investing in crypto is also another alternative when you really lose at gambling you should look for other alternatives to look for ways to get capital money back from that alternative because if gambling continues you will continue to experience losing even more money, so there must be other alternatives to make up for the previous loss . although gambling and investing are not much different.

The story of OP's friend is a reason for all gamblers to think. Is it worth spending your money anywhere if you can manage it differently?

Imho, instead of spending money on gambling, I would rather invest it in some altcoins (and even better btc). Reliable and proven, which can bring profitability. This will be better than betting, which will be much less likely to win.

I am aware that investing will not have the excitement and drive that is present in gambling. Then it turns out that people pay for the pleasure of the game in their own way, and the ghostly probability of winning is just a bonus? It turns out that you need to separate investment (the desire to increase money) from entertainment (the desire to enjoy the game with a low probability of increasing money).

With this, I wondered if other person's here in the forum that are into gambling too has at any point in time thought or felt that way, particularly when the losses are becoming overwhelming. And in that case, should such person stop gambling and rather divert such monies into something else since he/she ain't making corresponding wins or more, checking his bet history, Or he should carry on with hopes that winnings will start creeping in someday gradually?

But then he asked me' bro assuming I had gathered all these money I have lost through gambling and channeled it into some sort of a little business or project, wouldn't it have been better!

that's what you would call luck is also in play on this betting game. despite all your efforts of researching about the sports, athletes and all the news that comes with it. and your old knowledge about it, still you will miss some of your bets. because in every match or game, you won't know how the athlete will perform inside the field. this is where you are blind. you will only know his or their capabilities once they are playing. sometimes you will only learn about their injuries after the game is over.
and that is why you called it prediction because if you are 100% sure, then, that's not prediction anymore.

Gambling is for the strong and sturdy.
 I got this caption based on what happened when I visited an old friend of mine as it's been long since we saw, and so, after a little time out together with random discussions I discovered a sudden change in his mood while we're still chatting. With a steady look on his phone in his hands for about a minute or more as he scrolled up and down the phone screen repeatedly he shrouded his shoulders with a simultaneous regrettable look all over his face.
I took the phone from him only to learn that my friend has been calculating the whole series of losses he has made from all the bets he has placed from one of the gambling site he patronize. He had made a multiples of losses in almost all the games he had placed bet on  right from the start of this year, even to the current bet of that very day.

But then he asked me' bro assuming I had gathered all these money I have lost through gambling and channeled it into some sort of a little business or project, wouldn't it have been better!  At that moment I never knew the exact word to give to him as I never expected such deep a question, for the least I replied him was "hmm I can't really say".

Should I say there is positive regret and negative regret. If you regret and do not think of anything bad like killing yourself, but believing that there is still hope for you that you can start new and be a better person, that kind of regret is good because it is like a mad person that has finally realized that he is mad and getting to his right state of mind back. Those that see gambling as a way they think they can make daily, weekly or monthly income are like a mad person. He has realized his mistake, this can help him against gambling addiction that put him into trouble.

Your friend just needs some rest. He must be stressed out with all his losses and it is clouding his mind now. Perhaps regrets are sinking into him and it's not good mentally.

Some time is given in for deep research connecting various nods to make a prediction that is near accurate but still depends largely on luck and chances, which is why prediction become a popular phrase in sports betting and other sporting events.

-in most cases predictions never work even if one consults tons of sources through research.

Predictions do not work most of the time. The name says it all. In order to be successful predicting sports you have to put in the time and effort along with doing tons of research to give yourself the best chance to be correct on your prediction.
