Topic: Gambling Streamers. Are they promoting fun or fueling addiction? - page 4. (Read 4143 times)

Yes, that's just one case and it's not always like that, or I mean not all streamers always find it easy to win, but the majority of them do more shows with various things that look very tempting, one of which is the ease of winning.

On the other hand, I don't know if what you said is true or not about some streamers who do gambling shows using real money, but what is certain is that more of them use fake money and also if it is true that they use real money then in my opinion maybe it is money that has been provided by the casino as a facility for streamers.

Yups the idea in your last paragraph is right about common sense, and I will say another reason why we should always be wise and use common sense when assessing various new things that we find, namely so that we are not wrong in concluding and making decisions, in my opinion the point is regardless of whether the streamer gambles using play money or real money, the point is if for example they gamble while doing shows and also include a site link, then that means they are doing a promotion.

If you do have a lot of suspicions like that about streamers after seeing them doing live broadcasts then maybe I would say that you have successfully used your common sense properly and correctly so that you say that what you see from what the streamers do is unreasonable. On the other hand, of course I also agree with you, because it seems very easy for streamers to get a lot of wins in just a short period of time, they are like gamblers who already have a code to crack the algorithm in each game to win, and that is very different from the reality that we experience when we gamble where defeat is much more dominant than victory, meaning I strongly agree that the ease of streamers in achieving victory occurs because of an agreement that occurs behind the scenes between the casino and the streamers.

But it is really that hard to believe that they will really be that using their own money to play gambling or doing up their job because it will really be that understandable that they do really know that they are really that dealing up with something which is really that very risky or really that relies on luck. It is really that hard to believe or something impossible that they will really be that making use of their own money which its really unbelievable. They are really that doing this job because they are really that indeed wanting to earn money on which this is really that their job on doing so and they cant be able to spend out their own money just to do their job. Its totally contradictory.

It is why we must be wise and calm down ourselves when watching an interactive videos from streamers and just consider that is an interesting videos without any intention to follow what they do. Those streamers just do what their job and we do our job which is watch the video and skip it if we thinks that the videos can make us tempt. We don't have to think what other people will do after they watch the videos because we must responsible with ourselves and not let us getting the same like them.

We don't have to think that we can win like the streamers because we are different than them. We are just people who want to search for fun and we have so many things that we can do and not just use gambling. We must thinks that we can not do the same as the streamers who can win easily on the gambling games. Their job is to tempt people with their winning so we must be careful and not follow what they do.

The streamers can get big win in their videos while we will difficult to get the same as them whether we use big money, that doesn't guarantee us to get the big win. Their videos will show their big win and makes people tempt and want to try but we must understand that is just an entertain that the streamers gives to us. We as audience must think that the streamers doing their job and we don't have to follow them especially if we just want to watch their videos.

If people can win from gambling because of following the streamers, that is because of their luck come in the right time. But they will not easily to win in the next rounds because casino will not let you win many times. It is why people must realize that when they can win big, they must stop gambling immediately and takes their win money out from the casino so they can enjoy it.

Streamers getting paid of their job but we don't get anything and just spend our money to follow their way to wins in the casino. But we will not have a big chance to win from the casino because that is what will happen to most people. So we must understand that we don't have to feel sad if we lose but we must control the losses not to become big. The win from the streamers can tempt many people to follow playing gambling but not with us because we know that the streamers win is because the casino helps them to give an interesting entertainment to the audience. That is why we must educate ourselves and realize that the reality will not as easy as we imagine so we must control ourselves when watching the videos.

Of course, there are also those who use their own real money, and maybe their main goal is to want their personal account to become popular with many people following them and becoming their followers because after that there will be benefits that they can get, but maybe with those who have a very large balance and also with a very large bet amount, not all streamers use their real money, I just can't understand why they dare to use a large bet amount and allocate a large amount of money if it is real money. In addition, you must have seen where there are streamers who put a gambling watermark on their screens besides that they provide gambling links that have been prepared for their viewers who are interested in gambling, this is one of the profit-making strategies that they do.

That is one case that we can conclude but I can also say that not all of them are like that.

There tends to be those who are real, really gambling with their real balance and not just some play money given by their sponsored casino.

We have to make our common sense so that we won't be too emotional.

Sometimes followers do Whatever it takes to gain Followers, more Audiences, or the bad thing is that many do not tell the truth and make the site's Advertising look easy to get money from them, that is what you should be most afraid of and careful about , it is very easy for them to be deceived, but those who fall the most are the people who are new to Casinos, seeing that there are so many opportunities and that an influencer bets big, many want to do the same , but it is in most cases that they fail.

Streamers are doing paid jobs and whatever they do is to please who is paying them, that is why I don't take gambling streamers too seriously, it's most probable that everything we see them do are programmed to entice more people to try out gambling. My concern is for the people that are watching them and don't know how gambling works in reality, they will think that it is a gateway to quick riches but in reality it is not. In gambling there are more loses than wins, people who don't understand this simple fact will watch streamers and jump into gambling with all their money and most probably experience more loses than wins. In the process of recovering loses they might become addicted. People who gamble needs to learn how to gamble responsibly, not getting carried away by what they watch on social media

If you can assume that the results of the victories obtained by the streamers are not real, it means that you are really able to use your common sense and rational point of view well, my friend, and that is what we should do before we make a decision as I have said above. On the other hand, what also makes me feel strange is that I have never seen a streamer who experiences defeat when they are broadcasting, 90% of them always manage to achieve big wins very easily and of course the situation is the opposite of the situation we experience when we are gambling which is actually much more defeat than victory, and from there we can actually conclude that we should be suspicious and not easily tempted by anything that seems too easy to get.

Of course, and also actually even if for example the big win is achieved by someone else and not by the streamers, or what is meant is that those who managed to get the big win are ordinary gamblers like us, then it doesn't mean that we will also be able to get results like them even if for example we gamble in the same way as they do, because after all like the concept of gambling in general that the results in the next time do not depend on the previous results.

The point is whoever manages to win especially outside of a streamer then it is a result that occurs because of luck that comes at the right time, and on the other hand what you said is true that often people think that they will also be able to get the same luck as the streamers if only they gamble on the site promoted by the streamers, when in fact it is a manipulated result, but the point is as I said before that we must always be wise when finding new things.

Being practical is a wise thing to do when you are watching streamers who's sharing their gambling  strategy, knowing that they are doing it for the sake of money that they'll going to earn, though we know that there are avid followers who can get the attention and will blindly follow those strategy we can't remove that possibilities, there are different approach and different perspectives on how they'll take what they are witnessing from streamers that they'll love to follow.

People do follow streamers are prone being caught as they might believe that the video that they are watching might also happen to them, especially those big wins, most people wanted to experienced that and they'll think that if luck permits they may have that same outcome.

The concept of gambling is to promote gambling websites. to attract people to bet on gambling websites that are essentially promoted by streamers. I'm sure streamers use accounts that have been set up by gambling companies to make them look attractive when people watch and get them interested in betting. it's true that streamers promote fun

Why would such gambler who wants to get that "thrill" again dont gamble with game money? He will get more involved in the process than just watching. Honestly, kids that used to gather around arcade machine are not the best example. They did that because they dont have alternatives. Now most of kids have their own arcade machine (gaming console), gadgets. Gamblers also have lots of alternatives, such as playing with game money, or downloading game and play unlimited (meaning they need internet connection to gamble with play money on online gambling page).

Yes, that is right so we don't take seriously of what we watch from them and consider that they doing their job to attract a weak people who will follow them to playing gambling without thinks to limit their gambling activities. A streamer will be easy to win the money because we thinks that is already set by the casino so those who watch will think that the streamer wins is because they have their luck. People will think that they also have their luck and want to follow the streamer to playing gambling but the reality will not gives the win to them but only give them lose much money. Yes, we must be smart and wise in responding what we see on social media so we can act what is need. We don't have to playing gambling like those streamers because we don't have much money and that can risk us to lose all of the money we have.

Seems this phenomenon is slowly getting out of control right ? in Romania , I can already see youtubers that are around 20 years old and switched from streaming games to streaming slots and other casino games which is pretty sad at this point because most of them are losing a big chuck of their fan base just because they got a great deal with some casinos. What is actually concerning me is that these young streamers who are doing only slot streams are having a fan base where people under 18 years old are also watching.

Gambling streamers get paid by casinos to advertise so basically they are just trying to make money but this can also be a way of fueling addiction, when people get lured and enticed by those fake wins that are being displayed they might be Tempted to give it a try. I wouldn't really say that they promote fun because it has a lot of negative impacts on people. The most affected people are those that are young, these are the Targeted audience, they are more naive and as a result of this tend to fall for these scams

You should also keep in mind people watch streamers play videogames because of the charisma of the streamer themselves as well, and not completely because the viewers cannot afford to get a copy of the game. For instance, there are games which are free to play like overwatch, Fortnite and Dota; even games which do not take much of graphical power out of a computer like Among us, the charisma and the personality of the streamer is a very important aspect of the experience when comes to both gaming streaming and also video games streaming, though understand your point when you compare gambling to videogames.
I believe those who are attracted to streamer who gamble are gamblers themselves who have run out of money already and still desire to get some kind of "thrill", so they opt to see someone else playing, it is like when children used to gather around arcade machines to see others to play when they did not have coins left to continue to have fun.
To each they own, though, I am sure of you asked several people who like streaming gambling, they would reply with different reasons they consume such content.

But even if such a thing is true when talking about gambling in the end it is not that simple because in the end this kind of thing only a small part happens for new players because it cannot be denied that almost all people who do gambling are purely from their own desires not the result of other people's coercion. Although there may be some people who gamble because they are forced by others but in the end it is only a small part of the majority of people who gamble on their own.

Saying they are carried away by others to gamble is just an excuse so that they can gamble but do not want to be considered that they are people who gamble because they do not want the negative stigma attached to them just because they gamble. So that by looking at this, actually the existence of streamers who do live gambling or not is not a reason because more people gamble based on their own desires.

That's true, now that you have said that. You made me remember how they're so active telling people to register under their link, they get commission and at the same time they're also getting a tracking link on how effective they are as an advertiser or ambassador of that casino.

I agree.

With the streams that I have seen, most of them are unreal. They're just putting some hype on the casino they advertise and that's what they want to show to their audience.

Undoubtedly things are moving in that direction, you can say that when a type of people is established that we follow and that are very famous, well, they move masses, if they tell you to do x thing, many will do it, so that is something that sometimes casinos take advantage of, however we as people, as players we must be aware that sometimes things go because of marketing and that marketing is what can lead to that, the addiction streamers, because it happens a lot like you say, the followers of those influencers become very focused on doing things the way they want them and that is what is dangerous.
