it, the casino high likely will give it to charity because they need to spend some money for social responsibility (although only regulated casinos did this).

That's true, casinos often donate money to charity and do some other good things that benefit society but sadly many people don't pay attention to that side of them.

I'm not the type of gambler who wants to participate in things like that, I just gamble and enjoy it, whether I lose or win, it doesn't matter to me. I wouldn't want to donate my betting money to other people, not because I'm greedy or don't have a heart, but I think that if I want to donate I would prefer to donate the money I earn from my job, not the money from gambling, because in my opinion it's just It's just unethical, yeah other people might think that I'm a hypocrite but I still stand by that position.
That's right. I like the style you are showing there. This should everybody treat gambling, not that they expect other things from it. I'm sure you guys know what I'm referring here. It's okay if the thing that they want can come from them easily but nope it doesn't and the worse is that it can make them rage and be completely negative afterwards.

I tend to disagree with your opinion when you say that donating money that came from gambling bonus is unethical. What about the wins that we get there? It should also be unethical then but nah. The word unethical will only fit if your withdrawal have came from exploits and other abusive behaviours.

This is the first time I have watched this. It's a new concept, and why not if it involves a charity and you did it with your family, It feels good to do this.

I'm checking the views. It's on its way to 500k views, and it's only been a month. The son promises to donate $4000, but will he really donate the money, or is it just for the content?
Here in our country, people are inventing content for their channels to make money; next time, they should upload a certificate of donation.

The only skeptical on this kind of content is they never show that they really donated the said amount to the charity at the end of the video. They just cash out the check and end the video saying they will donate the profit they made.

They do mention on the video about boosting the father channel with the video that makes me think this is one of the video which the influencer nowadays keep doing for the monetary purposes only. It’s will be satisfying if they will include the charity donation receipt using the amount they won to conclude their challenge.

this is the little way of spicing up things for a good cause most expecially when relating with someone that might not want to give things out willingly without attaching a clause. We've done something like that where we just bet on a novelty match in our old boys gathering and whatever comes out of it is gathered and if it's not much an additional contribution added to it and used to assist out alma mater in a project that's lacking in the school. It's a smart way to get people to do things and they will easily oblige to play the game. If they win, itw to thier favour while if they lose, they wouldn't be sad after all because the proceed of the bet actually went into a meaningful thing that has left the life of the beneficiaries better that it was before.

It seems to me that everything that is done on YouTube is done to increase views, and a plausible pretext under the guise of charity is carried out for the sake of monetization.

I believe that such YouTube channels should not be idealized as something disinterested and truly associated with charity.

That's what I thought when I first read the OP. Most probably (depending on the games they play, of course) one would win and the other lose. Chances of both winning are low and even in that case they would lose the smallest win. I agree with you that most content not only in Youtube but in other Social Media and the Internet in general is created with the only aim of increasing views, so chances are that their plan was profitable since the beginning no matter of the results of their bets.

For now I will not do it, but if I'm rich and there's nothing I want to achieve again in my life, I will do it.

I find this nonsense, tbh.

donate even small amounts to charity is always something important to do and must be always supported.
Each year I made donation of a small amount to some charity, of course these are not money come in from gambling but why not...
Well, pretty obviously that any player with gambling issue must avoid at all any similar initiative... but generally could be a nice way for doing a good action (even if this is not related to gambling).

I also donate to a charity every month, but it is independent of this nonsense. Even in my case or in the case of winning skill games it would make sense to donate a % of your net profits to the charity but in games like slots? People don't know anymore what to invent to get views on Youtube.

Do you think this is the kind of competition you will like to get involved in knowing that even your smallest bonus wins will all be given to charity and you'll have nothing left?
Well, I like the idea since it's a competition for a good cause, the challenge and excitement are real. However, for me, if you want to donate then do it because it's your own free will and not because you lose in the challenge. This might be unusual since there's a charity involve and it's a father and son competition (or bonding). However, maybe this is their way to make it more exciting knowing that there's a consequence for the one who lose the competition.


They are doing a content at the same time so they are in a win win scenario since they won the game and at the same time gain impression to their channel that possibly monetize due to the ads when I watch it.

This kind of competition is for rich since there’s no guarantee that they can both win on their turn. They are sharing a bankroll which makes this competition very risky. They are very lucky to hit a massive bonus win on their own turn because it’s very to do that with the limited spin they got due to the amount of bet they are using.

I am not that rich enough but I do encourage if they are capable of doing it, basically I am not having high hopes on charity instead I would do anything on my own or to near charity house where I can get the satisfaction of the money spent for the actual cause while internet there are lot of scammers out there in the name of charity.

I don't connect with the idea either, if you want to donate money then just go ahead and do it instead of trying your luck by betting it and give them later if it's small from other one.

I wouldn't mind at all if I knew that the amount I'm using for it is something that I can easily afford to lose, so even if I lose all the money without getting any bonus or if I win a bonus that goes to a charity, I am completely okay with it. Even if it's the other way around where the person with the highest bonus will donate their winnings to the charity, I would still not mind doing it if I'm getting the highest bonus because it's for a good cause and I believe the money that is spent for good causes isn't lost, it's money well spent.

These sort of competitions will only be conducted among people who are already fond of doing such deeds. If a person already does charity all the time, they would surely think of doing things that can increase their chances of giving more money to the charity, and this is one of those ways for them.

I would slightly change the idea of charity. There is a certain number of games played, after which a person remains in the black. It would be a good, noble act to give some of the money you win to charity. In the same way, if you are unlucky in the game for a very long time, donate some amount, because anyway, this money goes down the drain, and Lady Luck will probably not leave this good action unnoticed.

I'm not the type of gambler who wants to participate in things like that, I just gamble and enjoy it, whether I lose or win, it doesn't matter to me. I wouldn't want to donate my betting money to other people, not because I'm greedy or don't have a heart, but I think that if I want to donate I would prefer to donate the money I earn from my job, not the money from gambling, because in my opinion it's just It's just unethical, yeah other people might think that I'm a hypocrite but I still stand by that position.

This is exactly what we meant about people gambling for fun, because judging from the scenerio which surrounds this event, it clearly shows it was a Father's Day celebration between Son and Dad, who just went to a casino to just have fun together. Because if they literally were there for the money, they definitely would have cash out the $1300 they won at the beginning of the video, but rather they continue and kept gambling more. And also nice the money was donated to charity, because I didn't actually watch the entire video, I stopped half way

This type of thing should be promoted and spread a lot more. We are seeing people who keep on gambling for just personal reasons, and people who earn just for personal reasons, basically we all live for just ourselves.

However, the more we promote charities and do more for them, I think we are going to get better results in life. Remember, just you being rich or just you living a good life will never be good for you, that would mean like being the guy with a billion dollars in mars, what can you do if there is nowhere to spend it. If you however make your community better, then even if you are just an average person, it would be like living in Asgard. This is why trying to make sure that everyone is better is the way to go.

Gambling could be used for this, I mean we are talking about something that will take a while but can happen, anything could be used to promote charities, and I am all for gambling being part of it. This could be something that will not be all that easy, we need to make sure that they know which charities how much and so forth. In this case it was father and son, so it is not a big deal, but a tournament like this would be a lot harder to convince people to join all together.

If this is the only option left for gamblers then people don't mind focusing on making one of the charity houses as well it could be orphanage home or anything that has to do with charity so people gambling could always come to donate in their center, you would see this may become more of business and won't benefit the gambling companies that much because much attention has been moved away because no one would want a situation were he sent all their winning to the charity and go home with nothing, to me it makes gambling not interesting anymore.

I think this type of competitions should be ones a year and not something continually otherwise people interest towards their involvement could be drastically drift from gambling to something else, knowing too well that there is nothing in return after having giving their winning to the charity, thu it's a nice idea.

if it is a one time thing or once in a while competition, yeah why not. it's a good way to have fun and help others in the process. that being said, wouldn't it be better to have a fixed amount that will be donated to the charity and then just adding the "smallest bonus win" to it because there is a chance that the smallest bonus wins are the one that will be donated is very small.

Why the smallest. The one with the biggest amount should do that. And I will not involved in such because I like to do charity giving with my open heart and not in condition. And from my understanding of your post, the two of them were ready to do the charity work but the idea came for them to do some gambling fun before going out. And from my view point it was not a gamble but a game for fun.

Well, in such a bet, it's not as if the gambler has the option to refuse the obligation to donate their winnings to charity. The only choice they have is either to join the competition or refuse. I think most of the time we also have to do something for charitable purposes, but not all the time. So, if I accept to join such a competition, I don't mind giving off my little or huge winnings. Although it would not be all the time. I mean, sometimes, I will also have to join competitions where I can have my winning to my self.

If I don't have the money to donate to charity and I partake in such competition I will do it. Bit if I have the money to donate to charity, I don't need to gamble for that. It is good to give out to the needy but one thing that I am still thinking is that giving our gambling wins to charity is not a guarantee that we will win more.
Can someone think that if he donates to charity that he would be winning more while gambling? That is very bad kind of mindset and only the people that are addicted can think like this. As most gamblers are losing, they will not think like this. Even some people can have plans to donate, gamble but losing and making them not to donate. Gambling should be for entertainments. If I also want to donate, I do not have to gamble with the money first but donate the money directly for charity.

Also if you are gambling in a particular casino and that casino donates money to charity does not mean that you are the one that donated because it is the casino funds and not yours. Anyone money that you lose is no longer yours so let's not think that if casino donates money it is part of our money. It is when you donate from your pocket that it is your money.

Donating to the charity is something that needs to be done without directing it towards game winning. though it is another form or way of helping the charity. Another thing is that the game was not Fair in my own opinion because it would have been better if the highest winner with enough bonus will donate to the charity instead of the one with smaller bonus donating to the charity. but as the case may be it is now vise versa, but anyway it's still a good things that people would use such medium of gambling to help people. to me it's a welcome development to give game/gambling a good name and not always a bad name as they usually said.
From the OP I noticed that it's only for the fun, and my instincts tells me that the father and the son are not doing it out of greed, they are doing it for fun because donating money for Charity's is a normal thing that one can do even without including bet on it. That's why I had to say they are doing it f is r only fun purpose. Why the losers have to donate his money is just to make the game more interesting for others around to observe.

I think donation should be what is done out of volition so that the blessings of it will be received but if someone has to compete for the sake of loser donating to charity, it may not be what everyone would like to involve in. I would rather prefer to give directly to charity than giving because of gambling competition bet. Although it depends on our perception towards it but personally, giving with good heart and not because of some mandatory attachment to it would be more valuable. Like some charity homes that is built on religious tenets may not accept such donation if they get to know about how it was organised.

I liked the idea gambling and donating to charity for a good cause. I have hardly heard of gamblers doing something exactly like this.

I don't. If you want to donate to charity, it's better to save what you're going to bet and donate directly, rather than end up broke and not only unable to donate, but not even having enough for yourself, as we've seen in some cases in this section. In the end, it seems to me that people are looking for any excuse to gamble and not feel bad when they lose a lot of money.

'But... I was going to donate it! And I don't know what happened and I ended up losing all my money for the month and what I had borrowed in a quick loan.'

You could say the ratio is 1000/1, it is very rare to find gamblers or competitions like that, most gamblers are greedy and greedy, there is no absolute winnings, donating them to foundations or charities, Generally for themselves, things that happen on YouTube are an honor for them in their assessment.

To be honest, if that happened to me, I would definitely not give all my winnings to charity, maybe I would give 30% of my winnings to a foundation, it is haram for me to give money all to charity, If our family or neighbors are still in need or hungry, I might consider the family or neighbors first, then charity.

If I want to donate my money to favorite charity, I don't have to playing gambling but I will directly send my money to that charity. Playing gambling is not for that reason but if some people like that idea, that will be no problem as they have different reason to playing gambling. But if someone asks me to playing gambling because of that reason, I will say that I will gives the money and let him to send it to charity and not use that money for playing gambling.

That will cause that person doesn't have anything left because he lost his money in that competition. But if he accepts that rule, he can still playing gambling with his opponents and hopes that he can wins the biggest bonus. He can also gives the wins money to the individual with the smallest bonus and send that to their favorite charity.

Why not? Yeah, it's the very definition of gambling, but at the end of the day, their competition will result in a better way, they are going to donate to the charities that they wanted so it's all good. Maybe they are doing it for to inspire others which is good as we have seen the biggest youtuber in Mr. Beast also doing this kind of competition amongst his peers and group of friends and the winner he will donate thousands of dollars to their charity of choice. So in the end, it's a win-win situation.

And I think this father and son has a lot of money to burn though, it's not like this is their last money to gamble and loser going home empty handed or will have no money. So I don't think that you won't have to worry that they will be nothing left. As for me if I happen to lose but the money left to me is going to be donated to the less privilege, I will be ok with it.

It's not a bad idea for father and son to gamble together, as far as the son is an adult and has a job. It's part of hanging out and having fun while gambling with the amount that they can afford to loose. Donating gamble wins to charity means that the gambler is truly gambling for fun and can afford to loose the money, and if they win and donate the money there'll be no regrets or hard feelings. I consider the competition to donate to charity as a healthy competition and it will improve the bond between the two of them, I think that I can do the same thing, so far that I know that my son is a responsible adult.

Donating to people in need is a noble course. One shouldn't wait until he wins in gambling before giving to charities. So what will happen if you don't win for a long time? You might not have seen gamblers donating to charities because they do it in secret. Some religion forbids public shows of liberality.

We should also keep in mind that those people (the father and son) did that video just for the sake of content creation - if they were not into content creating do you think they would do anything like that? So it’s not always good to do comparison with people that usually go out and showcase what they have done to others just to gain more followers and views.
These days one rarely sees any real events on social media. The majority of what we watch is staged to gain viewership and make money. People do anything to create content and benefit from it. I just learn from those that are beneficial and discard the rest.

Very few gamblers can be able to do that, what most gamblers does when they win in a gambling office is just to give people around there some amount of their winnings to share among themselves then they leave the gambling hall with the rest of their winnings. It is difficult for most gamblers to donate their winnings to charity let alone agree to get involved in this kind of challenge that involves the person with the least bonus winning to give it out to charity so I see some father to son connection right there and it is clear that they gamble just for fun but those gamblers that are very inquisitive on winning and maybe used the money to sort out their livelihood will not buy this kind of idea between father and son.

It is clear that the family likes giving to charity because it only takes people that have done similar or something like that before to have that thought before they started playing and looking at the father and son, they look financially buoyant so his son giving out his bonus to charity doesn't affect them.

It seems to me a very strange idea to play gambling with my son.
I myself have tried many different gambling games, as well as betting, and I’m glad that I didn’t encounter these entertainments in childhood, because I don’t know what kind of future I could have had. It is better for children to do serious things, such as study computer science. And even though gambling with charity is described above, I don’t think this is a good idea.

It’s always a good thing to donate but having the person with a smaller win donate it to charity as some sort of punishment for the loser delivers the wrong message.

It makes it seem as if donating to charity is a bad thing. Losing the game is bad enough already and if you associate it with donating to charities then people would also feel bad donating. It’s better if donating was done willingly.

What if both participants (father and son) are losers? It may be easier to directly donate this money to charity.

It seems to me that everything that is done on YouTube is done to increase views, and a plausible pretext under the guise of charity is carried out for the sake of monetization.

I believe that such YouTube channels should not be idealized as something disinterested and truly associated with charity.

This is a good incentive to be among the winners.

If you end up a loser, the consolation will be that the prize money will go to a good cause for those in need.

Because not everyone is that kind? I personally think I wouldn't do this nor would I personally donate to a charity if ever really. If I won enough to live my life then yea sure I'd do it but with my current state? Nah. With the event doing something like this then maybe? As I've said before in this forum I don't really mind much of where my money goes when I gamble so if I do lose due to having the smaller bonus then I'd be fine ig.

If it was something like a charity tournament where I spend my own money to grow my own bank though then hell nah. Afaik this is how some streamers do their tourneys? Personally I'm just confused why in the first place they just don't donate it directly lol.

I don't know if this is for the clout only or whatever, but why do they really need to make a competition to make a donations? Why not just go directly to the charity that they want to donate, easy as that.

Of course, I will support the cause because it's good, however, I might have my doubts that this father and son are gambling and then just showing it off to get views. And we all know that there are people, ordinary individuals who go and donate with whatever amount they can to charities without going to this kind of video promotion, IMHO. My statement might be controversial though, but that's how I see it.

I can not stake my money and expects winning before I can give to the charity or neither can I engage on such competition games that if I win then I will have to give it to the charity.

So what happens when. I fail other times.
Maybe I will even loose on several time and probably if I am lucky to win, instead of me to account the winning as my recovery then I would have to give it out to the charity?
Of course not I can not do that.

Although at some point, I might personally decide that if I am lucky to win on a first or a particular round, I am either giving a specific % or 100% to the charity but I am not  taking that as competition.

This is obviously a competition with a good idea that those who win a small bonus should donate to charity, but if you have to involve your own money in a gambling competition even though the ultimate goal is good I will not participate in this contest, unless it is a slot contest with free money and who wins the money for charity maybe many people will participate.

Have your own way to donate money to charity without involving gambling, then you if you feel upset about losing a lot of money? Of course in slot games we won't win more.
And in the video with thousands of dollars of capital, I dare not do that just because money is so big for me.

Without this competition, it's already hard to beat the house, so having this competition make the gamblers have smaller chance to win. It's a good deed to donate your money to a charity, but actually even you didn't donate it, the casino high likely will give it to charity because they need to spend some money for social responsibility (although only regulated casinos did this).

For now I will not do it, but if I'm rich and there's nothing I want to achieve again in my life, I will do it.
